I guess I'm feeling better now after talking to Cheryl on msn, SJ on the phone, and rachel for what you've said. Love you guys alot. Anyways, here's some pictures to share. It shows the lifestyle of Singaporeans and how inconsiderate people can really be.

This picture shows a table in NYP's canteen filled with plates. Well, if there weren't anyone to clear up after us, then what's gonna happen. Is every table gonna have a mountain of plates on them? I thought in secondary school, we were taught to clear our own dishes. Maybe they should implement this.
Having too many things to carry? Bring along a hook next time you take the MRT. After some trains like this one has poles that allow you to hang your stuff onto them. This is how inconsiderate Singaporean's can get! It's totally ridiculous!
Is Singapore's East-West line going to be removed? What's up with this train directory. Perhaps SMRT should be doing something about this. Why leave signs that tell you half the story?

I've been blogging so much about friends. And may sound like what I posted on the 14th of July. Even though it hasn't been much of a 'good experience' for me, I have learnt alot through all that I've been through.

Firstly, I just think I'm different from everyone else around me. I mean everyone's different, BUT, I think I'm just so exceptional. I think TOTALLY differently, talk TOTALLY differently, and I guess, act TOTALLY differently. And through this, I have come to realise one thing, only through friends know who I really am, feel the way I'm feeling, and know what our friendship is all about. Thank you all my friends, who have always been there for me.

"True friends DO NOT laugh at you for what you've done, they laugh because you bring laughter to them..."

Secondly, people just think that they are always right, and I'm wrong! Like how cool can that be. The thing about these people is that, they live in their own pathetic life, having people around them that 'think' the same way, which is totally stupid. Because this group just do not think before they even act.

I'm just sad that things have to turn out this way. I just thought thinks would go smoothly with projects and all. But it just ain't. Am I too much of a perfectionist?
Group work is when a group works together, working things about together. Sadly, individualism is what I see all the time. It may seem like a group, because people look at the surface, but if you really go and study it closely, you will know how individualistic everyone is though you don't see it.

Everyone's doing things their own way, no one wants to give in. And it ends up with the case of you do what you want, there's no need to tell anyone anything. Well, often, it ends up a disaster because it's all about what one person thinks, not what a group feels. What you get in the end is a heavy chest filled with bronze not gold. It ends up with me having to figure everything out almost last minute only to be rejected. I've said my piece, ever since the beginning. No one hears, well, WE bear the consequences.

It just sums up how things really are. It ain't the outcome I'd love to see, but it's the consequence of an outcome. People will come to realise one day, somehow. I don't know when, but I hope people will learn to be more sensitive, and think more maturely, more of the real world sense. If you're thinking out of the box, think again, you're just thinking out of a puny ring box that's in a huge crate.

So long... that's all I have to say for now...

After all those hectic days of painting shoes, displaying them, and shooting, along with crazy projects, the stress is subsiding with 3 presentations to go (at least the reports are done), updating of Simplyshoes, further enchancement of advertising, and lotsa pictures to edit. At least these aren't so stressful things to do. But even as things begin to subside, it will soon reach a peak when exams arrive in 16 days. Meanwhile, I shall just shall some pictures at The e-Biz Exhibition, brought to you by Justin Kon Photography, official partner for photography at the event.

More? Visit my Flickr!
Up coming would be some pictures of the National Museum clothed in colourful lights as well as.... you'll find out soon. =D

It's been three crazily busy days for me including today, though I slept half the day, being awefully tired and exhausted. For THOSE who still do not know, I have been at SMU the past 2 days exhibiting my shoes(simplyshoes) as well as being their official partner for photography for the exhibition I am doing which is 'The E-biz Exhibition(tee in short). Just a short update, wait till I'm a little more free to edit the pictures, a little more free to blog, a little more free to take a breather. Had quite some fun throughout the 2 days there though it was really tiring.
Thanks Janet, Clement, Rachel and Grace for coming down to visit me. Really appreciate it alot. And though I've told so many people about it, only these people came down to support me. And this sometimes tell me who are the people I can perhaps count on, the people who I can call friends. I wonder where everyone else went to. Even my dad came down on the first day, which I was rather surprised too. Though you could not come down, I know you took the effort, and I know you're always supporting me, thanks Aaron.

It isn't easy doing what I am doing especially when I do not have any friends, or even, anyone around me with the same interest as me. What I can count on is the support of my family and really close friends.

Goodnight!

I'm back! I mean it's just three days, though it's more like me if I were to blog everyday. I'm just too busy with so many things, and I'm having a spliting headache now! Just an update for the past three days. (just the highlights of each day)

Friday - 180708
Managed to take a peep at the National Museum for awhile. Saw the pictures for the SYPA(Singapore Young Photographer's Award), and sadly, the pictures wasn't something I really was expecting. Quite a number of shots were taken overseas. And frankly speaking, I can't remember any pictures I saw because non of them captured my attention. O well, in competitions, it's all about what the judge likes. What's nice to me may not be nice to them after all. Met up with rachel and aaron at Al-ameen at night for some supper. Didn't talk much. stoned. ha.
Saturday - 190708
DG as per normal, celebrated Dancia's birthday. And that was about it. =D The picture is taken with a frame cum birthday card I made for her.
And for today, it was BPMC's main service vs WOW is soccer at Queensway Sec Sch. Pretty exciting though there was a little drizzle. Score? 4-4. ha. WOW scored 4 in the first half inclusive of 1 own goal, and the main service scored 4 in the second half. As a result, this has spurred the adults to have another match with us. And that's about it. More pictures up soon. =D
On top of all these, I've been squeezing my brain juices, sleeping late everyday, thinking of all the weirdest designs I can come up with, and that's because my exhibition cum bazaar stall is coming up this friday and saturday! Details as follows:

Date: 25-26 July 2008
Time: 12pm to 10pm
Venue: SMU School of Economics and Social Sciences Ground Floor
Please do come and support Simplyshoes!

