Jingle Bells

I like raining when I sleep but seriously not rainning nonstop for the whole day.
Raining all day long from yesterday night till now. (more than 24 hours)
Kuantan most severe flood in 41 years happened.
Almost everywhere are flooded even places that never being flood for past 20 years. I'm lucky that my house still safe and sound.
All Kuantanese are praying for the rain to go away. PLEASE STOP RAINING!!
The weather totally sucks to ruin the Christmas mood. wtf.
You don't feel wanna go out while raining cats and dogs, right?
I can't go out. Well, just blog about something Christmasly.

Merry Christmas

&

Happy New Year

Greetings from Mr. Owl

Oh hey y'all, Merry Christmas eve!! *winks*.
Anyone busy unwrapping your X'mas pressie under the Christmas tree?
I swear if I have my own house one day, I gonna decorate a Christmas tree at the living room and put presents under it.
If can I want a fireplace, too. I always feel so warmth by seeing the logs burning and sitting beside a Christmas tree with the yellow lightnings and of course accompany by someone I love.

Just exactly like this!

 Isn't it so lovey dovey?

But...... I think is not going to happen unless I move to a country which has winter.

I will be satisfy by just a Christmas tree in the living room.

I don't have time to hunt for Christmas gifts.
So, here are some handmade Christmas cards for my babes.
I like making cards. I know sometimes there are imperfections on the cards but I hope people who receive my card will appreciate them ❤  

I also sent out some postcards during this merry month.
I know when some of you receive it will probably already comes to year 2013.
But, I still want to wish you guys Merry Christmas.

Just bought some Russian Doll stickers from Daiso.

Can't wait to stick on the postcards to make them look cuter.

I finally bought the gold nail lacquer.

Not forget to paint the nails in GOLD to pair with the season greetings.

 ❤

(again rain rain please go away)

I'm a postcrosser.

I joined postcrossing about a year ago. It is a postcard crossing project.

"Send a postcard and receive a postcard back from a random person somewhere in the world!"

Not many active postcrossers in Malaysia. I wonder why? Maybe people are lazy.

Well, is so easy that you can just sign up. Request an address from the website. Then, mail your postcard to the address. Wait to receive a postcard. Lastly, register the received postcard in the system. You can even do direct swaps.

Is so fun! I got excited everytime i received a new postcard or a message that sent by the receiver. I'm glad that sometimes my postcards can made someone smile.

" You really made my day yesterday when I came home from a hard day's work and found your card....................   From Marcel."

"Thank you for the card! I like it very much............. From - Ministrialia - "

"I love you postcard of cute cuttlefishes. I'm going to show my children............ From Nancy."

However, is so hard to get unique painted postcard at here. What i saw were only tourist postcards. Urghhh.... I don't want just send tourist postcards. Well, I'm trying to get differences type of postcards when I travel to other places.

So far, these are the postcards I had been receiving.

I don't really like receiving tourist cards. Among those postcards, below are few that I like most.

Up: I think the words on lorry are advertise some kind of oil. -Hong Kong-

Down: Clothes hanging behind some old apartment.  -China-

p/s: I like the oldies feel or should I say vintage style?

Up: Hanoi's autumn -Vietnam-

Down: "Barong" dance -Bali-

(Both are from colleagues)

Heartworm carried by mosquitoes and live in the blood vessel of dogs and cats. 

-Canada-

Left: "Gib niemals auf" = Never give up! -Austria-

Right: "Peiyu" hand painted about what she saw along her journey -Taiwan-

I learnt some new things through the postcards. Yes, keep learning!

One of my Real to-do list.

Before this, I never know there's a place called Mink, a capital of Belarus. Belarus? Oh, where's this country? My geography sucks. So, I wiki-ed that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belarus

And heartworm?! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirofilaria_immitis

Many dogs will show only little or no sign of infection even after the worms become adults. It can cause severe weight loss, coughing up blood and finally congestive heart failure. So, dog's lovers beware of this tiny creature. 

Not forget that the stamps from the postcards are beautiful!!

Wolves, island, ladies, Queen of England, buildings and so on.

Here's the link if any of you who read this post feel interested to join the project:  Postcard connecting the world

Happy postcrossing!
