Guitar felt




Last Saturday spent about 2 hours making this awful looking guitar. I lost my other felt and only has white and blue left. I poked my finger and bleed in the process. I haven't been sewing for some time.




Philip requested for a guitar for the gingerbread man felt i made in 2006. I forgot how small the gingerbread man is. I ended up making a guitar way bigger than the little man! Instead of having the gingerbread man play the guitar, i can only glue behind him as if he is carrying the big guitar.




I will try to make things more perfect the next time.

Neti Pot


Last Saturday I got this neti pot from a Yoga event and bazaar in Bangsar Sports Complex. I got it for RM10. I am amazed it is not hard to use and it fact i feel more 'clean' after washing my nostrils. I start wth my left one first...tilting the pot to one side and pour the warm salt water and let it run through my right nostril.


Okay here is the way to mix the mixture. The total water should be 500ml. I use 400ml cold water and 100ml hot water to make the water lukewarm. Then i desolve half a teaspoon of unrefined salt. Mix in a bigger containter. Pour the mixture into the neti pot 4 times, that is 2 times for each side.


The guy who demonstrated to me looks fine and healthy. He said he has been practising this for 7 years. I am gonna try doing this every morning. Too bad i missed it today..because well..my alarm clock did not wake me up! It is true!!

Blue Wednesday




Last night i went to Blue Wednesday at The Annexe Gallery, Central Market, featuring Flica, Liyana Fizi, Figure of Speech & Zailla Lee. I went there with Zito. Initially when Zito asked me I told him i couldn't make it because Wednesday night is always yoga night. Since yoga class is full, i chose to go Blue Wednesday.




I am glad yoga class was full that day...because i wouldn't want to miss this. After being there last night, i know i have would have too much to lose if i didn't come to Blue Wednesday last night.




First act was Liyana Fizi, it was refreshing and sweet. Even the malay songs she sang was so sweet and cute.




Second act was the abstract Flica, playing electro-acoustic music with high volume and low lightings. Although it may not suit everyone, i found myself enjoying it.




Third act was Zailla Lee who is a petite lady with very good showmanship. The crowd was lighten up and clap along. She has Jewel and Tracy Chapman combination. Anyway it was interesting and fun to watch and the collaboration between Zailla and Figure of Speech was awesome. Figure of Speech raps so well with every word sounded very clever to me!




I was very happy last night. One of my best night ever!

Yellow roses in office


Today me and my colleagues went out for Ah Koong fishballs in Pudu and then visited the flower distributor next door. We had to buy something, so we chose these yellow roses.


Initially we put it inside a self-made fancy vase made by plastic containter and paper bag from Isetan, but the girls think that they are not pretty enough, so Shawna transfered it into a glass jug.


Anyway it is all beautiful to me. I love fresh flowers.

Some of the things i bought







A weekend in Bangkok =fun


The last time i was in Bangkok was in 2006. Last week i went again! It was fun!!! For your information, Bangkok is OK to travel now. In fact it is very quiet now.


We love to shop and eat there! I personally love the tom yum gung, coconut icecream!! Yummy!


We had fun shopping everywhere...even in 7-eleven it is more interesting than here. They sell books, CDs, burgers etc. I got myself some snacks(gums, mints, Lay's, sunflower seeds and a raincoat).


Looking forward for the next trip.


Look at my luggage...before and after, but i admit i did not shop enough.
