On a fateful day this week, Miss Puffy and Mr Daniel Tan of Croda Singapore Pte Ltd created a cute little companion for their counterpart who was working on night shift. For those who have worked the graveyard shift before, they'll testify that it is the life of a recluse. Hence the creation of Wilson.
I have attached the front, back and side profile of Wilson. Have you guessed what Wilson is right now? If not read on. It was a painstaking effort in whipping Wilson into the perfect shape and hairstyle. He had a few mishaps on his hairstyling procedure. He was dropped accidentally and became a mass of hair all over his head. He also had to have his head changed to smaller size due to high demand of the bigger head in the lab ( we got a scolding from the lab technician due to shortage).
Why is he called Wilson? Ever watched the movie Castaway by Tom Hanks? He created a head out of a volleyball he found in a crate and the brand was Wilson, hence the name.
Answer : Wilson is a lab magnetic stirrer propped on a plastic dropper. His hair was metal filing we attracted from the base of our reactor pot in the lab. We used a bigger magnet to style his hair and create his sideburns. Lastly, his eyes, nose and mouth were sketched using whiteboard marker =)
Sorry 'bout those crappy photos ( my phone camera is onni 2 megapixel ok)
