Don't let it consume you

Too much pain, too much hatred, too much of ungratefulness can be very consuming. On your perceptions, kindness, relationships... everything. The healthy way to grow in the harshness of life is probably the ability to shake it off your shoulder and hit the 'reset' button every night before sleep. But we're not machine made, and we often let the emotions, unfairness, and all that negativity build up in us. Until we tweak our personality and values without even realising it. 

The song drown me with its familiarity and nostalgia. 

"We are not broken, just bent. "

I'd like to believe that we can be fixed.

No, I'd always thought anything and everything could be fixed, could be undone, wound would heal, scar would fade... and eventually, all of us will get to go home, we get to go back to being whoever we were in the first place.

But how true can that be?

One step at a time, I will find my courage, with whatever help that I could find, to get rid of the sense of isolation that I've accumulated within over these years.

Start with trying to be grateful for life. For all the small happenings in life.

We are not broken, just bent.

Day Trip to Cotswolds

With my rising interest to get into photography recently (probably after watching too many eps of DigitalRevTV), I decided that it's a great opportunity to go outdoor for some good shots when Wayne invited me on very short notice to go for a short road trip with him to Cotswolds. To be completely honest, I'd never put my camera in good use as it's constantly being served in Auto mode. 😬

That few informative video tutorials on Youtube have given me a brief but slightly more substance than what I used to know about apertures, shutter speed, ISO and what not. Took a few shots, with different settings in mind, and though the outcome is not entirely 'pro', I still manage to see the difference already. 😛


















Had so much fun being the photographer instead of giving way to my vanity to be 'in' the photo. This marks my first step to join in the amateur photographer wannabe. 😛 Being typical, once I started thinking about the technical stuff, I forgot to plan and think on the composition of the photo. 😪But it's fun. I look forward to improve!

What's the best iPad mini cases?

Hey hey!! Back in action after bumping around different platforms! This time I think I sort of realise that I find myself keep coming back to blogspot so that should mean something, shouldn't it?

Anywaysssss, been wanting to change my iPad mini cover for some time now, as the current one feels kind of bulky in a way.


The leather makes the device much more thicker than it should be, so for someone like me who do NOT like to waste any of my physical energy with technology (because technology is meant to make you feel soooo easy and effortless!), I think I need a really slim case.

After doing a lil bit research here and there, I 'sadly' find that there aren't too many cases that are really slim. Most of it refer back to the basic Apple Smart Cases, be it the original or knockoffs.

I mean, to think about it it is kind of boring, but I guess plain is what makes it more durable that you won't feel the need to change it again and again. But the price point of £55 for a case does set me back a little. When it's just a case that doesn't come with stylus pen.

The next one that caught my eye was the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover.

Having a slim keyboard does tempt me a little, since I'm starting to get really hooked with doing all the work on my iPad. Yet the greed does help to thicken the case slightly, and weighing the needs between slim and convenience, it's just tough choice for me, especially at the price of £69.95, I need more time to think. 

Is it normal that I spent so much thoughts in merely deciding which iPad case to buy? LOL.
