Since DARL is still so busy with work (he barely sleeps…) I thought maybe I should post some updates on the recent jewelries/accessories that we have in store. Again of course, all proudly handmade. :)
I am not sure why but I’ve been very much into pendant. Not so much with earrings, bracelet, ring, toe ring, but very much in pendant. lol. The new accessories in store are hence, pendants. :P Nevertheless, more other accessories are lining up!
The first members in the Nature’s series – The Oat.
The following members in the Nature’s Series – The Fall. I personally like this very much as it really feels carrying some nature and the autumn when it’s on you. :D
And then we have some Punctuation Marks to show our mood.
All pendants are hand-casted via resin and attached to a silver plated bail. Size for the rectangular ones is approximately 4.3 x 3.5 cm (excluding bail). Size for the round ones is approximately 2.9 cm (excluding bail). Flat back on milky white background. Drop me a comment or a mail if you are interested in any of these. We’ll only be producing a maximum of 50 pieces for each design – and the best part is, since it’s hand-casted, there won’t be two exactly same piece. How’s that for a standing out unique piece that speaks your mood, at affordable price? ;)
As Satkuru was asking me of what I was going to post for this week’s theme, I dug around some photos taken early this morning and found a few that seem to be quite suitable. We were trying to snap some home-made studio photos for my little niece and compile into a nice, pretty photo album for her upcoming birthday. But this morning itself, I tried to use the glass door to our small garden as the background, and with no surprise, the background was too bright. :P
Here is she in her ladybird outfit, from my aunt. LOL.
While some of the photos were not usable, some just need some minor editing in iPhoto. We’ll be taking more photos with her in other outfit and hopefully, we can complete it on time. :D
Happy Hunting everyone!
As I was saying that we were extremely busy about 2-3 weeks ago, we were actually working on getting these up on time. :)
The company that I was attached with in a way was having one of their major events some time in the middle of June. I somehow got the idea that if they could have funky t-shirts during their 3-day event, it would look really great. So I suggested to my superior at work and then we came out with these. :)
We had all the working crews wearing similar t-shirts with different colours all over the three days. Orange on the first day, maroon on the second day, and blue on the third day. I forgot to snap photos of the orange and blue ones for the gents’ t-shirt. :D
As I was only there for one day and was already extremely tired, here are two photos taken when I was there, at Switch World 2008, Gurney Plaza.
Two funny Switchers. They were recording me when I was shooting photos of them. LOL.
And the sexy Switcher-boxer. :D
If you ever wonder what Switch is all about, check out their website here. :)
Yesterday both me and DARL took a day off because his sister was coming to Penang for a day tour with three of her friends – one from Taiwan, one from Ipoh, and another from Malacca. The locals knew each other at work as air stewardess and they somehow knew the lady from Taiwan. :D
Apparently they were having city tour around Malaysia. They will be leaving today and the next stop would be Ipoh. They arrived around noon yesterday and me and DARL went meeting them at Dorsett Hotel. First stop, food of course. So we took them to the famous Sister’s Char Koay Teow. To be honest, it was the first time for me too. :D Well maybe because I’m not really a fan of Char Koay Teow and big prawns. I was too busy eating and was kinda ‘phai seh‘ to shoot photos of the food while our guests were eating. :D
After that, DARL thought of bringing them to the Butterfly Farm. The ladies didn’t have much opinions at first but when we arrived there, they started to say that they actually wanted durians, and we eventually found out that their main purpose was actually food! LOL. So we drove up Balik Pulau and first arrived at the Tropical Food Fruit Farm. I was believing that they had this buffet meals but apparently durians were only offered as a testing and according to them, the durians weren’t so fresh. :/ So we left the place (with the boss cursing us I think :P ) and went to a nearby roadside-stall. This is the only time I got to shoot some photos because… I don’t eat durians!!!
While the ladies were busy checking out the stall, DARL’s sister who was also not into durians saw a unexpected guest…
See the snake? It was sleeping just right on top of the place where you were supposed to wash your hands. LOL.
The durians. There were only four of them eating (including DARL) but they ordered quite a big portion and ended up very full. :D
Since I was never a durian-fan, this was also my first time there. :D Check out the choices of durians available. And btw, they have weird names. :D

Early this year I had a bad experience with the KFC outlet at Island Plaza. I haven’t really been there since then. Poor crisis management. See, this is how you are going to loose a customer.
Having said that, about a month ago my brother decided to use his KFC Happy Tuesday card to get 25% off our meals since my mum wasn’t cooking that night. I was kinda reluctant to buy at the Island Plaza outlet but since it’s the nearest to my place, I said to myself, everyone deserves a second chance, right?
We bought our Dinner Plate and Snack Plate back and with no surprise, there were still ‘oil cubes’ under the chicken’s skin – yeah I really hate that. The ‘oil cubes’ make the chicken really not finger lickin’ good at all, and I know this is not the standard from KFC because this only happens in a few outlets, which include this one at Island Plaza.
The day after that I suddenly thought that I should give a feedback to them so that they could improve and it could save my trouble traveling to town to get a piece of chicken when I really crave for one.
So I checkout their website:
Customer feedback is an important way for us to better improve our service. We would like to hear your feedback in the form of suggestions, comments, complaints and any other information related to our company and our services. Your feedback is very valuable to us.
But there is no email to send your feedback. Only one hunting line and one fax number. I was kinda hesitate at first but I thought, OK, once and for all. I dialed the number.
After pressing the options given, I was directed to the operator. I told the lady that I called in to file a feedback and complain. She said:
“Oh for feedback and complain you can talk to Mr XXX or Ms XXX (if I didn’t get her wrongly).”
And so I was put on hold while she transferred my call. Thirty seconds… one minute… two minutes… three minutes… four… five… finally someone picked up the phone.
