New Year Shout Out!!




HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009!!

Here's wishing everyone who drops by my blog a VERY HAPPY & BLESSED NEW YEAR! May the coming year be filled with more love than can be contained, more wealth than expected, great health to enjoy each day of the next 52 weeks & last but not least, great friends to spend it with (be it offline or online *winks*)

I've made some really nice online friends through this blog the past year and I really am thankful for that. In the coming days of 2009, I hope to meet & make more online friends from all over the world :) Cultural exchange is always a good thing :) Of course, I do hope to make more 'real-life' friends here too :P

Earlier when I flipped through my moleskine, I realized that I have achieved some of the items on my wishlist :) Quite a good feeling..knowing I managed to strike some items off my wishlist :) however, there's more to be achieved and more things to be added. Can't just settle, can I? hehe... Life goes on and as it does, we have to set our goals accordingly...

HAPPY NEW YEAR !

Short-talk

Manicures and pedicures are good way to see dead skin being slough off you.... I'm not a suitable candidate to do manicures since I love to keep my nails short but oh for the sake of doing it once, it does feel good :)

Something I heard today...

Joe : Erm, do you know what the number Zero (0) said to the number Eight (8)?

Raoul : .........?

Joe : Why so fat still want to wear belt?

Raoul : -__- '''


*well, I thought it was funny*

That was an excerpt from the Christmas play in church. But of course the play had more indepth meaning about Christ, believing in Him and self-acceptance but this was one of the jokes that I remembered :P

I will be taking a short sabbatical from posting until the 1st/2nd January (seems like I already was doing that, am I not? :P ). Might drop by to post short-talks once in a while from now till then :)

Stolen 'thunder'.... irreplaceable ...


Yesterday was hubby-to-be's birthday! We didn't get to celebrate with each other this year, rather we kinda 'celebrated' with all his relatives.... All were gathered to celebrate his aunt's birthday which is sometime early December. So basically, his 'thunder' was stolen on his birthday (exact day, somemore!)... ho-humph.... anyways.. at least he had a cake and birthday dinner on Friday by his friends and I :)


Well, it sounded as if it was a combined celebration only for us to find out that there wasn't that intention at all. I felt a bit sad for him as it felt that he was pushed aside on HIS birthday. He's a nice fellow with a good heart-lah, he was all jolly and ok (maybe cos he has received the present he wanted during the early part of the day... HAHAHA...)

All I can say is at least we had a nice dinner, birthday cake & movie-outing on Friday night with his friends. Ryan organized it and I'm the co-conspirator.. haha. We managed to keep it out of his radar only to have another friend, CJ, burst the surprise bubble.. Roy and I arrived at the destination early (to beat the jam) and I dragged him into a bookstore while waiting for the rest. He kept saying he's hungry and wants to have dinner and it wasn't easy keeping him in the bookstore at all (!). And then, CJ called... asking him about dinner and where's the rest.. I could hear from his response that he was a bit confused and took the phone from him... haha.

Anyways, CJ got a 'scolding' from me :P for spoiling the surprise.. Concluding this abruptly cos I'm lazy to blog on...

Will post up the pictures from his birthday in the next blog :)

Secret 'lil projects "status : to be revealed"


Gosh, it's a weekend and I have tons of report to write and complete to send out first thing Monday morning. Already I have delayed some as I really have no time. It is foolish to think that if I stayed in the office the whole day, I could complete all of it as there are endless phone calls to answer & follow-ups to do!


The wedding invites are finally completed. Time to post them out!

But oh, my hands are itching to make other, different cards :P Amidst this period where time is really precious, it will be trying to see how I can find time to make them. haha... I have plans too. Plans for a secret project for early next year since I will be on wedding leave :) I know... I'm supposed to spend time with future-hubby during then but he's supportive! My plan is to launch my 'lil project before we go for our honeymoon & ooh, I do hope to launch another 'lil secret project after that... too much of a teaser here?? haha.. But I'm sorry I won't reveal it till then. We just have to cross our fingers for it to materialize :)

I can't wait to launch my project! Well, I guess I have to get started bit by bit. If not, it will not happen!!

