i've always had an unfailing love for crafts..
started with little projects in primary school like origami, cutting out pictures from newspapers and pasting them onto cardboard.. making loads of bookmarks, etc.

these things then just died along the way, partly because time didnt allow for it, compulsory art lessons slowly faded away and that well i guess life became a bit more complex than an innocent child crafting her time away..

till a few years back when i stumbled upon a few craft sites, now called indie (independent) design sites which sell their original works. mostly bags, jewellery, and my favourite.. plush!! well i do love bags too. hehe. partly cause i can carry them around. but who says u cant carry plush around either?!?
but these things dont come cheap, partly because u're paying for one-off designs and such stuff are also handmade *LOVES* hurhur. but i guess lemming for them makes it all the more fun~
though i havent bought from any site (because i'm a poor dirty beggar), i REALLY hope to in the future. like PRONTO!! heehe..
and indie designers REALLY make me wanna accomplish my dream (idealistic or not i do not know) of having my little shop~~ online i would think, and a few consignment items in some established brick-and-mortar shop. hurhur~~~~

but i guess what's holding me back is that i'm not sure how successful i'll be. well the obvious way to find out is to try. hahah. but got no time!! how??!?
that's why i feel like quitting school already. hurhurhur.

well just to share a little local site i found today that kept me glued to the screen for hours. hehe. even if it means just looking at all the creations ALL OVER AGAIN. hurhurhur..
and they started only recently in oct2006, but they sure are making good business and press!


some of my favourite pieces.. so cute eh!!! haha i'm gg down to MAAD @ red dot museum this sat to catch them!! 11am-8pm :) blogger is acting stupid again. pictures later!

ramblings

rarrrr.

just got back and realise my white pants was stained by the red tshirt next to it while it was hanging up to dry.

rarrrrr.

dinner with the man's family at joochiat..some hokkien food.. food was ok to me :P but the rochor canal dao huey was to die for. hurhur.

joochiat's a cool place, with loads of funky industrial cum homeuse kitchen equipment. popcorn machine, waffle maker, various sizes of woks, toaster ovens, flat pans for frying oyster omelette (yumyum!!!) and huge pots that even norman could squeeze into.. yadayadayada..

the arches on my feet are hurting. argh. need to wear my birks tmr.

2 humongous bits of lizard shit are sitting on my desk. eeyuk. which means the owner is a huge ass thing as well. arghhh.

skin's been rather sensitive of late.. itching pretty much everywhere.

ears are back to the itchy stage as well. boo.

i foresee stress in school. rarrrrr. rarrrrr.

aiyohhh!!! i feel like i need to scream!!

i think.

of many things..

heehee.. well.. valentine's.. chinese new year.. vacation break have all passed / nearly over :P and i've yet to update me blog!!!! uggghhhh.. well cant have the complete set of pics i wish to update cos my sd card is not with me..

**valentine's day**
heehee.. well it was a pretty shitty day to start with as interim crit was gg to be the next day.. *yikes!!!*
anyhowww i met mr teo at his posh and elitist campus *grrrr* after his lessons ended at 2030. He said he had something for me which (he thought) i needed and i didnt even have his v-day gift at all -____0""

so anyhow.. i was filled with suspense "what the hell is it that i need when i dont even know what i need?!?"

so anyhow.. to cut the story short, it was a pair of crocs!!! no.. not your typical fugly ones.. but tadah!!! so pretty right :P

he wanted to get me a pyrex glass waterbottle ($40 odd!!!) at first.. haha but the crocs caught his eye later :P so anyhow the ironic thing is that when i showed him the crocs at holland v, i didnt know that he already got it for me!! hahahaha

so anyhow, back to the story.. i treated the man to a french dinner at "le petite cuisine" at serene centre.. it wasnt terribly ex.. but haha well it was a nice dinner ok!!!! and dinner was topped off with a little indulgence at island creamery.. hurhur.. *pats tummy*

**chinese new year**

tis the season for getting free money.. so i'd better enjoy it while it lasts.. hehe..

and dunno how come.. my ang pao money from norm's parents almost trebled!!! wah!! how come ahhh..

anyhow.. that's all gg to the big fat bank :) yippee!! well.. not all though.. i just treated myself to a $10 interior design magazine.. heehee..

and walauuuu the dreaded (well i shouldnt use that harsh a word) question has popped out "so when are u getting married ahhhhh" -____-"""

we were at his dad's friend's place (uncle Thomas) and there were a bunch of people at the mahjong table.. and some random auntie (who of course presumably knows the man) asked him that!!!

aiyohhh after that stage will be "when are u having a baby huhhhh" aiyoh. and soon without realising it, i'll be hitting auntie-dom soon. boo.

**vacation hols**

i must really seriously be a boo-boo head.

i forgot there was a lesson this morning!!!!!! ugh. bobby will totally diss me off ughhh

but then again.. irene told me he didnt even realise i was there.. like kns can!!

the whole studio was there summore :( ughhhhh!!!!!!

aiyah. will settle this mess when i get back to school lah. shitz..

on a happier note, i take back my dismissal of korean dramas. hurhur..

just watched "my sassy girl" and "full house" and boy are they addictive and funny!!! hahaha.. whoops. and i will blame "full house" for my total forgetfullness of this morning's lesson. ugh.. grrrrrrr..

i was so happy and dreamy after the show.. watched 3 dvds back to back leh!!! aiyah. well i only have myself to blame lah actually. zzz..

and u might have realised by now.. "WHERE ARE THE BLOODY PICTURES!!!"

blogger. is. stupid. period. grrr. cant post my own pics..zzz.. later!! this post will be updated with more goodies!!

grrrrrr. anyway on a happy note, i've done the laundry, washed the fan and mopped the floor (with a rag!!!) :D
i is happies my room is nice and clean again..

just that it's rather scary that all the dust is purple and not the typical grey cos i'm using a purple towel. which incidentally leaves purple fur on me after i use it!! ahhh!!!!!!!!

argh. hostelites have released their innermost capabilities that makes them the stereotypical public nuisance(s).

alarm clock ringing at 11.30pm - check.
still ringing at 11.40pm. - check.
loud hedious music - check.
bimbotic laughing - check.
egoistic testosterone interactions - check.

i am an extremely frazzled member of the public, about to take my 2-metre-span sickle and swipe every darn vermin off this place which i would very much like to remain my so-called peaceful abode.

these annoyances are minute compared to the disgusting inefficiency i am experiencing from studio work. i feel constipated. and $##@!%$!%!%)$)#)$)!$(!)$(

signs that my blood pressure is rising and about to blow -
- expletives are coming out of my mouth and fingers (on msn) like never before.
- i feel giddy.

those 2 reasons are more than enough.
happy food. pronto.

edit: alarm clock still ringing at 12.20am. - check. -_-"""

tralala havent had much material to blog about lately. been so darn busy and i'd rather keep the bitching to verbal conversations in case ANYTHING happens.

went for an urban kidz dinner thingy at the former apollo hotel held at some ulu pandan place. but the food was goooood!!
smoked salmon, baby potato salad, tomato and salted egg vingrette salad ( i know weird but nice!), hams, sushi, fish fillet thingys, creme brulee!!! wah!! so nice!! :D

and the theme was "hawaiian" hurhur and the dress i happened to buy the week before suited the occasion perfectly.. just that i had to shave those nasty legs. ack..


hehe.. pardon the fugly bedspread :P
there were silly little games and one of the first was "flower power" where we had to make "flowers" out of those evil smelling plastic glue balloon things in their little metal tubes. ack. hahah... but it was good fun :) now i is tireds and i dont wanna blog at all.. tata!!
