Films by Tan Pin Pin. The couch was so comfortable, the room was dark, the aircon was cooling. Almost fell asleep.

This artist started collecting a variety of newspapers since he was in JC. Newspaper of different time, countries, language, content, colour etc. There's more behind that flap of wall.

A few years back there was a rainbow at the exact location outside my room too. Its just so beautiful and it always reminds me of God's promise found in Genesis.

give thanks




Hello everyone, I got back my results for last term and I must say I am happy with it though 1) its not fantastic, but I improved a lot based on my no-arts background standards and 2) I feel I don't really deserve such grade.

What I am surprised about is my essay and overall assessment because I really felt I lacked in something in my works. Anyway its over, I'm just really thankful for God's guidance, family and friends' encouragements and advice. All the sleepless nights, lack of hydration, lack of social life, tears, money, and effort is worth it. (I spent like $300 from Jan to mid Mar for school materials and printing o.o)

using light to see the world in black and white

Reflected images of the same shot in positive and negative


shots all over the school

final print

My photo prints from photography workshop I did in August last year. Made our own pinhole camera, use a SLR and the enlarger to capture our images by using just light. Then use the chemical to wash our photographs in the dark room and counting seconds manually when washing the photos because it was too dark to see the clock. It was an unforgettable experience and a really fun one.

baby you're a firework

Overrrrdued photos of chinese new year. Have been really busy and now that I'm done with assessment, I get a few days break before I start specialism, I'll blog slightly more. Oh and when I start specialism I won't be having a 5-days school week so that's great though the amount of workload will still be the same.

Took a break from work and went down to play with fire crackers.

Had my piano grade 8 exam just now. I don't think I did well. I totally made up my own tunes for the singing part and played quite a number of wrong notes. Well, dear examiner, I just ask for a pass so I don't have to go through all the pain of 2 years of lesson, all the money spent and taking the same exam again just for a grade 8. After the exam, I went to watch Rango with mom and sis.
