My officemate Kim and I started a ‘learn log’ on Tumblr to keep track of our progress in (re)learning Mandarin. We’re a bit desperate.
Pardon the blog title. I think I’m a bit obsessed with rhyming.

Such a disgrace (I think) for taking a bad photo of this important moment in my life! :P
This is Mr. James Jean, friends. I have no words for this man, but I can definitely say that he is one of the reasons why I’m never giving up on my ability to draw (the very little I have of it).
In this, you can see him drawing on the cover of a Muji notebook I recently purchased. I am converting it into a planner by manually writing/decoupaging dividers and numbers. This is one of my personal DIY (tactile, non-digital) projects for this year, to add me some boost of uhh creativity. It feels like a high school project but that can be the point of the whole thing. I need a breather from all the grown-up worries/To Dos I have for the year. #goodexcuses
I’d have no problem using the first week of January to define my direction for the year. It was all about creating, organizing, and new experiences. All full of (he)art!
2011 was the year of coffee for me. I started seriously drinking coffee (by seriously, I mean just like the grown-ups: no cream, no sugar, just plain black coffee) when a good friend gave me a can of it from Toast Box Singapore for brewing. It was then when I discovered for myself that there’s more to coffee than just its well-loved ice-blended form. I now love my basic coffee.
Because of that I decided to keep track of my coffee intake using Daytum, just for fun.
Here’s to being perpetually awake. :P
PS: I’m letting the occasional latte/cappucino slide. As long as it is hot, it’s counted as half a cup = 0.5. Hardeehar.
