I’ve spent some days with my niece last week… It was fun! She was born just when I had left for London so I’d never seen her. They say she takes after me in looks and character: self-willed and stubborn… *hehe* She has all the typical Indonesian features and even my curly hair… Having the opportunity to spend some time with her and her little brother of eight months was a welcome break from all the hard work!

Im still busy with the eCommerce website for the African artefacts company. I’ve decided to start allover again with regard to the product images, they were in a bad condition: wrong sizes, all different sizes, wrong format, wrong quality etc. I’ve been cropping, retouching, colour managing and resizing the originals. About half of them and I’m still not done… but at least it looks a lot better than it was: a lot!

I’ve received a letter about the job in China, there might be a complication with regard to getting a work permit but I’m invited to send a CV in English and a few samples of my work. I need to contact the intermediary because he told me this semester was booked already so it would be for the next starting in January. I so hope this isn’t going to fail because of one small unexpected trivial issue *sigh*.

Tomorrow I’m invited for coffee at my neighbour’s and I’m looking forward to this. It’s always nice to meet new people! In the meantime I’ve been doing research after I had an extremely motivational chat with my sis-in-law last week. She said to follow my heart and dreams and just ‘do it’: what is keeping me? Nothing should be keeping me, so out with the Moleskine to jot down notes and make some sketches!

I rest my case… *hehe* (my niece on the left, me on the right)

Busy little thing already… and yes it’s the same table: odd huh?

Look at them curls! And humour too!
