The Art of Precognition

Too bad this year there's no fancy costumes or crazy ass make ups, instead i decided to be a simple Precog who's made to dream about the future and nothing else. That's all i do.... Neat isn't it? All i need is a white canvas, a paint brush and some nice paint to get my work done. People would actually kill one another in order to see what will happen.

Okay, i think i'm getting out of hand cos Heroes is at it's 3rd season and i just can't wait for the next episode! Argh! hahah.... I wonder if precognition can forsee the upcoming episodes of all the shows i'm watching.. hmmm...

Sman Loves You!

Yeah seriously when i started out photography, i didn't think i would last that long... thought i'll probably give up half-way like most hobbies that i've took up. LOL! But i'm pretty surprised i've gone serious about this hobby and how i've matured through the years (2 years?). Of course i couldn't have done it without the support of my photog friends especially those from Flickr who taught me good techniques and also many others who gave 'moral support'! haha!

This is post is dedicated to you guys and seriously thank you! :D

New kid in the block

Okay so i kinda remembered that my dad used to have this old twin reflex lens oldie 120mm camera. Thought it would be one of those expensive brands like Mamiya or Hasselblad but it turned out to be some China-made 'Pearl River' brand? It still works though, so i'm wondering if i should really get an expired 120mm roll of film to try it out. Then again, money wise... it won't make any economical sense at all to do something foolish. Still... as an experimental photographer, i might (!) give it a try... (",)

PS: Happy Belated Birthday to Chris and Eliza!

Hang on!

Basically, we were all close to living in a world that's hanging on a thread, we nearly couldn't survive that crazy financial turmoil... all because of a few banks and mortgage companies in the US, the rest of the world followed their footsteps into a deep empty hole. Good thing the finance departments in the various nations had some reserves to keep the economy alive... Else how long can we hang on till we finally 'drop'?

Anyway, on a lighter note.... 1st week of attachment was OKAY... nothing much to comment except for the fact that many millilitres or litres (?) of infectious mucus were dripping down my nasal canal throughout the attachment! Can you imagine how i have to face the patients if they were to inquire about anything ? !

Rival Brand Photomarathon 2008

Whoa.... this year's Canon Photomarathon was quite a blast? hahaha didn't really move around as much as compared to last year's though. But it's really fun doing it with my photography mates from school. Especially when most of us are still virgins to the marathon. This shot was taken right after i've taken my final theme of the day. Was quite tired and nothing really inspired me during the whole marathon... LOL well i guess i'll have to work harder next year then !

More shots below...

Photomarathon!

Tomorrow's gonna be a pretty long day for 1000+ photographers in Singapore. Probably one of the craziest event of the year for photography hobbyist like myself and many others. In case you're wondering, tomorrow marks the day of the Canon Photomarathon 2008. That will also be my last chance to 'get' something from the Student Category before transferring to the Open Cat. when i graduate. Pretty stressed up! hahah, but then of course we're all there to have fun and hopefully to know more camera enthusiasts like my buddies below!

Till then, i'll update again when i'm back from the marathon tomorrow!

Notice anything?

So i went to print out 30+ photos from my collection, half of it are mainly from the Australia trip. Since i had this bare/empty notice board (?) for quite some time already, i decided to pinned up some of the Aussie shots up there. Now it looked more occupied and at least it's worth hogging up the space on my orange wall..



And the rest of the photos which may be 'hung up' across/somewhere/against my orange wall...

Weekend to Relax

It's my last weekend to literally relax and enjoy while i still can before my new semester starts on Monday. Scary but at least there's finally something fruitful to do for the next few months before i officially graduate. I can't imagine that this coming semester will be my last one and soon enough i'll be off to the my intensive phase of my life (Serving the Army).

Now let me just calm myself...

When Uke came into the family

If you've noticed my new header on the top, you'll probably find out that i own a ukulele, a rather cheap one as well ($20?). Figured out it'll be easier (?) to learn to play as compared to a guitar. I was right indeed! Managed to "memorise" the chords for the infamous Somewhere Over the Rainbow medley and i've still got a couple more songs which i'm trying to "master". All thanks to Youtube , i don't have to literally spent alot of money on Ukulele Lessons in music schools (if there're any in Singapore).

Heads up people, sooner or later i MIGHT be able to play "Don't Look Back in Anger" by Oasis and "Country Road, Take Me Home" by John Denver. :D

Pulau Ubin

Considering that i've been living in Singapore for almost 19 years already and just last Saturday, that was my first time visiting Pulau Ubin, an off island North East of Mainland Singapore. Nice rural place without the buzzling cityscape we always see.. It's also nice to go there with my photography kakis and at the same time gotta know new people with same interests as me ! :D

Murder & Suicide

I realised nowadays more & more teenagers or any other ordinary people are getting their minds brainwashed by God knows what. Probably due to television violence or some crazy ass game that kills random people. Many of them had ventured out into killing sprees in schools and even shopping malls, hoping to die with honour or what nots. Even in Singapore, suicide cases among teenagers have risen. But sometimes we can't really blame them. It's really hard to live life to the fullest when you have exam stress, domestic problems or peer pressure by bad influences.

What a waste of God's creation.

80th

Couldn't find the time to actually blog about my Grandma's 80th birthday. Well alot of things happened like eating, eating and more eating. One the very night when i arrived, we already had our own family 'banquet'.

I'm lazy to describe the whole event but you can see my Grandma made a grand entrance before the party started. You can actually see my head popping somewhere behind my Grandma. Basically all the grandchildren had to 'welcome' her. Haha...






Notice all the grandsons wore the same thing? Hahah it's like our uniform..


Our family portrait before the guests arrive, some of my cousins were not there though if not it'll be a much bigger group...



And some prove of the existence of Mall of Asia in the Philippines, the place you should not miss if you like to shop!
