Been busy reorganizing and repainting my room lately. Consider done now, just need to add a little bit of decor to make it perfect. Quite happy how the colours turned out and the new furnitures fit right in. Nowadays I’m feeling happy everytime i enter my room.

So after the Karaoke session, me and Siewmei bought some cakes and went to Sri Petaling to meet her friends. It was a small but warm gathering for them since they’re friends since college days. Catching up with each others and talking about some women’s stuffs since one of their friend, Liz is pregnant with a baby girl. Congrats.

The place that we went at Sri Petaling, from outside it just looks like a normal 2 storeys house with a lot of cars parked both side of the road. But inside, it’s actually Oh-&-Ah, the shop. Why did we gathered there is because one of their friend, Teck Yew(I think that’s his name) is one of the owner of the shop.

They sell all sorts of nice, cute, old-skool, useful and pretty stuffs. From home decorations to clothes, personal accessories to toys. And a lot of their products are handmade also! This means they’re unique. I’ll leave their website to list down what they have to sell. Gonna share some(a lot) of the photos I took there.

Their logo. An… erm… animal i think. With a lot of hair.

1st floor showroom.

Most of the accessories they sell is for the girls. So girls, if you like accessories, you’ll have to check them out.

Funky giraffes.

Earrings and printed tees.

Big rings.

Old-skool tin firetruck necklace.

Besides those items that can be bought, there are a lot of the decorations there that are only for display purposes only. Too bad.

Colourful earrings.

A special hanger for you to hang your earrings?

Handmade badges. Pretty nice and cute. We bought a few from the collection that they have here. But some of us are eyeing on the suitcase itself. Hahaha.

Each of their pricetag, are hand-drawn and pretty much unique from one another.

Nice and cozy fitting room.

It’s the Mega Sale season!

A beautiful tree branch decorated with little cards of of wishes and wish list of customers and friends.

A cabinet top filled with hand-molded figurines.

Looking for something different to put your flowers in?

Boxes with expressions.

Closer look at the figurines.

Stones with drawings. Pretty Zen-ish.

Tin toyz… is this old-skool or what?…

Animal shaped necklaces.

Key chain made out of… a lot of stuffs.

Ride with Mr. Postman.

Chalk writing on the wall. Pretty cool. I’m gonna try it in my room sometimes.

Dried flowers that they’re selling.

Notebooks.

Figurine A (right): “Wei, I think there’s something on your head.”
Figuring B (left): “Screw you la. Where got.”

A peachful demonstration.

I’m not sure whether it is eating the plant? Or it is vomitting them out.

Plant now! Safe the Earth. Apparently there are see
ds in those small boxes, that will grow trees up to 25m high!

Nice piece of antique-looking fan. But I think it is for blowing only, not for sale.

Some of the badges we bought in close-up.

It’s time for people shots.

Gigi and Brian. And Siewmei in the middle.

Me and Royce. Don’t be mistaken that we’re very close friends, this is my first time meeting her. Hahaha. Very friendly and playful as you can see from the picture.

This shot looks like some magazine cover.

A very nice shot of Siewmei posing against the dried flowers. The colours are very nice.

Brian Wong trying to perm his short hair.

Brian with the dried flowers also.

Very cute bag that Siewmei is holding. This shot also looks like those street fashion photography.

Good friends: Teck Yew, Gigi, Royce, Siewmei, and Liz. (from left to right)

Little drummer tin toy robot: “Thank you for your visit. Please come again soon.”

Case 1:
Doing what you do, and trying to be the top of what you’re doing, but it doesn’t guarantee anything. With just enough money to survive your day to day life, with not much time for your friends and family, not even talking about raising one of your own. But hey, you’re good at what you do, and you like it. Successful?

Case 2:
Doing what you don’t really like, but you got the money to buy what you wanted, you got the time to be with the one you love. Raising a family and have good financial status to even send your kids to oversea. Successful?

I guess it all goes down to you and where you wanna go with your life. With the standard of living in Malaysia going up like nobody’s business, its really hard if you’re in Case 1. Of cos the dream of everyone will be doing what they like, and getting what they want. But how hard is that? Is time the factor in this case? You just have to persistantly persue what you like and in the end it’ll all pay off? When is the time to say “That’s it, I think I’m not going anywhere with this.”?

I think another consideration in this is, how much do you care about how other people look at you. I guess everyone sees a successful person as an individual who are able to buy big cars and live in big houses. That’s what I see also. A man able to drive a sports car, live in a big and nice house. Do you care about what he does for his living? Do you care about if he’s happy with his current job? The thing is he’s successful in life.

From there it kinda comes back to make you think that, is doing what you like really that important?

Do you consider yourself successful?

I’m just crapping here because today I’m having a shitty day…

Signing off,
Someone that’s not being appreciated by the company.
