Sony - NEX-F3

Hubby bought another small version of DSLR for me, I tried to use some of the features.. My fondant dough miniature craft are my snapping model..

My newest toy.

My dear husband bought me a nice camera, Nikon D5100.So, I was anxious to play and shoot pictures with my collections.
Most of the time, I have no clue on all the camera language, like what is AF, P.. and when or what setting for ISO, Aperture, , all I want is to shoot close up picture like picture in magazine or in other bloggers that post pretty pictures on their web page.
I have lots to learn, need to start from the basic..All these picture being touch up in my PSD, I just want to looks like a pro pictures, or picture that bright my day...
Enjoy!Kitty n Fishy

My latest hot hobby

This is a hobby I am quite into it..

I took a short class in Michael Craft & Art last weekend on how to decorate Cake pops.
We practice on Rice Krispy first, then start to decorate it, it looks so nice and simple on the magazine or some blogger post, and it's not easy at all, trying to decorate with icing, sugar melt is quite a challenge..

I did some, but I am not ready to post those picture, but tonight, I practice deco on Marshmallow. and beside, it's Pot Luck tomorrow, I will let my colleague's to be the first to try it!
Poor team-mate... I am obsess in Cake pops but not good at decorating, so I draw....

The short summary of what happenings for pass few months...

It has been a while logging here..
There's so much happening, father is doing ok, not much better in health, but he is always a happy man to be with, my father never troble us, but it's us to feel sorry for him and wanting to do more for him to return his cares to us.

Eldest Sister, brothers and their wife were here to visit father, we were all busy to spent time as a family. These are precious time to have family together, I was happy to see them here but were so sad to see them leave...

Ar Boy is in Grade 4 now, met his teacher last week, the feedback was positive, I hope he will keep it up and prepare for middle school next year. Still can't discover his talents yet, I wish there is some, so I can help him to starts his future..
I was helping him on his school project, he needs to draw a potrait of himself, his art skill is terrible, only draw stick man, not artistic at all, so I got him practise to draw lines and circle for hour, then he started to learn how to draw..
I convince him to take art lesson, he resists, I said I will teach him, and he ran away... for sure he ain't got my genes in art...

Here's the digital photo art I did last weekend, it has been a while I touch my Wacom tablet and my photoshop.. these pictures are from last April, he is out-grow a little taller...

These post specially to my family, friends - and to Julie Yu. Nice chatting with her...

"Wow,,,,, job well done, Son" in mother or his Aunt's eyes, this is a Master piece.
Boy Boy is really closed to my sister's E. She got a lot of patient with him, and he got a lot of love to her. Kids are simple minded, when they can feel the genuine love, they will returns tons of love..
E can spend whole day playing with Boy Boy, and she will listen to him whatever he likes her to do, how to play, what to play.. Just like this picture here, he wants his Aunt's to sit on the chair for him to draw a portrait..
She spoil him. Honestly, Most parent like their kids to beloved by anyone..especially family members. E not just spoiling him, she very kind to my family, I really appreciate her loves to us.

(mind you, I too take a lots of granted on my sisters... like get them take me out dinner or get me some goodies..all because they are my older sisters, they got no choice! Wahahaha ( maybe they do?) The real reasons is I always being a nice, well behave and lovable sister lor :P .
Not to forget to mentioned my oldest sister in Malaysia, a sister's who have a good heart and with lots of unconditional love to our family, I really appreciate and thankful to this family. 我..真的不枉此生！ )This is baby boaboa, Et's son.. thank Et,, you are a very kind person!

To my Sisters

Last Weekend..

Quite a weekend, No T.V and No Computer for the day...Me and son were always occupied both computer lately, he always next on the line... so... hubby arranged the whole weekend with shopping, library and visiting, take a break from the cyber world in our home. All of us had a good time.

To My sisters MayPing & Elaine
Today, I took some picture of myself, touch it up to post for today cover story..

