This week
What you are seeing now is the last slice of cake that my bro baked for me as a birthday present. Spend a week to finish the whole cake haha!
Anyways suppose to go with chiew shiah and her friend to cycle at east coast park but then it rained, so after the rain, we didnt went to cycle but to walk around the beach which i didnt intend for hence I have to walk barefooted to the nearby mac to wash my feet before i put on my shoes. The water to wash the feet was like super small sian -.-"Was at the beach taking pictures of the two of them hahaha!
Honestly, i liked the decor of parkway on christmas more than the ones at orchard cos its super kawaii, the animals haha!
The christmas tree at parkway.As for my current updates...besides work, emails and waiting for emails...I currently packing my stuff now left the mattress and big soft toy to carry there and then some papers which i be flipping through at the moment all about there. Next weekend, dad booking me and bro to paint the house. the only choice we can get is out room's colour. The present is light purple and pink which is actually nice too. I at lost of which to chose lol all white? white on 2 sides then the metallic light pink on the other two or instead yellow on the other two? lol haha! on the week after we paint the house, we are going to move it so its super fast lol.
Btw next wee dec 3, we getting our results back...and some or all the results is officially withheld due to the union strike over there.
New Template!
Well... was busy for the past couple of hours changing the new template. Well the codes aren't exactly mine, I told a layout and edit the colours and the pictures putting my pictures on the template itself but hey i still credit the creator haha!
For the next weekend, i be busy cos dad says I and my bro are going to paint the whole house for next weekend as we be moving in during december. hmm the current colour is purple and pink... cant think of what colour to paint but mum says white ba for the living room and others so the choice to chose is my room haha.
The design is exactly like shiah's house! took me just now to realise it lol and the room is bigger than my current. Dad ask us to mark our zones so that he can fix plugs for us as he hate to see us using extension here and there :X
oh and my old warode would be for my dad to use as there is an existing warode on the wall in my future room.
And just now I was out talk by both my dad and mum when i suggest that i could cycle to the eunos mrt instead of taking a bus as it is faster but they say no no too heavy the traffic -.-" even when i say i will turn up to eunos not cross the big x junction there...lol

work work work
Been busy anf finally a day of rest today. Started work on the 16 and it was mountains of letters to type... Any way went to do some birthday shots yesterday but it was a mess, i shouldnt have brought the 70 t0 300mm lens, it was way too narrow for the shoot and i have to stand very far in orchard road waiting for people to pass by.
A ouple of things i noticed... a lot of people were pratically using dslr for the taking of their photos. The christmas decor were somehow plain this year and i just like argh i not taking it anymore!
A lot of things i really need to learn about photo taking...it was a very deep hole that i dug in and the only way to get out is to learn...composition...white balance and all.
Below a plant that my bro imported from mymmar. He's been going out and i be tired after a day's work and went to sleep early...

After Exam
Exams finally over for me and its time to get a job to end of Jan, so yesterday I basicially went to 4 interviews in total.
The first was at tanjong pagar interviewing for temp admin when my duties are to cover the satff while she went for her materity leave.
After that interview, travel down to nee ann city tower A recruit express to fill in the form and then I got something to eat before I walk around orchard for a while. The decros for christmas is already up! man... I be missing out on time while preparing for my exams. After orchard, walk around ion, actually is trying to find my way to the mrt. SHE was there for the osim event but the event start at 4. After that I went to Raffles MRT the uOB recruit express to fill in an application form for a temp admin job at NTUC and then idle down there for the interview at 4 when there are 2 interviewers interviewing me.
After that make my way back to the MRT and then travel to commonwealth and take 198 to raya jaya JTC for an interview at 5.15pm for the intent job in the photography studio. Unlike the past 2 interviews, this one is more relaxing, the industry rate for such as internship is 500 per month which is half of what i would get for the 2 other jobs which pays about $6.50 per hour.
Benefits would be that I can learn about shooting in studio and if the studio is empty its my to use. On top of this I can learn to edit in mac or windows and most likely if I take pictures would be food photography. Sundays and Saturdays is usually free unless I want to learn. Also if I'm good, maybe I could work part time there. working is from 9 to 5 or 10 to 6pm.
The other 2 is from 8.30 am to 6pm.

Battery Grip
Finally I landed on a bargin for a battery grip for my camera! On top of this I got 2 extra batteries now! wow!
Went out in the morning to make the deal, ya ya ya most of my equipments 100% are second hand purchases as the finances needed to enjoy photography is very heavy. Well Mum is asking me not to soend too much on those equipments. She got a point there by herself. Who knows how long this heat will last? for I am a 3 minute person and also the point that photography is much less restricted here. Well I'm lucky to got this latest deal. Although its second hand, the condition is very new and with the package I got at the price, I did save $20 or so as I saw a few other offers from sellers selling the grip at $120 to even $140 for the grip itself without the battery.

Condition of the box is like new, with all the manuels and the plastic inside the box.
The grip itself can store up to 2 batteries or AA batteries when you put the AA tray inside the grip.
(PS above is one of the pictures I always wanted to take in the MRT, travelling can be fun if you observe the tiny actions of people around you haha)
An eariler picture I took before I met the seller for the grip. My first time taking photo inside the MRT and got told off by a commuter. Okies I know it doesnt feel nice to have someone taking your photos without your permission but I didnt take her photo. For portiats, I usually identify one subject out of a crowd and took it with the person not looking at the camera in black and white cos I think it helps to not identify the person from the picture and that I can hack care about the white balance. To be fair to all, I went to the websites and SMRT to check if there is such a law and there was none in SMRT website.
An article on newpaper quoted the Lawyer's claims that there was no law to forbid people from taking pictures in public places. Meaning if you standing on public places and taking pictures of the store insides with ZOOM lens its not illegal. Of cos main thing is not the law but to respect those actions of others.
