Ningyogami

Introducing you guys with NINGYOGAMI, which is a kind of Japanese Paper Dolls.

My paper dolls!
The doll with black colour kimono is the failed product. It seemed flawless from this picture but I can tell you that I've ruined her face when I drew the mouth. Sorry.

When I studied secondary school, I was a member of the Japanese society. I remembered that one of the activities was doing this kind of paper crafts. However, I forgot the steps of making this paper doll, so I googled and found this useful blog which teach people to make Ningyogami.

If you google the Ningyogami image, you can found a lot of the dolls without any facial organs such as eyes, nose and mouth. I found it's kind of scary (because ghost movies are always like that) so I decided to add eyes and smiling mouth for the dolls. To make them looked friendly. :D

Also, if you think the face is too pale, you can actually colour the face with colour pencils too, skin colour according to your preferences.

Here is my final product!

Dolls with make-up.
See! Make-up really made a huge difference even though they are paper dolls.

Adidas King of the Road

Hey! I'm blogging again!
Yesterday, I took part in the Adidas King of the Road running marathon...
...
...
as the runner volunteer!
Volunteer's Tag
Job scope: walks around the event area and gives directions to the runners.

Here's a small advice for those who are interested to join as the volunteers for every running event, you must have enough sleep before you work because the working time normally starts at midnight. As for my case, the event started at 2 A.M. (Not the Korean singer group, hahahaha.... ok lame joke :/ ) yesterday. This is the only downside of the job.

Fun parts are coming.

You're getting yourself a super good-looking, good-quality crew T-shirt! *Happy*
Original Adidas T-shirt, for free!
You can see the emptiness of  a popular shopping complex where the shops are still closed and no one there.

Also, you can get to know new friends as well! 
Two Nicoles. Yes, she's called Nicole too!
So cute!
Sweet girl Stephanie
Knew her since previous marathon event!
With Esther (old friend) too! :D
Breakfast was provided for free too! Have you ever eaten breakfast at 4 o'clock in the morning?


When u see a cute mascot walking around, you can go in front and request for a photo session. They are friendly.
We have no idea there's a stranger behind.
The place was overflowing with runners.

Starting point: when the sun was still sleeping.

Starting point: when the sun had awaken.
Standby at the finish point.

Waiting for the first runner to reach the ending point.
While waiting.
Top three!

Standing at the ending point wasn't a fun job. My legs were so tired but I still needed to wait for all the runners to finish their run. There're more than thousands of people joining this marathon!!!! OMG.

Luckily I have a kind officer who assigned another two volunteers to swop the job with me and Esther. Their job was resting before that, meaning that our turn to rest!

So, we're getting wild and took lots of photos after this!

and then...


The end of the post!

Three things were found

Today I'm not going to talk about my assignments, or else you'll get bored again. >:D

I was searching for some old remaining text pads in the bookshelf just now. Accidentally I found these three set of old papers together with the text pad that caught my attention and then I decided to feature them here.

Since they already existed long time ago in my house but always being ignored so I purposely edited them with a sepia layer to show that they are OLD.


Can you believe that I wrote these two sets of latihan by myself? In fact, yes. I did this because I was assigned by my mom to become my little brother's tutor aka tuition teacher when I was studying primary school standard 5 or 6 (couldn't remember it). 

That time I was so excited about my new "job" so I prepared the exercises from a reference book and hope that I can train my brother to score high marks for his Malay subject but at the end didn't because I quarreled with him and refused to teach him anymore. 

Undeniably the level of difficulty of the exercises were considered too high for a standard 2 student, you know that I always put a high expectation on my little brother but he always disappointed me. :(


This was really funny. My Chinese handwriting was so kiddy during that time. It was a song lyrics from a Cantonese drama, Survivor Law. I remembered that time I was so into the story, theme song as well as the main actor, Lam Fung. I think I started to admire him since this drama was shown on TV when I was 13 or 14 years old if I'm not mistaken.  LOL


The one above is my Biology notes when I was Form 4 or 5 (memory lost again). I missed my "good student" handwriting, so neat omg! You will not want to read my handwriting nowadays, it's no longer readable. I can still remember I used to press the pencil head hardly onto the paper surface when I was writing, especially copying notes and writing essays. After that I liked to touch on the back page of the paper and I can feel there's a ragged texture on the surface. The feeling was so fun and exciting!

-THE END-
