My Bizzare Brainwork Says

Woohoo! 大日子

Last night, I FINALLY managed to get tickets to watch the much talked about 100% local chinese movie Woohoo!

Never expected that a local production would be so so sought after until i need to kept on trying to get tickets for 2 weeks. -___-

I thought after Yasmin Ahmad passing,  Malaysia movie industry will be bleak.

I was wrong! Woohoo was beautifully made!

Its was so funny, the lines are cleverly infused with local puns and jokes. Especially making fun oh Penang “slang”. Got Meh??? Abit Nia la… cis cis

Also contains  some moral values in it. Like bits about Family, ah kong, ah ma, ah pa stories. But all in all, very nicely made. (mentioned dont no how many times already )

The mood setting of the entire film is very nice as well. Don’t know how they are able to capture the beauty of Malaysia kampung life. It’s like 500 days of Summer minus love story, more localize

Some boring fact for those who might want to know before watching the movie

“Woohoo” (tiger dance) is a tradition practiced in a small village – Beserah, Kuantan during a praying ceremony every 60 years. As the only old-aged heir of “Woohoo” can no longer perform, his filial granddaughter put up a misleading advertisement which then attracted five youngsters from different background – Ah Beng, a bad-tempered bank security, Ah Huat, an indecisive Char Kuey Teow hawker, Rain, a sissy but soft-hearted designer, Bobby, a university student who likes to crap, and Alan, a show-off – to be trained as “Woohoo” players.

Now, go and support our local film!! Very recommend to all..

Happy super long weekend !!! Looking forward to 6pm today and going off work  hahahahha

Lx3

And I swear I’ll not buy any cameras anymore. Analogue or Digital for the next 5 years unless misfortune befall upon me.

My old lumix served me well and is showing signs of retiring ages. Plus, i’ve been wanting to own a LX3 since I saw it last year during Jazz Festival…

Another year gone

Continuation from the previous post.

So after lunch, me and MrSmallFace finally got to watch 2012 together. I think its a nice movie. The impact of the natural disaster scenes was great!

Dinner was at Sid’s Pub, Bangsar South. Been wanting to try the place after reading so much review from everywhere.

They renovated the place to make it look like any other of the thousand pubs in UK. Knowing how I love UK, it’s the perfect place for my birthday. Simple dinner with the group of friends, just like always, everyone rowdy and happy clappy.

The place was very full and we had to wait for almost 20mins to get a table for our party of ten. So while waiting, we ordered a couple of pints. As you can see, mine is already half gone ZzzZzz…

The place serves all sorts of beers from the tap. To my delight, they have cider…!\

No further a due, Cheeboo’s spring chicken.

This blue cheese with mushroom is so so so good! I ordered it halfway through our meal and no regrets. I love cheese and mushroom, this dish have best of both HMmmmm!! Almost everyone was dipping their fries into the oozy cheesy goodness.

My “Ben Nevis” burger which is double pork patties, egg, bacon AND  cheese..Can you say “WOW!”

It tastes so delicious! Will definitely go back again for it. again and again.

MrSmallface Pork Vindaloo. It was too spicy for me that I can’t really taste anything..

LadyCow’s chicken in a basket. Which is chicken strips and fries in a basket.

Lancashire Pot. No idea what it is as did not tasted it.

i just love my order for that night. Meat and cheese galore ♥ If i’m not careful, surely will gain all the weight that I’ve lost…

With Teongli..Thanks for always layan-ing my last minute calls for dinner and introducing me to all the nasi lemak around our area!

LadyCow.. Just missing Autumn Dear :(

With my only cake this year.  They gave me the cake before twelve with XX number of candle…

I’m gonna make taking instant photo with birthday cake a tradition.

And then soon after the clock strike twelve, the gang suddenly start singing again. To my surprise. It’z my favourite mille crepe cake. Thanks LadyCow for remembering. ♥

The guys gave me the key to join the charm club..

It’s something for them to start and MrSmallface to continue hehehe. I bet many people did not know that I’ve been wanting to have  a charm bracelet for the longest time. I love reading Enid Blyton’s while I was young and very much influence by it. There was once I stumbled into a shop selling all the trinkets and charm in Sheffield but all I can afford is stare and admire how pretty and shiny all the tiny charms are. Now I own one ♥ ♥ ♥!!! Weeee…

Thanks guys for such a nice, cozy night!! Eh, but how come the picture is missing Rubberband??

