MONOGRAM
OBJECTS
OBJECT NO.1
PERFUME BOTTLE WITH A TAG
BEHIND THE TAG IS ANOTHER READING 'MOM'
THIS PERFUME BOTTLE IS NOT ORDINARY, IT'S THE PERFUME MY MOM HAS BEEN USING SINCE I WAS VERY YOUNG. WHICH IS WHY WHENEVER I SMELL THIS SWEET SCENT, IT REMINDS ME OF ALL THE GOOD OLD DAYS, AND ALL THOSE MEMORIES I CHERISH. IT'S VERY SPECIAL TO ME. THE PERFUME SENT MAKES ME FEEL AS IF MY MOM IS SOMEWHERE AROUND ME EVEN WHEN SHE'S NOT. AS I LIVE VERY FAR AWAY FROM MY FAMILY NOW DUE TO STUDIES, THIS PERFUME MAKES ME FEEL LIKE MY MOM IS NEAR ME, HENCE THE SECOND TAG READS 'MOM'. I LOVE YOU MOM!
OBJECT NO.3
A SHAWL AND A TAG ATTACHED TO IT.
THE TAG IS PRESENTED IN A WAY AS IF IT IS HAND SOWN LIKE THE SHAWL ITSELF.
THIS IS MY GRAND MOM'S SHAWL. AND I BROUGHT THIS SHAWL ALONG WITH ME WHEN I MOVED TO MALAYSIA, IT'S A NICE MEMORY OF HER, BECAUSE SHE ALWAYS WEARS SHAWLS WHENEVER SHE GOES OUT. MY GRAND MOM WAS THE ONE WHO TAUGHT ME HOW TO SEW AND GOT ME MORE INTERESTED IN CRAFTS AND PAINTING, AS SHE HERSELF WAS A VERY CREATIVE PERSON. WHICH IS WHY THE MONOGRAM IS MADE IN THE MEMORY OF MY GRAND MOM.
OBJECT NO.4
A SILVER BOX WITH MONOGRAM ON THE LID
INSIDE IS A BRACELET
A CLOSER VIEW OF THE MONOGRAM
A CLOSER VIEW OF THE BRACELET AND THE CHARMS
THIS 5TH OBJECT HAS ONE MONOGRAM BUT ON TWO OBJECTS, THE BOX AND THE TAG FROM WHICH THE BRACELET IS HUNG. THIS CHARM BRACELET IS VERY PERSONAL, BECAUSE 1ST OF ALL, I MADE IT BY MYSELF, I CHOSE EACH OF THE CHARMS HERE AND ATTACHED IT TO THE BRACELET. SO EACH OF THESE CHARMS REPRESENT A PART OF MY LIFE AND ME, FOR EXAMPLE- THE "AIRPLANE" IS THERE BECAUSE I HAVE TRAVELED A LOT OF PLACES AND WISH TO CONTINUE TRAVELLING BECAUSE I LIKE IT AND IT IS ADVENTUROUS, SECONDLY THE "CAMERA" REPRESENTS HOW MUCH I LOVE CAPTURING PHOTOS OF THE SPECIAL MOMENTS, THE "CUPCAKE" IS THERE BECAUSE I LOVE CUPCAKES AND SO ON. AND EACH BIRTHDAY I KEEP ADDING ONE MORE CHARM TO IT.
OBJECT NO.2
A BOOK AND A BOOK MARK
THE BODY OF THE BOOK MARK HAS A ROSE PATTERN
A CLOSE UP OF THE BOOK MARK
THE BACKSIDE OF THE BOOKMARK
THIS BOOK WAS GIVEN TO ME BY MY ELDER SISTER AS A FAREWELL GIFT. I LOVE READING THIS BOOK AND I HAVE BEEN HEARING STORIES OF BOTH THIS BOOK AND THE WRITER FROM MY MOM SINCE I WAS YOUNG, SO IT'S REALLY EXCITING THAT I'M FINALLY BEING ABLE TO READ THIS BOOK. EVEN THE BOOKMARK I MADE, THE MATERIALS USED MEAN A LOT TO ME. THE BODY OF THE BOOK MARK IS MADE OUT OF A WHITE ROSE PRINTED PAPER, THIS IS THE SAME PAPER I ALWAYS USE TO WRITE LETTERS TO MY DEAR ONES. AND LASTLY ITS THE MAIN PART IS BLACK AND GOLDEN, BECAUSE THAT IS MY SISTER'S FAVORITE COLOR COMBINATION. SO THIS IS LIKE DEDICATED TO MY ELDER SISTER.
OBJECT NO.4
A GIFT WRAPPED BOX
INSIDE THE MONOGRAM
ALONG WITH ARE TWO RINGS INSIDE
A CLOSE UP OF JUST THE RINGS
THESE TWO RINGS ARE LIKE PROMISE RINGS. A PROMISE TO NEVER FORGET EACH OTHER, AND TO NEVER BREAK THE FRIENDSHIP. IT'S A SYMBOL OF THE STRONG BOND MY FRIENDS AND I HAVE. THE BLACK RING HAS THE 'BATMAN' LOGO ON IT. AND THE GOLDEN RING HAS 'FOREVER' WRITTEN ON IT, MY OTHER TWO BEST FRIENDS HAVE THE 'BEST'AND 'FRIENDS' RINGS, SO THE THREE SPELLS OUT 'BEST FRIENDS FOREVER'. THE BATMAN RING IS GIVEN TO ME BY ANOTHER CHILDHOOD FRIEND WHO LIVES IN ANOTHER COUNTRY NOW, BUT THE DISTANCE WILL NOT WEAKEN OUT FRIENDSHIP, SO THIS RING IS A REMINDER OF ALL THOSE MEMORIES, AND IT IS A PROMISE TO NEVER LET THE DISTANCE COME IN BETWEEN. I ALWAYS WEAR THESE TWO RINGS, BECAUSE IT IS NICE TO HAVE AN REMINDER THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO LOVES ME EVEN THOUGH WE ARE NOT CONNECTED BY BLOOD. THE MONOGRAM IS A DEEP ROYAL BLUE COLOR, BECAUSE IT'S MY FAVORITE COLOR, AND THE MATERIALS USED ARE SHINY AND GLITTERY TO REPRESENT THE FACT THAT OUR FRIENDSHIPS HAVE A BRIGHT FUTURE FILLED WITH MORE FUN.
