What....?

What is my life? What am I doing to it? What do I feel about it? What do I feel now?

*sigh* Why am I feeling as if there's no life at all? As if I'm not enjoying at all? As if I don't have a lot of friends? What am I doing here...alone in my room, facing non other than my PC, writing my blog...on Friday night? Surfing some forums.

I felt so alone and desperate now. I need to talk to someone. Why don't anyone call me? *sigh*

After a long break

Well, after a long break, my blog came back with a new look and this is my first entry ever since I changed a new skin for my blog.
Let's talk about my feeling today....it's 12.31am, I should be in bed but at the moment, I feel ugly, old and pathetic. Not just at the moment....it's almost everytime when I look in the mirror, I know mirror mirror on the wall is the most honest object in the world. I see myself looking old and more than 24. At 24, I should look like 20, then I would be the happiest. I shouldnt look old at 24 and should let anyone commentted me that I look older than my age. was it because of my damn curly hair that I permed 3 months ago? I guess that contributes a lot. I'd decided to rebond it before the new year comes.
Second, my complexion....looks dull and dark all the time. Where has my fair and spotless face gone? Since when I have those eye bags and dark circle around my eyes??? And since when that I start to feel unsastify seeing myself in the pictures?Hmm...since I permed my new curly hair? Disaster >_<
And I just got a mosquito bite on my face....you sick insect, thanks a lot for that. I'm going to kill you and your whole family for making a red bump on my face.
And there's no guy in my life right now. Joe? He's nowhere to be seen. Other than Joe there's no more guys in my life. Why is that so? Well, I don't mean to be a slut and get hook up with some guy other than Joe but at least some sparks in my life. I don't want to be like a married woman with no man approaching me like I'm a disease. This really decrease my self confidence.Well OK, we don't need men to be confident with ourselves. Yea, we don't need them. I just need to look pretty to have confidence. HAH!

You see, that's why I say I'm feeling pretty pathetic tonight. Better get some beauty sleeps and prepare to march to Unisem and continue my fucking work. Engineer...HAH!

Another Day of Art

I created a bunch of ATC and a pretty Butterfly Deco on a rainy Sunday. I started from 10am, soon after I wake up and finished at 5pm. Hoo hoo...it's not done in one whole stretch, I stopped for lunch and some dramas on TV in between. I'm no so fanatic..LOL...

Here's the outcome:

Antique Lace - for a LMAO in Nervousness



Vintage Children



Women with Attitude (Victorian Art)



Things with Wings (Flower Fairy) - Playing with fiber is FUN!



1. Floral in Purple - I really like this ATC. I'm going to keep it^_^
2. Lady of the Kingdom (Oriental Art) - I really like the outcome of this collage
3. Blush (Oriental Art)

Hello to my new life

Date : 14/February/2005
Ask Joe to hand my resume and cover letter to Unisem (M) Sdn. Bhd. Human Resource Department. He said after Chinese New Year, many will leave the company and there will be plenty of vacancy.

Date : 1/March/2005
After waiting for 2 long weeks. I finally received a call from Unisem, asking me to come for an interview on the next day. Wa wa wa wa wa~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And on this night, I have sleepless night because I was too worry about the interview.

Date : 2/March/2005
I lied to my boss, take half day and I went for the interview. I dressep up smartly and tried to look confident even though my hands were sweating like fountain.
There were 5 interviewees and I'm the only girl. >_< I was the last second who went into the room. Boy, the waiting was torturing.
After my interview session finished, I was asked to go for medical check up. WA WA WA WA WA
My percentage of success rose to almost 90%.
I had sleepless night on this day too.....

Date : 3/March/2005
Why is there no call from Unisem? Did I fail? Dif I fail?
My dad received a call from Unisem asking me to go for another check up. Hmm?? Then he called again to cancel the appointment. What happen? What happen?
And again....sleepless night.

Date : 4/March/2005
As usual, I went to work at the boring Eurollence and attended the damn boring ISO training course.
At 12.19pm, Mr. Rowan from Unisem called me. Asking me my availability to start work? And then he arranged 23rd of March for me to report to work at Unisem. WAAAAA WAAAA WAAAAAA WAAAAA
And at lunch time, I typed my resignation letter and at 6pm, I handed it to Mr.Ong. He was shocked and worried. We talked until 7pm. He offered 1.8K salary to me. Nah, too late boss. I had enough of the trash work here for a whole damn long year and a torturing 6 months at KL.

Date : 23/March/2005
Scenario still unknown but Unisem, here I come!

Another day of art~~

La la la.....Art makes my day happy. I'm glad it discover art....or maybe art discovered me. March is a month full of art stuff.
Here's some of the ATCs that I made for the trade in MSN groups. Some of them were already traded. I do mainly collaging. I like collage. But I did a few water colour series and crayon series that I still havent scan.

Chinese New Year Theme ATC
Simple but has the touch of Chinese feeling in this ATC. Both are already traded. I made them during the Chinese New Year last month.


