I have found the Fountain of Youth!

For some odd reason, I have been thinking of monchichis and yebypawka. Yes those monkey thingies.

The Yebypawka

Actually had some painkillers just now, hence am not in the straightest frame of mind. Perhaps quite crooked. I chanced upon this lovely book with a plushy cover. It's called Friends With You Have Powers! WOOOO!

Friends With You Have Powers!

The glitter and weird white ponyo-like spectre flying into a ginormous licorice giant made me a wee bit happy (or high). It's cute! I thought it had something to do with Katamari, you know, the rolling game? It looks Yo Gabba Gabba-ish too, and NO I'm not still in my infancy, I don't know why I've been attracted to such brightly colored stuff of late, probably because... well... I don't know... LIFE IS DRAB! The toxicity in the air is seriously getting worse. My computer is starting to reek of free radicals. Coming to think of it, I think I'm having a fever. Damn you Total-Recall-esque sun! The days of an air-con dome habitat are looming ever nearer...With my friends slowly falling sick, the hypochondriac radar has been switched on. How can we save ourselves?

Where we will all end up

Well how apt that I now see this squeaky clean book in front of me. I open it and instantly I feel as though I've just had a few watts added to my life. Exaggerated maybe but it's filled with pages of whee, happy illustrations and fresh characters. My batteries have just been recharged! What is this prism of childlike phantasmagoria, sunshine, rainbows, and pots of gold?

I like the Malfis chilling at the back :)

An introduction; Friends With You is the Miami duo of artists Sam Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III. They have plush toys, installations, animations and have done ads for the likes of Nike and Coca Cola! I really like their playground called the Rainbow Valley at Adventura Mall in Miami,

Funny white Loch Ness ('0') cracks me up!

as well as the bouncy house at the Hard Rock in Vegas:

Those look like Gacha-pon containers huh. Please do take a look at their site here. They have gallery and a store, some fresh vids too. I pretty like their design philosophy, kind of digging it, it feels good!

"All we want to convey is magic, luck and friendship. I guess you could see it as a club that accepts people from all religions and cultures - each person, animal, even each blade of grass is already part of it. We are all Friends With You."

Now what does this make me feel like doing?
