Another one of my favourite photoes

Well, actually it was meant to be put with the previous post but I haven't learn the skills of resizing back then ... hehehe

All right then, just a short one this time ...

Enjoy ...

Trial & Error

As promised, here is one of the photoes I took for the engagement ... The event turned out OK, for a first-timer I didn't do THAT bad ... Well, I am a bit proud of the results ... A little bit of practice and a lot more of knowledge, perhaps I will be on my way to something great ...

Anyway, we were officially selected as the photographer for the upcoming wedding in April ... Actually, my husband is the one officially 'elected' since I am just his invisible sidekick ... That's the truth la Honey, you need not to sugar-coat it ... I am too 'well-versed' in this issue ... I am OK with it ... As long as I know it is my work and I took pride in my work ... If is is good for me, I need not other people's compliment or approval to appreciate a job well done by me. What is more important is that you know and I know ...

Well, folks - enjoy the photo ;)

Sweet dessert & Oyen

My first attempt at making 'pengat keladi bersagu' and the result :) I guess you can say that it was a success since it attracted Oyen to try it ... Hehehe

Anyway, latest news would be the new semester for UNIKL had started this week, so had my new semester as the senior student of OUM and so far, it is all fine & merry. Hope it would be smooth throughout the whole year.

This weekend, I would be taking photoes for my hubby's cousin's engagement. Since that would be my first experiment, pray that it would turn out OK. If the photoes are any good ... perhaps I would post some here ...

Till later ... Have a great weekend everyone.

My baby-steps towards photojournalism

For the 2nd post for today, I thought I would share with you a photograph that I took recently at my hometown ... This is among the first attempts in photography ... thanks to my husband who handed down his Nikon D40X to me :) Thanks Honey ...

For those who are wondering what kind of plant this is, it's 'ulam raja' - a herb commonly eaten raw with rice among the Malay community ...

Enjoy ...

A Brand New Year :)

After so long ... I am back - writing here ... trying to make sense of the world that evolves around me ... sometimes I succeed, most of the time I failed ... but life goes on ... and so should we ...

Well, today is the 9th January 2008 - tomorrow is Awal Muharram - Muslim's New Year ... A brand new year which we were supposed to receive a new book - a clean slate, a fresh start ... Hopefully this year would be better than last year ... hopefully, the world would be a better place than last year ... and hopes would live on ...and on.

On the eve of this new year, my sweet Che Tam passed on ... She's my hamster, one of the cutest and the most amicable :) ... I supposed she's in a better place now where she's no longer in pain and never ever runs out of 'pegaga' ( she simply loves this particular herb )... I will miss you dearly Che Tam but I know that you are happier now in your new paradise :) Take good care Che Tam and remember that you will always have a special place in my heart ... Borrowing from Jordin Sparks' Tattoo - "You're just like a tattoo, I will always have you".

My wish goes to all Muslims and Non-Muslims alike, Happy New Year and may this year brings you happiness, health and prosperity ... May the world be a better place for everyone :)

Hugs to my family and friends.
