precisemonkey music — 1st playlist on deezer.

I’m quite in the mood of elec­tronic and soul music at the moment. It reminds me of the old beau­ti­ful days… Sound like an old woman huh ;p

A house that has paintings on the wall is the house I called home

Let’s add some touch of your per­son­al­ity on to the wall. Here’s some dec­o­ra­tion idea for your home inspiration.

Miss you

I’ll take a revenge

When I went to Seoul, Korea on March this year I had a chance to visit Arario Gallery in Sam­cheong. There’s lovely oil paint­ings and sculp­tures of a girl and her rab­bit friend by Hanna Kim exhib­ited at the time. I love that her work was gen­tle yet full of emo­tion. I rec­om­mend you to read more about the exhi­bi­tion here – The Tri­umph of Daily Life from pdf

I couldn’t find Hana Kim’s offi­cial site. How­ever, this link is prob­a­bly the best source you can read more about the artist.

Morning muse – My daily internet activities

Day to day I’m using so many social net­work sites, blogs and app. You can say I’m addicted to them.

BlogLovin

Every morn­ing, first thing after i turn-on my mac I will go straight to BlogLovin. With that I will check all my rss feeds. I have this feel­ing, BlogLovin is more pop­u­lar among those in fash­ion field. I’m not sure about design/art peo­ple what are they into? Tum­blr, may be. The rea­son why I pre­fer BlogLovin is sim­ply because of its min­i­mal — easy to use user interface. I can access my account in any inter­net browsers. Mean I could check my rss from any com­put­ers avail­able just to log-in with my account and they will always look the same.

Tum­blr

After check­ing through all my rss sub­scrip­tion I will go to Tum­blr. It is another visual inspi­ra­tion hub where I will start warm-up my head to visual think­ing mode. I also love that I will find some words of wis­dom in here to.

Tum­blr

With Tum­blr, I also share. I have 3 blogs in here. 3 Things I am really into. I will col­lect what ever that related to the topic in my tum­blr blogs. This make it easy to me when I want to refer back to what I’ve found.

Kafair

Kafair is a Thai word for cof­fee. At the time I start using Tum­blr, I was in charge of man­ag­ing a cof­fee shop. I thought what would be the best way to col­lect infor­ma­tion, inspi­ra­tion as well as shar­ing the find­ings to my part­ner then I though of Tum­blr. As a con­se­quence, Kafair is related to cof­fee, tea and what is related to afternoon’s break. They can be books, words, as much as pack­ag­ing and inte­rior design for shop outlets.

I later set auto­matic post from Kafair to my fb page, Pre­cise Mon­key. That was because I think artist/designer are cof­fee freaks I want to share with them some light con­tent, like cof­fee things.

start­ing as an online jour­nal for my cof­fee shop project. Kafair becomes a place for me to col­lect things relate to cof­fee and tea.

Yubobo

If you’ve seen Hayao Miyasaki’s ani­ma­tion – Spir­ited Away you must remem­ber Yubaba’s big baby. His name is Yubobo. It is a joke in my fam­ily that my son, Yusuke is sim­i­lar to Yubobo. At one point Yusuke has got a nick­name after the baby. Yubobo blog is, of course, where I keep things relate to baby and kid, from cloth­ing, gad­get, and some cute baby pic­ture or even baby animals.

Yubobo – baby gad­get, gear, and fashion

Michiko Love

Michiko Love is what I refer to as my per­sonal mood board. It is my pan­dora box. I kept things that makes me feel goo in here.

Michiko Love is my Pandora’s box (wink wink)

Pin­ter­est

Lastly.… aha finally… I will visit Pin­ter­est site. Pin­ter­est is a big hit right now. I think this is because it is so easy to use and it looks very nice. And you know what, I am utterly in love with my pinbords!

Well, I’m utterly in love with my Pin­ter­est board. Pls pay a visit and I will love you millions!

Here’s my morn­ing muse inter­net activ­i­ties. Hope you enjoy. Share with me yours, if you like. Next, I will update with you my iPad activ­i­ties too. Things like iPad app I can’t live with-out. See you soon.

Hysteria Siberiana Thumblog

Today, dur­ing search­ing for some images of May Kasa­hara — a pre­co­cious teenager in Wind-up Birds Chron­i­cle (a novel writ­ten by Murakami Haruki). I’ve come across a new blog to fol­low – Hys­te­ria Siberiana. 

Here’s the intro­duc­tion to her blog

Hi. I’m Aziza. And I paint. Murakami. Everyday.

Isn’t that a lovely idea for artists or illus­tra­tors? Pick up a theme or inspi­ra­tion that big enough and that you are pas­sion­ate about it enough to con­tinue draw­ing series of that.

The paint­ings by Aziza are lovely. I found her May Kasa­hara is really spot on. Love it.

Mio Matsumoto Illustration

Just come across the lovely illus­tra­tion from Tokyo based illus­tra­tor Mio Mat­sumoto via I Love Illus­tra­tion Blog

More cute stuff from Korea

When I go abroad theres two places i love to visit. First is phar­macy (the kind that has per­fume and cos­met­ics) I love to see prod­ucts that local peo­ple are using. In some coun­try like Thai­land you will see only med­i­cine and med­ical cos­met­ics. But in coun­try like Korea and Japan phar­ma­cies are crowd with fancy cos­met­ics, big pro­mo­tion, vari­ety prod­ucts. Too me it feels like fun park.

This cleans­ing oil came in 4 col­ors for 4 skin type. I haven’t tried it yet so don’t know if it’s good or not but the pack­ag­ing is obvi­ously awesome.

Sim­ple line draw­ing illus­tra­tion is per­fect for a prod­uct like this.

After that, I have to request myself to stop buy­ing any­more cos­met­ics unless I will have weight prob­lem at the air­port. So back to the sec­ond place I love to visit when I go abroad is sou­venir shop at museum and gallery. The kind that has sta­tionery, greet­ing cards, toys, pen, bags and etc.

Instant gift box from live­work

Greet­ing cards from freesteam

Stand up card from jam stu­dio
That’s about it for my Korea trip. In fact I’m quite ill while writ­ing these posts but don’t want to post­pone blog­ging any longer. So hope you enjoy that.

Too cool for school

A friend of mine whose a big fan of everything-Korea intro­duced me “too cool for school” a while a go. Since I made deci­sion to go to Korea with my com­pany trip I put “too cool for school” shop as my num­ber one des­ti­na­tion. The shop didn’t allow me to take pho­tos inside oth­er­wise I will have a much bet­ter images to share with you guys. How­ever, let’s see what I’ve got to share with you here…

Ive got a new cos­met­ics bag for myself that undoubt­edly sent my old bag from Neo right to a trash bin. Sorry for that.

“Play cheek angel blusher” this high­lighter is a bit too bright for me. But because the pack­ag­ing is so cute I can get­away with that.

“too cool art class blusher” I’ve got this creamy blusher in pink color. Love to use it a lot.

“one day tat­too eye­brow” this is a very cool liq­uid eye­brow liner that won’t dis­ap­pear dur­ing the day. I would want some more of this magic pen.

Facial mask that comes in mousse tex­ture gives a really good expe­ri­ence for facial care. I love to say that it feels like real egg!

I’ve got other stuff from the same shop as sou­venir for my sis­ter and my mom too. If you love to shop cos­met­ics with strong brand­ing, cre­ative prod­uct, lovely illus­tra­tion, qual­ity prod­uct in really rea­son­able price Too cool for school is the must go in Korea.
