I have a dream

I have a dream!! (quote Mandela :p) I have always been a big dreamer (both day and night :p). If I had to describe myself, I would say: a small town girl with big dreams. I used to believe that music was biggest dream. I even came all the way to the big city to pursue it - not quite there yet, but believe me I'm getting there. But then lately, I realize I have a bigger vision/dream and its not music. Ya..... OUCH! after all the effort I have spent on music. No effort will be wasted, but I do regret I didnt started my other bigger dream earlier. Actually its not exactly a 'bigger' dream lah, I just realize I find it more important and more meaningful, that's all.

Ok, enough blabbering, get to the point!.. Haha. I have a dream that my cards can touch people. I have never been and probably never will be good in talking. Many a times I want to comfort / encourage people but when I open my mouth, all that comes out is 'blah' and nothing really useful. I tried working on it, but still doesnt work :( Therefore, I have a dream - that I can use my cards to care for people, starting with my circle of friends and family, then slowly into society. I hope my cards can encourage, comfort, inspire and motivate people. May my dream, in God's will, come true someday :)

Oh, by the way, the photo is an autograph by Tony Fernandes, the CEO of Airasia. I met him on the flight back from Singapore during one of my business trips. Thanks Tony :)

Everything starts from a dream. I am glad you are a dreamer and may God grant you the desires of your heart as promised in "Psalm 37:4
Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." Grab this one, God is a man of His Word. By the way, continue to dream...I haven't stop and today God just granted me one of my heart's desires. Hallelujah!! May God bless you more, my dear girl. I REALLY LOVE what you are doing.

Scrapbooking Stores in Malaysia

Last updated 14th March 2014 I first did this research back in 2008.  I was very surprised and excited to find scrapbooking and craft shops blooming in Malaysia. I'm still grateful that we Malaysians are able to have have access to buy these supplies today.  I hope we will be able to get more and more brands into Malaysia.  ^^ I don't mind sharing these info as I believe "Sharing is Caring" and I would love to see more Malaysian crafters coming out with lovely production to enhance our local crafting market.  Also, I hope you all would pass on the information to other fellow beginners ^^ Anyways, this is a recent update I did of the shops I know/found.  Don't think its complete though.  Some are shops that I've personally found and visited while others are from research and some are recommended by friends or readers of my blog.  And from my very own personal experience, some of my personal favourite shops (in no particular order) are as below: Scr

Unknown Song without a Title

Wrote this song somewhere end of February 2014, during Charge Up! camp, where I joined a song composing workshop.  It was a sweet and thoughtful gift from Ruidi & Sandy.  I was in between barista jobs and was struggling financially.  While they joined the camp, not only they thought of inviting me, including me in the fun, they offered to pay for my fee.  One of the most memorable gifts I've received for no reason.   During the workshop, we were given this exercise where we were shown the picture of a pruned tree.  We brainstormed words relating the picture and we were asked to compose a song from there.  The song below is my take on it, with much help from my facilitators, Ernest and Ming Li, on the lyrics and also the music. To have met and known them have been such a privilege, an honor and one of my greatest inspiration.   It's been a while, and I don't know why I chose to journal this here today.  Just felt like giving my unknown untitled song a home here :)  I'
