An IKEA day

After yoga on 19/12, I went to IKEA myself and spent three hours there for eating at its café and picking candles.

I order meatballs with spaghetti and a plate of French fries. I love IKEA providing yummy food in low price and what I ordered was only USD2.5 . Is HK IKEA cheaper than USA IKEA?

 

After the afternoon tea, I started my journey from the entrance to the cashier. I picked around USD14 for candles and USD7 for a bottle of white wine which I plan to drink tomorrow night that a celebration would be held (only five people). Belows are what I bought:

Three hours in IKEA made me tired and then I went home directly although I had thought to visit more shops for buying X’mas gifts for my family. Till now, I have bought nothing for them =00=

Hey Hey Hey, Santa Claus is coming the town!

What would you do on those days?

What you need is FOOD!

Tonight, almost everything is about FOOD.

You know what, I always feel hungry and I don’t like the feeling of hungry. I would be in bad mood when I am starving. It’s so werid for my friends and they think I am so weird too. Anyway, for me, I would I do not like eating but I just need food. Thank you…

Now, show you the photos about a celebration with my best group mates after all the damn projects and presentations, and our school life being together. We had the dinner at a Germany restaurant – King Ludwig Bellhall.

After the dinner, we were so full but still got mango juice. And we were really full then.

Before I went home, I bought 6 boxes of milk and 1 soya milk at a convenient store. And I love chocolate milk.

Another day, I went out with my other friends and had Chinese food.

And got gifts.

Happy day Happy me! Wish you too!

Hurray

I always say “I am waiting for my school end.” And the day came yesterday, my first exam day and the last. I always know being a student is much better and easier than working but it’s not the way for me to escape from the difficulties. I would rather solve the problems no matter how hard and how the results would be than just run away. 

The thing I did right after the exam was SEWING on fake leather for my earphone. I like it and what do you thing :) ?

1st December

Today, 1^st December, how would you spend your day?

Any special about today?

No, it’s only the first step to X’mas.

(By the way, how was your thanksgiving because there is no such a happy gathering holiday in HK and I watch gossip girl that it is a wonderful day with dishes full of the table!—of course)

As I said, Santa Claus is coming the town. I plan to buy X’mas gifts for everyone in my family same as last year. Buying and sending gifts is the happy moment for the sender and receiver. As the sender, I can enjoy all the buying process and imagine how happy you react (or how disappointed…on the contrast…). As the receiver, you would be really excited about using the product you love (or worry about how to deal with it…oh…) So thinking positively, picking and getting gifts are the joy for everyone! And..they would love what I pick!

And yes, I plan to BUY but still haven’t plan to buy WHAT… and I think I’m gonna spend a day on it not because I have a big family, but because I have no ideas about buying what.

Due to my Note, I can always let photos record my life and share photos with my friends via whatsapp, and share with you here. It’s so convenient to send via it with no cost (whatsapp is free in Android Market). I love taking photos and use apps to decorate them. Anyone could recommend me camera apps which exist in Android? Any share?

the sunset i see everyday. and the other three is IKEA food, another sun, and the song i love listening to recently.

these two photos are from iphone 4. We were finding places to take photos for projects. I like the color of the first one and my pose of the second one. 












 

a photo was taken when i pretended not noticing about the camera..

A Happy Day

I hung out with Angel on Sunday. We had so much fun.

We went to agnis b. to have an afternoon tea and then walked around the Harbor city. There were so many people and took photos with X’mas decorations - Toy Story theme. Although I also wanted to take some, I couldn’t get in there.

I haven’t go out for a really long while due to the damn projects and assignments. In the following two weeks, I still have an important presentation and exam. And then? Everything is finished. I would be graduated. Not student anymore. (CRY…)

ENJOY YOUR LIFE..

Book Binding

I had a taste of book binding in the publication design lesson.

I LOVE it!

I made my own book and I know there is degree course about book binding. It’s hard to image how the course is all about, workshop, history and different binding methods? I would love to take it! After having a dream of being a translator, now I want to be an expert of book binding as I LOVE HANDMADE.

Don’t you?

Here are some videos

They are easy to follow. Have fun.

Never a bad day

Sometimes, things are not just as good as I thought.

I got something unexpected today but I have to stay focus on my test. I told myself leave the unhappiness behind and deal with it later. You know what, things are really unpredictable and I cant really handle it.

When I am down, I shouldn't let myself down. Except myself, who the hell on the world can help me? I do not mean I am the best one but I do believe I can change my own situation. When things happen unexpectedly, don’t be grey or blue.

Keep thinking positively.

And you would get a good result that you would never know.

Hey Cathy, keep smiling and going!!!!!!
