BEEN SO BUSYYYY!!! Anyway, finally started work as a florist!! Ok errr actually I'm just doing till the end of Feb since they want commitment which I can't provide and I feel bad :((( The pay isn't that good IMO since I have to travel all the way to Orchard too, so I'll just quit.
Floral Obsession* @ Scotts Square by K+
^ Floral Obsession is a pop up curatorial florist store in Scotts Square by K+, which is this company that provides a curatorial space for artists to showcase their works and sell them. PERFECT FOR ARTSY PEOPLE. Chris (the florist) is A FREAKING TALENTED FLORIST I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING!! He didn't even go for flower arrangement classes and did everything based on his instincts. PLUS flower arrangement is his hobby, so basically he's making a living out of his hobby. SO JEALOUS!!!
Anyway, worked for 2 days there, and that place is ATAS. Been washing the vases and learning abit of admin stuff like Excel (been forever since I've touched excel)! But on day 2 I actually watched someone doing a flower arrangement for the first time in my life! I feel super privileged!! Somemore it's by some talented guy ;))
Watching him arrange flowers makes me feel so happy. The way he thinks about how to design the arrangement, the way he uses his imagination to think of creative ways to use different types of flowers intrigues me. (And since I don't really have alot of stuff to do), I've been thinking if I will ever be so devoted to something in my life. Even though I can't really appreciate those arrangements (I am not artsy), but everything has his mind and soul to it and you can even guess what music he's listening to when arranging them. But, the arrangements are GORGEOUS. Legit.

watched this from start to finish![/caption]And I didn't even know there were so many people interested in flowers/arrangements!!! Maybe cause I've never been exposed to flowers (and the flowers are REAL EX) so I can't appreciate it \'_'/

PRETTY RIGHT???[/caption]But yea and it made me think of stuff even more. What you study in university does not actually determine your career. Working hard for what you actually like determines your career. WOWZIES so chim!!! Learnt all these chim stuff in 2 days in a flower shop clearly I've been tamed (ok kidding) HAHAHAHA.
SO INSPIRED!!! <3

Forgot to ask where he got it from though![/caption]
OHOH and on the 3rd level is another store by K+, which showcases art by talented artists, but it changes often! This time it's by Keng Lye, who used resin and acrylic to make SUPER LOOK-LIKE REAL artworks!! Kinda scary how it actually looks like a real fish trapped inside!!! The art works are usually DAMN EXPENSIVE, which I wouldn't afford but there are actually people buying them!! (clearly I'm being introduced to the atas world which I cannot afford T.T)
