Hey everyone!

Sorry for the deplorable lack of updates. Missing in Action To The MAX!

I’ve been unimaginably busy with school, reports, assignments, searching for an internship (unsuccessfully), serving in the students’ association etc…

And i think Jo is busy juggling school and work now. To the extent that I have not seen or  heard from her in several weeks. (!)

Thank you for sticking with us even when we are in the thick of things.

Updates are on the way.

Like a breath of fresh air after 250,000 years, by some divine intervention and by the alignment of celestial stars I had a free afternoon last Friday.

Might not seem like a big deal but when it feels like I haven’t had a free day since December,

it counts.

I met my sister and went to Vivocity to check out Aldo Accessories’ 2 for 1 sale.

We spent way too long in that tiny shop (which is quite hard to find btw!) And eventually walked out $130 poorer but with 2 bags, 2 necklaces, 1 headband, 2 earrings and 2 rings.

happy! (:

So, anyway… the 2 rings we walked away with were actually six in total (sold in bunches of three). And I thought they were so cute.

Yes. We. Can. (:

I have walked by it several times over the past month or so, I can’t really remember, and never really understood what it was about.

It seemed like any other run of the mill billboard advertisements that wasn’t anything fantastic and attention-grabbing nor was it anything tremendously bad to involuntarily trigger a gag reflex.

Then today, something about the billboard caught my eye. After standing at the junction of SOTA and Hotel Rendezvous, a name caught my attention and also rang a bell. However, familiar as it seemed, I couldn’t place my finger on where I had heard this name before.

So the day continued. Got a library book, treated myself to a caffeine fix (the day before had been beyond terrible and I was still angsty from the aftermath).

Anyway, after pondering intermittently between my daily dose of way too much work, I was able to connect some dots and place the name.

In a tribute to the fall of the Berlin wall, Zouk celebrated all things German, including a small Michael Michalsky showcase, which Jo and I attended (and I think never got round to writing a post for it, sorry!)

To make up for it, this is Michael Michalsky when inspired by Dalsey Hillblom Lynn:

And if you haven’t already guessed who Dalsey Hillblom Lynn is, its DHL the delivery company.

Kudos to the very funky use of material. I really love the bubblewrap dress (it’d be soooo entertaining to pop!), the parcel paper bustier with twine piping and the bubblewrap bracelet (which I would pay for).

Execution is impeccable (!) and not school-art-project standards, thank goodness.

Then again, maybe its the bright lights and post-production photoshoping that adds the flair.

The collaboration is part of a marketing collateral for 2010 calendar to promote Berlin Fashion Week 2010.

My initial intention was to lump all the Cambodia R&R photos together.

However, after going through the images, I felt that it would be better suited and more respectful  if this series from the genocidal centre and old sites central to Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge regime were featured separately.

Part III with the palace visit and exploration of Ang Khor coming soon.



[Travel] Belated Cambodia Part 1

Went on a short community service trip to Cambodia early December and never had the time to upload a very brief summary of the trip or to openly declare that I LOVE CAMBODIA and miss the kids I met there.

So. Since I want to share with you my experience AND sleep before the sky turns bright again, below are 30 photos summarizing my community service segment of the trip.

Enjoy! and Part II will be up… eventually.
