Creative + Malaysian + Blogger = Award.

Creative Malaysian Blogger Award. Keke. Yeap thanks to Jace, I’ve been awarded! :)

Took me a while to actually do this – I’m sorry Jace, I’m so busy at work that I really believe that I’m slowly loosing control of my life now. Seriously something that I need to rethink and reorganise.

OK back to the award. The rules are:

  1. Put the logo on your blog or post.
  2. List your 5 sources of inspiration.
  3. Nominate 5 other Malaysian blogs which demonstrate some form of creativity.
  4. Be sure to link to your nominees within your post.
  5. Let them know that they have received this award by commenting on their blog, and if possible, make sure they follow these 6 steps too!
  6. Share the love and link to the person from whom you received your award.

OK rule #1 done. Rule #2, my 5 sources of inspiration are:

  • My dog. Definitely my dog, Xiao Bi. She probably never realise that she was born as a Golden Retriever and was supposed to be easy going as one of the best temperament dog. When she was a pup (she is still a pup actually, turning 2 next month), she barked and barked and barked at people or animals who passed by for a continuous 2 hours or more, even though the object was already long gone. She dug big holes in the garden just to see if there was any gold in there, like this:

And the inspiration from her has always been: THERE IS NO RULES TO FOLLOW! :P

  • My family. Sometimes just by listening to their conversations, I could have something in mind that I’d quickly jot down in my journal to refer back later.
  • Books. I don’t read a lot nowadays, although I wish I could. But reading never fail to inspire me.
  • My new garden. It’s amazing to see how things on earth grow, live, and die, back to the earth. It’s even more inspiring to see someone who had killed a cactus before (yeah, that’s me) could grow something.
  • Well I hate to say this, but perhaps the world wide web. There are always so many info available everywhere and arrgggghhhh, sometimes I just can’t stop reading!

OK now the 5 nominees. I’m really not good in nominating people. Let’s see…

  1. Shu-Yin’s Sanctuary – Shu-Yin is my beloved cousin. I like that she is always experimenting new baking recipes and keep posting the photos, which is, quite tempting eh. >.<
  2. Journey so far … – Me and Eileen used to work together. A really creative and my-type of girl. :D
  3. satkuru.com – Me and Sat also knew each other when working. He is not an artist nor a crafter but he has got funny ideas all around. And I like his way of writing his post, makes me laugh. :P
  4. White Petals – Jasmine is the gf of one of my virtual friends. I like the way she plays with her photos in her blog.

I think I’ll have to break the rules this time and stop at 4 nominees. I do like and I read other blogs that I have in my blogroll but I just don’t know who should I be putting on number 5. @.@

Time to get to work so, perhaps will leave comments for them later. :)

First Blog Award!

Special thanks to Tracy from Dust of Enchantment! I have never received a blog award before – pathetic… but anyway, let’s see what I should do here. :D

Rules: To name 7 things I love and then tag 7 other blogs.

7 Things I Love:

  1. My family – including my dear boyfriend and my forever rebellious Golden Retriever, Xiao Bi.
  2. Buffet dinner – I’m petite but when it comes to yummy buffet with fresh seafood, pasta, grilled beef and more, I’ll kill. LOL!
  3. My comfy Crocs – I don’t always buy shoes but I have to have a pair of Crocs. I have weak feet.
  4. My iMac – I don’t like the crappy internet connection over here but I’d love to love them, if they ever improve.
  5. My muffins – I started making muffins because my dear boyfriend loves muffins. Now it’s turning into a hobby cum casual business. Feels good. :)
  6. My vegetable seedlings – they probably need even more love than I can imagine because they just won’t grow! >.<
  7. My life – I think I’m pretty blessed by having lots and lots of nice people around in my life. I have great family, loving boyfriend, naughty dog, funny friends. I wouldn’t mind to have a little more $$$ but it’s OK for now. LOL!

OK now I should pass this award to another 7 blogs. I don’t know most of the blog owners but hopefully they’ll do it. :P
