It's the time of a year again to celebrate the month of love. This year, like last year, Thailand Post has issued the "Rose" postage stamp in the vertical shape. The rose featured in this year stamp is "Chulalongkorn" rose, a hybrid between a European rose and a Chinese rose. The rose was named after His Majesty the King Chulalongkorn (King Rama V) by the Royal consort, Her Highness Princes Jao Dara Rasamee in remembrance of her Royal husband. In fact, H.H. Princess Jao Dara Rasamee had her own experimental farm in Dara Pirom Palace in Mae Rim district, Chaingmai province. One of her favorite species of rose is this beautiful "Chulalongkorn" rose which has a long straight stem with a big dark pink flower and a strong sweet fragrance. Thus, the "Chulalongkorn" rose stamp is a perfect love memorabilia.

It has been exactly a year since I wrote about Swarovski Crystal Society Thailand "Harmony" Launch Party. Today, 1 year after that post, I continued the crystal journey to the second piece of the "Wonders of the Sea" Trilogy 2005-2007, "Eternity." SCS Thailand "Eternity" Launch Party was held at the same date and place as last year: the first Saturday of February at the Royal Ballroom, the Oriental Bangkok. Even though the designer of this second creation is not the same person as the first, the concept of the trilogy has been kept and expanded professionally. "Harmony" and "Eternity" could be placed together in perfect harmony. Isn't it wonderful?

I haven't updated my other blog at Sunny's Diary for almost 4 months. Now, it's a good time to add a couple of interesting stamp sets into my collection. The first set is a stamp which was set to release last year, however due to technical difficulty, it was postponed and finally released this year to commemorate His Majesty The King's birthday. It's the "New Theory" Agriculture According to His Majesty's Initiative Project Postage Stamp. The other interesting stamp set released in the same day (5th December) is the Highly Revered Monk Postage Stamp, which depicts 4 of Thai greatest monks from past to present.
