# 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.

# 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..
