Gauguin will be in Tate Modern. On the last day of my London Witch Hunt trip, it definitely my quarry. It couldn t be more exciting to see Gauguin in London, or be even exciting to have had something to expect already of the return right on the beginning of the new journey.
Greece, suppose to be in the second part of of my Travel-Trilogy - 2011 (Naples - Greece - Istanbul). But since Nicole brought it up, it seems no reason not to go with her this year, so I decide to let it happen ahead of time.
Since the flight from Gatewick is at 625 in the morning, instead of heading off in the cold-chilly-no tube service London, or asking Mark wake up early to drive me to the airport, I'd rather to take the train from London Bridge in the mid-night, by the time the tube is still working, so I can easily take on the train then waiting in the airport three hours ahead of the check-in, reading my book.
From the exhibition - EXPOSED: Voyeurism, Surveillance and the Camera in the Tate Modern. There are so many unhappy faces, which also represent unhappy lives, lost souls. Some of those which are lives I couldn t even imagine if any of them happened in mine. I am not the only one mentally suffered. I am not alone. And, I should be grateful.
After having my favorite Cheddar with Miso soup in Pret (a monger), heading to V&A where I can spend time a whole day, exploring my favorite craft, favorite material - ceramic. How many "favorite" I've used? All happened in one day.
Headthinker III, Lauea Ford 2003.
Glazed stoneware steel, plaster and clothing.
"Human-animal hybirds are frequetly the subject of Laura Ford's scupltures. Here, the heaviness of the ceramic donkey-head contrasts with the apparent softness of the body, appearing to weigh it down. The sleeping donkey-child appears as something encountered in a dream, yet also suggests the burden of expectation placed upon children."<V&A>
After taking a long nice shower, turning on New York Jazz Seasons, roughly making a never fixed to-do list, pack on my camera, oh! giving myself a cup of coffee from Pret (a manger), of course! I am ready to GO!
V&A, Tate modern, galleries... Today - London Design Festival Day. It will be nice, also, if have time to walk to Southwark Cathedral. Not to mention late night dinner with Telli my love. All things make me today - Happy. Feels like put on Happy Feet.
After landing, mostly been told is: Welcome back home!! hehe...
Sure, always for those old days, and for the coming new days we are about to create. It feels good to be back.
Again, once I watched this video - all my classmates were struggling figure out how to play "who is the killer", when we were having gathering in Chinese New Year in my flat, I just cannot help laughing over and over again. I was shooting for everybody to record the process. WE - those were managing to devote into creative arts field, learning management skills, profit & loss, centraliz or decentralize leadership... things... were totally lost. Well - look at the bright side that the result was never the point since we were learning how to work with creativity, those distraction should be allowed! So the result was never the point, (not just this time but even our following every group projects actually) The point is during the process - like Kateria said: dont be so easy-going, let's debate! (and obviously, not only distraction, those people have control issue too.)
Even after three minutes past, the group still even hadn t had a clue. I cannot wait more, just directly asked Doui the result (yes, I cheat.) Doui and I were just laughing while watching those confused faces - from Italy, Brazil, Lebonon, Greece, Dubai, China, and Taiwan...
Till six minutes had past, they still cannot figure out how to play the game, turns out that Divi and I considering to having a drink....
and those all, even rolling on the Palliament Hills that my jeans almost running away from my bum... and teasing Sana who was actually anxious about her assignment, with my poor English, while she was having a hard fight with Chrismas tree lights...
