This Blog Is Full Of It

29 July 2006

Blog Meet!

Whee! Kick ass!

Well, it was held at KLCC's Burger King. Well, since I am not ready to let my parents know that I blog, I told my mom that I came here to meet some old Std 6 classmates. Well, I didn't lie. I even satisfied the 'some' parameter.

Unfortunately, the person I spoke to when I did the booking didn't take me too seriously and didn't cordon the place off. I had to speak to the manager to get her to close the place off.

Some stupid people do not understand the meaning of "This section is closed". Malaysian attitute lah.

Unfortunately, the heavens did not favour the bloggers and it rained, so the theme of 'Camwhores in a Park' was just 'Camwhores in BK'.

Also, some bloggers left before I had a chance to talk to them or camwhore. I didn't realise they would have went off so soon.

For the Kenny Sia fans, I apologise. I mailed him an invitation but he was in KL on the 25th and the 26th. Well, lets see what did he miss out.

Upon disbanding, I left for home. Took the LRT home with Bryan Boy and Jolin
***


Anyway, here are the pictures. Posted in the order that they were taken. Photos starting with 'IMG' were taken using a Canon PowerShot S45 while pictures starting with 'P' were taken using a Olympus C-740 UZ.

Most unfortunately, both cameras lacks optical stabilisation and pictures tend to be blurry. I'll post the originals so feel free to steal them. Don't try to make any money out of it though, not that you'll be able to.

The obligatory location shot



Kyels behind Chung Lern's 20D.
I previously fiddled with it, makes the anticipation for my own unit even greater. I was contemplating knocking him out and running home. The camera has a Speedlite 580EX and a EF 17-40mm f/4.0L USM lens. Lens diameter 77mm. I got my hard on by handling that camera. If you were to look at Kyels' right finger on the battery grip, it is hovering over the shutter button. There is also a dial near the shutter button which facilitates some controls.

I was fiddling with the Speedlite and discharged it when it was fully charged. The flash was intensely bright and even with the diffuser on it dazed me for several moments. Yes it was that powerful!



Jolene the blog dai kah jie.



Kyels. She was pretty quiet and shy through out the meeting. I'm sorry if you felt bored. Anyway, Kye Lee told me that she had just spent some money on camera accessories. An EF 85mm f/1.8 USM lens as well as a Canon Speedlite 550EX, which is similiar to what Chung Lern has on his item.



Jasiminne had the audacity to actually forget my name. Thankfully she remembers Dr. Tan though.



Chung Lern, the camera is his. His face is here. KO him for me please. Bring the camera to me, unharmed.


Jed, didn't get to talk to him.



Ivan, ditto.



Errr.... Never mind that..



Albert. He did some weird modifications to his Fujifilm camera which meant he could take macro shots with the subject touching the front element. Focusing is terribly slow though.



Rames is a comrade in the sense that he's aiming for a DSLR as well.



Shaz's height makes me feel so short.



Jason Lioh. He just got a new camera. A Panasonic FZ-30 which is similiar to the one that my brother uses. However, Jason's is in silver which is well, lets just say that black is beautiful. Unfortunately for me, Canon 300Ds are only manufactured in silver. Buggers



Joan Chew the food lover. Fortunately for her, the love for food does not show.



Boss Lepton & Boss Stewie Unfortunately, lengmou is shutting down already. We mourn the loss of a wonderful blog.



Calvin and Evelyn having their bonding session.



Clockwise from top left: Cheryl, Kel Li, Cheng Sim, Erin Tan, Jolene, Jasiminne and Smashpop



Calvin Tay



Dr. Tan. Stupid Calvin Tay. Took a nice picture for him but he has to spoil my moment of glory. Nevermind that, I'll get the pictures from other people. Die far far lah Calvin. Die die die... *RAGE!!!*



Just a fraction of what was there.


L-R: Evelyn, Jasiminne, Cheryl, Cheng Sim, Stewie, Lepton, Kel Li, Jolene, sorry and Jen.



Group shot. I don't know how many cameras passed through my hands during that session. I later put down the cameras and joined in for a few shots.



pOp pOp. The lighting makes this picture seem like a glamour portrait. If only the murals were not there.


Cheryl. Nyummm



Kelz studies in Monash. Never saw her in that prison before. Gender segregation perhaps.



Evelyn the classmate, blogmate, swearmate. The only thing lacking is mating.



Jen is also aiming for a DSLR.



Penny, unfortunately I also didn't get to talk to her.



Bryan Chin my old school mate. He has a D70s.



Jen, Slinky and Joan. Damn cute right?



Jolin, my Std 6 classmate. The reason I satisfied the 'some' parameter was because another friend dropped by after spotting us.



Evie. I have been seeing her everyday for ages and I never had a picture with her. A friend of mine mentioned that she's hot. Upon laying eyes on her, the aforementioned set of eyes brightened up. Bloggers nowadays, so horny.



Cheryl.*Sizzle*



Calvin looked different. I was hesitating whether to shout out to him when I first saw him.



Jason Lioh, Ivan, Joan and Rames



Albert and Jason Goh



Bryan, Evelyn and Cheryl



Calvin and Jen



Avril Chan. She has the kind of face that you want to pinch.


These photos belong to Slinky. Please respect his intellectual property. We may have different stands on how we like our pictures used.



Penny and Jason



sei Calvin! He shakes up my photo and goes one step further by touching Sunway/Monash people. Go find Taylor's bloggers lah!


I'm regretting that I never did this with FA.



Group shot



Another one



Chicks. 4 of them! Heaven gave us 4 seasons, but we definitely got more than 4 that day.



Calvin...



...and Evie



The Bosses of Lengmou with the chicks.



Makes you want to be a blogger. The perks you get!


The following were shot by Jen using Bryan's D70s. Inspired by Leech's tutorial. Proves that I can be stupid when neccessity dictates.

Damn I look so stupid in there. Memo to self : Never act cute in front of the camera.

This meet seemed to be rowdier than the previous one. The lighting was better for camwhoring but was more crampy which made walking around more difficult. For those I didn't get to talk to, so sorry. For those I didn't get to camwhore with, I'm even sorrier. I know, no excuse.

I'll steal more pictures and post them up here. Especially the moment of glory shot. Stupid Calvin.. *mumbles*

I'm not forgiving him. Anyway I had my wet dream lah..

The pictures I took using the S45 were not satisfactory as it was not my unit and I am not familiar with it. Looking on the bright side however, the shos turned out pretty decent. Colours were quite natural and pictures were sharp despite the low ambient lighting, apart from those taken using the S45. In short, love thy camera, learn it, sleep with it et cetera.

Anyway, here's my contact details.
