What I Pledged

  • INACTIVE

July: In progress of moving, will get back to the messages later

29 Jan 2008: Someone told me about the time lag of my mail (the date I clicked "Sent" & message partner and the date of postage stamped). Time lag of 1 - 2 days might due to the region time, few days might due to holiday or the PO I went is a mini PO. the average situation is that mails will reach you within 2 weeks (US, Canada, UK, Australia), 3~4 weeks (Europe), 2~3 months (Costa Rica, Brazil). However, I have no control over the efficiency of PO. You can always drop me a message for clarification. What I can ensure you is, I only click "Sent" when the mail is sent (even when I'm sending late, the button will be clicked late too). Thanks to her whom address this problem to me =)

19 Jan 2008: Dear partners, have the swaps reach you? Please do not hesitate to drop me a message if the mail does not reach you =) I sent each and every swaps that I clicked "sent" ^_^ If the mail is missing, I'll be happy to re-send you =)

Note

  • Please inform me when you got the things I sent you, especialy the forum tags/trades =)

  • If anything that I sent you is damaged during the mailing process, do let me know, I'll TRY to replace another one for you =)

  • I had my job offer letter lost before, so please, if you didn't receive anything that I sent you, let me know before you drop a "1" rating, I can replace the package =)

  • I don't mind if you send my things late but PLEASE INFORM ME about it =)

  • Do take note of the region time, which the postage stamping might be a day or 2 days later. I'll also let you know if I sent the items in a mini post office, which usually will delay the postage stamping =)

About Me

Hello there~ I'm a Malaysian chinese from a wonderful island, Penang. I'm still a university student, finished my courses, undergoing 6-month industrial training in a city named Kuala Lumpur, which is the capital of my country. Well, I'll be graduating soon ^^

I like to collect some used/unused stuff, like buttons, strings, wrappers, badges, stickers (especially 3Ds), etc. My mum always mumble me for treasuring lots of "rubbish". I kept them in my wardrobe so that she won't found them and throw them while I'm not at home =X

I like handmade/homemade stuff, such as puppets, cards, books, accessories, ANYTHING DIY~ Altered stuff are nice too~ I often do some paintings, drawings, sketching, scrapbooking, crafts and baking (although the outcome is not so good) ^_^ I don't really like sports, but hiking is ok for me =)

I have a bunch of books at home - DIY handcrafts, sketch books, comic, etc... Comics that I'm reading now are: One Piece, Bleach, Detective Conan & Naruto. My favourite comic is BLACK JACK (the brilliant doctor who cures ANYTHING). I prefer books with many pictures but less words, however, I also read novels and I like Reader's Digest too =)

My favourite artists are THE CARPENTERS, THE CORRS & BEE GEES! I love oldies, nursery rhymes and a bit of rock & roll ^^

I'm scared of cold, very easy to get cold, especially my palms and legs. I wondered why~ There is no four seasons in Malaysia though, it is always "summer" over here @_ During rainy days, I'll use a towel around my neck to keep me warm (as I don't have a scarf). I like knitted clothes, I like overcoats, I like everything that can make me feel warm ^^

I drink hot chocolate, loved them ^^ I don't drink much coffee, I only like mocha & expresso, and maybe some latte~ I don't drink tea, other than chinese tea. I tried some flower tea before, but I feel like eat flower in my mouth ~.~ makes me feel weird... I liked alcohol~

I love BLACK~ It IS my favourite colour! I like gray, orange, yellow, red, navy... will compromise for some particular blue (maybe sea blue?), green (maybe lime green?), purple and something not too pinky =X I don't like colours that are too bright and too light. I prefer darker tones ^^

I dislike animals, as I hate the furs and the licking thing. I don't like they come near me, I'm just scared that I'll step on them @_ I admit that they are cute, especially puppies, but if they don't lick, it would be better for me =) I do love animals on magazines and TV, which they can't lick me =X

Maple Story (SEA version) is the only online game that I played, I'm a Priest^^ and my childhood hero are the TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES~

I'm having a minor cardiac problem since 6 years ago. I have SOB (Shortness of Breath). If I stayed too long in the crowds, I'll be fainted cos of too hot and hard to breathe =(

Recently, I'm having fever on photographing! Falling in love with VINTAGE IMAGES~!

I wish someone can make me a bag (morsbag, totebag or sling bag), that is big enough for my thick purse, 2 cellphone, a big bunch of key, notebook, pencil case & a 1 litre water tumbler. It would be the best if it is suitable for bring to work (I'm working in an audit firm) and daily casual activities, so that I won't need so many bags ~.~ We can trade for something =)

Greetings Ying!

Thanks so much for the resends you sent me for the Handmade Notecard swap. I really do appreciate it! I have received a few different swaps from you and even though it is slower coming from Malaysia to the States, it is always worth the wait because you send such cute things.

Thanks again and have a super day!

Claranova on May 17, 2008:

Hey!

I got your message, and no I have not received The Journal W/a Twist 2 package yet. If you have a shipping number or something maybe I can check on it. Otherwise, I'll continue to wait patiently. :)
