Counting the days to my 1st anniversary

Now, I am counting the days to my 1st Wedding Anniversary and this time, will take the opportunity to take photographs ;p Hee hee, get to kill two birds with one stone, celebrate with hubby and snap snap away with my newly acquired digital camera and get familiarised before my Phuket trip end of the month.

Will post the pictures as soon as I can ... most likely as early as next week ;)

My first Digicam

Last Sunday, went with Ann to purchase my very own digital camera. The model I bought is Cyber-shot® DSC - H7/B and it fulfilled my criteria of clear indoor pictures without using flash (i.e. for places that prohibits the use of camera flash) & able to edit and add effects, 15X optical zoom etc ... Will post pictures taken with this new "baby" as soon as I can ;) Stay tuned to see possible 'work of art' from this amateur photographer!

Anime Craze Part 2

Remembered blogging about Byousoku 5CM a few months back and I have recently watched the entire movie. My verdict - absolutely love it ... but from a man's point of view, a bit slow moving though overall he admitted the graphic's very good.

Now, the Naruto series getting interesting ;) - Sakura have grown tremendously in terms of strength and medic skills, so much so, Sand shinobis (Chiyobaa-sama) ackowledged her to be strong and has potential to surpass Tsunade.

If you are following the manga closely, you will find out a surprising fact i.e. Naruto's Yondaime's child(maybe not so surprising i.e. since my hubby and I have been speculating this possibility for ages) ;p

Any avid Kakasaku fan fiction readers out there? If you are, drop by this link (loads of Kakashi and Sakura stories - amongst my favourites are those written by leafygirl ).

Happy day

Today will be a happy day, hubby will be home by tonight after being away for 2 weeks on business ;) Yesterday, I spent the whole day lazing around, chatting and watching "Lady First" ( a taiwanese talk show on Youtube) and basically had a relaxing day. Today, had to buck up and complete all the tasks & chores pilled up (I love the feel of squeaky clean floor - anyone have the same clean floor syndrome?) and now I'm finally free again to blog and surf the web ;p

Guess I will go back to watching more of the taiwanese talk show - it's great if you understand mandarin, the topics ranges from tips for hair care/styling, facial care/make up, dressing, shoes and all that you need to know to look beautiful ... a warning though, you may end up as addicted as I am lol ...

Lifelong learning

Last Fri & Sat, I've attended another 2-days training as I am someone who believes in learning more about self and continuously learn new skills. After spending the 2-days, unfortunately, personally I do not see much take away value. The principles were really simple and it is something common i.e. in which all of us may already know. One of it is to have a positive mindset - if there are things that you dislike, fear, dread, visualise a happy moment and use it to dispel the earlier instance of dislike, fear, dread etc. Well, let me put it this way, even if I do that little excercise constantly, it would not be take away/negate my fear - let's say fear of heights. Still not able to picture myself abscaling nor bungee jumping off anytime in the future. Another point in which I disagree would be - be realistic & do not aim too high. Well, here you are telling us to have positive thinking and our lives are our own to direct, if movie directors do not aim high - I do not think we'll be able to witness the brilliance in which all time favourites like LOTR when it was brought to audiences on the silver screen. Of course, I do agree that we have to have some degree of realism - like, I am not going to be the one building the next highest building in the world. Firstly, I am not an engineer by training and this will not work out as I do not know anything about constuction. But hey on the otherhand, if I do make it big next time, I may be the one funding such a project - dreams though but they're mine to keep.

It is inevitable, in life there are rollercoaster rides - with turns, uphill climb, some good trainings in which I believe in and some that will just register as part of my training hours. And the above is not the main purpose of the training, sigh, personally, the techniques taught for the actual topic will be a challenge to apply in real life situations.
