Learning by yourself following online tutorials are not as easy as I thought. I tried to learn crochet a year ago and I stop halfway, gave away the ball of yarns and hook to my friend (who did not learn it either). Somehow I got the urge and sudden determination to grasp this challenging (and addictive?) craft once again. So I get myself a new golden hook (wow!) and a ball of high quality yarn (RM16/ball!!). A high quality yarn is worth buying because the yarn will not become 'furry' and loosen and it is so much easier to handle compare to the <a href="http://moon-shines.blogspot.com/2009/03/yarns-and-colours.html">cheap yarns</a> I bought last time (hehe...I try to blame it on the yarn).<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr5lUNMY1_9IeNFjraht66A_RcAl_RKxvJGc-MUTZC2GIars1YFUFcI-7AH3eqR5MsVFd9KlBEA99jrUoeSqy3DYnLcNau-S0J4CXFbk1mfmW7z9jagHPPqZoX78FY4ljMGFl6IA/s1600/DSC_0025.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr5lUNMY1_9IeNFjraht66A_RcAl_RKxvJGc-MUTZC2GIars1YFUFcI-7AH3eqR5MsVFd9KlBEA99jrUoeSqy3DYnLcNau-S0J4CXFbk1mfmW7z9jagHPPqZoX78FY4ljMGFl6IA/s400/DSC_0025.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566804198465279538" border="0" /></a><br />Look, I made some round thing!

Those that doesn't know, Postcrossing is a postcard exchange community website with a system that make sure everyone gets a card from everywhere in the world, from strangers who send beautiful postcards. The magic of snail mail is never lost with Postcrossing. I have been collecting postcards for many years ever since, somehow stopped (due to work, etc etc) and recently I recommended my friend to this site and then I began to start sending and receive postcards again. But then, I got bored of our dull Malaysia postcards (we only have the Yacine cards...) and I wonder, can I make my own cards?<br />Of course, with my crafty fingers, I attempted a few art cards before:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kii/sets/72157612513039510/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/kii/sets/72157612513039510/</a><br /><br />But ever since I gotten my hands on plastic toy and vintage cameras, I started to venture into the magical world of photography. Still an amateur, but then I wonder, what if I turn some of my favourite shots into postcards, slap on a stamp and send across the ocean? Will people like them as much as I do?<br /><br />And then I stumbled on <a href="http://www.eoe.com.my/">EOE.com</a>, an online printing site. Awesome! The internet is really awesome, I can now print them without leaving my house and go search for photo printing shop. And EOE's price is very reasonable too, 30sen for 4R and 50sen for 5R. Hey, with the money today, we can't do much with a few sens. Store bought postcards are now priced at RM1! (used to be just 50sen....).

