I've been missing for some time eh?

It feels funny. I don't know why, but suddenly I lost interest in blogging. I think I'm largely lazy. Lazy to even log on to the Net.

So I've been up to many things for the time that I was missing from the Blogosphere.

The very first and most important thing: DID YOU SEE ME ON THE SUNDAY TIMES' LIFESTYLE SECTION???

Haha!... I know I'm pretty shameless. But anyways, the truth is out. I work at Eng Wah Suntec. I got Best Service. Cool.

But seriously, it was mostly luck. This type of review isn't accurate. It doesn't really reflect the whole picture.

LIKE I CARE!! I saw myself on the paper! That's it! And I got nominated for Best Service! I will continue to work hard.

I told you I loved my job...

Last week, I painted on a pair of slip-ons. Again. I'd like to stress that it's my hobby and it'll not fade into oblivion. Carelessly dished out in jet black and pale gold, my new creation is indeed a head-turner. It'll make any self-respecting fashionista go ga-ga. So all I'm saying is, it's nice.

Well, I didn't think it was that stunning until Hairianto said, "Damn, I wish these were mine," because he got that for a friend instead.

My creations are careless yet deliberate, tacky yet stunning. I like the rugged, unpolished look.

My mother will scream at me if I were to keep all the shoes to myself. So since I can't do it for myself, I do it for other people. It's a nice feeling to make people feel good about themselves when they dress nicely. And what way to dress nicely than to complete your outfit with a pair of shoes that explodes with vibrance and screams subtly for attention?

Sorry, but I don't have photos. BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE A DIGICAM!

Then on Saturday, the day I passed Hairianto the shoes, Hui Yi gave me a couple of pieces of clothes to work on. White short skirt and white tank top.

On Saturday itself, I finished with the skirt. Shamelessly studded on with my precious bling-bling, the skirt is one-of-a-kind. Though some would say, "Eeee, that one copy Levi's one..." Whatever.

There's a fabulous butterfly motif at the right side. It's so fabulous that for the first time, I believe I can draw things as they are in reality.

And you know the best thing? I'm not charging anything. Haha!... I'd like to say that I reserve this free-of-charge service to close friends only. Hell yes I'm gonna earn money from this. Just not so soon. I've much more to learn.

Last Tuesday, I went on a movie marathon of 3 movies. It's like an annual event since last year, because it's like the only time that everyone (means my colleagues) are free to go catch some movies. Duh, I had fun.

I still haven't found dirt cheap slip-on shoes. My friend told me there's a store in Bugis, but they moved to Chinatown. And to Chinatown I went. Then I realised that Chinatown isn't exactly small and organised. Chinatown is very general. So of course, I ended up with sore feet instead. From Outram station, I strangely found my journey ending at Tanjong Pagar station.

ZINC. I hate it. You know that brand that carries sling bags and all? It's everywhere. It's disgusting. Whenever I see mass-produced goods, it gives me the chills. I think mass-produced apparel are gross.

Like the new Samuel & Kevin Camou Bags collection. So ordinary, so boring, so mass-produced. I cannot stand boring things.

That's why I love my job so much. Let's feast our eyes on the photo again.
