oh yea..... i forgot to mention

if all of u guys think that Giant is big.... juz so u noe, its barely 1 year old when i took those pics.... it was nearly 2 when we gave it away..... so, basically..... its only a 1 year old PUPPY.... imagine it juz roaming around ur house.... after its fully grown......

The time before called a photographer

Was juz looking thru all my pictures in my com... all 12 gigabytes of them... actually had 15 but when i wanted to reformat my computer when it became a spyware headquaters,had to back up my pics.... used like 18-19 disc all together...Had to delete a whole bunch of them in order to fit in CD's... pics, music files n stuff that i want but dont need gone... deleted....

at 2003, i have hardly any pics....
by 2004, i have pics of my dog n random stuff till near 1 gig
by 2005, not much of a chnge cuz i have not much reason to use the camera....
then 2006, join ed board n photograph club.... went into geometric progression....
2007, walaa... 15 gig....
Now... hardly any changes ever since....

i can remember the time when i have hardly any pictures..... i had my 1st digital camera in form 2.... 1 of the most expensive things i ever held.... about RM600.... now that i look at it... wat a waste... for RM600, it should be reali good... but that one dont even have a single zoom in it....but then again, its electronics.... the longer u wait the cheaper it becomes...

Anyway, I immediately became interested in photography!!! but that was juz personal.... a hobby-like thing.... my dog became my 1st victim.... i took like countless pics and videos of it.....everything... when it first came(my cousin brought it home) till the end.... urm... towards the end was much much less cause it developed a skin problem... so i wouldnt let my subject to look unpleasent...here r some of my pics in the earlier days.... the time before looking into photography seriously....

Behold!! The Chow Chow!
Name: Giant(cuz its big n fluffy)
Gender: Male
Breed : Pure-breed, pedigree Chow Chow








and in various sleeping position.... seriously... its easiest take when its sleeping cuz it wont move so much....








then it started getting an unknown skin disease.... we tried let it heal faster by putting sulfur on it as told by the vet.... but to no avail....



so... we had to put that cone thing that normal ppl only c at movies n cartoons....
(note the changes on the face.....)







soon the condition got out of hand n we had to give it to the professionals to take care of it..... n i havent seen it ever since..... sad sad sad..... After that, i was so so sooooo glad i took so many pics of it.... to me.... the memory of Giant is immortalized...

So this is it... the legend behind me behind a camera.... how it started... how its sparked.... into a burning passion deep in me.....

ok... done... till nxt time...

SCREW IT!!!

i found out 3 minutes after i posted in my blog....
I was right...... my chinese instinct is not so bad after all....
i knew it all along......................................

chiao/whiteseal/prince9(or watever)/study freak......
U R SOOOOOO PREDICTABLE...................

Eh..... some study freak asked me wats does this Chinese character says......
the fella wont tell me anything other than "chu"

so here i am asking all those who can read chinese characters to pls tell me wat it means other than "chu"... if possible translate it to english.....

oh yea.. 1 more thing..... if it meant "pig" or smth like that..... screw it.... somehow, the chinese blood in me is telling me that it is....

U noe wat...... I've decided......

I have decided...... for the good or for the worse...... it doesn't matter.....
whatever obstacle is there ahead, I DONT CARE!!!!! Bring it on, u piece of CRAP!!!!!(materializing my future problems as a piece of crap).
I'm going for it....

I'm sticking wif INTI.... I'm actually gonna be more serious..... I mean it..... I'll start working for it......(as far as my willpower can last me..... but i will atleast give it a good fight) n frens, help me out.... u have permission to wack me if i ever say "lazzzzzzy wan do....." One way or another force me to do it!!!

I'm going for it!!!! INTI is the way to go!!!!
Ditch those chinese ed people!!
Ditch those boring moments when we got nothing to do!!
Ditch those thoughts of maybe going to form 6 could be better

I HAVE DECIDED N IT IS FINAL!!!!! N i'm not planning on letting myself down.....
I'm going for it....

"what is the best option for now??"common question asked....

watever it takes...........................................................................................................................

~ML~

the indecisive me.... college or F6?

i hate making decisions..... now i'm seriously considering form 6.......
i was expecting more of college......

practically.... my life now is.....
class..... makan...... library(of all places??)...... class... go back..... come back the nxt day doing the same routine......

