In Dec 2005, I stumbled upon a micropayment site called IstockPhoto which sells stock photos and illustrations. I was actually trying to find ways to earn some money with my designing passion. So, the site is great as it allows aspiring photographers/illustrators to submit their work. At first, I tried to dabbled in photography, was happy camera-triggering away, hoping to get myself approved as Istockphoto. I managed to be approved after submitting several photos. I had my first photo up for sell and a lot of my other photos was rejected because I only used point and shoot camera and couldn’t compete with other professional photographers. Frustrated, I thought I give Illustration a try. That time, I only have basics in illustrator tool specifically Macromedia Freehand. So I doodled my first illustration on a newspaper and traced them using Adobe Illustrators. After several submissions to Istockphoto and many hours of beizer curves later, I got accepted as illustrator.
Now, almost a year, I am a proud exclusive photographer/illustrator on Istockphoto with more 2000 downloads. Not bad for a person who has no professional training in graphics. So I am planning to expand my portfolios and hopefully become a Diamond-member.

I have always love beach vacation since I practically grew up by the beach. So you can imagine how excited I was when our company ‘ve decided to make Bali as our annual vacation destination.
One of the great perks working for my company is that we get to go to such holidays for free or partially subsidized. After some research, we managed to get rather cheap AirAsia Free & Easy deals to Bali. It was around RM800++ per person. Not bad at all as this deal includes 3 night accommodation in 5 star hotel Discovery Kartika Plaza and return air trip.
I can still remember how Niagara Falls is like from the movie Superman II. Niagara Falls, one of the World’s Natural Wonders and i finally got the chance to see the magnificent wonders.
Like any girl who simply loves bags, I love surfing the net to see what bags are hot in trend. I’ve stumbled upon this site called Bag Borrow or Steal. This site makes it possible for girls to carry that “must-have” handbag. The concept is really simple but ingenious. It is kind of like a book renting service, where you pay the membership fee, and everytime you borrow a bag, you pay some “borrowing” fee. You can borrow a bag for 1 week or as long as you like without any late fees. And if you just can’t bring yourself to return the bag you borrowed, you can steal it. (of course with “steal-it” price).
Now if only they let people outside of US borrow their bags..
Isn’t this the wackiest USB drive you have ever seen or what? Strangely, I kinda like it as I just love sushi. They would make such good office gifts or collectors’ items. Sadly, they don’t come cheap. The smallest and cheapest sushi is the 32 MB cucumber maki priced at $59 (without shipping). Anyway, watch out for more crazy USB drives by the folks at Dynamism
