My New Interest

Recently I’ve got a new hobby. Ha! Perhaps I’m a little old for hobbies (I think!). Aren’t hobbies meant for the young? I remember those days when I was twelve and signed off autograph books (Yeah! I’m sure you remember those times where we passed around little books with pretty pictures for our friends to write some words before we part way from primary school… roses are red, violets are blue…) of friends with my name, my address, my favourites, and yes!… my hobbies! Then, it was like my hobby is reading, watching tv… blah blah blah…. Ah…so typical…. Typically boring… =p

Inspired by the recent trends of wearing beads and being too cheapo to buy them, I decided to make my own DIY beaded jewellery. Then started a keen attempt at bead shopping. However, after an hour in a bead shop, overwhelmed by thousands of beads and thousands of varieties…. I was stumped! I left the shop empty handed. And concluded that I am destined to buy jewellery off the shelves!

However, I couldn’t stop surfing the web for beading ideas. And looking at all the beautiful pieces of art online, I resolved to take the first step and see how I go from there!

And guess what?! The best part of this is that I realized how supportive my Man is! Knowing my short attention span, and tendencies to give up my interests halfway, the sweet dear allowed me to spend a ‘little’ of our savings on my new hobby! He even came up with ways to promote my ‘merchandise’ so I could set up my own beaded jewellery line in the (impossible) future! Heh, and he’s got the logo all thought out already! (Right! I too wonder if he’s working hard enough in Paris, with all this planning! =p)

Alright. In between I had to wake him up mid conversation a few times to listen to me yak about my bead discoveries. But that is really beside the point huh?

Hmm… I really can get used to this marriage thingy…knowing someone will support the decisions I make and any silly hobbies I decide to partake! And even if I gave up, he’ll laugh it off and welcome any other thing that catches my attention again… I really love this Man! =*
