Bits n pieces of me
So many questions in my head right now. All the stupid ?????????????????? What for ?? I don’t know. Why pour salt on a wound? Guess I’ll have to wait longer. What’s meant to be is meant to be. I’ll just continue my journey of human behaviourial study. In the meantime, enjoy this …. made a comeback thanx to Hellboy 
Its been some time since i write anything about what’s happening with me. Life have been great for me since I took up photography. I make more friends and brudders. Every weekend is used for photography and week days is used to recuperate and plan for weekends. It just feels great to be able to be actively doing something I enjoy. Gone are the days of gaming madness. Now its like go here and there and shoot shoot shoot. As we shoot, we learn. Learning is fun when u are doing it with a group of like minded brudders
However, not everything in life is so sweet and colourful. It has its dull moments. Its downs. I’ve been losing a couple of good friends to job change. Guess it can’t be helped. They need to move on to greater opportunities that lies ahead for them. Afterall, its their life and they have set a path that they would want to follow. Its just sad to see them go 1 by 1. Eventhough, we said we are going to be in touch through msn, its usually turns out to be untrue. New place, new friends, new contacts. Its understood. They would occasionally drop a line or 2 and that’s it. That’s more like greetings than ‘keep in touch’. That’s why I’m always sad whenever a friend leaves the co. Its true I can make new friends at work but it seems they make me mad more than make me their friends. So I’m just gonna leave it at that.
As for love, hmmz …. its just same old drama that I see. And somehow, I’m always trying to be involved in difficult situations. Its like you see what you want in front of you but you can’t have it because its being surrounded by a big fire which could burn itself out (which is good) or a fire which would burn everything it sees including what you want. Shit me senseless. Why do I get myself into this? Is it fated? I know I shouldn’t be blogging about this but heck .. THIS IS MY BLOG and I feel like blurting everything out so that at least I can let things off my chest.
Is there such a thing as Love at first sight? Maybe.
How do you explain Love at first sight?
Here’s what I see on Wikipedia.
Love at first sight is an emotional condition whereby a person feels romantic attraction for a stranger on the first encounter with the stranger. The term may be used to refer to a mere sexual attraction or crush, but it usually refers to actually falling in love with someone literally the very first time one sees him or her, along with the deep desire to have an intimate relationship with that person. The stranger may or may not be aware that the other person has any such notion, and may not even be aware of the other person’s presence (such as in a crowded place). Sometimes two people experience this phenomenon towards each other at the same time, usually when their eyes meet. See also love.
Love at first sight … is it illegal? Why should it be? Nothing wrong to have a crush on someone the moment you see them
Do love at first sight happen all the time? I don’t know. But in my experience, i feel that it happens only when u meet a person who could click with you right at your first encounter. IT JUST HAPPENS!
Anyway, my mind is in a mess again as usual but I’m pretty sure it’ll clear soon. Good or bad, I guess we take it like a MAN! End of rantings.
These are the shots taken during the event.
The event went well today with more new faces and we are glad that we are able to share the experience with more people. The event was held to help make people realise the importance of knowing the basics of photography and of course to have fun. We are thankful that a few individuals unselfishly donated the prizes as an encouragement to the participants. For this I salute them. I’ll update soon with the photos that I took.
Time to sleep

What is No Chimping all about?
Chimping is a term used in digital photography (especially when using a DSLR) to describe the habit of checking every photo on the on-camera display immediately after capture (according to wikipedia). So no chimping would mean that no looking at the on-camera display after every shot or for the purpose of this event , for 36 shots. The whole objective of no chimping is to bring participants back to the days for film where there is no such thing as chimping. It would test each participants on how well they know their cameras and the basics of photography. They will need to think hard before they press the trigger as they are limited to 36 shots and they have to make each shot count. So, before the event, each and everyone needs to be familiar with exposure, shutter speed, ISO and aperture size (f-number).
“Embracing the Primes”
For this round, in addition to No Chimping, contestants are limited to using prime lenses only. To promote participation, those without primes can join but need to shoot at a fixed focus length. This would give the participants more things to think of when they compose as its quite challenging to compose using prime lenses. Prime lenses are lenses which have fixed focal length as opposed to zoom lenses (according to wikipedia).
