~`yui!~

what a long break..haha
well finally i'm back though! yea..exams are all over and stress are finally subsiding..
i really love this song of yui's called goodbye days...it's so sweet with her innocent voice too! definitely i'm learning it on my guitar and singing it too!



did i mention that i'm in a band now??:P... well the band..it's not really official yet cuz we haven't have our first practise yet! by the way i'm the lead vocalist...so exciting!>_<
hmm..i havent done much photography nowadays though but i plan to go malacca this thursday!! i hope i'll make it cuz the other day the penang bon odori festival and gigs were a flop cuz everyone just pulled themselves off from going with me! so just like that...
and maybe i'll start working the next semester at mid valley's baskin robins..hope to nail that job..i'm in serious deep shit of getting money...
no not for buying gadgets nor clothes just well..i wanna travel,get bike license,upgrade my laptop,new skate shoes!

oh yea..today i thought i might have nothing to do cos it was like aaaalll my friends just had something to do and appointments..but lucky thing i texted lyndz and she was like~ ok! why not just meet up^_^~
so the greatest thing i did was finding her office the wrong way..hehehe..she asked me to llok for swiss garden hotel and get off the bus from there and her office is just near by..well me jus got the hotel out of sight and got down a few stops after and i walked all the way to her office..man! she laughed like mad..haha
after all it was worth it! i got to meet her after a long long time^_^

things are getting hectic so now i'm off to get my stuff done!

`~PUp~'<3

no matter how sucking your day mite be...even you jus stay around lazying the whole day in your room:D..somehow or somewhat it'll have a funny twist in the end..that's what i always experience and not forgetting today either...today was a wee bit different cos i decided to do something..haha..

i hate to admit but i slept the entire day today..seriously...and studied as well,u pretty much know what made me doze off...>_<
and my friends jus pop on and off on my messenger and all of a sudden one of my friend came on and had a really long chat,which was something different for the day..heehh..

i dont know what made me decide to go for a run in the evening but i did it after a super long period..yup! and for another twist i decided to take a different route this time and...guess what!! i found a tineeey cute pup!!! and at that moment i had some change(suppousedly i wanted to buy choco but...the pup needed more)so i asked my sis to go get some meat based stuff for the little fella..i should've stayed back to look after the pup but eventually i followed my sis..so happen by the time we came back to the spot..the little guy was no more there...hhuhuhuhhh..
my money gone to waste...

but so that was that and i was running home,both of us found another little pup he was in black and white patches..and so adorable!xD
so i guess God like gave me another chance..honestly i am no doggie person buuuuutt..i just melt at the sight of animals..hehe...i manage to get closer to him and my sis fed the food...i felt totally satisfied and happpiieeeeee^_^
darn rite i am!

i wonder what will happen tomorrow since it's gonna be busy for me..kinda dissapointed i cant go penang or malacca...but well i hope to go nitrus's gig on sunday..i fell in love with thier songs and music..looking forward to sum huge gigs ahead on the 6th august @ ruums and 18th oct @ bukit jalil..hope to be able to go there!
gotta kick up on my guitar skills and practise on acoustic guitar(borrow my friend's:P)..and sing, sing, sing:)
time to hit my books cos i gotta get through my exam this semester>_<

so glad !! i went to bon odori festival yesterday!!
it was awesome..and couldn't believe it that i saw that many japanese people in malaysia!
it was such a beautiful night the masushita stadium in shah alam was all lit up and the sky was all so clear with the cool breeze blowing..a wonderful sight!!
the festival started around 5pm..i kinda missed the earlier part cos i went there around 8.30pm..but yet it was well worth it!
when i went in there were japanese girls in their yukatas..it's sooo pretty! i wish i have one myself.i bet it's comfortable and i bet any girl would just look adorable in those:D..well the guys are cool too!
there were many variety of japanese food from sushi to ice cream and yakisoba(the funny thing bout yakisoba is i first got to know bout it from yakitate japan!..hehe)
the queue to get just the food took forever though the night was pretty breezy but the crowd makes it so hot and sweaty while lining up for the food.
so bout 9 they had a little dance..not so little cos everyone crowd around the main stage and dance..one thing that really amaze me was everyone just know the steps to the dance like clapping to the beat moving forward and backward..i guess u'll know it when u've tried dancing for a few rounds.. i'm not surprise if there were people that came around 5 and stayed till 9.30pm where the festival wrapped up..
i guess i cant wait till next year when i can go for another summer splash with my friends and bon odori!
so far this year has been good to me^_^
and i'm glad at what photography had made me become!

