Its been almost a week and I haven't updated much so to add on to my last entry actually... I met Rizal last Saturday to do something and then we went to Raffles food court to eat and for the first time, I ate Pepper Lunch and it was GOOD! So yea... Then this week, I finished my IAD shoot the duck game on Monday and I was brain dead to actually complete the whole thing though it was more or less complete though not 100% correct. And I spent my time playing PSP and reading my book on Monday and Tuesday.
On Wednesday, we only had morning class cause apparently, there was a career fair to go to which no one went since we all went home. Seriously, why waste important time going to this when we haven't even graduate? Some may find it useful, but many ITE students don't. I don't since I want to do my diploma first.
Anyway... Moving on! Then came Thursday and in the morning, I actually decided to open my IAD and change my code which worked and it is now 100% right according to specifications! Just that mine looked quite plain but nevertheless, my presentation was better than my classmates though pales in comparison to a properly prepared and presented presentation found in Polys and Universities. And I was the first to present so I didn't know what to do as well since its last minute.
Also, I overheard what Mr Rajesh and Mr Richard were talking about that morning, asking each other if they knew anyone who could take pictures. And I volunteered! So now I get to skip Mr Philip (the dumbass bias son of a gun 3D animations teacher) morning class! To go shoot some signing memorandum thing between Lenovo and ITE West I think.
So that evening. I met Jimmo at Redhill and we went down to Little India Tekka Mall for a "Live! Joe McNally" webcam session. I know it sounds weird but yea... That's what it was, and Joe is actually very down to earth from what I can tell, very very nice guy. Honestly, if I have the $$$$$$ to go for his seminar or better still... His 1 day or even better... 3 day workshop, I would. But it is freaking expensive! But that's to be expected actually... After the event, Jimmo and I went into Little India to shoot a little. We shot for a while then left, not because of anything racist mind you! But because it was VERY CROWDED! Seeing that its Deepavali eve.
Not sure if everyone who reads this is a Singaporean or Malaysian or knows what Deepavali is but in case you don't, have a look at Wikipedia Festival Of Light. So here are some shots taken by my trusty Olympus E-1 and Zuiko Digital 50mm f2, which by the way, I gotta seriously learn to use in low light conditions.
Here are the lights at Little India, its severely underexposed because I spot metered the lights and wasn't paying attention and not experience using E-1 at night but I'll keep on practicing! And don't let the dark areas fool you, there's a lot of people in those dark areas!
Busy busy street!
Not sure what its really called, but its basically hand painting I guess, it was blur and I over sharpened it, kinda sad actually to have lost this image... Oh well, practice makes perfect!
Probably the best image that night since nicely exposed and sharp! Some guy at a place that sells CD
After we got out of Little India, Jimmo and I went to Starbucks to have a drink before heading for home. It was crowded when going home! And we missed the train and had to wait for 6 minutes. Seriously SMRT? 6 minutes for a train at a busy station on a public holiday eve? They seriously need to get down and dirty with everyday commuters.
So today... I didn't do much, I slept quite a lot and ate quite a lot actually. I finally completed my TDA assignment 1 and I cannot render it! So gotta ask my teacher this coming Wednesday. But I did a print screen and this is how it looks like!
Yup! There it is, a simple home with not much furniture. And today I had Ramlee burger and Ya Kun toast! Bought at Tiong Bahru!
Don't let the beef on the exterior fool you, its actually chicken
OMG! It looks so oily... Kinda sinful to eat it now for those who know that I've changed my diet, hahaha!
And here's an image of a clear day sunset since we had haze like a week or so back? Shot with Olympus E-1 and Zuiko Digital 14-54mm f2.8-3.5
Wow! Yet another long entry due to long week. So before I go, here's a promotional video, if you can call it promotional, of Joe McNally's tour to Asia! Enjoy!
Before I hit the hay so I can wake up to watch Ben 10 Ultimate Alien (Yes I still watch it, its the greatest cartoon to date!), I've been listening to this song quite a lot, I Told You So by Carrie Underwood, seriously, one of the very very very few singers that I actually respect (though I'm nobody special but you get the point?). Just something that I feel very strongly about in reference to the music, not the lyrics cause the lyrics just doesn't apply to me at the moment, hahahha. Enjoy and good night world!
