Lucy's Friends Necklace Review
I chose a pink rose necklace and my two sister chose the pink flower and blue butterfly respectively (Image not available anymore). These pendants are so adorable and the images are very clear. I love my pink rose necklace and my two sisters love their's as well. All pendants come with a fancy Silk Zipper Gift bag. The owner of the shop, Sharon is selling these pendants to support homeless kitties.
Look how beautiful these Silk Zipper Gift bags are!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The youngest among us is Jack and guess what he chose?
A super-cute kitty pendant! ($7.95)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
He has been 'nagging' me about the arrival of his pendant. I guess he's just so anticipated to receive his first necklace! When the pendant finally arrived, he was so delighted and kept on saying how cute his kitty was. LOL
*Pendants are made with quality papers applied to a Crystal Clear Glass Tile that’s approx. 7/8" Square (23 x 23 x 5 mm)Complete with a 6mm sterling silver plated bail.
*Pendant is water resistant - NOT waterproof

This necklace is specially made by artisan Amber, who owns a shop and Etsy store. She has developed a passion for arts since she first picked up a crayon. She even spent 8 hours a day to indulge in her own world; a world that connects reality and fantasy --- drawing, when she was in high school.

This lovely heart pendant was made from scratch out of red and pink colored copper wire. It has several glass beads as well as Swarovski crystal. It is fun and cheecky, and a perfect gift for one who is adventurous in nature.

演讲比赛
哈哈。。。美吗?很美吧!
我不喜欢写冗长的文章,尤其写文部落格的。 那就长话短说吧!比赛成绩揭晓,南华国中的代表成功了!高中组代表彦维得了季军,咏盈也得了优秀奖。我获得亚军,另一位初中代表勇夺卫冕。你们猜猜看她是谁?
提示:她姓林,有英文名。父母皆是老师。
其实,我并不期望拿第二或第一,因为前两名都得再代表县去参加州赛。这种心理压力是很巨大的。偷偷告诉你:我会怯场!
无论如何,还是感谢老师们的指导,没有你们,就没有我! 在这里顺道祝全天下的老师:
刚才的答案是:林恩心!在此恭贺你!夺冠!

Story to live by...
There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only seethe world, I will marry you.
有一位瞎女很討厭自己因為眼睛瞎了。她也討厭每個人,唯一不討厭的是她的男朋友,因為他都常守在她身旁。於是她對她的男朋友說:「如果能讓我看到這個世界,我愿意嫁給你!
One day,someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.
有一天,有人捐了一對眼精給她。當紗布解開時,她能夠看到一切,包括她的男朋友。
He asked her, 'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.
男朋友問她:「現在你可以看到這世界,你愿意嫁給我嗎?」那女孩看了男朋友是個瞎子,他那對蓋上眼皮的眼睛嚇到了她,這是她無法想像。她想:要我嫁給他而一生對着他這個樣子,我無法接受。
Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.
於是,她的男朋友很傷心的離開她,幾天後寫了字條給她:「親愛的,請你好好照顧你的眼睛,因為它不是屬於你的之前,它是屬於我的。」
This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situations.
這也是人的腦會如何做當情況有所變動。只有少許人會記得他或她之前的生活及誰會在身旁當他或她處在困境的時候
Life Is a Gift
生命是一份禮物
Today before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.
今天,當你要講一句不善之言--請想想那些無法講話的人
Before you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
當你要埋怨食物的味道時--請想想那些沒有食物吃的人
Before you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone who's crying out to GOD for a companion.
當你要埋怨你的先生或太太時--請想想那些在向上天哭訴要一個伴侶的人
Today before you complain about life - Think of someone who died too early on this earth.
今天,當你要埋怨生活時--請想想那些太早離開人世間的人
Before you complain about your children - Think of someone who desires children but they're barren.
當你要埋怨小孩時--請想想那些渴望小孩而無能生育的人
Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or sweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.
當你要爭論沒有人清理屋子時--請想想那些住在街邊的人
Before whining about the distance you drive Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
當你在哀訴駕駛的路程--請想想那些同樣的路程以代步的人
And when you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.
當你很疲備而埋怨工作時--請想想那些無工作,殘疾的,及那些多麼希望擁有你這份工作的人
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another - Remember that not one of us is without sin.
當你想要指著人或互相譴責時--請記得沒有一個人是無罪
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on your face and think: you're alive and still around.
當壓抑的念頭讓你無法振作時--請你笑一笑想想:你還活著存在世間!

Marmar.etsy.com : Review and Interview
A parcel by Mark Poulin...It's a good thing he used stamps because I'm a philatelist!
And guess what I have here? A super-cute Aquarians are Original in the little box!
Yipee! I’m so delighted to receive the Aquarians are Original necklace from Mark at marmar.etsy.com because I’m a genuine January baby. Actually, I found out that Mark was born in the month of January too and that my birthday is only a day before his!
This lovely necklace is made from sterling silver and measuring an inch tall. This necklace ships on a 16 inch cord with a sterling clasp. The design is really simple and nice and I really LOVE it. See, it looks so sweet!
Mark has a huge collection of cute necklaces in his shop and to be frank, I really wanted to have each one of them. Looking at these lovelies makes me recall the daydreams I had had when I was a little girl. Let me tell you a secret…I dreamt that I could fly like Superman by tying a towel to my T-shirt. Shhh…Don’t tell anyone. ><
My interview with Mark:
1. Hi, please introduce and tell me something special about yourself.
My name is Mark Poulin, I live in Oakland California right over the bridge from San Francisco. I love to draw and create cartoon characters. All my designs spring to life from my sketch books. In a lot of ways I am more of a designer than a jeweler, my designs use the simplest form of metalwork to get my drawings into a 3-D world.
2. How was your shop started?
Before jewelry I worked with clay. My pieces where always breaking from earthquakes or wild parties. I decided to take a metal class in hopes of making more durable goods. A friend talked me into taking a jewelry class and I was hooked from the start.
3. Who/What inspires you?
I am inspired by pop culture and low brow art. I love comics, zines, graffiti and fashion.
4. What handmade possession do you most cherish?
Right now, the hat my Mom knitted for my 4 year old.
5. Which items in your shop receive most compliments from customers worldwide?
Orbit Girl seems to appeal to a wide variety of people. You just look at her and your imagination starts to make it's own story about her.
6. Which item from your shop do you like the most? Why?
I'm obsessed with this little monkey right now. He's brand new, kind of off center and clumsy and so cute I can't stand it.
7. How do you promote your Etsy shop?
I have a link from web page, but so far have done well with word of mouth.
8. Make a wish!
Oh I so want to have the time to make t-shirts and stationary and more time for drawing and painting !!
*Do you sell your creations on other websites/places other than Etsy?
