resume

some interesting emergencies come up. they always do. and interrupt life. i have just resumed normal activity, and there is a huge pile of... life waiting for me to take care of them!

the professional sample did not happen. mine was far more professional than the one i got from the tailor. it was a huge disappointment (sorry, so bad that i can't even upload photos). i didn't discuss the matter too much with them, took my sample home and decided to... do it by myself!!! as usual. actually, i was expecting things would turn out this way, but hoping i would prove wrong...

one note on the positive side: my dear friend brought me lots of samples of shopping bags. a biiig thank you! i think mine is still the cutest;)

so i guess this means even more sewing machine time for me!

shadow of the man

there was an exhibition about shadow. there is an exhibition, actually, because it will last until may 6th, the name is in praise of shadow . it was about everything shadow: puppets, animations, drawings, footage from shadow plays... actually stuff i really like and want to spend a special time researching. i went there a couple of weeks ago, but was kind of... disappointed. i don't know what exactly i was expecting, but i wanted see more 'stuff' and 'action', i guess. the exhibition left a 'weak' taste in my mouth. thinking about all the incredible effects you can do with shadow... i always like walking around the museum (usually the museum is more interesting than what's inside for me) so it can be fun to visit if you have some extra time and keep your expectations low.
