Just got home from Jalan Masjid India..thank God it wasnt raining when i got down there. :D Went down there to get myself some henna done on my arm. ;) yeah,my obsession to mark my own body has returned..haha.. :P Maybe this time round i'll be brave enough to go get a real one done...but then again..i'll have to do it somewhere that i can hide whenever i need to make myself look more formal. :) Anyways, Jalan Masjid India and the area around Masjid Jamek was really nice..better than what i've visualized in my mind..U know with all the 'other' people there..its gonna be weird and dangerous for a lone chinese guy walking around trying to look for someone thats doing henna. :) But it was a real nice walk around that place..seeing so many stalls selling stuffs for Deepavali and also Hari Raya..and the people were quite friendly i guess. :) While i was having my henna done, this malay uncle came up to me and said "wow,look like some Dayak patterns, very nice." At least someone other than me thinks its nice..haha. :) even though it was an uncle..Got alot of stares from people too when i was on my way back to Taman Paramount..even had this lady that was sitting next to me on the LRT asking me about the patterns on my hand..she too said it was and i quote "Cool"..haha..imagine someone around 30+ saying "cool"..haha..really really interesting. ;) Didnt realise that 30+ adults nowadays are still so 'in'..haha. ;)
Today was pretty ok for me..woke up really early around 7am with nothing much planned for the day..had to start-up my mac though cause the night before we had a blackout..so had to sleep without the air-condition for the first time since i moved into the apartment 2 years ago..Man,imagine..2 years has gone by and i dont even feel it..Man,i really have to start bucking up else i'll be 35 and still be fooling around and going to Jalan Masjid India alone at night looking for someone to do henna for me..haha. ;) Well,yeah..woke up thinking about my mac and my downloads and also trying to decide if i wanted to go to college to get some more studio work done..So went to college around 10am cause i suddenly had some interesting idea for my photography assignment..so went there to do a 30 minute studio work.. ;) The other people that was in the studio at that time didnt believe that Putri and i could work so fast to get our work done..hehe. :D feel pretty darn good about it. :) Oh yeah,saw Alex and Li Ann there too..she was handing in some work and he was there for a tour of the place..haha. :)
Got to an Esso station with Raimy, Rob, Atif, Raymond and Preach for lunch..the Esso station had a Rasa Ayamas outlet there so since Raymond and Preach keep saying that the food there is good..so we decided to go there for lunch..but man,the service was really really bad..The guy couldnt understand simple english..Raimy and i was trying to figure out what was available so we just pointed to the chicken and asked what flavour was it and the guy kept saying "1 plate?, half chicken?" man,that was so annoying..but guess what can u expect huh. :) Food was ok..loved the chili though..Really nice Ayamas chili. :) Spend like 2 hours just sitting there for lunch and chatting..imagine that..6 guys sitting there for so long just talking. ;) Then,sent the guys back..even Raimy who stays in Ampang..cause i was toying with the idea of taking some city shots but ended up just driving home cause i didnt have any idea where to go..so got home and took a nap thinking that maybe tonight i'll be able to join the night battle with Spencer and gang but got a sms from him saying that the battle was cancelled cause there wasnt enough people confirming their participation..Oh well,guess it was for the better since now i have my henna done..hehe. :) But was quite disappointed cause was really looking forward for the battle. :) Guess i'll just have to wait for the 28th when i go join Azlan and his gang. :D I just hope that battle wont get cancelled or something pops up in Church and i cant go.
Manage to borrow a 70mm to 300mm macro zoom lens from Cavin before i headed down to Jalan Masjid India..wanted to do some close-up shots of Delicia's eye and also some other stuffs tomorrow..another part of the photography assignment thats due next friday..sigh,i really hope i can get everything developed in time else i'll be having alot of trouble..spending so much money on this subject and i cant pass it cause i couldnt get anything developed and printed in time..is a good reason at all..Anyways, bought myself some nasi lemak ayam goreng from the Maybank mamak at SeaPark..so gonna go enjoy it..i just hope the standard is back to its glory days else i just wasted RM4. :) Oh and also,the painting above..also by Mr. Foad, my Life Drawing lecturer..try guessing who that person is in the painting. :) Acrylics on sketchbook as usual. So "Bonne nuit et Au revoir, mes amis."
