I <3 Tooth

This is what we've been doing for the last few lab sessions, burring practice. My 1mm-deep heart and cylinder that got chipped at the edge (high speed drills need a light hand =p) And the 2mm-square trapezoid below. Tooth art anyone? =)

Cool things for the home

A cool folding table Campo d'oro by Paolo Pallucco that transforms into a perfect square. I like how the dimensions are so exact, and when they line up the edges are perfectly straight =)

PS. hey, i just realised, this table will have way more legs than the usual 4! that'll look so odd when it's in its square form, haha.

Cool things for the home

Brush and Rinse, another award-winning design by Scott Amron. The back of the toothbrush has been modified so that held at a certain angle under the tap, it can produce a perfect fluid parabola! You won't need a glass any longer to rinse, or try to collect the water in your hands! It's amazing how he always manages to improve simple, everyday items that most of us never give a second thought to.
Pretty umbrellas from Pare that I want.

Useless and insensible, but so sweet (haha!). French Heart Sugar Cubes that sit on the edge of your cup. I have no idea why you'd want to do this though, wouldn't your tea/coffee remain unsweetened??

Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat, It's Not Your Fault :'(

Halfway through lunch at Bon Appetit at Sunshine Plaza this afternoon with my 'Thursday Gang', these songs suddenly popped into my head....

Grandma

Now grandma's a person who everyone likes
She brought you a train and a bright shiny bike
But lately she hasn't been coming to dinner
And last time you saw her she looked so much thinner.
Now your mom and your dad said she moved to Peru,
But the truth is she died and someday you will too
La-la-la-la-la...

Holiday Song

Went to the store, sat on Santa's lap
Asked him to bring my friends all kinds of crap
Said all you need is to write them a song
Now you haven't heard it yet so don't try to sing along
No don't sing along
Monica, Monica, have a happy Hanukkah
Saw Santa Claus, he said hello to Ross
And please tell Joey, Christmas will be snowwwwwy
And Rachel and Chandler, (mumbles something) handler!

And these just made me realise how much i miss my old friends and how we used to sing Phoebe Buffay's silly songs in class. I even remember belting out Smelly Cat while kayaking with jitty during OBS. Haha...
