Balloon version of Mr B

I happened to pass the post office on Friday and there was a lady outside making balloon figurines. She asked us what did we want. Miss Piggy wanted a piggy, and me, natürlich, Mr B.

I was a bit confused that he came out looking like a Beary Dog? But cute nonetheless.

Yoshimoto Nara @ 8Q

Note: Backdated Post *oops*

On one of our visits to the Singapore Art Museum, I was waiting for B1 at the counter when I noticed the beautiful artwork by Yoshimoto Nara in a brochure. It said that his work was on display at 8Q... 8Q?

The security guard told us it was at the building diagonal from the museum (the NTUC Income building is perpendicular to both buildings). Since we were near closing time, we decided to go there the next Friday.

I can't remember much about the visit, except *rather vainly* I remember the lonely stamp art I did of the sad octopus, which was supposed to me (this I remember to blog? WTF)

 

 

I went to the Borders sale

For this book.

 One of the other books we bought was this:

I was going to say, hmm, must link to the post I did for the Yoshitomo Nara exhibition I saw at the 8Q earlier this year, when I realized, I never blogged it in the first place. Now searching through and writing...

B1 is a big fan (oh now he says he thought I was the fan), that's why we bought it even though it was an eye-watering S$50 after 50% discount.

New Blogger Interface

I was reading on Mashable that Google has finally done something to Blogger. So I was watching out for the changes while logging in. Now that I am trying it out, I am thinking, it looks awfully like Gmail? Google doesn't reinvent the wheel huh...

Pluses:

I like that now that I finish an entry, it goes to the dashboard instead of the blog.

It is now easier to label my stuff, as Blogger autosuggests the labels.

Cool, I can change language on the interface.

Minuses:

I wish I can see the stats more readily.
I thought that they would add new things that will show which country is accessing your blog at any time, just like those free live feeds.

Blogger stats - not sure it can be believed. It seems to be changing everytime (even old Blogger). Note: I mean the All Time tab obviously. There is now a count against each entry, but I am not sure what is it counting? The accumulated, methinks. Still not accurate, when you compare the entry's total against the "All Time" total.

Interesting:

Is there any stats for labels?
New Post Page => Good to have a "edit posts" or have a side panel for accessing the posts I have written before, so that I can access or link if necessary. 

All Posts => Can we sort the entries by stats or date or name or label?

I removed my nick and email address, but otherwise here is most of the new interface. To be updated.

So ironic. Part of my COH nick is mentioned. Well, I am a female nerd and proud of it. So suck it, bitches!!!
