Motion Blur (not HAZE blur!) ;P

since the city's been shrouded in haze recently, and my camera's been under the sheets for few darn weeks. an ex-colleague of mine just called and asked me if i m interested to join him for shotting tomorrow at Bkt. Jalil,and i had to decline him because im catching the movies tomorow! im going shooting next week hopefully, and i hope the weather's finer by then! i hate bleak, grey, depthless quality pictures.

pictures are taken sumtime last month before the haze craze, inspiRed by Motion! :)

a lantern festival event held at Puay Chai Primary School. Parents, kids throng in with lanterns!

testing my night taking shots here, i didnt realise someone running across till i edited the text earlier! i was standing very still taking this shot, with a very slow shutter speed~!

younger sis blocking her face from view, she;s camera shy By Nature!

blocking her face again with her favourIte stuffed Smurf! can u tell if its sHrinking or ExpandiNg?

a Car captured speeding past, leaving a trail of taillight behind! :)

@Prince Cafe :>

pics were taken last satuRday ( at a newly opened Prince Cafe in Ss2 ) maybe not so new, but since i am slowpaced, and not in tuned with my changing surroundings, i'd take it as new, siNce me and wen havent tried that place yet.

its my 1st time meeting wen siNce the prev time before i started work! we were at f.r.i.e.n.d.z cafe that time, with tyuen and jkhan.

we'd decided to make it a girl's nite since those guys been goin out but'd not bothered to ring us up as well

the place turn out to be very much like hyped-Hongkie type of cafes. the food was not bad, better than i had expected. as it was oredy past 9,we sampled on a serving of the Pork Chop burger, which is one of the top ten topsellers, (but unforch, the pics had not turned out well, so i'd rather not post em*)



i like wen's smoothie! the taste of strawberry is so fresh, yet tangy, yet not tasting like the concentrate type thats either too sweet or too sour.

yummy! and thats my Mango & Passionfruit Smoothie, the two flavours blends up to be a very nice chilling combination! the texture is fine-blended, and doesnt clump in icebergs. JuIcy! definitely not for the brain-freezers! i thoroughly enjoyed it, every Sip! :>

i havent been to places for so long, and i would normally shun places like Wongkok cos' its too noisy, this place is just right, wit the right ambience, lighting and decor wise.

we headed back home after ta pau-ing the Pork and Vege Dumpling Soup Noodle for my sis. its quite like the very famed Ramen in Dragon-i but the taste lacks in this aspect, bland tasting. im in for full flavours, with a certain ooooMPh or kick*! that is a no -no for me. my sis on the other hand find it okay and slurped it all up in a few bites!

i want so much to update Bali,but my photoshop has turned Cranky for now! it keeps hanging when i wanna edit my image sizes! Bali will be up as soon as photoshop's fixed! till then, hang on in there guys! :P:P see ya in a jiffy and a great weekend to y'all!*muakz*!

late updates.......

its my 2nd week of work in The Company to count today!!
i feel like i couldnt handle the traumas of working life yesterday that i told my mum my tastebuds are too tired they couldnt taste any of the d-Licious dinner she cooked.

i wanna wear off my bones off my back and beat them hard so it would pain so much, that it numbs the soreness i was feeling.... (such exagggeration!)

then Mum said, " Must ask Dad to get u a Massage Chair edi........"

woots!!!

i thought in commercials, it was the children who got their parents massagechairs instead~

i was like... *blimey* =S "......"


here are the overdue-d Penang pics( and its Day 3 out of 4day vacation) that i promised, i dont feel much like posting them, since they were so long ago, and i cant think of anything to write about either, it was ancient!

but i'll postie anyway, cos its been in the drafts for some time now, and uploading them was time-consuming so it will just be silly to hit the DEL button on the keyboard ( though in the back of my lazy mind, i AM tempted!!)lol

enjoy anyway! :)

our first destination, Bukit Bendera! its pretty serene and quiet in this part of Penang!! i dont see many flags though! :D

i like playing wit my 12x ZOOM function!!!! :) and here's the outcome wit a fast shutter speed!
atop Bukit Bendera using the century old cable train, it runs by clockwork i tink... lols


had our lunch here at the Bellevue Lodging atop the hill near an indian temple (which i missed out cos i was intriqued by a large mass of poo Kenji showed me, and i was SOOOO excited i forgotten a pic of it!!! .... wasted!!!!!) lols!!

flags billowing fiercely in the wind, dont blow my friends away!!!!! *Kelvin Kuah, Dee and Ryan Ah Yew*


Dee and the Brolly Boys (short for Um-bre-lla)

Clivey the other photographer decides to join in for a pic....

and followed by CheeWei who noes a thing or two about posing!

and suddenly Crowd dispersing!!!! where are these people heading too???

the Great Mountain Rattan, i dont see in ANY area particularly resembling the rattan plant!! it makes a nice subject for photographing though, capturing light that bounces off its texture, shape, repetition and rich colour!

the slender green thing could have been mistaken as a vine of this creeper foliage! we were told by the restaurant owner that there are about 4-5 of these slithering freely within the garden (and sue being the slithery-scaredy-silly, took a courageous step forward to snap this piccy of the frenly green snake~!) the pic looks okay, its head was turned away,its orite.. shy u see.....*yippee i feel victorious!*

a rare species of flower in my fav shade!!!! arghh, cant resist a close up!

@the Kek Lok Si Temple......

Wayne the Monkeying-all-The-time getting immersed in tranquility.. the gentle rushing of waterfall nearby, sinuous ripples caused by slow swimming koi fishes, (and mind, fat like him,, rofl)



my hand very itchy i noe......

and finally a piccy of the One Big Happy!!!!! im happy cos i stood out of the crowd HAHHAHA!

