Karaoke Buddha

Yes, it is a funny sight, this Buddha wielding Karaoke Microphone.

But on second thought, don’t you agree that adventure only comes when you step out of your comfort zone and be outrageous, courageous and do something new, feel the adrenaline and go on an adventure?

Be brave.

Take the plunge.

Anything goes.

Art Installation - National Museum of Singapore

When I first saw this interesting installation at the National Museum, it reminded me of the quote:

If you wanna fly, you got to give up the shit that weighs you down.

-Toni Morrison

Unassuming & quiet
Gently you blend into the background
I want to give thanks
For the bit of sunshine you bring with your presence

Brothers Cider - Bitter Apple, Pear, Tutti Fruitti and my all time favourite, Toffee Apple

The next batch of bottles I have, I’ll take a leaf out of Etsy and recycle them into funky glasses for the house! They’ll make a fine addition to my kitchen!

Sanded edges makes it safe to use.

Recycled Glasses looks gorgeous

Well I’ve been relishing pouring through my Monocle for July/Aug and reading some tweets when these phrases pop out.

“We are a stoic bunch and the team is the gutsy epicentre of the company’s verve.”

“We are a hoop-jumping team of problem-solvers; We relish nothing more than a challenge. Despite that, you are unlikely to meet a more laconic or modest horde.”

“We will prevail because we are a fusion of resilience, competence, discipline and collective creativity in the face of challenge.”

Some food for thought, mindset to master.

Work-Life Balance

I could so get used to not putting in the extra (and sometimes unappreciated) hours at work and like today, have a quiet waffle dinner with N.

It used to be that ending the workday before sunset is of such rare occurrence, that occasions such as this felt like it deserved a special celebratory moment, followed by a speech  delivered with gusto on how glorious the day had been.

Indeed I’ve been so used to putting in never ending hours that I got to admit, this new found punctuality felt kinda awkward.

Revolution

Its never too late to claim back what is rightfully mine!

Prioritise. Prioritise. Prioritise.

Its like conversing with your heart and bits of your soul in each new entry, each new photograph. Feeling for what is written even though its miles away. The fragile, delicate words stirs emotions and leaves one nostalgic and pinning for more.

Its so awesome that my favourite entry has another lease of life as a gorgeous song.

AWOL Hearts by Dan Rodriguez

Friends + Desserts + Toffee Apple Cider + LAN Shop+ LEFT FOR DEAD 2

pew pew pew!

Faut souffrir pour être belle

(Beauty does not come without suffering)

This day is no different from any of the rest. In fact, I do believe its worse, with a handful of hours longer than the usual and yet all the day’s worth of fuckkery still unfazed me.

So it is true then.

There are two sides to everything – The Good/The Bad. The Ying/The Yang.

For every low, there’s a high, High, HIGH.

Bedroom

When you put two geeks together, inevitably you get a house full of online and vintage video game inspired things. From multi-colored doors, brick walls, to Darth Vadar doorbell tones with a Nintendo controller doorbell button to boot.

The house is my blank canvas.

Our house. Our design. Our style.

*clicked like*

Our whole life is an attempt to discover when our spontaneity is whimsical, sentimental irresponsibility and when it is a valid expression of our deepest desires and values.
