Soap Carvings



Written by lainie at 10:52 PM on April 30, 2007 in Arty stuff.

Hi. Haven't had the time. Think I'm falling sick again: also, annoyed that ears are constantly popping with weird air pressure. I can't fall sleep, I've been trying. Just had a vegetarian dinner at home with housemates and permanent resident of our dwellings, Jemufo cooked.

Jerng gave me some books, and a lot of his old stationery the other day. Anyhow, part of the kit included his old wood carving set, something I'd been thinking of purchasing. Happiness....Jemufo came home and saw my new stash, and we rummaged up a soap bar each to carve.

Zedeck eventually joined us, sitting at our new black dining table. He took a part of Jemufo's pink soap, cut out a block, and carved away.


My eyes started crossing after a while, like I was painting a mini. Jemufo carved out two: a horse head, and something that looked suspiciously like lopsided breasts. When that was pointed out to her, she dug away at the Freudian breast carvings a bit more, and emerged with this "mouth" thing that resembles ......

......Well. A vagina. With inverted nipples.

She didn't even realise till Zedeck and I grinned when she held it up. We were all supposed to be working, but carving just sucks the concept of time away.

Jemufo: I'm supposed to be working..You're such a bad influence.
Lainie: Take responsibility for your actions......

I've been saying that to her a lot, cause she used that sentence on me like once, and I won't let it go.

I went for a white rabbit because...I was using white soap. Don't expect a better explanation. First time using carving tools. Was kinda fun, a therapeutic and absorbing experience. Just kinda blank off and shave away soap flakes till something that resembles potential stew ingredient emerges.

I'm starting to....feel like I'm about to black out....

My friend came up with a really cool idea that I really respect. It's nice when you can respect your friend's ideas as well, no? Am really excited about what I've heard so far, though I can't (and won't) mention anything here - but she could totally engineer a lot of change with this. It's cool. I want in.

....woozy from lack of sleep.
coughing.
and tired.
coordination starting to go.

whooo.

gnite.
listening: reza salleh's smokecity cd
feeling: very tired

Ears popping? Sounds like a Eustrachian tube disfunction. Some cold and flu tablets might help. Could be getting caused by sleep breathing problems if you snore. [Losing weight is best cure]. But, I'm just guessing. [I am not a Doctor ... not yet ... and if I do become one, it won't be a medical one!] lol

I like the White Rabbit the best.

One pill will make you taller,
And one pill will make you small,
And the pills that mother gives you,
Don't do anything at all,
Go ask Alice,
When she's ten feet tall.

ya it is, getting poppy ears cause of the flu. i doubt it's caused by sleep snoring, considering i hadn't been sleeping, and i hardly snore while awake.

i actually like the vagina one most, but hey :P
