That's where i spent my Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day...at a friend's friend's house at Chiswick Park. (Thanks to you guys, Gerry and Sam, i didnt have to spend my last few days alone, and it means alot to me)..
So yea, i spent those days at Dana's house, Sam and Gerry's friend....it was 6 of us guys, the 5 of them Indonesians, and me, the odd Malaysian...(for the few days, i was such a jealous indonesian wannabe coz of their uber cool indon accent..ahhh!)
What did we do the whole time?...haha!...ironic..
all the way the other side of the world, and we were playing Winning Eleven the whole time!!!...(well, over here, they call it Pre Evolution Soccer, and that was the only difference), but yea..Wining Eleven, Eat, Sleep, Winning Eleven, Eat, Sleep, Eat, Sleep....hahaah!..at least it was better than spending Christmas alone :)
On Boxing day, (today), i woke up early, (coz i fell asleep early), and went out for some photography in the neighbourhood...it was a beautiful morning...
Thanks again guys, you have no idea how far such a small gesture goes...cheers!

Anthony
This is Anthony...
(well, a drawing of Anhony...or rather, a photo of my drawing of Anthony...well actually, a image on your computer screen of the photo of my drawing of Anthony....or, hahaha!)
Anthony is one of the many many homeless ppl that live out there on the streets of London..He's been living out there on and off for about 3-4 years now.
The reason i wanted to draw again, was because, i didnt want to get a part time job during my Christmas break to get money...coz i thought it was a waste of my time and my skills in art and design...so, i figured i'd draw and try to sell my drawings, hoping that i'll make some good money from there...havent sold this yet, but i'll let you guys know....
Why homeless ppl?..well, why not?..
to cut the long story short, most pencil artists draw important ppl, celebrities, models, and friends and family...well, i do that too...but one day i thought, "hey, not many ppl like to draw the homeless....why not?.."...so, i decided, i'd do it...and seriously, why not?..
*think about it*
isit because they're hopeless scums, who brought their fate upon themselves?..
because they screwed up, and they dun wana do anything about it, contented with getting sympathized and given spare change?
well, i'd like to see them the way God sees them...and He sees, we're no different from them, and them from us..
so again..why not?

It ain't easy...
It aint easy being away,
aint easy not having friends and family from home nearby,
aint easy living in ridiculous weather,
aint easy having so little daylight,
aint easy having so much work to do, but no one to do it with,
aint easy thinking that once this holiday is braved i have to start all over again,
aint easy not being able to have home cooked food,
aint easy not being able to just go out to get a tan,
aint easy not being able to eat Malaysian food whenever i want,
it aint easy....
...but its possible...
God help me.
