Tu Fa Qi Xiang

And so, the creativity never ends. Like this picture? Caught this on my Nokia 7610 sometime back. There’s rarely a chance when during my MRT rides do I come across something that catches my eye like that, really like the meaning of the picture. A bummer I didn’t bring my camera out with me on that day, so I just merely took a shot at it with my handphone cam instead. Turns out to be pretty good, and I like it, and I think it’s my favorite photo I have taken so far with my handphone camera.

Anyway, I’m pretty sleepy as I’m typing this, didn’t realised it was THIS late as I was busy chatting with Lydia on MSN until it struck me that, she said she’s having morning church service tomorrow at 9.30AM, and I was also supposed to wake up for church service tomorrow. (-_-)” Oh my, I will definitely look like a walking zombie tomorrow, lmao. So while I’m busy chatting with her online, I figured that I would do some updates for my blog, before I head to bed. So tadaa, here I am.

Anyway, some good news and bad news, either way it has affected my life drastically. Bad news first. My 3 years old Canon IXUS V3 PNS camera has finally broken down. Something was wrong with the CCD censor, everything shows up distorted whenever I tried to take pictures with it, though the lens and LCD screen are still alright. I haven’t called to make an inquiry about what’s the cost to fix it, but it definitely ain’t gonna be cheap, knowing from my camera experience. So time to settle for a DSLR? I was hoping to, but I really want something small and sleek to bring out, and yet takes decent picture with manual controls. Oh well, guess I can’t have best of both worlds. Need to make up my mind fast, it’s either Canon IXUS 700 or one of those Nikon or Canon DSLRs. Either way, it’s not gonna be a cheap investment for me. Was thinking if I really have to buy a new camera, I might have to work part-time to pay back my parents for it. Didn’t really want to splurge on something so expensive and yet rely on my parents for it, I really prefer to work it out by myself. Hrms decisions decisions.

So what about the good news? Well the good news is, I’m finally catching Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith (Digital) next friday, at Cathay Cineleisure. And that’s like what, finally? I had been waiting for this movie for like months since it was announced, with all that trailers on-going and showing, my anticipation for this movie is definitely very high. I’m really hyped up for this movie, and I really hope it doesn’t fail my expectations. And I’m also actually feeling very sorry, cos Jeremy and Kaiwei actually wanted to watch this with me, but I had to reject them cos I had already promised to watch with my other friends. So I’m really sorry about it if you guys are reading this, promise will catch up with you guys soon if there’s a chance? ^ ^”

So things aside, I recently caught up with Liz over MSN. Haven’t like chatted with her for quite a long time, since the last time when we chatted, was like years ago when ICQ was still in its ‘hey-days’. She’s actually an online friend of my, whom we share alot of akin jpop music interest and cultures alike, and not to mention both of us are actually very ardent ex-SPEED fans. So we were like catching up on each other lives, and oh my time really flies. Anyway, found out she has abandoned her erikogenki project ever since Eriko Imai got married (read: kakkoi) and her official FC in Japan was disbanded. Since that she has started her new project, which is about Goto Maki. I haven’t been keeping with Maki-chan activities, but it’s good to know she has changed so much ever since she graduated from MM and went solo, she looks so kawaii now and pretty slimmed down too, which is a good thing. Anyway Liz was nice enough to provide scans of her latest PB for me and I was really elated after seeing Maki-chan’s latest photobook works, she looks really really gorgeous and has this really ‘alluring’ aura around her now. I have attached a pic below of her latest PB’s front cover, do take a look.

Anyway, I went shopping at Queensway last Sunday with Jimmy and gang, was particularly hunting for a new pair of Nike shoes. My current Nike Air Jordan IX is pretty much fucked, the bottom rubber actually came off. I can still wear it now, but it looks and feels really weird, and I don’t like it. So I’m on the quest for a new pair of Nike shoes again, after all it has served me well for abt 3 years. (ironically the same amount of the time as my camera, bah) And after some shopping and searching around, I finally came across with 2 pairs of Nike shoes that caught my eye, and after some searching around, I found out they were under the Nike Vandal series which features some of the nicest shoes designs (and with leather, waterproof editions etc) that has ever graced upon the Nike label. Unfortunately, they were not as cheap as the online prices that I found here, but I guess that won’t stop me from buying it. I took some pictures of the designs that caught my eye, perhaps lemme know how you think of them? Will be getting either one pair of it later this month.


Guess that’s about it, it’s almost 5AM now and I should sleep. Oyasumi minna and take care everyone! (^_^)ノ”"

  1. That’s quite a nice pair of Nike…I would say go for it…LOL Just wondering, how much is it going for in Queenway?

  2. Yoo Liz! *waves* thanks for dropping by hehe. Hrms those 2 Vandal series that I saw, were selling for about $269, though I would say its quite worth it, cos I heard from my friend that shop that is selling these shoes, actually imports LE editions of Nike shoes, meaning other than online it’s actually really hard to find similiar designs at other places over here. I didn’t take note of the shop name but I do recognise the shop, will try to let you know online next time once I go back to that shop to purchase my desired pair of shoes. ^ ^;

  3. $269 is quite steep, but they are nice. I probably know which shop you are referring to, it’s on the ground floor right, and near to the converse shop? I bought quite a few pairs of Nike from Queensway too…including my favourite Limited Edition Nike Air Force Lo. It’s quite a good place to hunt for those hard to find LE. I need to get new shoes too, perhaps dropping by later today, since it’s so near to where I work.
