Good times ahead.
If the video is true. 6400 iso still usable. that would really be one cool machine.
Oh yeah. imagine your wedding photographer can take photos while in the midst of shooting a video of you and your other half. cool huh.

Bebbs Review

Bebbs - Canon 5D Mark II review from StillMotion on Vimeo.

Been a really busy week even though i’m not at work. Courses. Helping out with brother with the new house. Certifications to take.

5 years ago, i just graduated and was looking for a job. Times flies.
What do you imagine yourself to be in 5 years time?

The moon was full but only after 2 days later the much anticipated announcement came in a manner most canon fans wasn’t expecting. Most would want something that beat the crap out of the dark side. The rest wanted the godly DSLR for the price of a cheap FF. Dreamers are we?

Well, it wasn’t made to compete with Nikon equivalent it seemed.
It was to be a landscape/wedding cam. So your photographer and videographer is all in one? haha my guess those brides out there excited what they are hearing. Cheap bargain you must be thinking.

Well it is a good camera for holidays actually. good exposed places , nice landscape and video to capture those interesting events.

So DSLRs will be equipped with videos in the future but was that an evolution? The dark side began the evolution in that case.

As for now i am reserving my final reviews for the 5d Mark II till i lay my hands on one alongside with the dark side FX d700.

if markII dun impress me, you may see me with one of this soon.

Life is getting a little mundune. Anybody with new gossips? lol.
Oh yeah realise SearchSG.org is no longer around.

Going for course for 2 weeks.
Hopefully i can clear 3 papers in 2 weeks. Wish me luck.

When a journal stops being updated, few would actually drop by.
so today is a good day to rant a little, change a new theme and perhaps some chaps may notice.

Life have been good since i last blogged.
Back at work, been given a new project to implement so it’s been pretty interesting.

I’m hoping to be certified to be MCSE and MCTS in exchange by Jan 09 so i gotta be a part-time student for the rest of this year. Well, for a start i’m a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist in Vista for now. haha Thon was wondering why in the hell must some one be certified in Vista? Just part of the MCSE modules and it will be good for those working in desktop support roles.
hmmm you must be yawning. IT talk dun go well with most people.

Today is Eve and Junyong wedding dinner and the food at Qian Xi wasn’t too bad afterall.
Well i kinda think other than the shark-fins, the food is pretty decent than most of the wedding banquets in the local hotels. Wish them all the best when they go back to Seattle in a week or so.

I’m still waiting for the moon to show more.
Don’t really wanna join the dark side even though i got no preferences for brands.
Taking whatever that provides the best for my buck.
Some financial forecast (my bank) tells me the earliest time to have a new body is end Dec 08.

After that i must find time for the hobby.
After all in July 09, i will be heading for another good holiday.

Tadaaa. I’m going to knock out.

Sigh…
It’s 2008… I’m kinda disappointed.

Caught Akeelah & The Bee on the movie channel on SH.

It set me thinking when Dr Larabee asked Akeelah to read out a quote that was hanging on the wall.

Akeelah: [quoting Marianne Williamson] Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
Dr. Larabee: Does that mean anything to you?
Akeelah: I don’t know.
Dr. Larabee: It’s written in plain English. What does it mean?
Akeelah: That I’m not supposed to be afraid?
Dr. Larabee: Afraid of what?
Akeelah: Afraid of… me?

The original quote was actually by Marianne Williamson from her book A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others

We need a little spiritual healing at times don’t we?

hus·band

[Middle English huseband, from Old English hsbnda, from Old Norse hsbndi : hs, house + bndi, bandi, householder, present participle of ba, to dwell; see bheu- in Indo-European roots.]
Word History: The English word husband, even though it is a basic kinship term, is not a native English word. It comes ultimately from the Old Norse word hsbndi, meaning “master of a house,” which was borrowed into Old English as hsbnda. The second element in hsbndi, bndi, means “a man who has land and stock” and comes from the Old Norse verb ba, meaning “to live, dwell, have a household.” The master of the house was usually a spouse as well, of course, and it would seem that the main modern sense of husband arises from this overlap. When the Norsemen settled in Anglo-Saxon England, they would often take Anglo-Saxon women as their wives; it was then natural to refer to the husband using the Norse word for the concept, and to refer to the wife with her Anglo-Saxon (Old English) designation, wf, “woman, wife” (Modern English wife). Interestingly, Old English did have a feminine word related to Old Norse hsbndi that meant “mistress of a house,” namely, hsbonde. Had this word survived into Modern English, it would have sounded identical to husbandsurely leading to ambiguities.

wife

O.E. wif “woman,” from P.Gmc. *wiban (cf. O.S., O.Fris. wif, O.N. vif, Dan., Swed. viv, M.Du., Du. wijf, O.H.G. wib, Ger. Weib), of unknown origin. The modern sense of “female spouse” began as a specialized sense in O.E.; the general sense of “woman” is preserved in midwife, old wives’ tale, etc. M.E. sense of “mistress of a household” survives in housewife; and later restricted sense of “tradeswoman of humble rank” in fishwife. Du. wijf now means, in slang, “girl, babe,” having softened somewhat from earlier sense of “bitch.” Wife-swapping is attested from 1959.

Indeed it is quite a sight… better if i can knock down the two block in front of me.
Life have been good to me. Got a permanent conversion at work, got a well-deserved payrise too.

2007 is coming to an end… It will be a joyous year end i’m sure. I’m lookin to my short break from work and anticipate the start of a brand new year.
Will be probably going korea next year, so will hopefully get some new lens.

Time passes in a instant, everybody all grown up and moving ahead.
I do miss the time in SP and uni times in aussie.

Alrighty, i gotta sleep… enuff of the boring talk.

Hi Guys,

I don’t blog anymore as you might all know. So it’s surprising to see me drop a note after a long period of disappearance. I never get things done especially they are low at the accumulated priority list that i own.

For those who are concerned of my well-being, i am alive and kicking. Busy with renovations and a new life. and most recent some self-improvement which i find a torture. My braincells haven’t been dying much and that explains why i’m pretty stagnant at this point of my life.

As i grow older, i cherish ties much more and i pay more attention to my aged parents who are no longer as healthy and fit. (sad to say). It’s heart-wrenching to come in terms with life & death and one day we all have to part with our loved ones. We may hate our parents for a moment in our life but believe me when the end draws nearer, you hate to part.

Occasionally I am in amazement of my friends who held strong (or at least try to) when their loved ones part apart from them. I dread that day and sometimes just wish time will stall; at that very split second.

Sometimes we will yell at one another but one fine day when we reflect upon our actions, was it purely others’ fault? Or do we actually sense our speech of tone harsher than we believe they are. I never like lashing out at people senselessly; i find it plain rude. The world would be a better place if people were to say “Please” or “Do you mind…” more often than the “oei” or terms like “stupid”.

It’s pretty busy at work for the whole of this week and the next.
I should start tanning soon… getting too fair that i can audition in Ghost Part 3.
Alright. another day awaits.

Enjoy the upcoming holiday. =D
I leave you with this song.

I believe i had a very long hiatus. You are pretty lucky to be hearing from me again.

Anyway my sis got married last weekend.

Looking gorgeous for the big event.
