Free Hug - 2nd Round

Second round, most of the ppl that I actually sms'ed .. and sorry if you guys din met us in The Curve. We was there, but after a while we started wif some good response. The guard came to them - those ppl who doing the free hug .. I was upstair taking from far. After long while of talking .. they cant do it anymore due to they need permission, the guard asked them go the office and apply .. but what we found out - office close. So sorry for Lydia who turned up .. and bare wif the brigh hot sun, but nothing really happened.

Keep everything .. a found out something horror -- My tripod SPOILED ! On my very 1st day of using it .. is still under warranty and goin to KLCC and make noise.

Move on to Bangsar, not bad .. and something kinda interesting -- met some weird ppl. Tho I not around that time, so I wont be posting bout it. Nothing much compare to the 1st time .. so .. not much pics taken. Wil be posted it up but dunoo when. At the mean time . .enjoy the pics that from the 1st free hugs

The Feedbacks + New bag and Tripod

The feedback of them (I din take part . .so yeah .. them) doing the Free Hugs is kinda good from what I get from =). According to my info .. they could be the another time. So peeps wanna join ? I can keep u all update for that part.

Just in case u wonder for more of that info .. here are the few peeps actually posted it as well :
Angie, Kath, Justine

For me . I kinda feel neutral after awhile ..just enjoy taking pics.

Well .. after that day .. I realise I do need a tripod .. coz I actually dun haf any .. and I need a new camera bag, the curent bag was kinda spoiled .. urgh. So after long thinking . and finally make my decision on which to get. So .. I throw in quite a number of cash for a kinda good quality tripod .. and a Crumpler Brazillion camera bag.
Kinda .. sad lookin at the amount of money that splash out .. but .. looking at the stuff I get .. =) not that bad tho.

More pics !! Enjoy

Free Hugs ! - Story on my side

After I post bout this Free Hugs thingy as the 3rd party .. So, since I was there .. I do haf some stories .. hehe. But anyway, for some reason I'm the only one who din give out any free hugs or so. All the time I was taking pictures and pictures. That is what my purpose on that day. I knew it kinda last min tho. Went there wif PeiWen and of coz wif my camera and lenses. I realise .. if they wanna do this kinda free hug, is kinda nice if I take from far range. That is using my 70-300 lense. Shaz, Peiwen, JayYan holding their own camera standing near them .. and I go somewhere far and try to fully utilize my 70-300mm lense. But after a while .. I realise is no good. My hand gets tired .. and my lense is just a G lense no VR. No Tripod .. after few shots .. I decide to move down and change to my 18-70mm lense. Take from close range.

Ppl are kinda aware on me taking pictures .. and some thought we were from a newspaper and afraid their pics shown on newspaper or Tv .. sometimes we do haf to explain. So while taking pics and there is this Indian dude that start talking to us and wonder what are we doing .. Is not a bad talk tho .. explain our motive, telling them we are not related to any organization or so ..
But times that . ppl thought there is a campaign . and we are like the 1st day . and there is few more days coming at the same place ..same time kinda thing. Apparently this ppl never heard before free hugs stuff. Walking around wif my camera .. snap as many pic as I can, snap those kodak moment as fast as I can .. for me .. is not that relax .. but is kinda tired as well .. Rain start pouring down, so we thought of call it a day .. while we moving towards another spot to get Aaron an Shaz, we happen to stop near TGIF and cont this kinda thing .. til the guard asked us to move back where we were just now. Im guessing we blocking da traffic flow at the side. Rain stopped while we moved back .. so we cont the Free Hugs. While the response getting better and better .. we realise we haf to call it a day anyway .. due to ppl's attention focus on the celcom stuff there. But everyone was tired .. so =)

Well .. after reading from what Lydia, Angie, Geri's comment .. Im guessing is kinda success .. and good news. There is gonna be 2nd time.

At the end a shampoo advertisement pic - =P Taking what Ps Matt Fielder said before I should go .. "COME OUT IN JESUS NAME !! " =P jk ..

Free Hugs ?

Sunday, 23 September 2007. 4 p.m.

There is bunch of young ppl, around 5-6 of them appear at The Street of The Curve holding manila card and wif the word "Free Hugs" on it.

Ppl walking pass .. and just give that kind of "what are u all are doing" kinda face expression. Some even whisper in a loud voice "desperate ... " .. and of coz, some ask what organization .. and some just support by -- Hugging !!

Why are this young ppl standing there .. and giving out free hugs ?? Are they desperate ? The answer will be definitely - NO ! You wont be supprise that how many ppl are actually walking there, looks happy but yet inside of them is real sad .. or just moody. Giving a hug to them .. u might just cheer them up just by that simple way. This ppl actually doing it not for profit, not for any benefit. But willingly, just to spread the love around. We the Asian country, is not as open as the foreign country wherelse hugging is kinda common.
In Malaysia, ppl still think that .. guys hug guys = gay .. gals hug gal is ok wan. Guys hug gals = unless is ur gf, if not u just taking advantage of them .. But there is frenship hug and so on.

Not just because of what normally ppl think. But the prob is .. even tho is a free thing .. but yet, the response wasnt that awesome at all. Ppl just come and ask "Y free hug ?? " U can give out free gift .. and ppl just queue up and ask for more. But when giving out free hugs .. ppl just think that there is motive behind .. or there is some newspaper thingy .. if not there will be some candid camera doing some prank stuff .. and show on Tv .. Tons of explanation .. and tons of ppl asking us.

