23 Hours

[When London throws you rain, you run happy in the rain to get reflective pavements for fashion shoots.]

When lemons get thrown at you, you make lemonade. 23 hours and a new muse.

March In November

[A long trail of students protesting on a rainy night along the road outside my apartment. For a moment, I thought I was hearing drum rolls in my head, until I opened my windows and realised it was from them.]

I’m doing an add-on to my flight back to Singapore by swinging by HK too. It’s 14 days away but I already know what I’m eating when I touch down.

All That’s Within Me Feels Dry

[On the way from Marrakech to Essaouira, with deserts for moving landscapes whilst listening to my iPod in the car.]

Marrakech was a good break. Sometimes you just need something very different to jolt a shock into your system – your thoughts and your emotions. I am so thankful we have what we have in Singapore.

Listening to Desert Song while watching the landscapes of sand and more sand just roll by the passenger seat window brought a whole new depth to the song. It’s like the difference between looking at the horizon or focusing on the circumstances within a rocky boat in a storm.

今天下了一场很大的雨

［My umbrella waits for me whilst I take a dip in the pool and unwind in the steam room.]

Can’t believe in about 3 weeks I’m headed back to Singapore again. Looking forward to going to Marrakech on Monday.

Birthday To Birthday

Jon and I will be taking photos at the same time on the same day but in mostly different cities. Currently he’s in Melbourne and I’m in London but over this period of time we’ll both be traveling. It’s a collaboration that started on his birthday (yesterday) and will end on my birthday. Do check it out!
