So…I’m writing a blog after 2 years. From now on, I’m gonna spend more time writing a proper blog entry rather than just quick-posting on social media. I’m feeling like I’ve been too lazy to try communicating with my words properly. Social media gives me a quick option to share more…yes, it is more, but less experience. And I finally realised, doing less is actually living more. Also I’m kind of fed up with “fake” me on social media. I tended to capture only the moment which looks nice. And those are the “wish-portrait” of me; the way I wanted […]

App review: “Feel On!”

This is my favourite Twitter Client recently…”Feel On!”. It’s a Japanese app but they say English version is coming soon. This client analyses tweets in timeline and attach illustration. Really well done actually. Of course it can’t be that accurate and attaches some strange ones which makes tweets so funny, or attaches some perfect ones which makes tweets even more better! I don’t use it as a main client as it doesn’t display that many tweets and it doesn’t show Facebook updates, but I like opening this app…Good emotional design I think. I made an album on FB so check […]

Perfume&Capsule

Perfume is so cute… Well, when they first became popular a few years ago, I just thought “Ahhhh again…just another typical Japanese girls group…” but finding them again recently, I was rather surprised how cute they are! Search their video on the internet! Their dance is cute too, I think they’re much better than AKB48…? My favourite is “Take me Take me”, “Game”, “Edge” etc. The first bit of “Fake it” is too cool. By the way, this combination of SciFi-ish “digital music” and cute girls wearing cute clothes looks so Japanese anime/comic culture…haha. Anyway, I will leave talking about […]

Happy New Year 2012

Happy New Year everyone! I didn’t update this blog that often last year, but…I want to write a bit more…I will try. So, the review of 2011. [It was…tough] Of course one of the big incident in 2011 was the earthquake, but even before that, I had experienced my cousin’s death. I can’t believe it’s been one year already…January last year was all about crying and feeling lonely….and then when I almost got recovered, the earthquake. It was quite heart-breaking time and the moment I could see both good/bad aspects of Japan, as well as the aspects I love and […]

onedotzero 2011 – wavelength

I can’t believe it’s been one year already…I went to see onedotzero this year too. It was the first time to see wavelength though. wavelength is a collection of music video. Motion graphics are really interesting as I can enjoy them as long as 1) I like both graphics and music or 2) Graphics is good and music is ok or 3) Music is good but graphics is ummm….which means I could enjoy almost whole 1.5hrs. So here are my favourites… This was my favourite music and graphics. Sad smiles but looks so cute! “Happy Camper – Born With A […]
