Salt Winter

I really hate to admit the fact I've been such an emotional sloth the last couple of days. I couldn't quite help it but I think enough is enough. I'm not gonna wait for another person to pick me up from the back of my shirt and hang me up the wall. It's terrible... can't--breatheeee.

I'm really grateful for the all people in my life, and my bunny who has been bringing me the widest smiles as of late. How can you not smile at this:



:'D

It has been dreadfully emotional and grossly terrifying to be all in the face with the honesty of my thoughts and feelings. Some crazy crazy things up in my brain right there friend. BUT, some of the best and most honest works have come out of it too, so I wouldn't trade the experience for anything else either. I might share them one day I might not, but I discovered that I might be more capable of more things than I actually know. Of course, I cannot give any credit whatsoever to my pathetic little life, because really, who am I without Jesus?

So, enough tears and fever and fainting and hiding under my blankie named Chouchou

It's Adventure Time guys.

Indie Bo

Hello world,

I received a new baby as present this christmas!!!!!!!!!!! And, I named it Indie Bo (after the legendary JD who named his daughter Indie Bo. Yes, whatever-- copy cat, kiss the rat, go home eat your mother's yummy chicken broth :'D-- well, that's what I did)

And here she is:

so beautiful I know :'D

It's been a teary time for me... plus, I fainted from cramps yesterday afternoon (:/) so, I brought Indie Bo out today and it was T H E R A P E U T I C I tell you. 

There's this sense of accomplishment every time I snap something with it, as if clouds of comfort and confidence just floats above my head all of a sudden heh. I started journaling and realised---- it's pretty cool that I had to peel off the negative strip from the film to see the picture and really, it was like a literal practice (or you could call it.. a lesson) for me--- I was peeling off the "negatives" each time before I could see how the film turned out and it was ridiculously comforting.

Some of these films turned out great, and some others--  well not so great. Either way, it was magical every single time. Here are some of the turn outs thus far :)






There. 

Have a great day everyone, and if you're feeling jaded, go out and do something that matters to you!


Love, sam

ILLUMI PARTY RUN

Hi folks,

Jean and I went for the Illumi Run 2013 last saturday and omagah it was cray craaaay ~
It was so much fun and 5km never felt so easy (shut up if 5k is a breeze to you and if you're smirking behind your screen now. Stop it. Like no, really. Stop it ah.)

I think it's a really awesome thing for

1. lazy people who can't stand running (like me)
 'cause honestly the hype does make everything better :')
ps: crazy price to pay for some sweat if you're cynical as pickles but HEY if you had traumatic times during napfa in the past, this is a great way to re write memories #wipestear

2. anyone who has ever wished to be under rainbow coloured rain (me again)
so, the after party was a sea of chaotic, excited evening athletes and we were clearly the shorter lot of the mass but heck it. IT WAS RAINING RAINBOW GLOW PAINT FOR GLOW'S SAKE!!!!
It was beautiful #brbweeping

3. anyone else who wants to show off their running and dodging skeelz
okay get this, we left the venue and there were other crazy people
- still running
- with pathetic amounts of paint on their shirts (hardly any paint la)
- no really, like running like they don't care
I mean sure, pay 60 bucks and continue being uptight :'D

Okay sorry, I don't mean to be all sarcastic salmon. Maybe I'm just jealous that I don't have as much enthusiasm. Ah well. POINT IS, I got to be covered in rainbow glow paint with my best friend, I'm the happiest bunny :'3

#excites #feelinlikeanathelete #iwasanathelete #justsaying #usedtobeincrosscountry #dontknowwhathappened #toomanyhashtags 

okay here's when we were the next wave to be released (10,000 cool people showed up that night!)

After run!!!! (sorry J I think too many mouth open shots so i cut the heads off :')


:') (see what I mean)

Okay this was a lot more magical LIVE.

Had to tiptoe to get this shot #shh

Happy rainbow bunny :'3 (ok so I like to open my mouth in pictures, deal with it.)

Oh and of course, complete contrast to my day self:


(finally mouth closed)

Well, it was definitely a run to freaking remember. I hope they do this every year!!!!! 

ps: it was not difficult to wash off the paint -- at all -- if you were wondering :')

#happysigh 

Goodnight folks!

Fuji x100s

Hi guys,

Lenne has been an excellent influencer and hence, I'm now faced with the dilemma of choosing between a canon 700D / 70D / and the now and ever so pretty -- FUJI X100S

Come, let's take a look at how pretty it is and how it produces pretty as well #wipestear



SO pretty I can crai. 

And these now:



Okay one more:


How not to love?
I was totally bought over by this eye candy. 

The only thing is that the last I checked, it was going at SGD 1.5k *inserts ugly crying* 
And it only seemed more than logical to get a 70D instead--- which I btw chanced upon a shop selling it for SGD 1.2k (!!!!!!)

So tell me, how?

On another note, I spent the last two days helping Lenne design the typography for her postcards she's going to be selling at the coming up Underground Market!! (click to check out details!) 



It sounds totally fab and I think Jean and I are totally gonna be therez too ~ (8th dec!) If you go, please check out the postcards! They have been made with loads of love and efforts :'3  -teehee-

We also did a photoshoot recently for a project and here are some pretty for you:

* insert feels shots:




But no really, there were so many dragonflies and this was how I was in all honesty:

Don't judge me. 

Now back to work. Bye humans :')
