New logo for Adobe Photoshop

Drumroll please…

Claps and wolf whistle or do i hear howls of boos and sighs of disbelieve + discontent?
Adobe recently redesigned Photoshop’s logo. And I still can’t believe what I am seeing. Speechless. Best if you head over to this post to read more about it. Honestly, it does not appeal to me at all. Maybe I have seen too much of these effects around. Gosh… I will go roll down the stairs to clear my head. Tata.

The Anatomy Tattoo Gallery

Permanent ink anyone?
I have none on me but I enjoy looking at tastefully done skin art. But I try not too spend too much time looking at it as it makes me feel uneasy inside after a while. I realized that when I chose it as my design subject back in college. I was researching on it to a point where I was no longer interested in it. Some were just gross. After numerous hours and stares at grotesque permanent epidermis ‘art’ my only response was to finish the damn assignment be it shitty looking or not.

Would love to have a nice one on me but the idea of it drooping and discolouring under layers of flabby skin during my later years always gets to me. And I bet the tattoo artist won’t entertain me by flipping back and stretching my old skin and re-inking my ‘art’. Witnessing some history on shirtless uncles don’t exactly encourages me more.Anyway this anatomy tattoo gallery I found today is way cool. It’s really worth checking out. I particularly like the muscle one shown. Enjoy!

Oh and I heard that tattoos with godly icons should be always be done above the waist. A friend once told me, that a friend of a friend once did an image of Kuan Yin on his thigh and the moment he walked out of the tattoo parlour to cross the street he got knocked down by a car. Fatal or not I have no idea but talk about instant karma. Stupid decision.

Mooncake Galore… not

Happy Mooncake Festival people!
Have you had your share of mooncake? I had eaten half of a Snow Skin Yam Paste Single Yolk already… since last 3 weeks. Mmm… I think this is my 10th year spending it away from my family. I won’t be having any celebration too tonight for I will be on my own. No lantern and no mooncake. Only Chang-er staring down at me laughing gleefully.

But wait… I could go and climb. Fellow climbers, Derrick and DD suggested going over to Shah Alam X-treme park to climb tonight. I have not been there at night. A couple of hours blanketed by the dark night skies sound tempting. No stars as we are in the city except for the Orion’s Belt and friends. Let’s hope it don’t rain. Need to reconfirm their kind offer. Could take some photos of the park too.

Oh and to sponky, there should at least a decent park for you to jog right? Get a good pair of trainers and do some laps. That should burn some calories. Alternatively, you could take the ferry over to Hong Kong every now and then to get some workout. Both you and your wallet will be losing much weight over time. Hehe… And don’t worry, you were always the pudgy one among us. Happy Mooncake Festival from us here at home.

By the way, why haven’t any suppliers send any mooncakes to my workplace this year? Last year we had a lot and I managed to eat a few mooncakes for tea time. Actually I was the one who ate the most. With yolk or without yolk also I sapu. This year I have yet to see any… geez… burn. No free mooncake binge.

Note : I need to get a USB Bluetooth dongle to transfer some images taken with my phone so I can share my bad quality photos.
