U CAN NEVER SATISFY OTHERS!!!

my new ring, stole it from the convocation bouquet. haha..

The title makes me seems like i'm angry rite? but, don't be afraid. cause this is just a reminder for myself. never follows what others want you to do. just do ur best in everything you wanna do. achieving what you feel is the utmost out of you is more than enough. coz there's a lot of things you have to do out there and somehow there are also a lot of people around you that can do it instead of you. let other people feel the responsibility. if not, u might be the only one who learns new things. give others a chance to grow. haha.. is this an excuse?

anyway, as i'm writing this down, my burnt head is cooling by itself. writing is the best cure at this moment. ideas keep flowing. it's a great feeling.

till next time~

My Workspace

hehe.. nothin' to do.

For I am in AGONY..

As I’m leading towards my miserable life,

I keep saying to myself, do not delay, do not delay..

As the distractions fading away,

I said to myself to start anew, to start anew..

As time goes by and as all turns darker and darker, i pray for a tint of lights

As to never make me sway,

As to hold me all the way,

As to never wash me away..

After letting down all people around me,

Even after taking the oath as to never let myself be taken..

How I wish for the right to become true, for the wrong to become false

For myself is in agony..

For myself being too greedy..

For myself who is in need..

While the world spinning around,

So as my brain revolving about,

with no ends to challenge everything in front.

But with no actions seen days by days..

When will all things start to be in its place

Or go the opposite way

For i am in agony..

For i am too greedy..

when in 1000s, only 10 accepted

As pictures are priceless since it is where the memories remain, of course you want to look pretty all the time. Somehow, in 1000s shots taken, only 10 are acceptable ( for me i mean).

That's why, lots of photographers don't actually have many photos of themselves while taking photos of others beautifully. But i do know that actually it's because photographers don't even have the time to be in the picture. hehe..

Anyway, i just want to share with you a few things that i try to make sure when taking a photo of woman's face especially a muslimah like myself. This is not crucial. Just for fun and maybe for you all to experiment.

First of all, it is important not to take a passport like picture. See the picture below.

I know there's nothing wrong with the picture. But! you can be motto2 kawaii with a few tricks..

Instead of the passport way, tilt your head a bit to the right or left and the best side will be the one that clearly show your jaw line. This will make your chin comes more in shape.

as for myself, my right side is the best. see the picture below.

This picture makes me slimmer desu ne! hehe..

i will be seen chubbier if its taken from left.

and that's from me for now. see ya!

Deeeeep into the taste

double cookies chocolate

For me, i can be the best food critics in the world. i care about tiny little things bout foods. but im not choosy. i ate them all. its just that i realized what makes this food better than others and the other way around.

anyway, as im also into art, the food presentation really attracts me to capture it with my cammy. hehe..

and all the pic in this post was taken when i ate at waffle corner in alamanda, putrajaya. 3 of us bought stick size waffle. mine cost rm4.27 after 25% discount since they gave discount after 6pm.

i bought double cookies chocolate. my other 2 friends bought golden banana and chocolate marshmallow.

Golden banana

choc marshmallow

and for my selfish opinion, its a delicious delicacy but cannot really capture my heart..

Fulfilling my CRAVE~

Did you know that every 31st, Baskin Robbins gave 31% discounts on their handpacked ice cream! Handpacked one, came in 3 size; pint, quart and half-gallon.

So, last Wednesday, I joined with other friends of mine and bought the quart handpacked. It cost only RM33 plus tax, instead of RM46 after discount. You can choose a combination of 2 flavours at most.

And for the first time, I get to know these 3 flavours:


Gold Medal Ribbon - Vanilla and chocolate ice creams with caramel.

Raspberry Cheese Louise - A low fat cheesecake yogurt with raspberry cheesecake pieces and graham cracker bits swirled with raspberry.

Chocolate Mousse Royal - Milk Chocolate mousse ice cream combined with chocolate bits.

Aaahhhhhh~ so delicious I told ya..

And my favourite is Chocolate Mousse Royal! I’ll be wating for the May to come to fulfill my crave!

When Picture Talks..

When it comes to pictures, I’ve always amazed at how others make the picture talks. This is not by any mean to magic or mystical thingy but how they beautifully capture the story into just a picture. This is how I started to fall in love with photography and graciously, the path was so clear in front of me.

When I was in UM, I took basic photography course for my co-curricular activity. That's when I first met SLR and dream to own it. However, the dream was never comes true till now. Jealousy arose every time I saw my friends' photostream on flickr. At first, I foolishly thought that I won’t be able to produce such pictures unless I’ve a SLR.

“This is not cameragraphy! This is photography”, once, akhi Ikram said in one of his photography class that I attend. That’s when I confirmed, I also can do it even without a DSLR.

Ansel Adam, a genius photographer once said,

“No rules for good photograph. It’s just a good photograph”

However, there are still a few basics that need to be at least known if not practiced.

Listed below are a few tips that you can do to produce a good picture regardless of what camera you use. Even handset’s camera can be applied with them. Credit to akhi Ikram, the presentator on the course of basic photography that i attend with just RM3 as the fee! Believe it?! Hehe.. Lucky me..

1. STABILITY – make sure whenever you shoot, the camera doesn’t move along with your hand. Or, if you have a shaky hand, use monopod or tripod to hold the camera.

2. SUBJECT must be clear! You have to know what you want to be in the picture.

3. COMPOSITION – play along. Don’t stick to the centre. Might also try for the RULE OF THIRD (you can search for more info).

4. PICTURE SIZE – set on the largest. Easy to crop and able to make a few different composition of the same picture.

5. BACKGROUND – sometimes, to get a good picture is when you find the background first and wait for any subject to come into the frame.

6. ANGLE – it can be eye level, upper or lower (ant-eye view).

7. CROPPING – usually was done after taking the picture but I prefer doing it while taking the picture.

8. Last but not least, do lots and lots of practice! Cause practice makes perfect.

Anyway, this is just tooooo basic. Photography is a wide subject. However, don’t stick to the rules soo much. This is just as a guidance. Well, all the best to all photographers out there, not to forget me, myself! ;)