*so excited! really feel like launching into it now :P hehe..*

Post : Deleted

I deleted a post. If some of you popped by a few days ago, you would have noticed a post I wrote recently on why I was feeling depressed or sidelined. Well, I've taken it off the blog as I realize somethings I just want to keep nearer to me than to expose it to the whole wide world.

Things are still crazy around me. Work. Life. Traffic jams. Paper work.... oooh, how cumbersome they are :P Wedding preparations... haha.

Finally the cards can be considered ready and are currently being passed to friends, family & colleagues. I have called some, text-ed some and will be calling more to formally invite them once again & arrange to post to or meet up with them :)

Then it's make-up trial, choosing worship songs, confirming the speaker and lead worship leader, rehearsal arrangements, guest list, RSVP, ......

Thank God for strength. I need more. Been under the weather lately.

More Birthday Cards

I have so many friends with birthdays in October! Didn't realize it until I started making cards... hehe... I do enjoy making cards so it's a bonus, I guess :)

And I do think the cards has gotten nicer since I first started.... erm, right? (someone out there, please agree with me....hahahaha).

These are actually bigger than the one I made earlier.

Meeting them tomorrow night for dinner. Can't wait to give these to them!!!

They come in little 'jackets'


Words on the back deliberately covered :)


Another one, different in design and feel


Do you like the ribbons? I know I do...


Front & back. Cards tucked in their respective 'jackets'

Everytime I make something I feel is nice, I can't wait to give them away so that I can see if the recipient likes it *grins* So, you can imagine how I'm feeling now. Kinda weird, right? I like them very much I wanna keep them but I wanna give them away too....

something about midriffs....


Gosh. I feel so tired easily nowadays.


I attribute it to lack of exercise and 'old' age.... haha.. bag of ol' bones now. Though my heart still beats young and forever 2*. Go figure.... :P

Tried to make the effort to come back from work slightly earlier so that I may get the chance to jog around the park and do some stretching but the heavens has other plans for me *grins*

*Rain, rain, go away. Come again another day*

It's been pouring cats and dogs for close to 2 weeks now, every evening. I would come back and it'll be in vain anyways because I can't exercise. sigh...

Wait.. what? Indoor exercise? sigh... no fresh air = no enthusiasm = LAZY to exercise. Seriously, it's easier to get going out there in the open compared to in an enclosed environment.

Really.

I'm serious. Thinking of alternative on what to do already cos if it continues to rain like that.....hmmmm, I'm reluctant to accumulate fats around my midriff.

Hurrrrummmmpphhhh...

Burning Car

I saw a BMW caught on fire sometime last week on the highway. It was all smoky as we drove near and I was jokingly commenting that maybe a car caught on fire. As we drove past, we saw that it was a BMW..... what the? Branded cars get caught on fire too? (the engine was burning...like with flames and all)

... and it was raining. Kinda ironic.

Wanted to get away from the burning car as possible... well, what with my car running on petrol too, right? Couldn't manage to snap a picture of the whole incident. I think every one wanted to get out of the way as soon as they discover the real reason for all that smoke!

I don't think anyone wanted any chance of that happening to them too...

sigh.

Someone saw the burning bush, I saw the burning car.

Bad comparison, I know. Lame too... but I'm not really comparing. It's just a random comment.

Quotes I Love

The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things.

~ Henry Ward Beecher


Quirky

Even a nobody ...


.... can make a difference.


Even a nobody can make a change or bring change into another's life.

We don't have to be someone special or significant, tall and broad, intelligent and so 'there' in life to make an influence in another person's life. All we have to do is be there, and do what we have to do at that moment in time.

To offer what we have, which may or may not be much, but it is that which we offer that's going to make a difference.

Do you believe that?

Can I make a difference?


*** Lord, I want to be able to make a difference. But I need your help, your guidance. I need to make a conscious effort daily to watch my speech, to change my habits, to be a better person. The path will not be easy but Lord, I pray that you will be my reminder, my Counselor, my guidance ~ Amen.

Life as it is

Sometimes I stop and I marvel at the work of the hands of God. I truly do. Although I do get skeptical at times, but hey, I'm only human. I doubt too, so *sue* me.

Like how I left this current job to join another company only to leave it after a brief stint and then to come back to this job now. There is a reason it happened :)

God works in miraculous ways.

