Umbrella Shelter

I had a meeting at MOE, North Buona Vista in the afternoon. After the meeting, I stepped out only to find it drizzling. I quickly sought shelter under this gentleman's umbrella while I scrambled to get out my own umbrella. Thanks for the shelter, kind gentleman. :)

Dreamscape by Lee Kow Fong

I attended an art exhibition, Dreamscape by Lee Kow Fong, a local artist/ illustrator. 
I really love his style of drawing. It allows me to escape into a whimsical world. :) Lee also incorporates local scenery/ icons into his drawings which makes them special.

I bought two sets of his postcards. :)

If Lee's style of drawing is what you fancy too, you can visit his webpage here. :)

Cups N Canvas Cafe

This is the second time I am at Cups N Canvas and coincidentally the first time I was there was on 10 May 2013. Almost 2 years ago to the date! :) The decor remains the same, as well as its artistic ambience. :)

 

Iced Cucumber Mint Tea - refreshingly cool

The chicken cutlet is crispy but juicy and tender.

After a delicious lunch, I did some work - looking at teachers' interviews and trying to surface the themes. Who could resist a little incentive while doing mental work? Lol.

French Apple Cake with Iced Peach Lychee Tea

The apple cake is a delightful surprise - not too sweet, soft but with apple slices in it. Different from the usual apple pie. It is the perfect pre Mother's Day treat for myself. :)

CCA Interview

Marieann had her interview with CCA Art Club in the afternoon. Apparently there are 27 applicants who applied to join the Art Club but only a handful will be selected. The interview took the form of a drawing. The applicants were asked to draw and the applicants' successful application will be based on the drawing. 
Marieann seemed confident about her drawing. All the Best!
However, she also has a Plan B. One of the seniors who was in charge of her class during the Sec 1 Orientation Week is a Librarian. :) 

NOISE Singapore 2014

I missed out on bringing my girls to NO13E Singapore 2014 Festival Showcase Exhibition at ION Event Hall B4. With all the "excitement" about Prelims and PSLE, I forgot to note the dates for NO13E Singapore 2014 (27 August - 14 September). Alas, I could only admire the art works by myself and take as many photos as I could to show the girls. Sorry, girls, 2015 ok?

NOISE Singapore 2013

I brought my girls to NO13E Singapore 2013 Festival Showcase Exhibition at ION Event Hall B4. I thought that they would enjoy looking at the art works, especially Marieann since she is into art. We spent 1.5 hours at the exhibition and took plenty of photos. :)

Here are some of my personal favourites. :)

We also received two limited edition Uniqlo x Noise t-shirts after the people-in-charge told us to post any photos taken at Noise Singapore 2013 Showcase Exhibition and include the hashtag #no13e on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. What a bonus lol. :P
