Back from Melaka

Melaka is quite a nice place to be in... just walking around the streets and trying out all the good food there... not to mention the nice photo opportunities that are available lol...

Twitter blog? lol

I realise that my new blog posts are pretty random... much like how Twitter is used haha... Maybe I should cut down on my lengthy posts and just post short paragraphs about what's on my mind at the moment hahaha... makes for easier reading too!

Just got reminded of a roller hockey team that a bunch of kids staying in Hougang almost formed when I was in primary school (and was the group that I roller-bladed with).

Swift snakes was going to be our name ahaha... Oh well... good memories =)

Individualisation of movie-watching

This post doesn't really have anything to do with the above title hahaha... I was watching the new Japanese movie "Handsome Suit" and realised this movie actually takes me back to my resolutions for 2009.

Go watch the movie! haha... Its damn slapstick in the first part, but once you get to the end, come back to my blog and read my previous post on my 2009 resolutions haha... You'll get what I mean.

Be less judgemental.

A sick man is an angry man haha...

Just finished working on a project on Saturday night/Sunday morning. I think the team worked for 12 hours straight (except maybe a short break for dinner). It didn't help that I was suffering from a cold/flu hahaha...

Ended up throwing #$$@%*&$#%^%@!@ language around ahaha... Can't help it haha...

But this week should be better hahaha....

從新開張！Re-opening...

Time to sweep the dust off and bring out the beers! ahahaha...

It's time to crank up the gears and get this blog going again.

Watch this space.

So long to 2008~ G'day to 2009~

The last day of the year is upon us~ It's been quite a year ain't it? I spent a good first half of 2008 in Taiwan, which was a really interesting and enriching experience.

It's almost 6 months since I arrived back in Singapore and I've completed yet another semester in NUS. Hopefully the coming year will be a good one for me and all my friends and family.

Resolutions? Nah... I don't really have a habit of making resolutions hahaha... but for 2009 I would wanna be less judgemental and build more self confidence LOL

Oh yeah! And I want to go on a nice, relaxing graduation trip haha... whether it be in the Asian region [Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar, Thailand (not really Bangkok) or in Europe (Austria, Germany, Switzerland etc etc you get the point hahaha)

Onwards to a better year! "Yes, we can."

Last but not least, I wish for world peace.

To all potential Miss Universe particpants out there, flash that victory sign on cue and give that megawatt smile! wahaha...

Back from Malaysia

Happy holidays to all~

The visit to Malaysia was quite a refreshing and interesting one. Went to Melaka, KL and Genting Highlands all in the matter of 3 days (1 X room change everyday ahaha...)

The interesting thing was that Meleka was the location that caught my eye the most out of all 3 places. Maybe it's because I haven't been there in...say... a decade or more? Yeah when I was a kid I used to think the place was freaking boring and all Melaka had to show for its splendour was the Big Ol' crimson-coloured church haha...

A 2nd visit almost 10 years later and it's a whole new experience. Listening to a live band while drinking a bottle of Heneiken (woo~) in the cool weather, walking around the narrow streets at night; it's all very relaxing and tranquil.

Not to mention that the rich history of Melaka and the unique architecture which can be found there makes it a photographers' haven. Will post pictures up soon once I process them haha...

I did suffer a bit of a burnout when I took the photography module in school because (like I mentioned to my friends) I thought of photography as a hobby and I wasn't really adapting well to the idea of producing surrealistic and conceptual pictures haha... but the module has sorta pushed my imagination to its limits so perhaps I might experiment with such themes in the future, but for now though I guess my main interest is still tilted towards the photojournalistic perspective hahaa....
