Love...

Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify the heart"
-Washington Irving

Love is like positive energy, and like energy is never lost in this universe.  It only changes it’s form, and so does love.

Love is a positive choice, and love always attracts more love. This is a fact. 

I learning to self heal my love.... I will try to do the NC thingy..

Hopefully it can work...

Some Inspiration for year 2011

Was at Popular Bookstore earlier this evening while waiting for my dentist appt... and suddenly i recall a scrapper's blog on her travel journal mini album..

(all the above pictures are from http://amytangerine.blogspot.com/search/label/travels)

Which suddenly inspire me to do that. So i went to purchase a hard cover spiral notebook which i could do some altered art on the front and back cover.
And there's how i intend to do this mini album - on a every little thing every day theme.

 Im going to make use of my polariod camera and snap a pictures on things that makes me happy, inspire me, that i should be thankful and grateful for.. And journal it and embellish it..
Somethings are lost and somethings are gain in year 2010.. i want to remember year 2011 as a happy one..

Looking forward to a new start!

Merry Christmas Darling (HQ FULL STUDIO) w/ LYRICS

*LYRICS*

Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you

Merry Christmas darling
We're apart that's true
But I can dream and in my dreams
I'm Christmas-ing with you

Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I'm near to you

Oh The lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day
The logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say

That I wish you Merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too
I've just one wish
On this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you

Oh, the logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
That I wish you Merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too
I've just one wish
On this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you
I wish I were with you

Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas...
Darling


Just want to wanted to say...............

Travel Notes (Year 2010)

Purchase this board book kit from MWL.. comes with instructors and all materials included.
Managed to complete everything last night within 3 hrs!

This year i've been scrapping lots on mini album.... and find that it's actually quite fun and not that difficult to do at all.
Just that you need a theme, and all pages should have a continuity design. Eg, 1st page with pattern paper, 2nd page with plain pattern paper and so on... With this theme, it's easier to design and also much easy on the eye too..

As i promised, i've completed 1 altered frame, 1 mini album.. Im down with 2 layouts!! Than i've completed my quota for this year's scrappbooking!

Looking forward to a New 2011, hopefully it brings me good luck, love, peace and hope!

Handmade present for friends...

For my Best Friend @ Work - Nana

 I did this altered art letter for my best girl friend at work, who i share all my ups and down, my shopping partner, my laughing and crying partner! Recently I've been very upset on relationship issues, and im glad that I've her with me, to go thru this heartbreak times...

Not to mention my child hood friend too.. though it's been awhile since we meet up, we finally had time to meet up during Christmas. And she's always sending me sms to send her concern and keep telling to call her out if I've any problems. Really appreciate that... 


 Surprising to see a Chinese girl whose best friend is Malay.. well, we live in a multi racial country..

As for these two gifts, I've yet to sent out... Though it may not have any special meaning to the receiver but I'll keep those wonderful memories that we had in  my mind...We will learn from our mistakes which will make us a better person in future..


Last but not least.. Happy Boxing Day!

My Lucky Catch @ Prize Stage

My lucky catch from Prize Stage (PS)

Was very lucky yesterday night, managed to catch this Happy Mickey with just $1!!!! wahahahaha

Wonder if my luck is still around.. so tempted to try to catch another Happy Minnie...
Hmmmm...

Fish Leong - 別再為他流淚 Bie Zai Wei Ta Liu Lei

Lyrics:

別再為他流淚

詞：黃婷
曲：易桀齊
編曲：吳慶隆

你走了太久一定很累　他錯了不該你來面對
離開他就好就算了心情很乾脆

他其實沒有那麼絕對　遠一點你就看出真偽
離開他不等於你的世界會崩潰
轉個彎你還能飛

就別再為他流淚　別再讓他操控你的傷悲
就算有一點愚昧一點點後悔　也不要太狼狽
他不值得你的淚　把那遺憾丟在大雨的街
你曾在迷失的旅途中盲目追　以後為自己醉
(Ending: 以後管他是誰)

每段感情都非常珍貴　他的好你就放在心扉
記得有個人曾讓你那樣的心碎

你笑了照亮夜幕的黑　什麼夢都不比你的美
多少年以後想起他還有些體會　那時你已無所謂



Some one acutally tranlated the Chinese lyrics to English.. and i find it so touching and so similar to what im facing!

So don't cry for him anymore...
Don't let him dictate your sadness any longer, even if you might feel a silver of ache and regret in your heart
Don't let yourself get overly down
He does not deserve your tears
So let the rain wash away the regrets
You've been chasing blindly after a dream
Nevermind who he is anymore
Your smile lights up the darkest of night
There's no dream as beautiful as you are
He'll realize what he has missed with the passing of years.

Whenever i listen to this song, my tears will just keep pouring out!! x_x'

What I'm feeling..

After so many incidents.. I feel so much in pain!
So much that i lose sleep.. and appetite.....

I wonder when can i find rainbow again......
So depressing that i didn't have the creative mood to scrap!

