Little trinkets from Bangkok
No, I didn’t visit Bangkok but my Sissy did. And these are what she bought back as gifts for me. 
Really adorable right? The pink dotted bunny is called Whimmy. She’s not a cry baby but I think it’s a nice name for her. A female? Yup, just because she’s pink! 
Maybe I’ll make her the big star in my next layout. Anyway, I hung it on my bag and it looks like it’s bouncing when I’m carrying my backpack around. Oh yes, Dayna brings a backpack to school, it’s huge and spacious. The next one is a clothes hanger with my favourite animal, the panda. It’s more like a miniature one for hanging papers and lastly the keyring with my name imprinted on it.
Marked
I saw a new novel series House of Night1 at Popular bookstore about Vampires. It was displayed under the International best sellers so I grabbed one and read through the synopsis. It looks like the kind of book I would enjoy reading hence I got the first book of the series, Marked (added it to my library as well). 
Does the cover reminds you of Twilight? No matter how I look at it, it screams “Twilight”. Chewy thought it was Twilight when he had a quick glance at the cover as well. Does all vampires novels look like this?

It went through lots of changes before finalising on this design. In this final version, he’s wearing an artist cap and holding onto a paintbrush. Originally, he’s wearing a blue wholly hat and holding onto his bamboo stick. I can’t find the PSD file which has the old design, I might have override it. 
So why the name Bim Bim? No particular reason though. I suddenly thought of it while I was studying for my exams and find it quite adorable and suitable for this little panda. I must confess that his house, also known as the “House of Panda” is slightly distorted. I draw it over from a photo of a Japanese tea house even though it look more like a traditional Chinese house. Well, technically speaking, pandas are from China. 
I still hadn’t figured out why some many people (specifically 12.2% of my overall visitors) are still using Internet Explorer 6. I’m only complaining because my layout looks screw up in IE 6 and I don’t plan to fix it. 
I tested mine on Google Chrome and thankfully it looks normal as well. We should be moving forward, there’s a new version so the old one should be presuming flawed. I understand that IE 7 is slow for many people. That’s why we should be using an “environmental” friendly browsers like Firefox and not the devil. Pollution is not good for the environment, ya?