My life now is SO SO SO ROUTINE..... the normal life which i wanted last time but learn despise now..... i enjoyed my life last time... everyday was..... UNPREDICTABLE! (for those whom r close to u, u shud know this story)

yes.. i noe college should be more than that.... but how to make it more than juz that???? there r so few english speaking around me.....

then again.... its gud rite??? if this goes on, seriously.... my grades can go up! cuz mainly my life serves no other purpose but to study..... N thats the main reason to go college rite..... (screw the holistic education thing.... my mum juz wants me to graduate from there n start looking for a job) plus... i already paid the RM3.5k....

If i go for form 6, it'll be more of a gamble.... i may do well.... i may not do well.... depends on my STPM results n wat the local U's offer me...... N wat happens after that??? wat if they start offering me courses like Perikanan or Kemanusiaan.....? i'll become a fisherman???

the road not taken...... now i reali feel it..... or izzit juz me askin too much....? hah... mayb la..... i'll juz shut up n face up to it..... somehow... a decision has to be made... n a decision that can only be made by me................................................................ shyt!

Head filled with thoughts but not willing to make any decision juz yet..... thats juz the indecisive marcus lim that i am....... i'm beginning to feel miserable.... n from the way i look at it now... i wouldn't be happy with either choice i make.....cuz i will think more of the cons of my current choice n pro's of the other choice n also wat i "should" have done.....

or mayb i should actually accept the star edu fund n go KL................................................. wat the hell m i thinking......"mind! do not play tricks with me....."

"scared wat..... most oso i screw up my life oni maaa......"

INTI...My college.... SOO many ppl

when through a whole week of college....
college was.... college.....
SOO many ppl........ seriously..... i tot it would be less.....
there is a minimum of 60-70 ppl for my class..... everytime....
not juz that....80% all chinese ed ppl..... (leaving the other 20% for ppl like me n indians)
not that i'm against chinese ed ppl or anything but..... they speak languages i dun understand....

n so....basically, i was always wif my little grounp of 6 consisting of... joel, toh, ping, jun guan, n boon kit...... kinda lame for college but these r the few ppl that actually understands wat i'm trying to say without having to translate everything i say to a language that they r familiar wif.... (sigh....)

But college is a good place for exercise.... i realized.... going up like 6 floors every time.... a plus point..... ideal to go wif my 1 kg leg weights....(the 2kg one's r too bulky n obvious.... so i dont like it....)

Food is EXPENSIVE.......miserable tartlets at RM1.80 per piece.... i feel poorer everyday spent there...... i spent like RM5 per meal.... n still not full.... (that was the 1st time...) so i resort to adding more rice on each serving and cut down on the dishes.... but there is still ppl like joels who spends RM7.50 on his plate of rice.... walau.... during my time in PFS i lived through wif oni a RM10 allowance per week n by the end of the week i still have remainders.... now its like....I cant even last 3 days wif that amount.... unless i start eating juz white rice like Yi-Wen.... n my mum suddenly stops giving me allowance.... muz go korek from the lump i saved up from the salary i earn....

Lotsa crazy killer drivers at INTI too.... seriously!! there is this fella who goes like 40km/hr in a CAR PARK!! then brekkk wif screeching sounds upon reaching the corners!!! then can see him in big chunky headphones while jerking his head up n down like he's on drugs..... mayb he is.... i dunno.... One thing i'm happy about the car park is that there is ample space for bikes.... i can even park my bike sideways n nobody would care cuz there is so much space.... for bikes that is... for cars, its the opposite.... so hard to find a place to park....

i tot college life would be more fun n interesting... but i guess mine isn't like how i portray it to be... or am i'm hoping for too much...? dunno la... but i'll probably be spending my 5 years here la.....

College here i come....

as for tomorrow, i'll be officially A COLLEGE GUY!!!! yay!!
n the nxt time ppl ask me....
"eh, u form wat d??"
i can proudly say back " I'm in college now. hahahahaha!"
(wait a minute.... mayb not so proudly....cant get that kiddy look off my face...)

for those who didnt know...... previously in my life, this face has got me in a lot of mess.....
i got dragged to the side by police~!! Y? u asked?
speeding? no
illegal parking? no
in wrong lane? no
no P sticker? got
broke the rules on the road...? nope.... sometimes.. but not that time....
the policeman juz came up to me n said....
"Oi, budak! Cukup umur ah?"

insulted straight.................. to make it worse... the above incident happened TWICE.....


Do i reali look too young?
Ahh!! muz be thankful oso la....
always look on the bright side of life!!!
always look on the bright side of life!!!
always look on the bright side of life!!!
(chants like mantra)

ok... whe we're all 50, i'll look like i'm in my thirties...
