Old Me

One of our family friend posted an old pics on facebook. This makes my day. I saw a picture of myself 10-13 years back. The photo was taken during the birthday party of Hiro, Gaylords little brother. I’m the one with the red shirt. So kawai right? (good thing I disabled the comment function here ).

Testing

I’m still disappointed about not being able to watch and take photos of the marathon yesterday. I wanted to test my new Nikon 80-200 2.8 in this event. Unfortunately, I woke up 30 minutes late from the time which I was supposed to. I didn’t know that a 10K run would only take 1 hour to complete. When I came there it was too late. I only took two photos which ended up a not so good one. I will just try my luck next time.

BBB Virus

I won’t deny that I’m infected with the “BBB” virus. “BBB” stands for Bili, Benta, Bili (Buy, Sell, Buy). I’ve been in Photography lately and I enjoyed it so much, except for the feeling that you always want more power (Zoom and bigger aperture for me) From Nikon 18-105mm VR to Nikon 18-200mm VR and now eyeing for either Nikon 80-200mm 2.8 or Nikon 70-200mm 2.8 VR. You would always tell yourself, “This is the best lens for me” and yet you keep thinking of changing/buying a better one.

This is an expensive hobby. Sometimes you would realize that this is more of a “Wants” than a “Needs”, which is true . My resolve? as long as you are happy and it doesn’t affect your savings too much, Go. Nikon 70-200mm 2.8 VR wait for me please

Counting the days

3 months… For the employees in my current company, this will be the longest days of their career. Anyone who submit their resignation needs to undergo a 3 months notice. I’m no exception. This is a period where you need to pray everyday that everything will be perfect at work, otherwise you will get in trouble. It’s like walking on a thin line that anytime you’ll fall (or it just me ). I wanted a long break from work, but I guess I really need to earn it.

My last day will be on the 12th of January 2010. It’s a gamble for me, because I’ll have to wait until the end of my notice period before I could apply. Companies here don’t wait for that long. I’m jobless after that date, it’s a good thing I saved money for this event.

3 months from now, I won’t be opening this door anymore.

New Home

I used to blog at my multiply site. It was a very good platform for me. Thanks Multiply.

Anyway, I’m really excited to start my blog here in WordPress. Why WordPress? I just want a fresh start for my blog and WordPress is the first one that pops out of my mind . Hopefully, it will be longterm. I don’t want to promise anything yet. But I will keep this blog updated.

I’m leaving it blank for now. I’m saving this space for something. As of now I don’t know it yet. Yes, it’s weird. That’s me.
