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 ..
