Addicted To Lomography

Posted on July 2009 at about 1:26 AM by hwa

Recently I had been addicted to Lomography, it’s a kind of photography effect which produce a very high saturated colors and over exposure, more like an old film photo, but for me it’s more toward the way you take the photo and display it as part of your daily life.

By right a Lomography photo should be taken by using a film camera which is able to produce Lomography effect, like the Lomo LC-A by LOMO PLC, but the same result can be achieve by using software like the GIMP and Adobe Photoshop.

The best thing about Lomography is that you can produce the same effect by using software, with this you don’t have to use a very high performance camera, an automatic camera or even handphone camera is good enough, whether or not the image result is good or not, it’s depend on your image editing skills.

I had created a new album for this Lomography photos, it’s under the album named “Something For Nothing” well I’m just a beginner so please don’t expect to much from it.

Quotes Of The Day

Posted on July 2009 at about 11:44 PM by hwa

Something to share with you all.

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me or nobody is going to hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit, it is about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much can you take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that! I’m always gonna love you, no matter what. No matter what happens. You’re my son, you’re my blood. You’re the best thing in my life. But until you start believing in yourself, you ain’t gonna have a life.

– Rocky Balboa

New Pair Of Glasses

Posted on July 2009 at about 12:45 AM by hwa

I know it’s already been more than a week but still I want to blog about this, it’s about my new pair of glasses.

I bought my self a pair of glasses the week before last week at 27 June Saturday, the decision was made so suddenly, I was thinking like “How long since the last time I changed my glasses, 3 years??”, then I called up my friend and asked him to go 1 Utama with me.

Initially I planned to get an Oakley glasses, but found out that the designs are too extreme, they are mainly for sunglasses, and the price also too much for me, around RM1k for a pair of glasses, I say screw it.

So I keep looking for other frames and found this one from Japan called “Less Than Human” which I never heard before but the design is very nice, so without thinking much I bought the glasses, it cost me RM625 after some discount. 😛

The box is made out of wood and to me it’s looks like a coffin, maybe that’s why they called “Less Than Human”? 😆

Michael Learns To Rock – 25 Minutes

Posted on July 2009 at about 3:28 PM by hwa

I really like the beginning part of this song, while most songs have their up beat part at the chorus, to me the starting part is the best.

Artist: Michael Learns To Rock
Title: 25 Minutes

After some time I’ve finally made up my mind
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I’m searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I’m sorry ’bout the things I’ve done

I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn’t search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she’s crying while she’s saying this

Chorus:
Boy I’ve missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twentyfive minutes too late
Though you traveled so far boy I’m sorry your are
Twentyfive minutes too late

Against the wind I’m going home again
Wishing me back to the time when we were more than friends

But still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn’t search
She looked so happy in her wedding dress
But she cried while she was saying this

Chorus:
Boy I’ve missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twentyfive minutes too late
Though you traveled so far boy I’m sorry your are
Twentyfive minutes too late

Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said

Chorus:
Boy I’ve missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I’m sorry your are
Twentyfive minutes too late

I can still hear her say…….

WP Wall

Posted on July 2009 at about 4:52 PM by hwa

I got a brand new shout box at my sidebar, I’m not using my old ShoutBox plugin anymore because it’s too old. Anyway my new shout box plugin is called WP Wall by Vladimir Prelovac, but still I’m going to call it ShoutBox anyway.

Certainly this one is better than the old one, it’s running on AJAX and easy to customize, and the best part is it doesn’t use it own database, instead it using the WordPress build-in comment, so every shout out will be saved as a new comment.

So if you guys want to comment anything and it’s not related to any of my post, please do so in my shout box, thank you!
