kimchi + blisters = painful meal
uh huh. my lower lip is full of blisters from chafting against the braces. they seem to be moving from the left to the right. as of now i can count 2 big ones and 4 baby ones. i really must try to 'cool' down.
the kim chi is not helping of course. now that the DH is gone again, imma goin' to eat quite a fair amount of kim chi. more blisters for me. w00t!
the DH finally bought me a nintendo DSL. it's what i call in a nail polish color. pearly nudish pink. you know what this means... time to crochet a case for it. ^___^
i've even sorted out my yarn and found the perfect fluffy soft yarn for it. also not to mention all my WIPs. lots n lots of bags to be finished off and lined.
^_________^
put up 2 more earrings. go look.
this was made for a colleague. it's meant to be her love bird but i made the beak too big so now it looks like a colorful falcon.

summer vacation
well, we're suppose to be on vacation but we ain't going anywhere. somebody couldn't tear himself away from his work it seems. we could already be in Bali by now, or Bintan.
at any rate, we did go to the beach this morning but since we weren't near any bike rental place we ended going to the pool. now the DH looks like a lobster. :P
tomorrow we'll be better prepared. sunblock. clean undies. food. he did promise to take me to the pool again tomorrow, and we'd try to get near a bike rental shop.
yesterday i made this.
Big Eyed Bambi
i got the idea from this charm that i see on some sites.
and i was itching to get one and since i don't see it here, i decided that i can needle one into shape. the toughest thing is to make the legs. my fingers are suffering from multiple puncture wounds now. i really should get me some thick finger gloves.
today i made a giraffe. i was planning to make something big and fat and cute but this one turned up almost anatomically correct. the legs are of course short and stumpy. i started at about 5 pm, made dinner at 7pm. by the time it was 10 and the blue planet was showing i was putting in the spots. heheh. not bad for today.
i really like this 'eye' effect. it's weird but somehow it makes the eye sparkle. and since i do not have black, all my animals are gonna be brown and doe eyed.
i'm not sure what to do with them now. the giraffe was suppose to be for me new bag. i might turn the deer into a charm, maybe for handphone, or a pendant.
i'm done bragging now. i wonder what i can acheive tomorrow.

my toilet smells like cat wee
sighs. i wish that my apartment has a rubbish chute attached. so i can dump rubbish away immediately. so i don't have to dress up just so to throw away smelly bags of eated foods and kitty wee.
so.. i made quite a few good stuff this weekend. i turned some cupcake into studs, finished up my 'easter' earrings, bird tree, love dove, and my absolute fave, little red riding hood complete with the BIG BAD WUFF.
just too bad that the DH has hijacked the camera away in china. so no pictures. right now i'm starting on the 3 little piggies, and another BiG BAD WUFF.
what other fairy tales would you like to see on your ears?

making miniatures
the reason i wanted to try needle felting is cos the result is fuzzy and the animals look live like. it is made from wool after all. i like my furry things.
my first attempt at making a terrier. i modeled it after a friends dog. unfortunately i also managed to turn her terrier into a dachshund. ah ha ha ha. it's a tershund. a dashier. w00t!
but i have to say that it's rather cute ya.
i also made a cat but eee... me dun like.
it looks like some deranged animal hybrid. :P
me will try again.

crafting madness
a friend recommend that i register with this: http://community.livejournal.com/sgselltrade/
that means i have to open an account with LJ and maybe post on it too. the registration rules are quite stringent but i suppose it is suppose to protect the buyers. which i understand. more work for me then. maybe i really should enquire about how q box operates.
i've been meaning to post for days but i actually havent' turned on my pc much. that's because i've been hooked onto my new hobby. Needle felting!
so after about 100$ and 4 broken needles later, i have these...
which have also been turned into earrings and put up on the shop.
i love the look that the wool gives. like a real animal. it's all fuzzy.
what else should i make? hmmm

silliness
my silly DH. make me worry for him so. his lappy refuse to boot up and he can't get to his work. good grief. cannot scold and cannot sayang *sends flying kisses*
tired. will sleep. zzzzzz....
tired. will sleep. zzzzzz....
i'm bored and i want to go home
it's finally pouring. yay! no more aching knees and stuffy air. and an apartment that's like a sauna.
i feel so restless. i want tomorrow night to come quickly because the DH is coming home! yay! deep deep down i cannot survive 2 weeks of him away. one week is tolerable and the days fly away quickly but anything more than 7 will make me restless and tetchy. aaarrgghh! it's not 3 yet.
me is all excited about needle felting. i'm itching to buy all the equipment and start making something. :P of course i cannot. not yet. must resist. grrr..
i envy people with great designs and creative ideas. i admit that i am a copy cat. meow. purr. purr. i'll just trawl the internet for ideas and steal them! meh! ok la. i don't copy exactly mah. hor?!
anyways if you have any thing that you want made you can let me know. maybe i can custom make for you.
which reminds me. i have many pendants waiting to be finished. not tonight. me going shopping.
toodles.

it's been 2 years
it's nice to know that we've been married for 2 years. and we've lived in this apartment for 2 years.
and we did not celebrate it. that's like the joke for today, because i didn't realise that the anniversary was last week. and apparently the DH forgot all about it too. but according to him he did realise it earlier than me, it's just that he didn't want to mention it.
there was laughter all around. i will do a victory dance to commemorate the day. many good years to us.

feep feep
my usual office surfing brought me to this site.
pretty cool stuff eh? sometimes i wish i'd have an original idea. since a lot of times my ideas that someone else have thought of first and i'm just inspired or i want it. hence i make. *sighs*
i also chance acrossed this..
something that i'd tot to try my hands on but decided to resist. i saw pre-packed needle felting ..ingredients when i was in Tokyu Hands and i was tempted to get them but in the end i didn't. they were't quite inexpensive. but think of the fun! :P

star nosed mole
today i am obsessed with the star nosed mole. the cutest thing eh-vah!
or course, some have questioned my defination of cute but you just have to lookit' it's tiny plump body and that pink feathery nose and you'd go awwww...
extreme close up of it's highly sensitive nose.
i also came across this bat picture that sorta reminded me of the bat i used to keep for a while. the bro picked it up when it was a wee fuzzy pink baby and i milk fed it till it was palm size. and it always called out to me and i'll put her to hang on my shirtfront. awww....
here we have the DH posing with the MAO in their fancy country colors.
yepp yepp. i was similar garbed too! we got the bandana at the Taiwan Shilin night market Jungle Mall.
the DH and i fell in love with a teeny tiny scottish fold kitteh at the Jungle Mall. she was so sweet, she wanted to be cuddled. awwww...
this is not that kitteh. this is a random internet image.
i also manage to grab some charms near the place where we had lunch one day during the Taiwan trip.
and in my current frenzy of sculpturing i made an earring for a colleague.
pot of gold at end of rainbow
i especially liked.... everything! the theme looked as if it should be called "in the woods" or "woodland wonderland"
