Look what came in the mail!

Ok, this was send about 2 weeks ago but as usual, my updating is pretty slow.

Isn't the card cute???? The middle part is transparent and the picture of the kids is super cute. Not to mention, racially and politically correct as well.



This is my new favourite card, apart from my unglam photo.
Yay!

Art and craft

I love ART.
I used to love drawing, designing, cutting, pasting, planning, colouring and admiring my handiwork.

But as years go by, I find little time to do it or close to none at all because I need LOTS of time. When I start something, I pour my heart and soul into it and get so engrossed in a small little piece of drawing that it takes me hours to finish it. So, I don't start.

Which is why I haven't done anything "artsy fartsy" since...forever.

But when Jade came home with her short new bangs the night before she was flying back to China for holiday, I felt the urge to make her a card. It was to wish her bon voyage, to thank her for all the times she's been there for me as housemate and friend, to tell her I miss her, and to also pay homage to her super cute hairstyle she cut that day!

So there I was planning, drawing, cutting, colouring and writing all the details in. It took a few hours (as usual) but tadah!..below is the card I presented her with lots of love.

Its not particularly her style (cause she likes flowers, pastels and cutesy stuff), but its mine (black, bold and a tad edgy) and its made with lots of love.

So I hope she liked it. =)

Heavy weight


I try to do my bit here and there. Do little things that I can do.
Be a bit more helpful in other people's lives.

So once in a while when I'm over at Genetics to take my food, I'll help bring other people's food over too.

Bet you're a bit confused.

Well, I work in a building called Bio21 that is a good 5 mins walk away from the University. I work under the Genetics department which is situated in the University. The food I mean is food for my fruit flies!! They get cooked at the department so we have to trottle over whenever we order them to bring them back for our beloved flies. This food come in trays of 100 vials and I bring over mine and other people's too - as much as my hands can take. =D
