Sinful Indulgence....

Good morning~ Afternoon, rather...

It's a good sign that the year will be a good one. On the 2nd day of the New Year, I played my part to stimulate the economy and spent 700bucks on a Camera. A Canon SX10 IS. Not an SLR, but it ain't no puny point-and-shoot. =P That's right, that'll be fulfilling my 5th resolution. Took the cammie out for a test ride ( no wheels ), under the tutelage of someone. =P

Here are a few shots, just for fun's sake.
PS: The images have not been touched up yet, so these are purely the images produced from the camera and fiddling with the settings. =D Don't laugh... Imma still a sapling in this field.

Plantz Plantz~

Guess where. =P

Oh I just realized that I forgot to set the date and time for the camera... So right now this pic was supposedly taken in 22 Jan 08 23:56. What a bright sky for midnight hours. =D

Zoom capability test. At 20x optical zoom. =D

Sun's Setting Soon.

I hope the sparrow ain't shitting.

Fast Shutter test. =D

Imma gonna be out doing a tiny bit more practice shooting later. I'll update later. =D Gotta run~!

1st Post (of the New Year)

Woohoo~ It's the New Year, and the New Year always calls for new stuff. Things have got to change.

2009 is the year of change.

For a start, on the first day of the New Year, I learnt how to rollerblade. =) It's a start, though I'd still require alot of polishing. It just spurs me on to do so much more. There's a list of to-dos and to-accomplish (es) planned for 2009, and here it is. =)

1. Learn a new sport (Either ice-skating or blading)
2. Learn to use a musical instrument (Planning already underway)
3. Complete my driving lessons and obtain my license
4. Finish piecing my 2 sets of jigsaws and wall-mount them in my new room (Need motivation to start, lol)
5. Actively partake in photography and record my precious moments (Equipment sourcing)
6. Regularly update my blog ( This one will be a little tough )

And so on and so forth. =P FYI the list is non-exhaustive, but since I've put it up, I will adhere to it to the max of my capabilities. =) There are 4 more which are supposedly secret. =P Only the deserving may ask, haha~

Anyway, haven't been sailing since I came back from the overseas sailing. A much needed rest indeed~ Most importantly, the room is COMPLETE! Never will I have to tolerate the lack of privacy, never will I constantly have to be on the receiving end of naggings because of my personal belongings strewn here and there. I bet there'll be people curious about how it turned out. I'll post pictures after my cam comes, and after I fully furnish the room to the way I like it.

I'm still lacking:

1. Curtains
2. Matching Bedsheets
3. Pillows
4. The out-of-stock latex overlay from IKEA
5. Pioneer Home Theatre System

Soon... Soon. Real Soon now...
*snicker*
