holga 135bc review

I bought my Holga 135bc (bc stands for black corners) a couple of months back. i was contemplating between the 120 and 135 but later settled on the 135 because not all shops develop 120mm films.

I've used up 2 rolls of film so far, the first one FujiChrome Sensia 200 Slide Film 35mm (Expired) and my second roll, the Official Lomography International Redscale 35mm Film (Fresh). There is an ongoing roll which I am using now, a Kodak film i bought straight from the photo shop.
i was lost and completely new to film cameras. The first camera i used was already digital. I did read up online for tips and how to use. But it came with a pretty useful manual on how to load film, basic functions and so on.
When my holga arrived, i was suprised at how light it was. It was basically like a toy camera made out of plastic. Even after i loaded in the film, i was doubting its capability of capturing pictures. lol
So i got in my first 2 rolls of pictures the other day. And to my horror as i expected, my second roll of film, the red scale on was empty. But as i examined it, there were a few shadows in the developed film, so i have no clue what went wrong.
But here are a few pictures from my first roll, and i am so pleased with the results!

pictures taken at my home in Malacca.

i purchased my camera at rofl camera, they are really nice and provide feedback too!

The Notebook

Summer romances begin for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done, they have one thing in common. They're shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, fleeting glimpse of eternity, and in a flash they're gone.

"If you're a bird I'm a bird"

Young Noah: It's not about following your heart and it's not about keeping your promises. It's about security.
Young Allie: What's that supposed to mean?
Young Noah: [yelling] Money. He's got a lot of money!
Young Allie: You smug bastard. I hate you for saying that.
Young Noah: You're bored Allie. You're bored and you know it. You wouldn't be here if there wasn't something missing.
Young Allie: You arrogant son of a bitch.
Young Noah: Would you just stay with me?
Young Allie: Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fightin'
Young Noah: Well that's what we do, we fight... You tell me when I am being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you are a pain in the ass. Which you are, 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a 2 second rebound rate, then you're back doing the next pain-in-the-ass thing.
Young Allie: So what?
Young Noah: So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. We're gonna have to work at this every day, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, for ever, you and me, every day. Will you do something for me, please? Just picture your life for me? 30 years from now, 40 years from now? What's it look like? If it's with him, go. Go! I lost you once, I think I can do it again. If I thought that's what you really wanted. But don't you take the easy way out.
Young Allie: What easy way? There is no easy way, no matter what I do, somebody gets hurt.
Young Noah: Would you stop thinking about what everyone wants? Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do YOU want? What do you WANT?

i like my eggs well done, but this is so pretty that ill do it for you

easy and realistic ways to lose weight

i've been staying in kl for near to four months, and let's say that i have not only put on weight, but i have also been eating so unhealthily, i am ashamed of my eating habits.

so these are some pointers i found online which are simple and realistic ways to lose weight and eat healthy.

1. After breakfast, make water your primary drink.
Definitely a can do for me as i don't really like sweetened drinks or soda.

2. Eat five or six small meals or snacks a day instead of three large meals. A 1999 South African study found that when men ate parts of their morning meal at intervals over five hours, they consumed almost 30 percent fewer calories at lunch than when they ate a single breakfast.

3. Put out a vegetable platter.

4. Eat cereal for breakfast five days a week. Studies find that people who eat cereal for breakfast every day are significantly less likely to be obese and have diabetes than those who don't. Of course, that doesn't mean reaching for the Cap'n Crunch. Instead, pour out a high-fiber, low-sugar cereal like Total or Grape Nuts.

*means no honey stars or coco crunch ;-(

5.Substitute a handful of almonds in place of a sugary snack. A study from the City of Hope National Medical Center found that overweight people who ate a moderate-fat diet containing almonds lost more weight than a control group that didn't eat nuts. Any nut will do.

*i love nuts!

6. Stock your refrigerator with low-fat yogurt. A University of Tennessee study found that people who cut 500 calories a day and ate yogurt three times a day for 12 weeks lost more weight and body fat than a group that only cut the calories.

7. Brush your teeth after every meal, especially after dinner. That clean, minty freshness will serve as a cue to your body and brain that mealtime is over.

*! very true, and i would always be too lazy to brush my teeth again and thus not eat.

8. Pack nutritious snacks. Snacking once or twice a day helps stave off hunger and keeps your metabolism stoked, but healthy snacks can be pretty darn hard to come by when you're on the go.

Have to pack up baby carrots or your own trail mix made with nuts, raisins, seeds, and dried fruit.

hopefully i will start eating healthy and hopefully lose some weight!

of creepy cab rides

Yesterday, we had to rush to Celcom, KL to submit our tender, and despite the rain and massive traffic jam, we made it.

Then my colleague (suan) and i had to hail a cab to get back to Cyberjaya. Before our cab ride, suan was telling me that she's scared of cab drivers after the various incidents that we read in news regarding girls getting molested, or even worst raped and killed.

but i am here writing so you probably know that i am safe and sound.

BUT BUT, on the way back to cyberjaya right, the driver suddenly went into a housing area, and eventually our cab came to a dead end.

THEN I FREAKED OUT! in my head was like im gonna die this is how i am gonna die, why didn't i prepare the *note of the last things i wanna say. (*about the note, i've always wanted to prepare a goodbye note, and how i wanted to be cremated and my ashes to be poured at certain places)

So i type down the taxi number plate and message my brother, "XXX XXX, just in case i dont make it back alife". I also was on the call with Jon, and he could hear from the tone of my voice i was afraid, and he got worried when he knew i was in a housing area.

But anyways, the taxi driver was just trying to find a short cut to pass through the traffic jam, and we reached safe and sound.

the end.

i think too much, but seriously cab rides are creepy right?
