Thai Cookout

Saturday morning cookouts in college...

Been joining the
Thai-Lahu guys...

Lahu-styled (I think!) Chicken curry, stir fried onions, parsley (yum)

And as a side dish, there's this eclectic Asian mix of barbecued ladyfingers, charred onions and garlic, mashed with dried, pounded chilli, and of course parsley!

The workings of 2 Authentic Thai-Lahus, 1 Aussie, and 1 culturally confused Singaporean...
It has a 3 fireballs rating =) Heeheex.

Perfect Love

Homework =)

Declining/Parsing 1 John 1:1-2:6,

This is from 2:5, where the little phrase reads "the love of God has been perfected" literally...

Refers to the condition where if a man keeps the Word of God, he would be counted complete, and that is a completeness in the Love of God, where his life shows forth God's Love, the agape, sacrificial, unconditional love =)

It's been a rainy day, but well, I'm kind of too lethargic to head out and look for water droplets to shoot, so its back to macro at the desk, and indoors...

Breaking Fast

If there's one thing that I'll never grow tired of munching on, its cereal-

I'm inclined towards the "basic" varieties, Kellogg's Special K has always been a favourite, along with Marks & Spencer's and Post's.
There's nothing more fun than working with basic cereal and low-fat milk, and mixing in condiments and little bits of whatever I can find, from chocolate chips, cubed wafers, diced fruits, to shredded coconut...

and as you might have guessed, Irish Cream blends in surprisingly well =))

Anticipation

This semester's studies have proven to be far tougher than expected...

Well, I've been shooting very little as of late, I'm trying hard not to complain, but Singapore has this certain environment where it takes a fair bit of creativity and effort to bring art out of the land...

Thank God for an upgrade to a 30D, which I've hardly got a chance to fiddle around with to get used to...
I'm looking forward to the year end, where the 2 weeks in Thailand will grant me some time to do more extensive walkabouts, which has always been a brilliant time to relax a little, and work on the brighter side of the gray matter within this tiny skull...

I think since I'm confined largely to my studies and room... I'll try my utmost to bring up little bits of my daily life...


Library Cards!

I've been swotting away, and that requires frequent visits to the college library, and all night marathon stayovers in them...
I think these library cards are interesting, one would hardly have these around in today's age of barcode scanners and plastic gizmos...
We still work on a system of library cards, where all our books have little "borrower" cards in them to record the dates... Its kind of archaic and old-world... but well, in a library where books and works average back to the 1800s... what's new? =)

I'll try to shoot at least one piece every other day or so... =)

I've been writing more these days, on the journal proper...
