Theme 4: Urban Living

Singapore, a concrete jungle. Hop on over to see pictures of my home on the Samsung Cameras Facebook page.
Theme 3: Self-Portraits
I’m not a fan of taking self-portraits. Yes, I’m a cliche — photographer, not really like to have her photos taken. I struggled with this theme but it gave me a good run for the money! Go check it out.

Clare, no?
Interestingly enough, on the theme of kids, my younger sis found an old picture of me.

Theme 2: Kids

This week’s theme is out! Hop on over to the Samsung Facebook page now!
Samsung Facebook Page
I’ve been invited as Guest Photographer for the Samsung Facebook Page. I will be posting tips and photos taken with the NX100 weekly. This first week’s theme is on Pets Photography.

Hop on over to read about how this picture of Jaws, and more, came about!
The Eagles
Watched The Eagles last night. We thought we had good seats, but it turned out that I had a thick bunch of cables blocking me. On top of that, people from the gallery decided to come down and stand behind us, drunk and blocking all the air-conditioning. However, it was a really good concert, all three hours of it. I still don’t quite understand the idea of going to watch people sing, but that’s just me. :)

Permanently Sour After 35
Was watching an episode of ’30 Rock’ this week, and came across this brilliant conversation between Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy. Tina Fey is such an awesome writer.
Liz Lemon:
You know what, this whole thing is unfair. You’re juggling two beautiful women while I have to pay to have kickballs whipped at me. This is gender inequity out the yang.Jack Donaghy:
This has nothing to do with the slight difference in our genders.Liz Lemon:
Yes, it does. The older you get, the more distinguished you are. Meanwhile, I’m reading a book called “Hide Your Arms, Hide Your Anger: Dating Over 35.”Jack Donaghy:
Lemon, I am successful romantically because I am confident, open and positive. You are negative, pessimistic and in danger of becoming permanently sour.
I Love You Mummy!

After lunch one day, she wanted to cross Alkaff Bridge and was really pleased that we did, as evident on her cheeky face.
I love it whenever I drop Clare off at school, she’d yell out, “I LOVE YOU MUMMY!” as she walks down the corridor to her classroom. Always makes me feel lucky and so loved.
Reset
Woke up this morning feeling like I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Nothing seemed to be going right. Wrong contact lens solution. None of the new hairclips I bought for Clare didn’t seem to fulfil its purpose. Forgot to set the alarm but thankfully, I woke up on time. Feeling like I’m on the brink of fever and now have the bitter acidic taste of backdrip in my throat. Was annoyed that Clare was taking a long time with breakfast and as a result I forgot to give her her morning glass of milk.
On the way to school, with half a sandwich in hand, she looked at me with big doleful eyes and said, “I don’t want to go to school today, mum, because I will miss you.”
Totally made my heart melt and made me realise that I should stop focussing on the negative and appreciate the present. Like the time I had with her in the car before dropping her off at school. :) Because I know I will miss her too.
