YUANLIN, Taiwan - Hello Kitty has a new job: waving to visitors who enter the lobby of Hau Sheng Hospital.
The reason?
“When new moms feel anxious and lost about how to deal with their new babies, Hello Kitty can make them more relaxed and reduce their sense of discomfort while giving birth,” said owner Tsai Tsung-ji.
Hello Kitty blankets, paintings, lobbies, cribs, elevators, and recovery rooms all are part of the effort to keep mother comfortable. Better yet (or maybe not) are the pastel pink nurse outfits tastefully matched with raspberry-lined aprons and caps.
The Hello Kitty themed hospital has recieved some criticism. Angela Lee, a proffesor at Northwestern Univesity, argues that the hospital “is like a theme park”.
Well, hats off to you, Hello Kitty. (Or is it Dr. Kitty now?)
Welcome back H.Kittyyyyy :) It is given that since I am Asian...I am OBSESSED with Hello Kitty so I only saw it fit to start out this blog with the cuteness that is Dr. Hello Kitty!
I had my shoot with Samantha Collie this weekend! It was such a blast! :) She's such an amazing person and photographer! At first I was really nervous about being in front of the camera and all that, but she was just so friendly and easy going that after a while the nervousness eased off a bit. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone whose looking for a photographer who is AMAZING and so incredibly passionate and detailed about her work. She's so much fun, and she so inviting when it comes to ideas and such! All in all, a m a z i n g! Can't wait for the next round!
Fave Picture So Far! I'll post the rest as she edits them! :)
Lambda Chi's Dukes of Hazzard was also this weekend! It was a blast, as are all of their parties! Decorations were kick ass; complete with haystacks, tire swings, mechanical bull, and live chickens! Awesome jobs dudes :)
