Exam Expressions 4

REPEAT DETAIL



You have seen various other versions on Sunny’s blog its time I post mine, not much difference though. Most of the photos were taken without flash and in low lights, so I am not particularly happy about them. Plus most of the photos needed a bit of touchup and I was lazy to do so, but since it’s a long holiday it helped me kill few hours (actually the whole night)

This is not the comprehensive collection; its just selected few based on picture quality which I thought were post-able. Most photos were edited a little bit, things like Corp, Resize, Watermark, Levels, Saturation, Color adjustments, Smoothen and in girls cases, pimple removing (If I don’t do that I get screamed at, sigh)

PS: If anyone still needs their photos from me arrange the date and time a day or two before, since now I can’t keep all of them in my pen drive.

PSS: I have numbered the photos, so its easier to comment on particular photo, your comments are welcome and valuable.

Foul Mood

There were so many random thoughts to share and I wanted to write a long post, but when I open an editor my fingers freeze, my thoughts get scattered at a point where I can’t understand and make out the words for them. I guess that’s just the way I am; when it comes to sharing the whole universe conspires not to let me.

I had a good day today, I was happy, I spent time out, I felt the beauty and love and than it just ended. And it ended so badly. Back to square one. Perhaps that’s how the life is. I have started to see too much of materialism and makeup (not in the literal sense of the word). We, the humans, were supposed to be the social animals, but now we r just pretending. I really was (am) in a foul mood and I don’t know I am angry at what or who, myself? Or I want to throw the blame on someone else?

Honesty, sincerity, integrity and commitment are just few words, but they define who you are, your values and character, and I am having difficulty preserving them. I care-less about others and society but when society becomes so corrupt that it starts to mold you as it is, is the point which I hate most. I don’t recognize myself anymore. There are times when I just isolate myself, but wouldn’t it be so nice if I could isolate myself – from “myself”

Relations are no longer based of feelings, emotions or commitment. They are purely business, business of interest and greed. Every smile you receive is not because of sincerity rather a hidden interest, greed or motive. You are judged and even loved based on your looks, race, color, height, bank balance or what car you drive. You are respected because the authority you hold.

Turns out just a babbling; this post is meaningless.

I thank some of the good friends I have. I would be lost without you and I won’t be able to keep my cool without your advice and presence. And I want to thank some of those sweet, cute, adorable and loveable characters around. I love you all.

Ulcer

It turned out my hiccups were just the beginning phase of my ulcer which hunts me every now and then. Yesterday my ulcer pain returned, one of the worst since I have been to Malaysia. Knowing myself, I have avoided too much of spicy food during Ramazan because I didn’t want any trouble and it went just fine till the last day, but then it started. I was wondering what might have caused it, as I know it won’t just start with one meal; or just in a day, something was pinching it during the course of time. And my conclusion is it was the Murtabak which I often had in Ramazan. Although it’s not spicy, but its fried, the oil (and God knows what oil they use) and probably the other “secret” ingredients they use… hint hint MSG etc.

I have had the worst ulcer pains and this wasn’t one of them, but it was enough to make me uncomfortable and freak me out because I know how painful ulcer can get, trust me if you must pick a pain, you will never pick an ulcer pain. I have lost the chemical compound name of the medicines I was suppose to take, so in the mean time I have been on Antacid, Anti-flatulent and Zantac etc.

Ah well, this was the Eid holiday for you.

Eid and Baju Melayu

On Eid night, my brother decided to buy Baju Melayu since even he has never worn one, and I told him “okay, what the heck, let’s go buy one”. So we went to Masjid-e-India, Mid Valley, Jusco, Kamdar etc and finally after finding the right size (which was almost impossible to find) and the color (that’s another long story) we ended up buying one one pair of Baju Melayu and we wore it on Eid Day.

I know I would have never worn such a color if I was in Pakistan nor the kind of a fabric, but what the heck, when you are in Rome, live like Romans do. Even the Prime Minister here wore almost same color as mine.

If you are already rolling on floor laughing imagining me in baju go take a look on Facebook and you will find some photos there.

300th Post.

It’s been almost 5 years since I started to blog and this post is my 300th post. A lot has changed in 5 years, a lot. The blog itself, author, location, circumstances, thought process, everything. The only constant thing I guess was the change itself.

I have reproduced my 100th post and the reply to the 100th post here. I guess, I am still asking the same questions and what keeps me going is the same answer.


