Fuí a su casa a fumar un porro. Me invitó a cenar. Despúes de ese porro vinieron otros hasta acabarnos la cerveza. Apenas hablamos. Fue genial.

 

I went to his house to smoke a joint. He invited me for dinner. We smoke more joints until we finished the beer. We hardly spoke. It was great.

I've been searching for a perfect little notebook for all my needs, most serve the note taking purpose but lacks photo journaling features, GTD elements, or refillable with nice leather covers. I have a passion for Moleskine and Traveler's Notebook, but a product with the combination of their features, in addition to some of my own note taking practice, is difficult to find. So I set out to play with some customizations and adaptations on scrap materials.......

As much as I like technology, nothing can replace a good old notebook. Best for taking notes:)

Someone left a blue biro on my desk at work. I happened to be there for a couple of nights, so I wondered what I could draw in my notebook that were blue.

I carry this notebook with me all the time. The first page has a photo of my late wife which I took when we visited the church at Shere in Surrey. Sadly she died on Saturday 21 June 2003 – thirteen years ago today.

16 years ago I took a picture of my messy Moleskine www.flickr.com/photos/adulau/149754989 and shared it in flickr. After many years of writing in various notebooks, I share a stack of some my old and open notebooks.

A mini-notebook that my mom bought for me yesterday. She knew that I love notebooks. I don't know why but I have a thing for it. I just collect it and don't write anything except for my name. I consider it as one my guilty pleasure, haha. :D how 'bout you guys, what's your guilty pleasure? :)

It's fun to write the memories of the trip or something on a notebook.

This weeks Macro Monday theme is "Back to school". When I was a kid, I always enjoyed going back to school every September. There were some years that the first day of school landed on the same day as my birthday (Sept. 5th) which wasn't always so nice lol.

 

One of my favourite new school supplies was getting packs of lined paper. I always started the new school year off with writing neatly on fresh pages of crisp white paper but by the end of the school year my writing always got sloppier. Haha! But I always had good intentions every start of the school year to put forward my best effort and to do really well...starting with good writing and note taking skills. :D

 

HMM everyone!

washi tape makes everything pretty!

When I told my poet husband the theme for this week he brought me one of his old notebooks and I got the distinct vibe that he would love to have this sticker immortalised. This one of rhe other stickers on the notebook.

A selection of the notebooks I have kept. Front and center is the one that rides around in my purse to collect thoughts and ideas, but there are personal journals, class notebooks, a work notebook, a home-maintenance log and an old Wiktionary notebook in here, too.

By the way, I didn't do this little drawing in the corner of the page. The notebook came this way!

Fungus Workshop Leather Craft

 

I learned leather craft from a few books but I felt kind of lonely just doing things I like all by myself. Thanks to Bubi Au Yeung, a figurine artist, who told me about Fungus Workshop, so I signed up for a beginner's class, two lessons passed and I got to know stuffs I didn't learn from books, plus knowing these passionate people who enjoy life and craft genuinely, which is kind of rare in a city like Hong Kong.

 

Each classmate choose what he/she would like to do from a bunch of samples. I chose to do something in the line of stationery (later I will do a camera/laptop messenger bag). Their template was a notebook cover, but I decided to make it a GTD index card holder. After finishing it, I decided to add a notebook for note taking and an antique key to nostalgize the whole thing.

 

For all leather projects I did, improvisation in the last minute seems to add beautiful touches to a plain project. As you can see, the enclosure here doesn't wrap the back of the cover to the front, instead it leaves the back wide open so I can dangle the whole notebook or even hook it up to my messenger bag.

 

Instead of a Moleskine notebook, I put a Rhodia notebook inside just because of its bright orange color, to lighten up a bit. However, I hate the fact that the PU cover of Rhodia discolored after just 6 months from my acquisition of it. In addition, it just doesn't lie flat like a Moleskine does when opened. Anyhow, the discoloration did added the raw and battered look I like.

 

For those of you who are in Hong Kong and hunger for leather craft, I highly recommend Fungus Workshop. Hoiming and Baldwin, Grace and Philip, all four are friendly souls you can chat with and learn from. I am so happy Hong Kong is catching up with Japan and Taiwan in leather crafting. Keep it up Fungus!
