Random Photos

I haven't been blogging much because life has become somewhat stagnated for me. I've been going out quite a bit, and addicted to a handphone game called Jewel Quest II, but the problem is that the handphone doesn't belong to me, so in order to play that game, I've to go out and meet the said person whose handphone has that game.


How many people can you spot in this picture?
(left click and drag the cursor across the blank space to read the answer)
There's actually 6 people, there's one on the leftmost side somewhat obscured in the darkness. The one to the left of me is not a person but a styrofoam head.
Can you spot which one is me? We look all the same after the same white face paint with the red blood like stuff all over.
This was taken during the Fright Night/Night Scramble of Union Camp 07.


It's me doing stupid things again.
I was fiddling with my metal earpick the other day before I went to get my hair cut and decided that my shin provides a very good canvas for etching my name. This was actually my second attempt that day. I first tried on my the other leg, writing my name, and writing some words and drawing some pictures, but it was quite ugly. Wanting to be sadistic and take a picture of my wonderful artpiece, I decided to make use of my other shin and wrote neatly and nicely another version of my name. Yes, I am masochistic, thank you very much.

I showed them to my mother after completing that masterpiece, half expecting my mother to scold me for hurting myself as what she used to do when I was a kid, but instead all she said was "See la, your legs so dry, you haven't been moisturising them." I guess this is the difference when one grows old. Oh well... Anyway, the etchings didn't fade off the whole day, and they were so obvious that my hairdresser actually spotted them and asked me about it. So paiseh la, I'm supposed to be all grown up le and I still do childish things like this. hahaha~


I realised that EVERYONE has a picture of themselves and the Simpsons. Not to be outdone, I went and took a picture of myself too and like everyone else, post them in my blog too. It's sort of like becoming a photo meme already.

Me sporting my new haircut, well, not exactly a new hairstyle, but it is a new length of hair for me for since a year ago, and very coincidentally I was wearing yellow! It's actually my sister's tee, I'm wearing a lot of my sister's tees recently. I didn't realise this until after uploading the picture that my skirt is so short~ wahaha... But my legs don't look too bad despite all the weight I gained, haha. Yup, I'm proud to say, I didn't do any photoshopping to the picture other than resizing it and adding the words. lalala~


I took a passport sized photo in a photobooth the other day because I needed to use it to submit some application stuff.

It's quite an interesting experience, okay, I'm going to be a suaku and say this because this is the only time in my memory that I actually have a passport photo taken in a photobooth, other times I had taken in photo shops where I sit down and a person manually takes a polaroid photo of me, or takes a film photo of me. Anyway, I sat there, and tried to look into some circle thingie, sort of like taken neoprints, only that I had to make sure than my bangs stayed away from my eyes and that was quite a feat. There was only two chances to take the correct picture, and the time between the two shots were quite fast and I wasn't fully prepared.

This was the second attempt because the first one saw my hair covering my eye. I think I look fat in this picture. It's like the hair giving my face more volume, or rather, the hair and the round face together combining creates the volumous shape of my whole look. My gaze looks a bit stoned and my smile looks damn forced. bah~ But at least it still looks better than most people's ID photos, I think. I don't know why but most people have very ugly pictures on their identification cards and other photo id cards. I absolutely cannot stand that.

Okay, I shall end this very random post with a very random camwhoring picture of myself. It's been a long time since I camwhored, especially since my face grew rounder and I look fatter, no, and I became fatter.

Cindy~

What do you get when you put two girls at a scenic place with only a camera to share?
They entertain themselves by camwhoring!
...-_-"...
Actually, I took most of the pictures, only those with my full body inside one then is Cindy helped to take.

Haven't met up with Cindy for the longest time already, think we haven't met up much during the semester because without a common module, it's difficult to arrange to meet, and with that girl starting work like soon, we don't have much time to meet up again next time. Will try la, but see how lor...



It started with Cindy wanting to take some artistic pictures, but with us as models, we all want ourselves to look nice, and we ended up taking a lot of pictures. hahaha~



Then of course, definitely, will have the big head pictures of us making all sorts of different faces.

Blog Revamped

I've been meaning to do this for a very long time already but only managed to do it up now because...

1. I had trouble picking with header to use, then I remembered my specialty, animated gifs.
2. Then I wanted more backgrounds for the header, but haven't been travelling and haven't any nice pictures.
3. My previous copy of the template in notepad form was lost after my computer crashed. This had to be redone from scratch.
4. I fell in love with youtube and that occupied all my time.
5. I procrastinated.
6. I procrastinated more.
7. I procrastinated much more.
8. I thought that my previous blogskin was adequate.
9. I was supposed to be doing my homework tonight.
10. I decided to procrastinate doing my homework~ wahaha~


An explanation of the new header. The animated gif idea was toyed with for a month before I finally decided on these 16 pictures. I don't think they are the best but it will have to do until I find more time to make a header I'm really proud of. Actually, I don't quite like the image quality of the gif file on flickr, but it will have to do until I make a nicer header.