Sometimes we don't want to admit or believe it but it's true. I wasn't very happy when I was in my current job because there's no incentives but there's targets to meet. My time is not as flexible as my first job. Actually my first job may seem like a dream job to many, come to think of it, maybe I made the wrong step to resign then. But regrets, sigh, can't bring anything back. It's in the past now and I have to look forward cos life only goes on. It can't move backwards....

I searched and searched for jobs similar to the one I first had and landed in one that is in the generally same category but not exactly the same. I don't know if I accepted it because the interviewer pressured me to ( I don't like being pressured like that ) or because I just wanted a job with perks (like those) and just took it but deep in my heart, a gnawing feeling was there. From the moment I signed the letter of offer, it didn't feel right.

I didn't feel peace.

The most important thing that I should feel. The thing I prayed for and I didn't feel but I tried to reason myself.

Needless to say, I wasn't happy there. I don't know why but I generally feel that I don't belong there.

And then door opened up for me to go back to this job that I have now and after some discussion and negotiations, I decided that money isn't everything and it's better to earn a bit less but be a little happier. It wasn't easy arriving at that decision. Money, is afterall, very important especially at this age of impending recession. Cash is king. But cash can't buy me health and happiness.

I appreciate this job so much more now. My superior noted that I am cheerier even than before and he is happy to see me like that. I value what I'm doing more and am trying to be a better person to my colleagues, peers or subordinates.

I believe God does and lets things happen for a reason. If I didn't leave for the greener pasture, I wouldn't appreciate and realize what a good place I already am in and I truly thank HIM for this.

Nothing like a cuppa...

No matter how tiring or stressed up a day can be, there's nothing like a cuppa to soothe the soul :)

Heck, be glad it's not alcohol that's soothing me after a long day lah..... haha.

I'm not sure about you but I need my cuppa to kick-start my day :) I don't call myself *addicted* (liar! liar!) but I do yawn a lot if I don't get caffeine coursing through my veins in the morning..... I yawned so much once, my colleague suggested we go some place where we could get coffee right after our morning appointment :P

Fish Spa Outing

Have you ever had fish sucking and eating your feet? The norm is that ,we as humans, cook (or not *think sushi*) our fish and eat them but this time around, those little swimming flippers-thingy are actually devouring us (nope... not piranhas..)!

Introducing the garra rufa fishes :) They are basically combfishes and will eat dead skin cells leaving healthy skin to grow... In some places, they are also known as doctor fishes.

Well, I do think my feet felt smoother after dipping it in the aquarium full of garra rufa fishes. I do wonder, however, if that feeling was psychological.

It was really ticklish initially and I just couldn't stop giggling and laughing :P Couldn't even put my feet back into the aquarium but Lay Ling encouraged me (thanks!) and I thought I shouldn't waste my $$ and also an opportunity of trying this out with my friends.

We are all first-timers!

LRT can be a nightmare too ...

I'm sure some of you are aware of the Putra LRT failure last Wednesday. You know, I couldn't really be bothered to find out the real cause of it because we are always given lame excuses but it was really inconvenient.

At first it didn't occur to me what happened as I make my way to the station, there was no news of it on the radio anyway. Then there was a lot of people loitering around the station which made me think if something is happening that I am not aware of. There was also increased amount of people waiting at the taxi stops. As I walk nearer and nearer to the station, I just felt it all too queer.

Only did I reach the steps leading to the counter that I noticed long queues, rows and rows of people waiting to get in. From where I was standing, I could see passengers waiting on the upper deck too. I wondered how long they must have waited.

le Sigh.

I asked the lady standing next to me and she replied that the LRT malfunction or something. She's also not sure.

I stood there contemplating for a few moments and decided to make my way back to my car and drive to work, instead. Thank God for school holidays as the roads were clearer (not as jammed up as normal days) but I really hate it that even our 'most' reliable form of public transport also failed us. It cost me a blardy RM 12 to park near my office that day. And I didn't even park the whole day! Can you imagine that?

Maybe that's why some people would rather line up and wait for the train to come. It's afterall too expensive to drive and park in KL anyways.

