Just an excuse to blog

I haven't been blogging a while. I guess when you are a full-time writer, the last thing you would want to do during your free time is to write. But I think the main reason is because I don't have a computer at home anymore (my PC dieded on me, sniff) and I don't have time when at work.

I am waiting for a new laptop. Yes, waiting for it to fall on my lap (pun unintended). We shall wait and see.

And speaking of new techie gadgets, I just got myself a digital camera. It's my very first! Imagine, I had been using those old-fashioned cameras - with films! People used to laugh at me. This new cammie is a pretty standard one, not those cool DSLRs that give you giant biceps after carrying them for a full hour. Still, I like it because it's dark red and has large enough buttons for my chubby fingers.


I would love to take artsy-fartsy pictures showing the most ordinary stuff in different light or angle. And gorgeous breathtaking sceneries or sunsets that make you stop in the middle of the street and get knocked down by oncoming traffic. The trick is to bring my camera everywhere I go to be able to catch the sights when I see them.

But for now I will have to be contended to just snap photos of people in ninja gears or bright orange undies worn outside and stuffed with a mobile phone...
