Katamari Damacy Roll & Suck Game
Just one of my all-time favorites, award winning game design.
The game is way more funnier than this ad.
I just like the idea of rolling the balls over people and see them yell and being sucked to my ball(that doesn't sound so right LOL).

Polyvore • Black Posh
My first Polyvore set, though having the first few drafts in an "in progress" status, pending to draft them to perfection. Sometimes, having the tendency to do things perfectly itches me so much.

Smoked Bannana • First Peel
Smoked:
Brings out the essence of things.
Banana:
I like how it tastes like, and I’d like to think that it represents fun, health, joy, creativity, surprise, passion, endearment, kinKYness, wealth; sugar, spice and everything nice(pardon me, stolen ingredients from the PPG).
banana that is smoked should smells contemporary + sexy. I imagined.
So, my Einstein equation:
Smoked {essense} + Bannana {good rod} = Perfect
The extra "n" in banana is an aesthetic value in the sense of typography to me.
I wanted a space to share all the things I like, all the things that I think are beautiful and could bring joy & inspiration to any interests-alike people in the world(do I not sound like a savior? I once hoped to be a cheerleader). A place for me to show what I can do in my expertise may be.(that's why it's called "Window" shopping: shop via browser window)
I’m quite a private person at times. May be I’ve grown up more and have become more protective of my privacy. But at the same time, I wish to share things that I wish to show, I mean, I want to be seen and I don’t want to be seen. Get it? You get it. Thank you.
Additionally, I was excited and kind of troubled of how the blog design should be. The “perfectionism” part conquers me again. I think, sometimes, I lose the likely-precious experience in the process of being too perfect. Mess is art too sometimes(art is what you can always get away with~ Andy Warhol says!). But at times, I could be very spontaneous too without thinking much(eg: eating). How a person I am, sometimes I think I’m “overloaded” and sometimes I think I’m just “empty”.
There are a few sections in this blog, I wish to share every beautiful thing that I came across in the virtual world or thoughts that I want to let known.
Music is inherited in my gene and it stirs inspiration.(how cliché, since everyone says "Music Is My Life" since stone age) How do I know? Try this yourself: write something about yourself WITHOUT listening to music, and then write it again white listening to your favorite music. I find that music makes me more spontaneous and "courageous". hmm... everybody dreams about being a singer nowadays, but not everybody can sing. Even if everybody can sing, not everybody can sing well(nagging is a type of singing). Even if everybody can sing well(I doubt), not everybody have the 1 in the zillion opportunity to be heard by the most influential record labels/artist managements.
I'd like to think of myself as somebody who's not so heard yet. =D
Besides the big talk about music, I like capturing stuffs as well as be self-captured. I think photograph is one of the best memory storage methods. Memory itself sometimes is not that reliable. Co-incidentally, most of my relatives are into the photography tool industry. But I think it does not influence me in that way whatsoever.
Having experience in the photography industry does not make me a pro(yet), but it indeed opens up a lot of windows. Being able to meet beaauuutiful models and skillful photographers at work does not make my life more glamor in any sense. I get a lot of this "I like your job!!!". They gotta have *8 legs, *6 hands, *4 pairs of eyes, *a lot of lips, and may be *10 brains to do multiple things at one time in order to "like the job"(*numbers are not absolute). May be some like the job title better than the job description. To me, the more valuable one is the experience I get and the things I learn from it, not the title that might sometimes mislead people in thinking that I have such a glamorous job. Nothing is glamorous unless you make it one or you are one.(clears throat and scratches head)
I recently has watched Matrix(re-watched the complete series), inspires me in some way. Movies are strange, sometimes I just don’t get it for the first time, watching it the second time brings me so much closer. Seeing myself doing so many things using machines, I feel insecure. Some part of me secretly hopes that it's real, so that I could hope for someone who clips shades on the nose bridge to unplug me to the real red pill world.
I actually intended a short intro, guess I'll settle it with another "compressed" about-me post. This is just merely another spontaneouswriting typing. argh...
P/s: Though I think no one would care to read this, if you happen to spend your precious time on this so called “the magnificent" intro post, thank you very much and have a fruitful day! (you must have been very patient)

可以很獨立 也可以很依賴
可以很有規律 也可以很放縱
可以理性 但會不知覺的感性
可以很有條理 有時也會很笨拙
可以很隨和 也會很執著
小瑕疵是种完美的点缀
喜欢時尚，但决不盲崇
合适比例的才是最称心的
less is more是我永不退色的流行指標
黑與白是我的永不過時的流行色
認爲香蕉能最佳代言快樂、健康、有趣、好玩、時尚
鍾愛設計另類的手錶
尖头高跟鞋
苦苦的Tiramisu是幸福咖啡因
观察人性
傷城裏梁朝偉說的"酒好喝是因爲它難喝"(我其实不会喝酒)
直接爽朗；無奈，糖果粉刷的话语是交際場合美化關係的道具
也无奈以貌取人的闲话记者
擁有很執著的審美觀
重視生活上每一样能帶來小快樂的細節
覺得電影是某些人用來表達密語的傳達方式
如何操控对人的友善量度是门高深学问
内外兼具是我生活的指南针；
也使我遇到了内外兼具的信徒。
