Alright, another quick update, my pay is in, today there's a lot of people and I had to trace again, thanks to my colleague Wen Lin who stayed back to help me trace. I had to go school today which was super duper boring....

Might be getting my Olympus VA-1 tomorrow, we shall see, than in January get my Metz 45 CL1 than Feb get a new computer case with power, March get my Macbook, it's really gonna be an exciting year!

I'm tired now so yea, good night world!

Such a boring day....

Hey guys!

So today I woke up late and didn't go to school. I went to Vivo and got Nyiyaz and Naaz presents but couldn't get Madinah's one cause the shop was doing inventory... So I came home and well... Just lazed around until now. The design for my DIY softbox is completed and now all I need is the materials and once that is done, will probably do one for the Metz flash, and for my portrait series, probably half will be done in studio and the other half outdoor, and apparently, there's a studio that seems pretty good and it's pretty cheap for weekday before 5.

Tomorrow got to go school in the morning but not going for the afternoon class. Tomorrow work is gonna be such a drag... Can't wait for my off day and to get my Metz flash as well as getting my VA-1 next month. Can't wait for my Macbook either XD. Seriously a lot of things going on next year. After exams time to start my portrait series!!!

Anyway... I got to go sleep soon eitherwise my bio clock will be all screwed up again so good night everyone!!

Work was such a drag....

Hey guys! So yea, today I woke up late for school and attended training for like 2 hours before going home to take a shower and went for work. Was supposed to end at 11:10pm but ended up finishing and reaching home at like 1am. There were a lot of people and a pretty big complication when doing closing.

The customers seems very patient today.... No idea why... Walking home, I realise how quite Redhill actually is and I pretty much like it. I took a shot and it seemed so much brighter in the picture, kinda like the reverse of the F1 races. It may seem bright to us but not the camera, walking home, the area doesn't seem that bright but in the photo, it seems really good. And it isn't as orange as the picture shows but it's pretty orangy.

I had a blackout just now which was really irritating. So yea, that's all for today, skipping tomorrow's morning training and going to Vivo after training tomorrow. Gonna go get Naaz, Nyiyaz and Madinah's present. And I seriously gotta go get a flash light. The black out made me realise that I have no freaking working torch lights at home, lol.

Good night people!

Last day at home

Hey guys! Yea, you read right. 4 days at home not stepping out. I wanted to step out today but decided not to as it will be like just a short while, not worth travelling.

Tomorrow will be going out though, since I've got to work and got programming in the afternoon. Gonna be really boring tomorrow. I'm so gonna take a long off... Working only on sundays. Bad news is money is gonna be very little, good news is, more time to work on my photography which the pay will be so much higher than my current's job pay. More time to study too...

I'm done with my paper model of my softbox MK I and it's almost perfect, just need to make adjustment to the flaps, find the suitable materials and I'm in business! Tomorrow probably while traveling will be making the adjustment to the MK I and MK II will be out. Hopefully it works!

Woohoo! Chong Min is coming home tomorrow night! I have no real idea why I'm so excited... Probably just missed her... Oh well...


Actually... That's all for today. Will update more tomorrow! Good night everyone!

3rd day in the house

Hey guys! Before anyone asks (if anyone asks anyway), no I am not confined in the house, it's just that it was Christmas eve and Christmas day, there isn't anywhere I can go that wouldn't have a lot of people and today because of the rain, I didn't go out either though I initially wanted to go to Vivocity to get Naazira, Madinah and Nyiyaz's presents but I guess I might go there after school on Monday since I've got programming and there's a direct bus there.

Anyway, what I did on Christmas day is... Nothing... Yes, really, I just watched TV, eat, watched movies and was on Clubsnap the entire day. More or less the same for today except I researched on soft boxes since I'm doing my portrait series for fun, learn, port folio as well as for my business. I also finally managed to install Google Chrome on my desktop, which is not because I can't solve the problem till now but rather... I'm too lazy to do it till now cause I use Safari. I also took a look at the Google Chrome OS. It seems interesting and I guess it worth keeping tabs on what Google cooks up. In the IT world, companies I keep track are Apple, Microsoft and now Google. In the photography world... Well... Most brands actually since I use Canon, Olympus, and Mamiya but I also keep a look out on other things as my mentor taught me, there is no one system that can do everything. Even computers the same thing, my own PC is mix of different computer parts. Even computers from companies like Dell, Acer, Lenovo etc.

