This coming mth..

This mth, August, Yanting is going to be very thirfty.

Yanting has to eat budget and live budget.

No more lazy taxi rides for yanting. At least for this mth.

No more expansive restaurant indulgence (cept for the buffet @ Green hse/Glass hse which was booked more than 2 mths back)

Yanting's aim is to spend less than $600 this month.

Are you starting to get curious why yanting needs to save money??

Because yanting's going to NZ in SEPT!!!

Because yanting's eyeing a sturdy yet light tripod which cost maybe $600.

Because yanting's thinking of getting a fish eye lens or wide angle lens to bring to NZ.

Because yanting wanna go horse ridding, black water rafting, Glazier walk, sky diving, skiing/snow boarding, star gazing and many many more.

Hence, be a friend not foe.

Do not temp yanting to spend money unnecessary. Even when yanting is tired of being thrifty/stingy, do not encourage yanting to eat expansively or shop unnecessary unless you are more than willing to pay for yanting. But pls note, this will not make yanting feel more oblige to buy some souvenirs from NZ for you.

In case you start wondering how come yanting seldom to never buy souvenirs back for ppl she care most for.. Pls remember

1/ Yanting was fined AUD$200 for overloading her luggage when she came back one summer holiday with PODS and Cadbury chocolate which was made readily available in SG several years later.

2/ The places Yanting normally go does not entitle her to make many shopping trips. Unless you dun mind getting some bit of nature which yanting will try her hardest to steal for you or the typical Made In China products that are everywhere.

3/ Yanting is not as rich as you ALL think she is. She has her debts to return, bills to pay and a Darcy to feed and groom.

4/ To cut the story short, Yanting is not the caring kinda girl who will think of everyone else enough to buy them a souvenir each. Instead yanting is a insensitive girl who will only remember you when she sees something that she think you will like and then hence getting the souvenir for you. So, if yanting brings back a gift for you, remember, its unique and for you specially.

But, if theres something you really want from NZ, pls dun hesistate to let yanting know and she will try to remember in her pea size brain to bring the item back for you. A sms everynow and then while she's still in NZ will helps a lot. Seriously. Because yanting will be too busy enjoying every second over there.

Darcy...

The poor boy been LS-ing for the past 2 days. It was so bad that he woke me up in the middle of the nite to open the door for him so that he can go poo. First he will start by scratching the floor under the door and all sort of noise. Den when he sense tt i'm awake yet fall back into bed. He will let out a whine which will have me on my toes in less than 2 seconds to open the door for him. Den he wld dash (seriously DASH) out of my room to find his pee/poo pen.

The funny thing was, when he first LS, he went to the toilet, at the shower area and did his business. Nobody taught him to do it there. It was always the pee/poo pen. But he went to do it in the toilet by himself. But i made the mistake of shutting him in the toilet after he'd done his business as i went to find toilet paper to clean his ass. He thought he was being punished hence he went to do his business on the pen after that. Personally, i wld prefer that he just do it in the toilet as its so much easier to clean.

Passion, Stupidity or simply too much time on hand?

Woke up at 4.45am this morning and hitch a ride to Changi Boardwalk to capture the sunrise. Wasnt expecting much so wasnt too disappointed.

Aft the photo-taking session, we went for breakfast at the nearby Changi Food Center. Had a plate of wan tan mee and started stoning.


Over there, even thou it was only 7plus-8 in the moring, you see different groups of ppl, there for different things. Just the nearby neighbours having their breakfast, the fishing gang with their baits or harvest, the cycling gang who cycle from dunnoewhere and here for their 'motivational meal and drinks' and there's us, the shooters who came from different parts of Singapore to capture 'The Moment'.

Seriously, some of you might be thinking 'siao.. wake up so early do this kinda things. i was still comfortably tuck in my warm bed and nothing can seduce me out this early in the morning.'


I guess you must be having a very non-fullfilling life then. You have my deepest sympathy. Seriously.


Simply said, I'm glad that i've the time to be stupid enough to have a passion for something i enjoy.

Pls go find your passion. Because you never know when this passion of yours will be the one thing that is keeping you sane in this insane world.

P.S:. Aft a yr w my 450D, i finally started shooting in RAW format. But the thing is, i do not know how to load the picts from my camera into my labby. This is real stupidity lor.

A yr ago..

One yr ago, by a weird(shall nt say evil) force, a devil was born into a handsome body.

He knows how to act pathetic when he knows he had done something wrong.

He knows that by jumping onto ppl when they are eating or barking at them continuously will either earn him some rewards or some beatings.

He knows that by showing how happy he is to see you home by flying into the air and jumping at you will take away part of the beating and scolding that he will be getting when you discover the shoes that had been chewed and the paper that he torn.

He knows that you cant resist an early morning cuddle and he will take the opportunity to lick your face and nose while you hold him close to you.

He knows that he can be picky with his food because once he show no interest, the food will be taken away and replace by something more interesting and most likely more meaty.

He knows he's the king of the house as noone can catch him and the more people who participate in the chase will increase his sense of achievement.

He knows, maybe not, how happy i'm that he is in my life and how much more colourful my life has become. To date, i've not regret choosing this handsome devil and i hope for his coming years that nv will i have to regret.

Happy Birthday Darcy!

Though i know not who your parents are, where you were born,how many siblings you have and how long you can live to. I know i'm damn glad to have you!
