Just a random selection of 6 photos that "almost made the cut". I tend to spend a whole load of time with my post processing and I figure it'll be a waste of time and effort to not publish photos like these.








p/s: speaking of waste of time and effort...............nah never mind.

Last of 2009

There's this sense of renewed determination that comes with every passing year. A very faint determination which gestates from all the new year hype; eventually after a week or so it'll annoyingly dissipate. Every year I'll cling onto that said determination, hoping to obtain something out of it before it dies off. Makes me wonder what 2010 has in store for me. And I have to admit, I am somewhat excited.

I'd like you all to understand that this is not a declaration of renewed spirits but a measly attempt by yours truly to type out a decent entry (also to sneak in an update while I'm at it) whilst highlighting how monotonic I am and can be. Furthermore, I feel obligated to end this year with an entry that only a select few would actually bother reading (thanks for reading btw). Hence I consider this a job well done.

I have nothing left to say. I don't even have a photo to publish. But I do have some parting words; here's to 2010. Cheers.

Reasons to love the night 3

Was by myself hunting UFOs a few nights ago. Sadly, no UFOs in sight but this is what I've got. People say the night's just a void filled with darkness. I disagree.







Shall we go hunt for UFOs alone? Just you and me, sans-camera.

Pft. Seeing as I am on your Shit List, even if we found some UFOs, you'd sacrifice me to the extra-terrestrials.

Man I never liked making these announcements but for the sake of clearing off some dust bunnies and conspiracy theories that I am well and truly dead, here goes; due to equipment and time limitations, there will be no updates for the next 3 weeks (approx.).

My sincere apologies for the lack of dedication. I admit that I am not up to snuff when it comes to multitasking. But hey, I promise that I shall remedy this issue in due time. Till then, cheers.

p/s: in the spirit of Christmas, I've added a little Santa on my header. And in furtherance of the jolly spirit, I shall leave you with this. Happy Christmas in advance =)

Cauliflower Moment




Melaka was nice. Apart from the scorching weather and the slight neck ache I've acquired from from sleeping on the couch. It wasn't a very extravagant trip but it was nice to be somewhere else for a change. And not to mention, that little yellow box of half-dozen freshly baked Seremban siew pau is the bomb.

____________________________________________________________________________________


Reformatted my laptop about a week ago (after a whole year and a half of usage) and my goodness I actually forgot she's capable of such blistering performance. However, the moment I first ran my Windows Update, Vista just had to throw a total of 99 updates in one shot, resulting in a slight loss of performance. Nevertheless she's running as smooth as a baby's bum now. Yay.

p/s: title's an inside joke if you're wondering

Will be touring Melaka during the weekend. Therefore, lets all hope for 2 things to happen; I'll be able to secure a camera for the trip and for my order to arrive in time (bought a set of goodies, you'll know soon enough). If they both happen, I might come back with some pretty pictures.


p/s: check out my new toy. Getting them to work properly is a bitch as I lose the E-TTL function of the flashgun which requires me to shoot in full manual mode. This is going to be interesting.

I had the camera for 5 days and all I did was stare at it hoping for it to magically provide me with some muse. It didn't.

Damn.

Melbourne



I have a plethora of complaints for Melbourne. From the dry cold air to the price of every single darn thing up for sale; a decent cup of coffee would burn RM12 off my wallet and to think that I am used to paying RM1.50 for a cup, this is definitely recipe for a good old Malaysian outrage.

But I guess this is just me applying the Malaysian bitter sauce all over Melbourne. In fact, Melbourne is a great place to be if I were to look at it from a fresh and neutral perspective. Screw what I'm used to in Malaysia and most definitely screw the conversion rate, this place is awesome and I am saying this because of one simple reason; they have brilliant coffee. And I am not saying brilliant. What I mean to say is the coffee here are pinch-yourself-to make-sure-you-are-not-asleep brilliant.

Call me shallow or crazy but my first trip overseas had left me with a craving so bad, I have to either get myself a full-blown coffee machine or fly over for another cuppa joe. I guess it's the addictive mixture of honest coffee brewing plus the laid back atmosphere. It is simply unbeatable.

With that said, I have a feeling that I will be seeing Melbourne again sooner or later.

_______________________________________________________________________


The photo above pretty much sums up my view on how I feel towards Melbourne. The coffee paired with my increasingly hectic student life was all that I had in mind. There are definitely more happenings in my life but these aren't what I'll be blogging about.

I will be quiet for a while, almost everything in my life is going wrong and I am still in the midst of finding the solution. Till then, cheers everyone.

Reasons to love the night 2






____________________________________________________________________


On a different note, happy 52nd Merdeka to all. I notice that this year's Merdeka celebrations are somewhat subdued, for a good reason of course, but nevertheless it is still a special day for us Malaysians. Am not going to dwell any deeper hence I shall end here with a quote we all should be constantly reminded of amidst all the celebrations and patriotism;


"Always love your country, but never trust your government"
- Robert Novak

Bangsar.

Didn't realise how much I miss it until I saw these photos.

Like the one with the bus stop :)

That bus stop would look much better (and creepier) if there's a girl with long hair and wearing a flowy white dress standing there.

The imagination imagines wonders.
