Comex Day 3.

Tio arrow to attend some annual general meeting at Chevron... -_-. They like to gei zua send nsf their membership card... xnn. Its farking far and i had to climb up early and waste $ on cab to get there at 9am and the godamn thing starts at 11am. _|_
Sneaked out wif my mates halfway while the Chairman is giving his speech which dosent concern us.

Went to Comex again with a male colleague. This time round is aim to get a digicam and walk finish the place. Went to the food festival to have lunch... Hard time choosing wat to eat. In the end bought a fried noodle with salmon, japanese pizza.. and a vege biscuit -.-. And share a 雪花糕.. a special ice cream... v nice.

WAlk and walk until we 2 tired, and go outside 1 corner and sit, while waiting to long ge, kian and kun to come. Sit awhile doze off le zzzZ. In the end they nv come coz traffic is screwed, difficult to come up. Left mi to shop for my digicam. Again, i met familiar ppl, erm.. consectively -________-. Met poly mates. 1 of them is ang gu chia, long ge's fren. After awhile, met bmt course mate. And both of them asked the same, usual, irritating question. 你一个人啊。....... WAT IS THERE SO SURPRISING. IT IS THEN SURPRISING WHEN U C MI WIF A GAL. ..k. the bmt mate is on 1 month leave?! and his hair is considered long. tmd. sometimes life is juz too unfair. how da fark can get 1 month of leave but im juz too lazy to ask.. not my biz. and i'll try not to ask "你一个人啊".

After some testing of digicams, i have decided which to buy. The Kyocera Yashica M410R. Its main feature is the 10x zoom, 3.3fps continous shot and the price and bundled goodies. Bundled with mini tripod, normal tripod, 512mb sd card, bag, watch and external flash, it sells for $469. Alot of cheaper than retail superstore which sells for $499 and add $30 for 512mb sd card. I had a hard time deciding this or the Lumix FZ5, a 12x opt zoom with its mega o.i.s (optical image stabilizer), which is considered among the best anti shake mechanism around. But the off point is it onli support 320x160 video mode and is in .mov format.. kinda not veri convinient, and its price of $799, but wif goodies like 512mb x2 sd card and drybox etc is quite worth. If onli the Kyocera M410R has an image stabliser, den its perfect, along with its 640x320 video and can zoom in/out while recording. In the end, i forgot tat 640 movies eat up alot of diskspace without mp4 encoding -____-. But nvm. Its a good start to take good pix.

Bought a sweater and tee from F-Men. Im beginning to like F Men stuffs...cos of their small sleeves and sizes.. even for my size, i nid to wear L. I wonder their target audience is who... I oso like their phrase on tees.. "Dreams are Reality" .. Yip -_-

Quite a good deal