The picture of me in the header I thought was my pride. I really loved that picture a lot. But then my world collasped the other day when a friend said I looked like I've gained weight in that picture. dang~ Until I find a nicer picture of myself that I also really like, well, I'll keep this header. I spent like nights cutting my double face out, cutting and resizing everything, if I don't use it, the nights I've spent would be very much wasted.

I need a better photog. Then I can do less photoshopping. No, I need a studio, then I won't even need to photoshop away all the extas. The original unedited photo was from this blog entry.
The Manhattan Fish Market

There's another story behind it. When my comp crashed, the photos taken on that day were lost because I hadn't backed them up, but luckily I blogged about it, and I posted them on Flickr and I managed to get those nicer pictures back by downloading them from Flickr again. Luckily I didn't resize the pictures. If not, I'd really die. The picture is really one I liked a lot a lot, that is until that friend of mine said I looked fat in it. damn... I think it's the smile... When I smile my cheeks puff up and I look fat.

Anyway, since I started watching youtube, I've stopped playing with my photoshop. Just now it was actually touching photoshop all over again that prompted me to finally play with html codings. The pice of work I played with just now...

They are all screen captures from youtube.

I like photoshop~ I can crop and resize, and I've learnt something new today! I've learnt how to stretch~ The orginal video was on wide screen but it wasn't uploaded on wide screen format, so the characters all looked narrowed, so my screen captures of the character looked narrow, so I stretched them back using photoshop~

See when I've the time, and my screen capture is working again, I'll do a more lavish attempt at creating something nice for my dear Shinichi~ Now to think of that, I still owe someone an animated gif something like my header. I did himan amatuer one, but I found a nicer picture of him which I want to use, but more difficult to crop away all the extras at the back. bah~ Must find time to play with my photoshop again. But I've got so many other things to do too... wahaha~

Okay, please give me comments for my blogskin. Thanks~

My Birthday Presents

This is like two months belated but I've been wanting to put them as ever since the day of my birthday party. I even took those pictures the night after much to the charigin of the mother who insisted me on clearing up the floor before I slept, needless to say I didn't and suffered the whole of the day after to her naggings.



Once again thanks to everyone involved, and my parents too. And paiseh, Cindy (Teo), your that present was late so I didn't take pictures of it, and I think it's better to have one whole entire entry by itself some time later when I get back home. lol~ Just thinking of that xxoos bear makes me feel like laughing out loud sia... lol~

yea... This was what I did when I've nothing to do. I've done more. Will show you guys as time goes on~

A Photolog

I was clearing the photos from my handphone, uploading them into my computer, and also going through some old photos. The past seems to be coming back to me all at once... Here's sharing some photos, and my current thoughts about them...


This was when I first got a manicure done, quite some time ago. After I did my first manicure, I acted more than like a taitai. I was playing mahjong with a couple of friends and I didn't dare to shuffle the tiles cos I was afraid I'd chip my nails. Of course, after a couple more manicures, I don't really care that much about my nails liao.


It's a piece of artwork along the underpass leading towards Esplanade. Apparently a couple of days after this picture was taken, a couple of the pieces were stolen. The artist put up a notice stating that the art pieces were cursed and kindly requested them to be returned so that the curse could be reversed. Interesting...


The gender of mice. IR mice are females cos they menstruate while conventional mice are males cos they have balls. Or as someone put it, ahguas, cos they only have one ball.


I like cutes babies. I always tell my guy friends that if I wasn't a student, I'd really want to have a baby, right now. Blah... People haven't even have sex before want think baby. Seriously, I have debated about this issue with many people many times, but I still think what I think. If I have sex, that's cos I'm ready to have a baby, married or otherwise. Yea... And I don't believe in condoms. I don't know if this would be my mindset for life, but I can say, at this very moment, or at least for the next couple of years, this is how I think.


This was a stuff toy a friend gave me on my birthday. It now lies on my sister's bed. I'm not in contact with that friend anymore. It's quirky how things change. Once friends could be that close, but now, hai... He his handphone and all contacts in it. He messaged me online a couple of times asking for my number. I told him, "well, if it's fated that this is so, then so be it". I didn't give him my number. Why? I don't know...

Compare the fate of Dangles to that of Nicky. I never hugged Dangles to sleep before, yet now every night I have to have Nicky in my arms, even as I'm typing this, Nicky is by my side. I'm never a big fan of stuff toys. Every year, I seal a couple of them in plastic bags and throw them in a drawer with other plastic wrapped bears and whatnots, but Nicky lies with me... Why? I don't know...



