Everytime, I check Facebook, there will be so many posts about Dato Lee Chong Wei. As I read some post, I almost cried.He has done his best and he is so humble.Taking pain killers each time before every match and still excelling beyond his level. My mum and I also prayed for him during the final match.I prayed that he is steady.
I was tempted to get the FREE Baskin Robbins ice cream tonite,8-8-2012 from 8pm -10pm.But I had to work and can't make it in time.Some more, there will be a super long queue in all the outlets.So, I guess I have to miss it this time.
Yesterday, I met up with my long time old best friend.She is still pretty as ever and she is a pharmacist.She got a PR in Australia and her boyfriend(australian chinese) is also a pharmacist.When I asked him about the olympics, he said he also supported DLCW.
I also went to Kanebo Metrojaya to take a look at some cosmetics.My friend bought a very sweet lip gloss for RM104 while I bought an eyeshadow palette for RM175.If you spend RM150 and above, you will get RM20 voucher at Parkson Grand.I was contemplating to buy a nail polish as well for a friend's wedding gift but end up not getting it.I am not sure whether she will like the color.After that I went to get my fave donuts at Big apple donuts.I love the durian, peach and strawberry flavour, they are always my favourite. Then I rush to my next class.after my class, I called it a day. A fruitful but tiring day.I haven't met my best friend for 5 years, and I hope our friendship will last forever.
I love DLCW and wish you happiness in your coming wedding.I wonder if you will invite Lin Dan as well?haha...
Ok, a treat for my readers here.If you support DLCW and think he is our Hero, Pls leave a comment for this post.I will send the first 5 readers a handmade bookmark to your address for FREE.Kindly leave your email as well.Ppl give free baskin Robbin, some give free nasi kandar, and I am just doing my part to give bookmarks in honor of DLCW.

Lovely Handmade Bookmarks selling for Charity!Come support!
Here are some of the bookmarks I made.In total, I made 37 bookmarks in 2 weeks time.I sold 25 bookmarks to 14 different customers.Some bought up to 5 bookmarks one shot. Some bookmarks here are reserved and some are still available.Remakes are possible. price range frm RM1 to RM4.50. 90% of the bookmarks are priced at RM2 each.
Bookmark made for Isaac
front
Back view of the bookmark
To create this bookmark, I used Martha Stewart's lace border puncher which I bought for RM79.90.I also used imported USA Embossing powders, embossing ink and japanese rubber stamps to create the images.I also used a big butterfly puncher to cut out the blue butterfly, which I bought for RM54.90.For the embossing technique, I bought a heat tool worth RM109.90.Most of my supplies are imported and you cannot buy it in Malaysia.I also bought a laminating machine to laminate each and every bookmark so that it is waterproof and more lasting.Imagine all the money I spend, just to create one single design for the bookmark and only selling for RM2 each.
To be honest, my entire supplies cater to make these collection of bookmarks cost me slightly more than RM1000.OUCH! Do u know how much does a standard A3size laminating machine costs?I surveyed the price and it was RM480! I bought the A4 size laminator and of course its cheaper.I also found out that the laminating service at photostat centres for A4 size is RM2.50.If you laminate your IC, its costs RM1.50 and a small photo would costs RM1 each.Imagine how competitive my bookmarks costs.For every RM2 you pay for the bookmark, RM1 will be donated to my church building fund.We need a large sum of money to buy a new building and we are planning to move out in 3 years time.I am just trying my small bit to help out in the church building fund.Yes, I am a christian.Although I don't earn much from making these bookmarks, but I really do enjoy making them.Hope you readers will show some support.
I will be giving free delivery to anywhere in Malaysia if you buy 3 bookmarks and above.If you buy below 3, just add RM0.90 for the envelope and postage.
Price:RM2 only

creative side and about my grandmother
I guess I inherited my interest in music from my mum and art and craft from my paternal grandmother.She was an avid sewer when she was younger, around 20 years ago.She used to make dresses, blankets, pants for me, curtains for the house etc.She was very smart and very good in doing business.Last time, she also sells vegetables at central market and earns quite a lot.She's 87 this year and her memory is losing.What do you expect?My relative's mum in law was diagnosed with Alzheimer at the age of 65! My grandmother is considered very lucky now.She can still walk around, but of course she gets tired very easily.She is currently living in flats, the 4th floor and there is no lift.She walks up and down almost everyday.Even those young salesman who climb the stairs to her house pant when they reach the top.
oh yes, I remember, when I was form 3 and doing sewing coursework for my kemahiran hidup test, we need to sew a baju Kedah.My grandmother helped me to sew and I passed the test! Suddenly I felt inspired to taking sewing classes! I started googling for the price of sewing machines in the internet.I would love to make my cheongsam one day, if time permits, and bags and evening gowns.Wow, being creative is endless.There are so many things to learn, yet so little time.I wish I don't need to work so hard in my fulltime job now so I have more time to be in tune with my creative side.Anyone can recommend me where to learn the art of making cheongsam from a sifu?Affordable fees anywhere?Ok, my location is in Kuala Lumpur.Hence I would prefer Klang valley area.

Lenna Lim,The Pride and Joy of UM Music Faculty
Lenna Lim(right) is 2nd Runner of of Miss Chinese International Pageant 2012
I and Shaun watched the beauty pageant live on astro 311.It was really interesting that we don't want to go home because our house don't have astro.I was watching at my mum's place.My hubby said Lim Jia Bing has a big chance of winning champion since she also won 2 subsidiary titles. My favourite judge will be Laughing Gor( Michael Tse). I think he must be a really good kisser! Seeing the way he kiss on TVB dramas. haha.....
I think Lenna's performance was amazing! She answers the questions really well and fast.I was cracking my head when Eric Tsang asked those tough cultural questions.I dun even know the answer to anyone of those tough questions, but Lenna did! She is really smart.If she really teaches at a music school, I bet she will have lots of students due to her popularity:)
