# No.13 { Instax Mini 8 Camera Review }

Thursday, December 05, 2013

Hey guys ! Since I've never reviewed on anything so far, and since my holiday is just plain boring! So, I've decided to make a review on my first Polaroid Camera / Instant Camera / Fujifilm's Instax Camera Mini 8. I even shot my first video review ^^ . First of all I would like to apologise for the NG video and I'll try my best to shoot better videos in the future . *PROMISE*

The Instax Mini 8 Camera

Polaroid camera such as the instax mini 8 provides really nice pictures that can be kept for long. Despite the high cost for the film, its fun especially for hangouts and also a type of picture where you would keep them for lifetime and since its card size, its possible to be kept anywhere you like such as your purse. Comparing to digital camera, this camera is easy to use , all you need to do is just click the shutter button and voila your picture will appear . But on the dark side, compare to any digital camera there's no screen for you to check if the picture taken is nice or not. So, there's no guarantee to having a nice picture. But with the function indicator lighting system on instax mini 8, it helps a little to reassure that your photos will turn out great. ( Well, most of the time just trust on your photographic skill, click and hope for the best! ) The instax mini 8 camera comes in many different colours such as yellow, pink , white , blue and black.

Besides being all funky and colourful, it is compact and definitely not heavy at all. This makes it easier to bring around and most of all you can capture your memories easily anytime you want. I find it a wonderful camera to bring about since its as light as an empty box and pictures are developed instantly but I recommend that this shouldn't be your only camera. Well, since it comes with a high cost film, you wouldn't wanna spend much money wasting on films right? Besides that, although its light but its still bulky compare to digital cameras and mobile phones.

But really, it couldn’t be any easier to use, you switch it on by pulling out the lens, choose a brightness setting (inside, cloudy, hi key, etc) then take a photo and just wait for your photo to be produce and thats basically all! A perfect camera for bringing out anywhere to capture great memories.

These are a few pictures taken by the Instax Mini Camera

You can also write small tiny notes or dates on your polaroid pictures like I did on the first picture from left.

# No.12 - The End of Senior Year

Monday, December 02, 2013

Hello peeps !

I know I should have wrote this post a long time ago when I ended my SPM paper last week but I didn't have a single idea for it. :P sorry about that . Hehe ^^

5 years have passed since the day I've made that decision to pursue my studies at SMK DAMANSARA JAYA. I still remember those days in my primary where I cried my heart and lungs out during my graduation day even when my parents fetch me back home , I was crying like a little baby in the car. It's always hard for me to leave things that I'm very attached with since young.

The first day during highschool was normal like any other person , I remember that my dad made me pin up my hair according to the school rules . I looked ridiculous and it didn't stop only for the first few days of school. It lasted till I think almost end of the year where I got a haircut. I remember when the teachers made us introduce ourselves in class and how I took my first interview to become a prefect. I still remember the teachers that interviewed me and how nervous I was . But it wasn't that bad that I couldn't talk , thank god! I still remember how one of the teacher heard that I had a C for BM penulisan in UPSR and asked me what kind of Malay I am . HAHA. Then I remember when I had my first agama lesson at highschool , how I was never good at being friends with Malays cause I was used to being in a majority Chinese school and how I am half Chinese. I wore a pinafore on the first day of school, can't stop laughing at the fact that when I first stepped in Surau, I could hear whispers asking if I'm Chinese . SUPER AWKWARD. But I was glad that the girls were very friendly also. Because they are from the same primary school so they were all close to each other . However, I didn't feel out of place and that's how I lasted my 5 years of life and made great friends with them :D Every year I grow older by one age, many things happened. I've never imagine that I would be doing things like performing on stage, playing futsal, or maybe handball. Most of all I've never expect to have had so much fun during my highschool years . After leaving primary school, I thought that I'll never have fun in highschool like I used to had but I did. I learned so many things. I've learn about love , friendship, skills... I never even thought that I would be joining the editorial board or the debate team. What's even crazier is doing oral tests talking infront of the whole class. I've always had stage frights and I still do. Never have I even imagine singing and acting infront of the whole school or being a small captain in small tournaments or cheer and dancing.

These 5 years of highschool, besides learning many things , I've made so many friends. Without them, there would be no bittersweet highschool memories for me. Everyday of highschool life would be dull. Being in 5 years of different classes , make it 4 different classes in 5 years, I've manage to know at least more than a quarter of friends with the same age. I've also gain bestfriends . Some stayed along the way ,some might not . But we are all still friends . I've also made so many brothers and sisters along my highschool life , people who always take good care of me . Not to forget , all the juniors that I've known. You guys are all so adorable and most of the time more mature than me :P. Also seniors who have always helped me out .