Refer the below chart for better understanding.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK2icc6uYvro2nWd8-zzLf5DT8NV00AwW5nBfoKzdEVBtqS1_AoMM4DVS-9pdvjQ_CpRJOrQU_HFPLxzmbhCK-dnAEKtPOsgmQGY-0uyynNVDSWCFdYHNRmeOF9dFMP_ucPHLrXg/s1600/fatquarters.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 333px; height: 379px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK2icc6uYvro2nWd8-zzLf5DT8NV00AwW5nBfoKzdEVBtqS1_AoMM4DVS-9pdvjQ_CpRJOrQU_HFPLxzmbhCK-dnAEKtPOsgmQGY-0uyynNVDSWCFdYHNRmeOF9dFMP_ucPHLrXg/s400/fatquarters.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463615295832529170" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">Fabric international measurement</span><br /></div><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Where can I buy Japanese cotton and what is the standard price for Japanese cotton?</span><br />If you google Japanese cotton, you will find a lot of shops selling those beautiful fabric.<br />And the standard price is around : USD3-5 for one fat quarter.<br />You can try to find for more variety and price range at <a href="http://www.etsy.com">Etsy</a> and <a href="http://www.ebay.com">Ebay</a>.<br />You can also buy them from several Chinese website (from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong) but you will need a Chinese bank to deal with them and they usually do not accept Paypal payment. Unless you know a middle person who can order those fabric for you. A middle person is willing to do a transaction on your behalf by charging a commission fees of 10-20%<br />Easier choice is buy from my local blogshop. Here's my shop : <a href="http://fabricfanatics.blogspot.com">http://fabricfanatics.blogspot.com</a><br />I accept local bank transfer and also Paypal (credit card).<br /><br />Price for authentic Japanese cotton are more expensive than normal cotton fabric because of the cute and rare printed design on cotton and linen material.<br />I have check at our local largest fabric shop Kamdar and Nagoya, but they do have a very limited choice of Japanese fabric, price at minimum RM18/meter. Design are mainly floral, very similar to normal cotton fabric. I could not find any cute or '<a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://www.squidoo.com/zakka">zakka</a>' design fabric.<br />If you are staying around Klang Valley, you can also stop by Craft World at SS2, they are selling a looooot of beautiful imported cotton and linen fabric, English, American and Japanese fabric. And their price starts from RM17 per fat quarter. Cut from bolt (what is bolt? refer pic below) is a minimum 0.5 yard.<br /><br />In Malaysia, so far, I only found cute printed Japanese fabric at craft shop (Craft World) and other blogshop selling them. But unfortunately, many of the blogshops are Work At Home Moms (WAHMs) who does not play by the rules and sell them for overly cheap. Yayyy for the buyers but sad for other sellers who are trying to stay on the business ethic side by maintaining the standard price. But buyers be cautious, some might not be authentic Japanese fabric.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">What is the difference between cotton and linen fabric?</span><br />As you can from the picture below, linen has rough grain and texture. It is also thicker (medium to heavyweight fabric). Linen is not suitable for making clothes but most suitable for making bag because of the sturdy thickness, it does not need to add another layer of inner lining fabric for protection. Other ideas on using linen fabric : purse, wallet, apron, table cloth, home decor craft, pencil case, laptop casing, tote, brooch, hairpin.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh85UsPewlOLgplLywzrLK1iiC9W6hCv-KPrPnK94NDABd_DCTwyLy4tj6-Xy6O-00yzYddIGhcjhJaRhpfsTEWC1nD2WkkfzwJpUMmN8PTxHjmtVIk78VM3ZeEefpGxdUjlx_7eA/s1600/P1010102.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh85UsPewlOLgplLywzrLK1iiC9W6hCv-KPrPnK94NDABd_DCTwyLy4tj6-Xy6O-00yzYddIGhcjhJaRhpfsTEWC1nD2WkkfzwJpUMmN8PTxHjmtVIk78VM3ZeEefpGxdUjlx_7eA/s400/P1010102.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463614198585240674" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9wGLM2iEvQkBfP9M4t8b9A0Im25nISbq29Sa14xzpQDTLXMecPL0USce-yYoMVoLycFdhTrhNFf8Pk5OWy5RNqpOviD1-C_byr9bnxxSiXqW3FnuDiX92bx5pfA9nO1BLnjHDqw/s1600/P1010100.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9wGLM2iEvQkBfP9M4t8b9A0Im25nISbq29Sa14xzpQDTLXMecPL0USce-yYoMVoLycFdhTrhNFf8Pk5OWy5RNqpOviD1-C_byr9bnxxSiXqW3FnuDiX92bx5pfA9nO1BLnjHDqw/s400/P1010100.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463614191745262418" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">Printed Linen</span><br /><br /><br /></div>100% cotton is very soft and lightweight fabric, suitable for almost all sorts of fabric craft.

