Shades Of Cool



My friend, Fran (imagine the puns made with her name), and I had conducted couple of photo shoots since last year. Last Saturday was our third shoot till a long time considering we are all mostly likely gonna be busy for a while since graduating form high school. It's also by far the best I had, even considering that our only cameras were her sister's iPhone 4 and my Sony Xperia Z2. Quick note on my smartphone: I wanted to find one with the best camera and this totally fit my criteria of the perfect camera. Its manual function allows me to control ISO, focus on certain objects whilst giving a blur background similar to that of a DSLR and capture amazing details. Basically, I take all my photos with it.

For this shoot, we went for a minimalist grunge as the theme. For once we went for something really simple but not understated at all. In their basic apparels, the models, Cristy (left) and Chan Yng (right), wore delicate necklaces and rings provided by me. They shine in the photos as key pieces. It was a lot easier taking pictures this time around and this was great considering its the models second time shooting. Barely needed to do much editing; just increasing the exposure and only two filters, one with a vibrant tint and the other black and white was used. 

I'm going to the US this Wednesday and I'm gonna be there for about a month and half. So I'm excited and anxious and scared as we're making a few long stops on our flight to there. I'm gonna be seriously jet lagged and probably stressed about some menial things along the way but it's all part of the journey. Chances are I will be getting to enjoy to make and snap some memories. Seeya guys soon!

Tune Favourites

Double posting yeah! Feeling pretty motivated so straight after my very recent post of my trip to La Holla, here is another post on some of the songs that got me feeling some good vibes for the past 2 months I've been in the US until even now. You all also get an idea on my kind of music which is pretty eclectic as some of those who I violated with my playlist over the radio would know. Along with what I think of the song as well as a bit of info on it, hope you guys check em' out and see if you like them! 1. Blank Space/ Style (Taylor Swift Mashup) by Louisa Wendorff & Devin Dawson This is my current on repeat song that I only discovered just couple days back and this song got 4 million views on youtube. Gaining these artists some attention from the media and compliments from Tay Swift herself! Also they got to attend the Grammy's today and sing this song on E!'s pre red carpet show. Nothing but soft classic yet original tunes and perfect harmony that ...

2021 Update

     Hi readers if I still have any. I know its been two whole years since my last one and the reasoning the same. I am still doing my degree and technically in my final semester but with everything going on right now I am still the same girl with new different things to be anxious about. I am not sure if this means I am back on the blogging grind but I weirdly still feel a need to update on where I am, where you could find me more if not this blog and it felt like the mood to write this came and I jumped on it.     So I am right now trying to do my best with doing my final stretch of degree on a virtual online platform and my weakness for getting things done and time managing hit me so hard. Not being able to be where my family is right now in Sabah has caused tons of different strains no one is prepared for but I want to leave you all also things I am doing to do to try work on it. I am taking therapy (it has been hard work but its definitely relieved my emoti...

Spotlight: Beauty Edition

I am back home and having spent almost 3 weeks blissfully chilling and eating, I thought I share some beauty products that I've been loving recently. For cleanser , I really do enjoy this one for removing my make up. I won't say its something you can count on to take a completely BEAT face off but if you typically don on light makeup (me on the daily), this does the job. I really wanted to try be environment friendly by avoiding make up wipes as much as I can and I can't use cleansing oils because I have no hot water back in the hostel to really get that off. Hence, I gave this a go and its a bliss to massage into the face. I've been trying this thing I read from W Magazine that's a Japanese technique to cleanse as well as rinse for a couple minutes each to really clean out your face with gentle cleansers. So this product was perfect to also implement that and easy to rinse out as well. When I wanted to be more gentle to my skin, I worried that product...
