Photography? Or lepak at home FB'ing?

Ok fine, I've been away from my camera for quite awhile now, and I'm raring to get back to it, and to kick it off, probably wkhai's shoot thingy something something... I'm quite looking forward to it cos I believe it will challenge me to think in different creative ways to achieve the result I want.

But then again, I am worried that I do not live up to my own expectations and it would be a waste. But as always, challenging oneself to be better has always been my passion, and I have my own secret reasons to want to master photography =P

So yeah..it will be a good day out (I hope =P ) after my exams, cos honestly, my exam schedule for this semester SUCKS!! Seriously! 5 papers all on 5 different days, ALL 2pm-5pm, the perfect time to fall asleep in class.. First 3 papers are on the first 3 days of the exam period, and the last 2 papers on the last 2 days..WATAFAK?? Babi betul... Can't even relax in between or have an early semester break... The unchanged schedule was FOUR papers in the first TWO days, and that leaves 1 paper somewhere in between.

That would've been better so I can holiday earlier and have an extended sem break but NO... They decided to drag my exams out for the whole duration of the exam period... Cis...

Ok back to photography... I shoot SOLELY with a 50mm f/1.8 on my THIRD HAND Canon 30D (woot!) cos I'm a cheapskate... Ok fine, it's actually the only lens I can afford at the moment >.< But whatever right? I got the lens cos I am only doing portraits now, and it forces me to think about composition more as I can't zoom in/out whenever want to. This wonderful prime lens (Canon's CHEAPEST and LIGHTEST lens....) has I believe, made me a slightly better photographer than before, although I'm nowhere near the level I want myself to achieve.

I've become so used to this lens that if you give me a kit lens for example, I would be stumped on how to fully utilise it... I just go "Huh what?" and then switch back to my 50mm =P And as a prime lens, my only zoom is my legs, and I can say for certain that getting u close with a short lens creates quite a different effect than zooming in tight with a telephoto lens. There's a sense of closeness zooming with your feet, a certain personal connection in the photograph.

But that's just my 2 cents.

Anyway.. That's all for now I guess. Till I have something more interesting to share.

How to change your WoW UI

You know what, I have gotten really strange traffic from Google searches and decided to see what they were searching for that lead them here.

And lo and behold, It's something I don't even HAVE on my blog!

Go do a quick search, type "how to change my wow ui" into Google. See that FIRST link waaay up there? Wtf? It got bumped all the way to the top for no reason!

And you know what, since there's a million people who see my site from that amazingly common search, I AM gonna make a post on how to change your WoW UI. Full of pics (hopefully) and stupid comments to finally appease the monster traffic from random Google searches.

God is so real!!

God is so real! You wouldn't believe me even if I told you. My very close friends would know that I was having a relationship crisis the past few days, and today, I knelt down and cried my heart out to God.

I said, God, you are a God of healing, please heal this relationship and my heart, you know how much this means to me. I have never asked much from you God, but please show yourself real, right now.

And BOOM! Before I could even say Amen, I received a SMS that solved everything!!! Praise the Lord!!
