The Picture Frames We Call Memories

So I'm home early for a change,

since class ended early today.


Finally dug up the old family digital camera since I need to use it
for one of my classes,
Letterform and Calligraphy.

Wanted to focus more on the guy in the center.
Y'know, the one standing up? He's the lecturer for the class,
Gabriel. And he's Swiss, ladies.

This was supposed to be just a shot showing the class, but little miss Bee Lian thought I was taking a shot of her. "Perasan little shorty,"
would be Shaz's comment on it.

And speaking of Shaz...there he is.
He's one of the best in my class in terms of drawing.


And since he's like, the tallest guy in class,
and in contrast Bee's the shortest (okay lah, the cutest too, okay?),
he torments her on a daily basis to our class's amusement.
It's all good fun in the end though.
Unlike how *some* people do it...

Too bad I couldn't get a clear shot of what he was drawing
exactly.

In order:
GC, Sim Yang and Patrick.
Sim and Pat are also 2 of the several classmates I bow my head to
in terms of their Figure Studies drawing,
besides Shaz and a few others.

Melvin (blue t-shirt guy in the middle) having some fun
as the guys share a laugh or two about some jokes
we came up with.
There were too many for me to remember which joke exactly...




We then had to go out and find some pics of
things that resembled alphabets,
like how a lamp post would look like an 'I'.

I thought the lion of Sunway Pyramid looks like a 'r' from this angle.
Whaaaat~?
It kinda does!

Later on...

Bee wanted to try this new restaurant for lunch,
so we went along with
Shaz, GC, Mei Kuan and Ern Nee,
and later visited by Ken and Vincent.

After much hard efforts from me and GC to get a snapshot,
I managed to get one of Channiece with her other half, Boon Sin/Sotong.
Not a very good one, though, as I practically freaked-out when she saw me.

This is one of my experiments in trying to draw old men.
The results were rather okay for me,
since I got a few approving nods here and there for it.

"Why's the rum...always...gone?"
-Captain Jack Sparrow-

Credits go to Shaz for giving me the reference picture for this piece.
It's one of my best by far yet.


And I got a few praises and constructive feedback on this week's submission
and I appreciate them, although a certain party's comments were redundant, to say the least.



Just goes to show that the majority
will always overwhelm the individual
in several situations.

Location Location Location

Johnson Ting came out with today with a nice little hilarious bit of news.

He had this little IP tracker program for us to have fun with,
and the results were well....
funny.

See, he tossed in his IP address,
and his location result was: Miri.
And he's staying near Sunway currently...


The best part was Jing Ting's location.

The middle of a river.

Yes folks, that program told Johnson that Jing lives in the middle of a river,
though not knowing which one exactly.


There's 3 distinct possibilities.
Either she's a mermaid,
or she has an underwater house
or....
the software's screwed-up.


Now which one's the most probable...

Reclaimed Valor

Well, the weekeend's fair enough, so far.

I can liberally drive freely again.

Weeee~

*Ahem*, anyway....

It's kinda strange to do this,
but I've got a restaurant to review.


Dragon-i.

It's a Chinese restaurant found in Leisure Mall and Pavilion.

Well, I went there once again tonight, and
only now have I came to realize several things about it.


For one, the waiters there are quite well-versed in the menu.
Why?
Well, one of the waiters today could even estimate how long each individual
dish might take to be done, checking his watch & all that jazz.


Secondly, their billing system is quite well-organized,
to say the least.
I mean, they even show the bill's split-cost for each person,
also known as 'going Dutch'.

And there's this little highlight to it that.
As the another waitress tried to write something on our bill,
her pen popped open.

You heard me right.
The pen popped open as the spring backfired,
and I saw the components flying-off rather...systematically.

=D

Only in Dragon-i, people.



Maybe they'll pay me some form of royalties for this recommendation?
