HO! HO! HO!

It's definitely that time of the year once again.

All together now:

"W-I-S-H    L-I-S-T!"

Let's start now shall we? Please note that this year I have clearly cut down the list to half. Ahihihi... sign of maturity? hahaha I would hope so. Santa? Please? Pretty please?

Wish list means, I wish. I can't buy due to non-existent budget, therefore feel free to give me any on the list. hahahahahar!!!

1. There's no going around about it, but I want this: 

Nikkor 85mm 1.4 ! Enough said.

2. If rumors are true... the iPad Mini. 

Retails at $250-350 (the lowest-end model). I never wished for an iPad. Solely because of it's size. I got my trust ipod touch and it's size and function suits me fine. It's just like having an extra thick hanky in the bag. I wished on a tablet of another brand... coz of it's 7-inch size. But I really want an Apple. VIOLA!!! So an Apple I shall wish to have: (for size comparison, a regular iPad is on the left and the iPad mini on the right). Perfect for my small messenger bags). 

These pictures appeared on a Chinese blog. Apparently it's a photo of how the iPad mini will look like although nothing is yet confirmed as of press time. Rumored release date is October 10. Hope it's true. Hope  I'd get hit with an iPad mini on my head, I wouldn't mind the bruises. hahaha. Isn't it perfect?

3. Macbook.

Enought said. (Oh, wait... I just need to say, this would be the perfect partner for my photography). Ahihihi

4. YARNS!!!

Lots and lots of yarns! Why is there shortage of good yarns in this city? And if you do find one, why is it expensive? P 475 a piece. For me, that's expensive. Oh well...

(My own photo of the yarns)

5. Crochet hooks. 

Isn't this just too cool? I could yarn a day away! Ehem... while you're at it... you may include the clay I can put on the handle for comfort. hahahahaha! Shameless, ain't I?

6. And last but not the least:

I wish for world peace and good will to all men!

I, thank you.

Have you got your wish list done yet?

HO HO HO!!!

ahihihi...I just can't help but say that.

So have you cooked up your wishlist yet?

Finally!!!
The video that I had been whacking my head with in how to compress is finally done. I finally realized I only had to ask Fred how to do it.
Thank YOU!!!
Plus, YouTube asked for a dispute claim coz apparently this vid contains a 3rd party whatever. Hehehehe. But all's well now. The audio's been de-muted.
You may have already seen this vid on my FaceBook or Youtube but this one's the full edited version.
Four years in Advertising school and I finally make my masterpiece!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
(I was fooling around with someone elses' Macbook, the photobooth application amazed me somehow.)

Need to let the brain slow down now. Too much editing, compiling, photos, videos and according to Fred, 'things you refer to as ET AL.' HEHEHE

As early as 8am yesterday we had been scrapping up some bits to put together for a music slideshow. And by 6pm, I think we did it.
Music fades out, fades in. We have memorized every single detail of every picture. And for Fred, he have become an expert of nailing down those mili-seconds of the time line.
Ok, that's it.
Like really it. Hehehe
Not complaining though but my LSS which I thought Id be bringing to the ends of the earth has just been replaced. HAHAHAHAHA
And that is a clear indication it's all done. We did a good job.
Music slideshow will be shipped soon. Dont know when. Ive not decided on a cover photo yet.
Thank YOU!!!
We did it again.
Thank YOU for enduring friendships.
Thank YOU for the patience.
Thank YOU for the free lunch. hehehe. (Thanks Fred)
Oh the photos above? Fred had a Macbook laying around, just waiting for me. While it was his turn to do the sound editing (which was most of the time actually), I fooled around with the Mac. Amazed with its photobooth application. I made one hilarious video but apparently the file's too big too upload so right now as Im writing this blog, Im trying to whack my brain how to compress movie files. It should be elementary but I cant seem to figure it out yet.
Do you ever get the feeling that the minute you finish a project you think it's the coolest thing on earth? Then you stop, rest and think that maybe the others wouldnt be as impressed? hehehe. Oh well, I believe we did a pretty good job.
After all the crazy happy frenzy of the past weeks, no more reunions, no scheduled parties... then I lose some weight!!! (why didnt they go away BEFORE the reunions and parties and trips???HAhahaha.
That's me, all excited and ready to clean up the slideshow details. Next thing I know the clock says 5.30 in the afternoon. Im still on the same chair. Still with the Mac. Thank goodness for the Mac. hahahahaha!
