Sentosa with Sunshine!

sentosa

Wow, it’s been more then a week since I last blogged isn’t it? Kekeke… It takes so much time and energy to turn on my computer after long days out that I really just can’t be bothered to edit pictures or write anything. Weirdly though, I’ve been penning my thoughts using ye ol’ pen and paper, which takes much less of a hassle (but at the sacrifice of aesthetics, seeing how fugly my handwriting is) kekeke.

Ah well, since I’m quite sick of editing pictures for work and am rather pleased with the pictures the boyfriend and I took with the Lomo Fisheye during our trip to Sentosa yesterday, I shall squeeze in some time to blog about the fantastic day out we had, albeit it being a short one :)

To be a shadow.

Wouldn’t it be nice to be a shadow, to not have an appearance and thus not be judged? Or would life just be a bore without all the different colors that are at present?

The best age to pass on.

The other day at my Gramp’s, my aunt was relaying the news to us that one of her friend’s wife had passed away whilst performing the pilgrimage in the holy city of Macca. Grandpa suddenly piped in and said, “I have been praying that I end my life there and yet she, who’s much younger, got the blessed opportunity.

What struck me more was that Grandpa is already considered to be part of they greying community and yet, even with all his sickness, he’s still here. That lady was only in her early forties (I think) and yet she has already been called to the meet the Creator.

Does your blog statistics matter to you?

For an ‘aged’ blogger like myself (and by ‘aged’, I mean one who has been blogging for yonks) and many others, seeing our traffic count rise up steadily throughout the years has always been a thrilling experience. I have to admit when my blog first reached the 100 unique visitors daily mark, I would log in to Statcounter every hour or so just to make sure the numbers would add up.

That, would be what I call obsessed and that, my dear readers, is very, very unhealthy. Besides taking up so much of my time, I became crazily attached to the numbers - “Oh no! Not a hundred! Why? What happened?“, reason being I loved the fact that 100+ people cared enough to read what I have to rant about and a dip in it hurt my ego real bad.

As weeks passed, the excitement gradually faded off when I realized that thousands of other blogs have the same number of readership, and for many, even reaching thousands. What I achieved is well… nothing. Until, the day Online Advertising came into my life, all exciting and enticing, like a whole new world to be explored.

Lomo Madness.

Since the brother joined some classes at the Photographic Society of Singapore and the Lomotion group, he has been coming home with many shots; digital and film. Some are good, some are normal but what’s for sure is that he has made my itch for photography return.

I really need to somehow get another Lomo (maybe the Action Sampler?) and one day, a DSLR to call my own. Money… money… money… Where art thou?

Train Tracks.

Choo Choo! Aren’t old school train tracks so darn cool? Reminds me of old school Mat Rocker music video! *Tak ku hirauuuukan panas mentari lagiiii demi cintaaaa ku rela menantiiiii*

Aren’t we so gorgeous?

HAHAHAHA! Amacam Bie, still love me? Man, I love the Lomo Fisheye!

Changi Airport T3.

Last weekend, the boyfriend and I postponed our Alphabet weekends due to family commitments. Since we had only a short while together and wanted to do something ‘exciting’ all the same, we ventured to Changi Airport’s Terminal 3 and were lucky that it so happened to be the last day for their open house.

Overall, I don’t think it’s all that it’s hyped up to be :/ Too bare and lacklustre, although the fact that most of the shops were not opened yet could be a major factor. Maybe I’m conditioned by the first two terminals that airports are supposed to be full of flowers, and colors. It just helps to lighten the mood abit, you know.

Following are some photos the boyfriend and I took:-

Pulau Ubin with the Totots.

This is SUCH an overdue entry but ah wells, like I always say, better late then never. Heh. It’s just that there’s an abundance of pictures to edit and I found it hard to find the time to sit down and work the magic of Photoshop. I don’t know why, but even without moving around much in the office I find myself zapped off any ounce of energy by 11pm nightly :/

Ah wells. Enough of complaining because in fact, I’m very thankful I’ve found a job which so far has not even made me think of grabbing a fake MC and that my colleagues are really the best colleagues I’ve had ever.

Livin’ it up in the backlanes.

Looking through the past few entries, I realize that I have been to Arab street to break my fast ALOT during the month of Ramadhan haha!

I think that place has secured the title as “Faddy’s favourite hangout” as of current time. Perhaps it is the lethal combination of the cosy atmosphere, good food, sheesha, great locations for photo taking and not to forget the fact that Sultan Mosque remains as my favourite Mosque.
