running away 02

after being tour guides for the evening, it was time to be tourists ourselves

 

while my japanese friend was off to the airport, my sis and i were off to tuas....off to KL

 

it is strange to be back here....entering KL, it all seemed familiar         

numerous trips to KL…walking on the streets on new year eve…night markets…filming…sitting under the twin towers…standing on the sky bridge…crazy taxi driver at bangsar…it all started to come back to me

 

infact we stayed in the same hotel as my studio stayed in during our year 01 field trip     

 this time round, the old places have changed …                                                          

chinatown has changed... my luo han guo drink is now served in a cup and is 20 sen more expensive

mid valley used to be so empty…it is so packed and different now

 

walking along the streets, i was wondering if i would bump into a familar face that i have seen in sheffield...

 

from top row:                                                                                            

overlooking chinatown | star hill gallery at BB [i love the new look]                          

dinner at chinatown [claypot chicken rice]                                         

us clubbing                                                                                            

us waiting for ramly burgers [very wong kar wai lighting if you ask me ] and yes that was the bottle of vodka we opened at the club

wondering
i am not calvin
nor am i imran

i am not janice
not am i jonathan

i am not zhenghao
nor am i janita

who i am is not important
what i am to you is

identity is an obession
impressions are the most important?

recalling 02

i forgot that i use to adore her, that i used to be obsessive of her, that she inspired me, motivated me, taught me....i had become indifferent...then i found her again...i should love him as much as i love her...afterall he is her creator...i hope to remember him again...somehow sin's words of me being more buddhist than christian comes to mind..

making | consuming | recalling 01

my grandfather gives me comfort...it is always comforting to take a trip to his grave and visit him....sometimes he appears in my dreams...and sometimes he appears in the mirror...but less often in the mirror nowadays

his grave was very pretty this time round...compared to the last time, this was fantastic...i think its brilliant

going to malaysia everyday

it has been a month since i have returned to singapore

it has also been a week since i have started working

everyday i have to go through malaysia to get to work....you see i have to cross the railway lines ....and that is property of malaysia... 

 the morning crowd on the trains are so stressful...no wonder people hate working...we should have school buses and play in them like when we were kids...

the art of eating
the crazy woman from taiwan who loves snow came to singapore!
the perfect way for me to catch up with spore was to be a tour guide and eat!

from left clockwise
little india [bumped in kk there]
po bia at jalan besar [very good..only S$1.2]
thieves market [bought a tv remote control...my old one smashed into pieces]
kaya toast + 3 min eggs [divine..we should open a stall in uk]
coffee bean taka [bumped into hanson from hk uni]

off to the airport where i bumped into Yuxun from vertical studio...singapore is indeed small...cos i really dont know that many people..

singapore is regrowing itself on me
