Photographer's Shots
Well,I'm back here again with my blogging =).Nothing much to write down for today as i'm at home for the whole day.Haizz... when can seemy friends again.Nothing much at home to be done (except the holiday assignments).
Anyway, when i was looking at the comments on my blog,I realised that some of you guys are kind of either bored or aggresive (can't find the right word to use) as i didn't put any pictures that I have took wherever i go in the blog.Well, appease you guys today in this post as i'll be side tracking for a while in my post on 'Past Days'.Giving you my a little of my 'secret' photos that i've have taken last year.Giving you guys to have a preview of my works as a photographer.Below are the photos mostly based on this year than last yx;lkear's one.Need some comments.BUT NO VULGRARITIES in my blog!
2005-Photographer's journey(Nothing much actually =) )
This picture is acutally taken for my Art project which lasted for almost the other half of the year 2005.The Art project was given by Ms Tan WK as a mission to design a postcard with a picture of a tree which emphasizes on WWSS quality-Reslience.Well took this one (when I was in Sec 2) at along Little India one day and treating that it will be the ideal photo for the postcard as it shows very well on the quality reslience where the branches are reaching out. She gave me high marks for this as she likes the photo and my interpritation very much.Though not doing the final product due to shortage of time,at least passed very well in my EYE Art 2005.I think she gave very high marks for this as she thinks it stands out of the crowd.Well,see how=)
The Photographer's journey continues with me and my family going to Bangkok just one day after my birthday (5 Dec),sounds like a treat for me at first though.Honestly, this was one of the memoriable ones in my life.When i first landed at Bangkok, we decided to take up a one day tour around Bangkok for the next day in Bangkok.Suddenly, the man who is taking us to our hotel was questioning me personally on my birthday (after giving him some question which he was impressed by my English standard) =).I answered him '5 December'.His answer was that yesterday before we came to Thailand,it is actually the birthday of the King of Thailand (where the Thais will always honor and love him extremely much) His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Diffculty pronoucing it.Simple terms King Rama the 9th). Immediately, I got kind of a suprised and taken aback, in my mind was like 'Unbelievable'.Must be a lucky guy from Singapore to be born on the same date of a Royal Dignatary.Haha... =)
Well, took photos during the 4 days trip.Pretty impressed with the Thai architecture.
Wat Arun (The Temple of Dawn)

Alright,No more intresting photos to show you guys for last year being a photographer,keep looking for my upcoming post focusing this year's Photographer's Journey =)

Past days..-1
These past days are sometimes something for me to rememember.Others,well quite boring for me though.Anyway,here's a pretty quick 'summary' of what I have been doing for the past days since the ending of WWSS 2006.
Day 1-Parents-Teachers Meeting
Woke up pretty early and went to WWSS with my dad around 8 am.We reached there around 9 am where we have to wait for a while as the rest of 3E 2006 (a few of them with their parents) are there early. Probably,they wanted to be the first comers, waiting to be 'served' as quick as possible and going back home as quick as possible and either catch up with their sleep or hanging out with their friends! Oh well,have to wait a while before our turn.At least we're not so late.
Coming to our turn, I know how's my results like (no need to mention much of it) .Able to go to 4NA next year with the minimum. However,according to Ms Lee that in order to go to Sec 5, í'll need to pass the minimum criteria, but with Grade 5.A challenge for me.Have to get ready for next year. Started planning what to do for the holidays.Went back home and started wearing my new specs for the first time.Weiyang was the first SC and Westwoodian to see me wearing new specs. Saw his facial expression giving me a 'WOW' look and in his mind was like looking very cool with this specs.Olive green (my specs color) is also his favourite color as he's a NCC guy and always army-minded.Hope he will appreciate it.
Well, nothing much to be written for the day.Will focus on other matters during the holidays.Look out for the next post.
P.S Will need some people to link/tag me in their blogs.Pleaszzzz link/tag me !

