LC-A+ Test roll

Okay, so I've learned from experience that its important to have a test roll for every new analogue camera you buy so that you would be familiarized with its settings and other basic stuffs. When I had my La Sardina for the first time, I was too careful to use it and I felt like every roll is fragile thus I have to only use it in special occasions. Not to mention the fact that I haven't found a decent processing lab for my films. That time, I was really very cautious. I was just a newbie in the Lomography world plus there was no one I know back home that uses lomo cameras like me. I was used to my DSLR all the time plus I started liking this hobby when I was in Korea so yeah, you can tell how it is. :)

Anyways, now that I've been a bit more knowledgeable about lomography than I was months back, - though I'm still learning everyday; and after reading the book and manuals that came with my camera, I loaded film and gave it a test roll! For a couple of days I took shots around the house, and our neighborhood. During the day, at night, I used multiple exposures and the different ISO settings (one of the things my La Sardina doesn't have) which I was really excited to try. Here are some of of my favorite shots from the bunch:

flowers are one of my favorite subjects. :)

I was very happy about the results, and I was glad I did the test roll 'cause I'm a little more familiar using it now and I wouldn't have to worry whether I did set it up right or not. Although, you would never be really sure of the outcome of your roll. As the Golden Rule nos.8 and 9 of Lomography says, You don't have to know beforehand what you captured on film - afterwards either. :)





Lomography Golden Rule no. 6 - Don't think.










The rest of the shots can be found in this album from my Lomohome. Feel free to check it out. :)

Just a Happy Thought. ;)

Since tomorrow is our Final exam for our Korean Language Class, I have subjected myself to dedicate this day to study religiously. I have always loved this class because its very fun, and our professor is super nice and patient that's why I'm really sad that its gonna end. Er, actually, it already formally ended last week, we'll just take the exams tomorrow. Hihi. :)

Anyways, before I start studying, I stumbled upon this article which kind of made me think. Yes, its one of those list of things you should, or should not do and whatever stuffs people make in the internet. I'm not saying that I will strictly follow it, but reading some of it and knowing these ideas can in reality give you a better perspective in life. :)

So yeah, if you're interested, here's the link : 30 Things to Stop doing to Yourself

Have fun reading! As for me, back to studying! ;)

5 and more reasons to be happy ☀

Today is one the happiest days of my life since I've come here to Korea. Horaay! ☺Its because lately, I've been worrying about a lot of things and I really can't help it. Though I really am the type who worries a lot, but, it just heightened here! :| (Oh god, maybe I'm getting old?) Loll or maybe its because of the fact that I have to be ten times responsible of my actions since there's nobody else who's gonna take responsibility for me anymore. Its not like I'm dependent back home, its just that I can't call on my parents nor my bestfriend anytime I need a little help.

So anyways, back to my happy times!

The reason - or rather reasons why my day is ultimately happy today is because:

1. I've already bought my own Sci Calc for our Stat class! ☺ I was hoping I could just borrow but I can't find someone who haven't had their calculators lent so I decided to just buy one.

2. And because of that, I can already answer our Stat HW faster and more convinently! ☺(Imagine getting covariance, standard deviations etc. with the use of a phone calcu/laptop calcu??!!)

3. Aside from the calculator that I bought, I was also able to finally buy a decent comforter (I have been turning off the aircon at night since day 1, good thing my roommates were kind enough to understand my awful situation, hehe) and that bread from the bakery inside the grocery that I was always coming back for (I've been going to that section for a couple of time already just having their free taste and not buying)

4. Our Tuesday class is OFFICIALLY cancelled! (The class is supposed to start on October but the professor won't be able to come anymore) That means 2 days off (excluding weekends) for us! ☺

5. The weather today is so fineee! (the past days were already cold for me, I've becoming poikilo again :|) but today, its just like my kind of weather :)

6. Something top secret! :") ♥

7. And last but not the least.. this actually is the highlight of my day, MY PACKAGE FINALLY ARRIVED! Wohooooo ☺ I tracked it last night and there was some kind of delay so I thought it would be lost or something so I really am happy that it finally arrived!

If there would be one lesson that this day taught me is that Good things really come to those who wait. I did, so all these good things and more happened which made my day extra happy today. ;)

Sleep tight everyone! (I'm going to sleep now with my newly bought comforter, with the aircon already turned on, HOHO :>>)

Has anyone seen my other half?

"Everybody's afraid to get hurt, to get rejected and so am I. I have been getting rejections so many times it almost drained all the courage left in me. But if I can't love again, if I, am not able to recognize even just the possibility of having someone that can actually love me for me, I - I guess that scares me more."

This is what happens when I watch too much series in one day, hoho :x

Stay (+)

"Thinking positively means hanging on to hope and looking for new possibilities at the time when life's gotten too hard. It means striving against its challenges, however extreme. It means hanging on to what is good in yourself if everything else gets swept away and valuing your compassion, your warmth, your capacity to find beauty. There is always the sky, there is always a dewdrop on a weed."

Just something to ponder on tonight. Sweet dreams! xo
