Film addict!

I was suppose to go ruby to get my developing stuff today. But ended up i couldnt resist to get some B&W films for storage. I might have mistaken about the 20% price hike after April and thought that its the end of film supply!

This was what i ended up with!


I didnt realise i bought alot of them till i pay at the counter.

At least i didnt forget my main motive there was to get the cheap fixer and the dark changing bag. Oh and i didnt manage to get enough cannister to roll the negative. So guess got to wait for a while...but with so many films to shoot, i guess i can wait.


N when i decided to keep them in the fridge, i realise.......


I have to tactically find space to store them...
Mum's definitely going to kill me if the whole fridge is films!

And oh ya...i finally got my first B&W developed..and im amazed with the results..thou i didnt manage to control the lighting and exposure well..but...its nice enough!

Let's just hope that i can get my diafine developer soon so that i can develop my first B&W!

Shooting close up with medium Format

Finally gotten myself an Omax close up filter x2 off ebay.
My first test shot was with Lucas. I couldnt really focus well with him moving ard...so i decided to take when he is in Lala land.
It wasnt really easy to focus thru this filter. In fact, the distance of accurate focusing seems to be very small...slight movement will result in out of focus.
Nonetheless, i was quite please with the results.



Oh...i will progressively update my Malacca pictures and experience in my photography blog.

I dread March!

Yah i know that March is the most busy month of the whole year due to the fact of year end closing. Although i don't really do closing, but my budget preparation this year is getting more and more demanding. In fact, every year seems to be tougher.

I am glad that i managed to get a short getaway to Malacca last Saturday with the RF gang. My first outing with them and its amazingly fun!

My pictures are still with uncle mike and guess i'm going to find some time to pick it up this week.

Will post them this week!

My Purchases during IT fair!

It was such a coincident that IT fair was held during the period while i am attending courses in the central area and it happened that i get released before 5pm.
So after my course, i went to Suntec IT fair.

Glad that i went as i found a discount over the ear piece which i wanted to get for the longest period and i nearly bought them in transit.
I got the green color version which matches my Iphone cover.


Audio Technica was the brand i came across 3 years back. I was totally impressed with its quality despite the cost of it. It lasted me till now and still going strong. The one i previously owned doesnt have a bass insert so i thought that i might as well reward myself by buying a better version.




I paid $38 for them which saved me $10.


My initial plans was to get a monitor to replace my current Dell monitor which started to show some problem. But i didnt get any in the end. Guess this show was still targeted at laptops.

I got the sonic gear speakers instead. Can you believe that the price of speakers has dropped tremendously. My ear piece costs also the same as this set of speakers.


Its a Singapore product that is made in China if im not wrong and for that price, its considered a really not bad product.

Quality wise, ermm...i still prefer Altec lansing...Sonic gear gives me alot of problem. Last night when i first tested, all speakers were working fine. Morning when i re test it, the left connector seems to have problems with projecting the sound out. And when i finally gave up on it, it worked again! so now, i have decided to just leave it in the position that works and not going to shift it around anymore.

Can't complain much for this price thou!

Going on Course!

After almost 1 year, I finally attended my first external course, Visual Business Analytics, in the month of march. This course is something which i have always wanted to go but didnt really the chance to until recently. Thanks to my bosses for putting in a good word for me.

Frankly speaking, after just 2 days, i seriously think that this is a worthy course and i really benefit from it. Right now in my mind, its all about dashboards and how to create and apply them in my context. I promised sheryl that i will do something for her and i believed that by end of next week, i should be able to get my first dashboard up and running.

Something i really don like about going to courses in CBD area, especially Tanjong Pagar, is the congested traffic and the unsheltered pathways from buildings to buildings.

Partially also because of my unpleasant past interviews at this location which non went through. Lunch time was scary and i really appreciate working at Changi Airport.

So now, its time for me to go through my notes and start drawing my dashboard. Cool!
