I've been looking at the photos i have on fb, seems like i've been less and less motivated to whip out the camera in recent years.  maybe it's because i am jaded, or perhaps it's just pure laziness, but the new camera i bought a few months ago has been sitting comfortably in the drawer, not seeing the light of day.  i'm not even sure which drawer it's in, or whether it has already turned mouldy.  i know my boots have recently turned into a mould greenhouse...  i recall being trigger happy before, what has changed? i don't even like being photographed anymore, remember how i used to be a camera whore, gummy smile and all?  now it's mostly hao-e in pictures not just because i'm a better photographer, but also due to this reluctance i have to appear in photos.  i remember going through a phase of hating to be photographed when i was about 5 or 6 years old.  either i had my back facing the camera, or i was crying pathetically with mucus running down my nose, etc.  i absolutely detested taking pictures.  and then i went on a trip some crazy trigger happy cousins, who insisted on having solo photos for everyone at the same scene e.g. imagine - mountain in the background - if there were 5 people around, we would take 6 photos, 1 for the whole group, and 1 each for each person's personal photo album.  it took a crazy amount of time before we could move on, but the photos were really darn good.  i started to take photography more seriously and even joined a photography club in high school.  and then what happened?  i honestly am mystified myself.  

i must really put in an effort to enjoy photography again.

3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

Back To Reality

It's over! We're finally married (in the eyes of the Church!). It was really pretty fun last sat, thank God for the sunny weather (a bit hot lah, but at least it didn't rain till after), for the wonderful guests and my fantastic friends. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable under the sun for everyone.
