So, I’ve been trying all ways and means to look for an ideal job. I guess it all sums down to bad timing. I’m even willing to go all out and battle with the fresh grads. Oh cmon, even if they are willing to take peanuts from you, you will still hire someone with no experience? While all I’m asking is to match my current salary and extra advantage to you is that I have 3 years of experience! Okie, nevermind, whatever floats you boat alright?
However, somehow, somewhere out there, someone has been noticing my works. I’ve been called up by 2 different organizations, one of which is a company that runs external art courses where I will go to primary schools and conduct art programmes while the other is a nursery/kindergarten under the PCF management. Both want me to teach art!! Isn’t that what I’ve always wanted to do? Have fun at your job play with the kids, teach them e fundamentals of art & craft while getting paid! Great deal huh. They even offered to sponsor my degree course which I’ve always wanted to do, Art Therapy, which covers kids psychology. Can read their little minds help kids with special needs which is actually in demand now. And maybe can pursue my degree in Aussie?! Double happiness! Such a good deal right?
But the thing now is, I may take up both to see if I’m really suited to purse a career in teaching while I can still do my graphic as my sideline. I love graphics too much to give up. And yep, that’s my plan as of now. Half a year more, 20 teaching weeks and we shall see from there, hopefully Madhatters can win more pitches too and ready to hire me!! By then, it would be the best team to work with! woohoo!! Looking forward to everything that is going to happen for the rest of the year! (:
All I can say for now, its back to basics. The fundamentals of art (design), drawing (illustrating) and colouring/painting (rendering). And maybe even craft works (mock-ups)! See how these words are used at different levels? Oh how I love this artsy world.
take a few minutes to watch. its really adorable. i do hope they are playmates and not siblings for we do not want to see them growing up being incest. (;
I miss blogging about sightings, food and more because I’ve been really tied down with work. FINALLY, my first post of the year when people have already posted about bidding farewell to twenty 10 and welcoming twenty 11. Almost the end of the first month of twenty 11, everything has been pretty mundane (especially for work) since towards to end of last year. Countless projects and datelines.
However, the boyfriend and been planning our trip to OZ! And I must say, it’s my only motivation to strive on, earn more moolah so that shopping and sight-seeing in OZ would be of no hassle and worries. 3 more months to go! 2 weeks should be sufficient right? I hope.
Aside from all my excitement of traveling, the Lunar New Year is just days away! How much have you been preparing, spring cleaning, shopping for clothes and the goodies? Must be real fun being part of it. This year, somehow I feel excited to welcome the Year of the Rabbit. Firstly, I designed an angbao (: which I was proud of it (everything was airbrushed). Secondly, I’m actually getting the mood, maybe because of my working location, Chinatown. I bought my first maroon dress www.lovebonito.com they have the best range of dresses as always. Great price with awesome material. Definitely worth spending on (:
Will be having family reunion later, mommy’s cooking is my favourite. YUM!!
will post a better picture of my angbao after i retrieve the artwork form my com in office.
Teardrop and half-onion shapes, in off-white. Ivory and violet fluffy ball-like, scattered sporadically with tall greens among them seemed so soft and pure. Dropping in berry-like pulps of reddish-orange, adds a little happiness. Wrapped them all in gold and bind them tightly with pearl ribbon. Pure and simple yet so peaceful and close to the heart.