4days off!

i am applying 4our days off this blog, so u wont be hearing me in a while...!

the reason why is..

p/s :: and pray hard for me yeah. -_-''' dangz!!

30th June 2006 - Day 2!

On the very next morning, set out to look for breakfast along Gurney again(!?!!) had fried kuey teow with huge prawns, shredded crabmeat sticks, fat juicy cockles!!! very generous la the lady! ( i like every bit except the cockles, so Kelvin Kuah happily made a dash for them and finished all in one gulp!)

in the car, Wayne tries to get us all ready for a picture! we are all busy jabbering in the back.

on the 2nd try, he managed to coax a few of us to turn our heads at least, jabberings ceased.. Mr.Liew's face got cropped! heidi gets blocked by The Ornament and Kenji trIes to be the tallest (cos he noes he is nOT, haha!) and Wayne maintains the expression!

and the 3rd try,picture perfecto!!! Mr.Liew even manages a... L= Love? or L=Lame? sign. Heidi pokes her head in position, Kenji is feeling jubilant he still has the tallest head, and poor Wayne still MAINTAINS the expression. must have been tired waiting for us all! :P ;P

all of us in the back, doing what we do best, CAMWHORE!!!! :P

and thats my attempt of getting myself a self-portraiture, but alex poke his head in, and we have a landscape view instd! bweks!

we visited the Toy Museum which is located at Tanjung Bungah, strategicaly infront of the Copthorne Orchid Hotel. this is a place where the young or old, can find a piece of something which they can relate to! walking into this museum, u will reminisce of the times u used to own a piece or two of these toys. the guys are definitely so so so excited to come here...

there are so much to see, yet so lil pic i have taken! :) :) anyway, here are a few that i pretty took my time to snap. if u want Star Wars, Lord of The Rings, Power Rangers and all the boystoys i cant remember, be sure to look out for Kelvin Phang, half of his cam's memory are filled with pics of those!

and heck no, this scares the wits out of me! i cant relate to this, the movie makes no sense either!

sorry for the blindspots! its the only way to get these peep's face noticeable on the pic! its pretty dim in there at certain areas, be sure u are careful, and dont tread onto stray Gollums or Master Yodas. lol

okay, this Stitch is safe in the case, but its made of acrylic! im imagining an Experiment 626(Stitch that is!) coming alive at nite, pry the acrylic case open with his saw-like quality canines and creeps quietly behind people's back to tickle them till they get stitches.

maybe thats why they close at 6pm!

Doraemon! i like his blue bulbous oversized head! i reckon his solutions dont just come out of his magical pocket, they came out of his blue Bulbous out-of-the-world head! Cat without ears? Out-of-the-world-Cat! Blue Cat? .. wonder whats in the mind of the creator!!

porcelain, collective items dolls! :) the garments, headgears, musical instruments, the intricate details! :) wow!!

the blindspots again! i don have a polarization filter, darnedest! but it lends an assumption that Barbie is holding a wand on her right hand, or an illusion of a golden ray of light!

the Hello Kitties in their cutest ever! i like the pink dolphin and the pear/peach costume clad kitties!

more dolls...

and more Barbies... i like these exquisite,elegant, fairytale versions and strongly shun the bimbotic types. euws you!

introducing..... Boo! from Monster Inc! she's so adorable! me and dee aBsolutely aDores her!!!

Harry Potter's Collective Items! i don have piccy of Harry Potter as i much prefer him in real person. the doll-vers of him is not just as good looking. plus the doll of him sports a frown, i wonder why.....

Kelvin is all wide smiles as he came out of the museum! :) while Clive just can get enough.......

the posers, from left, Kelvin Kuah, Kenji, Alex, and Ah Yew.

Back at the Hotel......

bored in the hotel, no one wants to layan me!!! grr! random pics of the Mr.Liew's SE, he's nowhere to be seen, busy off sumwhere... i wonder where they are.....

so i found them, at the living area,noises and laughter! what are they doin?!?! having a cuppa?

found them with these!!! they look like agar-agar jelly dont they!??? the mahjong boys, they can stay in the entire day just playing mahjong!

so what is exactly so nice about mahjong?! and can anyone tell me what these mean?! :P:P i just see flowers and chinese characters.... what fun can u get outta those?! well well, they got their asses off finally, and headed to the pool rightafter! if its not the mahjong, its the pool! :P better the pool than mahjong then :P

here's a view of the poolside by our balcony. they have a soft spot for that area. they hang their laundry there u see. a few undies got blown off the railings and some end up in other unit's balconys! one turned up at the pool, another near the shrubs!!!! lols!

dinner@gurneydrive tonight! these guys had multiple servings over and over again. Char kuey Teow, Asam Laksa, Rojak, Ais Kacang, Fried Chicken Skin (yes fatty but very crunchy!), Tau Foo Fa..........

and repeat the list again for the 2nd and 3rd time! i wondered what they were doin in the pool earlier on....watching them eat is enough alone for me and Dee :P lols

filled to the brim, and a stroll along gurneydrive after dinnering, and a group piccy! this one's blur! :<

sorry for the ciplak nite piccy qualities, i came without a tripod and its difficult standing still with these peeps monkeying around! :P :P

@11pm - went to Batu ferringhi, initially plan to surprise and celebrate Chee Wei's 22nd by the beach near Parkroyal Penang but it was drizzling madness and we had to change our plans!

@a cafe near Parkroyal, Chee Wei sits down in front of his Lemon Cheesecake from Secret recipe....

thinking hard * what shud i wish for eh*
