On my birthday(4 months ago)my friends got me an action sampler as a gift being aware of my interest in photography. I must say the thrill of not knowing what you'll get is very exiciting and i was rather impressed by the results of the cross processed film and the kodak tri-x

okay novel you have the privillege of being here more than others....cos you sok iye banget

young one,may you find true love

2008-12-06T20:46:00.000-08:00

im not exactly fully ready yet with the photos(who will be with 348 photos to shortlist).
BUT i cant wait to show some of the work ive done and i must say,im very very happy. so the story goes

jacob and zul, two of my closer friends started an acoustic duo project.For their myspace, they needed photos and roped me in to help them.Photos were shot at a railway track,in between Holland and Ghim Moh. Without further blabbering, let the photos speak and dont forget to tag! makedamnsure there'l be a part 2

damn, now ive posted it cant help think i could have done better....
oh ya jacob and zul,great job at cafe diplo the zany song really hit the spot!

im not running

2008-11-22T21:02:00.000-08:00

incase youre wondering, this blog is getting rather very very outdated. I have a post in mind but all that when i get back my mac which is being updated with photoshop.Only then, my friends, Mr mosquito and Mr anaconda's photos i can edit. We did a photohshoot at the railway tracks and personally,i think im getting rather rusty in photography. Oh well, il get back on track.

ANYWAYS,
ive been quite busy lately.'With what?' fequently says jacob.Well, im busy with school and trainning and that takes up perhaps half of my time?maybe the rest is just all the social activities i make a point to participate in.

IN CONCLUSION,
il update this blog before you can say the word virginity.

what have we come to,il never understand
No matter what, il pray for your safety
il pray you'l smile.

lights will guide you home jenn

2008-08-03T17:53:00.000-07:00

when posting stuff on this blend junkie avenue,i always have this set of standards to what i deem fit to appear here because i only want to show the best of my work. Therefore jenn, you are nothing but the best. For those wondering whose jenn, shes a friend of mine ive known in sec 3 and 4 after fate decided to categorise the west side's worse express students into one room. Whats weird is that shes from my primary school and i vividly remember what she looks like. I didnt know her much then,barely an acquaintance.

This is not my declaration of love to jenn(we know whose job that is) why jenn has a special place in my heart thus making it into my blog is that shes flying off to US on the 4th. Personally,my relationship with jenn is more of a love hate one where the term bitch,moron and asshole are usually the choiced word accompanied with the most synical smile but as the date to her flight draws nearer,so does the relations between jenn and my group of friends. Ive always enjoyed her company and talking to her.Shes the 1st name in my mind to call for a chat when im on long solo journeys and scrolling down my namelist will never be the same

As you go jenn, dont turn back. It'l be easier...Think of it this way, its what you gain for the ones you left behind. Yes we will all cry like babies, only bacause that part of our heart that has you in it is trying to escape and follow you through our eyes.

We will miss you ;)

IF I SOUND TOO EMO FOR UNSUSPECTED PASSERBY WHO THINKS THIS IS CRAP,THAN STOP READING LA STUPID SINGAPOREAN...

meet my new friend..

2008-07-07T02:04:00.000-07:00

YOU KNOW I WONT LEAVE PHOTOGRAPHY
feels so good to be back...you know, as a teen and what i observe about myself is that relentlessly since young ive been looking for the calling.Bille Joe Armstrong found his calling of music when he was 11, Yodsaenklai Fairtex of muay thai found his calling when he was 7. So wheres mine? im sure its to come,no rush nabeel no rush..

On a lighter note,heavily inspired by the art of physical endurance and being able to give and take torment, i took up muay thai...yes your scrony friend perhaps is at the wrong place..BUT when i do something i like,i give it all..

on a not so sober note, happy birthday jennifer darling,we'l miss you like how i miss secondary school..hope you like the lamp of a naked boy with a penis as a switch..And shafiq,sorry we cant get you a sextoy or take you to geylang,i hope you like the lava lamp and you will stare at it every night like how i wish i can if i actually own one...gina,sifra,jenn,giselle,harith,ahmad cobra,irsyad,shafiq,algin,nigel,wei ern...thanks for the memories(fuck you this is not a fallout boy joke),we must do this again..

