Random Thoughts / Killing Time at the Collective

__

I'm kaladkarin. Kaladkarin is somebody who you can drag anywhere, anytime, hehe. Just text me and if I can, I will. That kaladkarin. But last week was different because it was me who made kaladkad this time. (Or not? I probably make kaladkad all the time hehe and oh excuse that sentence, I am not conio ha okay haha.) I dragged my friend Moski to go with me to the Flow 6 launch last week.

☝ Hi Moski!




The meeting I went to prior to the Flow event finished very early so we just decided to go to the Flow thing ahead of the 6pm time to avoid traffic and general haggardness. We never realized though that 430pm was wayyyy to early! haha We wanted to avoid rush hour traffic kasi hehe. We had lots of time to kill. Good thing that the Collective is just around the corner! Hi the Collective, we meet again!

After checking out some of the galleries and the stores, we went to Wabi Sabi for a quick dinner. Nomnomnom time!





☝ Super yum!!

Random Thoughts / The Collective

__

Went to The Collective with team FFT: Mike, Karl and Thysz. It was supposed to be a ToyCon then 20/20 exhibit opening night for me but lady luck, unfortunately, was not on my side. When I left, it started raining cats and dogs and polar bears. Then on our way to The Collective, the taximan decided to take the gang out for a spin around Makati (read=lost). But all is well that ends well. I got to see The Collective finally. And of course, it was nice seeing the FFT peeps again hehe.

☝ Mike in Megamall, Japan.


☝ 20/20

After a few hi's and hello's (and photo ops), we checked out some of the stores and stuff around the Collective. FYI this place used to be a warehouse.

First was Black Book:

☝ Nice sculpture, no? And nice fan too! (that black star-warsey thing)








Then we went to Skitzo, a costume store:

☝ Hi Gelo


☝ iWant! When I have the time (and effort and budget) I'll try to DIY this.





Then Hysteric Wacko—this was where I died and went to the japanese-street-style-supernice-paper-design-photography-mag heaven.

☝ I Want. That's all.











☝ Hi Thysz! We died! We can haz the japanese mags pls thanks. haha

Just so you know, Hysteric Wacko is not a mag store ha! haha The sell clothes pero TBH I'm more interested in checking the mags out haha Like a moth to flame..
