happy 43rd Singapore

well, it's singapore's national day today
so..i shall post something concerning it eh ?
i was actually thinking of making a design for this have a scattered thoughts in my head for this
but then, with so much things to do right now and am my physically and mentally tired state
i guess i'd just grab a rest tonight and forgo the design
well, indonesia's national day's coming up
definitely will do it then :D

anyway,

happy birthday Singapore,
it's been some 8 amazing years...
and over these years, countless people had asked me over and over again,
where do i enjoy staying more, back home or here in singapore ?
well, i do love every single bit of moment i have back home, i spend only about 3 months a year back home and the rest of the 9 months in singapore, i'd have to admit that i'm definitely feel more productive when i'm here. well, may be because that i'm totally free and alone here with no restrictions whatsoever

these 8 years had been great
it is also because that i'm in singapore that i could develop and learn more about photography
nevertheless, staying here all by myself and all had definitely it's down side

for one,
i totally can't withstand and totally hate noisy places, noisy conditions, noisy people
it'd evoke my temper right away, on the spot
it had happened over and over
during group meetings, where the girls are always loud and all
crowded places....bus etc...
that's why it's really rare that i'm out without my earpiece and the iphone to blast all the song goodness in the ear deaftening the surrounding noise
i guess these are because of the silence in here that's always surrounding me..the room is rarely filled with noise and the only loudness it tolerates are the sound of music

well, that's one fact about me :D


Singapore, is definitely my second home now and i can also say that most of my beautiful memories are all here, i grew up here..somethign i wouldn't admit may be 4 years ago....

anyway,
3 pics from the esplanade area











didn't had the time to go down and shoot more and for these also i was actually caught unprepared.
well, may be if i can settle my things by the afternoon later on, i might just pop by to esplanade again to shoot some fireworks or something

happy birthday, Singapore.

has anyone read or seen "the secret ?"

if not go BUY the book now !
or you can WATCH it here

http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/secret.php

personally, i'd recommend buying the book
AND watching it also
lol

for those of you who don't know
er..i'd just type the words from the back of the book d

"It has been passed down through the ages, highly coveted, hidden, lost, stolen, and bought for vast sums of money. This centuries-old Secret has been understood by some of the most prominent people in history: Plato, Galileo, Beethoven, Edison, Carnegie, Einstein-along with other inventors, theologians, scientists, and great thinkers. Now The Secret is being revealed to the world."

"As you learn The Secret, you will come to know how you can have, be, or do anything you want. You will come to know who you really are. You will come to know the true magnificence that awaits you in life." -from the Introduction.





go go go go
go buy
go watch
it's damn marvelous i tell you

i'm half-way down the book already
and i've watched the movie
and i shall say this

"best damn book i've ever bought. worth even more than the price i've paid for it" - b


see, the day before
on my second day of having the book
halfway down the book
out of curiosity, i've decided to give it a try
so i sum up whatever i've read
and just did it one by one

what i tried was pretty lame i know
but the thing was just...

anyway
here it goes

as i went out from dover mrt station
i made this decision of trying that
on the overhead bridge, on my way to the bus stop
there were practically 3 buses that could sent me home there
i decided not to run
as i was pretty darn tired then
then i decided i'm just gonna try on this bus thing
as i reach the escalator
all of the 3 buses left
and i said this to myself

"a double decker bus will come once i reach the bus stop after my count to three"

to further convince myself further once i got to the bus stop
i took a glance at the bus numbers
and decided that

"a double decker bus number 14 will come on my count to three"

why number 14 ?
because that's the longest period the bus comes to that particular bus stop
and it's the most seldom bus i took home

i began to visualize the bus coming
boarding the bus
very few people inside

and once i had really concentrate all my thoughts there
i closed my eyes
and count to three

1

2

3

i open my eyes
and GUESS WHAT !

a double decker bus came !!!
exactly like i've seen it in my vision earlier !

i was "OH MY GOD !"
but what
i decided earlier that it'll be number 14 !

as it was still damn far
i couldn't really firgure out the number then
but as it approaches

YES
IT WAS BUS 14

can you believe it ?
i can

and yes
there were only like 2 people inside the bus on the lower deck
JUST LIKE I'VE VISIONED IT


and just last night
i decided to give it another try
i ask myself what i really want
i wrote down 3 things
but decided then that i'll concentrate on one of them first

again
guess what ?
this morning, my friend sms me telling me about that thing
then i went to my calculator
calculate my finance
oh man
