Take me on a journey, my journal

I started art journaling since 2008.

Love the massive / bulky / hulking content that I try to fill it until it's limit.

The journal book (2008) was bought from the Arch ~ brown kraft paper. This journal recorded my first attempt in Art Journaling, playful Soul Journal class conducted by Sarah Whitmere and subsequent with True North Arts, Kathryn Costa. I still remember the great time that we all had.       

Journal book of 2010 was brought back from Bahrain, from a local supplier. The daily diary page that drove me to write/put in some(every)thing everyday.

Journal book of 2011 was a gift from my former boss. There are hard divider nicely place within each of the month. Year 2011 was a mixture year that my mood swing upside down.

The handy Journal of 2012 was Monologue. A new journal that recorded the experience of new career path. I had make a tremendous change in my life story.

2013 Journal is from Moleskine (a legendary notebook). I have been hear about this brand journal repeatedly since year 2008 perhaps. I bought the first Moleskine from Taiwan (as it was not available in Malaysia yet). However, it was then beautiful wrapped and gave out as a gift. So, I bought myself the legendary notebook early of 2013 as a gift for myself 

It still have few more pages left as at today..

How is my 2014 Journal book will look like ?

Some photos that I feel so guilty if I'm not sharing it ...

I've capture from the display booth at Kinokuniya bookstore (Japanese book section).

I scream .... "So kawaii".  

Culture Street, Old JB (Johor Bharu) Town

I'm fascinated about backstreet look like ..

my little loved one carried her umbrella claiming that she want to good use her umbrella..

There was a cultural show at Saturday night

The weather was hot and thought it would be great idea for the cafe house to shade under the 'leaves'. 

However, too bad the cafe house is not in business that day. 

Those pictures are shot from our recent heritage walk to Old JB town (Day 1), other than Penang and Melaka  (Malacca).  

We spend our 3 days (very short) here in JB for company's Family Day.  

Day 1 ~ Drive of 5 hours from Kuala Lumpur to Johor

Day 2 ~ Legoland

Day 3 ~ Old JB town again for good food and visit to Culture Museum.

**************

We just realised that we do not make any trip out early of the year. 

Most of the months was spend on work and works..

I still have 8 days leave balance to be carried for next year after consideration of study/exam leaves 

and Dec leaves.