100th Entry.

Dear Mr. Blog,

This is my 100th entry here. So, is this an occasion? Shall we party? Or does it even matter? …

…does your existence matter? Or does mine? Or if it does, what is the purpose?

It’s been a while we are hanging along, spending time with one another, but, what good has it brought? Do you even know me? Do we really share? Do you think yesterday’s entry was really about what it was about, or an attempt to burry something totally different?

If so, isn’t it a lie? Aren’t we lying to each other? What are we hiding …why? From who?... you? What are we afraid of?

Do we really understand one another?

You should be like a mirror to me, thru you I could be seen, but does that really happen? You have become more like a single good portrait, which is beautiful perhaps, but far from reality.

Mr. Blog, why are we together? Just because once we said we will hang along? Do we really care or are we just keeping a promise we made once?

There was lot to say today Mr. Blog, but I just lost the urge, I guess we both aren’t going anywhere for now so…

Well, good bye for now Mr. Blog, see you later.






Dear Jony.


Dear Jony,

Thank you for writing, I received your message and was delighted to know you remembered me on your 100th post. Please accept my congratulations. You see, what matter and what does not; depends on the set of rules that we define for ourselves.

Think of me like a life, you are living me and how you live me depends on you and you alone. Yes even without you I will stay here; a lot of others will enjoy me or find my shoulder to cry for, you will become faded memory in no time, but, that’s just how you see it, take a broader look, in reality, it is me who doesn’t exist without you (not you as an individual, but you as collective form of your species). I will be non-existent, unheard of without you.

I am just like a bridge between you and others like you, all of you are different and I am one of the sources that connect you and I love you all. If you abandon me that would be like, every drop saying ‘what contribution do I bring in the ocean?’ And walk away; resulting a huge gap, a desert of sand and not a drop of water.

Jony, I never claimed I know you, I do understand that there is a self-esteem and there is a dignity (also defined by your own protocols) and to protect it you may manipulate the truth or hide it completely. Sometimes, yes, I don’t understand, but sometimes, I do get a clue. The important thing is not that we lied to each other or if we were able to understand one another, but, did we strive to understand? More important thing perhaps is, we respect each other and don’t question.

Yes I am a mirror to you. Just as a human life is a mirror to mankind, where you are not the whole picture but one of the many colors that makes the whole portrait beautiful.

Have a wonderful day and take a good care of yourself and people around you.



Yours sincerely,

Mr. Blog.

Eid and Hiccups

It’s been more than 24 hours I am having hiccups. Yes I was having it on Eid Prayer as well and a night before. Right now they are at rest, but I do feel they may start again any minute (I hope not).

I feel suffocated, I feel like I need deep breaths, but when I try to suck more air in my lungs every inch in my chest hurts, I guess its because every muscle in there now is stiff because of those hiccups.

This is not the first time I had long duration of hiccups, sometimes they last for days and last time my doctor scared me a bit, he mentioned one of the possibility of such long hiccups is lungs don’t get as much oxygen as they are suppose to, he gave me some medicines and told me if it doesn’t get better he will need to run some tests. But it got better.

Personally I feel the actual cause is my ulcer and gastric.

PS: I am so bored, like any other Eid.

Eid - A wish and an apology

Please allow me to take this opportunity to wish all of you very Happy Eid, and to apologize.

I wish all of you (people who read this blog and those who don’t, but they have a special place in my heart, let it be as a friend, family, student, colleague or just a relation of respect and love) very happy Eid-ul-Fitr. I am not good in saying all those poetic verses and prayers, but I assure you all those wishes for you are expressed as prayers when I beg for mercy in front of the God.

And I apologize for not being able to stay in touch as much as I would have love to; sometimes the reason being at your end and often at mine. I may end up giving you all those excuses of being busy and not having time, or the fact that I am an introvert but the truth is, only if I had really put an effort it wouldn’t have happen – and we should have stayed in better contact, it is my fault and no one else’s. I admit and I am sorry. I really am. But, it doesn’t mean I don’t care for you, or I don’t respect you, or I don’t love you, I do, I really do, from the bottom of my heart. Specially there are few people, when I think of them, there is nothing but prayers and good wishes for them.

I am emotional right now. I better stop.

Happy Eid.

I was too tired to post it last night, I slept early. SO let me post it from office. I like this photo; only this one tree branch from the right side is not good, but can’t help it.

