Fresh flower vs artificial flower

I aware that artificial flowers are getting popular now a day. Last time, people only buy artificial flowers for house decoration and opening ceremony. But now, artificial hand bouquet become popular too. People not care about the meaning of sending flowers anymore, and girls would not mind to receive artificial flowers from their lover anymore. Some people even use artificial hand bouquet for their wedding. People just concern about to keep for the flowers forever, they claim that fresh flowers die soon and it waste money.

However, I still encourage people to buy fresh flowers, although I sell both artificial and fresh flowers. We only could feel the liveness and nice aroma from fresh flowers, especially flowers like rose and lily, don't they smell nice and make ur day wonderful? I love to see people smell on the flowers when they receive it, I feel that they really know how to appreciate it. We need not keep the flowers forever, even the artificial flowers would become fate one day. However, a good memory would keep in our mind for a long long time and remember the person to give us the sweet memory.

Hiring new staff

Finally, I made up my mind to buy a second hand van, and I had it last week. The van condition is still good and need not much money to repair, thanks to dad for the effort to search for the van from one second hand car shop to another. We almost dropped by all the second hand car shops at Sungai Dua and Bagan Ajam.

Next, I hire a runner to do the delivery and collect payment. The runner was previously the owner of the bakery next door to us. I was so lucky that he agreed to work for me. It's not so easy to find good employee now a day. Today is his 3rd day working with us, and things run quite smooth. Let's see if I can be more relax in future, I really wish to have more time to work and study in finance. Wish me luck that the runner can work longer.

Back Back Back

I finally blog all my hong Kong trip, it took me nearly half a year.... :P. I wish after all my wedding, house renovation and Valentine's day have past, I could start to write my blog again. At least once a week, to make a record of my life, work and hobbies.

Hong Kong Trip - 5th day

After a 2 days 1 day short trip in Macau, we were back to Hong Kong. We didn't do much thing on that day, except eating and shopping.

We took a ride on tram.

And, hey it was a extra for us to bump into a Hong Kong super star Miriam Yeung on a Nike product launching somewhere in central district.


Classical street food in Hong Kong, milk tea, shark fin soup and curry fish ball.

Our last meal in Hong Kong in airport, BBQ meat rice.

Macau Trip - 4th Day


We went to Macau for a day. Again I was having seasick on the ferry, the worst thing was the weather too hot and the crowd really make me sick. I did not enjoy much at the tourism places, but luckily still managed to have a lot of fun in casinos and food.

Pork chop Burger.

Crab porridge.

Prawn eggs noodle.

Portuguese egg tart from the famous Margaret's Cafe, this was the most delicious egg tart I ever had.

Hong Kong Trip - 3rd day

We went to the Lamma Island on the 3rd day, I was so excited that I could escape from the hectic Hong Kong city. However, it wasn't a smooth journey as I had seasick. The waves are too strong.

My pale face upon arriving in Lamma Island.

However I had my appetite back after a walk around the Lamma Island. And this was our delicious Che Cai Noodle '车仔面’, it really tasted good.... yummy...


A photo took at Hong Kong Chai.

We had our luxury afternoon tea at renowned Jumbo floating restaurant at Aberdeen Harbour. Actually the price was not too expensive, but a lot of well known people had been visited this place, included Queen Elizabeth II. It's our pleasure to have afternoon tea here.


It was a bit weird to have dim sum at this hour, but we were casual on this trip and the dim sum taste really not bad.

Hong Kong Trip -2nd Day

It was a plenitude day, that we went to Lantau Island for the Po Lin Monastery, Causewaybay, Victoria Peak for the million dollar Hong Kong's night view, and a walk at night market at Miu Kai.


You need to climb on hundred steps to take a photo like this.


A photo of me at causeway bay.

Live band which sing classical old songs. I was so surprise to see the oldman dancing with the singer, that I saw him before in a TV program which introducing tourism in Hong Kong.

I am not so good in taking photograph, this is the best night view photo I took from The Peak.





Hong Kong Trip - 1st Day II

We continue our journey after lunch at Mong Kok. We started at gold fish market, flower market and then bird's market. Nonetheless, we spent most of our time in flowers market. I was so attracted by the variety and modern arrangement of flowers.
Gold fish market.


Flower market.
Pink peony. This is the first time I see real peony, I love it so much. Peony could be my favorite main flower in my flower arrangement if I could find it easily in Penang.

Special flowers species imported from Australia.


Lovely mix color roses, I believe this is a new species. Hope can see you soon in Penang.

Cute button chrysanthemum.

I love the style of hand bouquet in HongKong, just simple and elegance. These are my favorite hand bouquets, which wrapped in brown color. Its give me a lot of inspiration of my recent design.


Some cute flower arrangement in box, which are not so popular yet in Malaysia.


Aw.... these butterfly orchids are real, and nicely arranged. Wish I could have these all in my garden.

Bird's Market
