So finally, it's May. Its been a while since I last updated my blog as I've been busy shooting at work due to the fact that suddenly, everyone is explaining their plans for the new year. And it seems that blogger has a new interface for the user. Not used to it, but I quite like its simple design though.
So... Lets start off with what I've gotten recently, actually, last month.
So 3 packages came.
My stuff
One thing were the slippers I were waiting for to bring to the office when my boots are soaked or when I want to take a shower and well... Length wise they did fit nicely, but it isn't easy sliding in, no idea why they made it so short for size 13 which is what I'd usually wear, so I've made a note that if I'm to buy the same slippers again, I'd have to get size 14.

I also got my book which is written by students of Dean Collins which show cases images and explanation about it by Dean Collins and students. After watching some videos by him, I'm intrigued by his teaching. Sadly, he passed away a few years ago, before I even heard of him... But his work will live on.

Also. my forth light stand is here. Interestingly, despite being the same model, the errmmm... Locking pin or something, is different, the stud is also different.

Regardless, it works fine and just the same since I'll be using either an umbrella head or justin clamp on it. So yea... I've recently changed my laptop battery and am now testing it, its not a lot better, but at least I've got mobility to move from one spot to another though I don't have mobile computing capability anymore. Not what my ASUS G73 was designed for anyway.
Yesterday, I made scrambled eggs for the first time. It wasn't fantastic but it ain't bad either, I quite liked it, provided I had more black pepper though...

Next week, I'm going to catch The Avengers with my ITE classmates, so excited to see them again and watch Avengers. We're going to be a little bit slow though but no matter. What else... Oh! Just the other day, I dropped my D3 on the floor when it was resting on my bag. Stupid mistake but well, the extra money spent on the D3 over the D700 was well spent, nothing happened to the D3 and its working just fine! In about a week, I'll finally have enough to get my Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 VRII lens! Like finally! I can't wait! Also, seems like more photography jobs are coming in which is fantastic! I can't wait to share my work here. I'm also thinking of shooting dancers from my secondary school. I got to speak to the respective teachers of the different dance group though...
I also finally found a place to get PVC pipes and pretty much in the final stages of doing my modular light panel. This year would certainly be another interesting year. Also, as of today, I officially have 1 year, 3 months and 1 day till ORD. Can't wait for freedom!
A few weeks ago, I installed a new hardware in my comptuer and my computer crashed again... So I restored everything, and a few days ago, I took time to dismantle my computer and completely cleaned it. Removing dust from fans, components and heatsink. It was a tiring job. I also reapplied thermal compound on my CPU. My CPU temperatures were about 50 over degrees and it has now dropped back to 45 degrees. And now my PC is quiet too! Unfortunately, I dropped my graphics card. Fortunately, it works fine! I also rewired my entire PC especially the power cable and now, it looks so much neater when you look inside it through the side view window. I've updated the caching software for the Crucial Adrenaline and for about a week plus, its been running smoothly withou any issues. I'm very pleased with the way my computer is running now.
Recently, Google released Google Drive which is similar to Dropbox, which I find is pretty interesting and good, they give 5gb starter for free, and its quite affordable for more storage. What else... I guess that's all actually... Will update more when I have more and seriously hoping I can pull off what I want to do (photographically). Have a good day everyone!
