Dreams & Reality: Masterpieces from the Musée d'Orsay

I'm a dreamer, a practical dreamer I would say. I appreciate art very much as they are my inspiration to keep up with what I'm doing. Going to art exhibitions is my joy, thus Dreams & Reality at National Museum of Singapore was an event that I would never miss.


I could stare at a painting for a long time, Lg sometimes asked what did I find interesting in them, I told him umpteenth times that I'm learning from the artist strokes, the compositions, the contrasts of light and shade or just being stunned by the artworks.

After I was satisfied with my studying, we proceeded to the next exhibition which is the William Farquhar's collection of Natural History Drawings.

This exhibition is a new addition to the permanent galleries at National Museum of Singapore.

Watercolor is my favorite medium and I love the details in these artworks!

Because the collection is huge, so they're going to rotate the paintings once in a while.

While I was fascinated with the collection, Lg just sat in a corner and waited for me patiently. His joy is watching me enjoying myself!!! :D


I was so happy as not many people were inside this gallery, I had all my peace and quiet time admiring these artworks!

Xbox Kinect games are the best!!!

I'm addicted to Kinect games, especially Dance Central!!! I was waiting for Dance Central 2 for so long and finally got it! I love all the songs inside Dance Central and their dance moves!

Here are some of my dance games, I forgot to include Michael Jackson the Experience game in this picture.

Here I am, jumping like an X shape, to show how I support Xbox!!! lol

I usually spend at least 3 hours on Dance Central games every Sunday, Lg always dance with me and he improves his moves really fast, sometimes he even get higher scores than me!

Anyway, I posted my very first video of Dance Central on Youtube. Lg suddenly captured a video for me instead of photos. I like it very much but you can only see my silhouette moving!!! Hahahah!!! I got 5 stars on hard level on my third attempt even though I messed up lots of moves, but I tried.

I HEART Desigual!!!

My new obsession for now is Desigual! I stumbled upon their store casually and went crazy with their new collection. I could see the thoughtfulness in every small detail of their clothes with great quality and beautifully complimenting my petite frame.

A side note about my dressing code, I like to dress as if I was in a winter country whenever it's raining in Singapore. Because it's quite cold in shopping malls here, which I like!

Back to my love for Desigual, I found a special area in their shop with Christian Lacroix collaborated designs. I have a tendency of buying T-shirts with pictures that look like paintings. I just love them!

One of my must-have pieces was this blue and fuchsia checkered blouse. I like to personalize my favorite clothes by adding more things to them. Actually most of my clothes are modified by me no matter how gorgeous they already looked originally. And this piece was no exception. I sewed beads, buttons and crystals to make it my absolutely loved piece!


I also bought these pieces from Desigual which I really like! The T-shirt complimented my figure nicely and it felt so soft and silky on my skin! The design on the shirt has so much details which represent the artwork on its own. The collar was lined with silk as well as decorative pads on the shoulders. The knitted sweater was just what I've been looking for, it matched well with any of my outfits and I love how vibrant it looked with such a striking tribal design.
