Bata Shoe Museum
First day of march break...ahhh...relaxing.
NOT.
I signed up to volunteer at the Bata Shoe Museum with Grace and Donna for the whole week, every single day 10-4. Except today was orientation, so I had to get there at 9:15. Being afraid of being late, Grace suggested that we meet at 8. So up I get at 7am...seven in the morning!! I don't get up that early even on school days *shiver* But one good thing came out of it:
I NEVER saw the sun rise. Unless you count that time I was on vacation in Vegas and had to wake up at 4...but that was years ago.
beautiful, no? *tear*
Anyways, here's some pictures of the museum (or one wall of it):
big big sign.
random display along the front
the title of the treasure hunt that's currently going on.
More adventures on friday!

sticking to it
winning look of episode 7 of season 2 of project runway Canada made by Jessica. The theme was to make gowns out of post it notes for brest cancer survivers.
POST IT NOTES.
I'm amazed.
I like sunny's design more, but can't find a picture of it @_@ The top was a corset covered with gold post-it notes and the bottom was a skirt with shredded blue post-it notes. It FLOWS like fabric. All the other contestants were stiff...well paper is stiff, can't really help it.
so so gorgeous.

Introducing another one of my weird obsessions:
alice in wonderland.
I totally blame eva for this. She introduced me this wickedly cool manga (project arms). It's characters's abilities are based off of Alice in Wonderland, such as Jabberwock, White Rabbit, Knight, and Queen of hearts. Then there's the book Looking Glass Wars (ahh, my english teacher's gonna scold me for not underlining a book's title...). In the book, Alice was actually the princess of hearts and her aunt wanted to take over her kingdom...
So after all these variations, I decided to get the actual book, with it's original illustrator too! Damn the art's amazing *u*
front and back cover
front and back inside cover drawings
humpty dumpty
jabberwock (even though technically it's from Through the Looking Glass)
caterpillar
mock turtle

steamed milk
I've been wanting to make an online portfolio since..forever.
Except I can't code. at all.
and that I usually don't finish what I start.
If I dig around enough, I can find thousands of photoshop mockups, here's the most recent (yesterday)
ignore the random image, I just grabbed a random wallpaper and cropped it. It's inspired by a incredibly lovely and simple wordpress theme. palette by colourlover, etc etc .
watch me forget about this in 2 days...

the end of the tunnel

LIGHT THE WAY (on dA)
(resizing not working, grr! click on dA link for better view)
one day...ONE DAY I will be this good.
