Happy Lunar New Year Everbody!!!

Yo everyone, just a couple hours to Chinese New Year. Welcome the year of the pig!!! I would like to wih everyone

"Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!!!!!!"


I do find horoscope fascinating and strange at the same time. People tend to believe them when their horoscope are telling them positive things. When the information revealed some negative parts, people just say "Take it with a pinch of salt!!"

Call me inquisitive or curious. I do noticed Chinese zodiac and Western astrology reports different information from each other. SO...which one should I believe??? Anyway I am quite lucky as I am born in the year of the horse(Chinese Zodiac) and I am a Sagitarius (Western astrology). Pretty simple as both of them are related to the horse. Hahahaha!!!!

Here is a picture that I designed using photoshop for one of my school projects.




Anyway no matter what animal horoscope we belong to....the bottom line is we are pretty much related to primates. Chimps are our nearest cousin. In fact chimps are 98% human. According to the discovery channel. There was a chimp that walks upright like a human and is 99% human. This discovery did raise a eyebrow or two. So dun monkey around!!!

My SLR

The camera I am using is none other than the famous 400D. Hehehehe!! I was quite tempted by the Nikon though, coz Nikon D80 got a very nice body and photos taken are just as comparable as the 400D. (BUT) Price prevails and I settle for the 400D. Come to think of it I was quite happy i chose the canon as it has quite a few functions and values$$ that D80 is lacking.

Anyway, I am not going to drawn into the debate of which brand of camera is the best. This only makes things more complicated and confusing, as both brands of cameras are of high quality. Alright already, lets get started!!!!!

It has been 3 weeks since I bought my first SLR camera. So far, I have taken some good pictures and some not so good pictures. :p Well, I started off taking pictures in my home which I find a bit boring. Therefore, I started venturing forward and ended up in the Singapore Science Centre!!!

Here some pics of the Science Centre



These are some of the better photos taken with the 400D. In my opinon I think the results are great!!! You know, I have been receiving some stick over the purchase of this new toy. Some people think I am crazy while others just think I wasted some cold hard cash. The total cost is approximately $2k. Its not cheap. I would be lying if I said " I don't really care wat others think". The truth is whoever that said this sentence is really quite conscious of what others thought about him/her. Deep down inside and sub consciously they really mind what people thought about them. Well, I am no exception. But fighters are always stubborn. The more others say no don't do this, you are not cut out for that, the more I want to try it. Whahahahaha!!!
