small hint

here's a video i found (with the help of a friend) on youtube :)

it's too damn amazing, coincidentally it's my all-time favorite 80s song..it's the best!

it just brightened my day (night, actually..) and mood :)

a small hint that tomorrow will be a better day.

can't wait.

peace + love,

Into the Woods. . .

Finally! I've taken the time I have to put just a few of my forest trip photos here :)

With my trusty Sony Cybershot (DSC T-2) baby.. and yes, no dslr (or slr, for that matter) yet..

Oh, well, patience is virtue :) and also maybe if I worked then I could save up for one.

The lake where me and the boys saw a huge-ass Arapaima!

This was what we saw (inside the forest,somewhere..) when we looked up.

I just love the shapes and the spaces in between.

Ah, nature.

(This was an awesomely poor attempt to capture it, my apologies)

On the right is a Bamboo plant which is really, really big (although it isn't portrayed as such here, sorry)

This 'trip' was definitely memorable-worthy. We got lost after walking for about 3 hours.. and luckily (Thank God) there was a fence ( yup, apparently we walked across the whole forest) and Joachim managed to break it (it's not really legal..) and I was just happy we were saved!

We ended up at the end of the forest and actually had to take a cab back to the starting point because it was just too far! And maybe also because we were drained from all the walking. And leeches! Aaaaagghh!

But all in all it was great fun with great company :) Awesome!

A New Day

Hello Tuesday!

News Flash: I have just decided to take up photography! It's so exciting, although I don't have my own DSLR yet..BUT - I'm so lucky because my good friend Arvind (Thampy) had his old SLR lying around (it's a film SLR btw - even more exciting! - Canon EOS 300v), so I'm loaning it from him for now (shameless..)

Arv's is in black though - cooler :)

and hopefully I will get it up and running by Wednesday because I will be too busy today, with all the graduation recitals going on..(about 6 of them!)

oh gosh I'm so excited..but I am really strapped for cash right now..it sucks so badly! ughh

Also, I haven't really learnt or read up on photography (e.g. the basics) just relying on pointers by my two favourite boys :) but don't worry I will kick my own ass to start reading up...soon..

.Joachim.

.Arvind.

(No, I did not take these photos.. haha..please check them out tho)

Peace n Love,
