went and collected my photos today.
the roll which I loaded into my Holga 135 BC.
GOT NO OUTCOME!!
damn it. now I'm worried.
it's my loading problem? or the camera's problem?
argh! i will load another roll of Agfa Pro Pack into my holga and i will see.
ish.
but there're still some of the photos from my fisheye which surprised me.
hehehehe.
one of it-

very obviously this was taken in Asia Jaya LRT station. =.=
this photo isn't nice enough?
I got another photo to amaze you. but not now. XD

okay. if you ask me about my holga.
I'm still very de sad about it. ish. T.T
OH PLS TELL ME WHY.
okay, as what JS told me, this is lomography.
trial and error. =.=

okay. dad came home as the champion for his club's golf tournament.
he brought back a Panasonic Lumix FS3 + Tripod + 2G Panasonic SD Card + Leather Case for the cam + Camera Strap.
and one trophy and two bracelets [neh those for sports one.]
so this was the conversation -

Jhen : Pa~ you so geng neh! champion! can I have the tripod a? I can use with my holga.
Mr. Seah : take lah take lah.
Jhen : then papa, I help you explore about the camera lah!*
Mr. Seah : nah, take the camera lah!
Jhen : huh? you mean you're giving it to me ar?
Mr. Seah : yala.
Jhen : don't want lah. i shy shy neh. [i really said so] you use it la.
Mr. Seah : I got one Nikon edi mah. since you don't have a digicam, bring that around with you lah. but you buy your own memory card. I want that 2G.
Jhen : okay! no problem! HEHEHEHEHEHE....

*I always help 'exploring' all the gadgets at my home and I will teach my parents how to use it.

at night...
Mr. Seah : eh. the camera is given to you, jaga baik baik a.
Jhen : of course!
Mr. Seah : I brought that back with all my tears and sweats one ler.
Jhen : ok promise! =)


omg. now I forgot about the holga's thingy edi.
I HAVE A NEW CAMERA NOW!
even though it's not the perfect camera in my mind.
but I'm still happy. =)
thanks papa! muacks muacks.

Jhen the Volunteer.

haha. now I'm officially the volunteer of World Vision's One Life Revolution! =)
Jo-Ann and I have been helping them since yesterday, till this sunday. [saturday we're off!]
yesterday was really quite hectic [but not for me, I was on duty in the merchandise booth] as YB Teresa Kok came for the opening ceremony.
and Elaine Dally was the host!
wow. But I didn't manage to take any photo because, I was having my lunch during the opening ceremony. hahaha.

So today, I was assigned to "jaga" merchandise booth too.
hahaha. suddenly they asked me to help out in the Impact Centre of the exhibit, which I was supposed to "encourage" the visitors to fill in the feedback form.
but guess what, only 1 out of 10 filled that in. >.<
Then, I went back to the merchandise booth continue selling these nice t-shirts, flip-flops and car sticker.
Jo-Ann was assigned to help out in the check-out point, which we call the collect-mp3-job.
I know she wasn't having fun inside. LOL.
I know.

As what I told Jo-Ann, things which do not involve money, are always simple.
The job is quite relaxing actually.
even though we don't get paid, but we still enjoy working with World Vision.
I feel so happy when people told me that they enjoy the exhibit very much.

Many people came and experience the lives of AIDS affected children, how about you?
YOU HAVE ONE LIFE, DO SOMETHING.
come visit us for the exhibit! till this Sunday (13th July 2008) from 10am to 7pm.
for Friday and Saturday, extended till 10pm.
p/s- I have walked through 2 out of 3 stories of this exhibit. What I can tell you is it leaves me really great impact! Experience it yourself! =)

Monday, July 7, 2008

an update.

hahaha. just like what Swee Loo and Alice have done in their blog,[update for the sake of updating]
I'm going to do something similar too.
LOL. cause I can't think of any topics yet, sigh.
I have several lomographics to show, but maybe in next entry?

ohya. went for the Kuala Lumpur World Marching Band Competition (KLWMBC) 2008 Volunteer Programme Interview.
my best friends - ah muk and sim went with me.
there were many notts there too. including - desmond chua. haha. the only chinese guy that day. LOL. and guess what, MOLLY was there too!
well. we applied for the Liason Officer job.
I think we can get that job since we are that ONLY FEW chinese there.
pathetic right?

the job sounds really fun.
but stressful too. haha.

well well. I'm going to work for World Vision for One Life Revolution on this tuesday!
can't wait for that!

will update about KLWMBC and One Life Revolution soon.
I mean really soon. =)

Belle Gunness.