Jinsen. I miss the days rehearsing for Oriental Suite. We have another performance up, but I decided against acting, I chose to do light designing instead. Why? I'm too tired. I want to have more time to myself, just as what Nicky's master said. Maybe it's a better thing.


This was taken in 2004 Dec. It's evidence that time is really harsh on some people. Those were the days when he was still very shuai. And those were the days when we didn't know each other that well. Sometimes knowing a person too well is not really a good thing. I think the more he got to know me the more strained our relationship is. Now we aren't even on speaking terms. hai... Another example of saddening change...


A very nicely taken photo of myself. It was a self taken shot, when I was still young and innocent. And this photo attracted a lot of attention for me and changed my life totally. It was the seed of my rough patches. Night has it that my emotions run really wild. Miss all of you guys...


I like this picture. I miss those days working with Laoban. Another milestone in my self taking photos. One might think that we were in Antartica or something dressed like that...


This was taken in a dressing room. In the end, I bought that dress, but until now, I yet have the chance to wear it. Another saddening change of times and people and relationship marks this picture. The friend I went with on that shopping trip, we've stopped contacting each other liao. Don't know why also...


I met Fann Wong while having dinner at Serangoon Gardens with my sister. We both took a photo with her, she was very nice about it. She's damn skinny. She don't seem that tall, maybe cos she was wearing flats, or maybe cos she was just darn skinny. Filming for Beautiful Illusions. I felt so fat beside her, and I was damn skinny at that time...


I was studying in school, lonely and hungry when my aunt brought me my favourite food. Kong Bak Pau and Roast Chicken which my mum left for me after they had family dinner. Nice~


The Yang Family. For our TS1101E. hai... Not in contact with any of them other than the girls from my clique...


This is what I always eat when nobody's at home. I eat this like once fortnightly... Not a very healthy diet, not just in terms of the food but also in terms of the lifestyle. I'm still not a Mac Delivery person, just a Pizzahut one...


My favourite dessert. Once my dad went to buy that for me just cos I got cravings. And after I complained to a couple of guy friends whom al did not bother anything about it. My daddie is my man sia...


Have I said I missed those times working with Laoban?


Studying in Starbucks Siglap. Will be heading there sometime soon again. Exam period again.


Behind the smiles were tears. A very ugly photo of us, pimple breakout and eye bags, but I still put it up, why? It's a milestone for all of us. This picture was taken during out ahma's wake. hai...


hai... Don't even get to see much of them even though we are in the same school same faculty. Rozie is even doing the same major as me.


This was taken in Cineleisure, pasted on their lifts. hehehe... Me like Takeshi~ He's so shuai~


Was I here?
In relation to the I was here outside the Esplande. Yup... This was together with the Astroboy art pieces.


He was my SP in Union Camp. Now, don't know where he is liao. Also don't know where are all my Union Camp mates are too anyway... hai... Think I've been hai-ing quite a bit liao le... Must be the night...


Just thought this look very nice architectually, and as a photo, also very nice...


Wo bist du? I like to ask that question when I don't get to see the said person. but I know, it's at nowhere. Not there. Left me all behind. Staring at the empty seat. Waiting... Waiting... And waiting... Waiting for? Ich weiß nicht.


I like men like Wubai. Mature, talented, a bit broody, nice hoarse manly voice. I once had a guy sing an Wubai song to me. In the manly voice... hai... Those were the days... Right now, I can only have CDs to listen to. And it doesn't help that he's married liao le... How I wish it was me whom he married.


Zhangting left us liao le. Need I say anything more?


Pedicure, to go with my manicure~


Imagine if your office window is that scene, won't you want to go to work every day? Damn... I'm so jealous of you Terrence! Not only as an intern you get your own office, you get an office bigger than my hostel room, and you get that to die for scene in your office window... Not fair~ That's a scene from The European Commission in Singapore. So nice those angmos...


That's me beaming like an idiot in front of the plate of the EC. hehehe... Just to prove that I was there.


Bizad's Western. wahaha~ Makes me feel so hungry just by looking at it. And comparatively, it's so so so cheap eating in the school canteen.


I was with my sister celebrating her birthday by making the both of us fat. We sat down inside hagen daz. We ordered. I counted my pennies, it was my treat definitely. Then my sister reminded me that I have a $10 voucher. hehehe~


I like Esplanade~ It's always so pretty to take photos of. I like blue. The colour of my club. I like water. The element of me.


Someone in my class carries the same waterbottle as me, just that it is of a different colour. Aren't the bottles just so cute standing side by side? Qoo is cute~ Me is cute~ wahaha~

I realise, over a dozen pictures in my current folder, as in the latest photos, are of my in bruises. Or rather, of my bruises. Think I've like 50 photos of different bruises. bleahz... I feel so tired now... Emotionally drained... Good night~
