Awakenings

Have written nothing for a long long time. It seems a bit difficult to start writing again.... Today, I re-watched the “Awakenings”, a 1990's movie. So touching, so nice movie. There is a line: “People nowadays don't know how to appreciate simple things...”, so true. We always forget the most simple thing that we should apprepicate; the bright blue sky, the little flower on the road, the little kids who are rushing to the school, the coffee shop girl who is making coffee for you...etc, etc. So many things that can make us happy because we are still alive and can expeirence that living world. A patient said she knew that it was not 1926 but she need it to be since in the past year during her “sleeping” in the hospital, she experienced nothing. Life without experience is not life anymore, no matter whether it's bad or good. Once, Robert DiNero asked the doctors if he can get a “holiday” from the hospital. Doctors asked him what would he do when having this holiday. He replied: “Go out for a walk, relax, have fresh air, and talk to others.” Very clear and simple wishes. Do we talk to others when we have time? It seems that we don't; we seldom talk about our true feelings, seldom talk to those around us, our family; there is lack of communications between people. Living, communicating and to experience are essential in our life which make it fruitful. umm....I have to do them all again from today......

I was wordless during the trip

03.10.2009 The Mid-Autumn Festival Eve

03 Oct 2009 was the eve of Mid-Autumn Festival. I went to Tai Hang to watch the traditional Fire Dragon dance. That traditional event held every year during the three days of the Mid-Autumn (base on the lunar calendar, it's 15th day of the eight month of each year).

This is the third time, I went there to watch the fire dragon dance. Here are some photos of the event.

Volumn 4 of VivaLaModa

Orange Road Set

I have a sweet sister, Jan who always help me promoting my Etsy. It's already the third order from her colleagues and this time it's a special custom order. I was requested to design a necklace to match with my Orange Road Earring that had been listed in Etsy for months.

I tried very hard to think about the necklace and was worried that I could not find the same materials that make the two become one set. I started to read lots of books for inspiration. Sometimes, I even dreamed about making the necklace. The image finally come to my head and the whole set is ready to go to it's new home tomorrow. Hope that it's new master like it as I do.
