Liar No. 1 & Liar No. 2

I am an emotional being.

At an honest to goodness heart warming/touching scene in a movie, I cry easily.

To start off the week, my good friends and I watched Orz Boyz on a Monday night. It’s one of the films shown at the first ever Taiwan Film Festival. At first I thought it was going to be a light movie but lo and behold, I wept.

VAMOS ALONSO!

As far as I could remember, every Sunday in our house is Formula 1 Race Day. The TV shall be tuned in to the race, if not all day, at 7pm spot on. My Dad is a huge fan and he has greatly influenced my fandom. We are Red Blooded Ferrari Fans.

Take the Cake!

Have you seen Google’s landing page today?
Look! It’s a Google cake!

Apparently, it’s Google’s birthday today.
Happy 12th Birthday, Google!

I realize that there has always been cake in my life. Every birthday, no misses, there is cake! When I was 12 years old, the lady who took care of us (when my parents were away) baked me a chocolate cake and rainbow cupcakes. The cake topper was a Sailor Venus plastic action figure. I still remember the house smelling so sweet. I even helped spread the icing on and then licked it off the spatula. Oh how I miss home baked goodies!

Anyway, before I linger deep into my love for cake and anything sweet, look what the Google photo reminded me of:

This is an illustration I made for a contest at Design By Humans’ Facebook fan page. The goal was to make a word that is what it is. Does it look good enough to eat? Y/N? :O

Oh, I almost forgot, today is the birthday of one of my best friends in the whole wide world, Jarra! I miss her so much! I hope she gets some good rest and her favorite cake!

Champagne & cakes,

Daily Random: There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

My hair is so long already. Right now, I'm taking a 5 minute break from work. I've been editing 3 videos for 4 days now. Does  restlessness and stress look good on me? Y/N? Haha.

Have a productive Thursday!

Cine Europa 2010

There are so many good films on the list!
I am eyeing “El Abuelo" (The Grandfather), “Frygtelig Lykkelig" (Terribly Happy), “Mio Fratello E Figlio Unico" (My Brother is an Only Child) and “L’Heure Zero" (Toward Zero).
Last Friday, we watched Forbidden Fruit. More of my reaction & views of that on a later date. For the meanwhile, below is the schedule in hopes that you will find time to line up and watch the films! :)

Daily Random: What I Word Today

Clearly, this is not a scanned drawing and clearly I don't have green hair

Although I wish I had scanned it and had green hair, 

I cannot do anything about any of my wishes

I brought my things with me today in a backpack 

I didn't realize how much I miss carrying my stuff in it until today

I wish my backpack suited all the dresses I have

I certainly cannot wear it everyday although I wish I could 

I love apples but I love pears more

I had Italian sausage & mozarella for lunch

Although I wish had three cheese, I can't, I didn't

I wish my legs were as skinny

I wish I had brigher eyes

I wish my drawing was better

I wish for a lot of things

Wishin' & hopin' for better posts,

Mildly Mad Alices & Tea-Tainted Photos

It’s been raining so hard lately and it brings a sinister cold air
I long for one sunny afternoon to have tea with a friend or two
A tea party with tiny cakes and cookies, a party for all my mad friends!  

I recently rediscovered these photos that I took one perfect afternoon a few months ago. Aren’t they quaint?

You know you're in good company when there are pearls & straw hats around!

A sisterly secret to share!

A Daily Random: Dinos in the Cinema!

It is evident that I love dinosaurs from my previous posts. 

I have yet to decide if I love them more dead or alive.

Anyway, remember that post I had about the Silent Film Fest? I know I said that I have no pictures to show you on how the inside looked like...well, that is not exactly the case. With the not-so-high-reso spec of my phone, look at these:

☢Painting Aliens on Kids

I don’t know how exactly I endured painting Ben 10 characters on kids by myself on a supposed long weekend and got out of that party alive.

That's FOUR ARMS, HUMONGOUSAUR, DIAMOND HEAD, HEAT BLAST, UPGRADE & CANNON BOLT

Kid Commotion & The Wine Cellars

My friend and I watched two silent films over the weekend for free at the 4th International Silent Film Festival held at Shangri-La Plaza.

The films are over 75 years old! I don’t have non-blurry photos to show you how the inside of the cinema looked like but to paint a picture, in front of the movie screen is a live band that plays music as the movie shows. It is quite a scene to watch!
