Mañana....mañana..mañana saldra el Sol

Who cares what they’re wearing on Main street, or Saville Row? It’s what you wear from ear to ear and not from head to toe that matters… You’re never fully dressed without a smile!-- Annie

Last night at the disco,
A guy wearing white plain t shirt with a wooden cross pendant.
A girl pulled the pendant and said, " Eres muy religioso? "
He said, " Pero que dices? Como que yo soy religioso? "
Girl, " No no, solo por curiosidad si tu eres muy religioso , porque llevas la cruz ."
He said, " Pues yo soy creyente, no me importa si yo soy religioso o no.. "
She, " Mola.... "

Me, " Good answer!! "

It's no matter where you are, never be ashamed to tell that you are a believer and one more thing... Act nicely!

Luckily that guy acted really nice in the disco, so he's not giving the cross a bad name.

The End of Adult Summer Camp

Y'all might get dissapointed on my writings stopped in Day 3..
It's just because that I put the laptop in the locker outside the room and Fia and I were arrived Hostel room so late , I didn't think I had so much energy to write that time.

So, yeah the Designboom Mart had ended last week.
i kept on saying that it's more like an Adult Summer Camp, even it's only for a week.

I took many pictures and I think these are pics that show the fun of the friendship there.
We are waiting for our next project together.

Well, many thaaaaanks for Designboom !!!! :D

Day 3 --- Designboom Mart Valencia 2010

And you'll hate me for not showing pictures here too.. But anyway..

It's the 3rd day. The whole participants are no longer talking about
the number of selling.. Let's just see what can we do meanwhile we're
all together.

Today Fia and I, Sara, Teng Teng and Mina (Birthday) are planned to go
to the Feria and just see what's happening there. Also there we met
Anita from Designboom, and Adriana and Anna from Bambada. The Fair
venue is not so big so it's easier to reach up everything in a short
time.

I found the smaller pavillions more interesting cause some of us are
still struggling independent designers, fresh grad artist and also
some Art schools best students which the ideas are still original. Ok,
I can't be sound more Spanish now. Son mas originales. Hahaha.

But then I went to the booth of Lladró and fell in love
all.over.again.. Had a great conversation with the lady who were in
the booth, telling me a little history abt Lladró and she just
directly made me a reservation for 5 to go to the Museum on Saturday..

After lunch and all, we went back to the Mercado and set the table
onn.... The day 3 begins!!

To my surprise, there was this glittery lady came into our booth and
touch this Fake Cera thingy and said, " Ah I love this! Get me this in
black! "
"Well, i'm sorry that we don't have them in black."
"Ah that's too bad....i want yours to be together like this......"
*she shows the diamond shaped of ring just exactly like our ring, but
in metal--gold color* "This is Diane Von Furstenberg."

I asked her contacts and she wrote down and go.
By 15 mins she came back..
"Ah meanwhile you make me the black one.....I'll get the white one. Thank you."

Ah you should see her gestures. It's hillarious.

So yeah, another buyer with a perfect story. I should get wine before
open the table though. That helped me smiling more sooooo.........why
not?

Day plan : The beach.
VAMOS A LA PLAYAAAA!!!!!!!

Yay!

Day 2 --- Designboom Mart Valencia 2010

Oh i'm too tired to take the laptop out from the locker to upload pics..
Today's pretty cool actually, they organized a coctail for a Press
Conference and met several good contacts.

I'm thinkin to make something easy tomorrow as an interactive way to
sell something.. It could be interesting.

Day 1 --- Designboom Mart Valencia 2010

Oh wow, the day is finally came!

I woke up quite early this morning, at 6:15 I checked on my Blackberry and I saw several notifications on Twitter, Yahoo Messenger and Blackberry Messenger given me some words of cheering and supports for today.
Also it made my day to see our pictures appear in the the Designboom.
Never thought that it could ever happened.

We had our technical meeting at 12,
Finally we got a chance to put name on faces.. Well I've seen pictures but never by person.
The first participant that I met was Teng, Canadian who used to live in Madrid and also went to the same Uni like I did last year. We talked, most likely about our school also about our stuffs that we're going to sell..A little while, there came Adriana, from Colombia along she explained on stainless jewelries that she's about to sell.



And this is Miss Anita...
She explained how we should hang and stick our poster, some terms and conditions..
What to do and what not to do.
During that time we got a chance to greet one and another, get to know which our table is.

Don't ask me how nervous I was.






And the table is SET!
Was put them, rearrange it twice and I finally feel good to see how it looked.

All that nervous feeling was hangin until we got our first buyer.
Yaaay!!! A lady came and tried on the Fake Cera Ring and suddenly grabbed it and pay.
What a relief! I walked all over and asked other participants how they were doing, some of them got none, some got one but none's got very good result on day 1.

We're keep saying that tomorrow would be better.
But, do you know that tomorrow there will be a strike day happening in all over SPAIN??
There wont be no public transportation and many of employees refuse to work due to the crisis reasons.

Anyway, I'm pretty confident on it..

People likes our work,
Met several designers from Milan and Sweden.. And they love the goods, so I think it's a good start thou...



Neighbors, Manuele and Carey that happened to be in my right side.











Oh loook how exciting to seeeeee our faces on the catalogue and posters of Designboom!
So yeah I guess this is what i can share for today..
I'd love to see the city and go to the other Design event that be going on tomorrow.

We'll see how can I manage that without the public transport.

Prayers and supports are still needed!!!!!!!!!!

- 1 to Designboom Mart Valencia 2010

Greetings from Valencia!

The whole day has been quite packed and fun.
It's actually my 1st time visiting Valencia as I'd been trying to visit for several of times but I kept failing on that.

Today is Monday, and I had to worked my part time job on teaching a little today that made me woke up earlier than I wanted to.
The weather in Madrid was quite windy yet sunny for around 18 centigrades, I spent my morning running here and there to make some preparations fixed.

My friend Fia, who's about to help us in Valencia decided to catch a train from Madrid ( Atocha Renfe ), so we met there and began our design week journey.

Did I tell you how heavy my luggage was?
This was the exact bags I had when I came to Spain 2 years ago. (Minus the orange bag, as a replacement for my other laptop bag)









I mentioned it earlier that it is my first visit, so I barely know this city and we were actually kinda lost and stranded. To our surprise that people here are very helpful, they kept telling me where to go, showing us, walk with us blocks and blocks away.
I know I'm exagerratin on this, but this what it seen in any fairy tale.


This is our Hostel bedroom, we're staying in Russafa Youth Hostal, and the place is quite chic.
They hang a piece of Frida Kahlo between our bed... Jose, the owner is super nice and it feels quite homy here actually! And .... it's 15 mins walking to the Mercado de Colon, where the exhibition will take place.

And here it is, I GOT SHIVERED!
The place is beautiful..............
It's an honor to be part of this Designboom event.



I'm not sure which is my table, be meeting the committee tomorrow at 12.

Nope, it's not any of the participants work... It's just one inspiring piece from Lladro.
Loving it.

The battery goes low and it's 1:10...
I need to get to bed right now and prepare myself for the big day tomorrow.
