black and white photos

are harder to shoot than colour photos. i dunno. i tried taking so many .. well not that many.. it was a beautiful day and i forced myself to get out of the house instead of being cooped up in the room like a recluse.
i took the train to kew. stopped there for an hour or 2. it was quite cold. but i wore the same amount of clothing that i wore when i came here in autumn.
my interest in b/w became imminent on the day i saw the photo of hirosue ryoko, sitting on a bench after a photoshoot and she was in her winter coat, cupping her hands over a warm cup of coffee or something.. it was black and white la.. but yes.. that was the time i wanted to find a model who could strike that kind of natural flair.
well, it helped that she had a cute face la.. lol
anywyas, here are some of my b/w photos.

i didnt have a model so i had to make do with what nature had to offer.
right other than that.. i ate too much during the weekend. not good. back to 80. it's a bloody big yoyo.
i don't care anymore. lol
tried and made my own chili oil. too much chili. cooked daging masak merah with tomato puree. ( definitely WRONG)
bah.. had to finish it anyways.
level 51++ on wow.
watched Full metal panic fumoffu again. I SOOOO WANNNA GOOOO HOMEEEEEE. it's soooo boring here... :P i don't go clubbing. i don't like drinking beer in the pub.
i like speeding. cars are very expensive. and cars can only go so fast. else it'd be bye bye world. lol
i like reading but with the time i have now.. no time to read.

bah humbugs.. so what to do .. stay cooped up in the room or the kitchen trying to cook new things..
this is the little bit past quarter mid life crisis thingy .. i think in a few weeks time i should be alright. cos right now it's the feeling of what the heck i am doing with my life. lol

You have time to update your blog, head to places and snap nice b&w pics, so why do you still not have time hmm? :)

Btw, I think b&w would look nicer with a model in it. There's the classic touch.

just yesterday, i watched an episode of South Park (Season 10) and they made fun of people who played WoW ... it was hilarious!

naturally, you came to mind. muahahaha~

yeh, a model would have been good for the pics. =)
twisty: long story. no time. :P too much of the hustle and bustle of the city.

piffy: yeah so i heard. i was told it was funny as well. but i don't like to watch southpark unless i HAVE to. :P

piffy & twisty: b/w yes it's nice. but models are not easy to come by.
just need to find a willing model. cos it's not just a 15 mins thing if wanna get the model to do poses or stay still while i shoot. lol.
:p

living on a budget

£4 per weekday and £10 for groceries for the week. that's it's gonna be till sept. hopefully.. until i start to try shopping again .. -_- so far for the last few days has been okays. spent like £8 for groceries for this week. some beef, some chicken wings( which i completely finished during the weekend) which included half a kg of fruit and nut cadbury. today was 2 for £2 sausage rolls from tescos. nothing else happened. my friend's father died of lung cancer. i wish them condolences. it was so sudden apparently. but i have had no contact with them since i left KL/miri. i heard it from another friend who was in miri who msged me asking me about my blood pressure as he said he was scared now. i asked. scared of dying ? lol. anyways, it's best to be preventing than trying to cure it when it comes.. so i really have to switch back to no salt diet.. T_T kk that's it. season 6 of 24 was like erm... okays... it was basically a repeat of the plots.. hope that's the la...

i hate my kindle

- reason being i can't put it down when i start a book. and it doesn't make it any better that i can put so many books in there.. OMG.. i can just continue reading.. so far i've used the kindle for like 2 weeks ? or maybe a week.. since i hate it.. i'll say only the bad things i can find about it.. 1. erm.. when eating do not read. - makes it hard to wipe the oil stains off. nothing a cloth wouldn't wipe away. or maybe the hem of your shirt. 2. to jump flip the pages is a little hard. it's made for sequential reading. 3. dictionary is a little hard to use.. it doesn't let you highlight the word and checks it in the dictionary. 4. collections.. i have a few books which i loaded on it. but to actually navigate through them takes some time as i can't seem to organise my books via any book management tool. meaning they can't group the books by folder. kindle just shows everything in one big list. 5. it looks so cool that most of the time when i am readin...
