My treasured pieces

It's that time of the year again when we do SPRING CLEANING! It's Chinese New Year soon and honestly...*blush*...this is the time when I spring clean my room - from the closet to the cabinets. EVERYTHING...nothing escapes my radar.

This year round, I dig out some old flames. My first and also one of my favourite musical box. It feels good to listen to it once again - it's like remembering some long forgotten memories. And look at that christmas globe! That has survived the years and until this year, it finally gave way. The little tree kind of 'up-rooted' but because it fits snugly in that glass sphere, it managed to stay upright. This tree really came a long way because out of curiosity, I almost break it when I was younger - just to know if the water can flow out from the bottom. I didn't quite like it back then, I don't know why. Also, I thought those dotted deco looks a lot like colored sunny-side up.

Now, it is a precious remembrance of my childhood.


Besides that, I also rearranged a lot of presents which my friends gave me for birthday. I love every single one of them especially this one! It was handmade and I think it made a really lovely gift:) When you grow older, other people don't spend time to make something for you. It is much easier and probably suiting to BUY something that you need. So, these things are also part of the treasures stored in my pirate chest. These are the things which would make you smile when you look at them 40 years later.

No worries Jenny. My room is messy too and I only clear it before CNY. Hahah. :P
