Hey guys! So it’s been 7 months since my last post….:( Sorry bout that. My excuse? Same old lame excuse – busy, no time, tired, blah blah blah. Anyways, I’ve taken a nice shot of my favorite food in Singapore. I hope to take some more and get into food photography.
I forgot about blogging but I will never forget the…..chili crab! ^_^
I have 9 years of design experience behind me but would you believe that I don’t have any idea about the fundamentals of design nor do I have a formal education of it. I just design based on what I think is beautiful and usable.
I felt like reading something I can bring anywhere with me. I’m tired of staring at the monitor. So I went to Basheer Graphic Book shop and grab myself a copy of Designs Basic Index by Jim Krauss. I found myself reading it every morning in the bus on my way to office. Just as the title says, it’s all about the basics of designs.
This book is not the ‘show-off’ type which features the trendy and stylish designs out there. It covers the fundamentals of design from typography and color to layout and business issues. What I like the most is the ‘do’s and don’ts’ of designing. My design practices changed after applying what I’ve learned from this book. Designing is not about the rules, but knowing the essentials can help you come up with an aesthetically and effective design. I’ve learned new things on this book. It’s a worthwhile read for beginners and also a great reference for advanced designers.
Don’t stop learning! ^_^

It’s been 7 months since I wrote something in my blog. And it’s been 1 year and 4 months since I joined Comnet here in Singapore. It’s been a busy year for me. No wonder I can’t even update my blog. Even though, being an employee is not as comfortable as being a freelancer, what i can say is, I’m happy here. It’s the people around me, the colleagues, friends, the good and evil clients that you have to deal with, the feeling that people are relying on you, that you are an important player in the team, the joy we share whenever WE did a good job for a project, the knowledge that we pass on each other, and ofcourse, the craziness in the office! These are the things that I didn’t have when I was working alone as a freelancer.
My goal is to learn as many things as possible and be more effective with my work. How I wish I can free up some more time to study, blog, take photos with L. And how I wish to to have more salary so I’ll be even more happier hahaha! ^_^
I know you guys have been waiting for ages for L’s journey series. Let me say that I’m terribly sorry that I wasn’t able to update on this. I’ve been busy with a lot of stuff here. L’s been neglected and to make up for it, we had these unworldly ice cream together :P We loooove this ice cream so much. For us, it’s a piece of heaven ^_^
