CHEERS!

A TIMID Cat...

A few weeks back I was invited by my Kai-Che (god sis); Alice with her sister Catherine for a photoshoot session. Alice wanted to try out a new project of hers; a book reading themed photoshoot. I gladly tagged along as I wanted to test out and also improve my photography skills after my B2I class session at Nikonian Academy.

The photoshoot location is set at a park at Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur. The park is usually packed with people from all walks of life for recreational activities but not that particular day which in a way is good for us since we won't have lots of people eyeing on us ^^

We had an enjoyable time trying out ways to tweak our shots as well as testing out poses for our model; Catherine. By the way, I'm also one of the model in Alices project which you can check out at her blog!

Thanks Alice & Catherine for the invite as I had a wonderful time enjoying the photoshoot with the both of you!

We continued our photoshoot at another location later on the day which I will be posting SOON!

STAY TUNED!

Restarted my QUEST for knowledge again as it's been awhile since I've indulged myself in BOOKS! Probably a year ago? No wonder my BRAIN felt so empty lately...ahahhaa... Anyways I would like to thank my buddy WING for lending the book.

He actually just bought it from Kinokuniya @ KLCC yesterday! Since we had a dinner there and he emphasised that I reminded him of 1 of the DIFFICULT people in the book; I grab it from him and IT's MINE for NOW! ^^

This book is about how to deal with difficult people with a very CATCHY title. Since I deal with diferent types of people everyday, I believe this book will provide me a lot of guidance. So far managed to finish 2 chapters and am loving it!

Tomyam & Seafood...

It has been quite sometime since I had Tomyam and since Nor (thanx for the dinner) is obliging enough to take me out for dinner; we went to Vicchuda. I did a post on this restaurant before and it was around end of 2008; meaning it has been a year since I pop by that place!

Vicchuda is a well known restaurant for its Thai food is located at Uptown Damansara (facing LDP highway).

Since it's just the 2 of us; we ordered small size for all the dishes. Evertyhing was indeed small except for the fish! The fish is easily a KILO in size! We were like wondering how in the world for small sized dish, they can give us a KILO sized fish?

Since it's served; we might as well try to finish it up.

Steamed Barramundi


Chicken Feet anyone?

Omellete

Steam Vege

Chicken Tom Yam Soup

My personal opinion : The price is reasonable for a 2 persons meal with a fish which is within RM45 plus 2 drinks as well. It is a recommended place for a group/family dinner as it's worthwhile since the portion is big enough with reasonably priced though if you're a picky eater, this would not be a place for you to enjoy your meal.

Rating :

Ambience : ( 3 out of 5 )
Food : ( 3 out of 5 )

It was around 9pm when i met up with my muimui Gwenyse to discuss about her SAVINGS PLAN with ETIQA. She suggested to go to a cafe around Dataran Sunway. I obliged as it was near her place and she convinced me that it's a comfortable cafe with affordable food & drinks!

When we arrived, there wasn't many people patronising the place; only 7 tables were taken. Probably it was already late? Since I did not had my dinner and was starving like a hungry wolf; I quickly ordered my meal.

To my surprise their service is fast. Less than 3 minutes, our food and drinks arrived. The Iced Honey Lemon Juice that we ordered has the right balance of soury sweet taste. The Nasi Lemak Kapitan Chicken is served with average proportion of rice but the "sambal" which is the main ingredients of the nasi lemak was below average as it's not spicy nor soury. The fishball soup was a major letdown as it's near tasteless even though it's only RM2 for a bowl!

Overall, I would rate the cafe based on (*note: this is based on my personal opinon) : -

1) Ambience ( 4 out of 5 ) as it has nice lightings, great comfortable seats with appropriate table heights, spacious, cooling and it has wi-fi!

2) Food ( 3 out of 5 ) as the 2 dishes that I had is nothing special although the price was quite affordable. Overall cost is only RM15.75 with service charge for 2 drinks, 1 nasi lemak & a soup!

Recommended as a good place to hang out for a drink or to surf but it can also be a good place to grab a bite if you do not mind much on tastes of food since the location provides a good ambience.

My PASSPORT to SPACE...

Yeay! I got my NEW PASSPORT and it will bring me to SPACE!

*SHOCKED?* Well probably some of you would. Anyways space travel is still not OPENED UP for Civilians (for general knowledge sake) unless you have minimum USD 200, 000 (estimated); which you might be entitled for space travel via Virgin Galactic.

Back to MY PASSPORT ^^ . It is created by Western Digital and its their smallest portable hard drive ever! It's SLIM! It's SEXY! & MOST OF ALL It's SPACIOUS! YES! 500 GB of SPACE!

MY PASSPORT!

It's Western Digitital

320 GB VS 500 GB


size comparison with a ball pen

This is my 2nd PASSPORT ( My previous PASSPORT is a 320 GB with red and white finishing while the new PASSPORT came in sleek BLACK! ) . I purchased another as I needed the EXTRA SPACE and of course due to its portability as it's really light and also trendy.

RM325 for a light and spacious portable storage ( 500 GB in size ) ? It's definitely a BARGAIN!

Back to Basics....

3rd October 2009 was a life changing experience for me...why? Well for once, I never thought I would pay RM390 for a 1 day class and it's for photography! I mean come on, RM390 for a class to teach you on how to use your camera? All you need is just tweak some setting here and there while the rest is just position yourself to shoot right? I WAS WRONG...

After sitting there listening to our trainers a couple of minutes, already I found out that I was MISTAKEN all these while especially on the setting of the camera...I've been doing what a lot might be doing; get a Digital-SLR (DSLR) and use them as a you would with a compact digital cameras (CDC). Nothing wrong with CDCs but why get a DSLR (way much costly compared to CDC) if you would to use it as a CDC right?

At Nikonian Academy where I attended the Beginners to Intermediate Photography class, we were taught on :-

*Setting camera to shoot correctly

*Using F.A.C.T. to shoot beautiful photos

*Flash photography

*Model photo shoot session (indoor & outdoor)

Some of the photos from the class session....

Alex modeling for the 1st shoot

Beautiful Sharon with Charming Andrew

The class session is totally informative, humorous, fun, exciting & very much hands on! This is all credited to both our trainers for the day; Andrew Boey & Alex Ang for making it such a wonderful experience. Also thanking our model for the day; Sharon for her professionalism & dedication.

My class session was made more enjoyable as I was accompanied by my 2 friends; Wing & Alice and it certainly is more fun if you have friends tagging along to share your accomplishments. If not you could always make new friends which we did and his name is Derrick.

After the session, I find that it is worth every cents for the RM390 that I paid as I get much more value out of it! The class that I am targeting now would be the Flash Photography!
