WHAT’S THIS?!

It’s a ZINE and it comes with 2 free posters!!!

I did it for a school project. In this first issue, we talked about DESIGNERS.

What habits they have, what they carry in their bags, what fashion do they take to and what they see in normal objects. It’s the little things that many do not understand or find weird about us. 

The many interesting things you can find in a designer’s bag.

The Designer at work needs POWER BLAZER- Power dressing.

The vision we see by glancing at the object.

The Jersey street jacket for a casual stroll. Cheers!

I placed one in my mouth and I knew what “melts in your mouth” feels like. I would hope to visit that beautiful place again with friends or family.

I miss Paris, something that grasps my heart.

It’s a standard of the Trocadero area, an old-world tearoom with a reputation for pastries and macaroons. I remember an aunt taking me there for breakfast – toast for her, almond croissant for me – when I was a child. Carette has been there since the 1920s (um, not that I was a child back then!). And then it got a little old, and a little run-down… And then it closed for redecoration a couple years ago. Its Art Deco setting was kept intact, just … Read More

So it’s another normal day out with Jenny, Avelyn, Dixon, Nicholas, Wei Yang and I. We were in school to pass up our essays to Mark (our lecturer). After that was lunch, Dixon bought an i-phone 4 and also brought along his Blackbird Camera -Limited Edt Hot Pink! We were very attracted by the colour, Sweet!

Avelyn then terrorised Wei Yang’s i-phone and I did the same to Nicholas’s. Ha the next will be Dixon’s!!! After, we headed to iluma, where Dixon went to collect his Play Imaginative members’ card and Wei Yang purchased a To-Fu Gum Strawberry figure and we left for KTV at Marina! On the way I used Dixon’s Flash gadget and flashed a whole lot of flashes at Avelyn and Jenny!!! LOL!!!

KTV at Marina was ultra happening!!! We had so so much fun!!! Then Dinner and then Pool!!! Wow! I sort of learnt how to play a little Pool!!! Thanks Dixon, major help!!!

Epic moment 1. We were all stunt to see the white ball do a beautiful dive into one of the pool table holes by Wei Yang! SKILLFUL!!!

Epic moment 2. The white ball did a beautiful fly out and over the table dive by me. Oops, gave Jenny a fright!!!

Epic moment 3. RATED BEST!!! Jenny and Tai Yaki. Tai Yaki is a Japanese dessert with the exterior crusting in a form of a fish and the interior has a thin layer of red bean on the surface of the vanila.

Jenny took a first bite, started shivering with delight. And then the second bite, we could see her sort of melting away with the dessert. Third bite was the movement of her hands with the utensils that went in the windscreen wiper routine, left-right-left right, well synchronized! Wow Jenny just sort of seem so in paradise!!!

Then it started, her laughter began and it didn’t stop when we gave possibilities of what she would have been if we went clubbing, or if we bought a really big Tai Yaki for her birthday and how she would be eating it.

Reasons which might have cause this, the F1 pre races were ticking her off because of the noise we were hearing and she is probably very tired and Tai Yuki just made her more high!!!

I was so amazed to see that funny side of Jenny!!! It took a long while before she turn back to her usual self!!! Hahaha what a day!!!

Fun Fun and more Fun!!!

At the end of the day, Dixon gave me a little guy from the Play TO-FU Mini Vinyl
Series 2, the Halloween one!!! Thank you so much Dixon!!!

I am a Halloween Freak, Tim Burton made me this way, blame it on his brilliance!!!

Thank you guys, today was such a fun day with all you guys!!! XOXO!!!

P.S. By te way, Hilman is a really epic classmate too!!!

Who is BEARY?

Last Thursday after we collected our essay drafts from Mark, Avelyn, Dixon, Kemala, Nicholas, Wei Yang and I set out to Iluma to check out the toys at PLAY IMAGINATIVE where all the coolest designer toys are! My fav, tokidoki is there too bought a mouse pad at a discount!

