too much events occured in past few weeks. not to mention.. crazy business to finish making product before the market. juggle myself with crafting, working, label making, lino spree, laptop problems and some health problems. aiyark~~ i should manage my time better.
my lappy, has been broken.. and need to send to HP service center.. due to driver or hardware probs.. so i need to break from label making for awhile. (except kak mas/ via. i’ll done yours:) ). and last two days, my right eye get infected and forced me to stay at home. i plan to continue sewing but i doze in dreams after took medicine. then yesterday, i spent my time with C and bought some fabrics near my home.
I haven’t go to buy lino for lino spree.. due to my health. if any of the buyers want to back out. i totally understand and i will fully refund all the money.hee if they willing to wait, i will try my best to buy it by next week.
last market on urbanscape was great. will be updates soon! but i don’t satisfied with my products.. due to my negligences. i’m futher sorry for that. luckily for pipit’s, ira my GGF willing to give me a help in sewing and planning to sell her homemade baking too!! delicious brownies, muffins and cupcakes to come!!!
this weekend will be busy for me.. Pipit’s will be on sat and C’s birthday on sunday! i haven’t done preparation for both! still thinking what should i make for his birthday. another choco cake?? or layered choco and vanilla? haha
i’m thinking to take a break for awhile from bazaar and WBL after the pipit’s. but i will still open for any leftovers though.
till then..

it such an ironic when i did think about this matter for quite sometime now. and it kicks me by surprise when i read the first topic in Yahoo! about “Prototype Nokia phone recharges without wires”.
have you face dilemma when your phone runs out battery and you just need to use it for emergency. or NOT haha and its such a pain when you know there are much credits balance in your phone but you can’t use. why? because your phone off battery and you have no charger. haha
not believe me? read this:
Nokia, however, has taken another baby step in that direction with the invention of a cell phone that recharges itself using a unique system: It harvests ambient radio waves from the air, and turns that energy into usable power. Enough, at least, to keep a cell phone from running out of juice.
While “traditional” (if there is such a thing) wireless power systems are specifically designed with a transmitter and receiver in mind, Nokia’s system isn’t finicky about where it gets its wireless waves. TV, radio, other mobile phone systems — all of this stuff just bounces around the air and most of it is wasted, absorbed into the environment or scattered into the ether. Nokia picks up all the bits and pieces of these waves and uses the collected electromagnetic energy to create electrical current, then uses that to recharge the phone’s battery. A huge range of frequencies can be utilized by the system (there’s no other way, really, as the energy in any given wave is infinitesimal). It’s the same idea that Tesla was exploring 100 years ago, just on a tiny scale.
Mind you, harvesting ambient electromagnetic energy is never going to offer enough electricity to power your whole house or office, but it just might be enough to keep a cell phone alive and kicking. Currently Nokia is able to harvest all of 5 milliwatts from the air; the goal is to increase that to 20 milliwatts in the short term and 50 milliwatts down the line. That wouldn’t be enough to keep the phone alive during an active call, but would be enough to slowly recharge the cell phone battery while it’s in standby mode, theoretically offering infinite power — provided you’re not stuck deep underground where radio waves can’t penetrate.
Nokia says it hopes to commercialize the technology in three to five years.

i’m not really so called hardcore-sewer (adeke ayt neh?). i’m newbies in sewing.. if you read my blog you may know when do i start this madness. haha but why do i start sewing? holding there, this might be long..
I’m known as brutal-tomboy-punkrock girl among my friends. they said, there are no girly-lady-attitude in me (Which i totally agreed. blame thought-i’m boy while i grow up and environment haha!) so if you know me back when i’m a teen. i know nothing about baking, cooking, and sewing except that i widely know as art-lovers.. i love to draw and make something out of papers, making greeting cards, presents.. and coloring.
then somehow, out of nowhere i start fall in love in baking (i remembered C teasing me about i know no cooking haha) and start making muffins, cookies, cupcakes and cakes. then i start to improve my skills in cooking (moving from maggie and telur goreng) and i cooked spagetti most of time (which loathed C for quite sometime haha). later when dynat start sewing, its kinda inspire me to try on.. and when my mom pass me her sewing machine, the sewing-fire start to struck me! so i kept sewing and knowing some craft friends. and my mom encourages me to sell some my stuffs.. that how i start business and still try to learn about selling my craftmades.
i think this is how i try to show people a girl side of me.. trying to preserve the idea that i’m still a lady despite of my brutality haha so people, don’t stereotype people who is brutal don’t know how to be a lady. they just need time to grow up. ngehehe take me as the proof. haha
ps: i know how much i try to be a girly person.. like wear heels, dress or lady apparels, trying to be fashionable, know some basic sewing, baking and cooking.. i still a punkrock inside hahha
pss: to alvi, this is my side of story:). do share yours too!

