sad sad news
for the polaroid lovers around the world......those who loved the fact that you can see what you shot on your camera moments after before digital invaded the film world... its official, polaroid has ceased production.
"Polaroid has already quietly halted production of instant cameras. "We stopped making commercial-type cameras about 18 to 24 months ago, and we stopped making consumer cameras about a year ago," said Beaudoin."
for more of the article visit 'Polaroid shut down'.
its time for me to stock up, scout for the little stores thats still selling and stock up. i would want polaroids for special moments, it has this character that no other cameras can achieve even the existing fuji-instax range. the classic feel is just super sexy. its an icon of growing up. polaroids has been with us while we grow up, taking those passport photos, or fun2 fotos. i still have a foto of me & mom at science center with t-rex at the dinosaur exhibition. i still have the foto where my fren snapped of me and my vespa, both has yellowed thru age but still it is sexy to look at, no other cams can give that feeling. its just sad that they stopped production, why must they surrender to defeat? there's still polaroid lovers around the world. looks like when the films totally run out, i'll switch to fuji, the camera yamusama yone is using. that will replace the polaroid in a way but not totally.
for those who knows which shops still selling polaroid films, kindly tell me cos i wanna stock up.

was suppose to go to triple-d, uncle mike invited all lomotioners there for the lion dance event. he invited the lion dance crew and us there to what else but shoot fotos. i woke up early at 10am but slept again and end up waking up at 1pm, a little to late to go so i decided not to. id be a good boy, chill at home, do as much revision as i can and probably check out if miao lan is open and send in my roll of sensia400. then to mom's place, chill there and back again to revisions. i have to discipline myself, divide time....like yest, i resisted rashid's offer to shoot sunset with his gf at labrador bcos i already am going skating at night and i promised myself i will start on bio and i did...though im still less than half way thru but i think im ok. i dunno if i can get A for bio bcos this time round, its microbiology, studying bacterias, viruses and all the naked eye couldn't see.....tough one.
okla, wanna shower, then makan before doing what im supposed to do...
mini downhill mishap
its been 2months or more since we last skated and being at the age we were.....muscle rigidity sets in......im getting lousier by the days....so little skating nowadays waddya expect....i hope theres more skating cos id wanna be ripping the concrete jungle again...
bruises, lacerations and abrasions all part of skating....no pain, no gain....
interest vs rice bowl
my cuz whos like 3months younger than me asked yesterday, 'so, what do you think should i pursue my interest or see market and carry on with the line im already in?". I said to him, "At our age its important to look for stability FIRST, look for something that will secure you..."
well, that was what happened to me but im glad im into nursing cos its part interest part 'iron rice bowl'. i will still pursue my interests, my close ones knows what it is........but for now, being alone and independent i have to aim and make sure that 'iron rice bowl' is in my hands first.
familia
small family reunion, met cousins, aunties and uncles......nice.....
foods galore....
and tina, made my day...hehehe she asked "how come u still look like
ure not ur age?"....hehehe
tina is going to take a diploma after serving 3 years at sgh......best of luck...didnt get into details but more or less thats what she told me.
funny, recently im closer to my cousins.....from the online cousins macam elya, to haiqal...and now tina....maybe cos tina is a nurse....anyways, im alone in my own world but somehow family is getting closer, even on my father's side, cik timah, uncle ahmad and cik jah.....i guess god is bringing me closer to them for a reason....
anyways, im kinda glad being single actually.....i dunno im spoilt for choices...hahah for all i know i might end up like my uncle, still single till now...LoL......
anyways, im looking forward to my career and lots more things to come......and now, i just gotta hit the books...sorry guys....
and before i go, this has gotta be my favourite toy now, next to the LCA. i just hope the shots today turn out wonderful...
power lense, power stupidity...
my shutter were at bulb mode...for half the roll.......i hope everything turns out fine cos the lighting was fine and i snapped shot.....at most underexposed......i love the tele lens, except i find it hard to focus......need to get used to the focusing and zooming...
happy cny to all and enjoy the clip....these guys brought light painting to a whole new level.

struggling hobbyist
my latest hobby requires pumping in money everytime i need to process a roll....hey not cheap leh, so i scouted for 'miao lann' the fotoshop in bt batok....finally i found it and its cheaper to xpro there by $2.50, thats alot in the long run......10 rolls id save 25bucks....but id have to see the quality and if i like it or not.....if i do, i guess ill be seeing less of uncle mike......and wats more, miao lann does help their customers to send in bnw rolls to fotohub at beach road.....woots...
looks like you can expect bnw shots from me pretty soon....
bird wants me to shoot him for his solo myspace site......should see him play guitar...thatll be interesting...he'll pay for the processing.....heheh why not.....
