Lazing at home...

They should be gathering to kayak right now... *bleah*

And tonight, Jun & Karen would be going for the "Just In: Timber & Lake" concert... haha! Karen! I know it's too late to blog now but, DON'T STRIP IN FRONT OF HIM!!! =D

Anyways, the morning has been a lazy, cooling one... The intention was to go Upper Peirce with Shi Ting to take photos... She needed a morning call at 7, so I woke up at 7 to call her... When I woke up at 7:30am, the sky was seriously overcast, so I called her again and found out it was pouring in Yishun... So there, photoshoot cancelled... *sigh*

Yesterday, I sorted out 93 photos for my supposed-portfolio. The theme is Tiny Nature, or something along those lines... mostly macros of insects and flowers, occasionally small reptiles. I wanna get more photos before developing them and buying a proper album for it. So yes, more macro outings! Anyone wanna join me? =)

Speaking of photoshoots, Bingjun & I just accompanied Anqi last Sunday to hunt for her camera. She settled (wisely, I must say) on Fujifilm, deciding between the F40fd and the F50fd. She, of course, was leaning towards the F40 while I, being more of a photo enthusiast than her, was leaning toward the F50, which has more manual controls and better picture processing. The price difference: $30. I don't understand why she'd want a lower spec-ed camera for $30 less... haha! But oh wells, to each his (her) own... Of course, once she decided on the F40, we hunted around for the lowest price for that cam... and we settled for what was it, $430? Camera, screen protector, 2GB SD card (yes! Fuji has incorporated the use of BOTH SD & xD!), extra battery that would theoretically last longer than the original, and a soft case. Not a bad deal, I must say... 8MP (right?) and SuperCCD... nice. =)

And my dad bought my mum a laptop! Hahaha! Gosh! It's Vista! She's still ultra unsure of XP and now she wants to jump to Vista?! I can't help her much on that coz I don't like Vista... Oh wells, too bad. Haha! So right now, my desktop is being reset to factory settings. For what? I don't know. Everyone has a laptop now... so the desktop is quite redundant actually. 256MB RAM only... I think I'll use it for playing games... haha! Those old school games that don't require much RAM... Puzzle Fighter!!! And hmm... Twinsen? Dungeon Keeper? TIM (read: The Incredible Machine)! Ermm... Crusader, Marble Drop, Crystal Caves, Bitmap Brothers: Magic Pockets, Loderunner, Bug!... etc etc. Yep!

Hmm... tonight Bernice is treating us to dinner, coz she got her first spendable paycheck. So nice of her hor? I wonder if I'd ever do that.

Last week I told her I'd come, but today, I don't feel very people-y... I just wanna be alone... and... *sigh* I wanna take photos. Maybe I should've gone to the Botanical Gardens with Shawn & Jiashan & Phi & Ian... But if Ian followed me around, he'd chase away all the insects. Haha! And they'd be stuck at the new playground mostly. No... maybe I'll ask Shi Ting if she wants to go later...

Back to my emotions... Is there an explanation why sometimes we (coz I know it's not just me) just wanna be alone? I can't think of any except maybe, coz we often spend time with acquaintances and them being acquaintances, we are superficial... and we just need some time to be natural... be ourselves, let our guard down... Psychological release?

I'm thinking too much, aren't I?

I wanna cycle... Ubin... *sigh*

Oh! Meiji Fresh Milk tastes oh-h-h so yummy! I'm thinking if in future, I should just stick to Meiji or try out the other brands. It's creamy and milky and... and... cow-y? Haha! I dunno... it's the closest I can find that tastes anything like Woolies or Coles milk. Haha! At 2x the price though...

And I still love Fruity Pebbles! So artificial! So sweet! Like Froot Loops... haha!

K, if u realize, I'm just typing because I have nothing else to do already.

I shall go tend to my desktop.

G'bye!

Love me if you dare... 12:18
