September favorites

SEPTEMBER FAVORITES

September is definitely the month for 30 days of lists project

I am still keep my eyes open for iPhone 6. I have mixed feelings about it. I have not decided if I want to buy them or not
Project Life App is definitely the highlight of the month. I am loving the apps and so obsess with it.

I am definitely love the Maze Runner movie and also obsessed with The Fault in Our Stars movie and quotes.

I thought that UPSR exam will be over by now but I was totally wrong. I can't believe that the whole examination system has been tainted.

I think that September is a close to good reading month for me. I just finished reading the Silkworm and I am still processing. Such a long and complicated book. I've finished reading these books and these books for the month of September. That bring a total of 5 books this month. It's some kind of record for me.
I am finally caught up with Project Life layouts, thanks to Project Life App.
I am loving Witches of East End Season 2, Mistresses Season 2 and Teen Wolf this month. I am looking forward to Bones, Haven, Greys Anatomy, Scandal, Criminal Minds and CSI for the next month
A lof of books to read for next month because I bought a lot of books in September.

I hope you had an amazing September. No matter how hard life gets, try to stay positive and look for things to be grateful for.

Project Life [Week 39]

Ever since I got my hand on Project Life App I am totally hooked. I think for the rest of the year I am going to make my project life layout using only this app. I've finished making these layouts in less than 10 minutes. All my photos are from Dropbox that means I have access to all my photos any time any where. Maybe in the next update will have integration with Flickr.

THIS IS MY DIGITAL PROJECT LIFE FOR WEEK THIRTY NINE

Project Life [Week 39]

This week is an organising week. I want my work place to look different and energising. Looking for more modern and contemporary look. Getting rid of all of unnecessary clutter. I have way too much stuffs.

HERE IS MY WEEK IN PHOTOS

day 265- My iPhone at the moment. Currently I am in love with iPhone 5S. Not too crazy with iPhone 6. Hopefully by next year they will come up with a beautiful phone.

day 266- With my favourite coffee early in the morning at the office. The only thing that makes going to work worth while. Right now I am in the mode of rearranging and organising my office

day 267 - New books I ordered from Amazon.com arrived today. Too bad the other two books are paperback not hardcover.

day 268- Currently reading The Silkworm by Robert Galbraith. Such a long book and I am not sure if I can finished it this week.

day 269- I am in the middle of making an album for my son. He will be going to collage soon and I want to give him this album as a reminder of his life at home.

day 270- This little guy is way too cute playing by himself and just enjoying his environment. I went to Sony Centre yesterday and to my surprise there's no Sony Vaio in the store. Are they phasing out Sony Vaio all together? Hemmm...

day 271- My soon to be full book rack. I am going to finished reading all the books in here. Hopefully sometime this year.

------------------------------------------------------------------

These are my life in photos for week thirty nine. So many things happened and if I don't take the time to document them I might miss a lot. I still believe when you took the time to document the every day and the good things that happened in your life, you will be more grateful. Just saying.

Do you join Project 365 this year?

Today I ..

Today I

am still trying to get back on fitness wagon. So hard to maintain a consistent schedule when it comes to fitness
am watching Melissa and Joey Season 3. So fun watching those two
am browsing some old photos. I planning on making a Project Life Mini album for my kids
hope that I can do Get Ripped by Jari Love
am reorganising my room and my office
decide to do 30 days of gratitude - write down one thing I am thankful for, for 30 days
plan to download a few new ebooks
decided to continue with my lesson at Digital Art Journal class by Jessica Sprague. I learn a lot in her class
just love staying at home and be with my kids
a bit disappointed with the Education System lately. The next UPSR exam will be on the 30th September. Hopefully my daughter will do great
am writing in my journal and embracing my One Little Word action for the month.
have downloaded Supernatural Season 9. So I'll probably watched them back to back this weekend and this month. (if I can take the whole supernatural world back to back)
just realised that I haven't backup my August photos. Need to do that as soon as possible
feel a little bit disappointed with iPhone 6 or 6 plus review. I kind of hope that it is not as bad as I thought it was but it is bad. I really missed the good old days when I first saw iPhone , something new, exciting and out of this world. Lately there seems non of those are out there. Not even SONY can make me drool over their phone.
can't wait for OS Yosemite. I am hoping that this OS will at least surprise me and get me excited again
am loving Project Life App by Becky Higgins. At this app makes owning an iPhone worth it.

