Emoh.

Sighs. I guess Minghui has been really emo lately.

Picture was taken on a really stormy and dark afternoon. Wanted to take pictures of the flashes of lightning that kept appearing, but the lightning simply refused to strike where my camera was aimed and I was so impatient so I gave up. Drew the words and smiley with a permanent black marker on my room window instead. =) Focus set to manual and the final image was desaturated/edited in Photoshop.



I remember you telling me the sky was dark like how I seemed so troubled. And I wish we could go back. =(

Fireworks Festival 2008.

Went out on Saturday to catch Fireworks at the Marina Bay floating platform. Official site for the festival celebration thing is here. =)

Met up with Koon Tat first, then Ivan and View Meng, then Stephen and Lenson, then Ryan, then met Alvin at Plaza Sing.

Went to Carl's Junior for an early dinner first. Then went walking around doing random things. Slacked for a while at Esplanade because it was raining. =D

Stephen the next top model. Haha.

Okay this picture looks rather scary. Taken by Stephen, and you can't really see anything because it's underexposed. -.- But after Photoshop=

It's a piece of Ryan's lens tissue btw. And Alvin's hand.

Obligatory Koon Tat shot. =D He can't use the computer so he won't see this! Haha.

Patapon! Hahaha. Tried really hard to beat the level on Ivan's PSP but it's impossible!

Credits to Stephen for taking the pictures. Because I'm the one playing, heehee.

Found a spot near the Esplanade, then set up our 4 tripods, haha. That Lenson go kop my space la. -.- Did lots of stupid things whilst waiting around. =D

City Skyline. Probably have a nicer picture, but I'm really lazy to go look through so I just chose this at random. =D

Haha. Then this really stupid thing happened like just before the fireworks.

Everyone was all standing around looking out for the fireworks to start when I whispered to the few of us standing in front with our cameras to look behind at some random tree and see who would look. Then just as we looked behind, the fireworks started. Hahaha. =/

Nice firework picture number 1.

Nice firework picture number 2.

Okay I'm really bored of posting nice firework pictures already. Do check out Lenson's or Ryan's blogs for much nicer looking pictures. Or flickr for super awesome ones.

I shall post the failed attempts instead! Hahaha.

Too many fireworks in the picture. =\

Too few fireworks in the picture. =/

Don't know how or why or when I took this, but I think it looks rather cool! Hahahaha.

Walked to Marina Square after it ended, then walked to Suntec and bought a drink at MacDonald's.

For View Meng, whom requires lots of Pins. Taken by Stephen. =)



Walked back to City Hall, then took a train back home.

New Headphones.

Okay I haven't blogged in a long time. I wish I could say I was busy studying, but er..haha.

Got back my prelim results a couple of days back. Really depressing, because I sort of did really badly in every single subject. Except, ironically, my Chinese O levels. =/ Like, not a single A for any subject at all. =(

Bought a new pair of headphones because my old one was really old already. As in, November 14th 2006? So I went to get a new pair at Bras Basah some Sunday ago. $47.90, but since I'm not the one paying. =P


Patrick checking out the sound quality. =)


Oh, and my pen broke. =( Was spinning it whilst walking down from the spiral staircase in school one fine day when the pen flew from my fingers down to the ground floor. Tip snapped off. Sighs, now I don't have anything to spin. =\

Okay, can't think of anything to blog about anymore. =D

Finally finished I guess. Haha. Okay time to sleep! =)

Clarke Quay.

Went down to Clarke Quay with Ryan and Lenson last Saturday to take pictures. Haha.

Met them first at Hougang Station, then had a drink at Starbucks before walking around the place. Gosh, tried out Lenson's super expensive new lens also. =O

Okay, took quite a lot of pictures. =)

Yellow Flower!


The difference between the standard kit lens and Lenson's 70-200mm VR lens. O.O

Black and White.


There were a bunch of bands performing at various locations as part of a charity fund-raising event, Tapestry 08. =)

Shot most of the pictures optimized for high contrast and high saturation, so all the pictures look rather vivid. Haha. =)





Okay, was trying to make it look as if Lenson was resting his lens on the top of that building, but I don't think it really worked. Haha.


I have no idea why I take pictures of such pointless stuff. =)

Really no idea. =D









Haha. We were like standing in the middle of the road waiting for the traffic light. =D

Went for cookies and a drink at Subway after walking around for quite some time.

Eat Fresh. Haha.

In the spirit of the ongoing Beijing 2008 Olympics. =) Logo drawn on a Subway serviette by me. =D

Maaaagiccc. Hahaha.

Imagine: Mu Chen, Denise and Lenson. Hahahaha. =D

Oh one thing that was really weird was that people were like staring at the three of us. Especially at Lenson and his super professional looking lens. Haha. Sometime it's really funny and awkward when someone with a not-so-pro camera walks past us and is like staring balantly. =D

Went off towards Marina Bay after some time at Subway.

Caption: Weeee!
Haha. I want to try that someday man. ;D

Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection

Okay I think the sky looked really nice that day. Or maybe it's because of my camera settings, haha. =P

Awesome job to have. Haha. =D



This cat was super dao lor. Haha.


We weren't in time to catch the Sun set. So we caught the Moon rise instead. =D



My rather horrid attempt at the standard generic Singapore postcard kind of picture. =)

Lots of tourists. =)

Okay this picture looks like it was photoshopped. But it wasn't! Hahaha. =O



Rather scary looking fountain figure. =O


Walked all the way to City Hall, then had dinner at Burger King's before heading back. =D