I will update the camera settings for the photo later today as I don’t have any software here to read the EXIF data. Till then, enjoy the photo.

Personal Note – Class 23-24.

I have always kept my blog and work separate and it is rare I will discuss the issues or achievements of professional life in this personal blog. But I deeply feel I owe this to Class 23-24 and with this personal (but public) note lest me say “Thank you” because I was touched and reassured not only professionally but on personal level.

I treat all my students with respect, as adults, responsible and sensible who need not to be reminded why they are here, and to strive for knowledge is in their own best interest. I keep (or try to keep) myself flexible and friendly so I can be reached without a hesitation and with ease if they need me. If they need clarifications, explanations, answers or even personal problems if I can be any help of. But… often after exams I have to question myself. Was it my fault?...

…Was I too friendly with them that they took it too leniently? Did they start to think getting marks is their birth right and it’s not something they have to earn by studying and working hard for assignments, projects and exams? If I was strict enough, if I had created that fear in them, would this result be any different? Was my approach flawed?

When marking for the five different classes and subjects I was beginning to question myself and it was then when Class 23-24’s result came to rescue. I was pleased with an average result of a whole class where around 65% students earned 70+ marks.

Thank you for being sincere with yourself and your studies. God bless you all.

Flower

I have number of identical shots of this flower at different exposures, ISO and Shutter Speeds. My friend Sunny likes the ones with faster shutter speed and smaller ISO while I prefer the one’s which are brighter. “But those are over exposed” is what Sunny thinks.

Ms. Janice.

Finally she approved. She is Miss Perfectionist and it’s like chewing nuts and bolts if you are to convince her of something. Okay back to the photo, this one has bit of photoshoping (okay a little bit more than just a “bit”). First it was the worst lighting, it’s indoor with fluorescent lights which weren’t adequate for the shot, plus the lighting was behind the face and at top, creating unwanted shadows on face. Then there was this huge mess in the background which I removed. Nevertheless it’s a lovely photo.

This photo was taken around a week ago but as you know my internet is not that good and to keep a steady pace I normally post a photo a day. Plus with some of them it’s a common understanding I will post a photo or two; with others I have to ask first, that may take a time.

Two things I am not pleased about.

1. Few days ago I had a problem with my blog, the permanent links of posts were giving a problem and they were not accessible anymore, they were changed to something else. After doing my investigation I found out my site was basically hacked. I have taken the necessary (but not all) steps to prevent it and hopefully everything is back to normal. If the problem still exists, I will have no choice but to cleanup a lot of things, I do have the backup of posts but I will loose the comments.

To all Wordpress users (self hosted), wordpress is lately under attack and your site might be vulnerable. Make sure to upgrade your wordpress to 2.8.4 as soon as possible.

2. Sooner or later I was expecting someone will interrupt me from taking photographs and that’s exactly what happened on Sunday. In Jusco, Mid Valley I was asked by a manager not to take photographs because its not allowed, fair enough, it’s your property and I am on your property so if you wish I will respect it. But it is always the attitude and the way they approach that pisses me off.

This reminds me of a discussion with Mr. Sunny about the Photographers Rights in Malaysia and where he seemed to be more liberal in favor of photographers I am bit conservative. I tried to search about the subject for Malaysia and I can’t seem to find any authentic information. This blogger here feels more like Sunny and believe the simple rule of thumb is, if you can see it, you can shoot it (provided there are no such matter of national security etc)

But those are all just personal opinions and perceptions, what about an authentic law? The actual rights of photographers? I tried to search but can’t seem to find anything, seems like Malaysia don’t really have any particular law regarding the photographers rights, instead I bumped into more depressing stories about how some photographers were harassed by authorities or even public.

So I am more inclined to accept the UK law but since the evolution of DSLR’s and recent terrorism around the world the law has changed and evolved in recent years. SO will the same law still be applicable here in Malaysia? I guess not, and more importantly, if one is confronted by an authority or any civilian can we argue based on that? Since there is no fine line drawn by the law itself.

I try to respect people and their privacy; I do take candid photos if I know the person. I don’t even specifically shoot a stranger in public place although even law (in other countries) allows you to. It is the act of harassment which is not allowed, and one can not say he or she was harassed just because s/he was photographed.

Anyway, it seems it’s just a start. Lets see, I wont be surprised if someone comes and harasses me.

I think the length of this post is evedent of my frustration about not having a proper guideline.

