Mother's Day Project @ Kristus Aman

So usually I take part in doing project with belle when she is around of course.
This round I decided to help out with the KAYM Ministry. So since I am in a rosary phase at the moment, why not do rosaries for our lovely mothers of KA. We are talking about 400++ mothers in the church.

So hence this project was planned about 2 weeks from Mothers Day and these are the final outcomes of it. It was very meaningful to me and the people who got involved.Actually it is pretty simple to do. Its stringing 10 beads into one and tie it up and add a cross at the knot and tadahhh. See I just gave out a free lesson to making a simple rosary. I have one in my purse for protection.
PS. I also feel that when I want to buy something I look at it and think do I actually need it or not. My parents will be so proud.

In addition to that we also have 2 bouquet of flowers which is sort of an offering to Mother Mary.Another thing that I got out of this is that I enjoy being in a church. We are all different backgrounds and ages and almost everything else , yet we can get along as we share one thing in common, which is our religion. I need this in my life and I am sure I have grown from this, spiritually and emotionally. So good job KAYM we really made the mothers of KA HAPPY, APPRECIATED, LOVED and proud.

Happy Mother's Day, mummy.

Thats all for now

11 March 2010

I like to start stuff and never follow throught it.

In my last post I apologize for some spelling mistake and grammar mistakes that both my parents have commented and corrected me.. hehe.. when I have more time will read it and correct it.

There is a man who use to work for my boss and he keeps on saying life is so difficult as he is trying to sell his land or something la. He has all this big big dreams like building a university first was for car mechanics then medicine and the latest is research to help the durians stay on the tree when it is rainy seasons.

Well He still has a dream right. I dont know if its fair of me to call him a professional dreamer.

So what do I actually want? Study more? Work for another company?

I feel that I want the experience more than anything as I really was so safe and didnt really have the college experience. Well it didnt really help that I was in a relationship . But its not good to blame it on other people but myself as I allowed it..

Now I feel that perhaps if I dream a little perhaps the answer will come and of course praying and listening to God will also help.

To my parents, I am sure they will allow me to do what I want. Time to decide.. I have a deadline. I am not getting younger and I cant depend on my parents forever and ever right.

I remember my dad saying to me last time I need to find a rich husband to continue this kind of lifestyle which I am having now.. haha

Well I wont need that if I start doing what I love and have passion for and be an independant woman before I start dating again.. Hope I can keep to my own word.

PS if love comes knocking you just have to open your heart k..

Thats all

Knowing your roots

Not many people have heard of Taiping. It is actually a small town in Perak where my parents are from actually. So Chinese New Year has always been a time where the whole family meets in Taiping where my grandfather is now.

It is a tradition that the first few days meaning reunion and first day of New Year should be spent with the Father's side.

As I could recall we usually have 2 dinners every night.. Meaning we will eat with mummy's side and then with daddy's side.

I enjoy being at mummy's side because there are children our age and we get along pretty well. The restuarant that we eat there is a shop that sells almost everything but most of all we remember the toys and sweets. We always give them bussiness during time.

Daddy's side is mostly the grandaunties, yes you heard me right. My Ah Mah and Ah Kong pass away a while back already and yet there is all that love in that house for us. At that time was me and Dennis only so we actually got a lot of angpow as we were the only children and then came Marcus long after that. The food in that house was never shot of delicious. Seriously. All home-cooked and always had our favourite food. Soup, fish, vegetable, chicken and the list can go on and on.


This is my daddy's side house.

It is on the main street.
Marcus popping his head out.

This is a picture of my ancesstors. There is a priest amongs them too. Father James Saw, who will be missed.
Mother of pearl furniture. The pieces in the living room.
You must be wondering why I even place this picture up. This house experience the war times too. Hence a small dent to the grill.
Look at this amazing piece of food carving. I remember shouting into it calling "Ee Poh Ee Poh". They are of a certain age so have to call them really loud. Now there is only one Ee Poh left.
Happy Chinese New Year. Hope you have safe trips back to your home town and spend time with the people you love the most. They are your true friends..

Love
Kristie

Intersting Things that I plan to try soon.. hehe

I was at MPH Midvalley when I came upon this book where you can do all this stuff out of a pair of jeans.. Yes I did say jeans. hehe,,

I was telling belle and she said are you sure you want to cut up a pair of your own pair of jeans. which is pretty true, it not cheap you know. So she came out with this idea that we can actually buy a pair of jeans for about RM 10 at this Malay Market which could either be stolen or something. hehe.. but will just wash them before trying that.

This first one is called laundry bag and I know it will be a really big project but I mean I am up for a challenge .


so cute right. It would be so cool when you check that in. and the instructions are pretty straight forward. No measurements thought.

Next a simple hairband. I love it.
Cut cut and stick thats all.. really simple. and little ribbons..

Recently I bought a bikini top at DFO for RM 3. I didnt realise that there were sizes but I just bought it. Its a little big but at least it covers all . Know what I mean.
I think I will blog again on how my small projects turn out. But first I need to get a pair of jeans.
Thats all for now. hehe
