Postcard

Postcard

Send me a postcard!

And Ramadhan is back. A month when muslim all around the world fast. Want more info on Ramadhan and fasting? Search it for yourself! Hehehe It's been about a week already. And I'm trying my best to manipulated this fasting month trying to lose some weight. Doing well. Started off with 78kg (whats with the grin?!) and now I'm 76kg. If I can keep up the good work, I might shed another 6kg or so before Raya! Actually it's been boring this past few days. Nothing to do. Still polishing my resume. Will try to look for jobs next week.

Meanwhile, I'm building my website. Hopefully it will be done by a month or two. Whats in it? Well, I'll put up my photograph, print ad and all work in a portfolio style.

Hey, just got this stupid idea. From the sitemeter, I know there's visitor at my site. Why don't you guys, no matter where you are, send me a postcard. Write something or nothing at all. I'll post it up everytime I receive one. I'm refering to snail mail postcard. I'll also reply every each postcard.

Come on, this would be fun, I guess. Just don't forget to write your address. Here is my add:

Everybody knows!

Tomorrow is the day for the two Malaysian idol contestant. Nothing much to comment. Malaysian has shown that we’re good voters. Nevermind who wins tomorrow, we’ll have another star in the making. Dina and Jac can sure sing. They have the attitude. And they have the will to win. It’s gonna be tough for me to choose the winner. So good luck!

In a month we’re also gonna see another much anticipated result. Who’s gonna be the next Prez of the United States? With the heats going up day by day, Bush is still today, according to poll leading Kerry. I just can’t understand what the Americans sees in Bush? One thing I know, is that Bush is smarter than he is credited for. Hahaha, I’m not kidding. Read on.

Bush is an opportunist. An imperialist egotistical opportunist. A smart one at it too. For a Muslim, I knew something bad would happen when I saw the WTC felt down crushing. There’s the reason. Attack Afghanistan to track down Osama who until today is nowhere to be found. (For all we know he’s in Texas hehehe) While we’re at that why don’t we attack Iraq? Dad says they’re up to no good. By the way, they do have oil; oh I mean WMD don’t they?

There’s other sorta lies or “misleading” incident even in the United States herself. What the people want now is the truth! While Bush is denying all the accusations, he still stands firm on all decision he made. When will the people realize that Bush will never admit his fault? It’s not profitable for him. If he loses, then he will be jotted down in the book of history as a bloody liar and worst Prez America has ever had. If he win’s, which is not impossible, he will proud to brag that he is man with a firm stand. Why should he tell you the truth? Why would you ask for the truth? You damn know the truth!

There is no WMD in Iraq, but there’s for sure oil there. Saddam who hides in a rat hole was never a threat. He declared victory in Iraq, yet today, over 400 soldier died. Terrorist starts war, so what should we call Bush when he attacked Iraq? Bush is not protecting America from terrorist, he is asking for more attacks! He’s making more enemy than allies. While at it, he’s also making more money. Man, 1 more term and he’ll be richer than Bill Gate’s. Just think.

To makes things easier, why don’t the other countries, combine power, and let’s attack America instead. Bush have WMD, he might, and would use it to any country. Bush is a threat to peace! Give the White House a 30 days warning to hand over Bush (we’ll attack on the 15th day), we trial him and let America vote for a new Prez. Now wouldn’t that be great to see. (Luckily I can’t be arrest under the Patriot act hehehe)

No, I’m not for Kerry. Everybody in the world just want someone else rather than Bush. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to see that Bush is not well liked. But I’m not putting much hope. I did the same thing an applauded when Gore lost years back. Now see what happen?

There's no use asking him to admit his lies. Everybody knows what he did.

New snapshots in progress

Tomorrow, or I guess its this morning, Shah Alam will again host the National Fire Fighters day. From last years experience, even though I wasnt prepared for what to expect, the show was great. The colours, fire engine, people and gimmick was awesome. Hope for the same experience this year. Wait up for the project outcome!

My very own solo exhibition

I love photography. It's a passion. It's wonderful to know that using a blog I can exhibit my work online. It's even better than doing an exhibition at an art gallery, here, the whole world can see it!



Ramadhan is near, fasting month for the Muslims. It's a month full of picture oppurtinity. That would be my next project, in a week or so. In the mean time I'll be busy archiving all my past project and posting it here!

Project _ Zoo-O-Rama

Taken on a personal project at the National Zoo. I wanted to take pictures of all the animals in the zoo, but the weather wasn't good. The lighting was worst, as it was about to rain that evening. Only these birds set are worth a look at.

What a night! I never thought advertising would be this happening. I know it's fun, but this is way out of my league. The people, the ceremony, the glitz and glamour.

There I was seating alone with all this other students from Lim Kok Wing, The One and IACT. Talking to some new friends, Roy and Ethen, I was asked the first ever hard to answer question. What was I doing there? All of them are taking graphic designs etc. All of them are from the creative side and I'm the only who study Media Planning and Advertising Management. I don't even study drawing in UiTM.

And all I got from an experience of a lifetime is a Special Merit Award. In layman eyes its nothing, but for the about 300 students who entered the contest, its an achievement to cherish. Can't say that I'm not frustrated, but I lost to the better team. Congrats Roi and Ethen!

Thinking about it again, I guess somewhere inside me, I want to be a good practitioner to be. I want to know how to take care of an account and be creative too. I hope it's an advantage for me. With the world going fast forward, multitasking is the way.
