Hello, hello!
I’m starting this year off with a clean slate. I’m working on the ‘about’ page of this site… it’s a work in progress, so please bare with me. Actually, I wanted to get Creative Wanderings up and running earlier, but somehow real-life always gets in the way. But here I am, launched and ready to go for 2010! If not for January 2010, at least for Chinese New Year

I’ve decided to start this new blog as a broader way to document my interests, while including inspiration, experiences, and anything else that I find notable. For now, I may occasionally update my Posterous blog, but have left Dine. Travel. Design behind. Don’t worry, you can still access the blogs and my previous posts at their respective locations, both listed on the side panel under “previous blogs”.

Now, it’s finally official! I quite my full-time job of 2+ years just two weeks ago and I’ve been getting things here in Boston organized so that I can tackle the next big adventure. I know, I know.. Am I crazy?! When everyone is thankful to have a job and the economy is only beginning to reshape itself, I’m making an incredible move. Nonetheless, I’m not yet packed, but more than ready to go!

In about a week, I’ll be leaving my hometown of Boston, Massachusetts for Beijing, China (via a 7-day pitstop in Vancouver for the Winter Olympics atmosphere)! I have no idea what to expect; and I’m both nervous and extremely excited for the change that I’ve been needing since graduating college. I’m ready! At least as ready as can be. It won’t be completely foreign to me, having spent a summer in Shanghai 4 1/2 years ago, and visiting grandparents in Hong Kong each year, but this is not just a trip, we shall see what happens. I’ll be going to the other side of the world on a student visa to take an intensive Chinese language class at a respectable university in Beijing. I look forward to the culture shock, new environment, people, and experiences. More importantly, I’m very excited to have the time to work on some personal projects, take more photographs, tackle some freelance design and contract work, while documenting my design (and other) insights here!

Visa: check. Plane ticket: check. As soon as I pack, I’m off and ready to go!

Please come back for a visit to the site again soon for more updates. Or subscribe via RSS at the top right corner. Cheers!

Hi people! Please check out my new blog :) And follow my adventures and other curiosities.

aaah.. deliverer of ideas I am :)

Happens all too often.
Ideas need time to be massaged and allowed to percolate to become great. Blue sky thinking is where great ideas come from.. not living w/in restraints :P

The government of the city of Puebla, Mexico have recently launched a women-only taxi service called Pink Taxi.

The vehicles are driven by women only, and are designed to make women feel safer and protected against sexual harassment and robberies. Each car include a beauty kit, GPS and a stolen vehicle recovery system. It is also an innovative idea to employ housewives, as it will generate 105 jobs in the city .

Hmm.. but are there smarter ways to equip and educate women on being safe?

Odd. Interesting...
I suppose there's a need everywhere and product solutions as well..

The photos show custom male pleasuring device heads featuring the vaginas and anuses (or should that be ani, anii?) of a number of female porn stars. The future perfect link in all of this is: in mainstream societies today what body parts are by default measured? And why? And as technology becomes increasingly wearable what other body part measurements are we likely to see mainstreamed? What value added services might the known measurement of celebrities, porn or otherwise then enable?

For example when will custom molded ear pieces become mainstream? And in turn how will this affect usage behaviour in particular device sharing?

On a similar note: CNN Health says that sex is good for you.