i rarely talk about my life in the blog. reasons: i just not really a person who can tell you my story except you’re in front of me than you can hear me ranting about my life endlessly haha!. nevertheless,
1) i start internship on 8th june at TM training centre, jln semarak so i’m trying to adjust my time with working environments. i woke up at 6am and reached office by 730am.i spent roughly rm20 per day using MEX highway hahaha i rather spent more than heading myself to endlessly-crazy-traffic jam in KL. if you’ve been in it, you know how bad it is.
2) due to internship i still try to manage my craft-timetable. mostly i’ve been shot to sleep by night haha working in tiresome sometime. so for my customer, i terribly sorry. i know i should do better.
3) add up to that, i flunk my paper (pela! paper ssh pass lak!) so i need to trade my nighty-nite to study-nite! darn~~ now i need to double my efforts in crafting. adoi! wish me luck and pls pls no more supp!
4) and.. because i still new in KL area.. i lost twice! on my 1st day and can’t found petrol station plus traffic jam which cause me reached home at 9pm! haha
5) BIG thanks to my superdad (definitely need to buy father day gift!) to help me through difficulties when
- last wednesday, i accidentally left my CARKEY in the car and just realized after 5pm (nk blk baru perasan! cis! skin~~~) and he, my superdad! whooshing away to KL from kajang to be my hero. haha
- yesterday, my car’s battery went dies out~~ i’m not sure why. i did make sure all necessary is off.. (light off- check!, aircond off-check!, radio off-no radio, key in my purse- check check!, lock all doors- check!) so its not my faults. so my superdad again, zooming to KL from kepong, amazingly fast! (20mins) to save me! haha (thanks to namie and friends for trying to help)
lesson learned:
1) pls skin go out early! (last thursday i reached to office at 830am sharp!- not a good example for interns)
2) pls pls check your key and your car before you left it
3) finish all customer orders fast!
4) go study la~
ps: lalala i told ya i’m talkative one actually haha! gotcha!
pss: should i or should i not have a post about interns eh?

i always find it is hard to find beautiful fabric design especially in malaysia and most of your fav will be sold out!. so why not making your own fabrics ! wee i’ll show you how with pictures!
things you needs:
1) scissor
2) A4 size fabrics (preferably cottons or linen)
3) A4 size sticker paper
4) inkjet printer
5) your choice of design

how to:
1) make sure your design in a4 size. you can edit it in any software you know.
i used design from triciarennea
2) iron your fabrics and make sure its wrinkle-free. use sticker paper and carefully stick at the back of your fabrics.

3) cut any excess fabrics. ( the fabric must cut to a4 size so it can fit in printer feeder)

4) put the fabric into the printer feeder in correct side. (try using paper to know which side of paper it prints)
5) print!!
6) let the ink dried or use hair dryer if you just can’t wait to use it.

7) carefully pull the sticker from the fabrics.

8 ) iron your fabrics to make it less faded easily.
9) make any crafts you want to show off your DIY
fabrics! (note: remember this fabrics is not washable!)



i made boxy pouch small size and i layered the fabric with adhesive film so it not stains easily heee:P
happy trying!!

have i told you about my history with cats? i think i did post up some about me having 10cats and all died apparently. haha so i’m not really a good catkeeper or even petkeeper haha. so i found this 2cute kittens at the back of my kitchen. i was surprised because it was my 1st time saw them. and they’re both cute and bit fluffy (agk berisi beb). i try to catch them but they run even faster. haha so i think its better for both kitten to have their own home.. someone to adopt them. i don’t think my mom will take care of them as we grew allergies to cats. so next time i meet them i’ll try to take the picture. so you can see how adorable they are and maybe adopt them?. pls help me giving a great home. such a waste to let some cute kittens being not cute anymore. any cat lovers??
update: finally get capture some pixies. but still not clear enough to show the justice how cute they are. they keep running from me. so i can only bait them with food and take some pixies. even that, they still running away haih~ oh actually, they’re 3 haha will try again later when they’re sleeping haha
