remindful of.

Ah, the rubber seed. Such a tiny little thing for its a massive role in my growth. Back when I was working at Singapore Art Museum, I loved being assigned to Isabelle Desjeux's exhibit, 1000 Rubber Seeds and One Mutant. I memorised my lines, I fell in love with the concept and I grew as a person. I learnt how to love failures for what they are. I loved the interactions I had, the drawings I gave and the lessons I kept.

If a word could be defined in a journey, this word would be: reminiscent.

As pensive as I am, taking a walk with two good friends certainly helped put things in perspective. Only God knows how much this has helped me. With all the sincerity in my heart, I do hope that this has helped you too.

LEGOLAND Malaysia ☀☁ (part 1.5)

More photo-taking sessions
With the hijabi, muslim kid and painter. Oh, and the flowers and trees!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------❀

We started walking towards our left, and I spot a life-size lego sculpture/model of a hijabi holding a muslim kid's hand (we assumed that it was a mother and son- but it could have been a sister and a younger brother or an aunt and her nephew, you get what I mean). She even had a lego brooch! Impressive!

You can tell in the photos that Kak Shidah didn't really want to have her photo taken, but the last photo was an exception (;

Just when we thought our "photo-taking sessions with the live-scale lego sculptures/models" was over, I spot-

a Lego painter.

I mean, seriously- just look at her palette; do you see any blends? Ms Ye would be disappointed; "Never use paint straight out from the tube," she would always remind us during painting classes back in Goodman campus.

Also, I was fascinated (Nurul, when are you not fascinated at anything?) at the beautiful flowers and plants they had planted around in the park. And yes, real flowers not lego ones.

Look at how beautiful they are, mashaAllah! (:

Well, that's it for part 1.5! Stay tuned for part 2 (;

Stay inspired,
