My Birthday - Part 2

I had my birthday dinner with Young Dreams @ Nando's Pavillion KL. I've had Nando's once and I was craving for its peri peri taste. So we decided to have dinner there. Also, out of coincidence that Ahui was in town for a training conference. Pity him to rush here though. He looked really tired. After dinner, we went for a movie - Tale of Despereaux. Very very cute mouse. Love the animation and graphics. Neways, I'm grateful for Young Dreams, who has never failed to remember my birthday :) I thank God for bringing us together and our friendship all these years. Here are some pictures to share. I got more pictures at Ah Hui's camera. Will update again. Stay tuned ^^

Iggy & Yvonne got me a very sweet gift. First of all, really nice wrapping paper :) The present is nothing fancy and nothing expensive (I think the frame didnt cost much), but I'll treasure it. You'll understand why later as you read along :) The gift is a picture we (Young Dreams) took recently in Miri, couple days before Chinese New Year. Being scattered around in Miri and KL all these years, we hardly could gather with all 6 of us together, let alone get a complete picture. This year, by God's grace, we had the chance to meet up and take a complete picture. Time flies and wow, its been 10 years already! Over the years, many things have changed - our life, our partners, our job, our 'size' (oops :P), our goals, our perspectives..... but some things remain the same. Our friendship didnt change, our determination to pursue our dreams didnt change and definitely our pose didnt change! Hahaha. 10 years already and still that 'cow' pose!! I wonder how we'd look like as we pose like this when we are seventy! Oh, special thanks for Yvonne for taking this lovely picture for us. This is precious. I've put it on my desk, where I spend 80% of my time at home. :)

Also later I realized, this picture is our last picture of Young Dreams as 6 singles. Few days after this picture was taken, Ruidi got married :) Congrats dude.

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'
