Earlybirds

Once again I am totally surprised.

Outing turn celebration turn costume party.
Laughed so hard today.
Thanks to Cin, Ian, Kase, Shawn, Jas & Kenny and Agnes!

My silly face on Oktokino.
And it’s funny because I never submitted. =P

Hmm.. Why is Coraline not in town yet?

Attractive website.
I hope it’s as good as Nightmare before Christmas.

On that note, I found something that was made older than me:

Secret backyard

I love exploring this place on my bicycle.

A quick ride away and yet it feels like a different world.

Things to spot at low tide:
- an ‘outdoor’ toilet
- an umbrella
- a dog
- a fishing trap
- malaysia

You never know what you may find..

I love Yishun dam.

Slumber

3.13am. The world is asleep..

Dreaming strange dreams..

Sshh.. Sshh..

Why am I still awake?

Annual Reunion Dinner (ARD) 09

26th Jan also happened to be my sister, Jasmine’s birthday.
Kinda poorthing because she can’t choose another way to celebrate.
But then again, she has got everyone to celebrate with her and she eventually made birthday wishes on three different cakes on separate occasions, so quit complain’n!

I caught news that for this year’s dinner one of my uncles has arranged for a professional photographer to take some formal portraits of our big family.
So, in an attempt to do something different, I decided to keep my digital camera at home and brought an instax cam instead.

Instant snapshots =  impromptu fun!

The only thing I didn’t anticipate was that some of the photos, after passing through one too many hands, went MIA!
But they all returned eventually.
People KEEP asking to keep the snapshots that has them in it!!  lol

So before I become responsible for starting a family riot, here they are:
(Please click to enlarge) Enjoy~ =P  

Playground exhibition in retrospect

For the exhibit, I shot the whole panel on a LCA with the different types of films.

Well, I’m not exactly an artsy kind of person so I had a quite a tough time. From racking my brains for a series of photos that will fit the overall exhibition theme to actual location shooting, and then there was layout and panel presentation. Nearly went abit nutty from the entire experience. Luckily nothing screwed up. Whew. Next time I’ll just focus on keeping the lomo fun.

Here’s a blooper from one of the rolls =P

Experiment – Part a

of childhood memories

in the sandbox

the flight dream

the feel of wind upon the skin

the playful kiss

Experiment – Part b

chaos reigns over you

the need

Mine would be maldives.

 Two childhood sweethearts, aged six and seven, eloped from Hanover in northern Germany on New Year’s Eve, determined to tie the knot under the African sun, police said Monday.

The pair identified as Mika and Anna-Lena “are very much in love and decided to get married in Africa where it is warm, taking with them as a witness Anna-Lena’s little sister, aged five,” police spokesman Holger Jureczko told AFP.

The idea for the romantic trip began when Mika told the two girls about his recent holiday in Italy, while their families celebrated New Year’s Eve together. “From this, the children began to make plans for the future,” Jureczko said.

As the first dawn of 2009 broke, the trio started to put these plans into action, packing all the essentials for the journey, including “sunglasses, swimming trunks, a lilo, summer clothes and provisions.”

While their parents slept, they left their house in the suburbs of Hanover, walked a kilometre (two-thirds of a mile) up the road to a tram stop from where they took a tram for the central station.

Waiting for a train to the airport, they aroused the attention of a guard who contacted police.

Two officers managed to convince the young lovers that they would struggle to get to Africa without money or a plane ticket.

As a consolation, the children were given a special tour of the police headquarters at Hanover station where they were especially taken with the detention cells.

Their relieved parents picked them up from the station, the spokesman said, adding: “They can still put their plan into action at a later date.”

Ahh. A sweet enactment of childhood dreams and young love.

Children have all the courage in the world to believe that anything is possible.

That cannot be said for many grown-ups though.
