My day…

I have less than 24 hours to get to know Kampar before I actually start staying in here… but it turned out great!

I guess, many of you have seen this scene before…

I should stop taking scenes other people has taken… hmm… might consider changing perspectives again…

But this one, I’m so definitely going to shoot more macros… especially after rains…

 

After meeting Dr Chew in the office, she took me around the labs to meet a few postgraduates and staffs whom I will be working with for my Final Year Project… Yay!!! Excited and nervous at the same time…

Bus back to Kedah at 3.30 pm… and I saw this road sign…

YEAH RIGHT?! Got stuck here for almost 20 minutes…

 

At least I reach home safely… haha… Thanks for Jeff and HX for taking me around yo! and the late night basketball too… haha

I’m here… in KAMPAR… for <24hr…

I’ve hurt my hands writing so fast for the last exam paper… and NOW, it’s finally OVER!!!

Took the 6pm bus to Kampar yesterday and met up with Jeffery and Hao Xue. I’ll be staying with Jeffery for a while…

Also, there are some crazy things going on around this area – Westlake…

Some crazy people can start screaming and shouting at the middle of the night… And some others don’t even lock their doors!!! That’s crazy! They’re inviting thieves into their house…

Anyways, I need to give Jeffery’s room a complete makeover… wakakakaka… see how well I can do it la…

Till then, I’ll post some photos of Kampar if I have any…

Happy Birthday Pua Koon

Tzu Ching Camp in Malacca…

I just came back from the Malacca Tzu Ching camp… it was a great opportunity to learn and photograph… Here are some of the great shots…

First off… Rahman Tzu Chings…

Group Photo… Thanks to Yean Teng for taking this shot…

The low light condition in the hall really makes photography hard…!!! Thank god I’m using a 2.8 lens that moment…

My friend whom I met in High school went to the camp…

The photography and news report writing team…

 

学员’s 小队辅

The group photo for all 学员, taken by 学长 with ultra wide angle…

Some arts…

Many of the shots are taken with the big f/2.8… The bokeh was fantastic, the sharpness was beyond comparison, and the details of each shot is just astonishing… Most importantly, it allows shoot at low light condition…

Thank you 学长 for the opportunity to use the great lenses you recommended… Thank you 学姐 for the advice and help I can get… and also thank you to all the team mates who made all my photography opportunities possible.

I think I’d better think twice before purchasing the 18-200mm lens…

Trauma…

I think today I suffered quite a heavy impact…

Yesterday night was busy… just busy… answering calls, getting tasks done for the camp… studying at the same time…

Then I made a decision – wake up at 6 am to study… and I went to bed.

A few hours later, something woke me up and I ‘thought’ it was 6 am already… Went to the washroom, washed my face, sat down on the chair… looked at the clock… only to find out it was 3.03 am…

And I went back to bed… and started dreaming…

What I remembered was that, I was late for the EXAM!!! cause I woke up late!!! and I was 30 minutes late, but thank god the invigilator allowed me to take the exam… even worse, I don’t know what actually went wrong, to discovered that someone wearing green actually came into the exam hall 30 minutes before the exam ends!!!

Haha… crazy dream…

Thank god I managed to wake up at 6.10 am… and I didn’t wake up late… =D

Owh ya… I normally don’t want to comment about other people, but after I have watched the MTV Video Music Awards… and here’s my comment on Kanye West:

“You SUCK!!! Watch your ATTITUDE you JERK!!!”

Launch of Photo Blog…

It’s been a while and some people came back asking me to create a separate blog for my photographs…

I myself thought it was a great idea and decided to make one…

With hope that photo blog would be able to get some attention and business for me… haha… The photos featured there are better than those posted in this blog… specially to feature some great works of mine…

Do remember to drop by for a visit. Till then, Cheers!!

Visit http://cheongphotography.blogspot.com or click on the link ‘photo blog’ at the header of this blog…

Thanks everyone… your comments here are highly appreciated.

Nervous, nervous…

It’s been a while since I feel this way…

I’ve been nervous through out most of the papers…

Writing answers so fast till my hand hurts… It’s insane…

And basically every lecturer makes us a photocopier machine…

The joy of studying and knowledge gaining is no longer fun as before…

So how?

What I can say is that I shall do my best.

And to all others out there… try your best too.

It’s only a few more days till the end of the semester, and here comes the practical projects…

Brand new Layout…

I know I shouldn’t be doing this at this moment… I was a bit bored. So again, I’m switching to a new layout…

i) broader space for larger photos

ii) search enabled

iii) Fishy is transferred to the bottom for more ‘fish pond’ space.

iv) Hopefully, better organization.

v) Quick comment on blog post – like or dislike

If you’ve got any more suggestions, please do not hesitate to leave feedbacks for me ya! Thanks.

尽力而为。。。

我已经尽我的能力去做我应该做的责任了。如果还是觉得我做得不好，请过来帮手，不要在一旁说我办事能力差。

不是我没有用心去做，而是我根本不曾做过这样子的事。我能做的，也是尽力而为。。。

再此，感恩那些帮我的人，感恩那些来关心我的人。

Away for a few days…

I was away for about 2 days… so here’s what I’ve been up to… but you’re going to have to guess what it’s all about…

First off, someone wanted to celebrate his birthday in somewhere cold… so we ended up at a place with casino… :P

*I didn’t go in… cause not old enough yet… and not interested in gambling too… :D

So off we go…

The must have group photo…

The most professional models of all time… :D

Sceneries…

Some flowers around…

 

  

 

Now that you’ve seen all the photos… do you know where I’ve been?

Ah, one more thing… please do not try this trip if you haven’t completed your revision for the finals. I’ve done mine and still going through them several rounds. Please be aware of it if you plan to take any “big” trips like this… :)

Food…

Since this week is study leave already, I’ve been cooking for some time… and love cooking ever since.

The reason why is not because I can save money… haha… but I know I can control the amount of intake. I know the portion of food and the amount of calories I would be taking in.

By the way, limited edition, not going to find it in any restaurant… :P

No photos… sorry… scared that you wet your keyboard after looking at the photo… wakakaka

Discovery…

Today, I discovered that…

i) I have completed all the tests… woohoo!!!

ii) my coursework marks are quite low…

iii) I need to work very very hard in the finals in order to get an A

iv) I have nothing more to worry about, other than my finals…

v) I will be receiving something, hopefully in two weeks time… :)

vi) I would be heading to Kampar in less than a month.

vii) I am on diet and I still didn’t notice it… wakakakaka

So… I guess today is the start for me to prepare for my finals… please warn me if I spend too much on the internet… haha
