Special thanks to Megan for lending me the camera and Eunice for sitting half a day drawing.

Enjoy!

Recommended to watch on vimeo for high quality.

Downside of Summer

Surprisingly the reason I haven't been creative much is because of the summer!

I have managed though to play piano, practice drums, learn french/italian/spainish/chinese (seriously not as good as it sounds, read books, visa application, mostly just watch movies endlessly and this.

As always I started my drawing with strange lines and develop it into something with meanings. I was blue when I drew this. Death while the rest of the world is sound asleep.

Right now I appreciate school so much. Speaking of which, I've been wondering why I need to stick to high school when I'm not even good at it - academically. I accomplished to get good grades for most subjects but it's not inspiring, not stimulating and not exciting. As I was scrolling through -University of Creative Arts happens to offer Pre-degree courses for 16+.

You can get into a National Diploma or Certificate course - which get you to focus on Arts in general while still do your A level.

Between Home: A documentary

Between Home (documentary trailer 2010) from nickj on Vimeo.

I've just got hold of some of Jack Rath previous work from Sally. He worked with kids and adults making fun and inspiring short film. My favourite was Olli. It's a gorgeous and meaningful film about a kid trying to get away from the everyday life where he is trapped emotionally.

Between Home is Jack newest project.

Congrats Jack.

It's really great!

Glad to hear that you're doing well.

Superfluous

Superfluous - I read this in a novel and Megan happened to remind me of it yesterday. It's exactly what I feel today. Superfluous of unnecessary crap that people are putting on me.

I've just canceled my entire trip. The trip I've been preparing and planning even got to packing. So pardon me if I say I'm tired.

It's actually is my fault for everything. Can't blame them so let's just pour it all on me and start unpacking.

SpOiLiNg MySeLf in ThE wOrLd of CaMeRaS

I love Cameras!!!

I seriously L.O.V.E them!!!

Anyone who have seen me with a Digital SLR know what I mean.

GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just found out about LOMOGRAPHY - a shop for those who are passionate about analogue film photography.

I'm going crazy here!

L'USINE is currently selling these AWESOME camera and I can't stop from wanting to spoil myself with one. Fisheye2/Pop9/ActionSampler?

I'm falling in *multiple* love!

Oh My - My world has suddenly become shiny and new!

BOX STOCK BOX STOCK

I have trouble letting go of things.

There I admit it!

Mum alway says that I have got to throw things away.

Well I did, and you see I stock new things in again.

Things I collected either have meanings or could be in good use in the future.

I feel the need of proof to what I did in the past.

I feel like having lots of memorable things around.

I feel happy finding meaning of life.

So may be I do have an issue of letting things go.

But can you blame me?

Because I can't just let them go.

p/s: Weird photos of me acting in Drama class!

I am a Kid

My cousin painted this for me with help from my little brother as well.

That's me big and happy in the middle. My brother and my cousin.

I am just another big kid!

Apple Ada

I am Apple.

I am emo and I like black.

Please tell me you can see the joke here because I'm rolling on the ground, laughing my head off on a photo of myself! I always laugh at myself but the point is this picture is surely hilarious.

I went to Shri - this restaurant on the rooftop of Centec Tower and I must say I've never seen anything quite like it. It's a beautiful setting, nice design and great view! The food was good too but being there was just mind blowing.

I went to the cinema twice and watched Knight and Day. It's such a delicious movie. It's so cute, so hilarious and so romantic! It's a must watch for 2010 I guess.

Meg and Aka is off to Spain. Sally is in Italy and my mum is also arriving at Milano next week. This two places are dreams for me. I know I said I love to travel and live around the world but Spain and Italy are just gorgeous places to be in. Please please I beg you send me postcards!!!
