《牛年吉祥感谢篇》慈善祝福能量手写春联By Hitomi Lee

 

这年的新年很不一样，开启了人生第一个微不足道的“壮举”，就是第一次以我的小小力量做些事情回馈给社会。

之前对于做善事都是捐款而已，这一次是心血来潮然后顺手推舟通过小小买卖来筹募。

很感恩一名老朋友，不是很熟没什么联络都是在面书偶尔互相点个赞那种，她看到我在面书的post觉得很有意义，由于她是保险界的就一口气跟我订了20个，后来还要加码5个送给支持她的忠实顾客。

除了她也有一些朋友及亲戚非常的支持，原本按照自己的能力是打算卖20-30副而已，到最后一直有人加码所以卖了大约38副的对联。

那天听到Sylvia 的分享（1:47:05）说到她的生意也是差不多跟我一样的情形，她的直播人数不多，顾客数量也不多，可是可是，生意额却是爆单的！她提到这是因为老天不要我们处理得太忙太累，我才恍然大悟对啊，真的是天地的精心安排无误，如果顾客太多，然后每个都只买一两副，到时我先生就需要忙着帮我送货，我也要一直跟进，安排这个安排那个，跟客户沟通也是非常吃时间，整个情形非常不容易也不敢想象啊。

春联的包装，剪了个“春“字小小设计，也附上Tack-It方便大家黏贴。

大家挂了对联纷纷给我送上照片，看到这些照片时当然是最开心的时刻，谢谢大家用心和珍惜对待我的对联宝宝们，想起那两三个星期的每个晚上100%全神贯注一字一字的写，一边写还一边听正能量歌曲，一边祝福，哈哈哈！基于品质管理，一晚也最多写三副对联，周末则写五副，要知道每一副都是我的心血来的哦。

除了写慈善对联，也第一次参加了线上挥春比赛，最后一次参加挥春比赛是大学时期咯。还记得那时自己没有得奖，身为主办当局华文协会的朋友还拿我的作品去和评判评理为什么写到这样美没得奖？呵呵我自己知道自己的功夫到哪里啦，不过也感谢她的欣赏，还有转告我需要改进的地方。我大概也知道的，就是不够工整，有些大有些小，有的该勾的我去撇，该撇的我去勾，不够正规。

这张就是我对联宝宝的模特儿们啦。加了春联当背景照片特别漂亮，大家觉得吗？

最后，再次感恩这一年有机会透过不大入流的挥春，透过这样的踏出第一步和做中学习，付出的感觉是收获满满的。接下来的日子，要继续努力更上一层楼，可以贡献更多力量回馈社会。

Paint It Yourself

有多久你的手没拿过毛笔了？ 不论在中小学时期你的绘画能力有多强，多有天份，可是毕业后还会有多少人会继续画画呢？还记得那时候的我们，画画只是为了分数，根本不是为了兴趣，每一次都是为了教功课而画，为了考试而画。

不懂为什么，我对画画有一份情意结，也许是因为幼稚园时妈妈送我去画廊学画画，那时候老师们常常称赞我乖。其实我只是比其他小朋友害羞而已，他们每次都不专心，互相玩闹，只有我不会跟他们打交道，就静静地在那边画画，所以老师从不需监督我有没有画完图画，我总是很努力的画，用心的涂。可是过后升上小学后，不晓得为什么我就没有再去画画班了。

小学时期，画画不是我的料，每次比赛都没我的份，每次画图画也是随便交差而已。到了中学，因为怕美术成绩不好影响总成绩，就趁学校假期时去了康艺绘画中心上速成班。结果上了短短的十个课程后，我的绘画等级就从B和C的边缘拉到了A及Ｂ的边缘。我还在中心的室外画画比赛中得到了人生中唯一和画画有关的奖呢～
所以讲到画画，这个速成班对我的影响最大，因为从此以后我不再对画画自卑了。

这次要谢谢yan yan帮我选了这幅油图，麻烦她帮我去夜市购买这个数字油画。虽然是偷吃步，而且我只是画了二三十巴仙，可是因为太久没画画了，看到妹妹完成后，我还是有着无限的满足感。呵呵～