We grabbed soe ice cream and decided to catch the Resident Evil movie.

While in the mean time, we headed for some fun at the arcade. And with $2 I caught BEARY. Actually I thought I will never catch him but I am so happy I did.

My little French Bear. XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD (Crazily non stop hugging of the lucky bear)

I love you BEARY!!!

Photography Class is really one of the classes I enjoy to my fullest. Handling a camera is tricky but I am starting to love it. I do not really know how to define a good picture but I do love the sight I take in front of me. I can only try to take it at the best I can.

Little India is one of my favourite photographic spots as it is so colourful. Every where you turn, colour comes rushing into your eyes. I am amazed!

We started out with a nice blue store selling antiques and wood craft! Then we walked on with Lawrence (our lecturer) passing a green door ,

into a yellow alley!

Leading to a retro looking tattoo store.

Next was a store sending home decorations.

Then to a printing store. (some how I love something about this shot, looks like a small exhibit area)

Opposite was a flower garland store, I love this store because of all the hanging flower adornments!

Then further down is a scene I felt I once saw in a Bollywood Movies ( the bikes man)

To a nice sunny open field with the first bicycles and many more to come!

A nice blue sky smiles above us all as we walk down the path.

More bicycles sighted!

A rainbow in the building soars above us.

We walk under them only to discover a rainbow of flowers.

Then again into an alley we walk on. An alley of colours.

Up above were the orange roofs.

Down below was a lavender wall.

Out of the maze we were, only to see yet another bicycle.

Walking a little further than before, we see pass a frame maker’s shop.

To arrive at the end of a rainbow.

Exhausted, we reached a market lane and ended our little journey.

It was a fun rainbow trip! Love it all.

Hey people, I just started school recently like ( 8 weeks ago)  and now then I’m writing about it? Sorry been busy with home work and projects! So far life is fun, I just made a whole class of friends and some from other classes. So how’s my class? Awesome!!!

Yup these are the mates from my class!!!

ps: Great to know you guys!!! Thanks for hanging out together!

1. The pink man with a bird on the head is a present from a dear friend, he gives me inspiration and cracks me up all the time. He’s funny and I love birds so a man with a bird on the head wearing hot pink is one real trendy down to earth man! It reminds me of the friend who gave it to me too. I am Weird but Heidi is Quirky, love her fashion, her guts, her photography and her husband is a really nice guy! (For Goodness Sake, she is a year older than me….marriage is so far in my case…ahh Wateva!)

2. Tiffany Blue Musicial Carousel, I love beautiful things and this treasure was brought back from Japan. Can never stop staring at it!!! Went to a musical box museum which sells really pretty musical boxes but I really love this one! Totally grabbed it and headed to the cashier counter plus service in Japan is always excellent.

3. White Paper package with Air Mail Envelopes, an envelope book I made which makes daily life easier when you have hell lots of loose papers. It is a Envelope book that can hold your receipts, shopping list, cash, your litter, loose sheets of notes and your little secrets, sweet wrapper and many more.

4. Cloud Nine (Happiness in Chinese Character), it’s my name card! I want people to receive it and smile. Really. Really no joke, smiling and being happy is sort of my motto but when I get down I kinda of feel guilty!

5. Embroidery Badges of Making peace, found these in Australia, a dude sold them dirt cheap there!!! Yeah Man no kidding, can never find all these pretty badges here at the price he was giving!

6. White angel box, I love angels and I always believe they are beside us giving us a helping hand from GOD!!! Angels are pure with really nice soft wings, not like I seen one before but I really believe they exist!

7. Bling Bling earring and Brooch, these glitter my gray/ black dressing a little but not too much. I love black not really gray but it kind-of-goes with my skin then I need to give it a lil’ something so it doesn’t look too dull. So Bling works wonders!

