Busy Busy Busy

Canon Digital Ixus 80IS
Oh no this is not a review of the camera. It’s just a post for me to rant about this week’s madness. (And since I’ve not got any other photograph as yet that is vaguely related to my work, I’m posting this image which I shot myself with a homemade studio.)

Flipside Finale

Dynamic Duo: Jack & Rai Sing Superhero Songs (Singapore)
I happened to pass by the Esplanade this evening and caught a short performance by the Dynamic Duo and their guest guitarist. Apparently Singapore does have their music talents as well! I was impressed by their showmanship and musical talents…

Connections

The Mirror

Reminiscence

I see a silhouette in the misty mirror
Slowly disappearing as reality hits me
That this is a puzzle piece that’s hard to reach
Will I pick it up this time
Or search for another
I really am unsure
The futuristic mist is clearing
What or who is in it, I ask
Is it just myself?
Perhaps its simply my imagination

The Escapade

Today was my mum’s birthday, so my family went on a escapade around places which we haven’t been to for ages. We left the house at 10am this morning for the SAFRA Yishun Country Club – I’ve not been there for almost a year and a half. I brought along my camera, and the adventure [...]

Study Break

The semester study break is here. That does not mean holidays, however. I guess its just a simple break from school classes, but not projects.