这个数字油画，唯一不好的地方是颜料的品质不好，很容易变干，幸亏妹妹机灵，想到用针车油加进颜料来增加润滑度，我们才能完成这幅图。这幅图大概用了两个星期左右完成，从去年年尾到上个星期，中间停了两个月半。

912 好朋友的生日

Today is yan yan’s birthday. She is the friend I knew since Form One. In my memory, I never has any ‘benchmark’ birthday celebration with her i.e. cutting cake or preparing any special surprise. She is such a considerable & powerful ‘little’ gal who can always generate positive power & cheer us up! Indirectly, she is influential & possesses good leadership though she is always seems to be considerate and ‘cincai’ minded when making decision. Such a lovely character she has and I believe this is the reason crafting her as a shining star in a group! Happy Birthday to you, my good friend!

(P/s: Thanks fen fen for suggesting this place)

The venue is at 75 Celcius Restaurant and Bar. If u were to ask me to write a detail review on this restaurant, Sorry, I couldn’t make it as I don’t FEEL to make so..hehe. Oh ya, the waiter here is weird, taking order without making a note, he is so confidence about his memory! Probably this is because their variety of foods is limited hence people tend to become careless. So u think he can remember all the appetizer, main course, snacks & drinks accurately? Sure the answer will be 聪明反被聪明误！He confused about the drinks we ordered. Anyway, it’s kind of him to give us a 5% discount on the bill as a complimentary for our birthday girl. Hope he will learn a lesson next time, JOT IT DOWN, don’t trust ur MEMORY!

Alright, just a quick glance on the food.

Appetiser - Mushroom Brushetta (all of us love this dishes very much, the sauce is superb)

The soup we ordered: Mushroom soup & Tomato Soup. The mushroom soup is tasty with chunky ingredients & the tomato soup is acceptable as well.

The dishes we ordered:-

Lamb Navarin – Shell pasta served with tender lamb Navarin (the lamb taste like 'bak chang')

Baked Cheesy Seafood – Shell pasta serve with tomato sauce and seafood (the cheese is rich)

Lemon Butter Fish - Served with french fries, mix lettuce & lemon cream sauce (the fish is small and the fries is not crunchy, the only lies in its the lettuce & sauce)

Teriyaki Chicken - Grilled Chicken serve with teriyaki sauce. (Average)
Well, I have read a post regarding this restaurant recently. The invited review emphasized that he/she cant find any restaurant which is so generous in their food serving. Yet, we have some contradictory opinion. For instance, you might think that RM10.90 for a fish & chip is reasonable in this area, while u can enjoy the sea breeze & the nice view at the same time munching the pieces of fish for SIX times. Hehe..So, if u think you prefer to pay RM15-RM20 to enjoy a plateful of fish & chips for filling the stomach in an air-conditional & comfortable room, this restaurant will be definitely not the place u are looking for.

Nevertheless, we do enjoy it overall since we went there in a gang and we can taste different dishes with affordable price. Wow, initially I don’t feel to talk much about this restaurant. But it appears like 75 Celsius has successfully unfastened my screw of mind to keep writing on them. Shxt! Take a move now.

Let’s go to Louis Café. This is really a generous one I can undertake based on our past experiences. Yeah, every time we will definitely come here for second round. The boss is really big-hearted, she borrowed her laptop to us so that we can have tele-conference with princess ayumi. Finally she unveiled to me that she is going back Penang during my wed. Though I was hardly believe it when she first told me, but I can feel my heart was indeed trembling & shaky at that time, maybe this is as what yan yan felt when she received our special surprise. Hehe! Thanks Ayumi, thanks to tell me this good news & sorry I am so calm like a wood when heard it coz it’s really unbelievable & surprise. Hope you also can understand that I really couldn’t express my touch feeling more than words! Hehe…It’s such a glad news to all of us and of course your family members too! Hope u can enjoy your days in Penang soon!

The big SURPRISE for the birthday girl:- The photo album recorded all of our past memories in past 15 months.....Hope the sweet memory will continue with no ends..

Well, I think I shall stop here. Thanks everyone drop by the page and read my lengthy post.

Thanks all of my friends who has been together with me no matter rain or shine, Aishiteru!
