Congratulations.!


Yup. This beautiful Dr. is my SIL! Attended her convo @ I.M.U last week. Coincidentally it was also my dads birthday (we celebrated it on 1st of Ramadhan, heppy belated daddy!!)

It was fun to be the photographer for the day. Just that I should have brought the Hot Shoe Flash as well. The pictures doesn't give me a nice exposure that I want. Overall the pics turn out good but not great. Need to practice more for 'capture the moment' pictures.







On another happy note, I had the opportunity of my life! I was able to snap 2 Great figures of Malaysia. Tun Dr. Mahathir & Dr. Siti Hasmah. Banggaa!! All my life I had never met these 2 important figures. The 4th and famous PM. O-M-G!





My SIL was given the opportunity by the University to give a speech on behalf of the students. It was a great and heartfelt speech (my tears rolled down), I'm sure your course mates and friends appreciate it adeque. In another 10 years time, they would look back and remember those kinds words you have said.

Anyhow, Congratulations to adeque. I am so proud of you... We all are...

Enjoy your holiday!! (selagi bolehsss)

Photo Mania!

Sabtu lepas, yes last Saturday. Me and hubby terjah Mid.valley on Saturday afternoon.My Our plan is to search for his baju melayu . Yes we are really, the last minute people but we don't want to shop during Puasa Month. Nanti malas tahap gaban dewa ria. But being my hubby yang sebenarnya tak suka pegi shopping all this crap small2 curry puff stuff. I had to give him some alternative or semangat to go shopping. What he usually say 'sambil menyelam kita minum air'.

Yes, Megasale. Kopaks the pocket!


After we went Kam.dar, Jus.co & Metro.J , we stop by here...



Because we want to go here...


Quite interesting really and I didn't want to bring my DSLR sebab i feel like orang kecik only . And there's soooooooooooooo many professional (all professional ke?) photographers. So I went there, act like small fry holding my cute point and shoot and shoot around. Yeah baby! The easiness of not lugging around 1 kilo Dslr around (er hubby said 500g jer, ye ke? why I feel its heavy) and taking quick and snappy pictures.

Brader, whose the papparazzi now? Muahahahah!

Well the, festival is great. Just that I dont have much kaching to buy anything. Just look2 at the pictures displayed , visit the booths and watch people trying to "capture" the moment feeling. I think 98percent of them who is @ the festival have at least A DSLR hanging just above or on their bellies.


Top-Top Brands

I would go to this festival again and maybe by that time, I would have gain enuff skills to go shoot pictures of their models (their models all kerempeng lah, not prewty enuff). But its for the competition! Maybe I could win something!... ...

Fat Chance lah.

Around Bukit Bintang and Pudu

I was on leave on Wednesday. Took care of the errands I needed to do and was done by 1230pm. What I did? Will blog about it laters.

Called up hubbs and ask whats his lunch plans. He wanted to go to Low.Yatt (again??). Oh well, me being -i-need-to-eat-nice-food-where-shall-we-eat-mode. I suggested to him , "lets have lunch at nasi ayam chee meng!". We reach KL by 2pm, I was damn hungry by than.

Seriously, I havent tasted any Nasi Ayam better than this (perhaps the best are home cook by my mom). I havent been to this shop quite sometime (note : very long time), as I dont have much free time unlike some people I know. *wink* Heaven lah this Chicken Rice. I remembered 1 week before I was suppose to deliver my baby we went to KL straight after doctor's appointment and reach there by 730pm. I told myself I needed to eat Chicken Rice as I don't know when will my next Nasi Ayam Chee Meng will be.




Owh, 1 Roasted Chicken Rice is RM 6.50. + Barley Drinks RM 2.00. Drinks are quite pricey to my standards. Or is it because I ordered Barley Ice? Oh well, after lunch we headed straight to Low Yatt for my hubbys 'cuci mata' time. Hubbs has a online business you could check his sales blog here.

Selepas cuci mata, I got myself a bag of 100g Famous Amos. Its quite pricey now days. Sometimes I feel its not worth it to buy. A bag of Pecan Choc Chip cost about RM 7.00. 18 years ago, it cost about RM3.50 or RM 4.00 for a 100g bag. The cost to make homemade is higher but I will get more cookies! Still must compare, eat cookies everyday= grow more fat, eat 100g once in a blue moon = could maintain weight yang tak turun2. Hehehe. It has its own pros and cons.

Next we when to Pudu area. To be exact we went to Pudu Plaza! Where the heck is Pudu Plaza??? Its such an old school place. Pretty much very quiet and not the usual shopping mall you guys go too. Even I was not confident when my hubby brought me here the first time last month.

But here lies a Camera Specialty Shop. I sendiri segan to enter because my knowledge of Camera hardware or technical *zilch*. I just know how to snap a good picture when I see one. So, when you enter this shop you'll see alot of photography buffs in this shop. Owh, I'm sure they could detect a novice photographer *meek*



I love to see the shops camera collectibles. Its totally old school, I dare not to take pictures of it. Takut kena marah. This shop is so famous. Checkout the men browsing their window display. Men and gadgets. Could never be separated. You could google the shops name too. I think they have online store as well.




It was such a quality time for me to spent with hubby. But, the perks for us is , at the end of the day we head home to see our prince charming!

Flying High~

School kids have been enjoying their holidays for the past 1 week. And for the past 1week, I have been seing kites flying high everyday after I come back from work.The sky looks gorgeous every evening.

I was very itchy to snap some pictures , so last Saturday, we went to a park nearby to join in the current craze of Kota Damansara. We already bought our kite2 weeks ago but couldnt find the time to play with it. Since, it was a beautiful Saturday afternoon, we all went out to get some fresh air and join in the crowd!












Overall, we had a great time so did my son who had a great time by running around like nobody's business. Penat nak mengejar. How was your weekend?

Earth Week

It wasn't as hyped as the 'earth hour' campaign that happened around the month of March. Earth Day came in quietly and this year its celebrated on April 22, 2009. To me, Earth Day is more on your own self reflection. Have you ever thot of what sort of earth you would like your children to live in the next 20 years?

I did and because of that I pledge to practice this 4R - rethink-reduce-reuse-recycle. I'm not going to preach you about it. Its quite simple to understand the meaning behind each word. Go goo.gle it. :).

Here's some snapshot of Earth Week in Ik.ano.







Ancient American Indian Proverb
Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.

My First Digital Camera

It was a So.ny Cyber.Shot D.SC-P.8. It was a small compact point and shoot camera. I loved it! I had to beg my mom to allow me to purchase it back in 2003 with the reason I need it for my college project.








Lil did I know that I would fall in love with photography all together. I think there was a time my friends was feeling disturb with my hobby. Snapping picture all the way non-stop. Back then, there was no such term as cam.w.hore. People were still shy-shy to take picture's of themselves in public. My kiasuness of taking picture by myself is because people who tend to snap a picture of me must have shaky hands and the end result would be a blur picture.

My love for photography sorta died off when my hubby changed my camera (since the old one sorta busted). He couldn't find the right point and shoot that I like. Every time I took a candid picture, the outcome is a blurry image. I don't really like to use the camera's internal flash that much, more on natural lighting.

The love, suddenly rise again. I dabbled into DSLR (it took me a while, because DSLR is damn heavy) It's my hubby's offcourse. I can't afford to buy one for myself. But, the joy of taking pictures and seeing the pictures come alive kinda put a smile on my face.

I wish to continue again my love for photography, that is the intention of opening of this blog. Hope to capture my journey - behind the lense.
