Some days are just not worth it.

I haven't been able to do much writing recently. I don't remember the last time I wrote anything in my personal journal and though I've finished watching Soul Eater and the Naruto movie, I've barely begun to write the reviews for them. I was anticipating that my April was when I was going to lose a bit of time due to the many events that are ( Read more... )

Australia def. Saudi Arabia, 4-2, good times. I usually love to pick the side which is most likely to win and when Saudi kicked off the first goal, I was fairly ready to put my support on them. But deep down, I know the reality is that I’ll always go for Australia. I mean, just like in tennis where normally I’m a fan of Federer and don’t really ( Read more... )

After quite a bit of to-and-fro-ing I've finally come up with a list of favourite photos from 2011. This was definitely a challenge to put together. Firstly my latest count tells me I've taken somewhere along the vicinity of 30,000 photos during the year so as you can appreciate that's a lot of photos to go through. After the first pass, I've ( Read more... )

Nothing gets me overexcited quite like tennis does. Over the years I’ve sort of thought that I was slowly losing interest in the game owing to how I don’t often sit through entire matches anymore during the tennis seasons ( Read more... )

Spent Wednesday night going on a night shoot down in Cape Schanck; the southern-most tip of the Mornington Peninsula. We’ve been meaning to take photos of a clear starry sky for quite some time now but as it’s something dependant on the weather (and for which Melbourne doesn’t have the best track record in terms of predictability), it’s been ( Read more... )

Work is getting crazy. It’s still at a point where I can go home and not have to think about it but I think I’m going to have to use my organisational skills more effectively or else this will very quickly overrun me ( Read more... )

I’m doing my final year wrap up for the first time in private mode (EDIT: public as I no longer care). Maybe one day I’ll bring it back to public view like most of my journal is but I’m doing this right now more for damage control. Consequently I would appreciate that if you wish to speak to me about this, please do it here or just directly to me ( Read more... )

Kyu’s birthday Frisbee party was yesterday. As has been customary in almost everything we’ve done all year, this started late. There was also some intermittent cloud cover and even threats of rain; again another seemingly frequent occurrence amongst our events of late. But in between cloud covers, the sun peeked through enough for us to have had a ( Read more... )

Three shoots in one weekend. Well, this would be the 4th day of shooting come to think of it (am currently writing this from the shoot location), but it's a Monday evening so it doesn't exactly fit into the statement of a weekend. So that's 4 shoots in as many days. Some months I might see only 1 shoot in all of their 30 days. All this shooting can ( Read more... )