I am a very lucky girl's in my family, All my brothers and sisters very pamper me especially my oldest and second oldest sister.（我的大姐和二姐）both of my sisters and my husband encourage me to find sometime I enjoy working, or go back to school to upgrade when I was unemployed. (When I migrated to Canada with family in early 90's, I immediately got hired by Nortel Networks and work for 13 years. I met my hushand there, got married then the company shut down when I was on maternity leaves.)

Back in KL, My family can't affort to support me for any Colleage after Secondary school, they know I always wanted to be an artist, but I have a long way and extra work to fullfilled my goal. 我想我姐姐们都認为我有少少天份、可是需要做更多後天功夫‧老實說我天份不多‧我是那種要出百多倍努力才有那一點result的人‧所以像Twinsmom 這種有天聰的人、對我這種人來說一定在她背後眼超超‧過佢两招！（當然現在EQ高咗、平淡睇化了！為有加勤力啦！說笑啦！懂欣賞他人好處係我的長處來嘅‧IQ雖少但係一向都EQ高嘅！)

I was working in Preston Publishing as a Layout artist for 2 years (located in SS2 Damansara, I heard this place closed now) before I migrated to Canada with my family..With it, both of my sisters and my hubby encourage me to take a some basic computer graphic courses and go back to this field. Both of my sisters sponsor all my courses fees... how good is that. They are still like a parent to me, nowaday they are financial capable , they are helping me reach my dream.

Last year, hubby sign me up, I'm still uncertain about it. I was very nearvous in my first class. Thanks god, I did ok and gain my confidence through it. My instructor is quite a fun person and knowledgeable guy, he help me a lot.
I was worried in the beggining because I've stop schooling since Form 5. After secondary school, I took some general part time courses with other friends in some institute (I think it was an accounting course, short courses to get a job faster, those day just we just follow the clowd).
Before I finished the course, I end up working in Preston Publishing as a Layout artist. ( it was my second sister's who told me there is job opening, she knows this is the kind of job I would like to do. Thanks to her) I know I haven't got the skills or good enough, but I give it a shot, during the interview, Jennifer the supervisor tested my drawing skill, not good compare with others whose just graduated from arts School. Somehow, she hired me, she did said she likes my personality and want to give me a chance. I got lucky ! I learn so much and met many talented people in this place. Now, there is only one person I still keep in touch, Julia Yu, still a designer n a good friend in KL.

Back to last year, after I finished couple of part time Adobe Level 1 courses (computer sofware for graphic design) Somehow somewhat, I found a part time job in a local Newspaper company, which I can practice whatever I learn and apply to my current job, the courses I took is enought for this small office job. Althought there are no more challenges after a year working here, this job give me flexibility plus the hours of working fit my family need. ( This place is a place where they leave me alone type, not too many people working here, not so much politic! Maybe because after being a mom, I am in next level of life, I just don't get involve, do my work, be kind and leave the job completely when I go home) 有得做自己喜歡嘅工作又可以有有彈性的時間、暫時我已滿足‧沒有大志?人各有志、何必咁幸苦、我的家是最重要‧

However, Both of my sisters would like to see me finished the whole courses (only took 5 courses, and there are Level 2 to finished and Web designs courses, my weak program!) tocontinue persuade my dream..Get the Cert and work for better place where I can expand my skills_high frying??
But sis,,, at this moment I am just one lazy bump lah.. Pehapes later..When my son is a little older.
I am here to Say BIG THANK YOU to both of my lovely sisters and my husband who supported me all the way. Their courage always mean a lot to me...

These are my Assigments (not showing off, just show and tell..... )

Adobe Illustrator Level 1 (I don' t use Illustrator for such a long time and I don't think I will remember how to draw with this program now, I use corel Draw at work and got use to it, but Illustrator is much better program. Boy, my sisters will sure want the money back!
Adobe Photoshop Level 1