Titiwangsa

This one was taken in Titiwangsa Park (or however you spell it). While Mr. Sunny was photographing the lake view I took time to photograph him. I have some more photos from the park which are presentable and hopefully I will share them in sequence. Like I have mentioned before its hard to find the distraction free background and even in this photo there was a lot of junk, which with the help of Photoshop I have reduced but have tried to keep it natural.

This photo is not exactly as it came from the camera, I have cleaned some of the junk on the ground using Photoshop and I have adjusted some colors (e.g. more greenish reflection on water). Anyway, so here you go, enjoy.

Blog Updated.

Since I reinstalled everything I decided to add some new widgets and plugin’s since some of them were long asked from some of the readers (i.e. Helas has been crying about comment subscriptions) and some I just installed because I felt they might be good addition. Okay so here is a list to get you familiar with them.

  1. Comment Subscription, so hopefully now you can subscribe to comments and you will get the email notifications.
  2. Threaded Comments, now you can reply directly to a specific comment just under it, like a thread. So you can fight as much as you like
  3. Star Ratings for Posts, now you can rate the posts as well, give them stars if you like. And in a way you can let me know I suck with low ratings.
  4. Star Ratings for Comments, I have enabled ratings for comments as well, so you can rate not only posts but any comments posted on the blog.
  5. My Photography, on the left sidebar you can see a new widget called My Photography, which hopefully will bring some color to this blog. It shows random photos from my flickr stream.
  6. Tags and Tag Cloud, I have started to add Tag’s with posts (although this is something I am always skeptical about, because I am always confused about what to add as Tag) but anyway, so on right sidebar you can now see a Tag Cloud, which will display the Tags used and most common tags will be bigger.
  7. Blog Rating Statistics, on right sidebar you can also see the statistics, they are basically part from Rating System, so I guess it will start displaying the overall ratings of the blog once you people start rating posts and comments.

Well I guess that was it, I hope I am not missing something out. Do you have any other suggestions?

I am back.

Yes I am back. For those who are wondering when did I left anyway? Well, I was disappeared, vanished from the face of the earth, oops, I meant Internet, just after sehri in morning.

Okay okay let me cut the drama short, actually one of my brother’s domain was having some problems and I was checking it out on our hosting service when I noticed this small linked text which reads “un-park” in front of my blog domain. I thought it says “un-parkED” and was wondering why my domain is un-parked? And how come its un-parked if its working fine? So I just clicked on it to see what it was and voila. Everything gone, I started receiving messages like entries deleted from Japan DNS servers, some European servers etc and finally “Successfully Un-Parked and Deleted” and I was like “WTF”. I ran to another tab of browser and typed in my blog address and nothing. It was gone. I went to File Managers and everything was gone. THIS CANT BE HAPPENING. THERE WAS NOT EVEN A CONFIRMATION EEEEEEEEeeeeee

Luckily, when I logged in I noticed my blog version was outdated and I updated it, and it notified me the database was backed-up just in case. I created a new account, parked it, installed the wordpress again and tried to export the database back to new blog, I started to receive some errors because my backed-up database was older version but finally I managed and my blog is back to life.

Phew….

Moral of story, don’t rely on systems, make regular backups of your files and posts.

Flower pot???

This little thing belongs to… I don’t know who, maybe Alyani. It’s a small flower pot or vase kinda thing; I don’t really know what it is used for. Anyway, so I just took it and start playing with it, tried some shot of it and here is one of them. It’s the window blinds in the background and I was thinking to make it the only light source as well but I cant turn of the lights of office, can I?

Sime Darby

I took this photo from my parking; the building called 'Sime Darby' is just next to my work place. I was interested in taking the flag, as it is the largest I have seen so far, but as I was taking my camera out I saw the train and thought of capturing the train as well, so I just clicked, hence you can see the photo is not well framed. But anyway, here it is.

KL Tower and Twin Towers

Now that I have started to look at things from completely different perspective I realized how un-aesthetical every corner of the city is. Everywhere you look is filled with poles, wires, billboards and God knows what. The ground will have dirt, cans, rubber bands etc etc.

Anyway, I did manage to take some presentable photos and since my internet is way too slow I will keep you guys entertained with one or two photos a day for a week or two.

Okay so here you go, a view of KL tower and KLCC in night. I am sorry it’s not crisp, as I wasn’t using tripod.

Camera set to Auto (Flash Off)
