PhotoHunt 75 : Plastic

Posted by danielctw On September - 14 - 2007

Photo Hunter

I am way early today!! Well, caused I might be away on weekends and not busy tonight. So here’s my early post..

Plastic eh… hmm.. I was kinda busy these few days. That sometimes it’s bugging me during the weekends. I was having a hard time trying to figure out my picture for plastic. Weird ideas I had was taking some snapshots of tranvestites in Thailand, but then… doesn’t sound really err.. proper.

So here’s my theme.

Kopi O in Plastic

Haha!! Was actually driving on the way to my next holiday destination. Stopped on the road halfway and had a takeaway of Ipoh white coffee(yes, it’s white beans but in the end turn out black) and Karipap(fried thingy). Plastics are good, easy to carry. At least I don’t need to sit in the crowded place.

Advise : Please do not litter after finished eating or drinking with plastics. Throw it into the bin or recycle.

Perth III – Park

Posted by danielctw On September - 13 - 2007

Yes, it’s the continuation of the

Perth experience. For those that miss the previous posts, here are the links below.

Perth Part I – Clouds
Perth Part II – Journey

It’s time to relish back the Perth, Australia experience. Yes… for those that have been waiting. First I’ll talk about my experience. It’s indeed good to get to meet a few people who are living in Perth and somehow also drop by Perth to get to meet those familiar faces.

Yes… it’s a very interesting thing. Years ago, I highly unlikely will find strangers or even bother to go out to meet strangers. Don’t really know what changes me. Maybe because of Kenny Sia and his adventures, thus gave me a revelation to go traveling and just meet friendly people.

Sheena And Me

Yes… amazing. I was like shocked to see Sheena whom I knew since my college years here in Perth. What do you know, she’s here for her company trip and of all places, met in Perth. Haha!! While she’s in KL, I didn’t even go and find her. I think it’s like err.. 4-5 years I didn’t see her. Too bad didn’t have much time to talk as the bus has already arrived and I need to board the tour bus. Maybe I’ll catch up with her later when I am back to KL, which I am now seriously procrastinating due to laziness.

Danel and Phoebe

Ok, I don’t have a proper shot, so this photo was sent by my little sister in Perth. Yes.. for those that don’t know, I am so happy to meet my ‘mei mei’ Phoebe or her online nick ‘Puresky’ in Perth. Thanks for bringing me around Perth, and walking all the way from Kingspark to Murray Street. Haha.. one thing though, she says I am too skinny O_o. Guessed I need to put on weight. Better still why not I stay in Perth, and everyday eat Fish and Chips, sure confirm gonna put on weight. Dang…. weight training coming right up. Suddenly I miss my Perth life, get big helpings of meat and fish and chips. HAHAHA!!

Daniel and Ryu and Gift
from left : Gif, infamous Daniel, Ryu

Haha!!! This post. How did I meet them. Yes… they are Shouters from ShoutOut created by Lasker and Elise. Ok.. at least one of them is a shouter and another a potential shouter. Shouters are usually bloggers. Yes, this is the picture which was taken at NorthBridge, dangerous place during the night. Well, places full of bars, and sex shops. Haha!! Yes, for those who have been reading my previous post, Ryu especially since she’s been waiting and afraid I might post her very very cute and funny photo. So then this is a normal post. Yes, and anyone wanna know them, please pay me in advance into my Paypal. =P. *takes this opportunity to ask Ryu for blackmail! :P *

Yes, so now you have it. What a way a blogger like me moving about and having fun with life. Life wouldn’t be so boring if sometimes go out and explore. Well, I think I said enough. What about the sceneries of Perth, Australia. MORE!! MORE!! MORE!! Ok ok … the theme for now is The Park & the Natives. Here are the other shots.

KingsPark

This is Kingspark for those that don’t really know. I was lucky the sun shone at the right time, giving me a perfect shot of people relaxing at the sunlight. Yes.. it’s the direct opposite from the ones in KL. In Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, while having a picnic or lazing around, we always avoid the sun as it’s hot and humid, but here… the sun is like a blessing. Since the weather is cool and breezy, having a tad bit of sunlight really feels err.. nice.

The Sun At Kingspark

Trying to get a lens flare shot but the picture came out too overexposed. Yes… make sure you have a UV protector on your lens or it’ll damage your autofocus. Never ever aim your lens directly at the sun or you’ll face having your lens spoilt. Just testing stuffs, so I know that photo’s not nice. Not enough vivid the color. I think photo geeks will know what I meant. So if you’re picking up photography, there’s always a stepping stone to start learning.

