This was an in-class assignment, we were given a picture and was supposed to do a quick sketch of her.  Can someone tell me her name? Because I just can’t remember what her name is….

I followed Martha Stuart’s site and made this for my mom! It’s somewhat easy and can be a lot of fun if you have cute fabrics! I just some leftover fabrics in my fabric bin and I think for my first attempt it turned out good

This is actually the 2nd shirt that I made from my old bedsheet.   Since I just started making clothes with the techniques I learned from school, I didn’t want to use any expensive fabrics I bought from the stores to make clothes.  You can’t really tell the details on the shirt but I cut squares off from one of my scarf and pieces them together kinda like a peacock in the front of the shirt and sew a few lines down.  For sure this is the shirt I’d wear a few times before it falls apart

I love taking snapshots of people because you catch the most amazing moment!

Nothing is more beautiful than a baby’s smile, the purest happiness:)

I’ve never realized how beautiful Taiwan is till now seeing it for almost 7 years….

After 6.5 years being in the US not being able to go back, I finally went back home.

I loved the city life and was also awed by the beautiful scenery in the countryside.

The pic is of the sun moon lake, I still remember visiting this place with my family when I was little…

It’s just such a different experience visiting it after you grew up, you just come to appreciate the nature so much more…

However, I got sick when I was visiting there so I couldn’t even enjoy the delicious food there…wee o~

There are so many more pictures and stories I’d love to share from the Taiwan trip, I’ll just need to sit down and do this sometimes

It’s been forever since I’ve updated my blog because I’m lazy.   Sometimes life is just so much more fun outside of this virtual world so I’d rather spend my day walking under the sun then in front of the computer….anyways, there’s this new store “total wine” open by my house, which is a terrible thing for a beer drinking gal like me! They’ve got so many selections of wine and beer I was like a fat kid in a candy store walking down the aisles….I came across this beer and was very curious about what sweet grass would taste like.   Dang! exactly like what I imagined it’d be, it was smooth, sweet, grassy (you know sometimes you can taste the grass when people are mowing their lawn outside and you can smell it and taste it in your mouth?), and strong.  I was for sure ready for bed after one bottle, me being a light weight might be it tho.  Thought I’d post it w/ a xmas touch even tho xmas has already passed…

Having a Mexican roommate is great! Not only does she understand how you feel being a foreigner, but she also teachers you how to do some Mexican things!  The first experience with pinata is great, I’ve always wanted one for my birthday since I heard about it.  With my friend’s birthday, I finally got to experience the joy of bashing a pinata.  The only concern I have about a pinata is….the candies fall on the floor!!!! and the floor fo sho is not so clean…even with the wrapper (not the fully enclosed one, it’s those wrapper twisted by the end), my fear for swine flue kicks in…..

And you should know who I am by the Flamingo that I’m holding

Being a designer, I see things a bit differently than others, I often say so and so looks like that celebrity and no one sees it but me.  And this time I think my BB looks exactly like the monster from Where the Wild Things Are! So for his BD, I decided to make him the monster and myself Max in this painting(not really a painting since it’s done with marker + pencil).  What do you think? Doesn’t he look like the wild thing?
