Nostalgia

I booted up the computer to download some shots I took on my handphone to email off to a client tomorrow. checked my email in the process. received an email from a long lost high school friend. she's got 2 sons now. very adorable boys. it brought back a surge of memories. memories of us when we were two young naive girls chatting away about boys... it's really amazing how time flies. both of us are almost reaching our 30s. she with 2 kids, me just married and madly in love with my work!
as i was going thru her profile on friendster, my heart started racing wildly. that name, is it the same person i thought it is? for years i have wanted to hear about him. many painful years. i guess it wasnt because the high school puppy love never went away. its just the curiosity. curiosity thats greater than what a cat may possess in it. 13 years since i last saw him and never a word or any news of how he is doing, what he has become. all i know is he is in singapore. at least, thats the last i have heard of him.
memories, they came flooding back. that warm smile, those dreamy eyes. how i have tried to know more about him, to know him as a person. yet the chance were scarce. and 2 years passed by ever so swiftly. and then he was gone. eversince that day, i have always been trying to get in touch again. but he seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. if only one day, i can meet him again... just to know he is well and happy...
but to my disappointment the name i saw in my friend's list isnt the same guy i thought he is. sigh... mebbe one day someday, i'll hear of him or see him again...

Black and white shots















































Koi

Contemplating to print this into a large canvas and hang on my living hall... Shot it in Camerons last year and manipulated the image in Photoshop.

Malacca

I took a short break last weekend and decided to visit Malacca. I have not been to this snug, little historic city for the past 8 years. My trip there this time was really unexpectedly pleasant. It was amazing how this small, rustic city have so much to offer. There is so much to see, eat, shop and shoot! Jonker Street is my favourite. It is bursting with art, every corner of it. From old, colourful shophouses with heavy Nyonya influence to cool, arty cafes and art galleries... It is like a gift box full of little surprises awaiting to be discovered... It was such a pity my time there was too short and it was pretty devastating not to have an SLR with me then!
Nevertheless... as always, I need to snap some pictures. Yes, using my pathetic digital camera which is NOT an SLR but what the heck... Here are some shots...

Light and Shadows...

Saw this in a small village house on my trip back from Camerons. Liked the way the evening sunlight stream through the old fashioned grill doors.

Flying in the Clouds

Shot this on my trip back to KL recently. Wish I had the SLR instead.
