Happy birthday to myself.

Went to the Marina Bay Floating Platform yesterday for the Singapore Fireworks Celebration with Ling yesterday. Managed to secure a pair of ticket last week to go with her. :D It was my first time to Marina Bay Floating Platform so I got pretty excited about heading there. The crowd was already present even at City Hall MRT station from like 6pm onwards.

The weather wasn’t cooperating with the event. Drizzled all the way till like 10 minutes before the fireworks started. It was the Korean’s fireworks display, French’s fireworks display was on on Friday but unable to go due to company’s D&D. It was my first time having a seat to able to enjoy the fireworks close-up peacefully without having to squeeze with people at the Esplanade/Fullteron area. The fireworks are wonderful, we enjoyed it alot. The drizzle turned into heavier rain few minutes before the fireworks ended.

Another first time. My first time doing fireworks photography. It’s not easy to do fireworks photography with the right settings to get the full-bloom of fireworks with the right exposure. It’s a great lesson for me yesterday.Level up in my photography skills. Haha! Here are some presentable shots to share:

Pardon for the not so nice photos. Already tried my best ! :P

Been sourcing for a new wallet as of late. But haven’t found a nice one within my current budget. The LV on my wanted list would not be fulfilled that soon I guess. Today someone introduced me to Burberry Black Label series wallet. I’m like, “WOW!”

It has my favourite color combination, black and red. And it has rough texture. Price wise it’s reasonable (S$295). The only thing is have to import it from Japan.

Pictures here:

Got avid reader complaining I’m not updating my blog. So here I am.

Had a fun 3d2n cruise over the last weekend. The bad things were, no sunrise/sunset and no stars. These are the things that I was looking most forward to other than the massive amount of buffet. (LOL) Many other factors that made the cruise trip fun, or not fun. Subjected to the person’s views of whom were there. *wink wink*

The person whom brought the camera onboard happens to be the avid reader stated in the first sentence of this entry have not pass me any photos. So this entry about the cruise is a NPNT (No Picture No Talk) entry. LOL

Will be back with photos once I got hold of them.

I’ve always been using this line, “talk is cheap.” The reason being, most of the people (including me) usually have lots of theories to explain how to go about execute something. But after all the words said and reasoning done, things are seldom being done as the way being said, or worse, not doing it at all. This is also known as NATO (No Action Talk Only)

However, my main point today isn’t about “talk is cheap”. On the contrary, I feel there is a need for talking in this case.

Some things just cannot be brought across clearly by IM/mobile text/blog entries. All these medium are just way to dump your thoughts without the ability to bring the message across. Dumping wall of text deals 999 damage to the other party and will not be absorbed effectively.Yes, message seen; no, cannot understand.

I really feel through verbal conversation, messages can be brought across more clearly. You can put your feelings into spoken words unlike in IM where you can only use emoticons/caps lock/exclamation mark to represent different feelings. It is more sincere in a way to do it verbally, like in cases of making an apology. How sincere a person can be if the apology is made through mobile text?

Hope this entry make some sense. I suck at words, I think I can explain all these theories verbally better. LOL :P