and i still want to do radio when i grow up

2008-04-23T02:55:00.000-07:00

After you take your o's close your eyes and count to ten.Before you know it,a whole new life begins with a different environment that comes with a whole group of new found friends and i am enjoying this life as much as i enjoy Simon Yeo's lesson during FMT.Okay maybe abit more.Incase some of you may not know,im studying in MDIS which stands for Management Development Institute of Singapore majoring in mass comm.MDIS is a interesting place actually,full of different kind of people.From actors to b boys to china people to even more interesting comm skill lecturer.Its like a very interactive zoo ofcourse im part of it.(oh god i so can feel the 'what animal do you play' joke)..anyways,to make this inferior thing look alive to all 16 of you reading,

i like the composition but if you ask me,needs more shutter..oh well,Nokia 5610 cant possibly provide a F 2.8 with Shutter speed 800

Muse come back singapore please!

2008-04-02T09:50:00.000-07:00

jan 2007 if im not mistaken,i witnessed one of the BEST live bands play at fort canning.Worth my 85 bucks every single cent of it.In my opinion,they single handedly beat Fallout Boy and singfest..anyways this photo was taken with a sonyericsson w700i and im loving it till this day.it serves as a reminder to me that a good photo is a good photo regardless if its taken with a bloody Nikon D3 or a damn VGA phone frm a nokia 7250..

when a spoil brat celebrate birthday

2008-02-10T06:07:00.000-08:00

in a recent saturday,a birthday party themed prince and princesses was held at mel's place in commamoration(is that how you spell it?)of the birth of this girl who turned 6.Why prince and princesses?i don't know but the birthday girl thinks she is one with or without the party..
jup i love u thnx for speedlight
johan i love u thnx fr the d40x

can you see the spoil brat in her smile?

this is my cousin in law

oh princess jasmine,i know aladin left you and how depressed you got but you dont have to eat to feel good.Theres other ways like exercising,sports and smoking

akon turned retarded after grinding 12year olds

say yor!sean kingston..

ehhh stop the fisheye can?

2008-01-01T00:23:00.000-08:00

playstoprewind,i think theyre the equivalent to mother theresa in the sense of what they do for the scene which is to give and not expect much in return.They will try their best to give exposure to local bands as much as possible and part of this is the inaugral full flight..two thumbs up for their effort and may eliss find her camera..i wasnt in the mood to shoot though i had my cam in my bag...but i had to shoot the leaven trait...AMAZING!

bernard,Autumn atlantic's drummer says hi

congrats to abg wan & kak syqin upon their marriage on 25th aug 07.They are shafiq's cousin whom open mindedly accepted our services knowing how amateur we are and the best ting is that they do not have high expectatiions of our work which helps cos tat means we were workin under less preasure.I enjoyed myself tremendously and i wont mind doing it again!credits to giselle for her d40x n jup for his speedlight :D

baybeats 2007

2007-08-08T06:30:00.000-07:00

baybeats has fast developed into one of the most anticipated annual events is singapore.It has inevertibly turned into a mecca for local musicians both professional or be it jus a fan.As i smiled through the moshpit,im glad to see all familliar faces but even happier to see new faces whom gave their support to the scene.Than,my smiled turned arnd as i saw scene kids who mosh to hurt and mosh cos they think its cool to deliberately punch faces of others and ecpect to be bodysurfed when they don help bodysurf.Anyways these are the photos i took as an audience frm the other side of the baricade and that jus fueled my enthusiasm to sign up nxt year!

2007-08-02T03:33:00.001-07:00

i had a blast at tapestry 2007!i met lionel and gt there early n watched stentorian(awesome!).Just after BDT jenn,lionel,irsyad,shafiq,hilmi,selfie and i watched simpsons!.After that,as i was standing around,at the corner of my eye lingers someone ive seen before and never failed to make me keep looking at her sereptitiously.I don mean to sound stalker-ish but i give credit where it's due and she is very pretty.I also saw this girl who took photos of blackductape and lives a block away frm my dad's place.Anyways it had been a long time since i met my dear friends from black ductape,20 dischanger and the leaven trait.My work here is not very good and im nt exactly a happy goober about it well,i did my best..

what everyone wants

2007-05-28T21:25:00.000-07:00

for the sun never to set at the peak of one's life.
to never stand alone.
a ray of hope.
love.(snapped by ESLI!)
blessings from above.
ambitions to look to.

love,hope and blessings are just some of what human beings in their natural facade would hope for.Life is never a bed of roses and it never will,but with such factors fragrancing one's life,it is believed to help the person smile more.
