Mum bought a tripod for me that cost RM199. The funny thing is that I keep pondering whether it's worth it.

Like normal girls my age would probably be buying fashionable stuffs(which i would want) and I'm getting a tripod.

Opportunity cost.


Whether or not this investment will be worth it.
The cost of it is not a lot to some people but to me it is..

The sacrifices we make for our dreams.

ignore my weird face, the angle is unflattering for me hahaha, but this picture is really priceless..

(out)comfort = out of comfort zone

Tonight
I stepped out of my comfort zone and decided that letting a waiter take a picture is perfectly fine

Not caring what others think
When they look at us
Because nobody else normally would ask the waiter..... I mean cause it's just some normal dinner...

But because the memory is for my own :')

Stepping out of comfort zones are great. I feel a tiny wow. More to times like this !!!

What do you need to step out to do? Just do it because you only live ONCE !

The moon was astonishingly bright tonight.

Once I realize it I frantically asked my bro to Google "How To Take Moon Pictures"..... Haha.

The truth is, there's quite some settings prior to capturing a good moon picture using a DSLR!

But I'm only using the basic kit lens, that's why it's so small... Hmms...
Shall try my mum's digital' zoom lens some other night! I desperately hope that I am constantly motivated and moved to improve my photography.

Cleared some papers today. Sometimes I find myself having an extremely hard time deciding whether to keep or throw certain papers. Old notes. Random stuff people wrote. Random drawing. Event preparation' scribbles etc. etc.. I end up sitting there asking around the same questions upon each paper that I'm undecided: Will I need this in 5 years? Will I even have time to come back for this? In 50 years' time does this even matter anymore? Does this paper really record that special memory? But why should an important memory be based on a paper? How much time in my life will be wasted if I just keep looking back and holding on to these papers? Will I even have time? If I do, isn't it a waste of time to linger?


I have been rather silent today but my mind have been constantly thinking. Sometimes we hold on to the weirdest bits of items just so we can reminisce some familiar feeling. The past. The beautiful memories. The people we knew before they changed. It's so hard to choose which paper is really for keeps. Cards and letters I will never ever throw, but I'm speaking about papers. Those random papers we just randomly keep... Yet I still have my pictures. When I realize that once I have pictures, I can remember just enough amazing moments... I'm contented. 

So goodbye papers.

Yay!

This picture is very special because it is captured by my one and only, mum! With her new digital camera that she long hoped for.

What she purchased is really a basic point and shoot Canon Ixus camera (the cheapest model), where there's not even black and white filters, or just any unique modes to work with. But I'm rather impressed that it's neat. Looks neat, feels neat, and takes neat pictures! Heh!

Today I'm extremely grateful for one of Canon's salesman that explained thoroughly to me questions I asked regarding the lenses I was looking into. We need more calm, cool and knowledgeable salesmen around please!!

Canon Exhibition..... interesting experience.
Canon, you truly delight me always.

Model of the day: The Fly
Material used: My dog's poop !


I took this photograph because I wanted to remember what my dog did today. He was making a statement to express his sadness, because I did not take him out for a walk yesterday.

So he chose to pooped on solid ground (when there's so many grass and soft ground around!), at the area where I would usually hang clothes washed !

Indeed he grabbed my attention, and this is not the first time !

I took more than 10 shots of his poop (haha, it's not really that disgusting if you don't think about it), and the fly was initially facing his back towards me, but turned around at one point and posed for me instead !

Insects: posing since the 1st century.
