Back to my Hobby!

hello there!

so....................hey, have you had anything that caught ur attention and u're just dying to try it out?! I'd say..just give it a go man! I've always liked beads..fancy ones...simple ones..and that seeing how craftfully they are made into awesome looking pieces of dangly earrings..it's so cool..but phooey...so expensive. And the cheaper ones..erm...well, ok one thing they are cheap but not necessarily nice looking. It's like I can find everywhere..and what makes u wanna wear that pair of earrings? It's when the design is so unique you won't catch someone else having the same pair as urs! I so love to design earrings..but alas, I guess the few months following the 'zany period'..where I could make up to two pair of earrings...I sorta slacked. BEcause..I guess I had the toughest few months after that..Actually, come to think of it, it was sorta like an 'up and down' period for me lah. Totally no time to just think up of new designs and then creating it away! I bought a few packs of cheap beads...but ah..cheap doesn't mean ugly looking beads. It's also amazing to think that people are selling earrings or even necklaces off using these same beads...at such a high price. I understandlah..we also need to pay for their craftmanship. But what the heck......if you can make a simple one and then gradually make slightly more complicated ones..and u don't pay a cent for ur own workmanship, heck...why not right?!

And yeah..if u have a hobby shared by the likes of many other people too..and they're making money out of them too...don't be disheartened. For me, I am still excited thinking about redesigning the online gallery of my works.....in the first half of the year. I guess it's all about improvisations lah..and to create designs that are uniquely...ur own creations. So, I guess the key to surviving if you really take this up as a form of business venture...is to be 'different from the others'. And of coz...source out any contacts that can sell you the stuffs u need in bulk..at a much cheaper price. Heh....I love it when it comes to sussing out stuffs that are really affordable...like I recently discovered that I can get beads from singapore yahoo auctions. Gawd...7 packets of beads...selling at 2 bucks..as a whole! Fu yoh!!.....................Ahem..seriously, if you haven't caught the 'auction bug' from yahoo singapore..I suggest u get it now. From a bargain hunter like me..who selfishly still want brand new things..sold at a cheaper price..this is one good reliable source. Or you can try the other version of it...e bay singapore. They are available online and transactions are carried out fast and easy as most accept transfer of money online too.

Anyway..I am digressing. I am all excited yet again..to start a whole new collection...wheee!!!! And yeah...and I am SO gonna create another web layout for my collection...hrm...website creation..yet another hobby! Aaah!! what a way to finish off the year 2005..wooh!

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
