Christmas is all around!


Does the calendar really say December 13th? Wow! Time is just flying by and my to do list is growing by the day! I just can't believe Christmas is right around the corner.Well, Christmas is my favorite season of the year! In many countries of the world, the celebration of Christmas on December 25th is a high point of the year. Do you have any idea of that?

It is impossible to forget that Christmas is coming. Coloured lights decorate many town centres and shops, along with shiny decorations, Christmas tree will also be decorated with lights and artificial snow painted on shop windows.
This will be my first Christmas away from home.  Every year we will have family gathering to celebrate Christmas and my house will  be decorated with Christmas trees, coloured lights and usually I will work it with my mum. The day following Christmas is called boxing day and we will open our present (most of the time i open it before the boxing day la :D). Aiksss, hopefully this will be my first and last Christmas away from home. Miss all of them :)

Cross Stitch

The last time I tried my hand at cross stitch I was about nine years old, I got this idea that I wanted to relearn how to cross stitch again.


I bought this lovely cross stich pattern on my trip to Thailand for about RM6.90. 


Love this pattern, time to brush up on my skills :) Hopefully I can finish it fast before my final exam.

Well, according to some article cross-stitch is a popular form of counted-thread embroidery in which X-shaped stitches in a tiled, raster-like pattern are used to form a picture. Cross-stitch is often executed on easily countable evenweave fabric called aida cloth. The stitcher counts the threads in each direction so that the stitches are of uniform size and appearance. This form of cross-stitch is also called counted cross-stitch in order to distinguish it from other forms of cross-stitch.

Thanks for stopping by :)

My Craft Punches

Besides felt craft, I love handmade card that made with craft punches. Punches are most definitely one of my favorite crafting tools and I love collecting them, but always thought that they are a bit pricey. Therefore, I always got my craft punches from Daiso which is cheaper, RM5 for each, but they have limited design and I don't feel perfect cause din't own all of them (feels like never get enough of them) :D! Anyway, check out Martha Stewart's Punches! Very useful for scrapbooking projects :) Nice rite but expensive because most of them are imported. What to do, we spent money to maximize our satisfaction! :D

Cow or Sheep? Haha~ Either one, I not very sure too :p


Some of my craft punches~

Have a nice day :)

陌生


突然發現對著鏡子久了,

裡面的我變陌生了;

突然發現念的名字久了,

名字也變陌生了;

突然發現某個字寫久了,

字不再是原來的字,

它還是陌生了。

世界在變,

風景在變,

周圍的空氣一直在變,

可是我卻抓不到重心,

不知道誰會是誰的風景,

誰又只是誰的過客。

我不知道...

你的信德在那里?

( Photo source: Google Images )

现代人见识广博,切越来越难相信。层出不穷而急速的资讯,使我们习惯了所见所闻都是“只供参考”的假象,说话不在有信用,即使标榜“你看见的就可得到”的物品,也可以加工或减料。许多人的盲目,可能是在看不到什么是真实的,值得追求的,或有久远的价值。

关于一个盲人的故事,因为他相信耶稣所以他看见了。那个人虽然盲,却看见自己需要什么,信德也很坚定。“你信,就会得到”。这句话是挑战,要求我们全心信他。

说到为什么今天会跟你们分享这个故事呢?

这是因为妈妈的一句话:你的信德在那里?

每个学期,因为位子有限关系,我们都得要抢科目(add drop week),为了要排到好的时间表,或则是想跟朋友排一样的时间。所以每个学期都很讨厌这个add drop week,因为位子没了就要从新排过时间表。

所以今天早上到了要抢科目的时间就很着急。过了半个钟都还没抢到自己要的科目所以就打给妈妈。

我们的对话

:妈,怎么办?我还没add到我要的科目啦。我的朋友都add到了。

妈:你的信德在那里?我有帮你祈祷,一定可以的。要有信德啦~

:好的,我在试试看。(心里默默的祈祷)

过了十五分钟~

:妈,我add到了,早就add到了。只是System down的关系add一半的时候跳出来,所以不知道已经add到了。现在察看时间表才知道add到了。

妈:所以咯,要有信德! 那么你现在要做什么?

:当然是感谢天主,要全心全意信赖主 :)

“你信,就会得到”

Take Control in the Supermarket

(Photo source: Google Images) 

Take control in the supermarket will help you save a lot of money. Therefore, I would like to share the alternative ways to cut anyone's expenses from Reader 's Digest and I found it's really working! :D

Here's how to leave the shop with the things you went in for and nothing more:

Pick up a basket

You will head straight for the checkout when it starts to get heavy. Avoid the trolleys because they encourage you to chuck in extras.

Make a list and stick to it

Shops deliberately place staples such as bread and milk a long way apart so you have to wander the aisles in between, buying stuff you don't really need on the way.

Beware BOGOFs (Buy One Get One Free offers)

Just how many watermelons can you eat in a week? Loose fruit and vegetables usually work out cheaper.

Just take cash

Carrying credit cards leads to budget-breaking impulse buys like chocolate.

