Camera day-out

Amidst blocks exams, I took some time off for a jog with ... my camera. I really jogged k. My muscles are still fatigue from the jog though it has been 2 days already *yala. long time never do vigorous exercise*


This is my SkySky!..
Can you spot the WWF-Panda sticker? My trademark in Manipal k (awareness for all the wrong reason.. hoho.. be aware of ME) .. Beside the WWF sticker is "A student for Free Tibet sticker". By the way, I've informed my mum about my scooter, like only yesterday! Wahaha. I've decided to share with her my adventures with Sky2 *truth is mua's gonna go broke.. need $$ from home* My mum is quite liberal actually. She worries and nags like all mums do bout my safety since the parent's have seen the road condition in India (potholes and cows come in a package) and the Indian drivers mentality on road but in the end she allows it. Then, comes the ever cute dad who worries 10x more than mum with more negative imaginations ( can work for JPJ on anti-kemalangan kempen) but instead of advising me, he chose to nag my mum who in return, flared up at him and told him to directly talk to me.

Mum to dad: She'll be careful... etc etc. Only within the campus compund.. etc etc *more good words for me*
Dad : Dangerous la.. negative negative negative.. Got license meh? -ve -ve -ve..You know I never encourage our "kids" O.o to drive 2 wheelers? etc etc
Mum : No point you nag me rite? Go talk to your daughter la.
Dad : You talk la. More -ve -ve -ve remarks
Mum : You nag somemore, next time got anything, she's not gonna inform us.
Dad : Huh? Like that a.. hmm.. then tell her be careful ya.
Mum : Hahah. By the way, your daughter is NOT asking your permission to buy a scooter you know? She's informing you, she has one.

By this time, I was laughing so hard!.. My dad is so cute. I can't believe he's "scared" of me. Hohoho.

Dad added : Luckily she's coming home next year. Don't have to ride the scooter for so long



View like this makes all problems seem tiny and puny.. and it's rare nowadays to get a good weather *rainy season lo*.


River, sky, hills, greenery, colorful birds, and sea (straight ahead, seen occasionally when the sunray peeps through the clouds, shining directly on the sea)... like a scene from Chinese poetry, in Indian version. I remember during the first few months here in Manipal, Alicia and I used to come to this place and screamed our hearts out. The stress, loneliness, boredom, for fun etc , gone with the wind, hopefully carried all the way to home.. It's really therapeutic in a way. The local Indians, affectionately known as tempes, would hurriedly move away, afraid of the mad screaming women.


I like the colour of this photo. Different hues of blue with a little remnant of the sunlight in the background... I have to say, Endpoint is one of my favourite places in Manipal. A place to reflect. To unwind. To reminiscence. To draw closer to God. To enjoy nature. To feel simple happiness. To feel belong..
I am so easily satisfied.

Instead of regretting, being vengeful, depressing and bothering myself with those "what-ifs", I'll cast them all away. I'm doing my best. Hating is tiring (very cliche but very true). I'm only 20 ++. Why worry so much hey? There's truly more to life if I just open my eyes to the right things and close them to hurtful things. Ignorance is bliss.

p.s: Pardon the emo-ness. Breath-taking views make one emo.

Oh. And this is ME.. V^-^v
