I'm sort of in this in-between place right now. The last time I had full-time work was 5.5 months back. I quit to move to Australia to marry my Australian citizen boyfriend. The first 1.5 months here was spent on wedding preparations (we had a short engagement). Once we were officially wed and had a marriage certificate, we applied for my spouse visa.  With a temporary residency (yay), I now have full permission to work in Australia. The thing is, what should I do? I've been looking at job descriptions and it's really interesting because reading it, I get to see what resonates with me and what doesn't. At the same time, I try to keep myself open to new things. Part of the dilemma is that I'm planning to be back in Singapore for the whole of December, so starting a job now could pose problems for that. But that's not really the issue because anyway, I'll have to look to start a real full-time job when I get back to Australia in January 2014.  Apt...

"The ass. You are the ass. Stubborn and immovable. The mighty ass tirelessly bears the heavy burden of others. But when the ass is on the move, nothing can stop the ass. Be an ass for your marriage, be an ass for your children, be an ass for love." -Marcel in the movie Couples Retreat

"Oh bear!" said Christopher Robin. "How I do love you!" "So do I," said Pooh. “Promise me you'll never forget me because if I thought you would I'd never leave.” “If there ever comes a day when we can't be together keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever” “Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." -Christopher Robin to Pooh Christopher Robin looked long and hard at Pooh's face. "Are you learning me by heart?" asked Pooh. "No," he answered, "I know you by heart. You are inside my heart." A.A. Milne

Hello everywhere-in-the-world, could you please stay at about, say, 22-25 degrees always? But okay if that happened, then the world would be not-so-exciting. Cos everywhere would be the same, in terms of temperature and the experiences which come with it. Which are a lot; play, range from perspiration to freezing, fashion, conversations and so on. Hm. Okay never mind, just stay the way you are. -- I was reading something the other day about how things are not made perfect, but that they were already "perfect from the very first". And hm, yea maybe. Like how when God created everything, "it was good", but then somehow some bits of it turned bad :/ I actually wrote in my journal - we shift from perfection to imperfection -_-" maaan, how lame are we people man God -_-" haha. -- I want to share with you some Tom Gauld goodness today. I SERIOUSLY LIKE HIM! I mean like, it's spastic stuff. Like these, if you remember them - Okay maybe not. :( Okay go...

I would buy them and stick 'em on my walls. And when I wanted to read them, I would just take the books out of their covers. Just like how I've started to stick some CD covers on my wall. via design sponge , which I am reading when I should be studying. Okay okay in a while, in a while.

Found some goodness in Jessica Hische today. :)

For those who think typography is - huh? Typography? I also can! Open microsoft word, choose font, choose font size; I also can! Eh. I'm no master at typography, that's for sure. But please - don't take it that lightly. Really, typography is more than just fonts and their sizes. Here are some posters . And two from Mike Perry I guess this goes und er Typography too (: And the best type in motion I've seen is still this one. Pardon the language. But it really is the best I've seen so far. -- Second exam paper today. For a short moment while walking to the exam hall, I actually felt excited. Like, wuddd. haha. Yes somehow, I felt excited about going to take an exam. Just for a moment. Or maybe I was glad that after this paper, one down - just two more to go! Ah, whatever it is, seriously really thank God my first two papers went pretty well! This semester has been not-as-good as last sem, study-wise. Maybe because I had a lazy start so I sort of got a bit lost wi...
