My god! The second time? How can I be so freaking stupid? Was I born without intelligence, without the ability to learn? This just proves that the entire Homo sapiens are assholes by nature. You should never ever trust anyone. Full stop. Arghh, haven't I learned anything the first time around? WTF Min!!
So full of rage. Some one's gonna f***ing pay for screwing with me like this. Two can play at this game. I DO NOT forgive.
Almost gave up hope trying to sort out all the Notts picture. Luckily found one good picture worth making an entire entry about and therefore restoring all faith.
This post is actually dedicated to Caryn and Yau who refuses to take their pictures in RAW- although their camera supports it. One of the most crucial aspect for me when buying my DSLR was whether it can handle RAW. Let's try a HDR technique to show and somewhat exaggerate the effect.
First, take five pictures in RAW using five different exposures.
+2 Exposure
+1 Exposure
+0 Exposure
-1 Exposure
-2 Exposure
Then compress them into one file- use photoshop or other software out there.
Final compressed file
Tweak the setting to choose which part of the 5 different exposure shows up on the final picture i.e use the sky on the -2 exposure and the highlights on the tress with the +1 or +2 exposure.
Selecting the area
Run it through PS to add some contrast, minor colour adjustments here and there, crop as needed and voila!
Tada!!
To exaggerate it even further. Increase a lil' bit of contrast and change it to a pseudopanaromic shot to draw the eyes towards the park gate and the people feeding the ducks.
Randomness...
First of all, a GREAT BIG SHOUT out to Andy who finally matured turned 22 this year. Ah bless. Can now enjoy the 22nd year of my life without feeling too old. Since it was obviously a surprise, didn't know he actually had something going on. So rushed through the whole celebration.
Picture says it all...
Planning the surprise...
Secondly, learned a valuable lesson. Never sing that blasted Avinder's song to the Ang Moh's. The song brought wide-eyed looks and agape mouths. Note to self: that song is a 'no no' with Ang Moh's. Haha.
Thirdly, Maha and Andy have this wicked thing going on. Basically, Maha would erm...'force' herself jokingly into Andy. We all know it's a joke, Andy know it's a joke, but he still blushes furiously every single time. Somehow or another; Maha made this comment that she'll wash his hair for him. Which then lead to the surprise birthday gift; a shampoo. :-D
Allow me to digress somewhat- just got back from dinner with them just now, and Maha made a comment about 'stroking Andy's pear' and 'showing him 4 white hairs that normally cant be seen'. Of course we interpret it as sexual innuendoes, who on earth wont? The funny thing was, the original comment was entirely innocent.
Love duets.
We did the best we can to wrap that hilarious shampoo bottle.
He had it coming
Fourthly, Andy does not like his picture taken. Hence, he only has two looks.
Look 1: 'The disgusted' look
Look 2: 'My face have just been injected with the botulinum toxin' look.
Happy Birthday Bro!! Glad to have you on board our pbl group.
Oh, before I move on; ample time breeds ample opportunities.
Eeek!!

So, GUESS who managed to grace us Mancunians with her Royal presence?
Her Royal Highness Prom Queen Caryn Koh.
*applause from an imaginary crowd*
Caryn arrived on Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately, I was busy handling a few things and thus unable to meet her. Had a very special outing with her for the ENTIRE Sunday. Yup, you heard me! She was all mine mine mine for one whole day. Will blog about Sunday some other time. Have something special planned for that. You'll just have to wait and see. :-D
Oh, but I just cant help myself from giving away spoilers. Here's a sneak preview...
It involves a tunnel...
and a street filled with lime...
Oh yeah, finally got a hair cut. The fact that I can chew my own hair was a sign.
Post Sunday trip, was so hungry that we decided to swung by Rusholme for a quickie (I meant food!) and met up with Angie.
3 Ju On's
I swear, the picture was meant to be nice; but the light falling on Angy's face was simply an opportunity to good to be missed.
For some reason or another, when other people visit Manchester, it always always turns out that we're not free. Caryn was forced to wander Manchester aimlessly for the entire Monday morning before we meet up with her again after class (7 pm). What a pity. What's more, somebody just have to stay in Manchester for only 2 days. She was briskly whisked away by damn Leeds and Liverpool people. Hate them so much!!
Our Last Supper
A very newly created pose by Angy. Angy, you still have yet to name your pose. We're waiting. Better call it something good.
Goodbye Caryn; Till we meet again.
As usual, saying goodbye is hard. Especially when you're close to someone. Caryn is probably the first one I've met from Malaysia that I'm truly close to. Missing you loads edi babe. Time together was freakin' awesome. Take care and have a wonderful flight back. Looking forward to seeing you again.
P.s You have NOT gained any weight whatsoever and it's only in your mind.
