For the love of lego


Ascension
What will lift you up? Love? Faith? Success? And once you are raised up, where is it that you go?


So lego was pretty much one of the main childhood toys for me. And if anyone so much as suggests that lego is a toy for little boys my retort to him would be "I hope you step on a lego brick". Toys are gender-neutral imo. Why should our creativity be restricted just because of perceived gender norms? Bro and I shared our toys; he set up soft toy cafes and played barbie with me and I would pretend to be power rangers with him and compete at building the grander lego structure. So visiting a lego exhibition was a little nostalgic for me. Come to think of it, I should have worn the lego watch I bought in denmark to fit the theme... 
I'm still on my personal search for overall happiness.


For a while I couldn't figure out how to cast shadows, so I was standing really close to the wall and J was just taking pictures of me...but it seemed odd and after a few moments I realised I was supposed to stand further from the wall and closer to the light. Reminds me of how we used to adjust the OHP back in primary school. I guess that kinda reveals my age. I wonder if kids these days even know what an OHP is...

Me being silly

peaces; everlasting; step ladder; wall

Interactive exhibit: lego selcas!

 Coincidentally we were wearing matching red suede shoes that day.

prawn and honeydew, soon hock, salted egg yolk crab 
After the museum we headed to this zi char place at Toa Payoh that J recommended and proceeded to stuff our faces with good food. And I mean good, because we only ordered prawn and fish and crab (talk about 大鱼大肉), and because it was really yummy. But I was so stuffed after, that I think I didn't sleep till after 3am that night. First world problems.

On a random note, I discovered a new indie singer and I'm in love with her sound. I shall now proceed to play them on loop until I get sick of them and never want to hear them again.
