A New Start
The first quarter of year 2014 seemed to have passed all too quickly, I seemed to have lost track of time. This may have to do with the fact that I stopped the habit of writing down my daily to-do items since the start of the year. Printed out some DIY daily to-do lists for […]

Creative Monday
With the chalkboard project completed on Sat., I decided to start a new project in the studio today. Had been wanting to find a way to recycle paper for a long time, and I just thought of an idea today, I’m gonna code name the project Paper Sofa! Bought some supplies and started the project […]

Receipts
Not too sure why I kept all the purchase receipts of 2012. The sheer volume testifies the consumerist nature in our society. I wonder how many of those receipts are from purchases of things I NEED rather than things I WANT. If I’m ever going to make resolutions this year, one of the items should […]

Receipts
I have the habit of saving the receipts of my purchases. Within a year or so, the collection is more than enough to create a huge stuffed origami ball! The ball will serve as a self-reminder to move away from the materialistic lifestyle, and to only buy things that I need and not things that […]

To-do Lists
Started writing down my daily to-do lists on square pieces of paper early this year. Each piece documents 1 week of to-dos. Now close to the year-end, I almost have enough folds to complete an origami ball! Year-end is a period for reflection. The ability to reflect and learn from experience is part of what […]

Waste Recycling
Was waiting for my brother-in-law in the car when I saw a truck in front picking up cubes of compacted cardboard/paper, probably going to be shipped to China for recycling ultimately. Sometimes I fancy about starting a small company that helps transform goods no longer needed/wanted into desirable and useful products.
