Welcome, Dyanna Haslan!

Today at 13:28, there was a new addition to the family - DYANNA HASLAN - daughter to my brother and sis-in-law! Congratulations, you two! And well done, Rozi, it must have been tough work! But it was totally worth it because Dyanna is BEAUTIFUL!

Anyway, my parents and I went to visit them at the hospital this evening. The new grandparents totally doted on the little one. I wish I could cuddle her but am still a little sick so have to refrain for the time being. Ah well, I did manage to get a photo with Dyanna-chan...

So given my brother's interests in comics, you can guess where he and his wife got the name Dyanna from, right?! Hehe... I think it's a lovely name, though I did warn my bro that I might just call her "Shazam No. 2", haha. Aniki was none too pleased about my plan, so I'll just called her that when he's not around, hehe. Just kidding, Aniki! ;p Anyway, syukur alhamdulilah to the safe delivery of little Dyanna! May she have a wonderful future ahead!

2010: Year of the Tiger - Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Ooh, tomorrow's Chinese New Year! Angpow galore, hahaha! Anyway, Gong Xi Fa Cai to all those celebrating. Coincidentally, it's also St Valentine's Day, so much love to all, hehe! ;D

Oh yeah, lots of February birthdays - 03 Feb (Nynna), 02 Feb (Dad) and 08 Feb (Laupan); HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I'm currently on annual leave at the mo, so lots of plans - going to start yoga again from next Tuesday onwards (William, your studio is open then?), more drawing (I promise, Pip!) and catching up on work (unfortunately, hehe!).

Last night, I caught a movie called "Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief" with my niece, Pip! It was cool, I love mythological stuff, the effects were awesome, lots of familiar faces - I'd give it an 8.5! XD

Finally, a quick scene from the latest Skip Beat chapter (152) - can you guess who that guy is? Hehe, it's getting more and more interesting! >;) Can't wait for the next installment on 20 February 2010!

Ein Gutes Neues Jahr 2010!!!

Hey all! Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaappy New Year!!! A day later but it's all good! Lots of best wishes to everyone. Hope you like the quick CG sketch I did to celebrate the arrival of the new year!

Unfortunately, I can't write much at the moment. Taking a breather before going on to do more work. Yep, my weekend is unfortunately not work-free yet again... [sigh]

Oh yeah, before I say bye-bye, I'll leave you with a youtube video of one of my current favourite Japanese songs called "Love & Roll" by Supercell (I heard it from a short animated film called "Cencoroll"!). Enjoy! xxx

Happy Christmas 2009!

Just a quick message to wish everyone celebrating a very HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!! Hope you all had a brilliant day with lots and lots of pressies! Well, I didn't have lots, hehe - only one but its totally kawaii!!! A huge domou arigatou to the one who gave it to me, you know who you are! [big hug] I'll post a picture of the gift later! For now, here's an artwork I did this week to celebrate the occasion (Thanks for encouraging me, Pip!):


Oh yeah, Adeline celebrated her birthday on Christmas Eve, so ALLES GUTE ZUM GEBURTSTAG, ADS!!!

"Breathe is Life, Life is Yoga."

That's the tagline for OMPlace Studio, my favourite yoga studio!!! XD It's been too long since I did yoga - bad, bad Lin! Anyway, I decided that I've been doing too many long hours at work, leaving no room for me to pursue my other interests, yoga being one of them! :( So now, it's time to prioritise "me time"! So tonight's class was my official first day back at yoga, let's hope I can keep this up. I'm hoping that since I'll be on leave soon, it'll be easier for me to focus on "me time", hehe! Anyway, today's class was a bit tough for me, I haven't been doing any proper exercise for several months now, but I did the best I could, it was a good class. I can still do a headstand, a bit wobbly but at least, I managed! XD

Also, since I'm on the subject of yoga, let me just wish my yoga teacher, William and his lovely new wife, Jacky many CONGRATULATIONS on their wedding last Sunday! It was my first Chinese wedding, I enjoyed it tremendously! Thank you for inviting me!

Okay, time to say good night! Will try to update this blog more regularly, promise! ;)

A post a month?

Just as I was just starting to get back into the ol' blogging mood, WORK happened! It's been non-stop with assignments, meetings, events, etc. And at the end of October, I'll be "block-travelling" for a few weeks - working trip, annual leave holidays and again, working trip!

Anyway, fortunately, I managed to get a breather from the work scene, but only for a few hours. Will be working again once this post is published. So am I stressed? Yes, I am! But it's a good sort of stress... but ask me again in a week or so, haha! ;p

Oh, yeah, Fifah celebrated her birthday last Tuesday - OTANJOUBI OMEDETOU, PIP! Hope you had a brilliant time!

Right, have to get back to grindstone! I will definitely try my best to post more from now on! xxx

p.s. All Skip Beat! fans, this happened in chapter 145! Oh my god! Nooooo!

Selamat Tahun Baru 2009!

Firstly, I'd like to wish everyone a very:

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009

I didn't do much on New Year's Eve! Was meant to meet up with my cousin Yusri who just got back from Australia that very afternoon, but that was cancelled! Gomen ne, Yus-kun! :( Unfortunately, I came down with the flu, what a way to start the new year!

Anyway, a bit of reflection, 2008 was a pretty good year for me. I achieved quite a bit:
  • I started a new job.
  • I made new friends and got to know some of my relatives better.
  • I started doing yoga (and can now do a headstand - not perfectly yet, though!).
  • I managed to lose some weight (but need to lose more and get fit, hehe!).
  • I started drawing more and established a manga-drawing circle with Pip & Fel.
  • I finished my German language course.
  • I started saving for the future.
  • and so on...
As for last year's resolutions, I only achieved 60% of them, so I must thrive to achieve better in 2009. So without further ado, here are my resolutions for this new year:
  1. Improve my skills in Business Finance.
  2. Continue with my Japanese language lessons.
  3. Improve my Malay, German and French language skills.
  4. Achieve punctuality.
  5. Draw at least one manga.
  6. Lose weight and MAINTAIN the weight loss!
Hmmm, my 2009 resolutions aren't exactly major life-changing ones, but that's okay. I'm not putting any of those in the list, since they are ones I constantly try to achieve and improve on - they do not need a time limit, hehe.

Oh, yeah, I changed the look of my blog yet again - this time to mark the New Year! ;) I've never used a manga/anime image for my background before, so this is a nice change! I decided on the Ren-sama and Kyouko pairing for the first one! XD Can you tell that I love "Skip Beat!"? Haha! Anyway, hope everyone's enjoying the first day of the new year! Peace! ;)

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha!

Just a quick message to wish all Muslims "Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha"! XD I hope it has been a brilliant day for all. As for me, it's a day of rest, lazing about, eating and watching TV, haha! I did NOT forget my prayers, though! ;p Peace to all!

Occasion: Aniki's & Rozi's Engagement

Last Sunday, Aniki and Rozi got engaged. Unfortunately, I was not able to attend the ceremony due to work committments which I couldn't get out of! :( Fortunately, my dear cousin Pinah (a.k.a. Nomad) took some photos of the event at my house. I'm just waiting to see the photos from the actual ceremony held at Rozi's. Anyway, just wanted to wish the both of them many congratulations and best wishes!!!

[big hug] Hope you have lots of good times today! Btw, this is the only digital photo I have of you - "stole" it off your college website somewhere, haha! ;p I'll catch you on MSN soon! Things are finally settling down, so will hopefully have more time to spare!

Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to have a celebratory meal with her on her birthday due to her work and family commitments. Not to worry, we'll celebrate it soon! Hope you had a brill day, Liza dear! [hug]
