Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were. Cherie Carter-Scott
You can't connect the dots looking forward you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something: your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. Because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well worn path. SJ

I am in messy and busy mode.....inbetween consignment delivery, preparation for KLDW, workshop, an exciting graphic job, teaching offer decision, preparation for raya, fasting and exciting proposal.....pheeeewww
I am basically extremely busy at this moment:( You can tell by looking at the number of article published in my blog space here. The space & location for KL Design Week has been confirmed. I am excited and nervous at the same time....The show going to be held at Publika Solaris Dutamas on 16 to 25 September. Minus the festive holiday.. I have more less one week to prepare everything and I am progressing very very slow. Perhaps I am taking this a bit more serious because the high expectation and exposure are both from local & international.
For anyone that doesn't have any clue what is KLDW all about, here are some details:
“REACH FOR THE STARS”
The thrust of the KLDW festival idea is to produce a skilled, qualified, experienced creative human capital.

Perfectionism is simply putting a limit on your future. When you have an idea of perfect in your mind, you open the door to constantly comparing what you have now with what you want. That type of self criticism is significantly deterring John Eliot, Ph.D.
It was amazing looking at the final outcome where each of the employee has managed to come out with a different version using the same set of materials:) It was such a nice session and I am so happy looking at everyone diverting the energy focusing on their own cards within the time given. How great are the employer that have gave such session to add on spice and diverting from a norm routine job.

Busy Friday - going to have my first card making session today & I am so excited. This might something I could offer in the near future...
KL Design Week 2011 has giving me a bit of pressure to produce new products..and I am making a very slow progress. And most of my craft creation are all spontaneous without a proper plan.. I just do it.

1) Not overly done
2) Explore use of materials, cheaps stuff can look quite expensive
3) Avoid symmetrical, off balance is more balance on its own way.
4) Colour harmony
Been extremely busy, and I am glad I finally completed 2 of 3 graphic job from 2 new clients I had recently. When I mentioned that I gonna take a break during Ramadhan from bazaar and workshop, out of sudden graphic jobs are knocking at my door from 2 exciting clients that hard to resist.
Life been always great, I am glad to be be surrounded with people that always trust and believe in what I am doing. My old company offering my position back. The only thing I imagine was for sure I am not be able to pursue what I currently am doing especially my art & craft if ever I joined back.
the only thing that I miss of my old job was my spacious room:)
Those episode was over and I don't even want to consider the offer, eventhough the money side was so tempting. But I believe not all in life can be bought by money. I had moving forward and truly happy. Even now YES there are always obstacle from every angle but that doesn't affect me anymore. I do not bother if the
