My tiny work station

I got back my tiny tiny work station. A working desk is so important and this is my little heaven for handicraft or work...

I m keeping things uncluttered at the moment. But I may add more decorative stuff in the near future. I will also need a light as this is quite dark in the morning and evening.

Our study room / nursery room is

halfway finished. So I can just show one side of room. Regarding the baby side, it's still a mess filled with boxes....

This big cabinet with two hidden work stations was my idea. I really love uncluttered life. So if the desks are messy, we can just close the doors. When I had this idea, I got lots of reference from Pinterest for the furniture company. And I am glad that the idea is feasible.

FYI. The leather chair on the left was wrapped and sewed by Ah Lun. Quite a masterpiece.

Ok. I can only show my cabinet here because Ah Lun's side is a bit messy in my standard. :) we have got the tailored space for our printer. Love it.

Living in an organized life is a great feeling.

2014 Birthday Celebration #3 - July 26

Meeting up with BFF in Soho East on my birthday so that everyone can pick up the pottery works from the shop. Killing two birds in one stone.

As the restaurant is not letting us to stay long, so I suggested a punishment scheme, and it turned out so much fun.

I was the first one to arrive, followed by Ball Ball and Anton. We are the most punctual ones. Joyce Ip and Joyce Wong managed to arrive before the 1:05pm deadline. Meanwhile, Ah Yea, Donna, Cat and Flora in one cab got traffic jam on their way. And Connie got onto the wrong train, so funny.

1st batch!

2nd batch!

The happy late comers! $500 per taxi.

Finally arriving!!

The lunch gathering was so happy because Joyce Wong bring along 自拍神棍 and the cafe was filled with laughters!

Non-stop photo-taking!

After the gathering, we went back to the shop to collect the pottery works.

This was such a happy day and we also fixed our next overnight gathering in Hong Kong.

2014 Birthday Celebration #2 - July 25

Fanny said the drawing behind us looks like ultrasound of my baby!! Hahahha

Cake from Cova. We admitted it is not that good.

Make a wish!

Blow it off!

How can we miss out a pose?

Thank you for all the laughters.

It's confirmed that Eleana does not have any weaknesses. She is such a perfect friend.

2014 Birthday Celebration #1 - July 24

My colleagues suddenly said they could not join the lunch, and I counter proposed cancellation.

They said I am playing them in the end.

Had a great time with the C9s at the newly opened Greyhound Cafe.

Online Shopping - Hoppetta

可能是受爸爸的影響，我都是個喜歡買些有質量的東西，然後用一段很長的時間。他常常說：好東西就是貴，平野無好野。

遇上要買bb用品，可說是一大挑戰。1.在香港這個蚊型市場，選擇不多！2.設計太彩色而無格調，放在家就成為了eye sore ！3.bb女不一定要穿粉紅色吧！

由於要考慮長遠一點，如果將來有個仔（仲生到的話），我想大部份的物品都可以重用。本著這個目標，我所買的東西都是neutral colour and sex。這就是一個不太feminine的媽媽會購物的東西。

源於爬了一些台灣blogger的文章，知道了這個hoppetta品牌。他們的6層紗巾睡袋最有名。一看website就不可收拾了，買了很多設計漂亮但又functional的用品。

拆禮物！從台灣的店運過來的。

一看都是黑白灰，是媽媽愛的顏色。

從上至下，左至右：

老鼠cotton mat, crown pillow, 口水巾on baby carrier, breast feeding cover, 奸狗芥蘭，外出收納袋及sleeping bag.

這個就是人氣產品，見tag。好像說不太熱又保暖之類。我沒有選擇最受歡迎的蘑菇設計，原因都是太彩色（其實都比較柔和了），最後我選擇了米色的小綿羊設計。

又是老鼠，正呀！

手工漂亮到不行！看到小波老鼠鼻，米字眼及四角的波希米亞tassel 嗎？背面的pattern 都好美的！好開心啊！

Prenatal Class 2 - July 24

It's an intensive 2-hour class. Lots of practices!

Though I am planning to breast feed my baby, there are times I need to know how to make formula milk. All the steps like sterilizing the bottles were taught last night. The second part was about changing nappies.

It's an interesting class anyway.

Look forward to attending the next class, hope they will share more about breast feeding...