Kingspark Night

The friends and Shouter that I met said that I shouldn’t miss the night scene at Kings Park. Hmm… ya.. I am lazy so I will always write Kingspark :D Well, the lightings at night makes the road so mysterious. I just have to had a shot of it.

So what’s next? Let’s go check the natives of Australia. I meant wild animals. Not aborigines. =.=”

Koala

Native Number 1, the Koala Bears. Yes from this point onwards, most of the shots are taken from Cavernshem Wildlife Park. So see the cute cute Koala Bear. Yes, they are cute and timid. Always clung to the tree barks. But one thing though, they are still wild animals. Just look at the claws this animal have. One grab at your arm, have fun bleeding then.

White Peacock

We’ve always see the normal peacock. But what about a white peahen or white peacock. Look it’s white!! White I tell you. Well, maybe it’s something new to me. So just take a sniffy shot of it. Well, there are other animals that we can’t see in Malaysia, take for example the Tazmanian Devil. Yes… there really is something called the Tazmanian Devil, that’s how Looney Toons have that character.

White Kangaroo

When you’re at Australia, nothing beats looking out for the kangaroo. Though this one a bit special. White Kangaroo. Yes… white again. Something we don’t always get to see in my home country. Unless of course you practically went to the zoo. I did touched the animals which are the Koalas and Kangaroos. we even fed the kangaroos directly from our palm. Just don’t be so pushy and touched them wrongly or else you’ll get a kick by them, which can be fatal or guys, if they hit your ‘xiao di di’, say bye bye and I will say Congratulations!

So what do you think then? Need more post on the Australia trip I had? How about the trip to Tumbulgum Farm! Sheep shearing and others. Well, pictures are what it’s worth right? Anyway, signing off right now. I still misssssss the weather there! Well only for spring and autumn though. Anyone wants to go again next year? I am planning to go again!! Wheee~~~~

Earthquake 7.9M – Tsunami

Posted by danielctw On September - 13 - 2007

Looks like it’s time to alert many people. Earlier while I was working in the office around 7:10pm, most of my colleagues said they felt tremors and feels like the building is shaking. Unbeknownst to us, it seems that there really is an earthquake.

Here’s the latest news!

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Meteorological Department has issued a tsunami alert after a powerful earthquake struck off Sumatra, Indonesia at 7.10pm.The department has advised people in the northern states of Perlis, Kedah, Perak and Penang to move away from beaches as a safety precaution.Tremors were felt in parts of the west coast of peninsular Malaysia when the quake struck.

It was centered at 105 km southwest of Bengkulu, Sumatra and 718km southwest of Johor Bahru, at a depth of 15.6km.

Malaysian is adequately equipped to detect a tsunami and issue a warning within an hour before it reaches the shore.

THE STAR

So hope those that are in Penang, Perlis and Kedah, take care as it’s predicted time around 0100 Malaysian time. An emergency evacuation will be announced if there is. For those ShoutOut members, especially those in Bt Feringghi, Tg Bungah, Tg Tokong and other parts of the island near the coastal area, heed the warnings.

I don’t want another Tsunami to happen again like it did the last time where everyone was not really aware.

Edit : It seems the earthquake is now recorded at a high 8.4Magnitude! Too many earthquakes happenings.

A Night Owl

Posted by danielctw On September - 12 - 2007

Owl??? We all know that owls are active at night. Yes… and so am I. I don’t know why, but I am so not me when I wake up in the morning. I am so pre-dominant in the day that I look so sleepy. People always ask, “Hey, you not enough sleep is it?”

Duhhh… well, guessed I am really a night owl. I am so so so active I can do lots of things and think very fast for a code to be written. I think I am OwlMan. Ehhh… noooo.. don’t influence me with Batman. Shoo… Shooo…

I think I am beginning to procrastinate my Perth post. Actually not that I wanted to, but there are photos need to be uploaded which might take a long time when I am doing it at home with my slow slow connection. So Ryu, if you’re still waiting… I am sorry ya, but can I post your that cute photo?? Hehehe!!!!

Well, anyway though I am supposed to be active by night, I still need to go to office in the morning. So if I don’t sleep now, I doubt I’ll be able to survive the whole day tomorrow morning. Just my luck… it 2:53am and I am still awake. It’s nearly 3am for crap.

So a night owl is a hunter by night, he still needs to get himself ready by the morning comes. Pray for me that I don’t fall asleep in the office ok? Thanks!!! *Hugs*
