Umber Update

Just after talking to Mr. Broke just now. Seems like my phone is going haywire again. Hope to be able to fix it. Won’t want to spend much money on hp these day.

The direct digital printing machine
For the past two months my life has been very intense with the direct digital printing machine. It has in a way inflict a high degree of misery upon my life..Some mental torture and little amount of emotional disturbance… past and partial of it as it evolve around my life a lot. Until today we were able to meet up with a Taiwanese supplier in this area as well. Thought I will be flying to Tokyo and hv some drift… but luck again could bring me to Bangkok next. Whatever it is I will keep my finger cross. I really hope we could come to certain conclusion of this machine as we have come thus far. At least the support at this moment is really up-to-par as the team of men are really dedicated here. I hope to see some smooth sailing ahead…. At least this will keep us going the extra mile. I really hope the Taiwanese can offer some great deal for us at this point of time and real fast. I hope to be able to generate substantial income as well…. Keep my finger cross again but yet to cast a little hope upon it.

Photography
This is one money sucking hobby currently. Yet to be hope to generate some income out of it as now perhaps it had cover my two pieces of CF card.. ahaha…at least something ler. The lastest a must have is the battery grip offer by a Korean company. Perhaps I would get that one to the collection and call it a day for this year.

Well, I must say I was rather satisfied with my first model shoot last week at the MNG autumn / winter launch. Thanks to Wisky who had make it all possible for us.

Next, perhaps gonna explore more other area of photography. When is Mr. Broke gonna join the camp ler?

My Lumix… hmm… well, thank God I din sell it away. Beside it role as my backup…I think a more vital role it play now is a “rental” without charges for people around me. So far it has prove to be able to earn some decent tea bag ler. I still amaze at what the camera can do after seeing what my old man was capable of showing me his close up shot! U know that FZ-30 big price is 2499.00 just body and built-in standard kits plus zoom lens. What I have throw in is much more fearsome than u can imagine. So just consider the other stuff I throw in as bonus ler. How about it? Or perhaps an expert from SS2 might shed u some light.

What to do before the year runs out?
1. Make some bucks…
2. Go Cameron Highlands and hv hell of the time shooting photos & enjoying my holiday
3. Justin concert on Christmas eve…
4. Leong Eng wedding

My contemporary issue : marriage life

Recently had heard some buddies pouring their “unsung hero” story of their marriage. Hmm.. it seems so karmatic ler. Well, as far as I can understand my buddies all are nice ppl ler. Perhaps u they are too nice ler…and the theory of Guy Roberton has once again prove it point as I had mention earlier on in my blog…let me recap that for u should u miss it..

Guy Robertson : I’m telling u Tan..Women are all evil
Me : ( amaze ) * Is it ?
After some exchange of thought …
Me : What can we do to change or prevent this ?

Guy Robertson : There is nothing you can do about Tan..
Me : hmmm… wow…
Guy Robertson : Except there is two things : First you gotta respect that evil …Second you hv to control the evil..

How true is it? I do not know… Not in a marriage life and any particularly involve in such kind of mediocrity.. So hope u ppl out there could shed some light and identify urself.
Talking about this…I would like to talk about recent two couples I know that at least worthy of mentioning here.

Case study 1 : Kenneth and Eva
Kenneth was not exactly the kind of natural selection with me. It was Raymond who bridge the gap. I still remember the night where I was on my late night routine of calling up ppl for constipation awakening. That guy was sure furious. With his simplicity of mind he fire away sms at me and it was rather sensitive.. Yes, my day has come… the retaliation time…since not much ppl was accustom to such a game… so I blow him as well.. but it ended to fast as he can’t take it ler… hmmm…

So the couple tie the knot this year. Sometime there are couple that are truly meant for each other till death do us part.Well, both of them fit the bill. There is such a natural understanding and love for each other and it is really pleasing to the eyes. I really hope they will live happily ever after. Yea, equal respect and communication between both of them. U can always see their selflessness in complementing each other and in the questions they ask..

Case study 2 : Chae and Yee Ching
Both of them are my high school classmate. Never thought they would tie the knot together. Chae and Yee Ching share much simplicity together. I was in their house last week and having simple dinner. It was fun actually and playing with his kid sure bring much joy and laughter to the house. Hmm… I did ask Yee Ching about her sis…She had a sis which had this big boob. Years ago I can recall there is one night after the mamak she ask can teach her guitar or not? Well, fucking asshole turn down the offer…what are u thinking of man? Am, C, G will do the trick isn’t it? Wonder how is she now…ekekeke

Others story
Nothing much to share recently.. Usual movie and reading… Yumcha..blah blah…
