~Another day in an insane mind~

Since I can’t afford to go to Japan for hanami, I’ll make due with what we have here in the UK, right in front of my aunt’s house!

.

Quite a lot of flowers are blooming right now, even though the weather is still spiking in between winter and spring these days. Yesterday was a light jacket day…. went out in just a jumper and sports jacket, and yet today I was in full winter gear and was STILL shivering!

.

Saw it snow this year (at last!!!!) both yesterday and today…. quite surreal to be in a light jacket (yesterday) and have snow fall on you…. even more surreal to be digging up the turf in the garden (this afternoon) and be pelted with snow again! Only lasted a few minutes though… *sigh*

.

On another note, had a hair cut today at last! Lopped off quite a lot of it. Nearly all my dyed bits are gone now~ Back to healthy hair. Front fringes mid nose/mouth length… so unable to hook up behind my ears again…. back to puffing on hair while I try to eat without chewing it in the process, or with it covering my eyes everytime I look slightly downwards…..

.

Note to self: Must buy hair clip as soon as possible….

One of the ultimate joys of life:

.

a pot of hot bubbling tom yam soup

a big bowl of assorted seafood balls

a BIG bowl of veggie

a full packet of tofu

a REALLY big bowl of mushrooms (4 types! guarded by Paddy and Remy)

2 eggs

some glass noodles

a bottle of nice sesame oil

a glass full of ice cold Ribena

.

Eaten on a cold winter’s night, with MasterChief on tv…..

.

*sighs in satisfaction*

.

Oh, by the way…. that’s food for 2~ *grins*

  I do the darnest things when I’m bored…..

How to spend a fullfilling and enjoyable afternoon on a nice and sunny Saturday?

.

.

.

.

Bake super choc. muffins!

Redone the slightly demented looking mousey 2…

.

Now, instead of having pinks eyes and whiskers, I’ve given it cute doe eyes, white whiskers and even eyebrows~

*grins*

.

And meet, Remy the Wolf~

.

*grins*

.

My latest little felt creation that’s much larger than the previous ones…. At least 5 times larger~!

.

Remy is the size of my mobile…. Think he’s going to be a brilliant travel companion for me!

.

.

And my up and coming project.

.

Will probably finish this in a day or 2, depending on how lazy I am… *lol*

YAY!!!!!!!! Recieved my IGS and passport today!!!

.

Brilliant~!!!!!!!!!!

*lol*  What can I say? *grins* Mice breed fast!

My fourth attempt into the world of needle felting.

.

I thought this was appropriate, since it is still Chinese New year.

Has anyone of you heard of Felting before? Well… I haven’t… not until 2 days ago….

.

So…. thanks to my cousin who found her felting starter kit while cleaning up her room, I have been poking and prodding and stabbing balls of fluff, wielding SHARP barbed needles while paying extra attention NOT to add holes into my fingers….

That, however, is NOT the physical manifestation of the state of brain-numbness due to unemployment, but is in the name of Felting, i.e torturing unspun wool into odd shapes that represent cute fluffy animals, which in my case are 2 owls and a penguin (as seen in the photo of this post)

Happy RAT year to you all!
