Katy Perry - Unconditionally

So come just as you are to me 
Don't need apologies 
Know that you are all worthy 
I'll take your bad days with your good 
Walk through the storm 
I would I do it all because I love you 
I love you

Memories

Kim
Oil on canvas board

Went back to ADM on tuesday for painting class
while we were taking a break,
Kim came over and had a look at my painting
"well done!" he said,
and I acknowledged that with a smile
then he went on and asked me what major and year was I in,
and i said: "Animation Year 3"

"ah how time flies"

 yes indeed, it felt like yesterday when we had our first live drawing session
i could still remember how we were told by our foundation drawing teacher, Don Low,
not to chat amongst ourselves as that might appear rude for the model.
we were all so serious as we barely knew our classmates
but it didn't take long for us to know one another.
lessons were much more enjoyable back then
so much joy and laughter

With a blink of an eye
we are now year 3 students
it feels so surreal.
Sometimes when i enter the foundation room to wash my brushes
my heart sank as i remembered the times we spent in here
working till the wee hours of the morning
but we had the company of one another.
i really miss that feeling :'/

Let's Go!

feels awesome to see your own works on display ^^
thanks M.O.D.A!!

Ah yes...
been rather busy with the painting that was meant for M.O.D.A's first anniversary party
now that its finally over, time to get back on track with my other school work
which i've been neglecting all these while >_<
thankfully the painting I did could be used to submit for my painting class
so it won't be in vain!

having doubts whether or not animation is really my passion
but oh wells its not really the time to think about such stuff
so much work to do and catch up!!

Ugh and on top of all that would be my practical driving test as well as IPPT
both due in december..got to train up!!
one at a time yaokhuan, one at a time
you can do it!

Goodbye little one

hahaha isn't it sad to look like shit, literally

Was watering my plants one day 

when i noticed this bird-shit looking caterpillar appear on my lime plant,

I left it alone cause i was curious as to what kind of butterfly/moth it will become.

just two days later, it grew so much

and it even changed it's appearance!!

Kinda resemble the Pokemon 'Caterpie' doesn't it?

After which i went to google "Lime Butterfly" as it was on a lime plant hahaha

and to my surprise it is the caterpillar of the Lime Swallowtail!

I wanted to protect it from any predators thus i went to buy a mesh bag

snipped out the inner lining and stitched them together using wires

soon after, the caterpillar finished my entire plant 

hahahaha what a big appetite it has

safe and sheltered!

It then climbed to the top of the mesh and started to spin some sort of silk

which indicates its gonna become a Chrysalis!

i always had this idea that they spun silk around themselves hahaha

but that's what moths do, and its called a cocoon

oh oh and i read that during Metamorphosis

the caterpillar's body actually 'melts' down into imaginal cells

which then puts themselves together to form a completely new structure!

isn't that amazing? i always thought tiny wings sprout out from the caterpillar.

Anyway it is now in the Chrysalis stage

gonna have to wait for 2 weeks or so

before it emerges as a butterfly!

till then! :D

Real life Metapod!

Update: two weeks later...
it emerged into a gorgeous butterfly!!
so amazing :D
