“Anxiety is part of creativity, the need to get something out, the need to be rid of something or to get in touch with something within.” - David Duchovny

 

 

If you’re wondering (which I guess means that you don’t follow me on my other social medias), yes I still take orders for diaper cakes and gift baskets! All previous orders are updated on my Diaper Cake & Such Facebook PAGE (do click LIKE if you think my craft deserves it) and on Diaper Cake & Such BLOG as well. I’m currently contemplating a business proposal, a joint venture one might say; weighing the terms presented and asking myself, do I really want this? Do I need to compromise in return for good money? Should I do this? And the ultimate question: Will I have time for this?

 

I mean, I started this side business because I enjoy doing it, side income is a major bonus but mostly it is for the artsy side of me. To fulfill my need to unleash my creativity, to scratch the itch, you know what I mean? Duchovny, a sex addict he may be, got it right with that quote. Just last night, I was itching to make something, I actually felt my heart beat faster because I needed, wanted, and was actually craving to make something! So balik rumah tak sempat tukar from my work clothes, I completed a gift basket which is only due on January 6th. Cray-cray I know.

 

But I think most of us have this side to us; some (like my husband) are more musically inclined (do you know that he sings beautifully, plays the guitar, took a drum lesson once and can draw as well; I don’t know why he’s still a lawyer), some are into photography, some loves scrap-booking documenting their lives; and me, I’m into making gifts for your loved ones! And while we’re at that, let’s have a look at the recent gift baskets that I made, shall we? I’m not particularly awesome but I put love and effort in every single one of my creation!

Oh while we’re on this ‘creativity’ subject, last night Hadi handed me a headphone and he put one on himself too. He said, “Mama nyanyi tadadadadadadadadada” (irama lagu sang by Upin Ipin masa school concert, the staging of Pengembala Kambing by the kids), “Hadi nyanyi InsyaAllah, cepat, nyanyi sama-sama.” You see what he did?! He mashed up the songs! Man, were we damn proud or what.

He’s going to be a successful music producer one day. Haha lame, overproud parents.
