I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

The Grinch has stolen bits of my tripod and probably also the remote for the camera. I guess it serves me right for inviting him over a tight scheming session to de-commercialize Christmas and dress up as Robin Hoods and steal Christmas back to the original owner, the birth of Christ. He must’ve grabbed them as he was storming out when I asked how much green foundation makeup is usually required to cover all his wrinkles & pores.

Happy Christmas Eve, all. xx

    I’m sure you get this a lot, but what camera do you usually use and lenses?

    also, what are you in school for?

    I use a Canon 550D with a Sigma 30mm f1.4 :)
    Hahah you ask that school question like as if I’m in jail! ‘What are you in jail for?’ I WAS in school for Graphic Design, graduated past summer!

    Dude, for some reason I can see an outline of a figure (magic rubbered) sitting on the stairs taking your (1st) picture, or am I going crazy?

    “de-commercialize Christmas” — Hell yeah!
    I’m proud to say that I’ve been really good this Christmas in terms of giving meaningful handmade/second-hand gifts rather than cheaply-made mall trash.
    Let’s hope this continues for everyday of the year.

    All the best and blessings to you and your family~

    That skirt is such a dream, I like how you paired it with a sort of rugged-looking plaid shirt. I’m sure the Grinch was also sorta pissed he couldn’t wear that skirt. I’m only assuming he likes pretty skirts.

    Merry-almost-there-Christmas! :)

    It’s about time we stole it back too. I miss my primary school days. The teacher would read the kid’s bible and we would sing songs :D

    Like, Alice, I’m also curious about what camera/lenses you use. Fantastic photos, as always. You have such a unique and creative eye.

    Perhaps your missing items will show back up under the tree tomorrow?

    Have a lovely Christmas!

    you certainly had good intentions to do that. nobody remembers that jesus was born on this day. all they care about is presents.
    love the idea of combinig something very boyish with a fragile skirt