I didn't update yesterday since there was hardly anything to update. Anyway, regarding the softboxes, I did make 1 out of an old shoe box which is seriously unglam. I made a beauty dish which still is alright because I sprayed it black. All the DIY softboxes that I've seen so far are either hard to make because they require drills and really really accurate measurements, seriously ugly (not really the point) or the materials are really hard to find in Singapore. And lo and behold! Today, I had an idea, I don't know if you can call it brilliant though... I have an idea of how to make a fold able softbox and the materials are more or less easier to find. It isn't cheap as cheap as most others but still significantly cheaper than buying from makers like Profoto though I'm not sure if they do make those compatible for hot shoe flashes. Mine is most probably gonna be using foam (learnt from the book of lowbudget shooting), something like a opaque cardboard and quite a lot of velcro. I personally hate velcro cause its really noisy but since most likely it's just gonna be noisy when assembling or disassembling so doesn't really matter. I have to precise of the measurements though, but nothing engineering. Have to make sure its light as well as some flashes like my Olympus FL-36R and FL-50R are not built to be that tough, not so worried about my future to come Metz 45 CL1 though.

Anyway! The new year is about to come... Time sure flies as you grow older. What have I done this year... I don't really remember... What are my goals for next year? Pass my final year exam and finish year 1 and get into multimedia in year 2. Do more freelance photography work and become a better photographer. Do my portrait series. Those are my goals I can think of right now.

I'm really excited about the new year since I will be getting quite a few new stuff. Like:

A Macbook white to replace my dying ASUS A8Je which has served me well for almost 3 years which I run pretty hard on. My Macbook white will be custom which is especially important since I'm an IT student, I need to run Windows OS on it which many people don't so gotta upgrade the HDD, and upgrade the RAM so that it runs better with photoshop as I do photography. I still wonder why people get Macbook just cause it looks cool and don't really care about performance (though performance wise, it is good)



Olympus VA-1 which I will use in my portrait series quite a lot, since I hate using live view which drains a huge amount of power.



Metz 45 CL1 which I'm gonna use as my workhorse for events and hopefully weddings in the coming year



And no pictures for the next 2. Honda Phantom motorbike if I can get my license since my school is moving. Will be good to have a bike. Now still at 2.01 so I wonder when can I get my license. As well as building an entirely new DIY Mac Pro. It will not have the Apple logo but it will run both Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard as well as Windows 7 Ultimate, featuring a Quad core 2.66 GHz processor, 4 HDD, 4GB RAM in a case which I have yet to decide on. It will be approximately 1.7k when done. Might be more, might be less. But still cheaper than the equivalent Mac Pro.

Today's entry is one of the longest I've written in a really long time. I shall end here as I don't think anyone really wants to read so much. Tomorrow going down to art friends to look at materials for my DIY softbox so good night and take care friends!

Merry Christmas!

Hey guys!

First of all, a Merry Christmas to everyone! And to all Christians, Catholics and similar, let us remember that today is the day 2009 years ago the saviour is born!

My God, I sound like some religious guy,lol. Either way, today didn't go out or do much. I took more photos of my freedom and basically was loitering in Clubsnap as well as playing PSP. That's about it. Anyway, I'm tired now, I know it's a short entry but I'm tired and nothing much to do so yup, good night everyone!! Merry Christmas!!!

Peaceful Wednesday

Hey guys! Here's another update! So today morning I went to school for C++ programming training. It was tough. C++ was never easy for me and we've decided on doing a scientific calculator for the competition. Chances of winning are more or less down the drain, but doesn't really matter, my passion lies not in programming or IT but in photography. IT is just something I can do and do pretty good or fairly well.

So in the afternoon, I met Zana and Madinah and we went to Cathay's Starbucks where Zana works so that she can pass her amp. Then we went to Bugis to get Zana's Paramore concert tickets which Madinah wants to go but has no moolah and her dad doesn't allow her. I feel bad for Madinah actually but that's her life, I can't do anything.

