catching up...

now that we have a new world-class shell, it's time to work on having world-class exhibits as well...
our grand old dame, the national history museum of singapore, was lited up in blue on its opening night 2 dec, there is an on-going preview special that lasts until wednesday night (which is today), so go catch it if you haven't
my dad was happy because i chose to celebrate his birthday on the museum's opening night last saturday (not deliberately on my part) and his actual birthday is the last day of the opening special. he's weird like that. imagine a 57 year old do that.b was quite shocked and amused to see him practically call out in pure delight and almost skipping his way to the museum. well, that's my eccentric dad

-- people were more interested in eating free food and chattering, than enjoying the museum
-- i caught my dad's shiny spot in many photos, unintentionallly

-- b and my dad discussing the infamous pontianak horror film of those days

i have been so crazy busy that i chose to ignore most unknown phone calls yesterday and today... so if you or you or you called, to ask about this or that, i'm genuinely sorry... i was so tired that i feel asleep while cutting out templates for a custom project for one of our retailers....

speaking of which, it's really old news... but i was commissioned to do a custom plush for a dear customer-friend, mandy.
original photo by me, she was too excited and wanted an immediate mms, edited photo above pirated from her blog. it's an icon which everyone in her design firm, where she works at, has. courtesy of her genuis creative director. who made such a gawd damn difficult icon to make into a plush. so many layers, i had to think of so many short-cuts to make it feasible and easier to sew. am glad you like it (or so you say.... hahahha) your droppy boobies, your little pet piggy-head, and having wings behind your head... all of which were not part of the original icon... but it was truly fun doing it, i'm sorry it couldn't be made any better or with better materials, as those were the only ones whose colors were closest to the icon... again.. kudos to your genius creative director...

i'm tired, which is why my post has zero exclamation marks.... i got into a minor accident today when i reversed into a customer's house gate, thinking that it was wide open..... luckily the dent is minor, luckily it was b's car and not my dad's, only because b is the most forgiving person i know on earth.... i think i've taken enough time off from replying a gazillion emails... back to worky.... 1.15am.... *yawnsss*
