30mm 1.4

Got 2 lenses from my friend and i so love them. More of the 30mm 1.4 than the 10mm one. Well, i guess that i've been using the 30mm more.. given my subjects.

Haahahha.. what a lovely fantasy!

What I loved Jamie Dunn and the Morning Crew

Listen to this and you'd laugh till tears roll down your cheeks.



Michael Owen works in a cafe and used to work in South Africa acquiring snakes for reptile parks. The Morning Crew called him up enquiring about the acquisition of a anaconda (or aneconda as they spelt it on the CD) for a reptile park. Now, Michael Owen calls his appendage Anaconda.. listen and see what happens!

From The Best of Jamie Dunn & the Morning Crew: Volume 2
B105's Gotcha! - Aneconda.

My fave morning show when i was back in Aussieland.

Ever rescued beach whales?

The call came on early morning. The radio alarm had just gone off and i was listening to my favorite radio station, Brisbane B105 fm.

The news came on, and there were reports of 3 whales being beached at a beach 1hr's drive away and appeals were made for the public to come and help to save them. They need water, cloth, and people to help them get back to the sea.

Immediately, i sat up in bed, woke up my flatemates and went... "BEACHED WHALES!!!" .. Want to go and help? One of them declined as she had classes in the morning.

So, two of us, took my little car and went to help the whales. Along the way, we kept listening to the radio... and reports kept coming in, people were asked to bring buckets, pails, towels, ketchup and such.

Yes, yuo heard right, ketchup.

As we got closer, we got more and more excited when we saw the line of traffic going to the beach.. and people running...

When we got there... yup... there were 3 'beached whales' alright.

Why do the dutch have such funny ads?

I watch ads all the time when the television is on in Netherlands. UNfortunately, H is a channel surfer.... which was kind of sucky cos i learnt so much Dutch ( korting, huiskamer.. etc) while watching the ads.. and they have the funniest ones. i literally have to fight the remote control from him to watch the ads! Saw the previous Eneco one?



This was 1 advertisement that both of us really enjoyed watching.. and couldn't stop smiling.

p/s: Did you know that Heineken is dutch?
