temptation is setting in for a good camera.
the keyword is good, thus all the look good, aluminium/titanium/carbon fibre 10mega pix, x3 zoom consumer cameras are out.
DSLRs are out too. for 2 main reasons.
1. budget. your's truly does not belong to the class of people who was reported in Saturday today. those !@#%^&* that have starting pay upon graduation of 3k.
2. skills. or rather a lack of skills. being a male homo sapien, i dun exactly cam whore too much. or at all. thus the lack of photos EVER appearing in this blog. which leads to the conclusion i have barely even handled a camera in my life. sad isn't it.
but behold! the miracle that is the Sony H7 Cybershot.
8.1 mega pixels.
15x zoom.
1/4000 sec shutter speed.
and its rather within my budget! at $699!
considering i was considering a semi pro DSLR that would set me back a grand(or more, considering the lenses, flash and dry cabinet)
i need to stop indulging myself. good food(recently at Foster's) and my wishlist is easily hitting ten grand(excluding the cars)
henceforth i will concentrate on saving at least ten grand per year. which will subsequently be used to invest.
As one of my 'now rich, last time SAF officer' customer said:
'to get rich, just remember this few things. 1. never spend more than you earn, so no credit cards. 2. invest in something you will never lose money. and most importantly, 3. remember rule no1.'
just when u thought life can't get any better(actually it can... ... by a large margin too)
managed to stumble on felicia chin's blog! either that or its one hell of a successful stalker.
for the unenlightened, felicia chin is tcs8's hottest, cutest, prettiest, spunkiest and cutest actress.
and i, your's truly, has had the utmost priviledge of running into(literally, once) into her twice in my blessed life and have twice failed to leave an impression. or a number.
ah well, she looks better when she's outta reach. as usual.
the highest fruit always tastes better, as they say.
wouldnt want my image of her to drop like it did of fiona xie's. or vivian lai's. or stef sun's.
haven't had much luck with celebrities, though celest chong did live up to reputation.
well back to felicia chin, she is one hell of a role model for girls.
at least the image she displays, considering i dunno know her personally.
the kinda girl that u can bring home to show your parents, go out and feel constant proud of yourself for landing such a catch.
Rebecca Tan (the current Maxim cover girl) is another good example. =X
life has been awfully nice to me this days.
I've seen the best car, drank the best wine and went for the best concert.
it started when a Pagani Zonda S rolled into our shop the other day. For the unenlightened, its a supercar that houses a AMG V12 engine and full carbon fibre body.
who needs your everyday lambo that you practically see every other day?
that was followed by a bottle of Petrus 1975. try running a google on it, it costs about 3k?
of course, the following party at kp's was pretty neat. gambling is one major stress reliever, especially when you dont lose money.
Lucky 3! some insider pun.
and today! i only can say one thing.
四大天王之首！
Jacky Cheung's Year Of Jacky Cheung 2007 World Tour!
even at the age of 46 he still belts out his songs like he's never been past his prime
even his rendition of emil's 明天我要嫁给你了 and stef sun's 天黑嘿，and jeff chang's 爱如潮水 was nothing short of pure genius.
singers like him who rely on actual skills to achieve his status.
unlike the latest fab of cute looking (trying to look cute anyway) singers who can't sing.
what can i say? i think if you told me i'm to die tomorrow, i'll have no regrets.
okayyy. maybe just one.
yes, one.
15mins of Victoria Secrets Fashion Show has left me wondering how on earth can so many cute faces and beautiful legs can fit into 1 venue without the male staff dying of extreme dehydration or severe blood loss.
saints, i tell you. saints.
or maybe they're just plain gay.
or maybe i just refuse to believe some people's job is just to help dress all those pretty ladies.
oh boy... random shopping can have its benefits, i guess
waxing just took on a whole new dimension(not to say i, or any of us actually went for it, just to set the record straight)
being a friend is one hell of a troublesome task too
dinner at lei gardens! some seasonal pumpkin.
sounds boring doesn't it? not if the pumpkin comes stuffed with prawns, mushrooms, braised pork, roasted duck, abalone and random stuff. and you need to pre-order it. and only appears on the list twice a year.
stole a peek at the final deal... it was either 300+ or 500+. you know how 3 and 5 look alike.
either ways, obviously i had no hand in paying for it.
fully booked for the whole of next week except tuesday. so... its high time to catch up with some friends the week after.
ade! when's our dinner or lunch!
talk about waking up early... 7.30am!
anyway.. transformers was pretty neat. the effects were pretty cool, the jokes were kinda funny and the plot was rather substantial. BUT! Megan Fox is sizzling hot. period.
either ways, time to head to the office, despite today technically being my off day.
appointment with my doctor and a PR registration to do.
