I present you...

Octavia.
isn't she pretty?

here's a closeup shot..don't mind the reflection of my camera flash!


this is the mirror I talked about in my previous post.
it reached me in less than a week!
thanks to the lovely seller - Ms AnneJulie - for her prompt delivery!

other than 'Octavia', there were another 2 more mirrors - one for each of my sisters. One has a blue octopus and the other has a silly one of a girl reading the papers on the toilet!

anyway, i'm a fan of her artwork..you can check them out at her etsy store or her website. Other than mirrors, she also sells copies of her art, as well as bookmarks and other stuff =)

5 things..

i'm really excited about..in random order -

1) A POSSIBLE WEEKEND GETAWAY (somewhat..for myself)
when the parents go to Hainan island for some ancestral business in April

2) INCUBUS
i attended their first ever gig here last Friday! OMG! i had a rather exciting time there..
despite having queued for hours, got slightly sunburnt,
got moshed pretty bad (i couldn't breathe very well..and i had an elbow & a shoulder on either side of my neck..), had to be rescued and watched the concert from the side of the stage, where the view is limited..
I ACTUALLY HAD a MEMORABLE time!
that is all thanks to this guy called Russ (?) who remembered us from the queue, saw us watching from the side and let us into the VIP area - in between the stage and the mosh pit!!
Can you imagine the joy?!
Yep i'm still really excited about the whole experience =P

3) NEW PURCHASE FROM ETSY.COM
i've never mentioned this before but ETSY is probably my favourite site
ever. its essentially a huge online store but what sets it apart from other stores is that everything there is handmade. you can find anything from soap to bags to jewelry..and even art!
i'm eagerly awaiting my latest purchase - a mirror with original artwork printed on the back - to reach me from Paris!

4) ICE CREAM
my latest food craving - rich, yummy, plain chocolate icecream..preferable from Häagen-Dazs =D
i haven't had any ice cream in months..MONTHS!

5) WE SING. WE DANCE. WE STEAL THINGS.
a friend of mine thought i had gone astray when he saw that as part of my MSN display name! silly..
but well its actually the title of an upcoming Jason Mraz album, scheduled to be released in May!
i love Mraz. Shame on you if you've never heard his music..here's a peek..

that's all folks!

oh wait..how many of you actually think our runaway terrorist is
"surviving on berries in the jungle.." ?