After that we went to Banquet at Raffles Hospital to eat after which we went to City Hall to meet Yusuf. We went walking around Marina Square and chilling at Mac for a while before going home. I also found out that Cathay Photo doest carry the Olympus VA-1 vari magni finder priced at $320, I'm gonna get it after I get my Metz 45 CL1. Zana took a cab while the rest of us took the train home. We went to HMV to look at CDs and I finally got Hello Hurricane from Switchfoot.

So yea, that's about it for today. Loads of thing to look forward to... My studio and outdoor portrait series of friends which will be used for the business I'm starting with my dear Vivian. Using the Metz 45 CL1 since it is my first Metz as well as the first hammerhead flash I'm using. And the vari magni finder which will allow me to compose low angle shots without breaking my back and saving power from not using live view. My E-1 cannot use live view so it helps as well. I guess I'm more or less old schooled lol. The new year would be an interesting year, attachement, finally getting my bike license and bike and my Macbook as well as building my own DIY Mac Pro. Getting started on my car practical, shooting more events as well as doing more stuff on Clubsnap. Release of new Olympus cameras. The year I turn 21 and finally become a young adult. My Clubsnap title becoming either Senior Member or Moderator lol.

Well... Shall end here, good night people!

Nothing Special

Hey guys! Quick update since I got to go to school tomorrow morning. I was supposed to go for training but I didn't go cause didn't feel well. In the afternoon, my friend Carol called to asked about some stuff about photography then asked me to go to SP to shoot Moberly with her. So we both went to shoot and she treat me eat KFC, lol. The shots are gonna be used in a magazine or pamphlet or something like that. Nothing much to shoot at Moberly actually so yea, my pictures aren't the best.

After that she sent me to Tiong Bahru and we drank at Ya Kun and chat until she went home and I went up to GV to help my colleague install some stuff and changed the language pack to Mandarine since she's from PRC. So my friend Carol borrowed my FL-50R and 50-200 for a shoot. I came home and showered after finishing my IT "job" and waited for my old friend Sean to come pick up my 7-14. Cause he's working in some architectural job and needs an ultra wide angle lens. I saw his E-510 and OMG it's worse than my aunt's E-500, the way they use their camera is seriously 0.0. We chatted for awhile since we haven't met each other in quite some time.

I came home and chatted with Vivian and Melanie. And since I'm doing a new portrait series which will be used in my port folio for future jobs as a freelance photographer as well as a photographer for my business with Vivian and right now I've got 4 models. They are Vivian, Melanie, Hilwah and Justina. I personally know Vivian and Melanie, Justina I've met before but I don't believe I've ever met Hilwah. Need to find more people to practice and to increase my portrait port folio.

Anyway, the studio only has backdrop,it's a small room so the flashes I have should suffice. My coming Metz 45 CL1, Olympus FL-50R and FL-36R. Might need to borrow 1 more flash and I've gotta find materials for DIY softboxes, striplights and snoots which will be what I use most often. If Jimmo and Kenneth both have FL-50Rs, probably can borrow from them instead XD.

Well... That's all, I'm gonna sleep now since I have more or less a long day tomorrow. Morning C++ training in ITE Dover and movie and lunch with my kids in the afternoon. Good night world and good day to everyone!

P.S: I miss Chong Min quite a lot, no idea why, probably she's been encouraging to me the past year despite not talking often

Programming,pizza and tired

Hey guys! Yea, so today there was Nokia Challenge C++ training. Was at Nanyang Poly from 9:30 till 4,tomorrow will be the 2nd and final day. From 9 to 4pm. I kinda had no life today.Entire day was on clubsnap kinda moderating it. And I was craving for pizza so i advance ordered my pizza before leaving there and coming home.

There are 5 polys in Singapore namely Singapore poly,Ngee Ann poly,Temasek Poly,Nanyang and Republic poly. I used to study at Singapore poly, I visited Ngee Ann a few times in my secondary school days. I went to the new and old Republic ply and today was my first time in Nanyang,never been to Temasek. Of the 4 I've been to,Nanyang seems to be the biggest and has the weird architectural structure I've ever seen. The first floor is known as the second floor,the doors are the same as the wall which makes it confusing.

