Yay! i am mentioned in Culturepush. Thanks Nai da li for helping me to look through the answers :)

I really don’t know why am I so weak.
Why am I battling my conscience to accept ridiculous reason
Blinding myself to accept things beyond my principles
Tearing my heart to approve licentious acts

Am I just too naive?
Or simply stupid
The same old familiar feelings
Same old shit.

Dunno la,
Will be sitting on the fence for now.

Did outlines of my graduation fellow today, all in 4 hours. Madness.

Since it is not a secret anymore, okay la here are the dates for you busy people…make sure you reserve time for me hor. Arriving Mari Kita 14 Oct and prolly leaving for NegaraKu on 21 Oct. I am not sure where I will be staying yet, just chatted with Max and might just go bunk in with him.

It has been a while since I wrote something for my blog, and looking back at the date I started this blog, I can’t believe it has nearly been a year already. My course is ending in 2 weeks and few days ago while working on some graphics for my degree show, I was harked back to the ‘Fusion’ days. Haha. I really miss those days, at least people were easier and fun to work with. I miss the late nights and Ms Amy’s nagging, and Mike Oh, and how we were so united to fight with the product design people, and working with Yuki (hahaha). Now I am stranded with a lousy Lebanese girl and weird classmates that want nothing but an ordinary show. Totally no connection. Speaking about this, has anyone have any idea where Widi is?

Some of you have asked me many times before if I ever miss home. I always give a confident “not yet”, haha, I guess now I finally think I do. I am really looking forward to go home now. And this is the first time ever I actually have the idea of going back for good. Dunno la, I guess after all, my character might not suit to work here, and I am tired of not being able to speak in a natural way. And I hate the weather.

Yea so I really miss all of you and please can we fixed up dates for our mj, ktv, dvd marathon already? And I want midnight blading at ECP and Sunset bay chilling out also! Also can we celebrate YXXX bday in advanced? Haha.Let me plan la since I will be damn free when I got back.

Just now when I was shopping for food I saw this toddler frantically pulling a set of kids accessories from a rack slightly higher than her. She was so determined and when she finally got it off, she quickly ran to her mother in a distance and said “mummy mummy! These came off and fell into my hand… …can I have them?”

Kakis wanted! Dont watch yet!! Wait for me!! haha...

Visited Anthony Gormley’s blind light not long ago and besides the light and vapour, there was this invasion of numerous fiberglass and cast iron figures that spreads over a large area that explores the boundary of observable horizon. The installation was just so ambitious and impressive I cant stop thinking about it. Came across these photos today and thought it would be a good idea to steal it to decorate my blog. Hur hur..

A bad mood swing,
It's familiar feeling,
the sort that you're too afraid of failure,
or too plagued by self-doubt,
or just too damn lazy,
to ever really succeed at doing anything.

I get intensely frustrated by feelings,
not of inadequacy, but of mediocrity.

I want to lead an ordinary life,
but ordinary's just not good enough today

*Rolls eyes so hard they roll to the back of my head*

Xiaxue is one funny girl, haha

Didnt win anything big haha.. just commendation but thanks a lot guys for

is mind blowing enough. Thanks again! I will do better :D

Just Breath.



Just Believe.

Currently working on my next major project..

Dear all, i have started a blog to post my art, feel free to drop by :)

Finally summoned enough courage to bring up the conclusion. I guess I have to do it, or we will be struggling in uncertainty. I am sorry for everything. I am just that screwed up, forever rushing in to start something without taking care of what follows. Even though I know it will not work, we still take it on persistently. I hope this is the right thing to do. I am really not sure. I am sorry.

I guess I am having another crisis in life right now, feeling rather grey about the future.

Too much ambiguity, too much problems, too pessimistic.

I need a good dose of stimulant and great deal of distraction to get away from this drama mama disposition.

Heck, the world is crazy anyway.

Sorry rubbish.

For you, I hope you continue to pick up from here and live a better life from now on. I will miss the fond memories but I will not look back. Nobody is certain about the future but it’s the surprises in life that get us going. All the best, piggy.

For the rest, don’t ask.

Support please!! It is only $28 and the multimedia is done by our legendary senior! haha...and Nora Samosir is really good! Go watch and tell me about it k? ;)

Nothing is an exploration of urban alienation. Written and directed by Natalie Hennedige, and performed by Goh Guat Kian, Nora Samosir, Rizman Putra, Peter Sau & Siti Khalijah, the talented cast will play multiple characters, some entirely identifiable, some obscure, some mundane, some elusive to create a poignant, meditative and funny tapestry of the human condition in the midst of urban frantic and noise. It will employ electronic music and noise and a stark stylish set as well original and found text.

