NDP 07 Preview, originally uploaded by Lobinhoot.

What u see here is an excellent picture (at least to me). But what happened while this pic was taken, was a terrible experience!! The anxiety and thrills and excitement and adrenalin rush, prior to the NDP Preview shoot were all dashed when some authorities decided that it was not very appropriate to have the room’s wondow opened. But the problem wasn’t about the opening of the window. It was about why the authorities did not inform the relevant building representatives that there were some kind of concerns during that period? *Sigh* So much for the dissemination of information. Anyway, its over. And I’ve more or less gotten over it. At least for now… When I think back about this incident, I will no doubt be very upset. Where are my human rights and what ever happened to “complying” with the rules and regulations? BAH! Yeah, we all wanna do our job well. Who doesn’t? Time to re-think and “re-position” some people now, guys…





Majulah Singapu-ra!!!

NDP 2007 – NE Show 1 – 14 Jul 07, originally uploaded by Lobinhoot.

My first official trip down to Marina Bay. It was an eye-opening experience. Met alot of very, very familiar faces all over the place. From Suntec, to Marina Square, to Marina Bay… It was nice. =D I didn’t stay throughout the entire parade, cos hippo was starving by the time the last man of the marching contingent got out of the floating platform. So I gotta rush to get her food, otherwise my “poor” hippo would have fainted. Hahaha!

This year’s NDP by the Bay is really some sight to behold. We’ve got the usual flypasts. The state flag flypast is closer to the crowd. There’s the speed boats from the Navy. There’s also the Commandos abseiling from the Sheare’s Bridge. And many more attractions. But! Yes, but… I was with my buddy as we walked to the pass office to change out passes and we were talking. So this year we have so much stuffs and attractions this year. What are we gonna do next year? And the following? Till the new Stadium is done up. Wat next? Hahaha… Well, its definitely beyond me to think of such things. I will jus do what  I do best – capture those memorable moments…
