It was supposed to be a cool July evening with a slight drizzle outside. But it stopped, and the muggy humidity has set back in. Still, it’s nice to find a few quiet moment before I fade into blissful rest.
It’s been a crazy three weeks as I found a job for the next two months before I start teaching, played gigs, had rehearsals, was part of a wedding entourage, and even fractured my wrist! But more importantly, I was with the family and friends that I love.
Won’t say much more now, but I’ll let the pictures do the talking:
A fairly resounding day with me presenting to a class of nine, 14 year old students a compact, two hour introduction to making documentaries and some erstwhile tips to surviving the process. It was a lot to condense, and I didn’t have that much time to prepare, but if you can be bothered to look through the presentation, there are links at the end of it that points to the examples I used to highlight what documentaries could be.
After that, it was off to a social gathering organised by my church’s young adults’ network. I thought it was quite a nice gathering from folk, and I caught up with a few leaders who were older than me, and we talked about my decision to start teaching (in September). I suppose it was kind of cathartic for me, and also introspective to listen to the accounts of people who have been there before me.
So there was food, and there were sodas, someone made incredible cheesecakes (that were generous with the crumbly base.) But things really picked up when my friend showed up with his incredible “Horse Head”. If you wear this, you inadvertently turn into Horse Head Man. Here are the pictures:

And lastly, I was just thinking, before I die, or after I die, I would like to publish all my personal entries into a book entitled “The Published Work Of The Misadventures Of Brian Leery.”
Just some random shots with my hipstamatic app on the iPhone. I do like black and white photography, and maybe I’ll pursue it to some degree in the near future.
I went down to the second Singapore Tat2 Show with Chloe Leow on Friday, thanks to media invites from the PR team. So here are some snaps, using my new favourite hipstamatic application for the iPhone.
Chris Garver at work, apparently on a sweet tiger design.
Maybe he wanted it to go with his board shorts.
If you were getting inked on your kneecap, you’d be making the same face.
Sweet John Lenon ink. Miss Norma Jean not so much..
Yes. His ass! Also looks like some kind of Yakuza entourage.

Getting ink on his neck. No wonder you just look tough with ink on.
