亲爱的爸爸，非常感谢您多年给于我们的爱护。为了我们，您不辞劳苦，到处奔波，毫无埋怨的工作。为了让我们一家人能够拥有一个丰富人生经验，您带我们环游世界，品尝美食，享受人生。这一切，您年少时曾未拥有过，但为了我们，您不惜任何代价，为我们付出一切，就是为了让我们拥有一个美好的明天。这么多年来，您一直默默的支持我。在我坠落深渊，陷入迷惘时，您伸出您的双手来扶持我，一直不断的鼓励我，开导我。您永远是我们的好爸爸，我们一家之主。

现在，您在悉尼和妈妈，妹妹，弟弟会合。您的出现，一定带给他们不少惊喜！希望您和大家玩的愉快。在此，祝天父保佑蒙福您，祝您父亲节快乐！

This blows my mind!!! First, they gave away their album free or any price you wish to pay. Now, they are allowing fans to mess with their music for a minimal fee! Absolutely mind-boggling!! You can download each individual stem track, bass, electric guitar, vocals and drums at 99cents on i-tunes. Next, use garageband or any music editting software for the matter and create your very own unique remix of Radiohead’s Nude. Upload it on to the website and share with world and let them vote. They even made voting widgets for blogs, facebook and myspace so you can put them up on your own site. Is this amazing or what?

This was taken over easter, at the children’s service. Kids are really incredibly easy and fun to shoot. I just felt so carefree and liberated just being there with them.

This is a joy so pure that it pierces my heart. I yearn for joy of this magnitude. The joy of the Lord shall be my strength again.

This post has been long overdue. I wanted to write about how the modern day artist is able to catch on the wave of the Long Tail in Web 2.0. The artist community is probably one of the largest online apart from the Tech Geeks. For the photographers, there’s Flickr and Deviant Art for the digital artist. These portals allow the artists to interact amongst a community and function as a form of portfolio as well.

With the advent of blogs, the artist is now able to develop a new tool, the Blogfolio. That’s right, a Blog that works as a Portfolio as well. Now this really kills two birds with one stone. There’s no longer a need for complicated coding or hiring expensive website designers. They can pretty much do everything for free and by themselves. The Blogfolio idea is the one of the latest trend that has captured the minds of many web-based visual artists. This allows them to develop a simple CMS (Content Management System) without any fancy complex html or flash codings.

I believe this not only allows them to enjoy some cost saving without getting external support, it also gives them a better focus on their projects without worrying about website management. The Blogfolio concept also provides as an avenue to interact with their clients and potential clients. It’s really Web 2.0 at work. You literally build a community around the work you do. Past clients who are genuinely touched by your works will leave testimonies, share positive experiences and in some sense help to sell you. What more can you ask for?

I see Jacqueline doing that really well and perhaps, this would be the greater purpose for this blog, to display more of my works. Stay tuned, they will be coming right up.

It’s been a while since I last posted and so many things have happened and it’s getting harder to breathe at times. Let’s have a quick recap of what happened in the past three weeks. 1) My brother has finally left for sydney, leaving me all alone in an empty house. 2) I proposed and she said yes, I will save that story for another time, so we are now busy prepping for the big day. It almost feels very surreal right now that we are looking at hotels and photographers etc. Final Presentations and exams for all my modules are coming right and I have been staying in school till like 11? It’s really crazy. I have so many backdated drafts piling up here, perhaps I will finish up on one later. It’s just crazy.
