Decorated books, SOTDs, & Wee Kim Wee
I met
Wee Kim Wee once.
OK, so you're probably thinking "Who the heck is that?" unless you're Singaporean. :D Wee Kim Wee was a former president of Singapore.
Anyway, he was a nice guy in a grandfatherly kind-of way. He gave me a signed autobiography, and said we should never forget to be humble. I never forgot that.
So I suddenly got curious last week and googled him. And I just found out he died last year. I know, a year has passed, but all I can say is I don't live in Singapore so this was not a headline in my daily newspaper.
It's just strange. I met him a few years back and now, he's dead. I don't know.
It just gave me a queer feeling.Anyway,
Samantha asked me to put up clearer pictures of my
overly decorated Physics book from the last post. So here they are.

back
I like the back better than the front, lol.
Oh, and while I was gone, I got SOTD.
Twice. :D Nothing really. It didn't change the world or anything. But it was just fun.
OK, so I have to go now. The post ends here.
Gah, Calculus exam tomorrow. I've studied until my brains fried up. I'll be praying hard.

So I'm Daisy (or fedora_girl)
I'm (naturally) wearing the fedora.
I'm a Chemical Engineering student --- getting that degree sometimes involves putting my brain through a strainer --- who also enjoys living life and eating like every meal is my last meal.
I'm a child of God, and that gives my life meaning.
I adore my family and friends. We spend a lot of time together, so they occasionally come up in my posts.
I also take pictures, do computer work, and scribble. I use Adobe Photoshop for long periods of time, and design blogs. I submit most of my good photos and drawings in
my DeviantArt account, and my blog designs in
my Blogskins account.
I read a lot. My favorite books of all time are the Holy Bible,
Pride & Prejudice,
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Boy Who Could Fly,
The Nanny, &
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
I don't like watching TV because I feel it gives me wrong ideas about the real world. I'm partial to period dramas, musicals and other good movies though. A few that I like are
Pride & Prejudice (2005 version),
North & South (a BBC TV drama),
Facing The Giants,
Sixteen Candles, &
Singin' In The Rain.
I love music; I like a lot of genres. I'm getting into country music and some good rock at the moment. I also adore movie soundtracks and songs that are more than 60 years old.
And about this blog...
It's pretty much a personal thing. It's filled to the brim with my escapades, thoughts, stuff I make, and just plain observations. Random, really.
Hope you enjoy it!
