Fotanian

Date: 17 Jan 2010

Venue: Fotanian

 

No update, no update, yes update!  Finally!

 

No more shooting still, don’t have time for it yet, a shame.  Anyway.  Was invited to Fotanian on 17 Jan :)  The weather was so beautiful, it felt just like summer!  (Actually it felt like summer as well, today, the weather was just brilliant!  It revived up my dying soul!!!!)

 

Thanks to Jan, I had a great time :D

 

(No more nonsense, just pictures - all pictures taken with my Nikon DC)

Very cheerful.

 

Had ‘so much exercise’ that day, walking countless stairs.  I didn’t really talk much but I couldn’t help smiling to myself too often that day because I was too joyful.  It was a very sweet feeling. 

 

…I just hope my new friend didn’t think I was such a bore!  I had such a beautiful time that day!

What’s keeping me busy?

Kindle

My Kindle!  Definitely no glare (and it’s better than owning iPad in my opinion)!

 

Looking forward to February! :D
