tiramisu

going up the hill again and now doing the showflat. this is so sudden cause just the other time i was just happily doing the development around the river. but anyways, bring it on!

had my first go at making tiramisu and it was perfect. the second try was terrible. i wonder what went wrong. but anyways, i shouldn't make it too often. secret weapon!

the weekend ended and leaving me wanting for more. it was good. good sun, good light and good shots. am so
happy i did it.

rest and relax

nick harriman, my last post is a freind of mine that have been travelling the world to teach. not only he teach, he takes beautiful pictures as well. i would be posting some works or pictures from others from now on. i figured, lets not make this blog all about me.

works that i would plan to feature here would be art, paintings or pictures form. most importantly, i know these guys and thought that it would be nice to have their work shown here on my blog. nick was the first to agree putting up his shots here. others in the pipeline at the moment would be chiok and albert.





still haven't got round to plan doing studio shots. maybe i haven't been inspired the whole time. to you all out there, give me a tingkle!

a day at the races


wanted to do a series of pictures so badly. actually, had planned to shoot some pictures of hospitals. i think that would be good but afraid there would be some security problem. not that i won't do it, but not just yet. must find a good reason to go.

i like this shot here on the left. it was taken during one of the boat races at bedok. thanks to chuan cheng for informing me the event. it started off fine till the rain poured on us followed by an unforgiving heatwave. i can feel my head pounding and that was when i dissapeared without even telling my friend that i'm gone.

anyone have a title for this picture?











feeling alot more relaxed and better than a few days ago. it helps talking it out to some friends over dinner. oh, by the way.... that was abit too much for dinner. i think it was the batter from the fish that made me full.

another wedding coming up and i'm almost all geared up. looking forward for the pre wedding session soon.

anon - john taylor


had an encounter with a few last minutes cases some recent weeks back. some may say that it brings out the best in you and resistance level gone up, but for some, it's just so tiresome and most dangerously breakdown.

dug up my photo bank and found this one of a friend. i think i did a series of them. i like doing potraits and i haven't been doing them for a long time. hope to get back at doing this. haven't got time to do studio shoot and putting together one really soon. hope to showcase some of my work before i leave.

sheila majid loves me!

finally, it's over. i'm getting my life back and it feels great. woke up to a refreshing morning for the 1st time in weeks and head off for some pampering. yea, i got myself a spa treatment and felt like jellyfish after the massage.

went home to get some rest, i mean sleep cause thats all you want to do after a good massage. was woken up by a rude alarm after that. then i realised that it was a reminder from my mobile phone for a show at the esplanade. i've really got no idea that it was suppose to be that evening! but i knew who i was bringing for the show.

the show was awesome. she's simply ever so elegant! really....... and the way she captivates the crowd or me and i was like a kid all over again. oh man, i love her i love her i love her and i just dieded, when she tells me that she loves me.

(click on picture to listen to sheila majid's, Dia)


not only the show was good, but i'm happy cause it was at the esplanade. there was even fireworks before the show and happy to know, that it was a sell out, full house show! how i wish she wants me to shoot for her studio sessions.

i will take the memory of the evening with me for a long long long time. thank you sheila and thank you for loving me!

it's that feeling u get when you see fireworks


the kind of feeling you get what you want. c'mon...... u know it. u know you're a lovie..... this fireworks reminds me of that eighties tune from icicle works and of course the duran video from south of france. (thanks Noi for the nice view from your office)

(double you) i'm so TIREDDDDDDDDDDD

i don't know, all the time it feels that i'm writing for no one and pictures for no one... but sometimes it feels good to know that ppl do stop by at my blog to look through. and to read it....... wow! thanks nick! remember tiramisuuuuu. thanks for all the articles but i have to say, it's heavy.

(shake up the picture, with a lizard's mixture)

burnt chicken wings, had some not so bad ones with salmon on green peppers. yum yum!

new habbits & bad addiction


found myself eating more fruits these days. which i really don't and a big no no for me. not that i really love to but i think i have to.... i actually prefer veggies to fruits anytime! i don't know, thats just me.

my addiction these days would have to be coffee. i like mine black with no sugar. i like the bitter taste in it. 20/20 ran a story on coffee just the other day. it said that some expensive coffee's in america may not be the best coffee. but my take on it would have to be, it depends on what sort of day you have. sometimes you just feel like having a kopi o from the coffee shop in a kopitiam. sometime u feel like having instant coffee from the vending machine..... or sometimes, you'd like coffee which is ...... nicer. (cappucino, latte's or ice blended coffee)

got a booked session with a football team this weekend. this is my first time doing a big group photo session. got the brief from the manager some days back and i'm quite excited about it. but what i told the manager was that, i won't shoot if it's raining and if the pitch is muddy with puddles of water.

just told hsiu, i don't mind going beijing to shoot. junhau, i'm coming laaaa. just get me the models... i think by the time i get there, you'd prob. have lottsa girlfriends there. i'm commmmiiiinnnnnnggggggg!

if i listen close i can hear them singers, ohhhh ohhhhh ohhhh

indulgence

my friend nick somehow got to promised some of my frends and myself included for some tiramisu.... i don't know how it came about. but anyhow, i was telling them, i know this girl Yve who can do beautiful tiramisu and she should consider to making it into a bizz venture! her tiramisu was really good. now, i don't mind having her tiramisu! ok, back to nick, when are you making your tiramisu debut? got this out of my computer and i think this should be starbucks tiramisu i had. just don't ask me which outlet.

bought another ticket for another show at the esplanade. actually, there's alot of things to do around there.... there's performance at the outdoor stage, you can dine there and have a few drinks. take shots of ppl or just talk with someone. ofcourse, someone you know. it keeps reminding me of Oil, my friend from thai. she can talk to just anyone she meets.

during the period of my reservist and the time before i fell ill, i actually wrote somthing in my note pad. its like, i always have this note pad with me all the time when i'm in the summer green's collection. i realised i have actually written a song. yea, maybe simple or maybe hard, but i actually wrote a song complete with chords, bridge and chorus. now, how can i get my friend to agree recording this for me. yea, i know.... got to pay his time and studio. should i?

alot of things lined up for me till the end of the year. putting together a shoot for a friend who's to shy to do outdoor shooting. i'm cool with it but i hope the couple are open to my ideas. i think shouldn't be a problem but i just hope we would go with creativity.
