My Very First.. Baby

It has been 3 sessions but I hv learnt nothing about sewing. Im so dying to sew. I hv the sewing machine (which I bought with my own money - from Miu ), but I cant sew! How lame is that.
Hopefully, this week, I'll get my sewing lesson.

Anyway, yesterday I tried to make something out of a thrifted sheet using Betz White's Tutorial. The tutorial is actually to make a shoe bag. But i am not a very neat n tidy person. I dont think I need a shoe bag. But i surely need a lil bag for my lil thingy.

Here is the result.


Im pretty happy with the result. Not too bad, for a beginner like me. I had never
had any experience using sewing machine before, so im happy with how it turned out. To make it cuter, I also sew a ribbon and attached it using a pin.

Ibu Tukang Parkir

Near my office, there is one old woman i always pay attention to. My honey called her "ibu tukang parkir". Why? because we payed her every month to make sure we got a place to park our car.

This old woman is very fierce to everyone, but every time me n honey pass her by, she always gives us a big smile. I love her smile cause it looks so sincere, and since she got no tooth left, it's also kinda funny.

Usually, this old woman wears sarong n traditional top, but yesterday was different. She wore a beanie, trousars, and a shirt. Wow! I said to myself. She looked so different. I couldnt help but took her pict. She later told us that she just came back from exercising. My heart rouse when I heard that. Sounds weird, but i adore her. Living so simple yet looks so happy.




Pink Oil

I went to Auto 2000 with honey before office yesterday.
The car already reached 15000 km n we have to change the oil.
I hv never went to change my car oil before that i thought, i was about to wait in a room with fan n dim light.
haha.. Then i was wrong.
It was a comfortable room with a tv, sofa, and a coffe machine.

There are also plenty of Advance massage machine.
But unluckily, all switched off.



Haha..
It's so much fun going to ordinary places Ive never been before.
