"You know the day destroys the night,
Night divides the day.
Tried to run,
Tried to hide.
Break on through to the other side.
Break on through to the other side.
Break on through to the other side, yeah!"
Lookout!that green boon keng flat gonna crumble into pieces!
nope.
that is just me and marlia first time,first roll Holga hands on.i thought it'll never worked,that we're just wasting money and time,but suprisingly,the pix came out distorted and funny,just like what we expected it to be..
bought the holga dirt cheap-$40,but the flash dead and the dumb ass dude who sold me the holga lost the 120mm back cover.all that is left,a panoramic 35mm holga.but sure it still could take pictures!
as far as i could stretch my mind back to my childhood innocence,apart from kids' flicks like Goonies,E.T. and The Monster Squad (but of course Star Wars but it doesn't fit in this category anyway..),i believe every lil soul who grew up with me(or like me)watching those movies,will forever be inspired and tried hard to imitate the action packed adventures in the most silly ways;like playing 'treasure hunt' in the tunnels of the monsoon drain and suprisingly still,apart from the common cuts and bruises,none of my fellow childhood buddies ever gone home and caught themselves with Hands,Foot and Mouth disease!ahh those glory days.. mischievous as always,especially over the weekends and during school breaks...
how can we all forget idolising Han Solo with whips---------Indiana Jones!!!!! yeah,dats right,he's back yo!
i rather save my precious money and wait for the big show-in weeks-showing in theatres near you!!!!!
p.s-don't be a miser,this is the kinda show you gotta watch at the theatre to enjoy the full touch and feel thang.and if you wanna wait and watch on net,hey, YOU ARE SUCH A PATHETIC LOSER!
left home a lil earlier today,i went out to peninsula plaza to consult the camera 'Guru' with the yashica rangefinder that i bought the other day for a mere $65,a classic chrome 70s electro 35.
was a bit worried when the previous owner told me that i gotta use 4 button cells wrapped it up with scoth tape and get a spring,long enough to get electrical contact,inside the hollow batt slot.
so last night i bought few types of batt,turned out was not good.
and i told myself,i had to go see the camera specialist.
so i was there earlier,the old man who attended to me looked wise;i bet he could strip a camera and assemble every bits blindfolded,he is the Yoda of the present time,i think...
anyway,i related to him what that dude who sold me the cam,he slowly stretched his wrinkly hands under the shelves and showed me a 6v batt(like AA batt,only slimmer and smaller),exactly the same as wrapping up the 1.5v X04 button cells together,told me the same thing,only additional tip was that i have to slip a one cent or 5 cents coin so that it could get the electric contact and flow.superb!
got back at work,first thing i did before checkin the mails,got em out of the box and experiment-TADAAAAAAA!!!!!!IT JOLLY WORKED,MATE!!!!
cool,now i can go electro retro!(don't tell ebok!!!)
Googled the song "Love Will Tear Us Apart" by Joy Division, and was suprised to see Nouvelle Vague,a bossa nova band (or should i say experimental..) played the cover of the above.instantly,i felt in love with the band already.
Vroomed down to our local HMV,couldn't get the track that they played,but i got something else.the one that i bought, have a another cover track that they recorded-"Truefaith."
Don't ya love it?
me and marlia goin out,i'm sneakin out from work to take pix- "A Lomography Evening @ Kallang Basin On A Sunny Sunday."
Have a shutter happy day!(Have a Shutter Happy Day To U Too!)
The weather is super Hot outside and at times i gazed up above,there weren't any clouds but big blue sky.had my shades on,shorts and sleeveless tee and my vans hi-top to match the killer sunny theme.
it's been busy lately and not enough sleep too.yes,my beloved team didn't make it to the finals,but truly,it was a hard fight at stamford bridge the other night.had to force myself to wake up at 3am,watched the game and had to report to work at 6am all the way to 10pm yesterday.my eyes were so tired and by the time i hit the highway,i had to speed at 120km/h to reduce myself from falling asleep.damn it was crazy.
this morning, i woke up feeling like a new man. was so bright and sunny.
cleared all the mess at work and now contemplating whether to leave work early or not.everybody looked tired and lazy,myself included.wake up!it's friday!
feels like goin' out and go trigger happy,but i didn't bring my cam along,oh such negligence!still thinking of servicing ebok's seagull tlr,but i wonder how much will it cost?sounds fun though.
been awhile we didn't go out and skate,kinda missing all the fun already,but my knee still in a bad shape,i should see the doc and see what he'll say.OH what!!!(still got me painkillers to soothe though..)
EVICTED!!
btw,i was evicted from the crib,was real shocked when i came back and the locks of the front and rear doors were replaced.so,i've no choice but to go home.poor me.*sob*
the media player is playing new order's Regret,Ohhh me fave...those memories of the past,how time flies.....
"I would like a place I could call my own Have a conversation on the telephone Wake up every day that would be a start I would not complain of my wounded heart
I was a short fuse Burning all the time You were a complete stranger Now you are mine."
i am not perfect in many ways.i've gotta work on weekends.i always believe there is 'somebody' watching me,especially when i shut the lights off.i hate long queues,traffic jams & last minute requests.i love confrontations.i'm married to a beautiful,loving and understanding angel.i hang out with filipinos who speak japanese.i love quiet places but i love loud music too.i don't remember what i wanna be when i was a child.i'm always a good citizen,i obey the law and i treat human & aliens with equal respect.i don't like cowboy movies.i love the wind blowing in my face when i'm speeding on the road.i am what i am and stop pretending you like me coz i know."You're crazy,sam!"that's what they said,and i just don't give a damn.(and it rhymes too.)
