Photo Adventure: Bird Park.

photo DSC_0170edited.jpg


A few weeks ago I had the pleasure to help my friend, Najwa, with her assignment on photography. She had to take photos of anything using a few techniques such as slow shutter, panning, etc and tbqh, those techniques aren't my level of expertise but with my little know-hows in photography, I helped her as much as I could. Besides, she had already learned in her class beforehand so the difficulty was reduced to a minimum.

We decided to go to Bird Park since in our circumstances, it's probably as far as we could go and there aren't many picturesque places around KL nor Shah Alam. The last time I went there was early of 2010 and it was actually the time when I had first gotten my Ronnie aka D90 so it wasn't actually a foreign place for me haha.

For a moment there I thought I was in a foreign country.

And then we had lunch at the Bird Park's restaurant. After probably 2 hours of taking photos and walking, we were pretty ravenous!
Najwa submitted the photos and apparently her lecturer is satisfied with the outcome. Yay!

      Hi Hajer sorry I just noticed your comment T__T I don't even know how I learn it haha but from time to time if I ever feel bored I would go on flickr and get inspired. Try to follow as many inspiring photographers as you can (there are quite a few on flickr that you can find ^^). I would usually take note on how they play with the angling btw hehe. Oh and please do go and get yourself a 50mm lens if you haven't! It's affordable and it does a lot of wonders, trust me :-D

Sian Acu

Curi tulang a bit from work to write this. LOL jk. Just got a bit (a handful actually) of time to spare and I just have to HAVE to document this in the form of writing (or in this case, blogpost). So last week after work, I went out to have a nice dinner in Subang with my family sans Ayah. As we had parked our car, I was carrying my lil’ niece, Hana (Ehem, I don’t usually carry her because my goodness is she heavy but that night was an exception hehe just needed to get the bond and chemistry going) and in the distance, I saw the LRT train was passing by and we all know how kids are very intrigued about all these weird-looking, moving things, therefore I happily pointed the train to show it to Hana. Here’s a very funny conversation I had with her: Me: Hana, Acu hari-hari naik train pergi work. Hana: Acu naik sorang-sorang je? (read: ye. Hana has this habit of saying “je” at the end of each of her sentence) Me: Ha ah. Acu naik sorang-sorang. Hana: Sian Acu. Guys, ...

Terkesima Trip - Singapore, 2016

Image
I had always wondered if there will ever come a time for me to actually step out of tanah airku for as long as I still breathe. Though I was told that I had been to Singapore before but apparently I was still a baby then - one that I had no clear, and vivid memory of. I could barely speak then, let alone walk, therefore it's almost too impossible for me to trace any available memories of me being physically there. Hence, I wouldn't count it as me having been to another country before. Alhamdulillah. I guess Allah swt heard my prayers, I was blessed with a chance to travel out of the country for the very first time in my entire existence (and without my family's presence). When this opportunity arose I honestly didn't want to lose it, although it was pretty hard to convince Ayah of allowing me to go to Singapore. You see, Ayah had always been protective and careful of me whenever I decide to go out without him but as I grow older, his protection over me is reduced...

He had His reasons

Saw this sijil and it immediately brought me back to earth. I remember feeling restless at the camp. My heart thumped unusually and I broke out into profuse sweat. Could be because it was my first time being away from home. Away from my family. Signs of homesickness I presumed. A new feeling. But the next thing I knew, life took its own course the following week. And everything just fell into place and gave meaning to my restlessness. I lost the one person who had Paradise beneath her feet. My Mimi. This certificate, it exists not as a form of nostalgia nor a form of sentimentalism. It exists to remind me that in a span of short period of time, anything could happen or be taken away from me, granted that they are actually lent  to me. But of course, everything that happens has already been written,  Maktub. Every shape or form that we possess in this life are not ours. Even our own selves. Eventually, everything belongs to Allah swt and it's only fair if He decide...
