I promised my friend Amanda to make her a stamp, but unforunately after the sewing machine arrived, I was so busy to fix it. I felt like I am more like an electrictian than a crafter. I have left the stamp behind for a few days. I felt so guility and today I finally made it. This stamp looks not as complicated as the last one but actually harder to cave coz it has lots of circiles… but anyway, it makes me a better stamp maker!
so devastated
i don’ know when can this whole thing end as my old machine was broken last month, and now after spending all my savings, the new one broke as well!!! WHAT CAN I DO??? The needle kept on breaking. Today is the second time I use it. it sew perfectly well for small things, but if i try to sew a bag, the needle breaks! Sewing one and a half bags casued me 5 needles!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? WHY AM I SO BAD LUCK??? This week is the busiest week in my life, but why can’t it leave me ALONE??? so depressed….
The sewing machine arrived last night. It’s 2 times bigger and 20 times more functions thatn the old one. I am so confused with all the functions but I don’t care. What I want is just to sew with a straight line. It’s been 13 years after I tried to use a real professional machine…The last time I used the professional sewing machine was in the Home Economic Class (half year only) and I’ve got the lowest grade in the class….
13 years later, I am driving the sewing machine crazily like a bull….
Here’s my first attempt:
sigh…. I have bought a sewing machine from eBay last week but I am still waiting for it now… I hope it’s not lost of somthing, I really really need that machine now coz I cannot make anything without it. I am also rushing to submit the price list to Taiwan. They have been waiting for a week…. ah… damn…. I shouldn’t have bought that machine from eBay if I know it takes this long… I am really really in a hurry but there’s nothing I can do….damn….
I’ve only drew a cup set for them I hope it will be alright… I really don’t want to waste my time… i hate waiting… i hate.!!!
after 2 weeks fraustration
I am now found my path again
the good news is
the biggest zakka company in Taiwan has invite me to join their company
soon my stuffs will be sold all over Taiwan
hopefully some place in Asia too
it’s a really big step
although i am still far away from the term “succes” (i don’t even have a definition of it)
i am so damn happy and excited
it’s bloody unreal…
so want to cry….
It’s benn a month! I have been looking for jobs. There’re are lots of jobs out there but I don’t like most of them, sales, accountant, bank, bloker, account receivable, etc, I don’t like them and I don’t want to waste my time on something I really don’t like. Actually what I want is quite simple, just recepctionist, uni, admin, or anything involved with creative stuffs. But it seems that really hard for me to get those jobs. Everyday I will receive one or two emails which tell me “we have candidates had qualifications, which more specifically met our clients brief”. Honestly, I really want to write back to these agents and tell them this kind of replies suck!! I don’t want to know there’re heaps of people have a better qualification than me! I have a master degree for god sake… what the hell do they want from me? Mind you, I just applied for graduate positions…. what on earth do they expect from fresh graduate?
In the mean time, I am reading lots of books, doing my business also writing a book seriously. I don’t know if this is God’s messages or what, but the books I have read these days, they all have a common message – believe yourself and your dream will come true. Both writers (my fav Japanese writers) said
“not everyone’s dream will come true coz not everyone can be Paris Hilton or Brad Pitt. Only a few people can really achieve what they want, but still, a few people did! So it’s not something definately impossible. If you have a dream, you have to think about how you’re gonna achieve it, in what way, then you follow your plan and go for it. But how many times we need to try until we know we can’t do it? We have to think about it. Only if you’re passion but don’t think, it’s not gonna work out. Some career only depends on passion, some career depends on both. Therefore, when you feel like you can’t do it, you have to think then adjust, adjust your plan and your goal, otherwise you”’ be wasiting your life on something you can never get.”
I really think it’s a message from God…
I am doing my craft business now. I am also writing my book. Things arn’t so good sometimes, but I have my good days as well. I think God is showing me the way. Or maybe I should say, I only have my art talents to rely on now…. no one wants me, seems like the whole world don’t want me to work for them… so i can only work for myself…. I hope it’s a good thing…
suki
I have applied for a job on net few weeks before and they just get back to me last week:
“…. unforunately we are not able to process your application due to large amount of high qualification applicants….”
damn….
this is NOT the first time I received this kind of rejection but don’t know what the hell is wrong with this person, he/she continously send me the same email for the whole week, and everyday, he/she sent it at 9am sharp!! For f**k sake, I know I am not the “high qualified applicants”… You dont have to remind me every single day!!! How dare!!! I think it’s some kind of joke or what…
congulate me please
I have reached 103 people that “hearted” my store!! YAY!!!!!!
