Checking back all the earlier posts, I realized the one thing that I have never missed for the past three years was posting CNY greetings. This year, I’m again a little late on posting the message, but hey, we do celebrate CNY till Chap Goh Meh.

Here wishing you all good health, great success and abundant of joy in the year of the Water Dragon! Now, give me my angpow

Paintball – Better Safe than Sorry

Han Beng — Sun, 07 Aug 2011 07:42:18 +0000

I must admit, wearing protective masks during paintball games is a nuisance. First of all, I feel suffocated breathing through the mask, which leads to the second why, it impairs my movement. Wearing the mask is not unlike wearing a motorcycle helmet, although it is not as heavy, it restricts my vision, my hearing and for sure I don’t feel as agile as without it. All being said, I was relieved that the marshal imposed masks-on rule after I saw what actually happened to my friend. He would have become blind, or half a panda (: if he wasn’t wearing that mask.

A few more shots before calling it a day.

Kaiching’s Moment

The hall was silent when Kaiching performed the magical Sonata Pathétique by Beethoven. It felt sad, wistful yet calm and peaceful. It’s hard to explain but it raised a mix bag of feelings when it reached my soul.

I took only a few frames that night. The clicking sound of the shutter was breaking the silence and I could sense people at the back staring at me..

Climb Every Mountain

A dream that will need,
All the love you can give,
Every day of your life,
For as long as you live.

Climb every mountain,
Ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow,
Till you find your dream.
(Climb Every Mountain, The Sound of Music)

For my dear sis. You are not alone in your IM endeavor.

Kiddos!

I visited my friend Low’s house during Chinese New Year for a potluck dinner. After downing the food and trying our hand at Texas hold ‘em, we had some portrait fun. The kiddos were fantastic.

Here’s a few images of those talented young models. So natural (or was it clueless ) in front of the camera.

Little Cassy here was very shy, and agile. My friend Warren had some good exercise trying to get her in front of the camera.

I’m Bond, James Bond.

Happy [belated] Chinese New Year 2011

According to my calculation using the suànpán (Chinese abacus), 3/7 of the previous posts were about festive greetings.

Without further delay, I’ll now present to you the latest addition to our “tradition”.

Gong Xi Fa Cai! And may you experience a joyful and auspicious rabbit year!

Happy New Year 2011