I only wish i can book an air ticket and fly to somewhere far, to someplace where no one knows me... To stay here, work, study and find love.

Love story of ..........

Beethoven..
Yesterday night, watch the Sex and the City movie...
Was very touch by Mr Big when he quoted 'Ever thine Ever Mine Ever ours' when they got married.
Soo romantic!!

I too wish that someday I could have a boyfriend who is romantic, whose fidelity belongs to me... whose heart is ever so true towards me.. Haiz.
Guess to find much a guy, probably dead...

Here is the poem that Beethoven wrote:

Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved, now and then joyfully, then sadly, waiting to learn whether or not fate will hear us - I can live only wholly with you or not at all - Yes, I am resolved to wander so long away from you until I can fly to your arms and say that I am really at home with you, and can send my soul enwrapped in you into the land of spirits - Yes, unhappily it must be so - You will be the more contained since you know my fidelity to you. No one else can ever possess my heart - never - never - Oh God, why must one be parted from one whom one so loves. And yet my life in V is now a wretched life - Your love makes me at once the happiest and the unhappiest of men - At my age I need a steady, quiet life - can that be so in our connection? My angel, I have just been told that the mailcoach goes every day - therefore I must close at once so that you may receive the letter at once - Be calm, only by a calm consideration of our existence can we achieve our purpose to live together - Be calm - love me - today - yesterday - what tearful longings for you - you - you - my life - my all - farewell. Oh continue to love me - never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved.

ever thine
ever mine
ever ours 

Counting down to Xmas

Recently I've been very busy with concerts held at work that I've totally lost my creative juice to scrap.. thus Ive been a super lazy scrapper!

Mention previously that I wanted to work on altered art frame.. search on google to let me have some inspiration..

some of the works of other scrapper...

So I'm still trying to work on it.. hopefully I can complete it before Christmas..

This month is also one of my favourite month... having log cakes, exchanges of gifts, beautiful lighting... and i like the Christmas feel of spreading Love, Peace and Hope...

Oh and i added my wish list too... for Santa.. Hmm, I won't say that I'm at my best behaviour this year but I've been a good girl... Do my work, my chores.. But i will definitely keep my room neater by next year and be more diligently on exercising to have a healthy lifestyle!

My Wish list on my "Wants"

Having a cup of hot chocolate before i board my plane

My first breakfast in Hongkong

SQ! I wish 1 day i might be able to take sq flight

Finally the very last post for this trip!

It's been a really enjoyable trip... Fall in love with the factory outlet shopping, the beautiful sights of San Francisco, Los Angles and Las Vegas...

Given me a choice, I would love to stay in California for a short period to experience the different lifestyle there.

People there are much friendly.. and I like to shop in Target and CVS.. 

Hahaha, Im like a country pumpkin who hasn't seen the world!! Hehe Although CVS is like our Watson's but still stuffs there are different.. 

The only tourist attraction that I didn't do, was to sit their Cable Car in San Francisco.. 

Perhaps this will give me a chance to go back again to explore.. Would really love to visit DC and New York! (^_^v)

What I missed....

San Francisco Skyline

San Francisco... The food and the shopping!!
Hmmmmm

Oh by the way, recently i've been so hooked on photoshop that the above picture is also photoshop! My skills are not that good yet but I'll keep on practising to improve!

Later got to work.. Both weekends has been burnt! haiz

New Tools to add on

My loots finally arrived in SG from USA yesterday! Was so happy to received it as I've been hunting high and low for these 2...

New Tools to add to my collection!

And I managed to purchased it during US Black Friday sales! Which was a really good buy and with the US rate at 1.35, it makes these 2 lovely so much more affordable! I've yet to use it on any of my scraping yet but i can already foresee that I'll be using these punches quite often...

And after I purchase these punches.. Im contemplating if i should purchase this stamp.. hmmmmm

Tim Holtz's stamps.. "Good Thoughts"

Maybe I shall wait till end of this month to purchase.... hehe cos 13th mth bonus will comes in this month, and it will be a very good excuse of myself to get as a present just for myself.. wahaha

Make Wonders

I've never used photo shop before because of all the difficult to understand commands.. but recently i was forced to use photo shop due to work. Needed it to design a poster.. thus I've no choice but to learn. And I'm so hooked to it now!

Wanted to learn how to create photo collage using photo shop.. ended up.. I learned to create photo mount and create rainbows! so fun!!!

Glee Club - Empire State of Mind...

I've been hooked on Glee serials since i've download PPTV.... Can't wait the next epi in season 2!!

Next stop.. we went straight to Disneyland after our Dim Sum... though I've been to Hongkong's Disneyland for the 3rd time.. Still, Disneyland will always hold a special charm on me.. 

There wasn't any parade on the day that i visit cos they are preparing for the Christmas theme... but nevertheless.. i managed to watch the Golden Mickey show which i haven't seen before.. cos there aren't time to watch when im at Disneyland.. And i took the roller coaster ride at Tomorrowland! And for the 1st time, I manage to snap a picture with Sitch!!
