What I've been doing last 5 weeks.


1. In mysore class, intermediate series
working on leg behind head poses (Eka Pada Sirsasana).
As I got an injury on my right hamstring years ago,
I was stucked in the first side.
Both legs behind head (Dwi Pada Sirsasana)
will take year for me to do it alone.


2. Backbend sequence, accomplish my wheel
After few rounds of dropping back,
last month i could finally garsp my ankles(alone).
The pose called "Tiriang Mukhottanasana"
which means intense backbend stretch.
What it felt like is I had to elongate my arms,
legs were super charge, shoulders pulled back further.
It was hard to breath cause my rib cage and lungs were contorted.
And that was one of my goal in my new year resolution.


3. In the studio, photo shoot for online products.
By the end of August, please visit
http://www.poembangkok.com/
for the renovation, there will be a products page which assemble
all the best seller items that are repeated time after time.
It took two months to settle all the detail, pattern, fabric
and production. All the shirts and blouses are made in white.
The model is my assistance (Beau), loss her weigh of this job.



4. My new home office (interior pics come later)
I have finished a lay out plan since the end of April.
The construction started in the middle of May.
And by the end of June I moved in.
There's ton of books to arrange on the shelf.
The decoration is as simple as possible, to control a budget.
Simplicity is the only way to look smart
when we've got low budget.
My idea of designing a space is just to serve all the functions.
