@eleanorng & @yu11us asked me to join them at a friend's art pad on Saturday evening. Saw a few artists painting, and that inspired me. I had a few canvases lying around, and thought, I might give it a try. This is the resulting experiment. Not too bad for a 1st timer eh! Will see what else I can cook up! Thanks for the inspiration guys.
Earlier this week, I asked on Twitter, which of the seven days in a week, do you hate most. Mine was Blue Monday, and Where-was-the-weekend Sunday. Well, I'm going through the last few hours of the latter, and not looking forward to the former.
Spending quite a lot of time on Twitter and My Brute this weekend. Checkout this really simple Online RPG fighting game. http://cheemster.mybrute.com
Well, sigh, gonna end Where-was-the-weekend Sunday with an exciting FA Cup semi-final game between Manchester United and Everton! Have a good Sunday evening! And welcome Blue Monday :(
Apologies if the video seems to be abit shaky, as there was this sibeh tall ang moh standing in front of me so I had to put my hand way up high for that 3 mins plus. I think I was much better off that poor Plus One. She could hardly see anything with the sea of heads in front of her.For those who didn't had the opportunity to head down for the gig. Here's one of three videos that I took.As all these were taken in HD, it takes me FOREVER to upload one video. More to come!

I'm actually typing this on the way back to KL. Yesterday's Oasis concert was nothing short of pure awesomeness. If only I had mobile web access, this would be posted up right away. Sadly, by the time this gets posted, it would have been many many many hours later. Inspired by cyber-red, here's my own haiku:
What's the story? Morning glory, The British boys were around, And boy did they rock the house down!
Packed was the freaking stadium, But hot it was not, Unlike our very own Stadium Negara with no air, no air!
Gigs are of pure awesomeness! But only if I go alone, and not "alone", Just so that the focus in on stage, and no where else!
Distraction is what i need, A target to achieve, A mission to accomplish.
Short fun trip it has been, Loving the island more and more, So lets not look back in anger anymore.

Someone on the Lomographyasia Forum posted this really cool idea of using instant film in a TLR. Tried doing it but the results were'nt that great. So what I did was experiment abit further, and loaded the instant film into my Diana F+ instead. The results! Same dreamy Diana effect, but you get to see the pic in 90secs!! The only shot that turned out right from the pack of 10films though. Lots more to learn.
Taken with Instax Mini 7s in a Diana F+, the image still has that dreamy Diana effect.
I've submitted this image in one of the Lomographyasia contest. If you feel like voting for me, click on the image to go the competition page. VOTE FOR ME!!! Thank you thank you thank you!
The awesome stage that was built by ClefWell, as mentioned in my previous post, Sunburst KL 2009 was just pure awesomeness. All the bad thoughts and cussing before the festival itself has gone out the window. Only until the very next day. The organisers got themselves into a lot of trouble when N.E.R.D. canceled their Jakarta gig (Sunday) on that very morning, citing that they did not want to experience the same treatment they had when they were in Msia. Apparently their passports were held on to by Msian authorities as the organisers did not have the proper permits for them to perform.Ah, who cares about that eh! As long as they put on a f'kin good show, and I had a f'kin good time! Hell yeah!Now, the organisers were in quite abit of trouble in 08's festival, when festival goers snapped pics of the artists on stage shirtless. So this year, they were really strict with the "No-Camera Rule". Funny thing is, they feel that only DSLRs are capable of taking pics that are worthy to be uploaded on the internet to be of a threat to them, hence compact cameras and every other phone that has a friggin camera attached to it is allowed into the festival! With a stroke of luck, and a few really good friends (who risked their lives), I managed to smuggle my gear in, and here are some of the pics on that night! ENJOY!
