Wie goht's? How are you doing?

i'm back in Zurich, again. one week after another. aiyooo. good thing is, there's free internet at reasonable uploading speed and macarons. bad thing, my roster is messed up and i'm now trying my best to straighten it so that i can make it back to Penang and KL for my grandma's birthday celebration and to pay respect to my late Mum. 5th year anniversary. looking back at the 5 years, string of events come and go just like that. time flies. i haven't attended much family reunion ever since i started flying. like they said, it comes with my job package. i shan't whine much here, before it eats me up emotionally. yes, call me an avoider. smiles.

christmas is just around the corner! are you feeling it yet? while coming up with my christmas wishlist, i suddenly recalled the ads i came across in Zurich's airport earlier today. Nikon D3100 featuring Jamie Oliver.

i'm afraid this is the biggest photo size i can find.

nikon D3100

For the newcomer to D-SLRs, the intelligent, improved Guide Mode, as seen on the D3000, gives you step-by-step instructions of how to change the camera settings. This means you not only get the picture you want but it helps you to understand how it was achieved so you can develop your photography skills. You can even view sample images of what you can expect from each setting, for example if you change the aperture or shutter speed settings.

isn't it the most brilliant gift for myself? apart from the Chanel items, which one of the most expensive one i decided to sell it off in order to build up my Nikon D7000 fund. yes, i'm more of a gadget-y girl than a branded bag girl (altho i have quite a number in my closet) hee.. anyway the best part is, it's half the price of the D7000 and has got a lighter and smaller body! i feel excited already!! could be over-excessive sugar intake from my coke light lemon and Sprungli's chocolate mousse cake. LOL however, everyone would be able to tell that i'm one amateur photographer from my camera. but what the heck, it's the skill and creativity that counts? :)) feeling high over the DSLR. have been wanting for one for the longest time! *humming wooh wooh, for the longest time~ breathe breathe.

my past off days have been quite a satisfying one. attended class as per normal on Monday and Tuesday. on Wednesday, i went for the German Scheme Language interview, which i flunk. not advisable as well cause it will commence during my pre-lims and final year exam. and roster will suck anyway so i had to let it go. made my decision (sort of) on the aviator. and at night, watched Rapunzel with Jesslyn in town, finally. the story line is so fairy-tale romantic and touching that it made me feel like going back to Disneyland again. not cool, i know. haha! and on Thursday, did a Jakarta turn and met up with the old E447 under Mr Lau's colonial rule. and had a small birthday celebration for him.



the attendees.

GUESS
the teacher, the lawyer, the doctor, another doctor cum magician, the human resource-r, the litterateur, the banker, the chemist and the stewardess! x))

Happy Birthday Mr Lau QH.
disclaimer: he's only a FEW years elder, despite me calling him mister :)

that was Thursday. and on Friday, i did my mani pedi, attended Finance lesson and left halfway for work. and here i am, back again in Zurich. i am surprised that the weather improved from the last few days. from -7 to 7degree and the sun was out the entire day! town area was pretty congested with people doing Christmas shopping. sweet. all the shops will be closed tomorrow, including the convenient stores. looks like i'll be rotting in the room tomorrow, after breakfast. i might be out at Sprungli doing my reading and people watch.

until then, enjoy your Sunday. go out, explore and have some fun with family! do something out of the norm and discover the goodness in life. be blessed :))