I heard that those passengers that got stuck in the train near the Bangsar station actually pried the doors open and climbed up to the platform. Can't blame them. Can you imagine how hot and stuffy it would have been in the train filled with morning rushhour people??

Fans of Moleskines out there... I just found a place with even better discount than Kinokuniya -.-" and I barely made it out without clutching a few Moleskines with me. HAHA. It wasn't easy, ok? I had to literally drag my a*s out.

Okay. Back to the discount. 25% off Moleskines without conditions ( *in Kinokuniya, you have to buy something else to be entitled to the 20% off Moleskine) in CzipLee, Bangsar. I went there to do my 'assignment' and also to check up on the Moleskine stocks. Trying to kill two birds with one stone since I don't have much time to spend on the task at hand but I definitely know where I'm going to get my stock of Moleskines from now on *grins*

Truly

... if there is anyone out there who procrastinates like me, kindly let me know that I am not alone.

Perhaps it truly is real that there are many Albert Einsteins, Bruce Chatwins, Michaelangelos, Leonardos or Ernest Hemingways imploring us to discover them within ourselves but because of our procrastinating habits, we live one day at a time, dreaming to be like one of them but never taking action to materialize our dreams.

I know I have dreams. Sometimes too many, I think.

Yes, I may not be in my teens anymore but I am allowed to have dream-s. It is true as well that as we age and have more commitments (monetary-wise especially) that we move further and further away from our dreams and aspirations. We are afraid. Afraid of losing our financial means, afraid of stepping into the unknown but also, thinking there's always a tomorrow.


Well, tomorrow comes and goes and then comes another tomorrow but there's only so many 'tomorrows' in a persons' life, No? Are we going to fulfill our potential?

Well, I was hoping something else (LOL)...

Apparently, I'm a Banana. There's 2 meanings to this term, though. One being the one described below by Blogthings. Another being the definition of a Chinese (yes, I am Chinese and yellow-skinned) who only speaks English (the language of the Whites). Hence, B-A-N-A-N-A = yellow on the outside, white on the inside *grins*

But well, I'm not a total Banana..hehe. I am yellow on the outside but not totally white on the inside. I can converse and understand Mandarin, I just can't read and write it -.-" I know, I better pick it up :P




You Are a Banana



You are mellow, easy going, and a total softie on the inside.

People find it really easy to get along with you. You suit most tastes.

And while you're very sweet, you're not boring or ordinary.

You have an attraction to the exotic, and you could show up anywhere... doing almost anything!

You are spirited, energetic, and a total kick to be around.

You're also quite funny. Your sense of humor is on the goofy side, and it fits you well.



This kinda reminds me of Gwen Stefani's "Banana" song.. Can't remember the title, though :)

Was feeling rather under the weather the last week hence the lack of updates. Feeling turmoil in my mind and my heart. Oh why am I so easily influenced in the heart? My heart softens rather easily. Good sign actually (come to think of it). It only means I won't *suffer* as much when God is molding me. Molding a soft(er) clay most definitely is better (I won't say much easier) than molding a rock, hard one.. might break and that would be disastrous. Might take extra time too, much more time.

I promise to take pictures of my new crafts and post them up. Soon! I have been suffering from lack-of-creative-juices too.

On a side note, BF bought me a set of 36 Copic Ciao markers the other day and oh, I so LOVE them him!! *grins*


Thanks dear :) You know the key to my heart *winks*

I saw this guy in flesh!

Yeah, I know...nothing much to shout about. But still!! It's Dato' Tony Fernandes! I saw him in flesh. Ya ya.. I got no proof but I really did see him and he's a really nice guy. Very friendly. No airs. Hmmm..this is what 'famous' people should behave like.

*big grin*

Me like. but No. He didn't give me free flights, ok? So stop asking me that.

Unfortunately I didn't ask him if we could take a pic together. Cos I'm not a camwhore..haha. Nah, I'm not used to asking strangers if I can take pictures with them.

But for your benefit, this is what he looks like ->

Officially ....

..trying not to blog about my personal life here, well, especially the depressing bits. Unless if it's absolutely necessary. Which might happen occasionally *grins*

This should be a happy, chirpy blog where I have fun posting my anecdotes, craft projects, photographs (love taking..hope to be able to take better pics!) and bubbly happenings in my life.