Look up and down

The most profitable brands are placed at eye level. For bargains, check the top and bottom shelves.

Happy Saving~ :)

超全点心

听朋友说,在北海超全点心算是老店了。
以前,它只是一间店面,
过后,超全点心的老板把两间店合起来了,
变成一间很大间的点心店。

每次去到的时候都没位子坐,

要等了一会才有空桌子。

不过这次不一样,因为我们整夜没睡觉。
因为我们唱K,唱到四点,又怕越睡越累,隔天还要赶巴士回去学校。
所以,就决定直接去吃早餐咯。
现在是凌晨六点钟~
我们都累了~
可是还是能把桌上的点心一一扫完!哈哈~

烧卖

这餐11个人,一个人只需付RM4


超便宜哦,其中还包括凉茶呢。




陶晶瑩寫的月經論

陶晶瑩寫的月經論~很讚唷!男生一定要看!!

大部分的男人無法理解女人經前經後的歇斯底里,甚至有的
男人堅持,如果女人天天要求兩性平權,就不應該利用月經扮演弱者博取同情。

如果男人在自己的下體被高跟鞋連踹七天而不哀不縮,
那女人也可以平靜地度過經期。

有那麼痛嗎?因人而異。
有的女性甚至可以因為經痛痛到暈過去,你覺得呢?

月經來潮時的下腹腫脹、絞痛,攝氏32℃的氣溫下卻可以四肢冰冷,
甚至寸步難行舉步維艱,你就知道有多痛了。

生理上的痛我不想著墨太多,因為男人真的很難體會。

就光談月經來潮為何使人焦慮不安、情緒難平吧!

男人們, 請你試著舖一束濕衛生紙在你褲襠間連續5∼7天;
而且,請注意,每隔1∼3小時不等(視流量而定)更換一次,免得溢出哦!

就算一個成年女人已經和月經相處了十幾年,
她還是無法算準何時能準地接下第一滴血。

有時候,周期到了,理所當然地先墊一塊防患於未然,
誰知道墊了4、5天卻是一場空,
就在你準備放棄抽出衛生棉時,冷不防地天降甘霖,
妳只好祈禱自己不在野外或剛好不是白褲子。

跨間夾著一條濕濕的棉紙有多難受?

更難受的是,有時候很難光憑感覺得知它是否容量已滿,

如果你是一個忙碌的上班族,有很多會要開;
或妳剛好是賣甜不辣的媽媽,公廁要走很遠;
或妳剛好是個要發片的女藝人,
今天MTV要穿超短褲或下水演悲情;你能不焦慮嗎?

有時候以為已滿溢,衝到廁所一看,才佔了1���瓷A要不要換新的?
有時候坐著喝咖啡,兩腿夾的緊緊的
嘴裡的溫熱轉移了下體的溫度感受,

待回過神來,走進廁所檢查,卻發現月經已波濤洶湧地滿溢
自然又是一陣手忙腳亂;你能不情緒化嗎?

相信男孩子大多有夢遺的經驗吧!洗床單煩不煩?
請想一下,你們洗的是透明的,我們洗的卻是血染,難不難

月經不比自來水,開關由自己操作,要停要來隨心所欲;

我想,男人大概不明瞭,經血那種欲走還留的任性有多令人抓狂吧?

最後1、2天,經血明顯變少;有時候,一整天只有一滴,
自己覺得應該不再需要衛生棉時,
冷不防地它又在半夜吐了一口,不多不少,
像是文弱書生得肺癆臨死前吐的 那一口。
一口,就又得洗內褲、床單,和床單下的被墊了。

所以,男人們,你能開始了解女人、體諒女人的經前症候群嗎?

別看見血就嫌髒,別忘了,你們一個個都是從那兒孕育出來的呢,
下次,幫忙洗個床單吧!

从网上无意看到的,一篇很好的文章,值得跟你们分享!

祝我生日快乐


祝我生日快乐今天是我的生日,不知不觉中,我已经22岁了。岁月如流水,在无声无息中流走。转过身,回望走来的路,一切的一切,都在喜怒哀乐中随着时光淡淡地走来,又淡淡地远去。
可是我要感恩,感恩我有很多的爱,疼我的人。我想把以下这首歌送给你们。
“感恩的心”
感恩的心感谢有你
伴我一生让我有勇气作我自己
感恩的心感谢命运
花开花落我一样会珍惜


我要衷心感谢我的父母,是他们给了我生命,把我带来这个世界,让我能体会这美妙的世界
我要衷心感谢我的朋友和亲人,让我乐观的对待每一天,特别是遇到困难的时候,朋友的帮助能够是使你度过难关,那份温暖犹如中送炭,犹如黑暗中的心灯,照亮我们艰辛的路程。

我要衷心感谢我的他,因为有他的包容,他的陪伴,我一点也不孤单。至少当我无助的时候,他一定会默默的在旁边支持我。
今天收到满满的祝福,今晚的梦肯定很甜 :)

谢谢你们!
