My recent drama obsession!

I'm still in my holiday mood and not making a lot of effort searching for a job. I guess it's because of me being very selective of jobs. So I end up watching Korean drama and Japanese drama day and night until I forget the time and date.
Anyway, I watched 'Playful Kiss' and 'Love shuffle' these 2 weeks.

I really like the soundtrack from 'Love Shuffle' which are 'Eternal flame' and 'Fantasy'.

I'm so undecided on what I want to do.

I'm back from China!

The thought of traveling to many places makes me happy! I've traveled to Brunei, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and my latest location is China! I'm so excited to go to China as I've heard a lot about China but never been there.

My flight was from KK to Shenzhen directly which is about 3hours. While waiting in the plane, I secretly took photos! =P

Anyway, on the flight we actually pass by Hong Kong, no not transit =( How I wish!


We arrived at Shenzhen and straight away we start our long journey bus ride to lunch!
Silk cocoons - Still got 2 silk worms inside!

Our menu everyday is more or less the same. We had Chicken (roasted/steamed), Duck(roasted), pork(3 layer/smoked), fish(many bones! lake/pond water type), veggies(pepperbell- they love it so much that it's in our menu everyday), soup(tasteless- salt must be expensive there =P), and etc. The food is always overloaded on the table. We got a spin table and the food is too many to be on the spin table.

One of the HK drama sets.
We visited a lot of places, cruise so many times that I got tired of looking at the scenery, caves - colourful lights, cultural village, Hong Kong drama sets too!
The place where they make 果蒸
Ahh!!Fish eating my hand!

We even watched a spectacular performance known as 梦幻漓江. It combines ballet and acrobatics. Stunning and lively! Too bad no photos allowed inside.
Some of the cast in the show

Lychee is in season here! Ate so many until I had sore throat.
Raining a lot!

All together we've traveled 2000KMs for the whole 8days trip! The one i enjoyed the most besides seeing beautiful scenery is the shopping at 虎门 and also in Shenzhen city! Bargaining is an art and is fun to do in China!
Replica bridge
Shenzhen city
Funny caption! 人人搬屋!

Due to my laziness in uploading many photos in my post, I leave links to my photo albums here and here, here and here!

My Most Memorable Experience Buying Online

Before I proceed to write my contest entry, read the poster above!
The first and largest E-commerce Fair in Malaysia, Lelong.my E-commerce Fair is coming soon! 

Date: 12th, 13th, 14th August 2011 (Friday to Sunday)
Time: 11.00 am to 9.00 pm 
Location: Mid Valley Exhibition Centre (Hall 1 & 2)
 

My Most Memorable Experience Buying Online is through www.lomography.com. I recently bought a camera which I really like which is the Lomography Diana Mini! I dream of owning this camera for the longest time (6months!). This is how my baby looks like!(There on the right)

This purchase is memorable because I earn the piggies real hard in the lomography website in order to buy this camera. Piggies is like points where 1 piggy = 1 $USD. I did many stuff for the piggies rumble in the website and earned a total of 30piggies! 

The camera cost USD$69 and at that time they also giveaway an Actionsampler to purchases above USD$100! So I bought 3 pack of films and got 15% discounts on the films bought. 
I ordered them right away and got them safely after 5days! During those 5days I'm checking their route everyday while waiting anxiously! They use DHL Express to courier to my home and I get to track them everyday to see where they traveled before reaching my loving hands! 
After I got my camera I start to shoot and shoot and got these photos! The reason why I love Diana Mini is the effect she can make. My memories are captured in a special way. Another factor involved is the film used too! First few shots are from slide films =D

Meet my dog!

Lomo hunter outing Part 1

Yesterday I went to an outing by Lomo Hunters (Kuching lomographers group) and we took a lot of street shots plus candid shots!

At 1pm we gather at McDonalds Tun Jugah and I actually lined up from 12 something until 1 something to get my food from McD. I think the main reason is the coca-cola glass Green version was out on the first day.

Anyway, slowly, many more lomographers and photographers arrive at the top floor.