#thursday3 [25.09.2014]

I am having way too much fun with Canon Selphy CP910. The ability to print directly from my iMac using AirPrint is something I have been waiting for. I never thought printing wirelessly can be this much fun!

HERE ARE MY PHOTO AND FACTS FOR THE WEEK

#1. I am currently reading The Silkworm by Robert Galbraith. I still have not pick up to continue reading the Kill Order. Not sure when I will continue reading the book.

#2. I bought Canon Selphy CP910 last weekend in white. I have been printing like crazy for my Project Life mini album and my Smash book

#3. Finally I get my hands on Project Life app by Becky Higgins. This app alone makes having an iPhone worth while.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Think about it this way…If you take one picture and write down three facts each week — at the end of the year you’ll have more than 50 photos of yourself and 150 facts about what life has been like. It would make such an epic All About Me book — and most of the work is already done."

Follow along each week using the hashtag #thursday3 dan tagged me @hanizeyecandy. I want to see your selfie and read about you

#30lists Wrap Up Part 3

Today is the part three of 30 days of lists wrap up. We are in the third week of September and in less than ten days will be entering the last quarter of the year. I am happy that this week will be a little bit busy and hopefully I can squeeze a little bit time to do my art work. Exercise is a must for this week if I want to see results.

I am having so much fun squeezing this random list in my Project life page that I intend to continue doing so this week. I am not sure how long I will do this, hopefully till the end of the year.

I am reading the Silkworm and To the boys I've loved before this week. Hopefully I can finished them before October
I am loving the new iOS8. Still exploring the new features and hidden features.
I love watching all those Americans with their new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus. I still haven't decided yet if I want to upgrade. I am still loving my iPhone 5S so much.
I am obsessed with Project Life App. I've been making scrapbook layouts non stop.
Not sure what's going on around Malaysia. So far no shocking news.
I am watching the latest episode of Witches of East End. I am hoping that somehow those two girls are not dead.
Not sure if I should start reading The Scorch Trial also. I can't wait to see how this series goes. I am hoping that Dylan O'Brian will continue playing Thomas
I play with Selphy CP910 this weekend. Love sticking photos in my journal and smash book.

Easy journaling for my Project Life page. Can't wait to turn this into a journaling card.

Here are my take on the lists for day 17 - day 23

Here are my take on the lists for day 10 - day 16

Here are my take on the lists for day 01 - day 09

10 things // Project Life App

Finally I am able to get my hands on Project Life App and I am obsessed with it. On the day the app is available in the app store I immediately purchased it without thinking twice. It's the kind of app that you have been waiting for all your life as a memory keeper and a scrapbooker.

10 things why I'm in love with Project Life App

#1. The App is a universal app - that means I can make my Scrapbook layouts either on my phone or my iPad

#2. It comes with four beautiful kits from Project Life line. You can also buy more kits through InApp Purchased

#3. It also comes with a few classic and popular templates which makes creating scrapbook layout so much easier

#4. Easily print 4x6 photos directly from the app to AirPrint printer. I mostly used this to make a two 4x3 photos for my Project Life mini album or for my journal.

#5. Dropbox Integration is definitely a plus in my book. I kept most of my digital project life kits and photos in my dropbox. I can just pull out all the things that I need right from dropbox

#6. Easily add journaling right from the app. I just wish in the next version, I can add journaling on photos as well.

#7. Seamlessly sharing completed pages with friends and family – especially on Instagram

#8. Making a layout like these with my phone in less than two minutes

#ProjectLifeApp another quick and easy layout while relaxing on my sofa #projectlife #projectlife2014 #photooftheday

Another layout using #projectlifeapp. I just can't stop. So much fun and easy #projectlife #projectlife2014 #love #scrapbook

#9. Changing the templates to your liking is easy - you can change the background colour and even change the photo round corner to square corner effortlessly.

#10. When your basic layout is done, adding Lettering and elements becomes so much easier. I just export the photos and open the photo in Phonto to add a fe touches. I kind of hope that I can layer image or photos like Phonto in Project Life app.

If you only buy one app for scrapbook this year, Project Life App should be the app to buy. I am not an affiliate to Project Life or Becky Higgins, I am just a fan who enjoy beautiful things and simple and easy to use app.