Salute and high respect to those tat took part in it !! Standing there for few hours, under the not so heavy rain, expose themself wif all sort of weird and negative comments, which I believe din hurt them at all. Taking the risk of facing all sort of ppl. Seriously, u wont know what kind of motive when some weird ppl come and hug u.

What am I was doing ?? Im not giving out any free hugs .. just if u wonder. I just taking pictures and pictures and pictures. =) More stuff come out .. wait til I sort out what to post bout "Free hugs". At the mean time . enjoy all the pics !! and ... im not in any of the pic =P

(Ps: that is not me .. that is JayYan wif her EOS40D )

Nikon D70s

Lenses that been use :
18 - 70mm F3.5/5.6
70 - 300mm F4/5.6

ps : more pics coming up

Random Thought again

Browse thru the net .. and spotted some group that I joined under invitations had become private .. for some reason, the founder was found accused and decide to left that group .. It reminds me bout .. how things screwed up when u just getting hand on it. I had it before .. quite some times back, was quite active and mix myself around wif the peeps in the lobby (that is u noe what kind of term Im talking bout). Poking ppl or biting ppl which I normally used to do, from a newbie til someone can stand at the top 10 ranking which makes me feels great .. everytime when u logged in, ppl wil just greet you .. makes u feel so much at home. Tho .. never get to meet them before .. they were just over in another places. Well .. one day .. someone just screwed me up .. and I just decide to quit that group after like .. 2 -3 years ? hmm ..

Wasnt really in moood is some of the reason, wont tell you unless you are someone that I duno of. Thaat is kinda of weird answer I gonna say. I wont tell anyone .. perhaps .. I just keep it to myself. Feeels kinda sad .. Feels kinda left out .. Actually .. is feels very very left out .. Lost track since when I do haf this kinda feeling. Was mixing quite well .. but .. I guess when times come .. things just wont last long. Suppose be a happy time .. but it never be anymore. Doing it .. more like a routine to me .. and I feel kinda reluctant of doing it anymore.

Im still ok .. Im still ok for those who are concern .. is just ....

Nvm .. forget bout it .

Whoa !!!!! The latest world ranking for football is out !!

Tho we do lifted up the Merdeka Cup .. (Finally a cup .. ) But .. it does not change the fact ..

Malaysia football world ranking - 159th !!

about 2 months ago .. our ranking was - 154th ...

Speechless ..

Colin McRae

Woke up in the morning, take the newspaper and start reading it .. then I came across this lil news at the side, bout a former WRC driver was killed in the plane crush .. Due to is a chinese newpaper, so the name is kinda translation, try to pronounce it .. and it just goes "Colin McRae " . I was shocked ..

"The former rally driving champion Colin McRae was killed and his five year-old son feared dead in a helicopter crash yesterday afternoon. The aircraft came down in Jerviswood, Lanarkshire, half a mile from the family's home and burst into flames just after 4pm. ....... "

A great WRC driver who drove for Subaru, Ford, Citroen and Skoda. Sad wif this kinda ending ..

The Reason

There is ppl alwiz wonder, how come always see me with camera ..
There is ppl alwiz say .. "Can u for once at least leave ur camera alone .. "

I just love to take pictures, tho Im not that good wif my DSLR, but I still learning my way thru.. I just enjoy to being behind the camera, infront of the camera is gonna freak me out.

I just hate to be in the picture, I just kinda scare to be in the picture as well.

There is time, not so long ago, Chris was asking me ppl's picture, need to compile it for some pressie .. I can actually give out everyone's pic, but when comes to me .. I just noe that I wont have any of my pic by myself alone ..

I will never enjoy looking at myself inside the picture ..

That is one of the reason, I love to be a photographer/videographer .

Conclusion - is random stuff .. =P (omg .. what happen to me ? )

haha this is kinda funny .. =P poking someone eyes =P that is just like what I love to do in msn *pokes*

A very good way to annoyed someone =P but .. erm .. dun do it on the wrong time or even wrong ppl .. I can guanrantee u gonna get smack nicely.


Hahha look who is the one talking ! =P They are just the same and yet ..

Eh .. This is sad or funny ?

I feel the pain now

Have u ever heard of this old joke ?

A man sits in the pub, wif a very sad face. Another person approach to him .. and ask :
"U look sad, what happen ? "
The man answer :
"My wife decide not to talk to me for 6 months .. "
"Owh .. I understand how it feels, I'm sorry to hear bout that .. "
The man look at him and say :
"No you dont, u see, today is the last day of the 6 months .. "

When I read bout it, I feel is a joke. But I guess .. now I do feel the pain of the man that saying that is the last day of his wife that not goin to talk to him. Definitely is not my wife duh ! Is just .. some other stuff, tat makes me feel so smiliar wif that situation .. ppl gonna see me sad and ask me y .. and I gonna reply the same thing . ish ! Never realise that I can actually that joke ..

~ + ~

Is been such a long time I din actually post up any pic .. simply 1 reason - having dilemma again .

Is just .. everything seems like goes wrong once again, and I actually feel kinda down ? sigh ..
