i Light Singapore 2019

The i Light Singapore 2019 is an annual event not to be missed and tonight will be the last one so please spare some time tonight to at least see some of the interesting outdoor exhibits. The sustainable light art festival has various installations and programmes lined up for both the local and foreign visitors. Besides being instagram-my, many are also interactive or inclusive of audience participation. There were some that were boxed up to lure people in especially knowing there are people who generally love to queue but not knowing what's ahead, haha..and there was one that was purposely designed as a polaroid frame with a walk in platform for people to take couple or group pics. But upon close up, the whole frame was actually made up of clips that are often used to hang pics. Interesting, right? Sustainable and yet looks complicated and even manages to draw in the audience.

One of the installations outside the Marina Bay area had the participants draw on the wall with lighted brush tool for wall painting. As they draw the strokes, they will light up and usually kids and couples were the eager ones. The couple one obviously for photo taking and the kids found it as a fun play thing. We were not interested to try but made some funny comments on the 'drawings' made, haha..but one of them drew something like a bubble tea? With two straw like thing come out from each side, implicating that perhaps, they share the same love for bubble tea. Oh yes, about the comment we made, coz one of the groups drew the initials of DLYM so we were figuring out what they meant and we had fun making it up such as Don't Love You Much..hahaha..

The highlights for me were the one on the water river, with water spouting to form an imagery of a boat, and the two soccer players, one goalie and one striker, similar to that of a green screen where actors wear special costumes marked with various lighted points on their bodies to mimic their movements. I also liked the helix bridge where it was specially installed with long light bulbs with lights flowing seamlessly like in those special FX movie where you feel as though you're going through some special tunnel.

Here are the pics for that night for some of the installations. Enjoy!

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
