很搞笑

2007-07-15T00:12:00.000+08:00

人肉space invaders...超搞笑的！

你是哪一类人？

2007-07-14T23:29:00.000+08:00

從左腦右腦的使用看你是哪種類型的人

１、像祈禱一般，將雙手交握起來…左手拇指被押在右手拇指下的→左腦使用者右手拇指被押在左手拇指下的→右腦使用者

２、將你的雙手交叉環在胸前(請揣摩一下”我生氣了喔”的感覺)右手臂壓住左手臂的→左腦使用者左手臂壓住右手臂的→右腦使用者

解析:從１+２來看你的結果*(要照1→2順序看唷)

右、左人:善於體貼他人的傳統溫婉類型

能直覺了解對方的心情，並自然和善對應的右左人。雖然無法主動積極的向前，但卻會後退一步來支持他人，生性穩重且貼心，給人一股凡事都會好好照顧的安心感。不過一旦被拜託過一次，往後就很難再對他人說NO—就是最大的缺點，不管自己有多麼的痛苦也會為他人鞠躬盡瘁….這種熱情堪稱天下第一！

右、右人:最愛自己的挑戰類型

生性勇往直前，一旦認定就是這個時就會馬上採取行動！這就是好奇心旺盛最愛挑戰的右右人。憑著一股氣勢就能夠坦然挑戰危險事物的魯莽一族。但另一方面亦具有被抓住弱點時就很容易被打動的鮮細脆弱一面…。基本上，不聽他人的話，會跳著聽談話的內容，也很容易就以主觀意識說話。不過也因這般充滿個性的緣故而備受眾人喜愛，往往能成為人氣者唷！

左、左人:認真又冷酷的完美主義者

雖頗有女人(男人)味，但卻是在這四種類型中最具有男子氣概！凡事都能條理分明的理論性思考，會憑著一篇大道理迅速打敗他，可說相當具有鋼鐵之女的感覺。自尊心極高，正義感也比他人多上一倍。做為朋友是很值得信賴，但若與之為敵就會很棘手的類型。只不過，因生性認真又是完美主義者，常會讓初次見面的人留下〔難以相處〕的不好印象。

左、右人:喜歡照顧人的領導型

具有冷靜的觀察力能看透對方或現場的氣氛，但亦具有能體貼入微照顧對方的一面，這就是兼具冷靜與溫情的左右人。因生性冷靜，頗具男子氣概且責任感強烈，像個大姐頭般常會受到同性的愛慕。能自然聚集人群並與之俐落相處。只不過，有時也會忍不住太愛照顧他人。相當在意世人如何看待自己，總是保持警覺心。

我是左、右型的。你呢？

think positive!

2007-07-03T23:58:00.001+08:00

it's the second week of school

my new puppy, his name is bi-bi

2007-07-01T17:58:00.000+08:00

Say HI to my new puppy!
His name is Bi-Bi!

hahha, for those who noe me well enough
i m "still" quite scared of doggy
and the fact that i actually have a puppy now....
is becoz...
it's not a "real" puppy actualli

bought my NDS yesterday finally (b4 GST go up to 7%)
and my first game: Nintendogs!~
Chose a "shiba inu" as my 1st pet.

I have always loved Shiba Inu
they just look so lovely
irresistably lovely

taught Bi-bi a few commands yesterday
he is a fast learner
but
today
when i call these commands
he doesn't seem to respond that well...
has he forgotten?
or has my "voice" changed overnight
(yes, it responds to my VOICE!!)

NEVERMIND!
i shall be a patient trainer
will try again later
:)

变少了

2007-06-30T22:04:00.001+08:00

自从回到新加坡以后，一切都好像变少了。。。

食量少了：
从前的我，就像不知饥饱的金鱼，
桌上有多少东西，都会尽量吃完。
昨天和同事吃午饭，
面，剩下了三分之一；
清汤，也只喝了一半。
是嘴刁？还是胃口小了？
唉，真是奇怪。

