Decommissioning Parade. Farewell S5000

Sold away my FujiFilm S5000Z Prosumer Digital Camera that has served me since my late Secondary/early polytechnic year ... 4-5years old le...

Still very robust and working fine, but it's 3.0 Effective megapixel and shutterlag is starting to irk me... as well as it's limitation... But nonetheless, it's distinguised service record is otherwise, very commendable! Thank you for this 4+ years! Thank you!

Looking to upgrade to a DSLR (finally!). Shutter lag and quality is of utmost important! As well as support and if the lens i buy for it can be fitted to a higher class of DSLR when I upgrade in the mid-far future.

Looking to expand my photography hobby considerably after getting my 1st DSLR, estimated around June'2008. My 1st step into the world of DSLR!

The 3 short-listed ones are!!

Nikon D60

Sony DSLR Alpha A350

Canon EOS 450D

Till my money rolls in!

L: Change The World

Watched the movie ytd! pretty gd! less on action, more on acting. This spin-off shows more of L's emotional side which could be pretty funny yet touching. The movie attempts to link it up as best as possible with Death Note 1 & 2, had some scenes that are from the 1st 2 movies but not shown at that point of time, namely what L did to the deathnote etc. All in all, worth to watch! Look out for that young actress, Maki! pretty young thing! my type :p

Bought a pink NDS and 2 games for pp's BD last thurs.. there goes my wallet!

Yeah!! no need book in today!

Yeah!! tonight no need to book in! tml den book in.. infact; the entire next wk we are staying out... the entire team of supply supervisor trainee; under the guidance of of our instructors... in my case SStaff Ho & Madam Agnes i think.. are gg down to a unit in an uber uber wulu area to do stock take for them.. sort like an audit.. and we have to submit a report on our finding next week...

anyway; last friday the entire cohort went down to Elias Park Primary to celebrate total defence day with them.. damn fun la!! though damn damn shag... was in-charge of the drill ammo and training claymore mine display... seriously; de pri 5 and 6 kids are quite a joy to be with.. the pri 4 are really a thorn in de XXX and not to mention super noisy.. guess their policy is "what i can touch, i must touch" ... the pri 3 kids were quite a joy to be with... listens to what i said and behave rather well... but i am pretty apprehensive on how much they can really absorb... anyway.. towards the end... really burn out liao... no mood to explain everything properly... originally introduced the claymore mine properly as the M18 Claymore anti-personnel mine... until bth.. juz tell the kids as ' it's a small bomb' keke.... seriously.. doubt they know the difference anyway...

however... i felt rather weird that we are going to a primary school to showcase all these weaponry to them.. i really wonder what culture are we inculcating to them ... not to mention; alot of them mentioned they wanna join the army to kill people... mmm... wtf

damn! i think tmc is going to stop offering monash I.T degrees by 2009 or smth... and they remove every information regarding monash I.T degrees... left only the foundation studies and psychology degrees... damn.. so much for planning early! actually alr heard rumour a couple of mths ago... regarding that they are going to cease providing monash i.t courses in singapore by 2009.. so i guess the removal of information regarding monash i.t degrees courses signify this.. not to mention; saw a few tmc ads on newspaper in the past wks since de O lvls result release.. nothing is mention regarding monash... only those liverpool moores and greenwich all those wulu wulu uni...

guess i'm back choose sim again...

CNY over lo!

And lets embrace the next one!! (ORD IN SIGHT!)

this new yr.. income, more of the same as the previous year... as usual, CNY is always a starving affair for me.. because i always hide in my room, watch movie, surf net, chat with pple etc.. but this yr, didn't really chat with pple... have been facing this issue since grad... nobody comes online anymore... Most of my friends are working, gurls and girls alike... me myself used to treat computer as a pure life source, not so for me now... msn is just an application there... Geez! the saying is true, the older you get, the less friend you have...

this seems to be the 1st time i blog during cny.. is it? can't recall

pretty pitiful during cny 1.. no food, no water in the room. (i don't like to venture out to meet relatives)

Had quick lunch of magiee mee + roast pork at the corridor overlooking CTE/PIE flyover...

They'll bombard you with the same comment and questions that you have heard for 2 decades.... lament how i resemble my dad more and more over the years, that i'm big sized (fat say fat la pls!), they will ask which school i'm in and worse! 1 woman actually thought I 19!! gosh gosh! seriously; i must escape nxt yr or smth... this is madness! even ask me camp @ GV watch 2-3 movies straight on the 1st day of CNY is fine by me!!!

Found a very nice song last week, sample it people.. is by this unknown singer... title is 花水月; literally "Flower Water Moon"



went shopping @ J8 yesterday! Alone! Got this!!! Been waiting for quite sometime!

The study phrase of my course is gg to be over lo... On-Job Training starts nxt week; don't know what to expect... hope i can cope with it man... Ops phrase will be another headache headache headache thingy... but i guess; if i can tahan 6mths of tekong... what's another 3mths of STC? haha...

ytd the STC CO did a stand by bed for us! and had a dialog session later in de afternoon...

1 thing that surprise me is that our 2I/C actually move in and stay in an adjacent bunk to us, either to keep an eye on us or just to show that if he; a regular can stay without between ask to, we should be able too... anyway, quite admirable. I know you are reading this Mr. Cheong ^_^
