My 2nd entry on NDP 2010 is out 🙂
http://www.ndp.org.sg/ndpeeps/?p=164
continuing here on what I didnt manage to cover over there
When I saw everything on arrival, I was more interested in taking photos of the uniform group children. *Probably too much of a teacher le ba. 😀
But ya, that was the immediate thought, like you know… When I wanna shoot, theres always a sketch in mind, like wat angle, what I wanna see in my photo, those kind of thing….
anyway, 🙂 let you see some of whats on my mind:
Standby for Water Parade!!! 😀
I like this:
As always, it never have to be the subject looking at the photographer in-order for the photo to be looking good. *k, in this case looking at me la. 😀
Happen to see this on the polo t of a photographer. 😀 *Flash us your smile. 😀
I tell you the weather was so hot… that even the canteen stall holders (whos indoor) are eating ice cream…
😀
we had catered food 🙂 Heres my boss (of the many many boss-es I have) Tommy showing off the catered food 😀
🙂 The man behind the microphone during the rehearsal:
People camera shy la huh 😀
Was there just listening to him evaluating the rehearsals…
“Sector YYY pls follow timing after … ” on and on and on just pointing out the details. (not in the room as in the photo, but on the actual ground through the sound system)
Wah, like the person with the bird eye view lo.
Dunno how to tell you, but its really tremendous.
Unless one have the experience, unless one know exactly what one is doing, I dont think one will be able to speak off and correct items at such precision lo…
*SaLute!
The Parade Commander. You’ll be hearing his voice on the TV on the actual day.
He is so FAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got presence one oki, Even Ms Ng also dont dare to lean too close…
And I was on 3inch stiletto, so its not fair to compare height here~
kk, maintain maintain 😀
Found out that there are actually students from polys who would come down and do video productions as FYP. Then on National day itself, while the marching is going on, and you see those video on the big screen hanging behind, those are their projects. *interesting…
The hunk of PUB (so they say):
The landscape through my sunglasses:
The two gif that didnt come out right on the site:
oki, check out more over at the NDP site
What you see here is only part of it, Be Nice~ http://www.ndp.org.sg/ndpeeps/?p=164
Do leave comments, tell me what you wanna hear from the participants, what would you like me to ask them. 🙂
Probably for security reasons, we (the bloggers) were brought around to be introduced. The whole time, I hear all the different different ranks.
At the back of my mind, a bell keeps ringing.All the different ranks, it didn’t matter.
In as much as due honour is deserved, we all know.
Everyone has a role to play.
It’s not about one man, it’s not abt one woman.
It’s about the team, everyone.

Renae (Hamster)
Went to the doctors the other day and had to wait for a very very long time.
Me and my itchy backside decided to step into the Pet shop next door.
Lo and Behold…
I saw these:
AWwwWwwWwwww It is so cute I tell you…
…
That is the beginning of my Hamster adventure. 😀
After chatting with a friend, realize those in the photo were Dwarf hamster.
I love the 2 colors, like when its sleeping, the breathing, u can see the rise and the fall… *I am so stolen away
Tweeted about it to a friend whom I know rears hamster, and he hooked me up and recommended me the Syrian species.
Fast forward to a week later, @sidneyreuben brought me down to meet @hamsterhoarder
and I bought Renae!
*yes, photo out of focus, the photos will be better as the days come by.
She’s being described as Long Hair Satin Cream Girl
Birthdate: 12 February 2010
Co-incidentally, while I was on way to meet Reuben, I read Miao’s blog. He did a video on his hamsters.

Earth Hour 2010
In-case you didnt know, Earth Hour 2010 was on 27th March, 8:30pm. Everywhere around the world, according to their local time, people switch off the lights for 1 hour. 🙂
Toggle on over to Boston.com ‘s Big Picture to see these fascinating switch off the lights. Click on the photos to see the fade out, switch off lights effects. 🙂
Do you know…
1 recycled plastic bottle saves enough energy to light a 60W bulb for 6 hours

And a 22-watt fluorescent light bulb emits the same brightness as a 100-watt incandescent light bulb.

In the 1870’s, Thomas Edison used carbonized bamboo fibre as filament in the development of the light bulb. The carbonized filament he used then still works and is on display at the Smithosionan in Washington D.C.

The brain operates on the same amount of power as 10-watt light bulb. The cartoon image of a light bulb over your head when a great thought occurs isn’t too far off the mark. Your brain generates as much energy as a small light bulb even when you’re sleeping.

Combining metal with acid (like lemon juice) causes a chemical reaction that creates positive and negative particles around each piece of metal. The negative particles will move through the wires from one piece of metal to the other, which causes an electric current. If the reaction is strong enough, it can even power a light bulb!

Cant seem to trace the one that I was refering to. Could only find this short and recorded version. (dont use head set)

|Stiletto|
Had plenty of incidents where the universal question pop.
“Just what is it with girls and their Stiletto?”
It provoked me very badly cos I love my stiletto, not as in the shoe, but rather the whole body language when I wear it out.
2 and 1/2 inch killed me, but I’m floating on my 3 inch.
To me its a social etiquette thing, slippers and flats are casual, like you wear them at home or to the market.
When I go out for social events, go out and face the world, I wanna present myself well. I want people to know that I appreciate being invited there. I am bothered about my presence.
Its just me really. Not saying it is not right to wear sensible heels. To each its own.
So I went to the library to look it up, is it really just a social etiquette thing after all?
😀 Turns out, nope. 🙂 Those killer heels went a long way back.
Started to change the impression of a country, to move her out of the Second World War shadows.
Continued as the image of feminism changes.
Became a tool that speaks more than just whats below.
🙂 I extracted some parts of the book and put them in the Stiletto page.
If you are keen, do read it with a pinch of salt, as it is only from 1 book, doesnt represent Stiletto as a whole. 🙂
Categories includes:
1. Un-categorized
2. Short-takes
3. History
4. Its Not Smart
5. And The Celebrities Says…
6. Suck it in
7. Its In The Head
Link: http://www.avnjl.com/stiletto/
I like this extract:
“The stiletto is a feminine weapon that men don’t have, but women come into the shop and they complain. They say “I can’t walk, I can’t run in these shoes!’ I say ‘Why run? In the reality of life, nobody’s running… If you walk in a certain rhythm you can watch the city, see the buildings, you see more of the landscape – and it permits men to stop you – otherwise you cross life without seeing it.” (pps. 160)
