Needlework.
Friday, August 08, 2008 @ 12:14 AM Been sewing so much the past few weeks, my fingers are getting numb from all the needle pricks now. I tell you, it sucks to be sewing and admiring your work, when suddenly, you push in the needle a little too hard in the wrong direction and find it nestling in your warm flesh. Argh. (Sounds a lil' sick eh... Haha!) Anyway, it feels good to be sewing. It feels good to be doing something so matronly. I haven't really been in touch with my domestic side for ages. Just to let you know, I am actually a very domestic person. I love to cook, bake, clean and do little cute stuff like sewing little crafts. It's actually quite fun to do them, you know. I think its my little secret passion. I can so imagine you scrunching up your nose and thinking that I'm a bit mad now. Henry actually said I should make use of my crafty talent to go and set up a business selling crafts, pillows specifically. I could just imagine his business mind clicking at that very moment he uttered that. However, I only laughed and mentioned who would buy them? And he said he would. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Awwww, so sweet. (*Notice that I don't use the word 'Awwww' often because I find it a bit too sickly sweet when used by the wrong people. So, if I use it it has to be something really good.) I believe if I wasn't a student, I would be a housewife. *grins* .. . . . . . . . Okay, maybe not. A bit too far-fetched. I might eventually get bored staying at home 365 days a year, and what else to do besides going to community centres to sign up for random cooking courses or maybe go shopping once in a while in Tanglin? I think I would be better at work. Interaction with humans and knowledge of general issues would make me more in tune with the ways of the world. I don't know how some housewives can just spend their whole married lives at home lah. Wouldn't it get boring one day? But then again, thinking about it, it ain't a bad job lah. You get to do whatever you want whenever you want it, no work stress. You get to do fun things like buying groceries and cooking dinner for your husband when he comes back from work, you clean your home the way you want, without having to worry about a maid laundering your clothes wrongly. Damn fun lah. Unless you're the type who hates cleaning and cooking. But I love. ****** Anyway, I'm still sewing my little project but I'll let you know what is it exactly that I'm spending so much time on soon! Right after I finish. Stay tuned. (: |
