    In search of.

    haven’t tumblr-ed/blogged in the longest time. i think this activity appeals to me best when i’m so caught up with work and projects; the need to rant or complain or release some stress. 

    fast-forward from that busy period just a few months back, i have officially graduated from school. no more school assignments, final year project or exams to study for. just came back from a two week graduation trip to taiwan & hong kong, and am looking forward to a four day trip to BKK with the bf. 

    for now though, life seems to be pretty much…mundane and slow. what looms over each day of mine is pretty much the prospect(or lack of) of finding a job. have been at it for six months or so, and have yet to secure the job of my dreams. 

    guess i never thought that i would have problems with finding a job before i officially graduated from school, and this unplanned, unfamiliar situation baffles me. i wonder if it is because of all the uncertainties in my heart, not knowing what i want to do, not knowing what ignites the flames in my heart that is preventing me from being successful. 

    doesn’t help that friends around me are all starting work soon and peer pressure does get to me at times. it really isn’t me, to be just sitting around and relaxing, not having work to do. but i try hard to curtail such feelings within me, knowing that i have God to lean on for support. 

    in a time like this, i do believe that my relationship with God is really important, in helping me to move ahead and feel confident about my future. i read in a book that we should treat ‘our time with God as the opportunity to recharge the pacemaker of our heart” and that phrase stayed on my mind for days. 

    maybe i have yet to fully let go, and leave all things up to Him. but i’m not going to give up now. i’m going to push on in my search for answers, and my search for true inner peace and calmness. with an open and willing heart, i believe He will answer my prayers in time to come.

    Catherine Middleton and Sarah Burton have successfully kept the best-guarded secret in fashion history. The incredibly moving moment when the new Duchess of Cambridge stepped out of her car in an Alexander McQueen dress was the fantasy everyone in fashion has been dreaming would come true.

    ik-spre-sh-en: misswallflower: Girls In The Windows by Ormond Gigli, 1960  ”In 1960, while a construction crew dismantled a row of brownstones right across from my own brownstone studio on East 58th Street, I was inspired to, somehow immortalize those buildings. I had the vision of 43 women in formal dress adorning the windows of the skeletal facade.We had to work quickly to secure City permissions, arrange for models which included celebrities, the demolition supervisior’s wife (third floor, third from left), my own wife (second floor, far right), and also secure the Rolls Royce to be parked on the sidewalk. Careful planning was a necessity as the photography had to be accomplished during the workers’ lunch time!The day before the buildings were razed, the 43 women appeared in their finest attire, went into the buildings, climbed the old stairs, and took their places in the windows. I was set up on my fire escape across the streeet, directing the scene, with bullhorn in hand. Of course I was concerned for the Models’ safety, as some were daring enough to pose out on the crumbling sills.The photography came off as planned. What had seemed to some as too dangerous or difficult to accomplish, became my fantasy fulfilled, and my most memorable self - assigned photograph. It has been an international award winner ever since.Most professional photographers dream of having one signature picture they are known for. “Girls in The Windows” is mine.” LOVE THIS!
