Getting spooked out by a phone call at your office at 12 midnight, but only to realise your housemate called to check whether you were safe. :)

Singing and strumming to smelly cats at 2am in the morning after a long tired day.

pardon us for the 1.5 years hiatus. We've been sorting out our lives & to find new meaning of happiness. BUT, we're back in action!

"We've witnessed your human capacity for war. It would absolutely bring more harm than good." - Optimus Prime, Transformers 2


Skid & Mudflap - transformers

And so, after the movie, I was humming the tune from the Bumblebee fight scene. I thought it was a perfect on-the-go tune.

I stepped in toy stores after toy stores with my friend (I would have otherwise not done so). I just couldn't find a perfect one to get my hands on: not too expensive, not too plastic-ky, not too low on detail.

And so, I got back, with the instrumental soundtrack from the Transformers playing in the background, googled and found this! Please please please tell me if you find this version of Skid & Mudflap in any stores!! (Oh, I don't want the upgraded Skid & Mudflap. I still think it looks darn cool when the lao pok ice cream truck drives into the hangar next to all the other high tech vehicles and airplanes!)

Spontaneous road trips + music. RWOARR! Btw, did you know he's singing Mary Moon??

Clears the clouds on the gloomy days.
She's a Malaysian singer!

Exploring city like a nomad, that sweltering humidity drowned by the instant coolness of the coconut drink.

#34

Maybe I should just go be a model maker or set creator. At least it's more fun! Cherry blossoms made out of popcorn!

#33

The ukelele is possibly the happiest instrument. Yay for ukeleles! and friends! and buttercups ahahhahaha

Thanks mo for the clip! Haha, Dutch people eat loads of potatoes!

excerpted lyrics:
They're red, they're white, they're brown
They get that way underground
There can't be much to do
So now they have blue ones too
.
.
They have eyes but they do not have faces
I don't know if their feelings get hurt
By just hanging around in dark places
Where they only can stare at the dirt
.
.
PO ta to po ta to po ta to po
ta to po ta to po ta to po ta
to po ta to po ta to po ta to
po ta to po ta to po ta to

While we're all rushing through our work and nothing else seems to exist in the world, here's a little reminder to spread the love.



Shot on a budget of $57. Found here. By these folk.

Watching it warms the cockles of my clammy heart just so. :)

“What makes people the world over stand in line for Van Gogh is not that they will see beautiful pictures [but] that in an indefinable way they will come away feeling better human beings. And that is exactly what Van Gogh hoped for.” - John Russell


"Sunflowers" by Vincent van Gogh

I woke up this morning and it was bright and sunny I felt so happy. =)
It reminded me of how happy I was when I saw this masterpiece in London, and to van Gogh, this yellow themed painting represents hope and friendship.

Going Nuts


well technically watching other people (The Leningrad Cowboys) going nuts... also check out their other covers... I particularly like Goldfinger because Camp + Camp = Awessomme

I only wish I had the Red Army Choir to back me up every chorus... Also, the big hair and sequinned suits? PROSH. Totally Prosh. Charisma points = 13947823

time: precamp poster for hall, 2005

knowing that there is no alarm clock to wake you up is a bliss. no half an hour snoozes just so that you can wake up to continue rushing for submission, no 8am rings to tell you to get to work or class. =)

stone kicking

That indeniable urge to kick that little pebble that sits comfortably in the middle of the pathway, and then watch it follow a projectile motion to a landing (preferably in a straight axis), and then continue lifting it off the ground like a club.
Little joys as you walk down that road.

This is just too cool. Seeing it work makes me happy.

Some really cute advertisements from Malaysian TV, both aired in conjunction with Independence Day.
Note: the Malay phrases are translations along the way. But it ends off with "kids understand". :)
