The only thing that I have for reminiscence was the plastic coconut tree from my birthday cake six years ago. "Why are you keeping the plastic coconut tree? I am surprise that sister actually collect thing like that!" said my little sister. Yeah, of course I don't collect "things like this" if it has no meaning for me, especially with my current age.

I was about to have another memento this afternoon, but the time was not right. The artist who we were looking for went out before we reached his shop. It was my fault for eating so slow I suppose.

In the unfortunate situation, I had another option which was to go for another artist who was offering himself for the task. But I chose to say "no" with some stupid excuses - "His work is too artistic for the task, his shop is too hot and I can't stand staying in his shop for too long and etc". Actually the main reason was, once I decide on something I really like, I will not mind spending years waiting for it without considering any other options. Above and beyond, it is not easy for me to fall in love on something I feel worth to wait.

At least, the speed and smoothness of my working progress today was considered as a success. An undertaking which was claimed can only be done in few days but I manage to complete it in two hours. So, today is not considered as a bad day for me. I am so proud of myself and at the same time, I would like to thank the helpful guard for helping around when hands were needed. I know there will be more for me to learn in the coming commissions and I am ready for it!

I always believe that as long as I don't waste my time doing nothing, I am gaining something every second.
