On a fine wednesday, my German director Lars decided to give both my manager and me a treat: authenthic German cruisine!
Boy was I excited as we took the long cab ride from the office to this quaint German restaurant (its name I can't recall at the moment), tucked at the corner of Millenia Walk.

This was a HUGEASS beacon that originated from the floor that we were dining, and trailed all the way to the sun roof.
The raising of the Maibaum (which refers to that huge striped pole) does not involve using a crane or any mechanical device but rather the strength of a team of men, this is in keeping with Bavarian German Culture.


A distinctly European furnishing of the dining area, with a snap of our waiter.


Me, of course, camwhoring in the Ladies during that one free moment. :P


The sunroof . Natural light was all that was needed to illuminate the area, cool eh?

This was just a small portion of the German wine making machine. The larger part of it was actually a floor below us. You could almost smell the faint aroma warf pass as you enter...

YES, it was that BIG all rite!!

I wished I could have snapped my dish as well, but I didn't think it would be thaaaat appropriate for a new staff to whip out her camera while her Director and Manager were happily tucking in. LOL. I had saur crepe, which was something like shredded turnips, topped with yummy beef sausages (which frankly was a lil disappointing cos it was kinda small. I kinda expected huge bratswurst-sized ones).

Hows that for a gastronomical treat?

In the same week, it was my closest buddy/collegue Jing's last day. It was bittersweet, but its good to know that she'll be studying hard and playing hard for better things to come. It was kinda hard to make her go as mad as me, but with alil nudging and coaxing, she was certainly having a good time as my partner-in-crime...

Below, the temporary insanity we unleashed on tht fateful friday :P

This is a water mist feature that looks like a semi deflated rubble of a volcano. I was told it was something to dowith the fengshui. LOL

I proclaim thee, Queen of the erm...thing!

Thirsty, Jing?

Tsk tsk. lazying on the job already?

Babe, it was great knowing you. Thanks for making my days more fun and taking away that bit of monotonity. Keep in touch love!

If you have known the irreplaceable Miss Sherry Ong as much as I do, you'd understand why this was a No-Miss (she'd prolly kill me) event on my social calendar. After 3 years of mugging and4 intensive months of obsessive-compulsive panicking...the big day had finally arrived.

I give you, the TP DESIGN SCHOOL DIPLOMA SHOW, featuring first and foremost of course, my bestest friend and her really funky and unforgettable fruits of labor.

Just like the creator herself, loud bold solid colors are the signature elements in Sherry's works...
PS: I like the one with the faery and the rainbow...hey babe can i have tht?

Her main assignment was a rebranding of our S.A.M, or better know as the Singapore Arts Museum.
It wasn't just posters and cards, the list was extensive; including book marks, phamplets and badges...etc.

Zee artist, Miss Sherry the Blueberry Ong, looking a lil tired but happy.


This panel belongs to Carmen, a good fren of ours. It carries a lighter whimsical touch. Hers was centralized on ballet and japanese masks, i think.

I nicked a bookmark. It was cute...

Miss Carmen and Sherry

What is with the monochrome dressing girls?!


This was by Sherry's good fren, Sarah, I think. I adored her work the best.
Grungy, delibrate ruggedness, coupled with a childlike touch. I loved that she made rainbows and torn pages go so well together, the contrast was blatant but gorgeous.

J'ADORED the bloody stationary!

A mixed-media piece. Its almost warhol-ish in its own way.

Dying to take one home, haha, but ah well....

A faux movie poster created by one of the Diploma students, almost just as good as pro eh?




Ok im getting lazy, will continue with the photo-orgy tomolo. luv ya bye./