So much memories I wish I didn't have to let go, stories that I would tell all day to anyone .. got to say that I will never regret my highschool life . So gonna miss all the basketball trainings , the fun pjpk, the dreading P&P lessons that lasts so long when you want it to end.. Although leaving here was a bittersweet feeling, I guess I have to learn to grow up and learn that in our journey of life , things comes and goes. Goodbye is not the end. I want to thank everyone for all the memories that they made for me in life , especially to Syafinas, Fazrini, Sze Hwei, The honey badgers, Caryl , Vivian, Chia Sing, Vanessa , Hsin Yee , Sharon, Nadine, Kristene, Esther , Keisha, Max, Zi Hen, Shaun, Mun Fai, the twins Jun Wei and Jun Hao, Janelle, Aqila, Mardiana, the funny Zul, Sampat buddy Wei Lyem, Izzat, Wai Lynn, Xin Lin, Yi Xuan, Michele , Xin Zheng , Eve , Jing Yi, Raihana , Hash, Zhao Wei, Andrea ...and a lot thousands more friends out there . I'm sorry if ur name is not listed , there's too many of u guys for me to write down but I promise that all of your names are written down deep in my heart.

Not to forget teachers who are always there that taught me many things and tried their best in everything and teachers who have helped me a lot a lot . Puan Tan, Puan Lim, Puan Nurin, Puan Hasila and the lists goes on and on..

Thank you so much everyone for being a part in my life . Most of all in the next gazillions years coming , I hope we'll all still keep in touch . Whatever dreams or careers you guys are pursuing in the future I hope you all have the best in your future . Till the day we see again, goodbye my highschool life ! :'D

So many things and stories I can write down all day and night, all these memories that will stay in my heart and my mind and will always be reminisce back and told to my younger generations..

#No.10 {Random Friendship Post}

Thursday, August 15, 2013

Hey guys ! Wazzup?! \0/

So... Yesterday I kinda felt like blogging something and I couldn't decide on what to blog about . I tweeted asking for opinions and I got a few thick face friends that wants me to blog about them! (I am so gonna get from this xD)

Let's start !

First on the list is ... *drum rolls*

1. Nurfazrini Idayu

I've had a 3 years friendship with her. The fun part is we have the same name (not really fun) , it's kinda annoying when they call us Idayu and we don't know who they are calling... One of the most talkative friend I have. Super hyperactive. Korean drama fan and kpop fan ! I've never really Spazz with her on any kpop groups though... Although she's like a bro to me and doesn't really like kids , she have a very soft heart . :')

She cries easily over any tiny heart touching stories etc .. haha. Besides that , she also hates durian. Oh, and she loves barom (C-Clown) alot! Before Barom, her first husband was OK Taecyeon (2PM) . She's been a great friend to me . And always there to listen to my problems .... 3 years of friendship and still going on :) Love her to bits xx

2.Chia Sing

So, I don't know much about her yet. She's a year younger than me . Very friendly . I know her from a basketball match. She's my csi partner , where we sort of share our secrets ;) very sporty . She plays football games , watches football match (also other sports) and she does workout! :D She's also smart cause I actually ask help from her for some form 4 subjects ! Hahaha. Funny at times and nice to talk to. Also a very caring junior who always knows if I'm sad and tries her best to cheer me up . :)

Hope we get to know more of each other and long lasting friendship!

3. Nur Aqila

Can't seem to find a nicer picture of us cause I lost my iPod :'( . I've known her since form 2 which means we have 4 years of friendship . The first 2 years of friendship we weren't that close till form 4. She's been my classmates for 3 years. And always have been a great friend to me . Listening to my problems and giving advices :) She's also pretty loud and hyper . HAHA. At times funny. She's friendly, she have lots of friends. Besides that, she likes music. She sings alot and don't worry she have a nice voice :D and she dances too. An independent girl and full of leadership in her. I'm happy to have a friend like her and super proud of her achievements :D

Hope our friendship last long!! xx

Lastly..

4. Ernest

I got that picture from his twitter ! Haha. So.. I haven't have any decent conversation with this guy yet. We are like a hi-bye friend ! He's friendly and funny at times. As you can see he does cheerleading and he's strong *pewwweet* .. All I can say is I hope we get to know more of each other instead of just a hi-bye friend :)

And ... Finally ! I am done with the four random friend post. Honestly I have no idea what to write so I just crapped out everything that I could think of at the moment . :P meeting them was fate and there was no regrets :) all I can hope is I get to know more of them and of course a long lasting friendship till we are all old ! I shall end my post with a nice friendship quote ❤

Maybe.. My next post should be #10 facts about me part 2? What do you guys think? If you have any blogpost request you can always mention me on twitter @DayuTweets or leave a comment ! :)

#No.9 {The Legendary Badminton Match}

Sunday, August 11, 2013

About 2 hours ago or more, I'm pretty sure the whole Malaysia (maybe world..) was shaken up by the legendary match between the world no.1 Dato' Lee Chong Wei against China's best player Lin Dan. Prayers and supports was all over my twitter timeline and as usual ... Live feed updates. The match was so nerve-wrecking. It was a great start and joy for all Malaysians when Dato' Lee Chong Wei managed to win the first set , however with slight mistakes here and there the 2nd game set wasn't joyful anymore . And lastly at the end , the 3rd set.. It was a great start again by Dato' Lee Chong Wei with 4 points leading until it became a tragedy when his legs gave in to a muscle cramp.