The next day, DivaLisa treated me to a nice lunch at Apartment.

Before dropping MrSmallFace to the airport, we had a simple dinner at Kissaten, Jaya One. Highly recommended.

The food are reasonable priced and good with great portions.

My weird ginger beer. I don’t know why I ordered it. Properly cos I fancy the packagin -__-

Mushroom Hamburger Steak. Plenty of gravy. So yummy.

MrSmallface udon that comes with drinks

and also gyoza. All these for less than RM50. Great deal.

And they play Jazz music. I likey!

Finally when I went home, MrSmallFace left a final surprise for me under my bed. I practically had to crawl all the way under it to get it…ZzzZzzz

Surprise, no?? I bet you are surprise too  So creative, always the artistic ones ♥

It was a great weekend well spent. Happy Happy ♥♥♥  MrSmallFace did an awesome job arranging everything. If there’s anything that went wrong during the weekend, its only me to blame for being such a control freak and too smart to surprise.. ngek ngek ngek…

Just like that another year has gone by. Grown a year older and i hope wiser with the things I learn in life. Definitely half the size  AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA ..

Happy Birthday to me

DianaF+ Qing Hua

I’ve been crazy over lo-fi cameras since 2002 when I first saw the supersampler/frog eye in Christal’s house. It was so much fun playing around with it, even with no films inside -__-

Then last year, i was introduced to Diana series by Kimmie because before that I intended to get Holga. Anyway, I can’t afford any of it .

Until earlier this year, I got the UWS to add to my le familiaz Then I got my first roll of UWS developed, i so loved the end result, which pushed me further into looking at getting a diana vs holga. But diana eventually won due to the vast lenses and versatility it offers.

Do you know how out of of the world I felt when I know that an instant back can be fitted to Diana = producing the best of both world, best combination. INSTANT LOMOGRAPHY!!! that would have to wait though, until i get a firm grip it.

It was so damn difficult to get the lomo that you want, not mentioning a reasonable price one. After I did some homework, I decided to get DianaF+ Qing Hua from lomokids. They offer a HUGE range in malaysia that is at a very reasonable price. Cheaper than Mooks or those at Wondermilk. The only downside is they have a 10 days lead time for the item to arrive.

That’s why most of the people on my MSN list were wondering “who the hell is diana!! ” as my status reads: Diana come to mama!! and when I tell them sheepishly “its a toy camera” most responded with a long

-_______________-||||

So unlike MrSmallFace, who by the way, got Diana for me!!!! ♥♥♥♥ Early birthday present. To avoid any disappointment, real smart move. hahaha!

I got the camera from Jimbab? Sorry i did not really get your name. He was really nice and friendly. Guiding me and already giving me advice on how to go about making full use of Diana! Definitely will recommend anyone who intend to get a camera  from lomokids. On time in delivering and helpful too.

I realize there’s lots of exclamation mark in this post, which usually doesn’t really happen. But I’m realllly really happy that I finally gotten my hands on a DIANAAAAA!!!

Here it is!!

So pretty isn’t it.

The Qing Hua Diana F+ by Dorophy Tang
Designer and illustrator Dorophy Tang has become the latest to add her unique touch to the Diana F+. This special edition reflects Tang’s signature style, which mixes vintage elements and traditional Chinese influences – known as Qing Hua Ci. See the Dororthy Tang trademark in red. Classic!

Front, aerial and profile photo of my baby!

The box came with

Diana F+ Quing Ha Edition camera
- Diana+ Flash
- “More True Tales & Short Stories” Diana Vignettes hardcover book
- Color Gel Filters
- 12 & 16-shot format frames
- Shutter lock, Neckstrap, Lenscap

Finally me….. *satisfied & contented & exhilarated & hyperventilated & happy*

Due to the fact that it’s is a bitch getting and developing 120mm film in Malaysia, I’ve gotten Diana her partner in crime, –> The 35mm back!!

Can’t wait to start shooting WOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!

Let’s our journey begin. capturing moments in life   Just shoot!!
