Now that I have quite a lot of time in my hands (don't get me wrong, I still have a lot of house work to do - maid's no longer working with us, she's gone home for good :) ), I'll use some time to blog.
I've been snapping a good deal of pictures on my phone while going around town. Haha. Just some things that I thought should be kept (and showed) in my blog.
*slips on banana skin as somewhere in the crowd, I hear, "So much for your DSLR baby!!!"*
A coincidence, while shopping in MidValley, I bumped into familiar mascots, supposedly from the movie, Over The Hedge. :)
Another coincidence, I was walking around Sungei Wang when I happened to encounter... the Masked Rider. Not my idea of a wonderful experience tho XP
Yet another coincidental encounter, while I was eating (ALONE) at Nando's Chicken, Sungei Wang, when Miss Universe Malaysia and Miss Nelson something (some company) stepped in and joined some kind of buffet going on there.
Uh.. during election time, when posters are told not to 'mess up' the area, I guess we'll just have to make do with whatever else is around. I suppose the cat statues have a say in it too.
Our Japanese family crest, Kuno, Three-Petalled hana, proudly placed above the entrance of my uncle's newly built house (I took this photo during a housewarming event). My uncle is of the first generation.
My two classmates, while I was there to quench my thirst, requesting for another round of Chicken Rice at Point One Cafe. (I'm going to miss them a lot)
My sisters, my cousins, and myself watching TV in our little home back in KL.
The accident at a T-Junction (with traffic lights and all) which I couldn't really understand. The poor, poor car. Notice how the traffic light is totally unharmed.
The fitting session - trying out our outfits and making sure they fit before the fashion show. :)
I really love the VonJolly collection - unfortunately, I was not involved in their round of the fashion show :(
On the first day of the 'World Eco Fibre and Textile' (WEFT) forum, I volunteered as a photographer. Once the job was done, we were all hungry. I baked a tray of brownies to share earlier that day (at the back of our lecturer's ride).
My granny's cat, deciding to pose while I was chatting with my granny. Can you believe this pampered, spoon-fed feline?!
The beautiful sunset of Mukah.
One day, the owner of this restaurant is going to get sued. Have you watched One Tree Hill, starring Chad Micheal Murray, Sophia Bush... etc?
Some restaurant in KL (along the roads behind Bukit Bintang (Star Hill). I just wonder what they do during the 24th hour...
Look familiar? (POSTmag, BorneoPost, 27th May 2006)
Hmm... (POSTmag, BorneoPost, 10th June 2006)
I know there's another one, of me in a brown kebaya, but I can't seem to find the article TT____________TT
And now... pictures of the assignments
1. Intergrated Project (Combination of creative studies and design studies.
I chose 'food and packaging', in this case, of the traditional cookies made by the native Melanau here, Tebaloi. Of course, everything here is non-edible. :)
(a) The cover - shaped like the Melanau's Terendak, a hat used to shield themselves from harsh sunlight.
(b) Lift the cover and behold! Tebaloi, made to look like the young frond of the ferns. (Ferns are a delicacy here).
(c) Under the fronds, there is a book...
(d) In which every page, the silly little story unfolds, and there is a piece of tebaloi in each plastic page.
2. Design Studies
(a) My very own magazine, PRR. Just to show I know how to use them grid systems.
(b) Signage in a butterfly park - it was quite a mess, the board curled up the moment it dried after painting over it. I JUST CAN'T PAINT! Damn the thing. Caused me so much trouble! Emphasis on the signboards, not the so-called ground, k? XP
3. Photography
(a) Photomontage - cutting out six photos or more, putting them into one using Photoshop. MUST use text to promote whatever you are promoting with the picture. (This one costed me a lot of money).
(b) Fashion photography
(c) Product photography
LOL. That's about it, I think? Quite a lot, in my opinion. Been accumulating. XP
Do not even ask me to explain this... but it was a memorable outing :)