I am not sure why this fun art exchange activity is not popular among the artists and designers in Malaysia.<br /><br />For those who is still wondering what is ATC, here is the definition I found from Wikipedia.<br /><b></b><blockquote style="font-style: italic;"><b><br />Artist Trading Cards</b> (or ATCs) are miniature works of art about the same size as modern <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_cards" title="Baseball cards" class="mw-redirect">baseball cards</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards#cite_note-0"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></a></sup> or 2 ½ X 3 ½ inches (6cm X 9cm),<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards#cite_note-1"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></a></sup> small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards#cite_note-2"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a></sup> The ATC movement developed out of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_art" title="Mail art">mail art</a> movement and has its origins in Switzerland.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards#cite_note-3"><span>[</span>4<span>]</span></a></sup> Cards are produced in various media, including dry media (pencils, pens, markers, etc), wet media (watercolor, acrylic paints, etc), paper media (in the form of collage, papercuts, found objects, etc). The cards are usually traded or exchanged rather than sold.</blockquote><br />Recently my art nerves suddenly surfaces and I'd been digging back some of my ATCs. Most of them are dated in 2005. wow....5 years ago. Wow...I can't believe it! 5 years. and I'd not been creating anything (except the <a href="http://moon-shines.blogspot.com/2009/05/eternity.html">two bird illustrations and mixed media</a>). Shame on me :( I'd been riding on the craft horses and forgotten about the smell of acrylic paints, sticky fingers with glues, messy table full with papers and ephemeras.<br />This year my one and only resolution is create more art.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgdMojtgFxV0LsfO6CeedcmgDJtZfJXHV-BBVE0AVjTAo7dtxzeEsgK9aLi3-6h_dTzDKdcMzuIm1KbPGNvj2JbuysFd4QpBInb03FdW384DnsJgFDU4cuNK-vx7mS8lgNRk8alg/s1600-h/ATC3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 336px; height: 454px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgdMojtgFxV0LsfO6CeedcmgDJtZfJXHV-BBVE0AVjTAo7dtxzeEsgK9aLi3-6h_dTzDKdcMzuIm1KbPGNvj2JbuysFd4QpBInb03FdW384DnsJgFDU4cuNK-vx7mS8lgNRk8alg/s400/ATC3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433629664119135362" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHWW9PP54FxlOMzMxAY_YDAnwsfAAQ6TPuVzhFqmTV5Q8NadG1xebTp4QTvgaufOzKW3SZEWMEr2_RsJUetmLdMd1cIPOwJY3ubH6KFDTFl97Ry5LSuPDs3Pfa-jLnCl6UtvUGEw/s1600-h/ATC2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 343px; height: 454px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHWW9PP54FxlOMzMxAY_YDAnwsfAAQ6TPuVzhFqmTV5Q8NadG1xebTp4QTvgaufOzKW3SZEWMEr2_RsJUetmLdMd1cIPOwJY3ubH6KFDTFl97Ry5LSuPDs3Pfa-jLnCl6UtvUGEw/s400/ATC2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433629288311401634" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCdTe-InhXWWnThTlL9l6758HfOslRkyE5J-r1bfOhOBLQrXQLEkfJvqedr5JrDxVo5Fn-RUANY7v9rSS3oK5_uuZ8SbM3qok_oBT9a9wSH7XkLnWaJqmPAcepITpBcfggFIb1ig/s1600-h/ATC1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 331px; height: 454px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCdTe-InhXWWnThTlL9l6758HfOslRkyE5J-r1bfOhOBLQrXQLEkfJvqedr5JrDxVo5Fn-RUANY7v9rSS3oK5_uuZ8SbM3qok_oBT9a9wSH7XkLnWaJqmPAcepITpBcfggFIb1ig/s400/ATC1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433627649174318930" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTGZVwYP067-ei5E6cfr8X9beLxVgDs861a0Dsi7tA3oJI3-hgdMCYBkbdvfISGG_527L4Px77ZwNGTDZ7KuOXsGDiTYfduGxpgWJ8AK8WXTYAQYGA2JtnaH7bsa8K22v02fNm6Q/s1600-h/ATC4.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 334px; height: 454px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTGZVwYP067-ei5E6cfr8X9beLxVgDs861a0Dsi7tA3oJI3-hgdMCYBkbdvfISGG_527L4Px77ZwNGTDZ7KuOXsGDiTYfduGxpgWJ8AK8WXTYAQYGA2JtnaH7bsa8K22v02fNm6Q/s400/ATC4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433630329674505970" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">ATCs I created, mainly collage and rubber stamping.</span></span><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="http://Atom_Feed_URL" />

What is ATC? Read it <a href="http://www.cedarseed.com/air/atc.html">here</a> : very thorough introduction to ATC.<br /><br />Here are some of my previous ATC, made by me, for my own pleasure and collection. Back in my hometown, I have a few more dozens of ATC sent to me from other artist.