Chinese Zodiac ATC
Made from playing cards, greeting cards and wrapping papers. This is my first attempt of making ATC using playing cards and semi background. Not bad but I don't really like the look of it looking so obvious like a the back of a playing cards. But I want to make a series of 12 Chinese Zodiac for my own collection so this two are not for trade. And the Dragon ATC that use feather turns out to be really a good idea after all. I'm collecting more feathers.^_^

-Horse- -Dragon-

Direction
I used wrapping paper as background, yarn for the direction and printed words on Joss Papers.


Two of Heart
Hmm...I don't really like this. Messy and the colour don't blend with each other very well.



Asian Theme ATC
I'm using a very pretty wrapping paper that has a lot of pretty oriental prints and backgrounds. These Chinese characters are also from a wrapping paper. And in the middle is a little coin from Malaysia. Fisrt two series is the front and back of a 5 cents coin and the last two is the front and back of a 1 cent coint. Maybe I'll make more cards like this for trade because people are usually very attracted with Asian type of ATC and also foreign coins. ^_^

Nervousness February LMAO

I joined several Nervousness LMAO for the month of February. All of them are very interesting theme. I completed two and mailed out on 14th/February (Valentine's Day>_<)

Red Theme ATC (Chinese New Year)
made those from Ang Pow (red money envelopes) and Chinese New Year greeting cards.


Karma ATC
I had no idea at all on how to come out with a Karma Theme ATC. But at last, here they are.


I'm going to work on two more ATC LMAO , Kimono and Postage ATC(which I host at the main site). And I'm going to make more ATC to trade. I met with some really cool ATC artist from some MSN groups. I was so busy making ATC for NNess swap and I have totally neglect the other trade....and also this poor blog which I only update today since I first create it last few weeks ago. Hopefully I will meet with more superb artist to trade ATC with me after I publish my ATC (traded and to trade) in this blog. And this is also a personal art blog for me to keep track of all the ATC that I'd made.

And yes, I was finally a full member of Nervousness. My username is moonlight

ATC for Trade (Herbs and Gothic Children series)

I made another 2 set of ATC series to trade.

Herbs (Thyme, Tea Tree Oil, Rosemary, Marigold and Green Tea)



Gothic Children (Sin, Posey & Damien)


All 8 ATCs are for trade.

Artist Trading Card

What is Artist Trading Card?
Artist Trading Card is also known as ATC. Just like any baseball or Pokemon trading cards, they are handmade artistic collectible cards. There are so many art techniques in creating an ATC, theme and material are unlimited but the only restriction that we have to follow is the dimension of the card : 2.5" X 3.5" or 64mm X 89mm.
The artist will usually sign their name, title of the ATC, date created and other info on the back of the card. Here's a very good site if you want to know more about ATC. --> Art in your Pocket : ATCs

And here's some of the ATC that I made for Nervousness LMAO (Land Mail Art Object - Project from Nervousness). I did not scan my first ATC attempt, which was quite a failure but I did send them out anyway. But as times goes by, I think I kinda improve and produce quite a piece of art...heh heh. Both set were made in January. Let me know what you think ^_^

Cross Stitch ATC (First time hosting a LMAO)



January Swap for Newbie

Handmade Postcard

Here's my first handmade postcard. I make them like deco....and they turn out to be very nice postcard size deco...and then those were my first handmade postie^_^ Techniques are collage, glitters and the material are from magazine pages. I made them while I was staying alone at KL (during the 6 months job training). That's when I discover www.nervousness.org


I keep those posties for my own and they are not for trade.



Not bad huh ^_^
I am doing some handmade postcard exchange with some Nervousnesser too. I'm eager to see other people's work.

My Art Blog

I'm going to make this work!

This blog is to record all my findings and art discovery.



I have been interested in art since I was a child. I attend drawing classes and had always been patient to produce somehow a neat masterpiece. I really miss my childhood times where I had a lot of time and leasure to do all my doodles and drawings.

There's a lot of things that I consider as an art. For instance, my stamps collection is a form of art. The way I see every pieces as a work of art. I guess that's what attract me in this hobbies for years. And now I'd discover a new hobby...expanding art on the world wide web. It's a rediculous massive bunch of artist out there. You don't need to be well know or sell your masterpiece to be label as an artist. I call myself an artist because I produce art. Yes, the junk I did was consider art! ^_^ Yes, even a scribble, is a form of art...a way of expression.



Some of the interesting link I found online (which kept me hooked for hours, I mean, for dayssss, weekssss)

• Nervousness - An international forum for all artist and amateur artist like me around the globe to gather together and work at thousands of projects and trades. This is where I learn almost everything and met with good worldwide artist. I also participant in a handful of Land Mail Art Objects (LMAO) there.
  
  
• Art in your Pocket: ATC - Tells you what is an ATC and explain all the technique used in making ATC
• Lisa Vollrath - She wrote a lot of articles of 'How-To's and projects. Really intersting. Sort of like a one stop for all you need to know. There's even a paper craft glossary.
  
  
• Tag Art - Look at those amazing handmade tags/bookmarks. Amazing!
• Origami Doll - Yay! I finally know how to fold a kimono origami^_^
• Mirkwood Designs - Loads of templates. Really useful!
• Stampin' Art - Rubber stamp art. Expensive but pretty>_<

I guess, this should be enough for the introduction for my first art blog entry. I'll post with my art work and art experiments.



Tata for now~~~~