Also, the school of IT in NYP smells like a hospital which kinda disgusted me cause I hate hospitals. Anyway, I came home to have my pizza and well... I'm so tired that I turned Night At The Museum 2 and rest on the floor,end up I fell asleep until about 10:30 after which I took a shower. I'm gonna hit the hay soon and that's all for today actually. So good night world!

Hectic day at work

Hey guys! Yea its me again

Lets start with this morning, I watched TV,eat and eat and eat and watch loads of TV,that's all for the day,lol!

At night I went to work which was pretty hectic, training new guy as well as cleaning and serving. We all helped each other a lot, I did floor, box office as well as candy bar. Lots of people today! All watching? Avatar in 3D. I went up to the projectionist room and the door was closed so I had to wait for the door to be opened. I went up there to help the projectionist move the film because Avatar is 2 hours 40 minutes long so the film is pretty thick which means its heavy. And I saw the 3D projector for the first time. It looked pretty cool,but not cool enough that it will make me go like "OH MY GOD!!!WHAT A EFFING BEAUTY!". People who know me well enough that things like a Mac pro will make me go like "wah! So nice! I wish I have one!". Actually.... I don't recall a time that something made me really excited. Probably the E-3 replacement XD.

Anyway, from what I understand, the 3D projector is something like a computer, and it downloads its movie from a server and plays it as such, no CD, no film, no nothing, pure digital. I might have gotten it wrong though so yea, that's my understanding so far.

Got C++ training tomorrow and I'm still awake... Lol... Gonna hit the hay soon. I'm kinda nervous organizing the Four Thirds Kopi Session for the first time. It will be basically on the micro four thirds body with the four thirds lenses as I realize that quite a few people are looking for suitable lenses to fit their micro four thirds body. So they have to resort to regular four thirds lenses. So I thought, why not? So yea, it's on the 8th of Jan 2010, hopefully it will be as good as the one organize by my mentor Clifford.

I realize something today at work. I miss quite a number of people, even people I met yesterday, last week. I miss my brother Hong Yao, Ian, Chong Min, my "cousin" Anterin, my kids in ITE, my brother and sister in KL, Jwen and Badrinna, Regina & Justin. Vivian too! I remember I miss a few other people but can't think of them now...

Anyway! I've gotta sleep soon. Gotta wake up at 7:15am. I gotta give my E-1, PEN EE2 and E-P1 some exercise soon! LOL! Good night world!

Finally! Action!

Well... Not really action actually but well, I did get out of the house. Today had bike prac 2.01 again, my bro and I did better than the rest this time but failed, lol. So today there were 4 people repeating including my brother and I. So one of the 2 guys has a very bad habit of checking back (for those who don't ride bikes, before riding off, we have to check behind for vehicles) at the same time as my brother, and in the end, has to wait for my bro to go off before riding off. The other guy has a very very bad habit of stopping very very close to the vehicle in front.

I had to go to BBDC alone today by the way, but my bro sent me home. We went to Salvation army before going home though. I came home and slack before going to Bugis to meet some guy on Ebay to buy my SD Freedom Gundam. It's so small and seriously weird yet still cool. I came home and well... I don't really remember but the time spent was good. Oh! When I was walking home from collecting my Gundam, it was raining. So I was wet and some auntie wasn't afraid of me when my arm rubbed against her arm. She was so engrossed in seeing her 4D paper she didn't bother to take notice of me walking. And didn't seem too bothered by the fact that I'm wet.

I walked towards the lobby and I saw the lift doors were gonna close so I just pressed the button and the life door opened. Since it was on the other end, it was a few seconds before I reach there. As I was reaching the front, the lift doors started closing and the 2 women in the lift saw me but none bothered to press the door open button for me. So I slid my hand between the doors and smack the part that causes the door to open really hard and I just walked in like nothing happened. Singaporeans can seriously be very unhelpful. That's about it for today I guess. I'm gonna sleep soon as my eyes are itchy and I've got work tomorrow. So good night and take care everyone!

P.S Chong Min left for Ipoh and I hope she had a safe trip there.

Another quiet day

Hey guys! So yea, today was pretty much another quiet day, edited photos from dawn till dusk. Now uploading them on facebook, slacked in the afternoon by watching Gundam,lol.