All those papers are washi chiyogami paper imported from Japan. It is very difficult to find in Malaysia, even though we can find them in some craft shop but is very very expensive, selling for ~RM8 per piece of A4 size. Usually I got them from Etsy and Ebay, best place to look for rare craft material. Malaysia still lack of craft material and supplies.<br /><br />So, I spent 5-6 hours making them, while watching drama (A Chip of the Old Block-super super funny TVB drama), my speed was slow by half if I were crafting while watching something on the laptop but that's how I like to work. :p<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW-BjrmS8ChsGdReISR5NnwoU4u3yk9T-r2u3L81tlyN-KNXxcikK095MDuIGnzZxVr5TQQHt8zXotJBKurg1Y1pJKwUS4N0rkVhFoCx91TfdUFFfkQ5W27hoGqSlQXo5qlob-xQ/s1600-h/P1000631.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW-BjrmS8ChsGdReISR5NnwoU4u3yk9T-r2u3L81tlyN-KNXxcikK095MDuIGnzZxVr5TQQHt8zXotJBKurg1Y1pJKwUS4N0rkVhFoCx91TfdUFFfkQ5W27hoGqSlQXo5qlob-xQ/s400/P1000631.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430290576512112882" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyvYdYXV6UMNQ7rz2cbVc0JQVnj6q9sfZjR7RW8eGBYAt76UrMwG_JPNwFc-EodP6hrH2pV7EZ2bCNi-gyL5M3xTzscRKuvOtZ80LL1YejN1sp-r8qw9VP2LU1C8ULz4NRt2Rfzg/s1600-h/P1000633.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyvYdYXV6UMNQ7rz2cbVc0JQVnj6q9sfZjR7RW8eGBYAt76UrMwG_JPNwFc-EodP6hrH2pV7EZ2bCNi-gyL5M3xTzscRKuvOtZ80LL1YejN1sp-r8qw9VP2LU1C8ULz4NRt2Rfzg/s400/P1000633.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430290591252829634" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >I really love washi paper.</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> They are so beautiful.</span></span><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii6nnCmMUS2qBfKaFcceaTvrixoPHzt5Stt6E0NzEEv8-dQ-NReAfsyGqmYpZPy1cO-__rSKXJSCj_fQUA5C8jpCTeqQ32u5x5RXCZm5E02rclOziz_HYS5aFmT9uGDq2CPqDqpw/s1600-h/P1000632.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii6nnCmMUS2qBfKaFcceaTvrixoPHzt5Stt6E0NzEEv8-dQ-NReAfsyGqmYpZPy1cO-__rSKXJSCj_fQUA5C8jpCTeqQ32u5x5RXCZm5E02rclOziz_HYS5aFmT9uGDq2CPqDqpw/s400/P1000632.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430290581324088098" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Kimono....</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Aiks...no head??</span></span><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkoT2HiPDeqekt8amNMWaD7omF3QBWMPquXJ6SEXVfbBLanb_M1ooYzPWr4j7jlhZN7Vui4yf8q0ay-q2cUO0NXLBKqZL6zt65jIc5WFtiOEEvfoEtzYcY9cqDC9UNz5QLGUDWSA/s1600-h/P1000637.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkoT2HiPDeqekt8amNMWaD7omF3QBWMPquXJ6SEXVfbBLanb_M1ooYzPWr4j7jlhZN7Vui4yf8q0ay-q2cUO0NXLBKqZL6zt65jIc5WFtiOEEvfoEtzYcY9cqDC9UNz5QLGUDWSA/s400/P1000637.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430290605584604834" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6PAeYF8mVXl6ohPTlyilvw4EYmrO4R3CZHeGHpqLfVs6X5R3DBcFvVGSj7FmVkScwTZXEuKFmbSI2Ax_h_9k9IVUfqZAiU3MAXj-_0vM9FnHJC4KbZRaIxEmUM12jsd1AbxEf1w/s1600-h/P1000635.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6PAeYF8mVXl6ohPTlyilvw4EYmrO4R3CZHeGHpqLfVs6X5R3DBcFvVGSj7FmVkScwTZXEuKFmbSI2Ax_h_9k9IVUfqZAiU3MAXj-_0vM9FnHJC4KbZRaIxEmUM12jsd1AbxEf1w/s400/P1000635.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430290594278406242" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Here they are, all pretty with yukata and hair bow, ready to go to their proud owner in the USA.</span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Hope you all will have a fun time there and meet great children!!</span></span><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">If you like to have one, I am selling them for RM5 each.<br />But need to re-stock my washi paper now.<br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="http://Atom_Feed_URL" />

Actually it is a Santa Xmas swap hosted by <a href="http://agnes1409.blogspot.com/">Agnes</a>. My partners sent on time but those suprise swap packages were sent to my house in Ipoh. I couldn't go back to unwrap them until the New Year weekend. Hence, the late post on what I got from my swap partner..sorry.

