HAPPY 3rd ANNIVERSARY

My last post of 2011 endup exactly like last year!? Its not my intention or maybe because of busyness and laziness keep dragging me. Hehe.. Anyway coming late is better than didn't show up! So took me a few nights/hours to complete the whole thing...

Mainly because of this; stick it with a photo of me in 3 years old. Took in my sister 1st birthday party. Yeah, Im quite a fatty that time. And I wonder where the pose come from, or it just a second of naughtiness? Hahah.. Good enough for our 3rd Anniversary!

As reminder, we actually celebrate our anniversary on October. So I hope our 4th Anniversary post won't come up at the last day of 2012! LOL~ Happy 3rd Anniversary to 5marts and Happy New Year to you!

Merry Christmas from 5marts!

Took some time to do it last night. Specially made for this festive season. Another new designs based on our logo layout. More to come, promised! Heheh.. And Happy Birthday to Smarter KTKS!

"What to do if your birthday is on Christmas?!!"

Another 12 hours will be our smartest KTKS Birthday. Because of that, I took the initiative to help him Googling this search caption "What to do if your birthday is on Christmas". Below is the search results.

So surprisingly the very 1st results came out from WikiHow and the best thing it stated got 6 steps. I summarize it here and Kenny, you may check it here for more details hehehe.

Step 1 : Accept that your birthday is competing with an important festive occasion 

Step 2 : Look on the bright side

Step 3 : Talk to your parents, spouse, housemates or whoever else is responsible for throwing you a party

Step 4 : Put up birthday decorations as well as Christmas ones

Step 5 : Be appreciative of what you receive by way of gifts

Step 6 : Go online and commiserate with other Christmas Day babies (lol this is the funniest one)

That's all for your 31st Birthday jokes  

An early Happy Birthday wishes to you and wish you have a very wonderful Christmas & Birthday celebration with your love one.

Google Search Caption: Really Creative!!!

Google come up with some really funny illustration and is inviting you to put your most creative search caption base on the illustration. Or you may vote for some already published search caption which you think is very funny and creative. Check it out before your Christmas pre-celebration  

Take a look on some of my favorites and I do participate some of the illustration.

I AM PACKED

One of my favourite site lately. Its kinda fun to see what people packed for their trip. A really different and great idea from Air New Zealand. Go here to check it out.

冬至快乐

Taste of home is always the best. Hmm.. more about 冬至 or Winter Solstice.

那英 那又怎樣

Music of the month. Most played album in my iTune or iPod. One of the best Chinese album brought in this year. Tanya Chua must be the reason behind, the producer of the album. Love it!

The Smurfs kinda Birthday Party

It happen last weekend that I attended a baby boy's 1st birthday. The parents have set a theme attire for us, by wearing blue. Ok, that sounds easy. But when I been telling that its some kinda 'Smurfs' party, honestly I was like 'Yuck'! To me it was annoying enough even only the Smurfs movie poster. But sometime things are really fun when you didn't expect too much. It happen when this 10kg birthday cake arrived, and that was some kinda jaw dropping moment...

The creator or cake master behind. With his creativity only he himself knows the way to cut the cake. Hahaa.. Anyways, taste are no too bad either compare with the looks.

If you are keen on doing this kinda custom cake, go to the cake master's blog. Oops.. he did appeared in 5marts before! By the way, the Smurfs head endup appeared as most guest's profile picture that day! LOL~ And here is me acting silly Smurfs... Cheers!

DIY: Christmas Sneakers

Stayed in my things-to-do list for some time. Finally, took me a few hours to do it, and everyday to admire it! Hehee.. This is an old hi-cut sneaker from 5cm (a sub label from i.t), got it few years ago in Hong Kong. Still remember been devilish by Smarter b when doing his serious shopping during his visit. Hmm.. But now the silver material has already faded (as you can see in first pic), make it looks more like a history piece. So didn't wear it for a very.. long time. Since Christmas is around, add up a reason to make it a shoe to wear for the celebration...

Here goes my 'new' Christmas sneakers! Successfully Reborn! Cheers!!

Last chapter : The running journey begin

After the Penang Bridge Half Marathon 2011, I just manage to pull out some time to write this post as my last chapter. 


Yes, three of us had make it within the qualify time and get our very first precious finisher medal. It means a lot to us and the happiness is unspeakable. 


Is a persistent that made up of us come until this stage. Of course, there were some time that I think about give to give up during the mid training, but I know that if I were to give up, I will be regret for my whole life when I think about it. 

"Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever." by Lance Armstrong

Above the quote was in mine mind whenever I'm thinking to skip for my training schedule or to stop running in the middle of my long distance run. 

Lastly, below is the name list of my thousand thanks for your support and encouragement.

TANYA EASON JANE 新城極唱音樂會

Just found out in You Tube (above are search results in Google). I love Tanya Chua like i love Eason Chan, both of them could drag anything out from my wallet! LOL~ And this is their collaboration concert in 2010 together with Jane Zhang (one of the promising singer from China). So where is the Live DVD!? And why they didn't come out Live DVD!? WHY?????

CONVERSE CHUCK TAYLOR ALL STAR HI

Thought to add up another Harmoniously Contrast post. Hehe.. As I recall from an old article saying; "We learned to put up or keep add on things we love before the age of 40, and we learned to remove or reduce and left things we need after the age of 40". Almost like the KISS principle (Keep It Short and Simple) to me. And below is the item that matched the idea! It always give me the easiest right answer when im in a styling dilemma or selection phobia. Also my best travel companion when it only allow me to bring one sneakers. You can just wear any style with it without looking weird, and this is my magic shoes - CONVERSE CHUCK TAYLOR ALL STAR

The Above black one is the most basic design. Got it 2 years ago in Hong Kong, you can get the best price, sizes and models there. I picked leather model for more lasting and a bit characters when it aged like denim.

Just received this all white long waited model last few days. Hmm.. laws of attraction did a little help on this one! And found out both arrived to me exactly the same day; 16th November, in 2 years distance. I try to believe that there are something other than coincident. LOL~ So I fixed 16th of November as my Converse Day! Wear only Converse on this special day from now on! DEAL!
