Merry Christmas with a fish


MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!

I didn't make cards for Christmas this year. Very sad but I don't feel like making one but this is my 10 minutes christmas card! :)

No we are not celebrating Christmas this year. We don't have a christmas tree up. We don't decorate our house with christmas sparkle. We don't have presents even for my little brother. We don't have the whole family together. We don't have Christmas spirit neither did we have a happy talk.

I'm sorry for all this thing that unfortunately will upset you on this very Christmas day. But don't worry. I've lighten a candle and sit at the top of our house in the silence of the night. Everyone has gone to the centre of the city, to churches and family's house to celebrate Christmas. My house out was quiet and peaceful.

Christmas is about giving and I'm giving my heart to those who needed. I've made 10 minutes card on the last day of school to say "Merry Christmas" I've spend time painting boxes to these great kids in Cambodia. I wish I could do more. I don't wish for a christmas present I wish for a miracle (... sorry can't tell you) I'm happy for all that I've been given. All the love, the care and the heart of all the people who have given me so much strength in mylife and it's time to thank you all for being there, for helping me, for cheering me up and for not giving up on me.

Nuff said with all that talk...

HAVE YOURSELF A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Paint on my leg



A drop of paint of my legs turned into this. I love the feeling of paint on my skin. It's so different and fun to be painted on. You completely changed into a super duper colourful person and awesomely excited. It's great fun!

I have time and energy to go swimming (yeshhh!) I read a book.
I clean my room.
I created a creative corner.
I cook.
I watch series.

Creative corner

Hello there!

First day of holiday, I woke up late like I want, had a shower, read a book, ate a bread roll and clean up. Confession: I'm surprised by just how many stuff I threw away; 3 bags! I'm a lazy person who chuck everything into my room and don't tidy up. But when I'm not in my room then I am very tidy. I guess cause when I know nobody is watching, I live in a rat place. haha


Anyway, my room is tidy now. Everything has a place and I created myself a little Art & Craft corner. I was going to wait until tomorrow morning to take a photo of it because the little table under my big one when pulls out will face to the open window. I found the cute table cloth downstair in a pile of old one that we don't use anymore. The patterns are so cute and very artsy so I thought I would use it to cover scratches and cut under. It has an official name now, not like before when I just use it - Art & Craft corner.

If you find yourself bored this holiday - clean up your room and make yourself a little room for Art!

I dreamed a dream...


I just thought I share some thoughts of my own here.

It's December and Christmas is coming. But, I have
no Christmas' spirit this year. I put on my little calendar book with "Christmas Card List" last wednesday. I haven't started yet and have no plan on starting this year.

My plan failed... I went Christmas shopping for Christmas presents to some kids in Cambodia. I had three boxes and I am going to put presents in for them. I've met the kids, played and had a wonderful wonderful time with them. It was the winter dance last night. Everyone seems to have fun, and my friends were asking me why didn't I go. I said - It's a waste of money! I saved that $20 to buy these presents for the little ones. I just think there has been to much for me and not much for them. I had $20. I can do something with it that would make the cuties happy and warm my heart up a little.So I went out this afternoon with Joshy and Eunice and we got baby stuff, soaps and toothbrushes. The box above is to a 4 years old girl - Ly Heang who is a little cambodian friend of mine.

I'm nervous sending these boxes to the kids. All I have for them is a little love that they need, a little thing that I can give and a box that I've painted.
Gosh I miss them!

It took my quite some time to pain this box cover. It actually has two layers or more. I painted the box planning to spread the colour and mixed them with next one so it looks streamy. And I failed completely. Came home today, I tried to fix it by re painting the yellow part to red and then cover the blue and purple with white this time. The dress original was white but somehow it got mixed up with the purple and started looking very crappy so I repainted it with blue. The leaves idea flew out of no where when I stuck the butterfly on it. The hair was yellow stream to red but now it is black again because I like it!

BUGS BUGS BUGS

Woa, such a long time with no post!
Today featuring BUGS BUGS BUGS photography course with Andrew.



I don't particular like bugs by the way, but they're part of nature :) Photos today taken using macro on a normal camera if you're wondering. It's quite good for a first timer using macro.

My reason for not writing the past weeks is because I was getting my examination results back. Some good some bad... and I was busy in Hanoi with family things. There is something else that I missed out on the Saturday I was in Hanoi. Megan is part of the International Choir of Ho Chi Minh city and they performed a Christmas Classic and Carols. I felt very bad not coming because I said to her I would but then realising that I had to catch a flight to Hanoi right away. I missed out on her performance the second time.

Where life has taken me
