University Students turned Cosplayers @ DaiCon MMU...

It was DaiCon, a Celebration of Japanese Modern Visual Culture event in Malaysia. I reached there on Saturday around 12 something where the Cosplay Competition event is going on. I didn't stay much near the stage, instead, walked around looking at what they have there. It was really a great event for anime lovers. There were a lot of collectibles selling at counters from posters to cards to figurines and many more. You can see cosplayers all around the hall. Some of the guests that day also added something on top of their normal attire such as bunny/cat ears, tails, caps, etc.

I can see in the eyes of anime lovers, their desire and joy of owning their "angel" or "guardian". It was really a great experience although me myself is not an anime lover. I wouldn't understand why they can spend so much money to own a figurine. Just like they won't understand why photographers can spend over thousands for a DSLR. Haha... I guess sure the gals will say... "Why not I be your guardian or angel, and you spend those money on me". Haha...

Actually it all downs to one thing... Interest. Interest is what creates desire to own. And different people have different interests. But the theory is just the same... You have interest that's why you wish to own it. OK... talk too much already... back to topic... Cosplayers that day are great... I believe even their own friends never expect that they are so different as a cosplayer.

Here are some of the photos I've taken.

I felt wiser already...

Yesterday... I went for a so called orientation for MBA at UPM. It was held in Philip Kotler hall. I didn't know this hall even though I've been in UPM for 3 years. So the Dean start explaining about the faculty and continued by the deputies for some course descriptions. I get to know a guy name Kee Wei, he asked me to call him Kiwi (I won't do that...). After the session ends, go back to faculty of computer science for internet. And then found out that today no class. Haiz... waste time wait there.

Today... was my 1st lecture. I went in late because of traffic jam caused by heavy rain. I sat beside Deepa and Mee Hui (not too sure whether the spelling is correct or not) and the lecturer explained about what Organizational Behavior (the subject I taking) is all about.

So what is Organizational Behavior about? It was formed by Organization and Behavior. Course mates suggested Team, Emotion, Attitude, Values, Cultures, People, Promotions, etc. Then the lecturer relates all the attributes mentioned. He said values, everyone has the values that they practice, example cleanliness, tidiness, how you feel when you normally stay in a very clean country and come across a very dirty country.

And Emotions, every one has emotions, Anger, Love, Sad, Joy, if you don't have emotions, you are Zombie! And attitude, it is emotions, practiced in long term, so it's a long term emotions...

And Cultures, it is something that practice by a group of people. Just like Bindi on Indian women forehead, which the red means married, black means single. It was practiced by large group of Indians. And it's Indian's culture. And the lecturer said "It was my culture, not all, that 1st class shall be a half class... and the class will end early today".

Yeah... that's the end of my class...

Miss Model of the World 2009 - Malaysia Final

On 7th July, I went to Ipoh for the event Miss Model of the World Malaysia Final photography contest. Have to wake up early in the morning at 4am because the event start at 9am. Drive all the way from KL to Ipoh. Feeling sleepy + it was raining in the morning when on the way to Ipoh... Almost fell asleep a few times. But because of responsibility, I must focus on driving. Haha... and done it... (Proud of myself... hehe)

Reached Ipoh at 8.30am and had breakfast at McDonald. After that we went to the Lost World, Sunway for the event. When we reached there, we were told that all passes are finished... OMG... then they gave us the Official passes (for reporters). Haha... different from others... we get the blue passes instead of yellow.

OK... cut the craps... proceed with photos... I know u guys like that... Hehe...

Night in KL after a Hazy Day

Heavy haze recently as all of us know... And I thought it would be hard for me to get a chance to shoot a nice night view of KL... until yesterday, when I'm getting home... I saw a clear view of KLCC from my office...

So when reached home, I spent some time playing with my camera, and managed to get a few shots...

One of the photo I get is as below, I cropped it become panorama.
