Here it goes, I saw a small orchestra group performing @ The Gardens. =)


Playing Besame Mucho

Besame Mucho has a Spanish feel to it. The piece was originally from classical guitar.







Quin and I didn't stay long and we walked away after the first piece.

We then walked around the shopping complex and started cam-whoring. From leather seats to even flower pots. =P

That's all from The Gardens. =)

Quin and I went to Mid Valley yesterday to meet up with her friends. Only then I realized there is a new shopping complex by the name,The Garden.

The Garden is located directly opposite of Mid Valley. In my opinion, The Garden is like the new Suria KLCC with branded shops like COACH, Armani Exchange and many more.

In addition, The Garden was officially opened a few days ago. Hence, you can still see some renovations going on inside the shopping complex. Since the place is still new, there aren't many shops yet.

Here are the photos:








Guess what did I see at The Garden?

One more paper to go!!! Tomorrow @ precisely 12.30 pm will mark the end of my trials!!

Please ignore the timer because it thought that my trials is going to end this coming midnight. =s

Anyway, what is a silhouette?

A silhouette is a form of artwork. It is most commonly a human portrait in profile, in black. They do not show any facial expression.

In my case, my silhouette is not a human portrait. =)

I was browsing through my photo folder and I found this photo which was in RAW format. So, I fired up Adobe Lightroom and started editing the photo.

This is what I got:

Last Saturday, the family and I went to East Lake Residence to have a BBQ dinner. East Lake Residence is located in Seri Kembangan which is directly opposite the Mine's Wonderland.

The group consists of the three sisters, the mom, the mom's friend, boyfriends of the sisters and myself.

Happy Mooncake Festival to all!!

Will be attending a mooncake festival party later, after my tuition. =(

Chemistry paper 2 down. Two more papers to go!!!!

Still remember about BBQ with the family? Here's an intro to it.

Detailed version will be updated in a few days' time. =)

The following week which starts from 24th till 27th September will be the last leg of my trials.

Part of me is excited because trials is finally coming to an end. But the other part is stressing like nobody's business because I'm going to sit for Chemistry and General Paper.

Chemistry - 80% complete but not 100% sure on obtaining an A-/A
General Paper - Need to score at least 45/60 in order to get an A-

For general paper, we have to study the government's admin. Who the heck cares?! But I'm obliged to understand *memorize* before I fail the paper.

Here's a picture that contradicts my mood.

Bittersweet Symphony

I will once again post something short today. I hope you guys don't spam my chatbox with your blog links etc etc. =(

Anyway, I'm off to a BBQ session with the family.

But before leaving, here's a picture that describes my feeling for the moment.



My brain is currently so packed yet I need to study for Chemistry and General Paper. Someone please kill me. =(

Went to One Utama with the sister right after school.

Upon reaching, she complained that she was hungry, so we decided to try out Carl's Jr.

The serving is big, in fact dam big. But it's kinda pricey to be considered as economical fast food compared to McD. It will be cheaper if you just order the burger and get your drinks from the nearby supermarket.

Overall, the burger has a unique taste in it. I wouldn't say Carl's Jr. has the best burgers in town, but I reckon that you should try it out at least once. =)









The reason I went to One Utama is to release stress from Physics. The subject physics is done for now. Chemistry will be next. =(

This post is just a short update, so no pictures will be posted because I have to time to edit them.

Physics Paper 1 down for the moment and I should be preparing for Paper 2 which I'm going to sit for it tomorrow.

Somehow, I feel that I have so much to study but I just don't seem to understand the notes which I wrote. Maybe it's because I've been skipping physics classes all the time. And by skipping classes, I mean skipping all the Saturday classes for the past few weeks.

And to my realisation, Chemistry paper 2 is coming ealier than I had anticipated. I thought that I would have a few days time to prepare for it but I was wrong. The paper is on next Monday.

Anyway, I gotten this video from Shaolin Tiger about a music genius. He's a keyboardist and he plays solo which are on par to those played by Steve Vai or Paul Gilbert.

Behold, Ronald Jenkees!

Trials is going to end soon, 5 more papers to go.

On the other hand, I did quite badly for Maths 2 because I didn't practise much for a certain chapter. *Screw you Deductive Geometry*

Anyway, time flies real fast that I have got no time to do my revision. Sigh.. I shall focus real hard on my studies after trials!

Anyway, picture of the day:

Taken using Canon 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens *lens and watch belong to my sister's friend* =P

Maths paper 1 was tough as hell. Alright, in some cases, challenging shall be the word to describe it. Part of the reason is due to lack of practice. I was chilling off the night before the paper and I should have revised instead of surfing the net.

Sigh, what is done is done. Tomorrow will be Maths paper 2. Hopefully I will score better in paper 2.

Before I go off and revise, here are some photos to share.


Taken by Lee Quin

The 2nd photo of Lee Quin is kinda blur because the environment was very dark and despite ISO 1600 and f/1.8, the shutter was rather slow.

And to the lovely ladies out there who are reading this blog, I shall dedicate this picture of a cute friend of mine. =)

His name is Bobby.


If you want to cuddle him or chat with him, you can drop by a comment and I'll arrange a time for the both of you. =)

Was chatting with smashpop during the afternoon. Then, he saw my MSN display picture and insisted me to post it up in my blog.

Well, I was reluctant at first but for you, pop, my friend, my bro and etc etc.. =P

So behold, my self portrait. But before I show it, you can start blindfolding yourself with some cloth or something.

*P/s: Pop, the picture sucks and I don't understand why you think it's nice. =(

I am (so so so so so so so)X 10000000000 tired.

I must not sleep so early!! I'm not prepared for Maths 1 tomorrow!!

Dang, shouldn't have gone for basketball just now. I'm all drained out now. =(

I need these to keep me sane *literally*.

It was a Saturday night and decided to go shopping with mum. Fine, I don't do shopping but just did some window shopping.

Then, there was a performance going on in conjunction with the Ramadan month.


I then put on the 50mm lens and started shooting as if I'm holding a sub-machine gun. =P








There are more pictures here!

I'm starting to like the 50mm lens because it delivers sharp images and also creates beautiful bokehs. It may be a cheap lens and light like a toy, but it is definitely one piece of equipment every Canon User should buy and play with it. =)

The reason I had to get up early is to prepare myself for Marcus' surprise birthday party.

The party was help in one of the local churches - New Life Restoration Centre.

2nd sis and I had to go to the church early to decorate the place as well as to ensure that everything is according to plan.

2nd sis ordered Cuppacakes as finger desserts for the party.




While waiting for the arrival of 1st sis and her beloved boyfriend - Marcus, some of them starting counting cupcakes.


The moment arrived and Marcus walked into the room without knowing what was going on.


During the party, I was so excited on taking pictures of small little children till an extend that people might think that I'm a potential paedophile.






At another corner, some of them were lighting the candles.



Marcus and his cake

Finally, the party ended with a prayer.

Well, as I mentioned in the previous post, I bought something from One Utama. The answer to that something would be this:



Kar Fai in a Civic Type R

Bowling Time




Both of them were bored after bowling and decided to play a game of pool.









I didn't play bowling nor pool because I was broke after buying the lens.

Do comment on the pictures. =) I'm still new to the lens and the camera as well. Hence, constructive comments will further improve my photography skills. =)

Thank you for reading.
