真实

你说的话在我心中生了根
爱得很深所以心很疼
记忆在我的心中翻滚
是不是每一个人
都像我一样笨
只怕再问对彼此都太残忍
我能感觉另外一个人
我等等笑容换成泪痕
爱在崩溃的时候比较真
太多疑问知道答案又如何
原来容忍不需要天份
只要爱错一个人
心痛比快乐更真实
爱为何这样的讽刺
我忘了这是第几次
一见你就无法坚持
孤独比拥抱更真实
爱让人失去了理智
会不会是我太自私
拒绝更寂寞的日子
放不开也看不见未来
难道这种不完美
才是爱情真实的样子

Last post of the Month

This is it, the last post for the month of October.
Reason 1- Flying off to Wallaby, Aust, tomorrow, i will not be back till the 1st of Nov.
Reason 2- See reason no.1

I will be bringing the MG- 1 with me, although not going to have much chance to take any picture outfield, i hope to have some pictures during the R&R or at the airport.

Out there in the wilderness, with no phone reception or anything else to disturb you, just look up into the night skies and see the stars shining brightly from light years away.
Makes you thinks, how small and insignificant you really are, but still, one try his best to do his best.

After EX WALLABY, it's ATEC stage 1. Followed by stage 2 around Feb, after that ORD in June.
2 years of my life wearing green.

'Poof', i gonna disappear. Don't worry, i will be back, this world will be a boring place without me.

Blank


This is what you will see when you develop a blank roll of film.
A blank strip of negatives.

Yashica MG-1

Got a Yashica MG-1 from a fellow CSer yesterday. Took it out for some testing this afternoon and had just sent
it to the photo lab. Will be collecting the prints tml and hope to post it asap. haha. Wonder how will the pictures turn out.
Never really shoot film before, guess it's sort of like life itself, not knowing how things will turn out. How the decision that
you made now will affect the end product. I like how i can sling the camera from my shoulder the whole afternoon without feeling any strain. My Olympus DSLR might be a lightweight in the DSLR world, but this is just different. And i like how i can take pictures without getting any weird looks from people as i would if i'm using a DSLR. Lol
Next step, developing my own film. Black and White. hahaha.
Will be bringing this baby to Wallaby with me, not bringing any digital gear. Bearing in mind that i'm there for training and not sightseeing.Not having any previous experience with non-digital camera and film. This is what people call baptism by fire, i guess.




This might not be a Leica( no offence to the non-Leica rangefinder lover out there),
but now i do know what Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa feel doing what they do best.
Focusing by aligning the image. Using the film advance lever(below).
Using the camera, i felt like being in a long gone era.
I could just visualise myself walking down foreign streets, geeting lost and taking photos of people and places i had never seen before.

After saying so much, just just hope the pictures taken this afternoon would not turn out to be all over expose or something.
