About Me

My name is Helena (Asmus) Lim.  I am a simple run of the mill person, looking for answers and clarity in life, trying to live a life fuller of purpose and giving, and enjoying my passions and interests.

shCredo was one of my very first sites, and in About shCredo, I talked about the meaning of shCredo, and what the mission and hopes for this site are.

I almost never look good in photos but there is part of the human psyche that enjoys have a look at a mugshot - so here is mine, looking kind of silly but most importantly, happy (2010).

And for those eager to read even more about the not-so-mysterious me, you can read My Life in a Nutshell, which gives a brief summary and a glimpse into my up and down journey up to June 2010.

There are many things I am passionate about and some of them have found themselves onto websites - both for my own record-keeping and just to share and to give back.

shCREDO is the site I am most attached to (even when I am not working on it) because it is the most personal to me.  I consider shCREDO as the parent to all the other sites and locations where I spend so much of my heart and time.  shCREDO by dint of the fact that it enunciates and embodies most of my most valued and guiding beliefs, also plays a major role in the underlying reasons giving rise to my other sites.

My Other Sites and Locations where I Roam

  • ClearlyChosen (main) - where I take pleasure in promoting items, ideas, and people of quality.  The aim is to cull out the non-useful and highlight the greats

  • ClearlyChosen's Swarovski store - specializing in quality jewelry making products and specifically on Swarovski crystals and findings.  (Authorized distributor of Swarovski Create Your StyleTM & SWAROVSKI ELEMENTSTM)

  • ClearlyChosen's Swarovksi Library - providing detailed, hard to find information on Swarovski products and articles on jewelry making and crafts

  • ClearlyChosen & Family Zazzle store - customized and customizable products featuring the widely different art styles from some members of my beloved family

  • helenalim - a fully private site where I can jot down my thoughts and ideas that are not yet ready to face the world

  • NetWebbing (IT) - technology related articles and easy tutorials.  Step-by-step guides to simplify the complex world of web, IT, and the like

  • JEM Library (likely to be discontinued at some stage) - information on gems, jewerly making, beads, materials, and findings

  • JewelryMaking-Beads-Library - hosted on the SBI platform, it was one of my earliest documentation into the world of jewerly making and contains core essentials and basic information

  • segue2 - a site where anything goes.  Topics are open and can segue to anything else.  It is a fun site to just relax and have a random read about anything

  • Xav Says blog (Jan 2011) - a blog that I run for Xav with hopes that he finds his voice (which is always interesting) and one day, might take the reins in his own capable hands and manage the blog himself.  I long to see him find his feet and hear him find his voice because I sincerely believe that the world and he will be a better whole when he does
