A Poem to Remember ~

Always Remember That .........

Sometimes in life,
you find a special friend:
Someone who changes your life by
being part of it.

Someone who makes you laugh
until you can't stop;
Someone who makes you believe
that there is really good in this world.
This is forever friendship.

When you're down,
and the world seems dark and empty,
your forever friends lifts you up
in spirit and makes that dark and empty
world suddenly seem bright and full.

If you find such friend,
you feel happy and complete
you have a forever friend for life! ~  By Linda

My Hibiscus

6th April 2012 (Friday): My hibiscus flowers have bloomed and I'm happy to see the gorgeous colours. I began my hibiscus garden last year and they started to bloom last month. There are five types which are white, pink, red and pinkish red. I think I'll add some more to my collection. It's because the flower is so dramatic. It is a decorative flowering plant that can grow well here in Malaysia. Moreover, this flower is the Malaysian national flower. Even at my place of work, there are different types of them. I use hibiscus flowers to landscape the school's garden. There are few types that I still don't have at my garden. I like to plant this flower because it has many uses as in herbal teas, hair treatment and even as aids in my teaching of Visual Arts. This flower is also connected to 'delicate beauty' and sometimes a popular gift among the gardeners. Here are some of my hibiscus flowers .. :)

My Paintings

I like drawing & painting .. in fact these had been my hobbies since I was at school .. I even won some of the few competitions when I was at college, sometimes got 1st, 2nd or 3rd, but can't have my paintings back because they became the college's personal properties :( .. but never mind .. still continue drawing & painting .. When I took my degree I enrolled with Visual Arts subject & gained more skills on paintings & drawings .. I even learnt how to do the 'batik' paintings with my colleagues & produced some :) .. well here are some of what I have done ..