I finally decided that I was sick, and needed to head to the doctor to get some medicine and a MC. Though I had a test today(8chapters for a test!), I knew I wasn't prepared, plus all the sneezing the past night, the past days. I thought, I just needed some rest, some time alone. I'm physically tired, mentally exhausted, spiritually dry.

Resting after I had my medicine, I felt much better. I knew I couldn't sleep long cos I had many things awaiting me to do. A call from Clement seemed great, but after hearing that the test was relatively easy IF you had studied, and him telling me that the re-test had a HUGE CHUNK MORE TO STUDY, I was wondering if I should have gone for the test despite my body failing on me.

Am I putting just too much pressure on myself? I just don't like studying, but why am I pushing myself so hard despite knowing that my scores cannot make it to any local U. I want to study no more. And how about shoes? Should I take it as just a passion or a big time business full of potential. With so many things to do, and with only 24hrs each day, it really isn't easy to decide what you really want.

Perhaps, it's time to say I really need help from my friends, though it's kinda hard to find someone that has the same desire, same passion as me. As Yvonne and Clement were talking, this phrase really got into my head, 'I've done my part as a friend, have you?'. So have you done your part as my friend, if you really are my friend?

I need to vent it out! It's times like this that I truely need my friends. True friends, best friends, my friends that love me.
I'm frustrated, pissed, moody, and I just feel like crumbling myself to pieces. It's really hard to get things done when the people around you don't see the real intention in doing something. It's sad when you see people doing things for the sake of doing it, not putting pride into what they do. It's worse when your friend's don't understand you, don't understand your intentions, don't understand how hard you are trying to get things right. Wait a minute, are those friends?
I guess doing projects with a group of many leaders may not be a good thing after all. Everyone has their own way of doing things and sometime's it's just difficult to meet eye to eye. Given my pride and way of doing things, I think I've given alot of leeway in seeing things done though I may not like it.
Why don't I have friends/people around that have the same ideology as me. And because they don't have that, does that mean I'm wrong all the time? Am I always the helper and not the one getting the help when I need it?

I need friends, friends that understand me. These 2 weeks will be rather hectic for me. With projects, crazy tesssts, shoes to pain, businesses to negotiate and a upcoming exhibition next week, plus photoshoots to do. I need friends to help me, friends that share my passion, share my desire, and love me for what I do.

I guess life's like that for me. In all things, it's about God's timing and plan...

Today's Youth Sunday, according to the Chinese Annual Conference(CAC) calander. As such, the service was combined. To cut things short, since I had many more things to do, the sermon was really GOOD! But of course, words had to come out of a wonderful speaker with God speaking through her. The sermon was something about God speaking to young people. Often, as we grow older, we sometimes do get tired of serving and even as God speaks to us, we can't hear him. This lesson has taught me plenty and I'm glad, it really spoke to me. And here's Aaron my good friend giving his testimony. =D
And after all that happened in church, my best pals and I went over to Marina Square to have lunch. Pretty far for lunch, but yes, we had fun talking. After all, I had to head over to SMU for a network working session after that.
And as said, I went over to SMU, School of Social Sciences, for a networking session by 'Tee', a committee that is organising a ebiz exhibition, for which I will be exhibiting my shoes as well! This session allows bother entrepreuners taking part, as well as partners like me(Justin Kon Photography), to get to know more people, make friends, and talk business together. This has also allowed me to broaden my social circle. I certainly had alot of fun making new friends, and I believe, this will also be a platform for many new business opportunities. I believe that business is not always about making me first, it's all about the passion you have for something you love.
Taking the opportunity I had, I snapped a picture of the National Museum from the 5th floor, where we were at.
Opportunities do not come all the time, sieze every moment you have, make full use of it!

It was 2 shoots in 1 day yesterday. First up, it was Lee An's Concert at NYP held at the Theatre for the Arts. Of course, for full coverage, visit my flickr! =D

Next up, it was to Keppel Country Club to do a company dinner shoot for Effion Technologies Pte Ltd. Was invited by Wei Rong and his parents to be the photographer. And surprisingly, there was Foreign Bodies from NYP there to do a dance as well. Small world. It's even a smaller world meeting my secondary school friend jonathan there as well. The scenery there was great, especially at Sunset. After the passing rain, God gave us a wonderful sight. The sky was just so orangy, and then red. It was a magnificant sight.

For full coverage, visit my Flickr! =D

Being kinda bored and stonny, taking my mind off all the work I had to do, I decided to do picture story of being 'bored'. All these pictures were taken in the studio yesterday. Enjoy them! =D Dedicated to all my friends and everyone in the pictures..

When you get bored & start stonning, with the dazed look in your eyes...
When it gets so bored... nothing more than photography relieves your passion...
It's just a phone call away... make it... and make someone's day...
When flash lights blind you... your tears just wanna leave you...
You just wanna write it down... All over again...
Life... it's boring sometimes...
When even a blower finds company in a camera...
Here... A rose for you...
Cheer up... Be happy... Cos I'll always be there for you...


To make it simpler... Here's a video... just for you...(no music). Quality may be poor that's why I wrote everything out instead. =D
