Last Sunset of 2014
This might be the last sunset for the year. It has been pouring here in Singapore. Embrace the sun while it lasts!

I’m featured in Cleo. This month looks at women who left their jobs to follow their passion. Me? Travelling.
Hey there! I was away for close to a month (Jan 31st to Feb 26th). It was my first time to the continent, the country, the state, the city…well I’m pretty much a virgin in that part of the world. Where was I? California, baby! Except for three days in Vegas, Nevada. The trip was…
I’m chuffed to bits! My drawing is published in a colouring book, thank you Doodlers Anonymous! Two weeks in India means I don’t clear emails as often. Their email was buried among 900+ emails! This was sent in November 2013, then two more emails were sent, asking for some details (so sorry DA)! I only…
It might surprise you that the southernmost point of continental Asia is in Singapore. I have read a lot of debates online, saying that this claim is invalid, as Singapore is not linked to the continent, it is linked to Malaysia via a bridge. Hence, the southernmost point is in Malaysia. While I can’t deny…
As soon as we left the jetty, we were welcome with curious eyes and friendly rickshaw drivers offering their services, “Becak?” Unlike some other parts of Asia, the locals here don’t hassle you. A smile and a polite ‘no’ would suffice. How lovely! I was eager to see the island. I wanted to know what’s…
So the journey begins… Not knowing what to expect as no research was done, I came with no expectations. Of course I have an idea of the village life in Southeast Asia. As soon as we got out of Sekupang Ferry Terminal, we took a right turn and walked to the jetty, which is about…
Pretty rusty. I didn’t draw much this year. I tried… Every time I put my stuff on the table… I just can’t. I can’t even flip my sketchbook open. What a year. I need to get back on track.
I started this early this year (or possibly late last year) but couldn’t finish it as the marker dried up and I couldn’t find anything close to it. Oh well. This is messy.
What I love about Indonesia is their warung (cafe/restaurant). It’s not just about the delicious savoury food. It’s the cosy ambience, the friendly locals, the way the dishes are stacked nicely, waiting for us to pick and eat them.
The Island: My best friend Fahez gave me an opportunity to experience village life in Blakang Padang (Field Behind), also known as Pulau Penawar Rindu (Island of Remedy for Longing Hearts), a small island 15 minutes away from Batam by boat. This little island of Indonesia houses not more than 20,000 people, sits no malls, supermarkets,…
Little henna leaves. Pretty, aren’t they?
Oh yay! First picture of them together! Cotton Ball climbed and joined Mack Mack.
You find reasons, To feed your resistance. You find reasons, To secure acceptance. You skip happily, Leaving me on the fence. You breathe easily, Choking me in penance. Clarifying my questions, You left me in despair. Messing with my emotions, You really think that’s fair? I feel left astray, I should glide and stride. I…
Mack Mack doesn’t seem happy to see me. I don’t know why. Distracted by…something I guess.