The special thing about this whole match wasn't about the skills shown off by the players in the match. Instead, it was the spirit shown by Dato' Lee Chong Wei. Of course everyone could see that he didn't do a great job with his wrong judgements that never end .. But then again.. Who are we to judge right? The spirit shown by him when he had his muscles cramp was just amazing. It proved that as an athlete he tried to fought for his win. The first time when his muscle cramp hit him, after given some slight spray from the medics he stood up and continued the game. Everyone thought he would have given up. He could at that point , lose everything without fighting. But he didn't and he chose to stand up and continue and he manage to score a point ! But unfortunately his stubborn legs gave up on him again and he lost at the end of the game. His spirit showed many people , young or old not to give up and it have touched many souls. He didn't win the game, he didn't beg the gold for Malaysia and our National anthem the "Negaraku" wasn't played (again..) . All hopes were crushed but in our hearts, he's our HERO. Not just in our hearts (Malaysians) but also to all those that have watched the game . We all could see he tried his best . Although he failed , his efforts was seen and even the commentators said he's a nice guy.

As for Lin Dan, many hates was given to him. All I could say is, as much hate we have for his egoistic attitude ... He's still a pretty nice guy for giving a little sympathetic care for Lee Chong Wei.

And I mean.. Look at that picture man! Although he isn't entirely nice but sportsmanship was shown. Plus, at least the game was played fair and he didn't use any dirty tricks or something . So we gotta give this guy a little clap :)

For Dato' Lee Chong Wei..

HE'LL ALWAYS BE OUR HERO ❤

#No.5 { 1st of June }

Saturday, June 01, 2013

Hello guys! So, finally here comes the month of June ! My favourite month in every year. Wow, time is definitely passing by fast isn't it? Now it's half of the year already. I wonder how was the past months like for everyone . Well for me it wasn't great. Whatever it is, I am really hoping for this month to be great. Anyways, hey it's the summer season for most of the countries out there. The month where everyone have been hoping for. Summer, where holidays comes and jumping into pools with your bikinis on is a must. Just incase some of you out there still have no idea what to do for your holidays, I guess some of these 30 days challenge might help to entertain your whole month of June. So have fun ! :)

For those photography lovers out there:

May the month of June be a joyful month for everyone ❤

" Instead of hoping for the month to be good to you, make it a good month yourself . "

#No.4 { Beast- Will You Be Alright lyrics translation}

Friday, May 31, 2013

So, since I'm bored right now and I just came across this. Might be helpful to all the b2uties out there :)

Translation : Beast-Will You Be Alright

Have you thought through the words you just spit out?
Do you know that you can’t turn things back easily?

I hate that you look sorry and sad
This might be our last time so please smile

Rather than me without you, you without me makes me more worried
Because you’re not good at doing things on your own

Will you be alright? Even if I’m not by your side?
You get lonely so easily so even if you’re alone

Will you be alright? Without a person to argue with
Without a person to joke around and laugh with
If it’s okay with you…

Think of it twice, think it through again
(If you leave me) Will you really be alright without me?
Because you’re clumsy at everything without me
Because the you that I know is like a child

Where are you going? Why you wanna go?
Where are you going? Oh, oh why do you want to go?
In the end, you start to cry – what am I supposed to do now?
How can I let you go? You are going to fall apart

Rather than me without you, you without me makes me more worried
Because you’re not good at doing things on your own

Will you be alright? Even if I’m not by your side?
You get lonely so easily so even if you’re alone

Will you be alright? Without a person to argue with
Without a person to joke around and laugh with
If it’s okay with you…

It’s okay for you to be a bit selfish
Even after you leave me, until it stops being hard
You can stay near me

Stay with me baby, stay with me baby
Don’t go, don’t leave me baby, take ma hand
Stay with me baby, stay with me baby
Don’t go, don’t leave me baby

Will you be alright? Even if I’m not by your side?
You get lonely so easily so even if you’re alone

Will you be alright? Without a person to argue with
Without a person to joke around and laugh with
If it’s okay with you…

Video review

#No.3 {Just Give Me 30 Days...}

Thursday, May 30, 2013

So last night at around 2am, I was busy watching YouTube videos thanks to my sai lou (little brother) who was recommending me songs by Sam Tsui. Then I decided to update myself on new videos by Joseph Germani and JinnyBoyTV which was what that lead me to this short film video by BryanLimTv titled 30 Days.

I don't want to be a big spoiler for those who haven't watch it. But all I can say is it's a nice short film. Its about a love story between a shy guy and a pretty girl. I would have cried if they didn't get together in the end. ( Well, you'll know what I am talking about if you watch it! ) Do be careful incase you can't handle the sweetness in the video. It's a very cute short film and I believe most of you guys out there can actually relate to this film. So, enjoy watching! :D
