Those big fat cheeks

I was at the grocery store the other day, and saw this adorable girl who looked just like a cartoon! Resisted the urge to go and pinch her cheeks!

'Je veux pas!'

Little doodle of some children book story idea I’ve been working on this weekend.

Automatic doors

I think I've become spoiled by our modern technology.

.Zzzz.

Weekend Doodle

I wish my window had a ledge so I can do exactly that on weekends!

Mark's Place

here are some sketches of my boyfriend's place

Winter Fat

This is my strategy for winter….plump up to stay warm, and then shed it all in the summer!

the 'bandeau' look

I really like that new winter look with the thick ‘bandeau’ and long hair. This time, it isn’t someone I saw on the streets of Toronto, just someone picked out of my imagination.

There are more fashion sketches on my sister’s blog though, with drawings from people she photographs. You can view them at ‘Toronto Street Fashion.blogspot.ca’, along with the awesome photos my sister takes with her film camera!

Jetlag snack

Travel diary sketch from my last trip to Shanghai, China.

I slept awfully the first night, woken up by the tiny little munching noises my folks made.

Apparently, when you’re jetlagged, the first symptom is that you get hungry in the middle of the night!

Odile

Here’s a little sketch of a girl, inspired from ‘Odile’, the character of Jean-Luc Godard 1964 movie “Band of Outsiders”.

I was watching it last night and found the black and white images absolutely beautiful, and terribly inspiring! 

…I found myself wondering, what the real colours of her clothes might have been.

~boredom........

What can you do when you’re bored?

….

absolutely nothing!

My Monthly Haircut

Got my haircut today!

I gotta say, my sister Lian is the most talented person I know. Give her any task, her hands will do magic!

Forever 20

...a conversation I overheard on my way to work, one morning.
It made me smile and at the same time, mourn my youth.

My Enlarging Head!

...leaving me perplexed and worried.

The Photobooth Experience

I don’t know about you, but there is nothing worse than a photobooth picture. No matter how natural you try to be, the end result is always a distorted attempt at being photogenic.

I had to get my visa picture done the other day…and this is what I got.

Milk

I am clumsy on a regular basis

…but I am far more clumsy on mornings

…and exponentially clumsy if it’s at work and I do not want to be there.

Huddled little girl

On the Road

Inside Out

at my age, I am still learning to learn to wear my shirts on the right side...

Multi tasking

I am terrible at multitasking, and can only focus on one thing at a time. 

I’m sorry Mark, about your banana!
