Phobias from A-E

Earth Hour Contest Winner

I guess it was just too last minute for the Earth Hour contest and not much in fact only two photos were submitted.  Probably the next time round, I would have a longer period for the photo shoooting competition to encourage more people to take part in it.  Ok, since I have got two tealight candle holder and I'm going to give them to......


Gary

Congratulations to the both of them!!!

Infrared Effect

It was a chain reaction on how I got to learn the Infrared Effect.  As usual a visit to Emila's Illustrated Blog on a daily basis or should I say seconds, just to get FC (first comment).  From there it directed me to Aki's Kotakitam blog with a very simple tutorial on how to create Infrared Effect.  And I tried and these are the few images with Infratred Effect.
What do you think? Nice?

This was taken on my first trip to Bangkok to visit my brother and having lunch under this big tree back in October 2006.
And the rest of below image are taken by my good friend and a sister to me, Ashley Kwong.  When she was studying New York and took these images during spring time.  I wish Malaysia have four seasons too....LOL




Earth Hour

So happy that my parents are taking part in it too, it was definitely a surprise when I reached him around 8:32pm all the lights were off.  But sadly not all my neighbors are taking part, I'm sure it would be nice if they too do the same.
Only two reasons, either they don't know or they are ignorant that is all I can conclude.  Anyway "Happy Earth Hour!!!"

Earth Hour Contest


It is earth hour day and I wish to take this opportunity to encourage people switch off their lights for just only one hour between 8:30pm to 9:30pm tonight with a small contest during that hour.
It is very simple, just snap any photos in the dark and submit as many photos to me by 12am 29th March 2008 my blog time at ken.tapestry@gmail.com and I will judge and anounce the winner the following day.
The prizes is a 10.5cm x 8.5cm hand painted tealight holder, of course it comes with scented candles too.... Have fun during that Earth Hour and hopefully people will participate.
p/s by submitting the photos to me, it gives me the rights to published them in my blog as reference and no other use. 

Professionalism

I was so surprise to receiced this letter weeks after my tele-conversation with the people from college.  But I guess it is too late for everything that they got me into like I mention on my earlier post on Two Face and Really Bad News.
First highlighted are just contradicting on what they are doing, "prepare students for a successfull career and [responsible leadership]".  How can they teach [responsible leadership] when they themselves are not?  I just wonder?
Knowing that, I only teach their college and inform me just a few days before the semester start, which they can inform me much much earlier like in January so I can get started in searching for job.  With the market so bad nowadays getting a job is not that easy.
Second highlight, when they needed lecturer urgently even a diploma holder like me are OK but when they don't need you, I'm not qualified.  How nice to hear that?
Last highlight, just to move way for others, simple as that. 
I've learned my lesson and hope that all of you all too, be more aware just like what they say "阿婆走得快,一定有古怪" (when a granny run fast, definitely something is wrong)  Anyway that is histrory in my life and a mark of a new beginning, a new chapter to be woven on my life's tapestry.

Phobia (A-E)

I guess everyone should know what phobia means right?

Single Ladies or ......?

I wonder why this week I've been posting a lot of videos and somehow i just want to share with all you some interesting videos and music.
Heard of Single Ladies by Beyonce? Some may say yes and some may say no, but it is alright as I'm going to post her video clip here with another interesting video by some young boys dancing to Single Ladies by Beyonce, which I think most of the ladies out there can't shake as good as these boys.  Have fun!!!




K-Pop Wave

Recent past few years, Korean dramas, movies and music has been making wave in asia countries.  and I've created a K-Pop monster!!! I just introduce my friend to this Korean group call Big Bang and ever since then he is all into Korean music like JYP, Wonder Girls, Big Bang and many many which I don't even know.  Worst of all he can remember the lyrics and dance steps too.  That is too much for me!!!

In my much much earlier post on Big Bang, comes the Wonder Girls which has created wave in Thailand and had a concert there recently too.  I'm going to leave you with Wonder Girls - Nobody music video and Big Bang - Number 1 music video.  Enjoy ;)

Coca-Cola Open Happiness

Coca-cola, never fail to amaze me with their cretive directions in all their television commercials.  I have mace across numerous Coca-cola television commercials and I actually love them all.  I did post one earlier on the Olympic 2009 Coca-cola commercial in Collectibles: Coca-cola.  A lot of CG has been use in most of Coca-cola's commercial but somehow it looks great!
I wonder when will Malaysian come up with something this good and I am not having doubt that Malaysian can't do it.  We have so many talented people here in Malaysia.

It Is Here!!!

I was tuesday evening 17th March 2009 when I reached home and saw a parcel on my table.  The only thing I could think of is Diya's handmade cards.  But when I opened it, to my surprise there are more to it then just greeting cards but keychains as well.
Love all of them and seriously, I don't feel like using them as all the hard work that has been put into making the card, but if I don't it, it is going to lay there and collect dust.  How?!?!?!  Most likely I'm going to use it because I have too many things that I keep and it is about time to use it.  If not I think I don't have a place to sleep.
Thank you Diya and it is really beautiful.  For those of you who would like some personal touch on your greeting cards please do drop by diYadEaRY's.... ♥ you can find beautiful hand made cards there.

I'm Sorry

Is the word "I'm Sorry" overated?
To some people, "I'm Sorry" is really hard to say and to some, "I'm Sorry" is just another word with no substance to it.  When the word is said do you really mean it?  But I guess that is not just the point.  In order to say "I'm Sorry" please do find out what is the reason that you are being sorry for.
One can say "I'm Sorry" a million times, but yet did not know what he/she did wrong.  Then what is the purpose for saying "I'm Sorry", that just prove that he/she does not mean it from the heart.  Even after finding out the truth for being sorry would you let history repeats by itself?  Then I would say the second sorry doesn't mean anything at all.
So, think twice before you get yourself into the same trouble again and again and again.  "Sorry" does not work when you say it too many times.
