new goods drop tomorrow!
Eeeks! I just got an email from someone saying that the new issue of Venus Magazine has hit the stands (the one with the feature on Anti-Factory in it) and I'm right in the middle of putting new inventory up! So, for all of you who are just visiting me for the first time and wondering "well, this is all great and good, but why's there NOTHING FOR ME TO BUY?" it's because it'll happen TOMORROW (Saturday the 28th) later in the day. Plus, Venus told me the issue wasn't coming out until June, so hey, I thought I was right on schedule! Please check back in 24 hours :)
In the meantime, if you want to add yourself to my email list so I can notify you when the goods drop, please do at: ssyjuco@hotmail.com or just click here...
I haven't had a chance to see the article yet, but can't wait to get my hands on an issue!

sharing and caring
Some fun images of favorite things lying around the house:

Potato plant! Isn't it amazing what happens when you stick a potato in water? It's PURE CRAZINESS!

I got this funny little radio in the Philippines a few years back--it's just a cardboard box with little plastic parts and a famous local singer on the front. I (heart) this! I wish all electronics looked homemade. Wouldn't that be awesome?
This is the little "altar" in the hallway of my house...a funny mix of Catholicism and witchcraft (like a true Filipino hybrid). Most of the witchy stuff I got also during my last trip to the homeland. By the famous Quiapo church in Manila are stalls and stalls of amulets, potions, and witch ladies who make little warders away of evil for you to buy, made out of bits of sewn plastic and herbs. Here lies representatives of two generations of my family (also in true Filipino style, it's customary to divide up a person's ashes to each member of the family so everyone gets a little bit). Besides, who doesn't want granma and great-granma with you always? :)

argh!
I've been so busy working on my final art exhibition for my MFA degree that it's keeping me from posting TONS of new items...Not to mention a NASTY cold I've been nursing for a few weeks now. I'm aiming for getting 'em up before next weekend, so cross your fingers :)
