Very recently I joined a workshop about brush lettering, which taught me about the basic technique and some applications to enhance the work or medium to work on. We also learned about different pens and brushes. Looking back (way back..) I started to have interest with fonts (to extend almost like obsessed) when I started to my web developer path. But I wasn’t an art student. My brother was the one. Then I told my brother about my old new […]

To be worried 悩む
As the day to start work in new place is approaching, I can’t help to feel worried. About I can work as they expect me to, or not. About my colleague, if I will make good friends again or not. I had 21km marathon today so with my tired brain and body, I decided to take it that Don’t let Worry Steal Your Joy
Look at people around you
and you’ll make your world wider. That’s what my sensei told us during class. She added, so when you’re on train, don’t just look down and listen to music. Look around and listen to your surrounding. Another student asked, how can we widen our world wider by doing that inside train? XD Sometimes I’m surprised with what sensei told us in class. She often said it jokingly, but I feel somehow it always reminds me about something which happens to […]
A LIVE (Pt 2)
自分の価値気付かないのは、自分の認めないだけだろう If you fail to realize your value, isn’t it because you didn’t acknowledge it That’s what the main character told the other lead, after hearing that his justification why he behaved that way and did many things because he wants to be recognize by the people around him.
Are you ready?
I’m going to have my first run in 2017 and it is 21km. Yes.. half marathon. Usually I like to start slow (aka, shorter distance) but last year I received notification from 2XU about loyalty rates and their finisher tee in 2016 was nice, so, without further ado, I signed up for 21km. I haven’t been running more than 15km before the actual day, and has been traveling as well. Doomed. I thought. Plus, 2 days before the race, there […]
Can do? Cannot do?
A friend shared an article about another friend who managed to accomplish something awesome! Because I haven’t be able to do it. And there is a quote in the blog, “You’re never too old to set a new goal or dream a new dream” – CS Lewis I haven’t completed my full marathon yet, and I aim for one. But somehow I feel it’s a very high mountain to climb.
A LIVE
可能性がゼロでないなら、追求しなきゃ。 As long as the possibility is not zero, we should pursue it. Was said by a female doctor to the main lead. I’ll not say anymore to avoid any spoilers. If you have time, you should watch this Japanese drama A LIVE. It’s still airing, although it’s reaching out it’s climax.
Inspiration from Bittersweet (JP drama)
I watched にがくてあまい (Bittersweet) while flying back from Shanghai to Singapore. The main male character is a good cook while the female character is a typical office worker who care more about her work than anything else. They started with funny encounters and some fights, but they care about each other. One of the memorable lines was Sometimes you just need to let yourself simmer a little longer to bring out the best of you. Like a stew. If you […]
