...finally I have some time to update my blog. I know I have not been a good blogger and have gone missing for ten days. I have been busy studying, booking and planning my Japan trip. At work I am busy writing up some Business Planning...'too many things come at once.' I just do not have the time to concentrate.
...finally tonight I have some time, first off my dh has went for his diving trip with his buddy. How good that sound? I wish I have the PADI license and I can follow them along but too bad...I do not have the time to obtain it. Since hubby is not around for 4-days. I will take this opportunity to do some scrapping and will play with my new kits & stamps which I received both on the same day. First parcel from SC and the second from 2-Peas-in-a-bucket. How fortunate I am? I have waited for the parcel ever since from last week...and finally its here!! Happy and lucky girl today. I did thought of to start scrappin' tonight but I have no energy to drag myself to my scrap room. Well, I guess I will start dreaming of my kits while I am in bed :)
Sorry, there is no post of picture today because I am using a different pc to post this message.
Sweetdreamz~
note: mia = missing in action
p.s. WOW, I {heart} the new SC 'Countdown Widget'

Its ALL about Bangkok
I would say Bangkok is an interesting place that you should visit if you have an opportunity. Well...not all people will like it there but generally people will love Bangkok!! I actually did say before that I dislike Bangkok but the moment I step inside the city, I was telling myself "Oh! it is an interesting place. They even have underground as compare with Kuala Lumpur" Well, besides the big city & beautiful malls...Bangkok does have some drawback that your first impression is "eeww" (lol).
Below are some photos taken on some street foods . . .(obviously I did not try all of them...lol)
I {heart} this roasted coconut juice. This is "A must try" when you are in Thailand/Bangkok :D
I have not been seeing "Coke in glass bottle" anymore. I think it is still taste the best in a glass bottle (somehow)
Here is some pics on the food hall market . . .
Can you tell what it is? . . . you will never believe it, its a whole lot of butter in a giant bowl!!
All look so Yummy and you just can't resist it!!
This is Chinatown in Bangkok. . .Yes, you did not see wrong. It is an elephant walking on the street (lol). I find it surprised and funny too when I first encounter it.
Our first night dinner...looks yummy! Well, I don't think you can see clearly what it is. It is "shark-fin soup" with accompaniment with some chives & beansprouts.
Our 2nd night dinner..."Traditional Thai food and delicious & yummy pork knuckle"
It is amaze to see the whole table filled up with foods. And obviously we have the in-house brewed German Lager Beer. It was a satisfying meal.
Now you see it! 
And its all gone (lol)
That's all my experience for two nights in Bangkok. I hope my info can be able to make your trip as wonderful as mine.
Dinner at Chinatown: No specific address, hope the picture given can lead you there.
Dinner at Rama III: 462/21 Rama 3 Road, Yannawa Bangkok, Thailand 10120 Contact : 62-6781114 662-6781115

monday, 6th april
for the past few days I've been busy with so many things...i just do not know where to begin. last week in Apr 1st, i have to book two airfare tickets to Japan from a travel agent. i have to make sure i call in on the 1st because the promotional ticket start on 1st and end on 15th Apr. it was incredibly & unbelievable airfare price!! 2 return tickets from KL to JP is going for RM2,900 (USD765) i am so thrilled by just hearing the word JAPAN!! yes! i am going for my honeymoon trip in June. all this while, i have been dreaming and wishing to visit Japan another time. its has been 18 years ever since i visited Japan. this time round, i told dh that i must visit Hokkaido, Kyoto & Nagoya (where my gf stay). i just could not believe that i am actually going to Japan. so now we are all set going to Japan and next step we have to start planning on our route & start searching for budget accommodations.
last weekend i spent most of my time online and also self learning in Photoshop. i am an amateur in Photoshop because i only know how to use Illustrator. But lately i said to myself that i have to keep on learning and self improvement (is a must to everyone). i have an interesting site that i would like to share with some of my blogger & friends who may or may not already know about it. i found 'etsy.com' a place to buy & sell all handmade stuffs which i find pretty interesting. if you have time, you can check it out and share with me what do you think? i will keep you informed if i have an etsy store ^.^
sharing with you are some tricks i have learned in lightroom & photoshop;
