Handicraft FB page - Lady Vampire's House of Knots

I love handicraft works. Love arts even though I'm not good in art but I quite confident to tell that I'm not bad in craft works. Recently I had created a page on FB to promote and might be selling my handmade products. 

Besides, I can have a platform to share my works and maybe get some others ideas and comments to improve my work. 

Hope that who is reading this can go and LIKE my page at www.facebook.com/houseofknots2u or look for Lady Vampire's House of Knots. 

Good day! 

November'15 Tokyo - Kyoto - Hakone Dream Trip #2 : Day 1

Day 1 - 5/11/2015

Narita Airport - Shinjuku

Landed in Narita Airport at 1400. After get out from the arrival gate, look for keisei skyliner ticketing counter. We bought the Keisei Skyliner round trip + Tokyo subway 2 days pass (¥ 5100) as we know we will be at around Tokyo for 2 days before going to Kyoto.

Keisei Skyliner takes you from airport to Nippori and Ueno station then transfer by metro or JR to major stations around Tokyo.

There is another type of train takes you from Narita Airport to major stations in Tokyo without a need to transfer. But, after the cost comparison, I decided to take on Keisei Skyliner.

May check online for their latest information and latest promotion. Currently they provide tourists for ticket online purchasing which include the packages of skyliner + subway.

They do provide wifi within the train. But you must ask from the officer at the ticketing counter. They will pass you a card with the username and password written on it then you may access it all the way to your destination. 

Once take off from Keisei Skyliner at Ueno station, then buy a ticket to Shinjuku as our accommodation is there (JR Ueno to Shinjuku ¥200).

Checked in to an accommodation which can occupied the 5 of us which booked from Airbnb.com.  Junko's Shinjuku Apartment The owner who named Junko is a kind and friendly person who took us for a dinner at Menya Musashi Honten; means the headquarter (google map) which is highly recommended by local people.

They served great food ie. Super juicy pork belly ramen. Only you would know until you try. They are hardly to be described with words but only feeling.

Well, dinner is done and head back to apartment to rest for another exciting day!

Do as much as possible the research before heading to Japan is essential so that you won't get lost in their complicated stations that with more than 10 exits within one station. Trust me! I had been lost once! lolxxx...

Much more details will be revealed in several blogs later. 

Decision Making

Yes~ It's Monday. Monday Monday blue. Hope my blue will not stay up too long. 

Well, I had tendered my resignation on 29th February 2016 and yet my boss doesn't wants to accept my resignation but allowed me to have 2 months long break. To take or not to take?

Frankly speaking, I don't think i want to work in the same company again after 6 years. And continue carry on for another 6 years? I want to try on new environment, new company, new place and new thing. For sure, in order to get used to these new life, I have to get through several challenges and be well prepared that maybe the next company will not be better than the current. 

Do I well prepare? Hmm... tough one. Might be yes, might be no. 

Just anyhow I feel I got no more passion at work right now. No motivation, no encouragement, no appreciation. I don't want to spend my rest of my working life just like this. I can see that my dreams, my ambition will leave me far far away if I'm staying right here. 

I want to breakthrough the current condition. Try to live up my life. Face to the new challenges. I don't fear of change, I fear of NO CHANGE. If I lose, I can try and try again. But if I don't make a change, there's no chance for me to try and everything will just be static. 

Always hope for a better tomorrow. 

Systematic Lupus Erymatheus(SLE) on me...for now

I hadn't been knowing the disease of Systematic Lupus Erymatheus(SLE) until myself got strike by it. It's been 4 years after I was diagnosed with such disease from July of 2011. All the way long, I'm glad to have my family, friends and colleagues keep on supporting and lend me a hand whenever I need them.

Of course, in between these 4 years, there are many changes had appeared on me. I had changed in my dietary, lifestyles and the attitude towards life. I spend most of my time with my family and friends. I appreciate every moments I had with them. Appreciating every important details of my life even in their life.

Now, for sure, stress is not allowed as advised by the doctors. However, as a working adult, that's a tough task been given to me as a project coordinator. Anyhow, I just work my best to cater with all the difficulties and be work-life balance.

I know that there might be many out there like me now, or even worsen. What i would share here is to be optimistic. Don't think all about the negativity of this disease. Follow the doctors advises and prescriptions. Adopt with a healthy lifestyles like monitoring your dietary and do exercises. I know it's not easy to simply start with. Step by step and slowly you can adapt with that.

There are so many beautiful things, people in the world. There are many that we never been explore or encounter. Live longer to see more!

Keep it up for all and myself! This is my life which I can control! (>‿◠)✌
