Wide Angle Macro Wide Grin

Last minute purchase, I set up an advert on clubsnap, WTB any type of wide angle converter for 58mm thread and got few responses. I settled for a Vitacom 0.45X/Macro 58mm with this lady from Yew Tee cos she had a brand new, unused lens and selling far below my expected price range. Pure luck and tried exploring it’s capabilities, was definitely satisfied.

The photos were slightly distorted, elongated and curved just nice, too much would be too abstract for me. Gee and Ipin, rezeki pengantin baru cos I shall use the lens to capture your solemnization in a few hours time. Overall, PUAS HATI ah!

Aiman Tak Keeesahhh, Asal Sedap

We need dinner and we weren’t sure where to dine, Easterners have all the fun while us, there ain’t much choices for good halal fare. We’ve covered practically West Coast, Clementi, Bukit Timah, Jurong West and well, for the heck of it, let’s just try Jurong East. I knew the place used to be called Sumbangsih but last I heard from Cathy who lives around the area, there’s a new halal food court. The new food court was awesome!! It feels just like some Bedok food court and it’s all halal!!! So many choices, so little stomach space. So West people, take note; there’s Aiman at Jurong East, just 5 minutes away from Almukmimin mosque. This may be old news to some of you, well why didn’t you share earlier??

Melayu, Melayu, Melayu…cam kat Malaysia plak, SERONOK!!!

The name Aiman, reminds me of this clip I’ve seen on Youtube..I also tak kisah, as long as SEDAP..

Cartel, Yeah Right….

I didnt know that Mr Teh Tarik has an upscale branch and at a suburban mall nonetheless. Well, a few bus stops away you can enjoy the same food fare at a fraction of the cost but KITA MAMPU and why should we tire ourselves. However the price hike does not seem on par with the name Teh Tarik Cartel, the ambience leaves much to be desired. It looks exactly like any other Mr Teh Tarik outlet except for the name so it was a no brainer. I had to eat here because I want to have cooked food instead of fast food and the choices for halal food at Tiong Bahru Mall was limited.

Our Last Few Days

We’ll be moving soon!!! Everybody gearing up and have started our own mini packings. Guess who’s going to be the coordinator for the move?? Yes, yours truly.

Random musing of the daily antics at work. Boy, gonna miss Ayer Rajah and the lame excuse for being late. Now with the MRT just 5 minutes away, I need to find a new ruse.
