What Makes Me Happy :)

Receiving this super duper cute deer penpal letter in the mail!

Receiving my charms from the Charm Swap! (I thought they went missing!)

Taking random shots in the mall!

Working on my 'Journalling For A Cause' pages!

Mimosa, Shy Flower

Since young, I have been fascinated by Mimosa. I name it 'Shy Flower' because of how its leaves will close up to touch, only to open again, after a few minutes. I like to think that I'm somewhat similar to the flower because I too, clam up when I meet new people, and it's only after few occasions or so that I will slowly open up to them. My 'Shy Flowers' never fail to brighten up my day. Recently, I just found out that there's a whole field of them in an enclosed open space along my street. Isn't it amazing? :)

P.S. I've been sick the past few days, really behind in my journalling. Hope I'll feel better soon.

Day In Pictures

Things That Made Me Smile Today

Finding this weird bottle of liquid with funny labels written by my Dad, in the refrigerator.

my 'blessed' page for the day!

Colour Challenge: Rainbow/Multi (&greys &whites); Journal Challenge Day 6

It's the last day of colour challenge! Boo Hoo Hoo! I really love this challenge because it teaches me to appreciate the different colours in my everyday life, and take time to slowly take in all the beautiful things that I will usually take for granted because they're always beside me. Thanks Cat, for coming up with this! :)

I didn't manage to capture a lot today but I would say these are good enough because they're just so charming~

stripes are so common nowadays, there's about 2 in every 10 people that I see wearing them. Sayang calls them zebras (sorry, no offence!). This is a giordano advertisement by the way.

wall mural in the mall, of my favourite sports brand, ADIDAS!

this Yeo's drink advertisement is too cute to resist! It's amusing how the dwarves chose the drink over Snow White. ;P

my journal page for the day! I chose to use more colours today, to incorporate into the colour challenge. The watch was inspired by a cool Adidas watch that I saw, which also has a mini calculator on the watchface itself. It's simpler today because I only wrote in tasks that have the highest importance right now, thus the bombs and the tick-tocks, reminding me that time is RUNNING OUT!

Journal Prompt Number 6:
It's time...
It's definitely time to do something. It may be a new season for you in your life, or a time to make some goals, or it may just be time to relax (because it's Saturday right?).
Draw something that represents the word time and then make a list of things that you need to do at this time in your life, or day, or week :)

Colour Challenge : Purple

I had a hard time trying to capture purple initially because the purples I saw were what others wore. I do not have the courage to walk up to them to ask for a photo to be taken. Thank God I managed to see more lovely purples as the day went by. :)

railings of a bridge at the playground. :)

cut-out star outside a kindergarten (love stars!)

Wow, I sure have got lots of purples today! Tomorrow's the last day! Aww~ Sad cos' I'm loving this challenge! :D

Creative Boot Camp Day 13 (It's Over~)

{SMILE} : say cheese! :D

Today marks the end of Creative Boot Camp. It didn't turn out as enjoyable as I had wanted it to be but it was definitely a good learning experience. I learnt to look at things from different perspectives and not only take them literally. Creative Boot Camp has taught me to explore different meanings of different things, so that I can now widen my knowledge, my horizon. :)

Colour Challenge: Blue

So, it's the BLUES today! My BLUES are not BLUES that will give you the BLUES! (Hope you'll get it!) ;D

I wake up to see this every morning, doesn't makes me feel the blues though~

a blue pen. :)

Sayang's gym towel

miniature paper house, constructed by me! :D

Doramon!

this cute toy I got from KinderJoy (love the chocolate!)

miniature bra with leopard spots mousepad, a birthday gift!

Creative Boot Camp Day 11 & 12

{HUSH} : this statue of a lady praying just emits a sense of peace, almost like you have to be silent around it.

{SMOOTH} : Oranges have rough skin but they have rather smooth texture once you peel the skin off. It reminds me to not only look at the appearance of someone or something but to explore deeper. :)
