I better blog before Ms Nutella kicks me off her list. Lets talk about this bank holiday weekend I just had, it was fantastic with loads happening but the highlights would be bumping into Laduree the posh tai tai-sh French macaroon shop at Burlington Arcade. It’s true that they don’t only look pretty but wonderfully scrumptious! delish!

Well of course a box of doshy macaroons wouldn’t make the weekend so superb, it is the Cans festival that got me hopping about The cans festival is an amazing stencil street party initiated by Banksy, inviting artists from all over and the public to spray paint the wall in an abandoned tunnel. For once we are allowed to vandalize without getting impeached. I spent a good morning sketching, shading and cutting my own stencil before heading down to check out the tunnel.

The exhibition is remarkable. I was blown away by the amount of high quality stencil art inside the tunnel, the details are so mad they could kill an elephant, or ten. I was quietly embarrassed since my work was so shabbily done but I am glad nonetheless that I could be part of it. Here’s the guerilla artist at work!

Here are the true masterpieces:

You would agree with me, they are unbearably good and inspiring, and the crowd is amazing. I would never expect an underground suit like this could be so extravagant and glamorous. It is a bizarre feeling really. What’s missing is heavy aerosol smell, burning cars, angry hoodies, tattoos, piercing and rock music. What’s in place is cozy family affair, with dad holding stencil for the daughter to spray and mom giving feedback whether the position is good to go. Also there were awfully lots of baby prams and professional cameras. Albeit feeling weird and rather annoyed by the prancing crowd, I am glad that it all projects a really healthy impression to the public, and they get a reasonably good idea of how talented these graffiti artists truly are.

Well beside the cans, this weekend is blessed with pleasingly a lot of sun! Brilliant indeed! I can’t wait till the sun gets stronger and I would nap in the sun more often ☺

So yeah Hui Min has come and gone, and she's probably enjoying some cannabis in Amsterdam now. She didn't exactly come at the right time and she was quite on her own most of the time. The last night before she left, she came into the living room wanted to talk to me but i just left her sitting alone at the couch. When i saw her persisting but couldn't help falling asleep on the couch I actually felt really bad inside. Maybe i didn't show much, but her visit does warm my heart a lot as it has been a while since I can be with friend that truly belongs to me. Miss those brainless laughters and banters, for now.

I have never felt lonelier.

Maybe it’s the weather.
Maybe it’s the anticipation.
Maybe the sun sets too soon.
Maybe the dinner gets too cold.
Maybe the bed is too big.
Maybe the fireworks are too far.
Maybe the flowers are wilted.
Maybe the plane is not landed.
Maybe…

Maybe WOW will help for a while now