So, please check out <a href="http://www.kiireyblog.com/">www.kiireyblog.com</a>, comment, subscribe, follow or bookmark the blog. I spent many many hours and late nights tweaking the codes and setting. It's kinda torture for someone clueless about web programming like me and I don't have much extra bucks for hiring a designer or programmer. With this blog, maybe I will blog less here (not that I write a lot anyway). But after I changed job(last month), I already have more time to spend on the things that I like to do so hopefully I could write more.<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And here are some things that I sent out for <a href="http://agnes1409.blogspot.com/2009/09/santa-claus-is-coming-to-town.html">Agnes's Xmas Swap</a>, I got 2 swap partners and hope they like everything :) I even gave out my best seller fabric.<br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;">They already received my swaps, so I will show them off here. I will post what I received soon. Both packages from my swap partners are still at my Ipoh home, waiting for me to unwrap. Can't wait Can't wait. And they will be my New Year gifts instead of Xmas gifts.<br />Hmm...I am thinking of hosting a Pink theme swap for Valentine's Day. Anyone interested? Hmm...maybe not because CNY falls on V-day, everyone will be too busy. :/<br /></div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimyz75VDQHol4qcSxHZGFztbtphvCU-mzwqdjc4Ry4qMMxnb7xAp0T2y3KXgJ-E3UqZcuUP9J-tBGeqqBB1vAk9ck5xpxETlBhhlKknloM4p6XlZ8bvzuk3PVQ2YBt4n0yE6pwbg/s1600-h/P1000485.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimyz75VDQHol4qcSxHZGFztbtphvCU-mzwqdjc4Ry4qMMxnb7xAp0T2y3KXgJ-E3UqZcuUP9J-tBGeqqBB1vAk9ck5xpxETlBhhlKknloM4p6XlZ8bvzuk3PVQ2YBt4n0yE6pwbg/s400/P1000485.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421362677011377234" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Ho Ho Ho~~~</span></span><br /></div><br />I will be going to Phuket next month, any suggestion for must-see, must-go place?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="http://Atom_Feed_URL" />

I will feature one local and one international artist/crafter/designer (from Malaysia) everyweek, host giveaways and swaps, annouce giveaways from other blogs/shops, giving tips on creative indie business, tutorials and many more gift ideas and beautiful inspirations.

I haven't read this book but I'd already inspired by the book cover and the idea. Most probably will grab this from Amazon.<br /></li><li>Go to downtown and take more pictures with my UWS, LC-A and Smena 8m. (total I have 5 cameras now, including 2 digital cams). Places in mind are Sekinchan, Kuala Selangor and...hmm..any other good suggestion. Will be a great source of inspiration for my journal and blog too.<br /></li><li>Continue to work on <a href="http://www.kiirey.com/">Kiirey</a>.</li><li>And not forgetting start a new job.</li><li>Blog more...yeah, right.</li><li>Stop playing facebook games.....yeah, right.</li></ol>Ho boy, this sound so much like a year end resolution.<br />I just love writing list.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="http://Atom_Feed_URL" />

During his owner's life Hachikō saw him off from the front door and greeted him at the end of the day at the nearby <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibuya_Station" title="Shibuya Station">Shibuya Station</a>. The pair continued their daily routine until May 1925, when Professor Ueno did not return on the usual train one evening. The professor had suffered a stroke at the university that day. He died and never returned to the train station where his friend was waiting. <p>Hachikō was given away after his master's death, but he routinely escaped, showing up again and again at his old home. Eventually, Hachikō apparently realized that Professor Ueno no longer lived at the house. So he went to look for his master at the train station where he had accompanied him so many times before. Each day, Hachikō waited for Professor Ueno to return. And each day he did not see his friend among the commuters at the station.</p> <p>The permanent fixture at the train station that was Hachikō attracted the attention of other commuters. Many of the people who frequented the Shibuya train station had seen Hachikō and Professor Ueno together each day. They brought Hachikō treats and food to nourish him during his wait.</p> This continued for 10 years, with Hachikō appearing only in the evening time, precisely when the train was due at the station.<br /><br />Hachikō died on <span class="mw-formatted-date" title="1935-03-08"><span class="mw-formatted-date" title="03-08"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_8" title="March 8">March 8</a></span>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1935" title="1935">1935</a></span>.
