Heidi-chan diaries: July 2008

Some of our friends I've come across / spoken to whilst alone had been asking me how's my darling doing, the usual pleasantries like how's she feeling, any cravings etc etc.. but the question that makes their eyes light up or voices exclaimed is usually "I havent Seen her in such a long time!!~ how big is she now???!~"

Is like somehow friends just expect you to be different when you're preggie, haa,, but honestly for kittywifey nothing has changed much except the growing stomach and this "light-shine-down-from-heaven-on-face-*choir-singing-Ahhhhhhh*" glow that she has.. hee.. words can't realli describe so will just post some pictures to update the friends that hadn't seen her for awhile baa..

gg to a friend's wedding a weeks ago.. Kittywifey looked blessed~ly G.L.A.M. even at HDB corridor right?? hee... (cause photographer skill is blessed too laa.. keke)

i've seen enuff photos on facebook to know that the majority of my pals were at the toyandcomic convention last weekend like myself, who had gotten kittywifey to accompany me there as i didn't wanna miss out on the fun. =D

I was there at the convention early by myself, and spent a good 1hour alone taking pictures, strolling at booths pondering what to buy and deciding if it is worth to depart with the kinda $ etc.. met Shinichiro Katai and Simone Legno in the flesh, didn't get excited enuff to feel compelled like the masses around me to swarm them for autographs and pics, although i swear my head still has the voices of guys gushing and screaming "oh my gosh!! its him!" or "quick! quick! where's the guide book??! let him sign!!!" (-_-

little did i know our very own "celebrity moment" was to come later... *grins*

years ago i bought a few "gloomy (pronounced gurumi) bear" products for kittywifey as we found it to have a quality bit of black humour bout it. i mean c'mon, a pink bear with claws dripping w/ blood.. hw utterly adorable is that. =D Anyways, we went to the booth and saw that all the merchandise were sold out, and they were cutting and selling the collage walls of their exhibition booth instead, and at first glance i saw this cool rastafari malay dude drawing on the walls pple purchased and it was only later that i realised it's the creator himself, mori Chack!!

how the uncut collage Wall of the booth looked like..

We joined the Q instantly but kittywifey was getting grouchy as the Q didn't move for at least 30mins.. we didn't give up and when it was our turn (after 1hour), we noticed that the cut-up walls available aren't exactly very nice... then God opened my eyes & i saw this strip of wall behind their glass shelf containing the TV (pple who went will noe) is left intact.

With the wisdom of God, kittywifey started some mini-japanese conversation with mori chack and after some hesitation, (speaking from experience; japanese professionals hate to be told what to do, but that's another story) he & his partner agreed to cut out a specific portion of the wall we wanted JUST FOR US!! whoo-hoo! the FAVOUR of God is powerful man.. we had to wait another 20-odd mins but when we finally gotten our hands on our special piece it felt super worth it!! Felt bad for the staff & the translator though, as pple behind us saw what happened and ask for the same but mori chack & crew refused to cut another special piece and the pple turned vicious and nasty. =(

But still, mori chack is a ACE guy, super polite, no airs and somehow he still seems overwhelmed by all the attention even till now. yet behind his bashfulness, he has this air of "celebrity-ism" around him.. haa.. more so than the other artists ooh... We have officially become fans of gloomy bear!!!