~RATTLeS` FoR ToDaY~

ahh today's another nice day well just like any other..minus photography:)
manage to meet my mechanic friends..i was intimidated by the number of people outside the workshop(it was after the class)...so well i jus walked by and well the lecturer had to call out my name..it was embarrassing though! and yea all the students looked at me...>_<...i dunno how i had the guts to actually go up to them the other day to ask for some snapping around:)..guess it's some miracle when my cam's out

i got to know the band that'll be playing on sat's gig = deja voodoo spells and temperal mental..i guess that's how the spelling goes..
but dang sunday always have to but the best ain't it...there'll be bittersweet and love me butch...waaaaaT___T...i like em'...but most of all hopefully i can make it for sat...

i miss all my friends plus i can't believe it my telco provider eats money like hell..cuz now i'm so outta credit...i wonder how am i to contact my friend tomorrow...
plus hmmm...nothing:D

i noticed it takes forever just to upload a pic..so well here's part 1 of my "award winning" pics that i took for my assignment..hehehh..it's just sum plain street pics though..but i really treasure the memories and story that comes with them....










kay then..
off to bed now..

~gIgS~

yaaay!! i'm actually going to one this weekend...
looking forward to it..it's gonna be at ruums,life centre at Bukit Bintang.
i 'll be going for the saturday one but i can't quite remember what bands are playing but it's definitely gonna be hardcore to the max xD..yeah!
but on sunday there'll be bittersweet and another band(which i forgot~>_<~ damn i keep on forgetting things now.. well i wish i could go but... i have my priorities for church :)
there'll be more on weekends to come till the 20th..i guess..
what i heard from my hardcore gig friend..loads of gigers are into photography! that's soo cool!! i'll get to know more friends..yippie:3

after the gig i'll be going to shah alam most probably...for bon odori festival..
omg it's freakingly nice this weekend!
it's gonna be my first bon odori and again most probably i'll be going to another one(bon odori) on the 19th all the way in penang..just for the sake of photography and experience^_^
according to what i've read in some sites bon odori festival is celebrated to welcome ancestral spirits and to have sort of like a memorial service for these ancestral spirits..so with the dance the music have to be in a happy mood. most of all the festival is to be held at night cos they believe the souls will return at night..

i really wanna find out what makes bon odori so colourful and interesting besides being a japanese festival and fun...gonna rock like hell..but first of all i've got to muster all my guts to go:D
that's all for now...
i can't sleep for these few days...and i dunno why:(

~`mY CouSiN's WeDDiNg'~

here's a glimpse of what happened on that beautiful day^_^

mechanics

these are the cool bunch of people i'm talking bout!
future mechanics..hope to see them on the race track one day^_~

the engine that made a beautiful sound..


spot the lecturer!


a portrait..henry was all out for it^_^

~SkATIng~

well,fitri and his crazy stuff


zack and his eagle pose!:P
~afyq grabbed my cam and took this>_<...blurrr...



afyq..


oh yea..naqeeb and his cool skates!


afyq again..haha



naqeeb in action^_^

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

jus after a super long absence from blogging..not that i really blog too..
i've captured a few nice pics for my collection and one of it is this skateboarding action i've taken quite recently when i visited my friends in nilai which is a really small and quiet town...
the one in white is fit, in green is naqeeb, the one in black with most of the skating action is afyq and the one doing ollie with eagle style(that's what he calls..>_<..hahaa)is zack..they are some pretty cool guys and i'll be learning skates from them too sometime soon:P
i miss hanging out with them!!

photography is some kinda great adventure of it's own besides reading story books..well first of all it's because you get to see people in their different elements- elements that they are comfortable in. second it's cos they are not what you think they are like some stereotypes will say skaters are delinquents and rebels but reality speaking they are not..they are just some kids that have their own style and probably far more talented than us!
besides it takes us out of our shell like making us more friendly and understanding and most of all forget our problems...there was once i was feeling disappointed, very dissapointed of the things that are happening around me..and i just took out my camera and walk home. on my way back i met a few guys that were working for a hardware shop and they ask me to snap their pic, almost doing that they told me to stop cos they were just kidding..hah..and after that they ask for my number.well some people are just so entertaining..of course i didn't give them! i manage to get some good shots other places though^_^

yea! i've pretty much made a couple of new friends on my journey and it's awesome..some i still keep in touch with them:)
and the best part i have a whole class load of cool future mechanic friends! and i'm kinda like their official photographer so on their celebration party they'll be having some barbecue and darn rite i'm invited...:D
the lecturer is just as sporting at first glance i couldn't identify him(until one of his student pointed out), imagine that!
ooohh.. i'm soo looking forward to it^_^..the party i mean!

overall, my pics that i took did give a really great outlook on the street people and the way they live their lives..cos not everyone can see them in what they do best and just as they are..
i never really like taking street shot cos of the business of the environment and the moving people that's making things go so blur and out of focus..that was a great challenge i took up for my final photography assignment..and i'm freakingly glad i manage to pull it off!
honestly i'd just fallen in love with this topic rather than taking nature,cityscape,portraits,conceptual..because like the saying goes the world is your canvas..paint it as you like and that's what my goal is!:3