睡眠少了：
这不用说了，
每天不到2点不睡觉，
早上6点就得爬起床。
哪能像放假时那样，
爱睡多少都没关系呢？
唉，真是怀念！

话少了：
我虽然口才不算太好，
但爱讲话是我的个性。
最近，变得不多言，
也难怪，
说话也要怕“隔墙有耳”，
这样又有什么意思呢？
唉，真是可悲。

笑容少了：
我的大笑，
曾经是多么不自觉，
曾经是多么难自控。
但如今，
笑，
似乎是一件不可多得的事。
唉，真是无奈。

不过，有一样东西非但没有变少，反而多了，
你知道是什么吗？

好奇之心，人皆有之

2007-06-29T00:45:00.001+08:00

最近，学校里发生了一件事情
起初，的确很气恼
怎么这么不懂事呢？

不过，
孰能无过？
圣人也有犯错的机会，
何况那只是个小孩？

好奇之心，人皆有之。
这个年纪，
对于周遭事物感到好奇，
是再正常不过的事情了。

我看到了你掉下的眼泪，
也看到了你悔过的心。
孩子，不要难过，
古人的话我们要相信：
知错能改，善莫大焉。

只要你真的明白了，
那么，
这次就算跌得再痛，
也是值得的。

浪子回头金不换，
我们在这头等着你啊！

最不想面对的人

2007-06-26T21:39:00.000+08:00

人生中，有没有一些人是你不想面对的呢？
一定有吧。

在家里，可能很不想面对严肃的父亲，生怕说错话，惹他生气。
读书时，可能最不想面对老师，尤其是当你知道自己做了一些让老师失望的事。
工作了，又很不想面对一个又一个的“假面具”，但他们偏偏就是要在你面前“晃来晃去”。

这些人，如果真的不想面对，还是可以选择“逃避”的。

碰到爸爸在家的日子（其他人都出门了），就索性来个“一睡不醒”，能睡多久，就睡多久。
看到老师正迎面而来，立刻假装和同学讲话，再不然，把头低下来，急步“闪人”。
在工作时如果碰到“假人”上前嘘寒问暖，心情好的话，就应他两句；心情不好的话，干脆摆个臭脸。这些人都是聪明人，一眼就能看出你不想和他多谈，自然也不会自讨没趣。

基本上，面对不想面对的人，还是有办法“回避”的。

最近，我遇到一个很不想面对的人。
但，我没办法摆脱他。
不管我在那里，他总是像影子一样跟随着。
不管我怎么骂他，他还是厚着脸皮，不肯退让。
不管我如何好言相劝，他依然执著地坚持他的想法。
有时，被赶走了，以为真的不会再回来了，
谁知不过一会儿，他又回来了。
这样，反反复复，来来回回，
不知已有多少次了。
难道真的没有办法完全地回避他吗？
难道真的要逼我面对他？
难道......

我想，短时间内，我还是没办法摆脱这个叫“自己”的人。

非不能也，实不为也

2007-06-26T01:03:00.000+08:00

今天友人送了我一句话，让我思索好久。

很多事，皆“非不能也，实不为也”，
当然，她指的是一个“我俩的秘密”，
但也让我想到我现在的生活——
每天忙忙碌碌、浑浑噩噩，一天过一天，
过去的理想、梦想都忘得一干二净。

我曾想过：

学唱歌，兴趣嘛！
学跳舞，补先天不足！
到某某国家旅行，是跟朋友的那种啊！
继续升学深造，世上哪有比当学生更快乐的事？
换一份工作，看看外面的世界，也实现自己的梦想！

然而，
为什么到现在都只是空谈？
到底是什么让我却步？
生命是自己的，要负责的也只有自己，
总不想对不起自己吧？

非不能，实不为也。
不为，也只因我已失去追求生命的勇气......

可以打中文字啦！

freaky mango

2007-06-13T18:30:00.000+08:00

MANGO-commonly known as a fashion brand in Singapore.
However, in HK, when u talk about mango, u got to be referring to "desserts"!!

can't understand how come they can come out with so many types of desserts that "involve" mango. this one that i tried (pic above) is called "duo mang xiao wan zi"...cos it has lots of mango, and little glutinous rice balls....not the common black one u find in bubble tea.

it only costs Sing $6-7 for a very big bowl (2 pax). and it's rreaaaaallii shioookk!!!

yum cha!!!

2007-06-10T23:03:00.000+08:00

since young, i have been following my grandma for "yum cha"...nvr seemed to like it (prefer fast food restaurant like many other kids). but it has become part of life...u know, like foodcourt in singapore...it's a "must-do" for all HK-ers, especially during weekends. It provides a venue for families to get together, eat-talk-eat.

but now, "yum cha" kind of become an "enjoyable" experience to me.
i start to like the "food" that i dun used to like, e.g. "ha gao", "cheong fen", "feng zhua"...
i start to appreciate "tea" esp "pu er" for its "slimming effect"
i start to enjoy sitting in the round table, chatting or listening to others chat...

