Instant Photo Experience

Fun things called instant camera.

I learned this when I visited Japan, 

usually the Japanese love to take instant photos.

They usually stop by at a photo booth, or use their polaroid @ instax.

Innocently, I've become accustomed to their habit too.

:D

Here is some collection with Ohta family.

I was the darkest one among them, the only Malay.

* can you find me in those pictures? :D

*

Found a photo booth when we were wandering in 

a shopping mall - Singapore.

*

Forced my mom to take photos with us, for the first time.

We were quite awkward.

- Melaka, twice!

*

Bought my own Instax several months ago,

for the same reason.

Many ways of keeping photos alive,

in the midst of everything so digitalize.

Ghibli Animation Film

I grew up with Hayao's animated film. I remember watching Kiki's Delivery Service when I was very young. I can remember the tape from our parents' friend in Japan and we watched it over and over again using my dad's VCR player. Although we hardly understood what they were saying, due to some lack of exposure in maintaining our Japanese language knowledge, we can understand the storyline just fine. Afterall, children do learn from observation, and they can relate to the real world quite easily.

One of my favorite character is Susuwatari, a hairy big-eyed dust spirit that floats around in the movie : Totoro. They have also appeared in Spirited Away as the Bath House's slaves, with such long thin legs and eat colored star candies. I was excited by the sight of those star candies, it reminded me of my childhood years. Star candies are called konpeitō in Japanese. 

* Susuwatari eats Konpeito *

I've watched a bundle of Hayao's animated films : Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Laputa, Spirited Away, Grave of the Fireflies - to name a few. Last 2 weeks I bought The Borrower's Arriety's DVD. Ahh, such pleasure. The background illustrations were super overwhelming :

How can I not watch a 2D animation when these beauties are still exist?
