EXTRA edition to all my partners (updated Oct 13th, 2008)

I'm having difficulty in receiving mails lately (lost rampantly!!) o(╥﹏╥)o thus, to avoid "resend" occurs, I'd appreciate all my swap partners could: -

• registered your package with a tracking number or insured to against loss, especially big package, but only if affordable.
• not to decorate the envie/package too fancy & keep it as simple as possible. If you do, please only deco the wrapping inside the envie =)
• state the contents of package as simple as possible in the custom forms for the contents to simplify the declaration as well as avoid lost.

Sorry for this special request and any inconvenience caused.

Greetings from Malaysia!

Am a Malaysian Chinese from Sarawak - a place that covers by huge rain forest! I'm currently reside at Kuching - the word means "cat" in Malay, thus it carries a nickname "Catcity" due to the same pronunciation.

Cat lovers should have pay a visit to my city as there will be a lot of collections for you to bring home. On the other hand, you may pm me for private swap for cat items! :)

All sort of crafts I like. I am a bit clumsy, so at the moment I'm trying to learn more about it as I just found a lot of interested crafts at here.

I do cross stich, card making occasional, crochet(noob) and really want to learn knit, patchwork, felt making and etc.

I love animes, especially Studio Ghibli, and true story movies. I do not like horror movies.

I likes Japanese dramas and Hong Kong dramas.

I watch badminton match and swimming games occasionally.

I always sent my swap. I'm trying my best to please my partners according to their profile (hope it's not disappointment! ;)) and not too picky (at least I don't think so) and ♥APPRICIATE♥ everything you sent.

Due to my location, the postal service will be slightly slow to overseas (international shipping). So, swappers/partners, be patient waiting for your swap items, please!

In case you don't receive my swap more than a month, or have any problems, please contact me before rating and I'll arrange replacement, or work things out with you and PLEASE reply me at least a YES or NO if I follow up for the status of the swap I sent. Thank you.

Let's go green and save the environment...I'm all right if you send your package by recycling used/scrapped envie as I recycle mine sometimes. :)

Last but not least, I am open for private swap. You may request for cat items or handmade item that I swapped earlier in my flickr album.
