Phew~ ok, my blogskin is somewhat fixed... just that the image can't be seen but i don't really care as long as it's neat and tidy and the blog contents don't mysteriously disappear.

Very tired today. In running order....
Went out for lunch.
Bought a new sofa which will come in Jan.
Bought groceries.
Drew at the playground.
Will be drawing another piece later tonight.

Oh! Uma and I are going to see Hoobastank's concert on New year's eve! Whoohoo! We were very lucky to get 2 tickets for the price of 1. So each had to pay only $31 instead of $60+! YAY!!

And 2 new female colleagues will be joining my company. A more experienced graphic designer and an admin. Both looked very young. I hope we can get along since i'll be working with the other designer often from now on.

I hope we'll have a company lunch. I like meals with the whole company.

S-S-S-S-S-S-STARRY SKY IS GETTING AN ANIME!!!!
WHOOHOOOO!!!!

I am TOTALLY %^&*@#@(*&^$@)*# EXCITED about this.
I just hope the animation studio does a FANTASTIC job on this or we otome gamers will go on strike and demo outside their office. xDD

Actually i should be EXTREMELY HAPPY WEEEHEHEHE HAHAHA abt it but....
I am lah but with small letters. Extremely happy.
Reason being SS will not be an exclusive thingy for otome gamers but it'll known worldwide becos of the anime and not the game and their drama cds.
It's like i don't feel special anymore, you know?

It's great that more ppl will become SS fangirls but it doesn't feel the same as sharing the fangirlism wih fellow gamers.

I dunno how to express this frustration well. lol

AND OMG THE WINTER THEME SONG IS OUT AND I CAN'T USE MY OFFICE COMPUTER SPEAKERS!!!!!!
I NEED TO HEAR IT NOW!!!!

Ever since i read an article about Host clubs in Japan in the newspaper last year i think, i've been researching on them for curiosity reasons.

And surely there must be ppl who youtubed their visit in such clubs and i found this documentary which is actually a 1hr+ independent movie made by a british director. It won several film festival awards too.

Sadly the net doesn't have the full video but you'll get the feel of it through this vid.
Warning: It consists of sexual content... so skip tt part if you want to. (I was actually shocked)
Other than that, nth harmful.



It's an eye-opener to what we know of host clubs (eg. ouran).

These people have serious issues man, if not, they are just plain insane.
Why chug down 10 bottle of alcohol and puke out blood every night for $50,000 a month? It's not worth it!
And those female customers... i have nothing to say about them. My face just went all =____=.
Many of them are female hosts themselves and are involved in nightlife jobs and prostitution. How ironic.

So anyway this is another video that is more 'happier and light hearted', the stuff we know about host clubs on the surface.
I've read blogs of ang mohs working in Japan visiting host clubs to see-see or have a drink with their company etc.



I think just go there once is enough to experience it. It's too expensive anyway. hahaha

Saw this fella's portfolio for his Sheridan admission.
http://jorib-illustration.blogspot.com/2008/04/sheridan-illustration-portfolio.html

He got in (with a score of 89/100, min. 66 pts to get in) and judging by his standard, i feel that i have a good chance from what i already have.

I'm going to Clarke Quay and Botanic Gardens to do some outdoor drawing for my portfolio.
Anyone game to join me?

My brother got his driver's license recently and he's driving us to the airport (a damn straight road) for practice and dinner. I love going to the airport!!!!

Pumped up!
よ-しゃああああ-!!!!!!!!