"yum cha" is definitely wat i called "culture" -- refers to patterns of human activity and the symbolic structures that give such activity significance.
how nice it is to be part of it and how nice it is to be able to appreciate it.

i guess i will be missing it a lotx........

this is where i stay in HK

2007-05-31T18:44:00.000+08:00

took some pics with my mobile yesterday outside my place in HK...the weather was so NICE after 2 days of rain-rain-rain. me love the clouds man! and check out the mountain in the background...that explains why my legs+arms+face are full of mozzie bitex....:P

the road u see here is the road that i have to walk pass everyday. it leads to the main road, where i can take mini-bus or bus to the nearest mrt station.

the place looks a bit deserted huh? haha. but it's not lah. just different from the city area, with fresher air and less noise pollution.

will try to take more pics n upload real soon.

hello HK!!

2007-05-28T19:35:00.000+08:00

it was tiring. woke up at 6am for school. (meet-the-parent day)
becos of the "parent workshop", i got to stay back till 130pm....when other pple left at 11+

didn't get to go home to change. so went straight to airport from school...

non-stop for 18hr!!

.
.
.
.

weather here is humid, raining everyday...make it difficult(n lazy) to go out somehow :\

so, in order to MOTIVATE myself to go out....bought a nice umbrella today!!!...haha...pink with poka-dots!!!

sound lame...ok...time for dinner...post again ba.

2007-04-06T13:41:00.000+08:00

haven been posting lately...there's nthg to post anyway. my life is so boring! beside work is still work. there's realli NOTHING more than work! argh...
sometimes, i reali wonder, am i a robot or wat?
but at least robots dun haf emotions...so, they wun feel bored. they wun feel stressed. they wun feel sad.
but i DO!
so can i JUST be a robot. tink i will be much happier...

next week is going to be another CRAZY n STRESSFUL week.
exam papers
observations
basic MT(which everyone is reminding me about)
organic farming
and,
endless markings
...

damn pissed off...now then they tell me to get a partnering organization for the organic farming. tot all the way we are serving the "school", wat's wrong to have the school as the org? so now wat? i need to go contact the kampong dunno wat...and need to write the report which is way overdue. and to apply for funds.... why can't they b more considerate and make life easier for pple. i dun mind the physical work (farming under the hot sun), but i MIND VERY MUCH the extra paper work that i need to do...at least the physical work takes my mind off from the stress sometimes...

but in the first place, why make me a CME teacher???

sigh, the more i type, the more i feel stressed now.
can't take it anymore

better stop here b4 i lose control...

{full-stop}

my voice is gone.

it was only sore throat for the past 3 days. but it got worse on monday, and today, guess wat? my voice was gone! think the infection is realli quite bad this time. never so sick b4.

saw doc AGAIN today (tink it's the 6 or 7 times since february)...he is not surprised when he see me (of course lah, can earn $$ again mah)...

anyway, he gave me 3 days MC...but the sad thing is, i do not "need" it. (my mom insists that i must take it tho')...cos i can't miss lessons this week and there's a lot to do for cca this week too......HEY HEY but i am no workaholic ok?! neither am i so "fan jian" that i need to torture myself at this state. but i really have no choice...unless i want to go crazy next week, rushing the syllabus (which i already AM doing now)...i m never so BEHIND-TIME before, i am 3-4 chapters behind time now. so if i 'miss" some more lessons, i will not be able to finish lor....and class test is coming on its way...walao, really v v rush! dunno rushing for wat?

anyway, do not call me (sms can lah) cos i can't talk properly now! dun want to scare u with my horrible voice.

Learning Korean

2007-02-04T16:53:00.000+08:00

i have started learning simple Korean since yesterday

realli simple one, so don't expect me to converse in full sentences

found this very good website that teaches simple korean. but it's in cantonese.

http://59.188.18.227/gb/www.rthk.org.hk/culture/korean/

here're some examples:

1. an nyeong ha sae yo? 你好吗？
2. an nyeong hi ga sae yo. 再见。
3. an nyeong hi gae sae yo. 再见。
4. an nyeong. 你好。/ 再见。

i am a cyborg, but that's ok!

2007-01-30T05:53:00.000+08:00

rain's world tour in singapore

2007-01-25T20:20:00.000+08:00

Bi-bi in Singapore Indoor Staduim

bi=rain

First song-that's when i started to stand... for 2 hrs!

