Canon PhotoMarathon Experience

Audrey was joining this marathon event organized by canon in Penang on 16 Oct 2010. It was excited at the first place till couldnt sleep well on friday night as this is the 1st experience joining competition in  my  entire life.  Audrey was actually kinda panic to get to know the first theme and out of idea. In fact, it was the same for the next two themes. Scratching my head all the way! Eventually, I submitted 3 snapshots for the competition. There were indeed just snapshots! Let's the video speak out!

戏子们

Audrey went to watch chinese opera with family. Both of me and my sister have never seen this before. It's our first family outing after shifting house. I am glad to get a chance to have a nice chat with the performer behind the stage. She told me some of the do and don't about the opera group. I shared it with my parents. My daddy said she is cheating small kid! Audrey is definitely not a small kid. 

Some are the boxes that keep the performance attires are not allowed to sit on or even kicked. I am not sure about the reason. Do you really believe it if kid playing their drum will get stomachache? My dad said it was just some white lies to ask me not playing..... What do you think?

A Kiss from You

A Kiss from You, By Audrey Leong

It's been awhile Audrey did not share any photo. Passion seems not as hot as before or it's mainly due to it has been quite awhile in this hobby and Audrey is not sure what to do for a unique shot that can become her most favourite shot. The camera has been storing in the cupboard for two weeks. Blerrk!

Next week is the week to take part in Photography Competition. This is my first attempt to join photography competition. I wonder how would it be! Audrey's collegue told her about the secret of energies are surrounding us daily. Negative thoughts would attract more unhappy incidents so we must have good imagination of what we really want in us. It will eventually come to us. Audrey told this collegue that she should imagine the happy moment to call back home to inform her mother that she has won the big prize! haha... What a good imagination ya!   Yeah! I am looking forward for the nice experience in the competition. Just keep the passion on!

Junk Foods

It has been quite sometime I didnt eat junk food. Stingy Yume wouldn't buy such expensive foods since many things has happened and predictable to be worsen. Yume bought a Mr Potato Chips today though to reward herself. I wonder whether Yume is getting older, Junk foods are no longer her favourite after all but kedondong! Yummy! It has been a tired day! Time to rest and enjoy the little personal space at night to keep breathing.. ;D

Hi! I am back.

It has been quite sometimes Audrey did not update blog. There are many inner conflicts happening within myself regardless there are positive or negative one these days. I am definitely sure Audrey will grow up after all these inner conflicts solved! That makes me shifting my focus awhile to regain energy, I guess. A lot of reading done by me recently and sometimes fell asleep after pondering the same thing over and over again.

Breathless, I am holding it too tight.
It's time to learn letting go and learn to have fun!
I have been too tense since last year due to some incidents...
That's the first thing to learn! TO　ＬＥＴ　ＧＯ！ ;)

I am pretty sure Audrey can do it well! I know what's important to do right now for a better future no matter for myself or my family!

Thanks for the insight Confucius!

A Tourist's Diary

I was reading a true story book of modern day slavery for a few days. Some women/children struggle living in the third world country fighting for a better life for their family but was later enslaved in the new working environment abroad. It makes me realize how fortunate I am. We are fortunate enough to have full meal everyday with foods we love, shelter, transport, work & etc. Shall we still ask for more?

I took a walk along the street observing people surrounding me with the intention to look for someone who maybe in a bad/worse working environment but..........That's a great experience though to experience something new to be treated like a tourist from Japan. ;)

I love the feeling of their friendliness telling me: "kawaii" in hope that I could help them buying something. I love even more when the hawker & the biker in the back street became so good in manner and say hi with a smile. The hawker's wife got mad though asking her husband to prepare & open their stall for business. "What are you still looking at? Back to your work!" I laughed secretly as I was passing by. It was a dramatic joke of the day for me like drama from HK. There isn't many friendly people on the street. I remember I was scolded by blocking a watch seller's road without noticing his existence during school days. I wonder tourists must have some privilege status over them, their butter & bread. Opps, I shall say their abalone & sharkfin.

Nevertheless, I hate the feeling when the price they offered me for a magnifier glass with a stand was skyhigh. It dropped to RM25 immediately after he realize that I am actually a Malaysian. They must have been earning a lot these days ya.

Perhaps, it was all my little big camera's fault hanging around my neck. Who would have such interest in capturing photo in KL area? tourist, perhaps? Nice experience!
