I still refuse to believe.

" You know its pretty funny how people say that games are anti-social as i see it i talk to more people in 1 hour of playing an online game than i do in a whole week. And in fact the people that i do talk to in a week would mostly be the same people therefore playing an online game is more social as you not only talk to lots of people but people of different nationalities.

Now i'm not saying you should substitute games for real life but for some of us gamers have you ever thought that you can talk really well and easily on the internet:[games, msn] but when it comes to real life we're not as talkative? Perhaps its because there is no fear in saying things cos the people we are talking to do not actually know the real us. Imagine going up to a stranger in real life n saying watsup, we just wouldn't do it but online we can.

Another thing i was thinking was that wat actually drives people to play online games at such lengths and time. Online games are one huge international competition which is only known to a particuliar community eg. Hb pro community which could be seen similiarly to your local neighbourhood or a club. Now everyone wants to be the best and therefore spends time on finding items, killing people and constantly changing their stats in order to find that extra edge. And after a few months of playing eventhough people might not enjoy playing anymore they continue to in order to become that number one and even after they have become number one they need to keep there spot and arn't going to leave the server that they have spent so much time on.
BUT
What actually makes people start playing online games. Too much free time, peer pressure from friends, not having any other interests/hobbies, the desire to achieve something that they cant in real life or even as just a time passer. But similiar to smoking the simple 1 ciggarette 1 hour becomes 3 ciggarettes 3 hours and once we start playing for weeks on end we start relying on it to fill up all our time. But how much is too much? I personally dont see the harm in coming bak from work and playing the rest of the day but then i thought what am i actually doing for so many hours...just staring at a screen and pressing some buttons once in a while. Theres got to be more to it, and i found out that playing games are equal to a dose of speed/cocaine, thats why i nvr really feel tired waking up early to play or staying up late to play.

Anyways i will probably game the rest of my life till i die n i jus wrote dis cos i'm bored at class...

Now yes, I've realized how many readers I've lost since I stopped blogging for a while this year. I've taken too many stops and breaks here and there, thus now I am trying to regain my popularity by writing as often as I can while filling it up with my works in photography. Compared to last year's 149 posts, 2008's 93... this year is a complete mess and failure. =S


Last week, myself, Hoe and Jin Fan walked to the top of the Tanjung Lumpur bridge at 10PM to capture the night lights of Kuantan.


I know, that's not the best place to take a picture of Kuantan anyway because you only get to see a small portion of this town. But I suppose it's not that bad, given the fact that it's pretty late already to go anywhere bizarre.


It is also one of my first time taking night shots using a tripod. Took me about two minutes to complete every shot though, one of the few reasons why Sony cameras suck in processing high-shutter-speed taken photos.






Note: All these photos below are UNEDITED. The colors that vary in every photo are based on the settings I changed in my camera. Apart from the frame and my name applied in it, nothing else is changed.

A change of topic; tomorrow will be my Kuantan League debut for me.


Personally, I do not aim for victory... but a result that's a fair to my expectations and my team's needs.

I sure have came a long way.

"..Mungkin saja kau bukan yang dulu lagi
Mungkin saja rasa itu telah pergi

Dan mungkin bila nanti kita kan bertemu lagi
Satu pintaku jangan kau cuba tanyakan kembali
Rasa yang kutinggal mati
Seperti hari kemarin saat semua disini..."

Talk to me, like you've always have.