RAIN in rain
(must b v cold...hmm...)

bi in the gorgeous RED suits...

(bi's fav color is black, white n red...and i also actualli wore that on that day, didn't know, hee)

bibi singing slow song...

bi bi and his diamond mic-stand! bling-bling!

close-up! close-up!

the clearest shot i got....towards the end of concert. ...my batt went flat in less one min after i realized that i can actualli choose "SHQ/super high quality"...sigh. wasted!

bi, u looking at this direction??

special thanks to Jois Wong CC...for the fantastic zoom-zoom camera she lent me :)

don't stop raining.....

2007-01-22T01:03:00.000+08:00

if onli if the concert NEVER ends......

we reached the stadium pretty early, abt 6pm...there wasn't too many pple there. so we walked walked walked. took a few pic. then went over to "east" entrance to continue waiting.

so we waited, waited and waited....6:15....6:30.....6:40.... tired standing... but saw lotx of interesting "fans" while waiting...there was teenagers, couples, gays, and most of all, AUNTIES from all over de world!! haha.

so finally, the door was opened. we quickly went in and rushed to the "mini shop" which is actuallie a counter selling "Rain's products"...we altogether spent $220!!! hahaa...luckily i brought cash. thanks to the newspaper report. anyway, happy to get the "CAP". i got the black one after much consideration...can last longer mah. its nice. with his logo and signature! yeah! also got a calendar, tee, notebook set, etc....should have bought the pendant also...aiya.

so that's all about the "shopping"....here comes the real exciting part. i couldn't believe my eyes when i was directed to my seat! it's SO NEAR to the stage!!! OMG!!! it's so NEAR compared to the Beijing concert i went last yr.......it's like just 15 steps away onli...finally i can forget abt the screen and concentrate on the REAL person. and with qiujin's super zoom camera, i m confident to get some close-up shots this time....

HOWEVER, i forgot about de lesson learnt last time...

if i ever going to watch his concert again. i tink i would forget about bringing camerea...why?...cos it distacted me!!! i was so busy trying to take pics that i can't concentrate on the real performance (tink i need to buy the VCD to watch it over again)...sigh. but no matter wat, i DID ENJOYED myself...have screamed my heart out and waved till my arms wanna drop off.......esp when he walked over to our side...right THERE!!!.....so NEAR and so REAL.!!!

He danced and sang for 2 hrs...no rest...v "xin ku"...and can see dat his left arm still hurts...

the finale was WONDERFUL...with the "paper snow flakes" falling down...so romantic. my gosh!! covered the whole floor, like snow!!

if u feel dat $488 is too ex for a concert. i would say it's worth it, only for RAIN!

Welcome to S'pore, Rain!

2007-01-19T01:31:00.000+08:00

wohoho, R-A-I-N is HERE, finally!

Welcome, welcome! haha.

Me getting more n more excited...gotta make sure tat i m in good health on Sun.

have been sneezing and having running nose. must take care, MUST MUST MUST!

quality sleep NEEDED

2007-01-12T19:50:00.001+08:00

long time never post...ever since school started.

it's onli the 2nd week and i alrady feel exhausted-

physically, mentally and spiritually.

TIAN ah...How to last for long?

just wish that i can get more QUALITY SLEEP tonight,

have not been sleeping well for the past 2 weeks...

SOB

amazing grace

2006-12-28T23:01:00.000+08:00

met up with crazy grace (well, tat rhymes, isn't it, haha!) yesterday for dinner with YDM.

it's been a long time we 3 meet up and chat and get crazy...haha, happy happy.

many things have happened to us in the year of 2006, great changes i would say. on one hand, i m sad dat we have made a decision dat doesn't realli turn out quite fine. but on de other hand, i tink we should give ourselves a pat on the shoulder for that fact dat we have actualli TRIED to change. cos "to change" takes courage...lots n lots of courage. if u ask me, when will i make the next "big change" in my life?...hmm...ASAP? haha...nah, can't really tell. i believe in "timing". i will know when the time comes.

to my 2 good friends, let's hang in there...remember the "rainbow" story?

yu hou jian cai hong.... jia you!!!

love ya n take care!

mY neW yeAr resOluTioN

2006-12-27T01:30:00.000+08:00

wo-ho...2007 is coming!!!

