Toylogy

Hey wazzup~!!! Friends and blog-walkers, it feels good to be back after a very very long hiatus. I've been so inactive that I was having a lil' bit difficulty signing in to my blog lol.

I was busy with my social and working life and primarily I kinda lost interest in blogging along the way. There are too much to handle online and as you know it, blogging takes up time.

Anyway, one of the things that I spent a lot of time, energy and money (*sniff* *sniff*) to make something meaningful out of my life is starting a business. And that business is designer toys. Not familiar of it? Then go wiki it or something teehee.

I actually planned to keep this secret from most people but *argh* one way or another this is going to come out.

In my opinion, this is not an easy thing to venture into considering the market that we are at (Malaysia, but we can see the potentials). Damn luckily, we have the internet which provides us the way to reach out to the rest of the world. It takes interests, determination, willingness to learn, risk taking and most importantly, I always reminded myself to never give-up. I don't care what turns out in the end, worse comes to worst at least I know tried and that experience alone is priceless. If I succeed, then chances are I'll be in Mary Land or someplace nice.

Before the start, I was doing a lot of thinking, researching and procrastinating. One of the things I knew I lack of is a serious partner of the same interest, same thoughts, understanding and most importantly for me is patience. Thank God one day I found this one person and better still he turned out to be my cousin, Jin. I felt that this is a miracle. I would like to think that God answered my prayer. It is even more amazing that Jin was the very first one who influenced me into getting interested in art and design from a very young age. He is one of the bros I look up to all my life. Everything happens for a reason? There were many signs already I guess.

So then both of us started from scrap. Time and time again we met many challenges and obstacles. We failed and we succeed. Long time since then has gone by but it felt like a blink. We only traveled a short distance but the destination ahead looks promising. So we will keep fighting and going and going...

Yadi yadi yado. We founded Toylogy. Check us out at our Flickr group Malaysia Toy Makers and Facebook page, Toylogy.

Fun with Microsoft Paint

This is what I did one time when I was too damn bored and free. Microsoft Paint was the only fun that I could get.

Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol is one of my favorite artists. Pop art is my favorite style of art and he is the main influence in it. He was an American painter, printmaker, and filmmaker who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. Pop art was an experimental form that several artists were independently adopting; some of these pioneers, such as Roy Lichtenstein, would later become synonymous with the movement. Warhol, who would become famous as the "Pope of Pop", turned to this new style, where popular subjects could be part of the artist's palette. His early paintings show images taken from cartoons and advertisements, hand-painted with paint drips. Those drips emulated the style of successful abstract expressionists (such as Robert Rauschenberg). Eventually, Warhol pared his image vocabulary down to the icon itself – to brand names, celebrities, dollar signs – and removed all traces of the artist's "hand" in the production of his paintings.

Performed Non-surgical Facelift Exchange

I got these made a long long time ago while experimenting with the face-lift exchange technique. So I thought of posting it up to share with you all. I had fun with it. It's humorous and you know what, I look pretty decent as a girl lololol. WTF.

The images below might be disturbing or arousing to viewers depending on their preferences. You may never look at me the same way again. TFK not allowed.

Car road show babes Face challenge. Who you with??
This is an old one. Just to refresh your memory.




Philippine babes promoters Face challenge. I think the girl's face on the right side looks very plastic. Either she had too many face gloss (got such thing?) on or excessive surgery.




Korean Hot Kim Chi Models Face-off. Say what? Say what?
Let me hear you say Ooo~! Ooop~!



I got another better version ones coming soon! =D

Michael Jackson RIP

The news about Michael Jackson death came as quite a shock to me. I was at work when my executive first told me about it. I could not believe it and I thought it was just some kind of hoax rumors being spread around. It spread like wildfire. My heart kinda sunk at this point.

Once I reached home, I turned on my computer and went online to check out the news. Sadly it turned out real. Michael Jackson, the great one is no longer in this world. This made me realized that I never felt that heartbroken for any celebrities before. I think it is no wonder as I used to idolize Michael Jackson when I was a kid. Not only me, my brothers and some of my cousins too. We grew up listening and singing to his music, and imitating his dance moves especially the moonwalk.

Michael Jackson's impacts is evident throughout the world especially since his passing. Whenever you turn on the TV, you see him, wherever you go, you will hear his music being played these days like from the radio and in the club and whatever you do like drinking cincau si peng or soya bean mix with cincau, it will remind you of 'Black & White'. It feels like, "you'll only realize something is precious to you when it is gone".

People around the world are missing him damn a lot including me. Man, I was looking forward to his concert in London. It was suppose to go that way at least to end his illustrious and legendary music career if not for a great comeback. Unfortunately, he is gone too soon.

You know, a lot of times the media had been unmerciful to him. His personal life had always been a target. Through the media, you always do not know what to believe in. Never mind his personal life. Believe in Michael, believe in what he had accomplished and created for us in this world. The ground-breaking songs, the greatest dance moves, most generous humanitarian acts, the glove, the socks, the armband, the shoes, the jackets and some more. His legacy will forever be remembered.

Michael Jackson the King of Pop, Rest in Peace.

You are gone too soon MJ...

Fro-Dogg

Seriously, I hate this dog statue. It doesn’t know how to bark. No way can it play fetch. Worst of all it doesn’t even have real furs for me to pat. All the dog knows is to just stand there, takes up the space of the living room and waiting to be cleaned off of the dust everyday.

If one is bad enough, how about another one?

I have no idea what was so appealing about this dog statue that my dad made the decision to buy it. It shouldn’t be because of the puppy eyes right? Impulsive buying I guess.

Or just to use it to scare off the thefts in case they break into the house (I hope not, it’s useless).

I’m selling them (without the consent from the Dad and Mom but who cares!). This dog statue will go to the highest bidder. Quick! Bid now! Price starting at 50 bucks. They are men's best friend for cheap price and low on the maintenance. Gargh~ my life is so sad lol.

I had a pet dog but she ran away from home more than two months ago. I still see her around the neighborhood but she doesn’t seem to recognize me anymore. Oh well at least she got her freedom.

The dog figurines gave me the idea for this design. Had this done a few months ago. Should have post it up sooner but due to some complications, I couldn't haha. Introducing Fro-Dogg!

P.S. Does the name Frodo Baggins ring any bell? =P
