Here comes the season of upgrading and construction and that equates to tons and tons of dust particles tickling your nose and most importantly settling on your furniture it makes me squeal in agony.
Sounds wrong.
So that also equates to wrapping up every piece of furniture and covering walls with ornaments with plastic. Not to mention the whole evacuating of master bedroom kitchen and some parts of the hall. It reminded me of moving house. All this made me want to throw away my bed frame and get a nice new one from Ikea. We'll see what parents say to that!
Weather's quite mad today. Anyway I'll be off to Padang in two days time for 5 days. A whole new experience for photo-taking and also sights and sounds. There's a volcano there, I can't wait to see it.
I am still pondering over Khidir's invitation to go Cambodia with a team called Ignite? I can't remember. Ain's going too, that makes life a whole lot more fun. But I also want to backpack around Indo, or simply visit Jogja with Kyun and maybe a couple of friends to see all the temples and such.
I got additional students now. That'll boost my income madly.

Got slightly busy these days meeting up with people and spending time with you.
So I got back from Tioman! It was pretty amazing, for once I was overseas and not pining for someone. I think this trip was much better than previous, simply because of the company and more importantly the days doesn't feel rushed. The going there was rather fast! We caught the ferry at 1130 and was checked in by 1400.
The first day was nothing but just swimming and lazing around in the water in the afternoon after lunch. We had dinner early, played Monopoly Deal (which is a bloody addictive game) and soon after sambal stingray, then soccer and off to sleep.
Second day was snorkelling in the morning til noon, busy throwing bread near people so the fishes would be wild around them ^^, had a nice lunch and played games and chat. Went to fly kite and bothering cats (: And trying to get extension for another day!
Dived on the third day on a nice morning and went back to a new room (the Superior but I preferred the cheaper one) where 4 people squeezed in. Short nap before hitting the sea again. It was an interesting night where a HUGE bug the size bigger than a fist come hurtling at the restaurant and we ran away, cowards.
Japan lost and slept on a sofa bed! Haha it was my first .__.
Yep, been busy since meeting friends for lunches and dinners, going on shopping trips with them. Teaching too. Fifa got me a mirror and chopsticks from Beijing, how sweet (: Had pizzas today with Raqeeb and had Breeks yesterday with Andrea. I'm ice-skating this Friday with Amira and Fifa, lunch with Rohenie on Thursday and maybe go Changi tomorrow to try out...
MY NEW LENS.
Prime lens 35mm/f1.8 coming cheap at 345$ first hand, Nikkor. How I screamed in delight. Watched Up with Kyun at my place over Long John's (with unlimited supply of cheese), it's a fantastic show. Pixar NEVER disappoint. In the first 10 minutes I nearly cried .__. And by the end I was tearing into her shirt. So embarrassing.
Attaching adaptor to my Holga and I can shoot 36mm films on it! Time to revive film!
