2009.........

With just a blink, tomorrow will be the last day of 2009. Wow...time really flies. I have my rest day today..and ended up wasted almost a day stoning and watching 'friends'. As the evening drew near and the construction noise starts to fade away, I figured I need to quiet down too and review my life in 2009. Tomorrow will be a busy day with work, so I don't think I'll have time for 'quietness'. So, with my cup of joy tea, I meditated today. However, honestly, i feel the distance as if my prayer just bounce off the ceiling... you know, one of those days where you pray hard and feels nothing. Then half way through, you'll wonder "is He listening to me? should I go on?" Oh well, its ok I guess, because God is there and loves me no matter I feel it or not. Its a fact, not a feeling :)

Neways, as I think back to 2009, no doubt I find ups and downs, loneliness and happenings, heartbreaks and comforts, success and failures, satisfactions and disappointments etc....But throughout the year, I find that God leads, guides and truly cares what is happening to me. One of the most thankful thing that happened to me would be Starbucks. I've learnt to experience him most through Starbucks in the most little things.

In 2010, my life will go through another turning point as I move back to Miri. Whether its my career or my r.ship life, I'm unsure how the future will be. But I'm sure, God will continue to lead. I guess its another point in life I have to learn to let go and let God and choose to trust him , just like how I did when I decided to join Starbucks ^^. I never knew what would happen when I choose to make that turn, but turns out Starbucks has been the best damn thing that ever happened to me. I still can't believe I could actually live my life like this - doing what I love everyday~

Ok, long winded enough. To sum up, I'm gonna bring this scripture with me into 2010:
Trust GOD from the bottom of your heart;don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for GOD's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;he's the one who will keep you on track. Prov 3:5-6 (Msg)

Have a blessed new year :)

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 belo...

The Power of Positive Thinking

WARNING: This is a Looooooong Post :P I'm reading a book titled "The Power of Positive Thinking" by Norman Vincent Peale. Actually this is a book i bought on 20th July, 2002 and didn't finish it for some reasons that I don't remember. Then lately, out of the blue, I took it out to read it all over again, hopefully being able to finish it this time :P Neways, that's the history of the book and me. I'm at chapter 2 now and I came across a very unique practice of a man. It reads: It is possible, even in the midst of your daily work, to drive confident thoughts into consciousness. Let me tell you about one man who did so by the use of a unique method. One icy winter morning he called for me at a hotel in a Midwestern city to take me about thirty-five miles to another town to fill a lecture engagement. We got into his car and started off at a rather high rate of speed on the slippery road. He was going a little faster than I thought reasonable, and I reminded h...

Taiwan (Taipei) Trip 2013

We had a visit to Taipei September 2013, mainly to visit an old friend of my dad, Uncle Nam Boo and his wife.  It was a first time to Taiwan for all of us (mum, dad, sis and me).  Since Aunty Xiao Lan is a local, they KNOW where to bring us, for beautiful places and good food.  They even shared their home with us so we didn't have to worry about accomodation and drove us almost EVERYWHERE, so we didn't have to worry about transport.  Also they applied leave from work so they could bring us around.  We were really touched by their gestures and also we enjoyed spending time with them.  It was such an enjoyable and memorable trip that we all look forward to visit Taiwan again.     I compiled our travel pictures into 2 photobooks (as slides below) and plan to give them one set a thank you gift.  I designed the photobook using Photobook Malaysia  and the Snapshot ready template.  First thought of sharing as pictures, but the...
