nostalgia

the old blurification
the old photogalleria

8.9.02

spent most part of the day with myself. some two hours or so soliloquising and smelling newater at marina promenade. ended the day with some night photography over at bugis [village], by then pretty uninhabited with fat tourists possessing terribly condescending accents. managed to catch this ge tai performance at this indoor/outdoor thai pub. cheekopeks looked at me like a sick perv who 'does it in the darkroom'. supposedly a good thing i didn't meet ana at marina today. wasn't sure at all if i might ruin her day.

i'm actually content and feeling much better than ever so far this week. enjoyed interacting with no more than 2 persons at the same time. especially loved the fact that i was trigger happy without having to remember that the rest of the group's with you, having to stand stupidly while the photographer meddles with the camera settings.
i feel bossy + over-resolute in situations such as those.

next 3 pictures are what rich + i developed during black/white photog recently. i am *so* going to do that elective come year 2.


(a 'photogram' or whatever you call them. dr rain week wanted us to understand the physics of light-on-sensitive paper. couldn't really find anything else on ourselves. fingers come in handy at times of uncertainty.)


(shot along s'pore river. we love that shadow to bits.)


(our proposed shot to be sent to the Tourism Board. how fitting it is that you'd find a postcard template on the underside of the photographic paper..)


i'm not particularly into dumping chunks of poetry and lyrics into my journals.
oh well.
the following few lines are from one of queen's songs. it pretty much describes whatever is screwing my mind now.

so come and get me, let me
get in that sinking feeling
that says my heart is on an all time low
so don't expect me
to behave perfectly
and wear that sunny smile
my guess is i'm in for a cloudy and overcast
don't try and stop me
'cause i'm heading for that stormy weather soon
i'm causing a mild sensation
with this new occupation
i'm permanently glued
to this extraordinary mood, so now move over
and let me take over
with my melancholy blues.



many thanks to those who were sincerely supportive during my days of PMS. bear with me for a few more days, and the karma police would come with rewards aplenty. you know who you are ;)

cheers.
