Being single / Not being with J
was going to write a million words for this post, but I replace it with 2 words.
Is Awesome !
besides from some crazy and silliness resulted from the break up (getting stabilized),
I m generally more happy and better connected with friends and that alone is awesome
Note: For busy people, just read the bold text. :p

J 101
Oct 13th
After watching How I met your mother S5E3, Robin 101.
I wanted to write J 101,
but I realize how hard it is to not turn this in to a hate post,
everything I can think about her right now is her bad habits.

Considering to buy and take my first sleeping pill, just to knock myself out into normal sleeping pattern.
There is 4 full assignment just started and they are due in 3-4 weeks. Time to get busy but I am having sleeping problems. Well I sleep very well just not in the right time of day.
Looking for songs that helps sleeping, since no one is singing to get me sleepy.
Slow Piano works well I think
I might take piano classes with mummy when I am back in hk since here is nothing much to do. Its never too late to get started I guess.
Maybe drum too.
Maybe mountain bike as well.
Oo maybe a new camera. Well I want 2, a nice compact and a new dslr body. But thats a bit greedy.
Gf1 and d400 / d90 ?
Hmmmm I can take Dad’s d700.
Edit: Gf1 does hd movie. Maybe I get that and swap Take dad’s dslr.
5:47am
Still can’t sleep I hate this.
I only took a 2 hr nap after dinner, and now I can’t sleep >.<
bb just had a nightmare and can't sleep, is crazy how much she resembles a 3 years old.
she is going on a diet and running everyday, I might had mention she is a bit chubby, but is ok, is great for a nice hug, anyways exercise is good, but skipping dinner isn't.
I went running last night, well just procrastinating my projects, is a good procrastinating option.
Yesterday at uni, 30 mins late in the lecture, nothing much, went to have a chat with mobile lecturer, no iphone dev option.
hmmmmm,
might be going back to HK Mid Nov, still need to check to make sure.
arrr, wanna go back sooner, want to go Japan sooner too. ^^
Ski Ski Ski, want to buy GF1 before going to Japan, since it is a bit smaller.
Maybe I should start dating, without J I have too much love to give and I want some of it too.
Edit: cbb, I like being single atm.
but so much uni stuff to do…
hmmm, anyway, I must sleep, is 6am :p
or plan B is to force myself to stay up until 11pm tomorrow.
Hungry again ><

Photograpy 101 ii

Discamer: I am not a Pro. Just to share what I know so far. edit: And my English
Photography 101 part 2.
You don’t need a dslr or any other fancy camera to take good photo. They just offer more flexibility. The camera on your phone is very useful because it is always with you.
For a dslr camera or a camera with manual control, there is a 3 setting that needs to be understand first, other than this ( mostly ) is just your eyes and your subjects.
Changes to any of these changes the brightness of the image because more light is going in. (or more sensitive)
is all about balance of these settings depending on the situation.
Shutter speed.
The time the shutter “opens” to capture light
(assuming they had spin at the same speed, the shutter speed changed, the left one fast shutter speed, the right one slow shutter speed, that also means the Aperture or iso had changed, for the left one the Aperture will need to be wider to get the same amount of light in, the right one will need a small Aperture or it will be a very bight image (or just white) )
More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutter_speed
Aperture.
The size of the hole that lets light into the camera.
wide open – morel light in – shallow depth of field. Smaller F number eg. f/5.6 , f/2.8 , f / 1.4
narrow – less light in – larger range in focus. Larger F number eg. f/32
(same here S or iso would have changed for these 2 images, is all about balance)
More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperture
iso.
The sensitivity of the sensor or film.
for digital sensor, large iso means a noises image.
Lens,
there is 2 value that’s impotent for a lens.
Aperture and focal length “zoom”
White balance ( Color ),
What the human eye see as white is not the same as the camera,
we can see it as white but it turns out to be yellowish because of the color temperature (from light, sun, etc)
to correct this, there is white balance, most of the time the camera get it right, when its wrong, the color will mess up , however it can be corrected in photoshop (better in RAW mode)
To use them
Well for most cameras there are: (this is for nikon)
M anual - control everything
A perture - control the Aperture and +/- Exposure Compensation, S will be set by camera, calculated by the light meter and the Exposure Compensation Setting.
S hutter - control the Shutter and +/- Exposure Compensation, A will be set by camera, calculated by the light meter and the Exposure Compensation Setting.
P rogram – controls +/- Exposure Compensation, “AUTO” A and P or it have some pairs of A and S to choose from.
I use P for just everyday photo, S or A when I have the time to take a nice one. M when I have lots of time and wants to play a bit.
and use tripod !

Need to start on uni final assignments,
Yesterday:

Found out one of my dog in hk passed away because of old age earlier this year >.<, byebye mimi, I miss u. One of her son came back from James since he is working aboard.
Edit:
Random thought:
I consider Apes to be in the human family tree, so we are kind of relatives, so every human on earth(or else where) is relatively close family, well every living thing really, we share DNA.
Edit:
Must limit comfort food intake. Gained weight and have been eating lots of junk. I eat when I have stress, bit stress about uni stuff. Need to do something about it.
out for lunch, india curry again. yummy yum yum.
Edit: went kfc
Edit: Got Shoulder Message at Westfield, feeling better now.
Edit: Watched The big Bang Theory and fall asleep.
Sleepy, sleepy, sleepy

3am
Sunrise photo shoot fail, bb just called saying weather not good, bah, I think she is just lazy, and dun want to get out of her warm bed at 5 am. she is saying tomorrow, weather report says it will be be sunnier than today, hope she can get up. (edit: for the record it was her idea !! )
Then she asked if I will consider to have a girlfriend, she said her friend likes me,
arrr, I dun want a girlfriend or I kind of have someone in mind already, but there is issues there too, hmm,
relationship is too complicated, and last one was hurt.
and there is no rush to find a girl friend, lets get to know each other better first as friends.
well if I have a new girlfriend, I think it would be because I lost self control because I love her too much, and she will likely be one of my close friends.
but if she fall for someone else while we are just friends, I think I will get heartache.
bah, I shouldn’t think too much about girlfriend, I want to learn more stuff and better myself more and build everything necessary to provide the environment she deserves. Well if I find the right person, I think is fun to build it with her.
hummm,
5am
thinking about going to photo shoot by myself.
Edit: been there done that =]
Edit: added photos, no editing just fresh from camera.
7:30am
Edit: I made breakfast myself ^^
Edit: there is a look in her friend’s eye, which I didnt rilli understand, now I know what that means. =]
She is great, good girl and likes photography, just I dont want a girlfriend, sorry. There is only 1 person I will even consider right now, and I am stopping myself to even do that.
J called last night when i m trying to sleep, found her annoying, always tech support calls when I am trying to sleep
Note to self: dont fall for anyone atm atleast few weeks, i just stated my single life and i m enjoying it, well with bb most of the time and I have fun with her.
Edit: some editing on my iphone
I forgot to bring tripod > < ”
