My 200th Post!

Believe it or not...i've never imagined myself to actually create a logo out of my name & own a blog! To tell you the truth, when i was younger, i don't like writing & pouring out ideas. It's tiring!! haha...The reason i started one back in March 2008 was also because i thought i could share & sell things! HAAA!!!

Looks like i have better things to fill up these spaces. Photos, new places, information, lifestyle & articles...with all these, not only my photography skills are getting better but also my writing skills tend to pour out easily & naturally on its own.

Thanks to my love ones & the surroundings for the great ideas i get & inspired by...thus, this blog is shared!

So for MY 200TH POST, i wish to share something i came across end of last year, which i think was unbelievably, a great photo taken.

25 December 2009

It was a public holiday & Christmas Day. Everyone took their days off & traveled as it was a long weekend, including my aunt & cuz from JB & papa & bro from Perak. They all came & spent time with us in PJ. I was happy beyond happy as i love when both family & relatives came & spent time together.

That morning, i brought everyone to Pavilion for a relaxing day, just to see the Christmas decors & 'tengok karenah orang' basically. It was a pretty sight with tall trees all around decorated with pretty trinkets & ornaments. I remember that time people took pictures with these trees non stop!

We decided to stop & hang out. And so we went into the little Austin Chase cafe located at Food Republic. It was a rather out of the blue moment for us to enter the cafe & lucky us managed to find seats as there were so many outlets packed with people! Kata cuti kan?...

While sitting, talking & drinking that was when i picked up this magazine!!!...

It's an old issue of National Geographic mag, dated back in Janury 1989. While flipping, i opened the next 2 pages & stared at that particular picture for awhile before realising what it represented. At first, i thought it's some cute colorful buttons or graphics made. Just as i realised it, I then spreaded them closely to my face like 'Whoa!...'


I recaptured it with my camera

Can you actually guess it immediately before having me telling you what it is?
Hmm...or maybe i was the blur & slow one here...hehe.

FYI, this picture represent the 7,000 Muslim worshipers bowing as one in prayer in one of the world's largest mosque, the Istiqlal mosque in Jakarta. Detailed info on this picture can be seen, read & taken from these 2 recaptured pics!


Please click on each one to have clearer view!


Cool right? All the credits to the photograpaher who's skills i have to say, BRILLIANT BEYOND BRILLIANT!! hehee...

I showed to everyone at the table like a small girl showing "Look mummy! I got bitten by a mosquito!!!" (proudly) hehee..well as if ok? haha!

Just as i thought the day can't get any better than this, while we were about to leave the cafe, mama took the mag & showed it to the baristas, asking them if her daughter could have it! They eventually smiled & said 'Go ahead madam!'...I was like 'Serious?!!...WOW!!!...Thanks mama!'. and of course the baristas on duties! ;)

I was really happy. How i feel today has the same happiness i had back then...200th?!!!
Still cannot believe i've written so many articles.

WHOOPIE!
