Balancing between Work-Study-Life

The frequency of my blog post has been lesser and lesser... There are a lot of thing which I wish to post... A lot of thing and a lot of feelings which I wish to share with all the readers which read without any complaints...

Study life is really no honey moon life... especially when you are working... Lots of assignments, exams, discussions, presentations, reports... it's kinda burdening. Stress is something I need to learn to manage...

Sleeping late at 3am and wake up early to go to work is a common thing for me now... Work from morning till 6pm then rush to uni like driving GT... speeding and worry about summons that I may encounter... Best time is enjoying the breeze air after my class, driving back along the Mines-Sg Besi highway, I normally opened my car window, turn off the air cond and let the natural wind blow away all my stress, removing my headaches... so that I can go home and continue my work...

I did my work normally until 2-3am... and this is what I expected from the first day I work as a software engineer... And now with more projects on hand... Pending tasks are stacking up... Lucky still... have Eric to help on some tasks... and I do appreciate his help... Teamwork and supporting environment keeps me going... pass through everyday without any big obstacles...

I still remember that once before... we always stay back at office until 12am... that was the toughest days we had in our working life in this company... Now what we facing is not as hard if compare to what we gone through. And that worst experience is what shape our supportive environment...

I believe all my colleagues know that everything is good in this company except "something" that we cannot control... and those good thing is the reason we stay in this company... and enjoy our trips as a team...

Work life is not a big matter for me with the support of my colleagues... Study is something what I have to control myself... and life is something I need to learn to enjoy! (",)

KLPF 20090816 @ Midvalley

Yeah... second round of my visit to KLPF... I reached at around 11am and the exhibition hall is already very crowded because of the EOS Miss Chinese Cosmos Pageant SEA 2009 Photography Contest. Pageant had cat walk on the stage for photogs to shoot. Although the contest is only open for Canon users, but other brand supporters will never miss the chance to shoot leng luis... So the area around the stage was as crowded as the day before. I did took some photos of the pageants, but I'll post it in another post later. Now I'll continue with the booth girls.

As expected, after news about there are girls to shoot at booth, there will be more photogs a.k.a. "buaya" will appear at the hall today... Haha...
It was not as easy to shoot as yesterday as the ratio of photographers to model had increased. And there are more hands and arms and heads that block the camera.

But still ok la... can shoot some also lo... so share with you all what I've got:

Tamron as starter


Playing with hair


Wishing upon the sky


Sweeeeeeeeet smile


This is from "Digi Cabi" booth... Too crowded to see booth name yesterday


The other girl from Digi Cabi

This booth was VERY crowded yesterday... Guess what... it was SUPER crowded today... Maybe as I said earlier... Today more buaya... so walk pass that booth also hard.
And something special today... There are more models...
When I was about to leave... pass through the Nikonian Academy booth... and saw 2 leng lui posing there... No wait lo... Shoot shoot shoot...

A pretty girl from Nikonian Academy booth


Dark eyeglass mode ON


Another girl from Nikonian Academy booth


"Kiss u..."

I was wondering why they asked the girls to wear such thick and hot jackets... Poor them... I guess they sweat a lot...
And lastly, a girl promoting for DigiColor...

Hope you all enjoyed the report... (",)

KLPF 20090815 @ Midvalley

Went to Midvalley today for Kuala Lumpur Photography Festival. I was intended to go there to shoot some models in the Model Shoot session. Already prepared for the crowd before I reach there... But it was a lot more than what I expected.



But at least... I've got a shot...


Anyway, this is not what I want to shoot... Without wasting time shooting object from very far, I walked around... and got some of the below:


This girl a bit cocky before I approach her... But when I asked to take her photo, she's quite ok... and looks quite elegant... I like the feel...
So morale of the story: Don't judge a model by her look... you'll get different result from every aspects...


As I walked towards the end of the hall, I saw a bunch of photographers keep flashing at 1 booth... So I also go there and see what's so interesting...
And I guess that was the most famous booth of all...
With two girls (I guess is Thai girl) wearing a tied up shirt exposing part of their bra, most of the guys leave nose bleed... Hahaha

"I miss him..."


She looks so sad...


The other girl at the same booth


The tatoo is so sharp... (Although temporary but nice)

Inside the hall, there are a lot of Photo Societies pulling members, but I didn't join any of them... I believe online forums like Photokaki and Alphanatics had more than enough information that I needed to improve. Cheers to all the members!
ShaShinKi has a booth there also selling some accessories and promoting their website. I knew about their website when Tuck Hoh told me when I just started to venture into photography...
I didn't really survey for the prices of accessories... because I scare later hand will feel itchy... Haha
Already spent for my lens before I went to Ipoh for model shooting... So absolutely not going to spend more this time...
As I passed by the Tamron booth, I took a few shots of the model there...

This girl pose a lot with the pole


Tamron Tamron

There were a booth selling big Epson poster printing machines... The photo printed in such a big size is really nice...
Maybe one day I will print one of my work in that size... Hehe
That's all I can share for KLPF... There are still 1 day on tomorrow 2009-08-16 if you still haven't visit...

The pc fair is a bit different this time. They start promoting more Online Games. In the first hall I entered, there were a bunch of cosplayers. All promoting Online Games and attracting the guys to sign up. Haha... not many can resists their attractions and I guessed a lot of Online game accounts were signed up within this few days.

As for laptops, girls promoting were like fairs before. Not much different on their uniforms. As for the girls, a bit different la... You judge it yourself.

Goy's Birthday Celebration @ Neway KL

Been away for kinda long... Lots of things that I wish to blog it out, but due to insufficient time, everything left in a small corner inside my head. And now is the time to unleash them... Hehe...

It was Goy's Birthday on last Saturday, he purposely come to KL to meet us all... But unfortunately, most of the things went unplanned due to lots of unexpected events through the weekend. So sorry for him.

But at least we went to Neway as planned. Hehe. It was quite fun over there, because Goy met Han Ting and Chin Siang, who always don't sing at karaoke, sang a few songs too...


The Food at Neway



Han Ting, Chin Siang, Goy The Birthday Guy



Vivone & Gladys


I left early for another event that day... And they went to Wong Kok to drink the huge milk tea. In the end... Goy's stomach not feeling well... Too much milk tea I guess... Haha

The next day... we went to had our breakfast, but I don't feel good that morning, felt a bit headache and wish to vomit. So scared that I kena H1N1 that time, went home to rest a while before send Goy to Puduraya to catch his bus home. And we missed the chance to walk at the Petaling Street like Vivone.

So that was it... they went back to Penang... Haiz... Don't know when they will come again... Looking forward for the next time they come... And wish that time can have better plannings...
