the cat and the moon

Tonight's moon is still as round as last night.

Meanwhile, Mori is pondering about the meaning of life.

red moon + neverending ocean

The best aim i wangled to shoot to catch the redness of the moon.

#north and south agenda

and the city shook

Nope, not because of him roughing it (photo: Mori playing with his flipflop, yes he claimed it already). But because of a 5.7 magnitude earthquake that shook Metro Manila and the nearby provinces. I was still working with my design deadlines when i noticed Patrick Star swaying sideways, i thought i was just imagining things until my seat shook. 

We're hoping that the quake won't have follow-up aftershocks. After what happened in Japan, people here are very sensitive to this kind of natural occurrence. With a lot of political rumbles going on in the Senate hearing the whole day and all the news circulating twenty four seven, too, we need the energetic positivity vibe like Patrick's big-mouthed grin. And Libya's Gaddafi? One word: insane. He needs some Patrick Star in his life, too. 


By the way, did you see the super moon? I didn't but i caught a stretch of clouds across the dark night sky. 

Even though i didn't see the moon phenomenon, i was shone by this stellar watcher at the fire exit a while ago. 

This kind of night sky makes me sleepily wander around my thoughts. The kind of feeling that the world will be a better place when you wake up. The stars are missing in this portion of the sky but they're all present in the opposite corner from where the light radiates. Sleepy sleepy atmosphere.. 

rockets, heights, and lights

This week, i'm very occupied with miniature rocket ship prototypes and a hoard of design assignments. I plan to do rockets for an upcoming event. You can just imagine how messy my table is now. And i vow to clean my working area before this week ends. I'm glad that my creative space in the office is situated near the window because i love staring at shape-shifting clouds when i'm stressed out. But today, i can't even raise the blinds due to random stuff piling up over the window isle, hahah. Must get things done.


Leaving you with this short video i made out of the ferris wheel shot i took during our last last month's stroll down south. I think this is the longest cold spell we've had since i can remember, brrr. Happy weekend! ~ Ciao :) 

shooting the moon

Such a very busy start of the month. Mi first and second days of October were spent attending lectures. The succeeding days were rolled up with some freelance stuff and preparations for the 14th of Oct show. And until this evening I spent a couple of hours at ccp to install works. I also had fun helping Froi with his space, discovering that i have a knack with oldschool/cursive graffitis (i'd like to do it in my apartment's wall, too!). Just come on the 14th and you'll see what i'm talking about ~ different techniques, representations, a lot of piezas to sight-see. :)

Meanwhile, i'm already on the third A.Ocampo book, while flipping pages of this curious hardcover, hahah. And i'm not even done with the Turner. This is my problem at times, i read several books all at the same phase. Anyway, i think i'm this attached to the Turner book even when done with it, it will never be shelved. 

I should slow down a bit this week (and next week). My sprained left shoulder is still pricking. So the next days, i'm making time for the pico sketches, watching some good films, and idling (while still on for studyplates). Catching up with zzzs, too. 

A view down the harbour square. Staring at the just-faded-sunset
and wondering if a yatch can bring me home by routing the bay
to the river going Boni. :P 

Oh, and this is how i'll fin the night with warm milk and shooting the moon.
