I suddenly remember what it was like to be in the Mercedes Museum in Stuttgart.
I learnt that the Mercedes got its name from the founder’s daughter, who died a premature death. They still raced horses in those days.
There was gorgeous, hippie-looking buses which I love, on display. I took pictures of them.
I also love [...]

At the Edge of the World

The photos over at Pretty Good, together with the text that accompanies them, always makes me feel a little bit happier.
So I thought I’ll do something like this with my own pictures
These were taken by Hanying. He told me that he has not been able to repeat such photographic success since we got [...]

Realised that I haven’t uploaded many photos onto my Facebook.
Trying to remedy that now.

Being absolutely objective, my dog is the cutest canine in the whole wide world
Although I admit its a close fight with Liyi’s Baby. Incidentally, she wrote about the sunscreen song that was always on radio (ah, even radio is a little retro now) circa 1999?
And that’s 10 years ago.

I just got back from [...]

[Photo from Monocle]
I’m treating myself to a copy of Monocle this month Usually I leech off Wanqing (who buys them religiously) since its way off my magazine budget. But this issue is their annual Most Liveable Cities issue! I love that.
This year, Zurich came in first, ousting Copenhagen (pictured), 2008’s winner, off the [...]
Film

I have to finish up my roll of film!
But its proving to be frustratingly difficult. Maybe doubling the number of shots I can take with one roll of film is not such a good idea after all – it never seems to run out!

The Girls and I went to Batam for a R.O.C (i.e. Relax One Corner) retreat over the weekend
We got ourselves a suite at the Holiday Inn. Officially, there’s just two of us staying in it; unofficially, we’re eight!
Surprisingly, the ferry ride was not as disastrous as some of the others I’d experienced. I [...]
Mao Mao & I

I totally forgot about this photo I took with the iconic Andy Warhol painting of Chairman Mao at the Louisiana Museum.
I don’t think we were supposed to take photos – the security guard was just out of eye-shot – but we’re pretty genius with sneaky photo-taking in museums.

I’d promised myself that in my next life, I’ll be a redhead
Recently, I’d been thinking of staying in a little cottage by the sea for a couple of months. I’d gone so far as to google ‘little cottage by the sea’.
You’ll be surprised by what comes up. There really are little cottages [...]

Hanying reminded me that we took another round of multi-shots at the Old Town Square in Prague
Yes, we were very, very bo liao.
And deliriously happy.
