we need to talk

"babe we need to talk. esok k."

Puzzled and concerned, I texted back saying I'm ok to talk whenever.

She rang me. My immediate reaction was -- "Are you ok? What's wrong?"

And her answer was

.

.

"When did Izzie sleep with George? But they're best friends! This cannot happen..."

.

.

.

Grey's Anatomy.

*sigh*

Cheers PO.

And no, I'm not going to tell you what happens in the end. Or in between, for that matter :p

chocpot's *little* hang-ups

One’s pet peeves may seem unfounded to others. Whatever it is, these are some of mine in no particular order:

1. Toothache – currently experiencing it :(

2. Keeping something, and not being able to find it later when needed.

3. Remembering a face/lyrics/scene, but not the name/song/movie.

4. When your skin breaks out and people assume you haven’t been cleansing properly. Ever heard of hormones/stress/food intake/oil glands going beserk?

5. Potholes that go unfixed for a long time.

6. Drivers who apparently cannot grasp the whole oh-so-complex concept of pedestrian crossing -- morons!

7. When a woman wears tight butt-hugging stretchy work-out trousers with underwear that is too tight -- because she looks like she has 4 butt-cheeks. One word. Ghastly.

8. People who spit in public (footballers during matches are excluded because they can’t run to the loo each time they want to do that, eh?)

9. People/kids who are noisy/who find it amusing to kick your seat in the cinema and their parents/guardians say nothing to stop the kids.

10. When you attempt raising money for an injured stray cat and get asked whether you secretly wish to be saviour of all stray animals. Then they proceed to comment that the money raised is better saved towards a holiday for yourself -- Nobody’s forcing you to contribute, fool.

11. Not nice two-faced people who add fuel to fire.

12. Monkeys at airasia boarding “queue”. This you have to experience in order to understand :)

13. Airasia’s new express boarding, i.e. you’re allowed to board first for a fee. And yes, even the elderly or those with toddlers will have to “queue” with the monkeys if they don't pay this express boarding fee. What ever happened to simple courtesy and understanding? We have to pay for it, now?

Do we share any of the above annoyances?

slowly by slow

Much to the annoyance to a number of people, I have managed to go through the whole of August by only posting photos. Some though forwarded me links to photoblogs and The Wood Dragon decided to enlighten me with "light reading" and its friends whom I'm not familiar with, read below --

"You have a number of pics that have dark areas and bright areas… finding the right exposure to capture those types of pictures is tricky. If you take your light reading on too dark an object, then your pic will turn out over exposed (glare, or maybe even washout in the brighter bits). Conversely, if you take your light reading on too bright an object, you will lose the details in the darker part of your composition. All that you will learn to balance/compensate as you take more and more photos."


Was I supposed to have made sense out of that? I don't even know what light reading is, probably is stupid of me, but I don't know jack.


Perhaps in time, but not with my phone cam, eh?


Whatever.