Belle Gunness with 3 of her children 4 years before she murdered them.


anyone knows who is Belle Gunness?
I read about this notorious lady from the latest issue of Discovery Channel Magazine [hey. this mag is much more interesting than CLEO and Seventeen. LOL.]
She is a serial killer at the turn of the 20th century.
One thing I must mention about is that she's 5'8" ft tall and over 200 lb, which is around 91kg.
We comment this as physically strong, not fat. okay? haha.

It's believed that she has killed over 49 people including all 4 of her own children.
so the other 45 people includes her husband, and her suitors after her husband is dead.
okay. here's another question. guys. do you find a woman who is 5'8" ft tall and 91kg attractive?
why so many guys went after Belle Gunness?
this is another mystery for me. LOL.
but, hard evidence supports only a lower number, around 25 - 35.
but that's scary enough isn't it?
a woman killed 25 to 35 man.
OMG!

okay. you might be asking now. what's her motive of killing so many people?
erm. they lied to her?
they betrayed her?
or Belle Gunness loved them so much till she helped them to get to heaven even faster?
LOL. no.
Her apparent motive was to collect life insurance benefit. yes.
it was money. that's why we said, money is the evil root.

her first victim is her husband. sigh.
her husband died on 1900, on the day that two life insurance policies on him overlapped.
what a coincidence eh?
The family doctor claimed that her husband, Mr. Sorenson's death caused by heart failure.
but the first doctor who examined him thought it was caused from strychnine poisoning.
they had a little bit of argument, but autopsy wasn't considered at that time. because they found the death to be unsuspicious.
Then, Belle Gunness applied for the insurance money on the day after her husband's funeral.
hehe.

Then I think she got addicted into applying for insurance money [duh!]
so she killed almost all of her suitors, whom she lured to marriage.
Till today, some of her suitors' bodies are not found yet.
You're now thinking, this woman is very scary right?

that's not the whole "legend" about her yet.
A body buried next to her husband was believed to be Belle Gunness. actually.
But last year, a team of forensic students exhumed the headless body from the graveyard [they are brave, don't you agree with that?]
One modern researcher believes that the remains of the headless body was a victim of Belle too.
Well, they are still conducting DNA tests [as it's like SO MANY years ago.]
now another mystery, so did Belle Gunness fake her death?
The answers are going to take some time. [again, as it's like SO MANY years ago]
They actually found an envelope, which they believe Gunness licked the flaps more than a century ago.
But they couldn't pull out any DNA from it.
so they now planning to exhume Gunness's sister.
If their DNA isn't a match, they will exhume another body, a woman who died in the California prison in 1931.
There were several witnesses at that about the woman convicted was Gunness, according to Discovery Channel Magazine, the most prolific female serial killer in the history.

wow. I can't wait for the answer.
erm. I think I should be a forensic scientist/chemist instead of an engineer engineering student.
LOL. I have not graduated yet. sigh. 4 more years to go.

anyway. Just to share about this woman with you.
not to scare you ok? =)
anyway, a movie about Gunness is in development.
I'm really interested to watch it! hehehe.


Commercial break.
After reading this, do you think life's precious? haha.
One Life Revolution.
You have one life, do something..

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

finally.
my Holga 135 BC reached my house safely today morning.
=)
People keep asking me why bought a holga 135 instead of the 120 which uses medium film.
ish. the $$ to buy the 120 film and process them will be killing me. im still a student. a poor one. hahaha. cannot afford that.
and people keep asking me why i invested so much in lomography.
when you have the interest and passion on something, it doesn't matter.
remember, you have only one life, do what you think it's right? =)

I brought my holga out this afternoon.

can't help keep pressing the shutter.
ish. but it's kinda hard to focus.
need to practice still.
anyway, I wont know till i send my films for scanning. haha.
so now. I have two babies. my Holga 135 BC and Fisheye No. 2.

love both of them so muchie.

and i love this too -

my lucky zai. XD

next target?
Lomo X-Pro slide film.
and Agfa CT Precisa slide film.
i wan themmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
but they cost rm16 per roll.
really need to think about it eh.

anyway, come to One Life Revolution exhibit with your friends and family! walk in the shoes of these affected children! =)
