Wallet Semi Final

 Some people just want to use your mistake for their own benefits. Else who will foot the bill for the crime. Yet, if this is the only way, a person who steal will always find ways to steal. Watching The Artful Dodger…

My wallet was almost done now but it can be served as a wallet even before fully down so I was pretty satisfied. There is still room for improvement. Right now it looked better than I intended with my skills. Sewing wise, I may need to change the technique used else, it just looked ugly on closer look. One last part, I can collect tomorrow. As for the improvement, it can only be done on next wallet. 

Mistakes? yup. My magnet button was done on the opposite side… I learnt how to disassemble it. Never rush because it makes a 3 minutes job, 13 minutes. 10 minutes just trying to find the tools and disassemble it without the proper tools. I used screwdriver because we don’t have a pinchers (if that is what it was called). My engraving was done wrong side up…. I didn’t really decide which side is face or back. The cheap engraving tools was useful but I have to engrave it with awl to enhance the engravings else it will disappear the next day. One other thing to learn will be leather material differences. It seems the material I bought was rather soft yet not easy to punch through or cut through. Doesn’t look like the material I saw youtuber has shown. Theirs was more cardboard like. Mine felt rubbery. Hope it’s not a fake. I couldn’t trim the side too because the trimmer will squeeze it but not cut it…

I shall present my first design. It is the one on the right side. The one on the left was my first wallet. I bought it for 50 dollars when I was still in my first real job. It has been 2011 back then. It has been 12 years. Not Tuition money, not from part time with my parents, and not from my parents. The right one cost me more… After buying all the tools and materials, I think it costed about 130-150 dollars. I think it was worth it the moment I have the final product. Accomplishment ticked.

Contrary

 Parents don’t even want to waste money on broom and fan . Kid bought robot vacuum for wife. Said saving. Parents don’t even have a proper TV , son bought big TV. Everything asked from others and worked so many years, yet never saved anything? how is that possible?  Liars and Cheater. May you get what you deserve.  我的闲是为了让有心机的人不得逞。 Do things for 15 years and wanted to claim the things people done for 50 years.

Amount

 The amount I spent on learning before applying actually costed me more money until I do enough work. Still learning process is still needed even while working.  Doing things subconsciously can make the easiest problem complicated. Could be your old habits or subconscious typing or the auto correction? hm.. This one is more like my habit. It is a hard to catch error when we did like that. I was thinking what goes wrong and no matter what I did, it would not return my desired results. Turned the code that I wrote previously and just a line only which I overlooked while checking, was blocking the rest of the changes… Dangerous code is the counter code that you wrote to right a wrong or blocking the wrong from working. That’s normally a temporary solution but the solution turned out to be preventing me doing other works… sigh… 😮‍💨  Today’s a lucky day and I found it while doing another part… so it is good not to always focus on one problem. The other problem could be the c...

Doing good?

 Doing good to me or using me? Even if you do good to me also didn’t required you to disrespect or undermine me. Ownself so fake said other people fake. Behind talk bad about other people in front smile and praise. Some more about the people who helped them. Couldn’t help look down on them too. I also did good to you so I can undermine you anyhow I like. I merely do what you do to me you already angry. I treated you like a family and respected you but now you lost all the respect so don’t put the fault on me when you break the string first. Some more your character started showing a long long time ago. You didn’t change, you are getting worst. Treat you like gold, you treated me as shit. Once useless, tried to siam as soon as possible. Worst still, putting me as the problem solved all your problems. I also realised why you suddenly unhappy even more than before when I came back. You are worried I would take all that belongs to you. So just prove how greedy you are. I don’t even hav...