See the laundry in the machine. It goes round and round.
See your reflection in the glass you are a great sad clown.
Hello Mister. Hello Miss. Where are you off to now?
May I join you on your way into the great abyss?
I won't say a single word or get in your way
I'll just be a companion. Grey.
It will be a grand nothing day.
Say yes. Say.

The last post of my easter trip! The breathtaking journey continued as we embarked from Engelberg to Interlaken, a moderate town surrounded by two lakes and right under the peak of the Alpes. Interlaken is really peaceful and there is this silence charm about the place that make people keep thinking about it and wanting to go back. Hmm.. maybe only me. Anyway there are heaps to do there beside skiing and snowboarding, lots of extreme sports and mountain adventures, and it would be fun if we go there in a group. So hint hint to everyone out there, please start saving money.

And so we are constantly pampered by sceneries like these while we were on the train from one town to another. If only Malaysia is like that lor.


After a night in Interlaken, we were all excited in the early morning, ready to go up to the tallest mountain in the whole of Europe. (Still a little shorter than the tallest mountain in South East Asia, which is Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia, standing at 4,095 meters high, children). The journey upward was more or less the same except this time there wasnt any cable car ride but just train ride straight to the top (with many stops and exchanges of trains).


And after about 3 hours (?) of train rides we finally got to the top. Ladies & Gentlemen, may I present to you the top of Europe, Jungfraubahn! Standing at 3,457 meters above sea level with a magnificient glacier across the band of mountains.



We went to the Sphinx to get a good view at Jungfraujoch, the peak of the mountain and grabbed some photos before we ventured to a walk on the glacier. I couldnt possibly take a picture of the Sphinx cause i was inside it so i stole a picture from the internet to show you how crazily beautiful it is.


After coming out from the Sphinx, we were greeted by the great wonder of nature. Never in my life i have been in somewhere so white before, it was so glaring i dont think anyone can survive without sunglasses. We saw a sign telling us the outbound journey into the glacier will take 45 minutes and it should bring us to a restaurant. So both of us very gung ho la, walked out without much thoughts. We started by taking pictures (again!) everywhere, above the ground, under the slope, on the ground, inside a hole, with the skiiers, with ourselves and then started the walk slowly on the endless white path.

Man we were conned! The journey was definitely more than 45 mins and there were a few steep slopes along the way, we were dead tired and hungry by the time we arrived at the restaurant but the experience was really fulfilling. I have just walked on a glacier and played with compact snow! woo hoo!


After the glacier walk, we went to the Plateau to have a good view from the top. Again everything is white white. No wonder they called it 'between heaven and earth', it does look like a place for immortal beings.

So there you go, I am at the top of Europe!!

Have to thank Angela for the nice shots. So yeah, after the Plateau we proceeded to the Eispalast (ice palace) which are tunnels dug into the Jungfrau mount. It is a shame that during this period of time, many activies were suspended until winter comes again. I am particularly interested in this husky ride! Argh!

So all good things come to an end, we have to descend the mountain and the journey downwards is nothing less extraordinary.

Before going back to Interlaken, we had a brief stop over at Grindelwald, a beautiful beautiful town at the foot of the mountain.

We wanted to get to Grindelwald First (thats a part of Grindelwald) but didnt have enough time. Here is a stolen picture again to show you how crazy it would have been.

So yeah, Grindelwald, remember this place! Must go!

The last day in Switzerland was spent on train ride from Interlaken to Geneva, where we were supposed to meet my bro-in-law. I didnt take much photos in the end cause i realised i have been spending way too much time looking at the place through the viewfinder. I needed the final chance to look at them properly. Some pictures to show though, bear in mind i shot all these on a moving train (at 200+kmph) , without a tripod and behind dirty glass panels. The real scene is way much better than the pictures.


Final stop, Geneva. It is a modern town with (another) lake and backed by Mont Blanc. So yeah, this trip I finally saw the real mountains on the toberone, ricola and mont blanc packaging. Yayness.



Summer is quietly creeping by many people were suntanning by the Geneva lake. We spotted a swan that has just gave birth to an egg. Picture shows Ms Swan looking at the Swan.



So yah thats the end of my dreamy holiday. Contented and happy with a chao ta face. Hehe. Thanks for reading ;)
