Mish mash,

Snippets.

 

Finished three books since I started work! Feel like buying more books but seems like a waste of money since I only read them max three times. Haha. Cause every time I pick up the book, I remember the whole plot, I put it back.

Ai xin zao can from mother to bring to work. Must have tons of butter then I happy :)

 

Today is the most happening work day. An old lady came in for her appointment. Just as she was taking her weight, she took off her shoes and everyone was horrified cause there was tons of blood. Like super lot. Apparently her feet has been bleeding for almost an hour? And the blood was flowing non-stop. Scary. I took her shoes to clean the blood away but too much blood man. Weirdly enough, it didn’t seem revolting to me. I think as long as its not faeces, I can handle it.

One more month till I end work.

Then its holidays!!!!

My whole life is a lie,

So all the mouth-watering photos I’ve been salivating after on cookbooks and recipes online are probably FAKE!??

We are all fooled. No wonder McDonalds burgers always look different. Heh. Btw I still haven’t got down to buying my seaweed shaker fries! Got to get them before they stop serving.

And the chicken rice you get at the coffeeshop always looks different from the ones on the photos. Okay, maybe those are real cause I’ve seen them taking photos of it. Pffft. Change of topic, I’m pretty hungry now. Time check: 10.55pm. Ugh, why do I always have to be hungry at such timing. To be fair, I didn’t had much of a dinner. Just a cup of hot tea and 1.5 churros-thingy-from-breadtalk.

But ever since I’ve started working at the cancer clinic, I am more conscious of my health and related news articles. Lol. Good start I guess. Since I can’t for the sake of my fatty tissues, go for an exercise.

Oh read this too! The third point is too disturbing. But the last point brings joy to my life.

Shots,

Hi. Been playing around with the new cammie and trying to figure out how to use it. Lol. Mostly I just use the Auto function and the scene modes. And I have also found the cons of the camera. I can live with it I suppose. It’s pretty slow when I want to view my pictures and I have to turn the thing if I want to change scenes.

I like how my hair colour is turning brown.

   

I swear Sony compact cameras are the most boring. They don’t have pretty art filters. Only the normal sepia, black and white.

I tried testing out the night shot last night of the city area. It was dark and being pretty blind, I didn’t even know what I was taking. But snap, and this picture turns up. The bad thing with a very good zoom is that my hands will shake when I attempt to take a faraway shot. So the image will also shake. Lol.

And I tested the zoom today. This is how it looks like from the normal view and distance.

Fyeah this is what I get when I super zoom it. Walau. I think I can zoom into people’s house already. hahahahah. I excitedly show my sister and she calmly said, ‘When are you going to take photos that is 300m away?’ Errrr I’ll take it when I see it.

Sony HX9V,

Went to the IT fair yesterday with Tingting after work. Wth. We sound like some office lady already. Oh wait, we are. Note the sarcastic tone tyvm.

Been wanting to get a new camera for quite some time but didn’t make any impulsive buys cause no money back then. No money now too. Lol. Walked around checking out the camera with my budget of $500 and taking brochures to bring home to shortlist them. So I shortlisted two Olympus cameras both at $599. Ikr, $100 more than my budgeted price. But decided since I’m already spending, so if its really good than $100 more would be okay. I headed down to Courts to check it out myself but the salesman introduced the Sony one.

Basically I told him I need something idiot-proof, takes sharp and clear images, wide angle, great night mode and somewhere along the lines of Canon S90. He compared all the cameras I was eyeing on then I also silently agreed that the Sony one is good. Actually I saw this camera quite some time ago and was amazed by the zoom. Damn zai one. The only thing holding me back was the brand. Another Sony camera, seriously? Guess what, I really bought it –.-

The salesman also funny. Totally guarantee that I will love this camera. Say if I don’t like, within 7 days I can go back and look for him to exchange another camera. He even told me to go ahead with the Olympus one, but I can still come back for the Sony. But if I decided to buy the Sony and I love it, I have to come back and thank him. hahahaha.

So yeah. All the free gifts were the same except that I don’t have extra battery and the tripod. Anyway, I can’t use the extra battery cause its charged together with the camera. Test shots at home and mum and sis were amazed at it. This camera is good for the zoom and we didn’t know the lens will protrude out so much we got a shock. Lol.

 

Kay, fingers crossed that I won’t regret and this will last me for the next 5 years. Lol. Is can one. So now I’m abstaining from shopping till HK. That’s about a month plus more to go!! #fast Plus hospital food sucks, so shall survive on bread for breakfast and lunch then. Great way to diet and curb my appetite too.

Last dance with Valentino,

Been catching up with my reading these days on the journey to and from work. It makes travelling time pass by quickly. I found this book at home, interestingly Sis bought it. She only reads motivational stuff as far as I’m concern so I was surprised she bought this book.

I couldn’t put it down at all cause it was so attention grabbing that I had to keep reading on non-stop. But the ending was too painful for me. I think I almost cried. It’s based on the life of this English girl and her lover – Rudolph Valentino a 1920s actor. To my surprise, he actually exists when I googled him cause at the end of the book, there were a few news articles on him. And he was considered a really hot star in those days. Too bad he died young due to sickness which ended his career.

I actually got the spooks while I googled his photos. There’s even a photo of him in his coffin but its too eerie. 

The story is fictitious but it almost seemed real to read about the relationship with him and Lola.

I guessed the main reason why I loved it was also because the story was set in America in the 1920s. Ever since I watched Vampire Diaries on the part where Stefan met Klaus and Rebekah for the first time at a club/bar/pub, I have been intrigued by that era. Their fashion, how they lived, their lifestyles, movies, music etc. Like everything! I think the girls were glamorously simple yet elegant. If they were pretty, they were really pretty. Cause there was no photoshop then.

 

Sighhh how nice would it be if I was born in that era. In those times, movies were silent. Silent. Yet people could watch them like how we watch movies in 3D now. So fascinating. I tried watching a few of the Rudolph Valentino’s movies on Youtube, beautiful as it is, it was hard to understand the story.

Okay I should stop obsessing over them. 4th day at work and I’m finally slightly busier. Boss is going overseas tomorrow till Monday, so if I have nothing to do, means I really have nothing to do. So I’m taking my own sweet time sending out stuff. haha. Anyway, there were already bimbotic moments. I tried to make an appointment for the large intestine scan, but I had the wrong number. I called the cardiac (heart) clinic. Lol. Think I offended the receptionist for making her book and then called back to cancel cause wrong clinic, wrong doctor.
