Tech Geek

Last Wednesday night, or rather, last Thursday, in the wee hours of the morning (1am), I called my cousin, Eugene, to talk about some gels that I wanted for my infrared photography. The topic of the gels led on to photography in general, cameras, photographic technology, and then it went on to torches... LED, Xenon, headlamps, hand-helds... When we hung up the phone, we actually talked for 47min... haha! And that was when I thought, he's maybe the only person who knows the technology that he's talking about, and is willing to listen and be teachable about those that he does not. And I feel really relaxed talking to him about such technical stuff, sharing my knowledge and his. There really isn't anyone else I know whom I can talk to about technicalities of cameras, of capabilities, of whatever la... I mean, I can tell many people but not many will be interested enough to find out more. They just want "the best"... of what, I dunno. Haha!

Oh wells...

Went to Elaine's house on Saturday for YAM gathering. Think it was abit sloppy, with regards to organization. Nobody was "in-charge". Then I think Elaine abit 不爽. Haha! But later on, things got better la... when more people arrived and programs started running. Had fun there, games, songs, BBQ... haha! Nice. I might join them in future.

And before that, I walked from home through Bishan Park, taking infrared photos of the park... in the hot sun. In the world of infrared, a completely different feel and view of Bishan Park was set before my eyes. Oh yes, I've set up a photosite, not dotPhoto anymore. You can click on the links when I put them up again to go there! For now, click HERE.

Oh yes! Friday! Good Friday... went for service, had lunch with Zhenhao, Tiff, Patrick, Dom Foo, Jeffrey (I think he's a Marist) and dunno the others' names. After that walked around until 3+, went to Auntie Cat's place, had difficulty setting up the new router for them, went for BS, had a splendid dinner with the youths, came back to do the router again, and was defeated for the night. The internet connection just doesn't seem to connect through the new router! Argh! Then Uncle Kenneth was like, "The computer beat you ah?" Hahaha! Yes, indeed, it did. But I'll be back! Yes I will... *grrr*

Oh wells... work's the same. But I got diarrhea this morning. Came in at 8:05am to do QT, then keep going to the toilet. I think I went 3 or 4 times, in the end, when my stomach settled down, it's 9am already. Hai. Will do my QT during lunch.

Lalalala! I'm bored... and I discovered I lost $50 yesterday when I did my accounts. And I realised I should have done it everyday so I know when I lost it. Darn! It's so irritating when you make the effort to WALK through Bishan Park to Junction 8 just to save that couple of dollars on transport, and then you find out you lost more than 20x the amount you saved. ARGH!!! Anyway, I'll waive the loss as loss. I still have excess from this month's budget. Idiot idiot idiot!

K... going for lunch already. Will update soon... I hope. =) Cheers!

Love me if you dare... 11:22
