I think I highly dislike Twilight.
I got bored reading it.
I've never gotten bored reading ANYTHING.
(Anyone dare flame me for this? Watch me do it back to you. =.=)

The book, from what I've seen so far from other people I know, tends to give
people (girls mostly) a certain, probable, false idea of what they want guys to be like,
or how guys should be like them.
(Again, please, just see if you dare flame me for saying such stuff)


Anyway, to totally throw my point away, I don't really care.
The characters in the book/show aren't real at all.
I doubt they'd appreciate photography or the outdoors as it is right?
=)


And speaking of photos.
Kate's AF died on me. Stupid.
And somehow, the SD card cover is loose, and messes with the sensor in her.
This will be the second time I have to go to the Service Centre since I've gotten her.
This time, for a real fault.
My AF died on me.
DIED.
AF! (autofocus btw)
Not that I can't live without it but, geez.

  1. EOS 5D
  2. EOS 450D (Kate)
  3. EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS

Yippee.
With the job my mum is giving me, not only will I be able to get my Telephoto, but also my Wide-Angle!!!


Getting either this, the 55-250mm.




Though I'd prefer this option, the Sigma 70-300mm. Check out the pretty lens hood. Haha.
I just put a photo of it on a Nikon cause the camera looks cooler.



And here's my Wide!
The 10-22mm.
I'm so gonna rock sunsets and sunrises with this little baby.


And when I'm satisfied, and my mom gives me similar jobs, hello Speedlite.
Okay, goodnight.
Match to watch.
Fish. I just wasted 20 bucks on my meal at Simpang.
I had a WELL-DONE steak when I asked for medium.
Vomit Vomit.

It's good to know that people tell you you're the best at something.
Even better when you don't let complacency get in the way.
=)








PRCP was great.
Though my last day IS tomorrow.

Woot.







With patience, anything is possible really. I love this shot. I like how the gentle post-wave just curled itself around that big shell/rock in the bottom of the photo. I liked the prescence of the ships anchored off the harbour, and the ports further in the background. Detail Detail Detail. If you look closely, you can spot Mount Faber! Just to the slight above-right of the center of the photo. And also, on the next breakwater in the photo - the one on the top right - you can see two people standing on it!!!!

Okay, okay, I'm not THAT excited.
Easy shot. Bleah.

When you start to not get included, and not know about stuff that goes on, and it's with a place or society or group you are close to, don't be too sad. Go find something else to do. In my case, I have some other area(s) to fall back on, so I'm not really affected by all this.

Not invited somewhere?
Not informed about someone/something?
Not remembered about something else?

Doesn't matter.
There usually is something better waiting, if you're willing to take the risk.
Took me some time to figure that out, with emphasis on the portion on 'RISK'

=)

WAHAHAHAHAHHH

I need to get my batt grip soon.
It'll really help cause I can keep Kate turned on (sounds wrong)
for extended periods on such short events so that I can capture stuff instantly, rather than fiddle with my lens cap and the on/off every single time.

If I DID have the grip now, I could have gotten this fella drinking from the can.
Oh well.

Yup.
Not just people in-charge, or colleagues.
Friends now.
And it wasn't weird at all hanging out with these 3.
Ahah.

I think newly passed out SNs should watch their spending.
Shahidah was so happy to give me a treat at starbucks.
ahaha.
Okay, random.

Eh.
Haven't I already passed PRCP?
I think I have right?
Yeah, probably.
Just unsure of the marks.
Merely awaiting feedback from preceptors?
Yup.

Can I not take cases for the last 9 days?
Lazy lah.

Kate was causing problems yesterday,
Had to really squeeze every bit of my CS4 skill into repairing some of the photos.
Annoying.

This photo was one of those which came out unscathed.

I think Kate isn't used to me shooting RAW yet.
Oh well, with time and (soon) a better lens, and stuff, she'll learn to handle bigger things.


Nice eh?
Of course it is.
I'll allow myself a little praise here and there, from time to time.
Because I have had a lame week, last week, so I guess it's okay.

Eh. Makes me wonder.
Do people really earn so much money taking studio shots?
Cause this certainly looks like one.
*shrug*


Oh yeah. This was what I meant.
It doesn't even look like him.
And it's not just because the skin is too flawless.
Urgh.

Okay, enjoy.

He only wanted us to carry him.
