簡単なこと




Dear TomHa,
Sometimes, all it takes is just a simple idea, a simple expression that revertebrates among the masses to bring all the money you need to you. Check this out. This is a new brand of sporty /fashionable lifestyle company that I took notice walking around Novena Square after collecting my Real Run race pack. In any case, I am beginning to regret my decision to run 15km. Seems a tad too long. Guess I shall go and crash the 10k party. =P



Well, finally I went to collect my photos that I took with my Holga. They were interesting to say the least. All of them photos that I would never have expected to say the least. Lots of light leaks that I never seal enough with my duct tape, all the unexpected vignetting (which I am pretty used to with my Sigma lens though, though this one takes this to a higher level), all the unexpected surprises. Really, as the age old lomo rule states, bring it everywhere you go and don't think about what that you are shooting. However, 残念だった. I am still constantly calculating the cost I am going to spend developing the photos at the back of my mind all the time. Pretty much limits a lot of things. Lol.

Well, now that the All Blacks are out, I seriously wonder if I would be interested enough to watch the World Cup final. Habana, as good as he is, still looks like a super beefed up version of Lewis Hamilton in my eyes. Oh ya, I hope Raikkonen wins the drivers' championships although I kinda like mclaren's cars. But the super cool demeanour of Raikkonen still appeals to me.

Oh ya, pool won the derby. Bloody hell, kept me on the edge of my seat all the way to the final whistle.

もう22歳に成った




Dear Tomha,
Sorry for the neglect. There was simply not much impetus to blog and the lack of photo taking these few days/months also means nothing on my beloved flickr site. So let me update on myself a little bit to all my blog readers:

1. I am going to straighten my teeth.

2. I still hate going to the dentists

and I presume it is very visible when the dentists kept telling me to relax and not be so tensed up.

3. I have a Holga, thanks to my Section!
Although I would still say that I am not much into lomography, but, the sheer mechanical nature of that plastic casing just entices me to shoot and shoot and shoot and shoot. Already 3 rolls of 120mm, 4 rolls of 35mm. I wonder how much that would cost to process...

4. I can't go for Aikido grading this December.
Now I am going to be stuck in the lower grade class. Not a good feeling.

5. Going Sichuan for Ice climbing!
if everything goes well and no one fly my aeroplane.

大事なこと




Dear TomHa,
Yet another core member of the Lonely Hearts Club has graduated, as he had moved on as he what he had liked. Congratulation, really. It is a club whereby disassociation brings you glory, happiness and gratification. I wonder when is my turn?

So, another mid-autumn, another year that is about to end. Time waits for no one. How true...

何の為に?




Dear TomHa,
Had you read the papers? There is this supposedly new shipping route in the Arctic region due to the effects of Global Warming. Some of these people are like so people and I really don't know what is those euphoria for. Sure, you'll be able to travel Northern regions faster by sea-craft, but so what? It is time to despair and not to be elated over the opportunity that was presented to us. That the mighty icebergs of the Arctic had bent down to our will is just so disatrous and sad. Where are the polar bears going to hunt? Now that there is more boats to scare away all the seals and anything they eat. Sobzz...

In other news, Australian navy is paying for their female sailors' breat implant operation for psychological reasons. I wonder why...

Crazy week...




Dear TomHa,
Isn't she a beauty? Coupled with incredible storm warning systems and unparalleled barometer and compass readings. It is a definite must have for any rich mountaineering enthusiast! Sadly for me, I might fit the enthusiast bit, but I am definitely not rich... sobs...

And so, another week came and gone like no one's business. In another twinkling of the eye, I guess it would be New Year's soon. Not that I am complaining anyway. My year 4 timetable had been pretty good. Managed to have quite a lot of free slots that I, sadly, spent walking around and doing nothing productive. I had reached some sort of bottleneck with my FYP, with my sensors reporting that there are something within its range when there was nothing. Spooky. So glad that hungry ghosts' festival is over this tuesday. And also, I have absolutely no idea what my professors are talking about in all their lectures. I seriously hoped enough information diffused into my puny brain as I fell asleep in all the lectures, no matter the time.

I should be reading up on robots, programming and more thermodynamics. But, instead, I am like spending most of the time of the day reading the newspaper. Imagine 2h spent in the canteen or engin mac reading the news of the day. How boring had I gotten... Hence, some of the latest happenings that had caught my interest:

Mr Dave Teo Ming went AWOL with a SAR21
Perhaps all the RPs had heard about what I am doing with my FYP and decided that they can take a break. Please don't... My sensors can only sense those good brothers.

Luciano Pavarotti died, aged 71
One of the most incredible voices that I had ever listened to, Mr Pavarotti had left the world, leaving us mortals depressed over the lost of such a larger than life personality. Check out his orbituary here

Nothing much else. The rest of the news are always the same, though more interesting than any modules that I am doing.

Oh and before I forget. Saw this somewhere. If you had beedn reading Archie since young, check this out! It is incredible that someone actually spends time and effort in bloggin about these fictional characters' life, away from the comics. And yah... I still think Betty most chio.
