Happy Birthday Arissa:)

She was born on 020304. I specifically ask for the date of delivery..so it is easier to remember.. She wanted to become a doctor and said she will still help me with my art and craft during her spare time:)

The Goodness of Life

It's been a while since I cooked. Since the renovation took place..most of the time we eating out or tapow.. The exzos fan have not ready yet..so I could'nt cook anything heavy..so I decided i just fry egg and prepare egg sandwich for lunch.. nothing great but good to feel homey after quite sometimes:P

Still busy with craft thingy, have completed the task of making 40 hanging mobiles for wedding deco/doorgift. I am moving to create 20 wind chimes for Red Envelope Souvenir and Gift Shop in Ikano. All to be delivered tomorrow.

I am inspired  by this words of Holly Becker /decor8: There is still so much magic in the world and you don’t always have to actively do things or seek people out — they’ll often find YOU. The only thing that you must do is to go out there with an intention and circulate in the same circle as your leaders and role models, find your own voice, and they just may listen to that voice and call you an inspiration in return. Kismet. And if they never find you, then you’ll find others who will connect with your ideas and values and through all of these connections a great thing will happen. You’ll find yourself.

Hello There:)

Life back to normal....I am so relief... Renovation 98% completed...I start moving my precious rubbish into my new creative space..just need to do some arrangement, which can wait..as long as the space are ready...

waiting to be hung again on the wall

March gonna be  a busy month to me with Penang trip, ecodesign event, wedding and maybe bazaar...How busy it is, I am going to have fun and feel grateful with every involvement I made... I hope you feeling good and happy too:)

Arissa bought mosaic from etsy market, done it as a gift to me

I am open up myself to many possibilities..exploring the idea that I never thought I will do it before... surrender following the flow beyond reach...and life seem more meaningful with colours... I remember someone said isn't life should be an episodes with drama, tragedy, sadness, happiness etc? If the story line is same thing all the way to the end it will become monotonous and boring...

I am avoiding myself, being over worried but enjoying every moments and celebrate small little success and rewarding myself....Alhamdullilah God seems close and becomes my shadow..my best friend that never disappoint me. 

Graphics Go Green Eco Campaign @ The Weld

I am going to participate in Graphics Go Green Eco Campaign at Weld.

Date

14 to 20 March 2011 (art installation display) / 

19 March 2011 (all other programmes on this day)

Venue

Concourse, The Weld

They invited me to speak about my interest in book binding...whereby, there will be Q&A sessions on stage and booth display corner of my own.. I would love my student to contribute displaying their individual creation of book. Besides of creating awareness of book binding, I wish to promote them and their creation...

Check about ecodesign, it is beyond than recycled but taking a consideration of environmental impact of products, including the energy consumption throughout their entire life cycle, start from creating, producing even the end usage.

I am soooooo excited:)
