Changing sights, changing scenes

..shh..

..shh..
Ahh, this was taken right after the locksmith left. The awesome day where we paid $60 to get into our house after a morning run. It was my fault! I took the wrong key.

Lizards don’t do so well in our home

My last photo of Ada, we were about to jump into a cab and I quickly snapped this one

It’s been a little quiet here and I think about it everyday. I’m kinda dealing with a shift in me, I know it’s there and taking place, I just haven’t been able to adapt so well. But it’s all good, great actually. I only need to get used to the new voices I hear in my head.

Are there question marks above your heads right now? Haha, well for example, I really don’t feel like picking up my digital SLR and shooting with it. And I kinda want to be stubborn and shoot purely on film. Even if it’ll take me a month to finish a roll and leave me with no material for my blog, I still want to. And if that’s not enough, I want to shoot only when there’s awesome sunlight to work with. Which is really hard considering how nocturnal I am. Yeah… shite like that is stirring in my head.

This is The xx playing at The Esplanade on Sunday. Can’t say enough THANK YOUs to Young for turning me on to their music! I’ve been youtube-ing the band all day. And it was so nice to see my friends on Sunday too, have I been home that long?

Good Tuesday, wherever you are and happy dust for each and everyone of you.

Seeing a show

Early, good morning

Early, good morning

I try real hard to be a morning person, to keep at the routine but from the sounds of it, yeah, I don’t do it so well. I even think I’m more prone to be awake at 8AM only because I haven’t slept the night before. Having said that, these two photos are rare because I took them when the first ray of sunlight came in through my kitchen windows. On top of that, I did sleep the night before!

Going to see The xx play tonight, very antsypants about it.

A kite has taken over our lives

Yes. We spend way too many afternoons and evenings at the park now. I’m sunburnt and sporting an ugly tanline cos I had my sunnies on. Apart from that, I wish the park is bigger cos it seems a lot of people like flying kites too, and playing Ultimate Frisbee and soccer and playing fetch with their dogs and there’s simply not enough space for everyone. Half the time strings get tangled and oh, I neglected our kite and it got stuck in a tree for awhile, did I mention I suck at it?

The photos are from two different days, kite-flying-days.

We met this older guy who’s pretty knowledgeable about kites and he taught us that this is called the delta shape and also the easiest type to fly.

Farewell Ada

farewell Ada

I know this isn’t a stunning photo or whatever but this afternoon, I packed a box and sent Ada off. She’s headed to London. And this evening, I collected my roll of film and saw this photo, my heart kinda sank and jumped out at the same time, if that’s even possible! I forgot I took this, and thinking back now, I’m pretty sure I took this photo unintentionally too. Subconscious mind, probably.

{I knew a week before I took the photo that she’s due in London. I checked my emails and iCal to doublecheck.}

I’ll be back tomorrow with some photos from the newly developed roll. I thought Ada deserved a post of her own today.
