a little panic

i've been away from the net a long time ya. we are still not sure if it's the network or the router. nyeh! and also we've been obsessed with Coffee Prince. it's darn funny and sad and sweet too. go watch. you'd be addicted too.

i have also been in a mad rush since last christmas ever since i got my Happy Hooker book. and i made 3 fat bottomed bags so far. :P

this was the 2nd bag made but i lined it first. and horribly lined too. so i cut it off and now it's sitting there unfinished again.

the lining was too small for the bag. :(


i completed making the body of the grey one on the 1/1/2008 :P but i never got to lining it until i made my mum do it for me 2 weeks ago. heehee. i've been happily using it for the past week. i love it!

the gold one is the 3rd i've made and i completed it whole last weekend. lining, handles and all. but i think i shall put a button on it today because it can't seem to close completely. hopwfully i can make another one for my mil by CNY.


the cat is loving the gold raffia. she likes the shinies.


resident cat taking her nappies in the bush. awwww...


we were in chinatown last night and it so happens to be the official light up ceremony. MM Goh was there. so were all these lions. there were amusing all lined up on the street.


ah.. time to go lunch soon. i'm going to be busy again trying to make a bunch of things by CNY and Valentine's day. and i still need to get me some new togs for CNY. and VD present. and some VD cupckaes. and finished redecorating the house. and lining pink FBB for tues. and managing my yahoo auction. OMG. you prolly will not see me for a while again.

random monday photos

i uploaded the pictures i took with my new phone. it's much easier now since i can take out the memory card and use a thumbdrive. better than my old one anyways.

this here is very large bowl of pomegranate seeds from 1 very large pomegranate. it took me 2 days to finish them all by myself. not one else bothers to eat this stuff. the ruby red seeds are very pretty. yummy too. i wonder if pomegranate is heaty...



this is the resident cat of our block. she's such a pretty thing. many people feed her so i don't. but she liks the occasional mr. bean ice cream. i do too. :)



these 2 are always together. sure a lovely pair. nope... they're both girls. one is older than the other. not mother and child.



girl girl is desperate for a good scratch after wearing the elizabeth collar for 2 weeks. she's all better now but previously she had a huge gash on her derriere and saw lice.. whatever those things are.

travelogue - korea p1

oh my! it's been 2 weeks since we came back. *thinks* actually 2 weeks isn't that long ago but it feels like i've been back at work for longer. i mean, Terminal 3 has already officially started operation so now i can't boast that we left for korea on the 19th dec 2006!


changi airport T3
yepp! CAAS was testing the operations of T3 so we got to be guinea pigs and left from an empty airport. it's all green and bamboo-y and shiny. and when you're there, check out the toilets with the great views (didn't have my camera with me then so no toilet shots this time.) we also got served free buffet breakfasts! (mmmmm... smoked salmon canapes...)


our purchase on the 2nd night of our stay.
the strawberries were large and sweet. hmmmm..... even the pale white ones!

21st dec 2006: somewhere near dongdaemun river..

we ran into the skating rink. such luck! it was crowded but really pretty.