So yea! That's all actually. My secondary school friend Chong Min is going to Ipoh tomorrow. Wish her a safe trip there and back. What else... Tomorrow morning having bike lesson 2.01,last lesson was also 2.01 so what the hell right? That's about it actually for today. I'm finally finished with the photos,whole day having an irritated throat so yea. Guess will be ok tomorrow. So I'm gonna stop here and probably gonna hit the hay soon. Good night world!

Another quiet day

Hey guys! So yea, another quiet day has gone by. Edited more photos, went to school for C++ training which by the way,is a real drag... I worked, really tiring as there was a lot of people. That's pretty much actually. So yea, hope I have more stuff to talk about tomorrow. A random thought occurred last night, who is worse? A man who has everything but is not happy or a man who has nothing and isn't happy. So yea. Good night people!

Wednesday, December 16, 2009

Nothing much...

Alright, today nothing much happened, edited photos and work that's all. Really nothing right? I actually am wondering now... How am I to survive the holidays. My God!

Back in Singapore! Day 3 Pangkor and KL,Day 4 KL!

Hey guys!!

Truly there is no place like home. Especially Singapore is the best place to live as far as I'm concerned. Second best place to live is Hong Kong. Anyway, on to business.

Third day in Pangkok, we woke up for breakfast and packed our bags before leaving Pangkor for mainland Lumut,previous entry is Ipoh but by right is Lumut, at least I think is Lumut. So we drove from Lumut down to Kellie's castle, google it. Kinda eerie and Zana felt cold. It was about to rain so God knows but it did look very eerie. After that we drove to some water fall, it was nice and slippery, too bad it rained so I didn't take off my shoes, end up I almost slipped a couple of times but oh well. I was slow so didn't really fall off. After that we ate somewhere before supposedly driving to Malacca but since the drivers were tired, we ended up driving down to KL. We got to KL at night and had dinner after checking in to some hotel known as Kowloon Hotel. It was eerie as well. Everyone had dinner except Zana and Madinah as they weren't feeling well.

Forth day, Rizal and I woke up pretty early due to the noise from the early morning traffic. We watched movies before going down to KFC to buy breakfast. After breakfast, we all checked out and drove down to KLCC to shop until 2 before driving home. So yea, now I'm back in Singapore, nothing much has happened.... Yet.... Will update again tomorrow, pictures soon. Got work tomorrow and very tired now so... Good night world!!!!

Monday, December 14, 2009

Day 2 in Pangkor!!

Hey guys! I had a pretty good sleep though I'm still tired. So this morning my dear Zana woke me and Rizal via the phone at like 7am. I only had like 5 hours plus of sleep and Rizal had longer. So I told her we're going for breakfast at 8 and she left us to sleep. for another 55 min. At 7:55 on my handphone, she called to wake us up, and as I hang up the phone and wanted to lie down for awhile more, her cousin called, all in under 5 seconds. My God, how coincidental? So end up me and Rizal got up and went for breakfast. Nothing much to eat for me so I ended up eating a bit of rice, a lot of hot dog and 3 pieces of toast with jam.

After breakfast we rest for a while before leaving for the beach where most of the family went swimming and I went to take some pictures. Zana, Madinah and Zana's cousin in law went on some boat ride. It was funny but I was worried about Madinah cause she ain't feeling well. A couple of hours later. we made our way back to the hotel and we had cup noodles again and watched movies till night fall.

I fell asleep halfway and Zana took MY E-P1 and recorded ME snoring, wth right?lol. So later, everyone went for dinner except for Rizal and I as I had stomach ache. After watching movies, we went down to buy dinner which was the burgers i smelt yesterday. Ramlee burgers. Pretty nice actually! I had 3 and GOSH! They were delicious. I miss eating meat actually lol. That's pretty much for today. Rizal is already sleeping. Guess he's pretty tired actually. So I shall be on my way to sleep soon too. Good night people! See you guys back home soon!

Saturday, December 12, 2009

Day 1 in Pangkor!!!