Well, not that I am extremely excited about what is going to happen next year, neither am I expecting anything exciting to happen to me...but I just can't help but to start thinking about my new year resolution. (wonder if any of u feel the same way? ;] )

I am never a "plan" person...i guess that's why i m feeling lost sometimes...so, so, so, i guess, NOW -would be the best time to reflect on the changes i want to or need to make in my life. YES, i have decided to change ......to set the BIGGEST goal ever! ahha! Cos i believe that resolutions if carried out successfully, would act as short-term goals which would lead to my long-term goals...(if any)

Here it is, my New Year Resolution 2007:

1) To sponsor a child from China (in the process)

2) To learn driving (and get the licence if i can, hee)

3) To tidy up my MESSY room -trust me, u won't want to see the state of my room...it's horrible!

4) To have a proper saving plan

5) To exercise at least twice a month

6) To cut down on my credit card bill...by half...(in order to achieve #4)

to be continued ...

"let it be for a year and not a day"

Merry X'mas to all of U !!

2006-12-25T16:44:00.000+08:00

meRRy x'mAs!

May ur days be merry n bright...

birthday celebration

2006-11-01T23:36:00.000+08:00

managed to find time today (FINALLY) to celebrate our dear chris's belated birthday, amy's birthday and chuiyi's wedding (got her a quiltcover cum towel set for her wedding day)

thanks chris for getting dat pretty purple album for our dear amy...

thanks everyone for putting in your best for the photo-taking session...

took some funni shots with mrs voo too.

shall publish a "more decent" one here :P

Introducing: from left to right

Top row: Myself, Christina, Chuiyi, Amy

Bottom row: Cecelia, Mrs Voo (my marymount teacher!)

p.s: this pic is taken outside our staff room ( see those windows in de background??) and we r in our jeans cos it's "promotion ex" today :P)

disappointment...

2006-11-01T22:03:00.000+08:00

Disappointment...

1) the "happy" class i went on Monday was not too "happy" after all. find it a bit too "fast", can hardly catch up with the rest. hmmm...next time must not sit at the back row, cos must wait "longlong" for the materials to come. also find that the shop is not so generous as compared to MWL (no complimentary drinks haha)...hmm. tink that shall be de last class i have with SDU.

however, still enjoyed the session with my frens. and have learnt some new techniques, e.g. putting on ribbons/buttons, using transparencies which i have a lot a lot a lot....

2) was supposed to go chuiyi's place to do some scrapbooking today, but was postponed due to various reasons...must blame de school la. ended at 2pm when it's supposed to end at 12pm! sigh!

nvm lor. will arrange again for our next session. and this time maybe Amy can join us too. :P

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

heehee, that's where i m going to sit in the Spore Indoor Stadium on the 21/1/07 at 8pm...

SUPER x 1000 ...EXCITED now!

i noe it sounds crazy to spend $488 on a concert (thanx to chris's OCBC card, i got a 10% disc. and managed to grab good seat).....but i m sure i WON'T regret it. i m juz so sure... :P

hmm...well, it'll be great if someone can watch the concert with me (can shout n yell together) . but it's ridiculous to ask someone to spend so much on a concert when they aren't a fan of Rain......ok, ok. i should say, not everyone is as MAD as me....

watching alone? YES. that's what i m going to do...HAHA...gonna be an unforgetable experience for moi!!! really looking forward to it :P

Beyond Basics: Time well spent

2006-10-28T20:19:00.000+08:00

yo all! just went for my 2nd "scrapbooking class" yesterday at "MadeWithLove" with Chris and Amy...signed up last minute, but it's definitely WORTH IT...IT WAS JUST SO FUN. i find it even better than SDU's class cos the trainer is more friendly and can really see the passion in her. Her name is Kelly---a young, sweet and inspiring teacher. She really inspires me a lot with her ideas.

This class---called "beyond basics"---- is designed for those who has completed the beginner's class (which may not be necessary) and would want to learn more in terms of scrapbooking techniques.

When we first entered the room, wat caught our eyes were 4 brown plastic files ...but they r nothing like those files we see in those 'courses' or 'seminars' which bore us to death. Each file contains 3-pages of notes...very useful notes i would say. here are what i have learnt from the class:

1.colour theory: different colours have different meanings. colour can set mood, creat order and convey emotion... therefore the colour plays an important role in scrapbooking. the right choice of colour makes everything fall in place.