Photographer's Holiday-3
This is a short post dated 25 October 2006,
Woke as normal, had breakfast once again with my Dad at the hotel lobby, had a good meal for the morning. Took a shot with my camera outside the window .Quite a nice view outside. Finished my wondeful breakfast soon feeling filled up for the day.
Decided to sleep a little more before checking out from our hotel, slept for a while before showing up and then leaving the hotel room. Before leaving the hotel room, took a shot outside from the hotel room, quite ok.
Check out and then decided to make one more short trip to Mid Valley for lunch before taking coach train to JB which is also the entrance to Singapore (by bus).Had a sumptous lunch before leaving for JB.Take another train to the coach train station.Departed KL at 2.15 pm.Bid goodbye then.
Was very bored during the journey, just watch what they have on screen and watching a movie before snoozing. It was one of my favourits movies which i forgot the name as I've didn't see it for a long long time. Snooze off zzzzz....
I was a little fed up as i woke up by the volume of th TV which was lounder than this. Oh well, nothing much to see on TV,just seeing the scenery for the rest of the journey. Before continuing, I forgot that it was the last day of WWSS 2006, felt a little sad as I won't be able to see then during the OCU (Operation Clean Up) and also wishing all the best to my Sec 2s as they will be going up to Upper Sec next year. Heard that also some of my favourite teacher will be leaving Westwood like Mr Poh, Mr Koh,Ms Chia & Ms Tan (forgot one of the teachers names already).Wishing them all the best in whatever they do and also to remember Westwood and the family in thier future.
Coming back to my story, reached JB in the night around 8pm. Have to quickly pass through all the immigration procedures as fast as possible as I need to collect my new specs by today before the spectacle shops closes.Finally reached Yew Tee station and collected my specs.Wearing the specs helps my eyesight a lot and the images I see becomes more clearer. Went back home feeling nervous for tommorow's Parent-Teacher meeting and feeling excited in wearing my new specs to school tommorow =)
Photoshot from the hotel lobby during breakfast.Pretty nice,quite ok =)
Photoshot from the hotel room.Nothing much but just a opposite hotel, a building and the road lanes

Photographer's Holiday-2
Well,I'm back with my holiday story.Below is the post dated 24 October 2006.
Woke up by my dad's handphone in our Family hotel room for our journey to KL for 3D 2N. Force myself up from the relaxing and soothing bed in our hotel room. Oh well... Got up from bed. Recevied our complimentary morning newspaper hanging at our hotel room door. Put in at the table where our mum's still sleeping as she was tired.
Took the hotel lift and went down to the central lobby and went to have our breakfast at one of their restruants which was mentioned to be world-acclaimed(Don't know whether they still living up to their standards). Went in, walk around, saw the huge spread of food which i see the colors of it pretty attractive. Got some potatoes,this etc..Went 'makaning' at the food we've got from the buffet.Very hungry for the both of us. To make the story short, end the meal with some fruit. Overall, a wonderful breakfast for the day.
Went back to the hotel room, nothing to do much there as the shoppping centres are not open yet in the morninng.Went reading their newspaper and went to sleep for a while.
Woke up later around 11 am, went for a shower feeling refreshed after that and began my day, went for lunch at a nearby resturant. Finish makaning, went to the train station which will takes us there to Mid-Valley megamall (One of KL's Megamalls, being rank second, first will be KLCC according to the Malaysian Tourism Board). We didn't realised that there's a faster way in going to Mid-Valley by taking a direct train at the train station just hiding behind our hotel. Change our mind in taking the train station infront of the hotel and took the train station at the back. I think we're very lucky to stay in a hotel with two train stations nearby. Bought tickets to our destionation-Mid Valley and here we go. WOOOHS...
Reach there within 15-20 mins pretty fast and alighted there. The last time i went there was last year. Went around the mall, bought some groceries at the supermarket. Decided to watch a movie since there's nothing to but much here due to some of my/our favourite shops were either close or not having sales there.Well, decided to watch World Trade Center (a true story based on the September 11,2001 incident which also focus on two survivors' life in the 9/11 incident) instead of Rob-B-Hood as the tickets there were completely sold out. Never mind. Went to watch World Trade Center even though we miss the first few parts of it.
When watching the movie, the reactment of the world-known incident happening in the US was very well potrayed and and the protayal of true life surivors-Sgt. John MacLoughlin & Officer.Will.J Jimeno and presently retired from active service from the US Police Force. Well told story of courage and survial. The director even end off the movie with the list of victims being affected in the 9/11 incident happened at NY's World Trade Center-Both dead/alive. He really has a heart for these victim and created this movie in honor of them. A thumbs up for them.
After watching the movie, decided to have dinner before going back to our hotel. So early, I want to shop for something.Problem is that they have no sales at all.Haizzz...Oh well, went back with my parents.Feeling pretty energetic yet bored as there's nothing to do today but to just window shopping around.
Went back, shower up and watch the tv for an hour before slleping ang hugging the pillows, a little better today instead of yesterday..=D
To be continued =)