8. CD Rack, Feist is on the top, love her music and her CD Cover and her quirkiness. She’s Good but there is Those Dancing Days, Tegan and Sara, Yeah Yeah Yeahs (A Must), The Last Shadow Puppets, Attic Monkeys, The Temper Trap and She & Him. Check out (500) Days Of Summer, Love the movie and Music plus the “Why do you let me stay here” Music Video feat. Joseph Gordon Levitt and Zooey Deschanel. Song By She & Him.

9. Cloth cover book, I made it recently and I love the fabric Grandma left me. Love her taste! Grandma left mum lots of all fabric which still looks so good in this era. She used to sew clothes for my mum and her siblings. It’s sad I never got to meet her.

10. A birthday card from Mum and Dad by B. Kelly, I love the art. It takes me to places I imagine of. Every time I look at it, it takes me to the woods to have a tea party, run and roll around the meadows, lay flat and stare at the sky, listen to the birds sing , play with those cute furry bunnies and come back to reality after all that!

11. Pinion Mug, the first time I saw it on Urban ran out immediately to get it. It is unique and pretty. How pretty a cup with wings, although it is black it is still cool. It’s the angel thingy, their wings!

12. Wood Grain Cover Book, Made that too. I recently learnt Book Binding and I am head over Heels with it!!! I love this wood grain patterned paper, it looks so nice to me! Can’t help it my whole family is crazy about wood especially Pa & Ma.

13. Hanashi Flyer, a friend collected this for me. I love collecting post cards, flyers and usable material. They give me inspiration and keep me busy with ideas through out my every day. As for Hanashi, the colours of the flowers and Background looks so good together! Love it! Thank you Mel!

14. A3 Cutting Mat, without this, my day is not complete because this is a tool I use daily. It is useful and a must- have in my little life! Yes! It’s a MUST for all designers!

These are the things that make me smile brightly everyday!

Why? Because of the colors, the beauty, the uniqueness and the the feeling I receive upon seeing them!

Thanks to the people who created the things I found and Bought!!!

Thanks to the people who gave me these things too!

Thank GOD for giving me hands that love to craft!

Love em’all… …

Kang Dong Won is a famous korean model and actor. Born on 18 Jan 1981, that makes him 5 years older than me. I lately only got to know of him after watching The Taoist Wizard Woochi, he kept me stuck to the screen. Why? He looked so good in the clothes he was wearing in the movie. Firstly he is 186cm tall and has a really good body figure. After all the googling and research, he is also the fashionista of korean men.

I can’t really say what but he has this aura that I do not see in other korean actors and boy is his acting good. I have now watched 1% Chance (Drama Serial) which I rate okay, The Duelist that has very beautiful sword fighting scenes (LOVE!), Temptation of The Wolves which is quite nice too, Maundy Thursday that had me heartbroken at the end (Bittersweet and Sad), Too Beautiful to Lie which was quite funny, The Voice of A Murderer which I enjoyed his cold.ruthless.intelligent killer tone and then finally M which is a really intriguing and very interesting Mystery.

Recently, I managed to catch Secret Reunion ( Movie). It was great! A story about a friendship between an ex- south Korean Cop and a North Korean Militant. I think the story was great and I was touched at the end. Kang Dong Won  suave as ever accompanied by Song Kang Ho another leading actor.

What I have yet to watch is Magic (TV Drama) .

I have seen a lot of korean dramas and movies and I enjoy their silly, funny, cute and romantic movies but Kang Dong Won’s Movies are different. I love it, he is korea’s Johnny Depp like Matsuyama Kennichi is Japan’s. It’s kind of sad that Singapore has so little of his movies that I ended up ordering some from Yesasia.com.

What amazes me more is his contrasting personality. He is usually shy, very down to earth and polite in life after watching numerous interviews but on screen he changes into so many different livelier characters! It amazes me!

What amazes me is also his fashion. I love it and I think he looks like a beautiful beast with a very nice warm heart!

PS: Kang Dong Won Shi, Aja Fighting! BTW, check out Tord Boontje too since you are into lights and interiors.