Hey guys! Turns out there is internet at the hotel I'm studying. So anyway... Updates! Starting from friday having programming and after school, I went with Rizal and his gf to watch New Moon which was pretty lame. After the movie we ate at Mr Teh Tarik. I went home and packed the remaining of my stuff and left for my final TCSS session with my mentor and the other four third guys. I left at 8pm and while waiting for the bus, I realize I forgot to take my camera batteries. Luckily I had spares so now I'm running on the spares. So we met and left for Ipoh at about 10:30pm and hey presto, we're on our way to Ipoh, driving almost none stop for I believe to be over 600km until we got to where I am at 10:30am.

Right now Rizal is sleeping and I'm still awake blogging. Gonna sleep soon. So we got here and went to the beach and Madinah wasn't feeling well so some things happened that I will not elaborate because it isn't nice. We went back and rest before going out to have lunch. After lunch we came back to rest and showered before literally going on a movie marathon which only lasted 2 and a half movies before Rizal fell asleep. Can't blame him since he's tired and his body doesn't act like mine. It's cold in the room now and I'm literally sitting under the freaking air-con. It is freaking dark outside and I'm waking up at 8am for breakfast. So yea.... Good night people and see you tomorrow for another blog entry. Good night!

Thursday, December 10, 2009

Day before Ipoh

Hey guys! So yea... Tomorrow is the day I'm leaving Singapore. Without my dearly beloved computer... Actually internet, since I'm bringing my laptop to Ipoh. So yea, I'm all packed up except my laptop and some other stuff,that one gotta wait till tomorrow.

What did I do today? School. Than I met Ian and we both went to Orchard to Nokia service center. And I found out that the Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard costs just SGD$48 for a retail version. RETAIL, NOT UPGRADE DISK! What the hell.... After that we went to Bukit Mearah Library before going to Tiong Bahru to have our lunchner (combination of lunch and dinner) before going home. I took a shot, as usual its at the bottom of the entry. But basically, that's it for today. So yea,I'm logging off now so I can sleep early tonight. Good night people!

A quick update

Heys guys! Sorry for yet another quick update but hey, at least I'm blogging. So today there was only life skills and lucky me I won $5 bucks,lol. So after school Rizal and I went to Vivo and had lunch and we bought books,more specifically I bought books,one for me to read and another which is Rizal's christmas present. After that we left for home but Rizal actually left for SP to meet his gf before heading home. So after getting home and resting for a short while. I went to work and it was pretty boring actually. Came home and blogged. That's about it and oh! I watched Naturally by Selena Gomez which is actually more or less someone leaked or accidentally showed it. Eitherway the fans benefit. Will be packing my bag tomorrow. So yea, that's about if, will blog tomorrow so till then, take care people!

P.S: I just found out where the photos go after I upload them to blogspot,wth,lol!

Tuesday, December 8, 2009

3 Days to Ipoh

Hey guys! Yea! It is 3 days to Ipoh trip. Though Chong Min tells me there isn't much there, but since I've NEVER been there before. It will be more or less an eye opening experience. At least.... I hope it will be....

Anyways! On to business! Today had IT department end of year party and honestly speaking... Apart from Zana and Mr Christian singing together which was pretty good... It was probably the worse performance I've ever seen in my life as a photographer and during my days in AVA club. Really bad.... So I shot like 108 shots (which is really little considering I usually shoot 200 over per event). Finished editing them. Will show a picture of Zana and Mr Christian singing together. They seem to have great chemistry together XD.

So after school Rizal and I went to SP to wait for his GF before we left for home. After getting home, I slacked for a while before grabbing the lenses and going down to Olympus to return them. After that, I came home and basically watched Gundam Seed again. So yea. Anyway, tomorrow 4 hours of network theory is canceled. Effectively making this week like a 2 day week. So yea. 3 days to Ipoh... Well... 2 days now actually. I shall end here tonight with the picture. Good night and take care my dear friends!

Yet another quick update!

Hey guys! Today will be another quick one, seriously making a bad habit of quick updates. Anyway! Today had phase test which was tough cause I didn't study and didn't fully understand. I assure you! It will not happen during exams!

