{ Grateful Journal ~ June 12, 2013 }

Grateful for nice summer weather we're having here in Hong Kong. With plenty of sunshine and rain. Grateful for the growing roof garden. Mr. C is really into gardening. We bought a few more pots for the garden and a pot of tomato for me. I just love tomato! :D Grateful for finishing 2 more graphic design classes. I'm almost done with this graphic design certificate! 4 more classes to go then I can apply for the certificate. Though I'm not sure if I want to continue it or take some interior design courses instead...I just know that I'm really into doing design. hmm Grateful for the logo design class, I'm very close to finishing my business logo design! :D Grateful for the exercise videos I found on youtube. I'm aiming at doing around 30 min of exercise everyday. I stopped exercising outdoor for a while since it has been raining alot recently. Now with the videos, I can do exercise at home. Grateful for the meditation exercise that I have been doing for a few days. I'm not exactly sure if this is a reason, but I notice that I have a clearer thinking. Grateful for all the love and opportunities around us. Take Care!:D

I got my Nico Digi vq1005 last year and have been taking snaps with it ever since. I like how unpredictable the photos turn out . Sometime I get crappy shots, sometimes I get ones I like.Well ok... many times I get crappy shots but it is just fun. The only complain I have with this little camera is that I need to replace battery often, which is not good since I dont' have rechargeable ones yet.
For those interested, see the vq 1005 info on amazon. Nico Digi is just a more adorable version for vq1005. The spec. are the same. 
Here are snaps I took recently. enjoy! :)

I went to Taipei during the Mid-Autumn Festival with the Chiu Family. :)

{ Happy Tuesday ♥ }

Just love summer with sunlight shinning on various plants creating lovely viberant colours. Even though it is near the end of July, I'm still not half way done with my summer project list. Perhaps I will make them into 2009 list instead... :P

Done my yearly splurge on Sun @ APM. Got a Nico Digi camera, 2 sets of rubber stamps, a nice pen and a Moleskin sketchbook. Have been playing with the digi camera and experimenting with various light setting, going to post photos of it soon. ( I would love to get the Black Bird Fly camera one day, perhaps a gift for myself when I finish my arch study ~~ )

Yummy wudong for a simply weekend meal. A Mini-book I made for Summer 09'. A mini-postcard made for my mini-zine partners. I glued a candy label onto a journal page and posed Mr. Pink Elephant & Ms. Blue Whale for the photo. They're a very cute couple. :) The Chinese translation for Keri Smith 's How to be an Explorer of the World. I was so thrilled when I found this in the bookstore and have to grab it! An adorable rabbit brooch made by my swap partner. Moonlit walk on the beach. ♥ Doulos Book Boat Doulos Book Boat - I love mechanical parts! P.S. Keri's This is not a book is coming out!