2.positive and negative emphasis: the choice of colour also depends on what we want to focus for each photo. e.g.if the person in the photo wears a red top and the background is green. and if you want to bring out the person, not the background, then the choice of colours should be green instead of red. (o/w the person will "blend" into the page)

3.patterned papers: there are 5 main catogories of patterned papers, namely, stripes, circle, floral, text and geometric. when selecting patterned paper, we need to draw colours from the subjects of the photo. e.g. if the person is wearing a floral dress, then you may wanna choose a similar patterned paper with floral design.

4.visual weight of diff patterned papers: there are 2 main categories: heavy-weight and light-weight. in short, heavy-weight patterned paper should be placed near to the bottom of the page (heavy matters sink!)

5.true-centre VS visual centre: "true centre" refers to the "centre" of the page while "visual centre" refers to the right of and slightly higher than the true centre. we should place the photo on the visual centre and it naturally becomes the focal point of the page.

6.visual triangle and the Letter "Z": arranging n positioning the key elements of the page in a "triangular" or "Z" pattern is pleasing for the eyes too. besides, our eyes also like "odd numbers", so we should utilize embellishments in that manner.

besides theories, we also learnt the differnt techniques used for paper differentiation:

1.tearing

2.inking

3.sanding

4.stitching

it's fun to play around with the inkpad and it's precisely wat i wanted to learn.......to give the paper a "worn out" look...great for old/childhood photos. :)

with all the theory n practical (we made TWO pages), dun u tink it's impossible to cover everything in a 3-hr class? ...and dat's why we actually ended at 830pm instead of 530pm....3hrs+3hrs---> 6 hrs!!!!!!

i must say that i realli like the shop ...they are just so generous ...oh ya, they gave us a complimentary drink too. and they allow us to try out ANYTHING (except for papers la)...it's a great place to go with frens.

Finally, here're the "masterpiece" i completed from the class...the 1st one (without any photo) is done as "class work" ,the theme is christmas... and the 2nd one is done with photos which we brought along. i have chosen my childhood photos again. (thanks dad for digging them out for me.) it's me n my bro this time :P...he changed so much...doesn't look de same anymore, except for the fair complexion. hee (which i envy alot :P)

p.s.Monday, chris, chuiyi and i would be going for the "happy" class at SDU. hope it's good.

till next time!

gosh, it's really scary tis time even tho' i can't remember what it's about...

as usual, woke up feeling extremely TIRED!

as tho' i just came back from a gym/battlefield/or simply school....

suspect dat it's due to the "guilty" feeling i have...

sub-consciously i m not sleeply well cos

I FEEL GUILTY!

guilty for not touching de pile of exam papers lying in my room

gulity for not sitting down at de computer doing watever i m supposed to do

guilty for not cleaning up my room when it is turning into a store room

sigh...

2006-10-10T08:31:00.000+08:00

SDU...Scrapbbook Design University

2006-10-07T22:48:00.000+08:00

hallo every1!!!

had my 1st scrapbook lesson todae...was realli fUN!! all girls should try this.

ther were abt 9 of us in de class...average 20 yrs old. got tis little "angmoh" girl called JULIA, she came alone...mom went shopping i guess hehee. ther is tis other gal, hmm...how 2 say leh...both me n chris feel dat she reminds us of this student in our school...eh...better not to mention de names la hor...

anywae, started with some theory, like why scrapbooking? and what are the different types of paper, intro to de different tools, etc......all of us get to choose 3 papers of our choice. we are asked to choose papers dat go well with the color scheme of our photos (all of us brought 3-4 photos along)...since the photos i brought r my childhood photos and look "antique", i chose papers with de so-called-"rusty" feel. it's basically brownish-reddish-greenish...with poka-dots and stripes.

had so much fun playing with de tools...beside de scissors n cutters, there's also the HAMMER. we need to hit quite hard and it's fun cos it's like a way to vent out all de angerr n stuff...haha...de teacher looked quite worried when she saw all of us hit n hit n hit so loudly. hahaha

i was the slowest there...keep changing my mind u see...but however, it's JUZ so satisfying to see the end-products after almost 3 hous of hardwork.....gonna do more of this in future. might even consider taking de advanced classes...but $$ is a prob...cos it's a real expensive hobby...but yet it's a very meaningful hobby as we can decorate n preserve photos which we cherish so much.....p.s. my parents r so happy to see wat i did...n end up digging out ALL the old pics....

in de end, bought a 1-hr scrapbook set (cost me $69.9)...gonna finish it by end of this month (target target)!!
