Drew – Not just any other.

Holidays are almost over. Another month or so. Haven’t been very productive lately. Been sleeping 5-6am and waking up 12-1 pm for a few days now. Catching up with my new series, Stargate Atlantis. Finally caught up only to find out they are canceling the series. Season 5 will be the last one. Pretty damn upset. Good mix for a sci-fi show.

Followed Kinz to learn some night shots couple of days back. The sky was very clear, so I decided to try it out. Grabbed my tripod and my camera and followed kinz.

From PJ to the Heart of KL

Here’s a picture of KL Tower and the Petronas Twin-Tower from approx 20-30km away. My Exposure was a wee bit high so you see the town area very active but it’s actually not quite like that.

Well, if you want to have a closer look do check out kinz blog. This was the most I could zoom in. Made the picture redder* to give a Mars look over the horizon. Also I did try a new tool I found in the camera. And I got this picture.

It’s a picture of the Sky kingdom and the towers together. I like the sight but I guess the exposure was a little too much. First attempt.

PJ (small section)

Enjoy the pictures. Almost time to prepare to go back for uni.

mum & dad

Happy Birthday Mumma… Celebrated my mom’s birthday + sister’s birthday at the Lemon Garden Cafe, Shangrila Hotel, KL. Well, the food there is always good as usual. I probably had everything under the roof except the Chinese cuisine. Got up at 10, got ready at 11.30, grabbed my camera and we headed to KL. Good place to practice my photographic skills. Beginners need to learn.

3rd helping I think

First helping was salad. All the salad with all the sauce with all the add-ons. The second helping was … also vegetable and 7 types of cheese. My pictures aren’t that good. Still learning how to take the pictures with a more contrasting effect. Weekdays you will see this place crowded with people in coats, jackets and blazers but on weekends you see this place filled with kids and parents. It’s actually very crowded once we sat in. The crowd just kept coming till it was packed. People only started to leave around 2 plus.

My sister's + Niece dessert helping

With Italian food one corner, Western Food and salad along the same row, seafood and mix dish in the center, Indian Cuisine at one other side along with Chinese Dishes at the other corner of the cafe/restaurant there is just simply nothing you won’t find appealing to your taste requirements. Did I mention desserts along with a chocolate fountain, probably not. Many of the cake designs are a real

I like the cake..

The Fountain of choc

2nd Nephew James

After stuffing myself with a few kilograms of food and dessert. I headed outside to practice my camera shots with the fountain. Managed to get this shot. It’s not much though. Still alot to learn about outdoor photography.

Yesterday was theeee blue day for me. Woke up at 6.58am for work. Got ready by 7.20am. Just getting up from the bed feels so hard because of the dull looking sky that comes from a combination of cloudy skies mixed with some haze. You get a greyish set of sky where the sun only provides partial light to the sky. Plus.. It was a Monday, Monday Blues.

Weekend was good. Headed down to Sg Wang sat morning and got myself a DSLR. Pretty damn happy with it. It’s a Nikon D60. After that, headed home and slept for 1/2 the afternoon. After dinner, Leon and I headed to Ss15 for yam cha with Dee Mei at McD’s. Pretty happy about that too ! On Sunday, it wasn’t as good, just nother boring weekend. Stayed home watching my series.

Well.. here’s to a couple of boring days!

And my New replaced Copperhead!!

Well, this is the second part of it. I might as well do it now. After Karl Son’s birthday, life was pretty uneventful during weekdays. The next weekend I went to KLCC with DeeMei. Took the LRT there, as it is the easiest means of transportation. We watch “the Dark Knight”. It was a pretty awesome show so to speak. The storyline was very well written as well as the characters in the show. For some twisted reason, I kinda like the Joker’s sadistic actions as well as the way he laughs.. Of course there’s the now famous phrase “why so serious?” HEHEHEHAHAHAHA….

Carbonara Beef Spaghetti @ KLConCentre for RM 10.00

Anyway, after Dark Knight, we headed to the Aquaria in KL Convention Centre. Pretty neat place however it was kind of small to my taste. RM 20 bucks student price is a little pricey I think but it’s sort of a one time thing so what the heck. Let’s check it out. Once inside the feeling is totally different. Decorations and props were a big feature inside.

Oh Big fish in Blue water

Leaves draping from the ceiling, vines branching all along the corridor. There are all kinds of fascinating reptiles, amphibians, and of course, fish! 1001 kinds of fish you can find in there.

sssstarfish...

Then there was the piranha! Who can miss that? Pretty neat bunch of fish. Maybe I should just jump to the big fish section. Too many small fish will take up all of this post already.

Piranha!! or baby piranha..

Before that, check this dude out. A small croc in a window. There is an ocean tunnel where they store big fish, small fish, shark, stingray, and bigger fish.

Well, it’s quite a short tunnel where there was a conveyor belt and a walkway. about 55mm thick glass. There was a sign saying everything seen through the glass are 30% smaller than actual size. So it’s BIG! BIG ASS SHARK! There was also one big ass fish as big as the shark.

He looks uber slow, nothing like the shark.

Left for home after Aquaria. Had a really good time there and then.. gup gup..

All pictures were taken with CANON IXUS 800IS. Gonna get my DSLR soon I hope.

That’s it for part II. Till the next one, Adios!
