Currently digging

Lord of the Fries hotdogs. These faux-meat doggies come on a crispy Vietnamese baguette style bun with pickles and very flavoursome tomato and mustard sauces. Om nom nom.
The meal deal is a bit pricey though, but I guess the chips are made from scratch/real potatoes and not frozen (or so they say).

I am working on an exhibition with the illustrious Julianne, whose work can be seen here: http://neveresque.deviantart.com

Stay tuned and peace out.

creating

I should exercise my creative energies more; did some doodles/sketches the other night. They were slightly inspired by a graphic novel called Koko be Good by Jen Wang, a fun yet introspective look at growing up vs. holding onto youth and looking after the needs of others vs. your own, it's pretty relevant to most of us in the quarter-life crisis :P. I really love the characters' expressions and poses especially that of the title character Koko, a kind of sponger/vagabond who decides to change and be 'good' while jumping, skipping and sliding everywhere and making faces.

Here's a panel:



Gotta love that perspective.

This winter looks to be nice, cosy, and relaxed, I hope yours is too.
Meanwhile, here's some music to go along with it:





I should really get Jimmy Eat World's older albums, and Third Eye Blind too.

so cute *_*



I've always loved this video, especially the colours. Went through a major red/black/white and still have a soft spot for red/black sometimes.

This is cute too:

mellow female songs

I just remembered some of these:





^ the video is a lil iffy for that one, but the song is mmmm.



Beautiful lyrics to this one, so true.

I should really make a mix of all these songs and some others, mmm nostalgia.

dresses and boots

I really need new dresses. Here's a lustworthy one:



It's by Baby the Stars Shine Bright, a Japanese Lolita brand. Can't remember the exact name of the dress though, but it's just MMM delicious. BTSSB is notoriously pricey though, so I'd probably have to settle for something else.

I also like these vintage army boots:



I like lace-up boots in general but those look so comfy, I think I prefer a flexible/comfy leather than a stiff kind of boot. I remember seeing ones like those in a shop called Izzue when I was in HK but they seemed to be display only, not for sale. They seem practical for creepin' around but also totally Rock n' Roll and kinda badass.

I've also been trying to find Oxford shoes in op shops. I saw some that seemed perfect but they were quickly snapped up >.<; the problem that comes with op shop shoes as well is that sometimes they aren't very clean, I've seen some that had what looked like gum mixed with food on the bottom (yuck!)

Placebo

They're a huge inspiration to lots of people. The lyrics are just so intense, immediate and evocative.

exuberance

I want to do all these things :D
