Orchids and A Little Pink Bird

Mum's orchids are blooming!

Oh! Look who's here!

It's a little pink bird!  You like the orchids don't you, little pink bird?

Come join me! Chirp ♪♫ •*¨*•.¸¸♥

 

 

This bird is needle felted.  It's the first time I'm making a needle-felted bird.  The legs are quite a challenge to make.  Think I'll do three claws instead of two next time so that it can stand better.

兵马俑 ~ The Terracotta Army

Finally, I got to meet them...


Statue of Qin Shi Huang (秦始皇):

Even the admission ticket looks so pretty:

 

 

 

  The Infantrymen:

 

Terracotta soldiers waiting to be restored from the fragments:

Alright, say this fast without tripping up - Horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses...

 

 

 Look at the tiny bow on his shoe :) :

A cavalryman & his horse:

  

 The Emperor's bronze chariot:

  Xi'an, I'll be back!

 

你離開了 卻散落四周...

歌名: 左右手
作曲: 葉良俊                填詞: 林夕

不知道為何你會遠走
不知道何時才再有對手
我的身心只適應你
沒氣力回頭

* 不知道為何你會放手
只知道習慣抱你抱了太久
怕這雙手一失去你
令動作顫抖 *

# 尚記得　左手邊一臉溫柔
來自你熱暖　在枕邊消受
同樣記得　當天一臉哀求
搖著我右臂　就這樣而分手 #

@ 從那天起我不辨別前後
從那天起我竟調亂左右
習慣都扭轉了　呼吸都張不開口
你離開了　卻散落四周
從那天起我戀上我左手
從那天起我討厭我右手
為何沒力氣去捉緊這一點火花
天高海深　有甚麼可擁有 @
Repeat * # @

留住你　別要走　無奈怎能夠
除下在左右我的手扣　有愛難偷
Repeat @

為何沒力氣去捉緊這一點火花
天高海深　有甚麼可擁有

It's November Already?!!

I don't know where the days have gone.  It's been almost a year since I last blogged, what have I been doing all these months? 

 

 

 

  

  





Doll For A Friend

Sewed a doll for a friend I have not seen for quite some time.  Hope she likes this...



 

 

I've been absent from this blog for the longest time.  What about you?  How have you been?



Conversation

What could they be talking about? The ant & the snail?

Magic Bottle

Niece, H, got this bottle for my mum last Sunday:

Here's a close-up pic of the cute little shrimp...


We're having steamboat for our CNY reunion dinner...No, no, I'm not hinting anything. These 2 fellas will never end up in the pot, that's for sure...they're mum's pets & much too tiny...

Happy Lunar New Year!

That's What Friends Are For...?

Hello! I am Monkee, Alcy's best friend.


Alcy's been extremely busy with work and have neglected her blog badly. As her good friend, I thought I should give her a helping hand so that she may finish work early and hopefully have more time to craft & blog often.

Today's Sunday. While Alcy's doing her weekly groceries shopping, I shall quietly pop by her office to help clear all her outstanding work.

I am on my way to Alcy's office now...


What a beautiful Sunday!



Okay, here we are. Since this is Alcy's office, I thought I should put on a tie. I am a professional Consultant, you know.


Right, let's get started!

Hmm...let's see...this should go here...

...and that one goes there...



................ 10 minutes later ................



I'm done! Easy peasy!

I'm sure Alcy would be very pleased when she comes back to office on Monday and see what I have secretly done for her...




Dear readers, if you need help like Alcy, just let me know and I'll be most glad to offer you my assistance too.



Here's my business card, call me anytime:



See you soon!
