Linebacker Limeade

I bought a surplus of limes and figured it would pair well with a bottle of tequila flavored beer that I’ve been dreading to finish. I topped off with a shot of shikuwasa lime concentrate, dash of raw sugar and  approximately 150ml of sparkling water for more fizz factor. This beer is so weak… Kind of reminds me […]

Typewriter

Saw this at one of the exhibits in MoMA I think… I’ve never used a typewriter before, although there was one at home. Probably fortunate to have skipped that portion of technology since I’m prone to typos. After all, the correction fluid is my best companion back in school. This typewriter looks like something more […]

Rosary

Rosary beads by my bedside. I’ve always found praying with the rosary rather “technical”.

Maple Leaves

I’m still trawling through the holiday photos. Yes… I’m working pretty slowly on it and I only check back on it once in a long while. Frankly I’ve not been shooting much these days. The last time I’ve been out shooting was in late September. Oh well… My photographic productivity is at an all time […]

Pensive Reflection

A sculpture by a high school student that was on exhibit at Albright-Knox Art Gallery. This sculpture caught my eye while I was walking through the upper floor of Albright-Knox. For some reason I did not bother to jot down the name of the sculpture and the artist. This particular work left me a deep […]

An artificial daisy. It looked really cute on the table.

Sweet and Sour Chicken

  A team effort with my friend H. I was craving sweet and sour pork but cooked the chicken instead. It tasted pretty alright. But I must say I really don’t like deep-frying.

Self-Portrait With A Straw Hat

This is Vincent’s van Gogh’s Self-portrait With A Straw Hat, otherwise known as The Potato Peeler (1887). He’s done a lot of self portraits, so this is just 1 of the 27 portraits he did. I’m not a fan of pointilism and really dreaded having to attempt pointilism during art class back in secondary school. […]

It’ll be great if it really contains sake. 🙂 P.S.: The daruma doll is missing an eye!

Mindfulness

I just realized the limitations of Singapore’s copyright laws. It sucks big time, especially for photographers like me. I’m bent on writing my own rules, drafting my own terms & conditions.

Fann Wong and Christopher Lee would have looked better in these than those Bally’s.

Jelly Display of Temptation

That display is just so… Tempting!!! When served frozen, the jellies become sherbet. They’re available in peach and persimmon flavors.

Usagi Mooncakes

Interesting twist to the Mid-Autumn festival… But really, are Singaporean Chinese going to purchase this over the more Chinese-oriented mooncakes?

Oribe Nishiki

My Gramps thought this was mooncake! It’s just a red bean pastry with chestnuts.

Wrapped

Part of my advertising module’s project was to do print ads on a Japanese product. I suggested Wagashi and my group headed down to Takashimaya to check out the Wagashi there. We ended up asking the staff to wrap the Wagashi we bought into a box with fancy kimono wrapping paper. Totally worth every penny […]

Molding Happiness

I came across this mold with the chinese characters (double happiness). I initially believed that this was a mold to make mooncakes, but it seemed that it could be a mold to make another traditional pastry. 双喜糕?

Char Kia

When I was a kid, my Gramps got me a pair of Char Kia (clogs) from Chinatown. Such fond memories…
