I am Musho / Xinni and I am an artist, designer and programmer. I'm a Singaporean living in California as a designer at Google. I blog about my
art, music, shows, games, beauty stuff, school and a lot of personal events in my life. You will feel awkward reading this if you know me.
Huisuan and I were at a Clementi coffeeshop today, waiting for food to be served to us. I was practicing Katakana (カタカナ) on my phone. This elderly man working at the drinks stall asked if we wanted drinks. As he served the drinks to us, he asked if I was studying Japanese. I nodded. He said then when he was 9, he had to learn to read Japanese during the Japanese occupation. That was seventy years ago. He's 84 years old now. He told us about their cruelty. So many people were killed. When they said 杀! he knows his neighbours will be killed. Huisuan and I listened intently. We could only nod with sympathy. It's so rare for the elderly to open up to us and tell us their stories. I wonder what they feel about the Japanese now. I wonder if they know that many youth, like me, are obsessed with Japanese culture. I do not like strangers talking to me, but I would not mind listening to many more elderly tell me about their past. Now I wish my Chinese wasn't so bad, then I would be able to respond with more than just sympathetic nods.
Computing day My shirts went on sale today. :)
They sold well! To my friends who bought the shirt, thanks for your support. Free soccat merchandise for everyone.
Currently drawing more soccats for them to use.
If I can brighten up the place with pictures of cute cats, why not?! SPEAKING OF CATS. There's a cat called 'Spot' hanging out at COM1 now.
I can carry him into my lap. He's such a qtpai!! Although he almost scratched my crotch once.
Happy tits So I had a meeting with my FYP supervisor today, and we were discussing what to name the project, which is a food logging mobile application.
I suggested 'App-etite', he said, "Oh, that's available?"
So I googled the name
Appetite
It was already taken by a food ordering app. He said, "Try adding a H in front, to stand for Healthy"
So I typed
Happetite
I was like lol, this sounds like Hepatitis. Then I was like, what about Happy for the emotion? So I typed
Happytite
Just as I pressed ENTER, I was thinking "THIS SOUNDS LIKE PORN" but too late And the first result was
Female Masturbation App

I almost considered naming my app after happy tits. SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Board game assets
Making a board game called 'MARRY LAH!' for NM4227 Playable Art.
It was fun :D
Yukata
I want a yukata
This one is nice
Yes very good
yona
I have a new favourite anime/manga. It's called Akatsuki no Yona!!
It's based on Korean historical drama(?) and is about a sheltered princess being ousted from her kingdom and she becomes this badass girl yooo I can't stop talking about this.
And the main guy protagonist is so damn adorable!!!
I'm almost caught up with the manga but I'm trying not to read it because it's so good and I don't want it to end it's like how you try to prolong orgasms YEAH I LIKE IT THAT MUCH
The soundtrack is also amazingly beautiful
I realized I was commissioned one of the characters, Shin-ah, in Cosfest. The girl seemed happy when she got it but if I watched it earlier I could have put in more emotion into the drawing. I guess there is still time to make character keychains!!~ Sadly, the anime is underrated and also panders more to a female audience.
