Valentines 2009 (Part 1)

Love is in the air~~~......... In this lovey dovey season, even though I have no valentine this year to celebrate with, I feel it's still a great time to share our love. So I had this idea, where I handmade some cards, and played a little game with my church fellowship. This is a classic game to care for each other called the "little angel" game. The rules are, each person draws a name randomly and he shall need to send a card to the person whose name he drew.

Having to make quite a number, I ran out of idea and panic just a bit :p. Then Marlene to the rescue! She poslaju-ed 6 cards of 6 wonderful designs for us. Brothers and sisters went nuts over her cards. They were excited already just by the mention of her name. Haha. It went like this....

Me: "Guys, we need to thank Marlene for these cards, because she.... "
Pandan: (interrupting) " Waaa.............."
Me: (=.= and continuing.....) because she send these lovely cards for us"
Pandan: (continuing also....) "Waaaa.................."

So here goes the pictures of my cards. Thanks to Chia for taking them for me with his new toy - Nikon Dsmthing.... Aren't they fancy? If you wana see clearer pictures of the cards Marlene made, feel free to visit her blog :)

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'
