September Ending Soon

It is close to the end of September. Another 4 more days will be Children’s Day. A start of a new month, a start of a new life it is going to be. I think I forgot quite a lot of things. My memory getting poorer as I grow older each day.

I had got my COE, Confirmation of Enrolment 2 days ago. This means I got a lot of things to prepare. I got to do my student visa, medical checkup just like the times before I went into poly, and book my air tickets. It seems so close to the day I am flying off and leaving everything behind in Singapore.

I am not a person who can speak well, and not a person who can make good decisions. Always do the wrong things; always act clever when I should just be just clever enough. I hope I won’t make anything stupid or silly when I am in Australia. It will be a time I get independent.

Oh my… I think I had being quite emotional lately.

Time

If I could turn back time, I wish I could. There are so many things I would like to do and not do.

Few days later will be my 1 year anniversary as a commissioned officer of the Singapore Armed Forces. 1st Oct is also Children’s day. It is also one special day but may not be significant already. Wanted to celebrate this triple joyous day but it looks like I will be looking at myself alone in the mirror.

Nevermind, so be it. It is a sad day today for me. Almost wanted to cry. Nobody understands me. Nobody ever really cares. Its just doing for the sake of it. Goodbye people, I will be flying off in end January next year. I hope there will be no regrets in the atmosphere when I step into custom at the airport. I hope I leave no regrets and take no regrets.

Singapore IMF 2006 Fireworks 19 September

Be prepared to view one of the best fireworks display which can only be through the eyes of a human and video camera but not through the lens of a still camera. The is the fireworks which I took with the least shots as i could not be bothered to shoot in such a thick smoky environment.

I had tried to take the fireworks a few hours back but it really sucks. I think they never learn from lessons, or maybe Singapore doesn’t have enough money to buy low smoke fireworks? But cannot be leh, you know what I meant. Cannot anyhow say, later kana sue.

So, below are the photos. Be warned. They are the worst fireworks photos I ever took.
















Suddenly the fireworks near the Merlion shot up without warning.


Irritating spot lights.

Clever Act

Sometimes I really hate myself for being acting too clever when I am not. Hokkien got one phrase “clever is enough, but don’t act clever”. In chinese, it is 聪明反被聪明误. What have I done?! I cannot believe that I had destroyed something. Trying to fix equipment, in the end, I damage 2 additional items. Faster tell me I am stupid. Haiz… itchy hands of mine.

Sunday at Sentosa

It had being quite a while I last stepped into Sentosa. The weather isn’t that good last Sunday and in the end, we stayed in a shelter for 1 hour waiting for the rain to stop. No Sun and was quite dark almost the rest of the afternoon. Didn’t manage to take many photos, haiz…











I always think the Merlion at Sentosa is very ugly.






Someone please clean the Merlion!!!!
What a pair of evil red eyes it got there :/ and it got so many black heads!!!! ewww!!!!








Click to enlarge. The best I can do for my Panorama. Tried to use a stitching program but it did not do auto exposure in the end resulted in different color sections, those are cropped off.


Felt as if I am shooting fireworks again.


So many years already, the Musical Fountain still display the same show over and over again. Dun they find it boring?

Stun of the day!

Fellow CS member who uses a Konica Minolta Dynax 7D same as me, attached is his "tua leng kong" 300mm prime lens. Mine using a "tua pow" as it is smaller in size, 170-500mm. Terms are used in relation to the lens size and weight, not how much zoom it has.
