365

2009 was a good year, I guess. :)
Yi Wenn wrote that on the wall btw. LOL.

I made many new friends in 2009. Most of which I truly enjoy spending my time with. My classmates, Kaki Blue people, T4YP 09 and others.

I improved as an individual as well. I learned more about myself. What I can and can't do, my limitations as a friend. I can't really explain what I feel overall, but it's just that general happy feeling about yourself. I really hope I get more of that this year.

I'm turning freaking nineteen this year. That's how old I'm gonna be in about 10 months time. Sigh.

TWO ZERO ZERO NINE.

I just realized a lot of people are taking up Project 365. But I'm not. Should I? LOL.

lightroom

Chaozhou back alley. In front of my uncle's house. :D China.

I guess I went *a bit* overboard with Adobe Lightroom. I just downloaded Lightroom 2.5 an hour back and maaaan, kinda confusing at first but it's fun to play with.

It's so much more easier to edit photos with Lightroom and Photoshop. I kinda regret not getting it earlier. I'm gonna start getting used to using Lightroom from now on. Uber amazing program!

Anyways, off to bed for me now. Editorial Board meeting at 2PM today. D:

College starting again next Tuesday! SO EXCITED. :D

The post above was written at 12 something in the morning. Hence, this one below is the morning post. :D

What I did for Christmas

..was that I was hanging out with my family in Chaozhou, Guangdong, China. :)

Of course, my uncle's birthday fell on Christmas day as well. Major coincidence, but we had very very good food at Baker's Hotel there. Traditional Chaozhou food. Familiar to me cause I kinda grew up eating those food. xD

But since I spent my Christmas in China, I didn't do anything Christmas-y apart from the family time. So, I bought myself a webcam. But I haven't used it much since I bought it, except for my new MSN Dynamic Display Picture. xD

I was feeling like shit this morning, after dropping off my mom at work cause of the horrible, horrible traffic. The camwhore in me decided to take over. I guess it's like a self-defense mechanism. In order to save my camwhoreness from losing out, it took over me and I had the compelling urge to camwhore.

It's all true, believe me.

I printed this out on Monday, at college.
I printed another one at the printer shop thingy on A3 harder paper.
RM0.80 for the paper and RM3.50 for the printing. I need a cheaper printer shop. D:
It's for a wedding gift for my friend's wedding next Sat.
Keep it a secret aite. :)

Feeling a bit moody, hence a moody pic. Can't blame me now, can you? :D

..and yes! Bloody hell. My legs are huge. HAHA.

Meh. Editorial Board meeting at 2PM later. I'm so looking forward to it. D:

kong

Taking the train to Mongkok (Hong Kong) was pretty awesome.

It's good enough that we didn't have to follow a tour guide. But traveling to Hong Kong by train? I don't think you'd get that with tours. xD

I wish I could've brought some back but I didn't buy any in the first place. :P

The roads were pretty crowded. Just like Chow Kit. But my mom posed anyways. :)

The street where I got my jacket dirty cause I squatted to take this picture. =(

After walking around the north part of Hong Kong, we stopped at the mall on the right to go weewee. :D

But meh. That place reminds me of KL. I did enjoy everything else though. The time we spent looking for a shop to eat WANTAN MEE. The wantans are the size of a golf ball. Bigger, in fact.

The ones back in KL? The size of my thumb.

chaozhou

A bridge in Chaozhou. Where my ancestors lived.

China is a nice place. Especially when you don't have to follow a tour. I spent more time with my cousin's family though. China isn't that bad when you have relatives there. :)

My nephew, the glutton.

My uncle, the birthday boy. :)

1/2 Shutter speed without a tripod. I damn giler babi proud. xD

The booms at Tropicana City Mall.

Blue fireworks. So special. :D
1/2 shutter speed without tripod! Heh. ♥

Happy New Year! :)

A lot of things happened this year. Some that I'm proud of, and some that I'm not. It's kinda stupid if you regret doing those things, but what's the point of regretting?

Time doesn't rewind just for you. You might as well plan out what you should try to do to prevent it from happening again in the future. That's what I think.

I'm not about to list out the various things that I've done throughout this year, nor do I want to boast about the achievement that brought me thus far. I've still got a long way to go. 20 odd days more to my AS results which I'm deathly afraid of. I didn't do my best and I think it'll bring dire consequences to me. But too late for regrets, huh? :)

Too many things to look forward to this year. I really can't wait for the end of 2010 and sit in front of the computer, looking through the pictures that will bring these changes for the new year.

Have a great new year, everybody! :)
