New (Co-op) Term
With April past, my second 4-month co-op term of 2018 has just begun. Some of the highlights of the past co-op term includes: completing my first ever marathon completing my ~150 brush-and-ink portraitures of critically endangered species finishing my 2-year term as fellowship committee cleaning up my studio and readying myself to get creative and […]
Art for Food?
Valentine’s Day. Was thinking about asking the girl I like out, but she said early this week she didn’t have the luxury to go to the annual CNY market this year, I’m just assuming she’s busy today as well? Or is she dating someone else? Actually, does she have a bf? How can I be […]
Easter Monday
Through a flyer I came across after strolling around a christian bookstore, I discovered and signed up for an art jamming session on this Creative Monday. I’ve been wanting to try out art jamming and learn to paint with acrylics for many years, but passed many opportunities due to timing and cost. Today’s art jamming session […]
Uncle’s Funeral
Was at my uncle’s funeral last night and this morning, it was my first time in a buddhist themed funeral and also my first time helping out in one. Helping out as a receptionist, I asked those who came to the funeral to sign their names and in return I handed them a “吉儀” – an […]
Keep Your Legs Moving…
The 10k streetathon last Sunday was a bit of a disappointment, poor planning and preparation of the organiser had many runners including me stop way too often for way too long along the way. Hot weather and street side air pollution were a couple of other disappointing aspects of the run. Perhaps due to adequate practice, […]
Meaning of Life?
My uncle’s (father’s younger brother) liver cancer has relapsed and my aunt was told to prepare for the worst. It’s time like this that makes me stop and question about the meaning of life. Just when I was starting to procrastinate about the many things still unfinished before the end of the year, my uncle’s news […]
Date?
I wasn’t lying when I told my old UW fellowship b/s last night that I have a “target” from my church. Indeed, it just so happened that I invited her to go see an art exhibition with me this afternoon. If dating is simply defined as going out with someone you like and get to […]
Starving for Art
I felt a sudden urge to do art recently. I think it all started on the Sunday morning when I arrived early at JCCAC before the craft fair. I arrived there after Sunday service, with a couple of idle hours before the start of fair, I slowly strolled around the quiet building. Passed by many […]
Friday Night without Fellowship
There’s no fellowship tonight, and with nothing else better to do, I stayed and worked in the studio. I have no life, I know. My friend and I was recently notified that our application for a handcraft fair on Sept.10-11 was accepted, it’ll be a great opportunity to finally reveal to the outside world some of my […]
Claude Monet Exhibition
Finally decided to see the Claude Monet exhibition this afternoon. It’s my first time seeing an exhibition of an impressionist artist, not to mention one of the pioneers of the field. I didn’t seem to be too impressed with the impressionist paintings, but I was really captivated by the life of the artist. According to […]
