had the opportunity to attend the Malaysian International Art Expo last nite... very interesting... art galleries from the region and some from Europe had their works displayed... one Malaysian artist who works with glass made this amazing HUGE piece out of glass.... was of a colourful fish pond.. was on sale for RM85K! lots of other really cool art pieces... some very innovative... one chinese guy used paper from recycled books to create portaits.. very cool! oh i could go on n on...
after seeing all that i feel like painting again! :)
bumped into my former student/collegue (Snow) who is now managing an art gallery and also bumped into a college mate (Justin) who still paints n plays music! also got to speak to a couple of interesting people...
the crown prince n princess came to officiate the Expo.... and they had this awesome HUGE Maserati car!! its beautiful.... but the cost of that one car could prob be enough to pay for the education of 50 kids or more in Africa!! it's a really nice car... and yes he is a prince... but it is the countrymen's tax money!! it's not fair. and then there is the new palace that is being built which costs 800million!!! for what??! whats wrong with the old one? whats goin to happen to it then?
sigh.... these things frustrate me!!

1st wedding in Oct....
Priya’s wedding was nice…. a lot of Indian/hindu culture infused into the ceremony as well... mostly done in tamil, but guess its prob cause majority were tamil speaking...
I think Priya is one of the quiet Indian girls who may seem a bit conventional but she is amazing young lady with a very strong will and a clear head.. I think she will be able to handle challenges that come along her way. Mathan also seems pretty tough n stubborn but he might soften up to her…
I think I was the only one in a dress!! And a short one at that! This has never happened before. Most young girls were in Punjabi suits… ah well who cares! Priya was her sweet self… she did something really funny though… while she was seated on the pelamin, she kept putting her feet in the air and making small circles, was so cute n hilarious, yet somewhat discreet….
I think I shall borrow a Punjabi suit or sari or something more Indian to the next Indian wedding…