So after phase test, Rizal and I lazed around waiting for Mr Christian who happens to be at a meeting so Rizal and I left for SP to have lunch as well to wait for this girlfriend to finish exam. But turns out she finished and went home. Only when she got home did she message Rizal, it was kinda like a FML moment. So anyway, I came home to get my cameras and went down to shoot videos and pictures. Here are 2 pictures, will show the video once it's done. Got to shoot the IT Department year end party tomorrow so I'm off to my precious floor (which is my bed for those of you who do not know where I sleep) Good night!

Another quick update

Hey guys! Pretty tired so here's another quick update about my life. I got my MMF 1 adaptor today! YAY!!! I can now use my exsisting four thirds lenses on my E-P1! A picture at the bottom is shown to entertain you. So after I got the adaptor, I took bus 61 to Roysten's house and tried to fix his network only to have to run down to west mall to get a wireless router and going back to his place to fix it. His dad gave me a ride to Tiong for work. Feels so quiet today. That's it for today. I'm tired so I shall blog earlier next time. Good night people!!!

Sunday, December 6, 2009

Outing to the zoo!

Hey guys! Today will be another short entry cause I'm tired and look at the time! LOL! So today was supposed to go Roysten's place but due to the rain, postponed to tomorrow. Went to the zoo with the four thirds community and been shooting with 300mm all day long. Pictures at the bottom. Had dinner and we all chatted till 11pm at Bukit Timah. Thank you Clifford for the book, the tablet, your teachings, everything! Good night my friends!!

Friday, December 4, 2009

Godzillas in my house

Hey guys! I know it's late and I should PROBABLY be ASLEEP now but I took my shower not that long ago so still can't sleep. Continuing from where I left off in school. Today had network security practical and computing maths test. I think I more or less get an A, but I'm sure I got a B. Anyway... After that we all went for lunch at canteen after which my mentor smsed me telling me to get a bag to carry the 2 lenses Zuiko Digital 90-250 and 300mm prime lens. So I went home, changed my bags and went down to Olympus. My mentor and I collected a PEN E-P2 and the 2 lenses.

After taking the gear I had to head back to school for C++ training after which I left early for work. There was a lot of people today. Majority of them watching New Moon. So after work I went home with the 2 lenses and 3 bags forgetting my laptop at work. So after getting home, I had to run back to get my laptop. So yea... Now I'm home,I'm tired and lazy so I will post pictures of the 2 "legendary" lenses. Good night people!Sweet Dreams!

Another late entry,lol

Hey guys!! Haha, funny story. I forgot to post another entry last night so now I'm doing in class. I am freaking hungry now that's why I'm doing it, but apparently it's not taking my mind of hunger so anyway. Yesterday you guys know what I was in class. So after school I went home to slack since I had to work. I went to work and it was pretty quiet,but the people who came were apparently very rich. Giving me loads of $50 bucks most of the time. No idea what's with them but whatever.

After work I went down to the station to meet fotophilic to get something and I went home. I got home and had my dinner, and watched some HK drama which I can't remember the title. It was pretty nice. I took my shower after that and slept. This is what I really did... Kinda boring ain't it?

Anyway, see you guys tonight after work!!!

Late entry

Hey guys! Seems like I have always been doing late entry. I always forget to update so yea, now is for yesterday's entry.

Yesterday I had programming which I didn't do much. since there was nothing much. After that we had breakfast then computing maths. We didn't do the test, but we basically just went through an example test paper and it was very easy to the point that Rizal and I can actually do it with ease. And we didn't revise. So I've gotta revise to make sure I can pass.

After school I went home and took a very very hot shower because I had a runny nose. After turning on the A/C and relaxing a while. Mike smsed me saying that the PEN EE2 can be collected at Sim Lim Tower so I went out not long after getting home. Dumb right but well... These things in life can't be helped. I went to KFC opposite Bugis Junction to buy for my sister first though. Walking there I accidentally have my arm ermm... slide against an auntie's arm. and she gave me the "eee...." look. And come on.... I haven't even start sweating. So I just ignored her and bought the popcorn chicken before meeting Mike. After that I walked towards the bus stop and had to jog after the bus. It was tiring with my injured knee, but I didn't want to squeeze during peak hour. Getting home I basically downloading some more movies that are lost with the formating of my computer. That was about it actually.

So yea.... See you guys tonight!
