Self-portrait

I write this feeling a little shitty (pun intended), with my arse a little sore having spent most of the day sitting on the toilet bowl expelling bowel contents, thanks to my diarrhoea that seemed to have been caused by eating Twisties at nearly 3am. (Yes, it does contain milk solids, which I’ve taken together with my Lactaid pill – but somehow I don’t know if that’s the cause of it as my diarrhoea felt pretty violent.)

Earlier in the afternoon at about 12pm plus, Shawn, Wai Hong, and I went to the new Pizza Uno shoplot still located at Taipan, but now three-storeys high. Looks pretty clean-cut, modern and all that, but somehow I prefer the old, cosy atmosphere that looked as if it has some classic Italian charm to it.


Fried mushrooms.


Ugly pic, but I just wanted to show you guys Shawn’s Perrier water (with a glass of sliced lemons) which he willingly paid for RM9 wtf.


We went upstairs to eat, and that’s Ma’am doing something.


My all-time favourite aglio olio, but it didn’t taste as nice as before for some reason.


Shawn ate a whole chicken @___@, which smelled very good – apparently it was marinated with ginger or something.


Another look of upstairs from the same angle. Apparently there’s another floor higher up reserved specially for functions.


At another angle.


The hallway from the bar? to the dining area upstairs.

Had to go to the toilet once right before I could sink my teeth into my aglio olio, then another time at my Japanese teacher’s house. T____T Right after that, I figured, “Bah can’t take this anymore” and then went back home at about 2.40pm to crap some more and eat some diarrhoea pills and rest.

Last Sunday, after a family dinner at a restaurant in KL to celebrate my maternal grandma’s 70th birthday, I went to Yen’s place to collect some pics (of us being drunk one or two nights before wtf) and asked her to snap some photos of me.

You see, sometimes the bane of being a photographer in occasions and trips and holidays and whatnot is that you tend to NOT have many photos of yourself, sometimes none that are remotely flattering at all. >_> (Other than group pics, which don’t really count.) I didn’t really care at first, until I browsed through my entire collection of pics that were snapped this year to post up as a profile pic in my Facebook or other websites, and found that.. I have a grand total of 2 that are actually nice.

Yeah it does sound pathetic. So I’ve taken small steps to correct this, and the first is to don a thick skin – regardless of having adjectives like narcissistic and vain thrown my way – and ask Yen to snap my photos.

Photographer: Yen
Camera: My Canon EOS 450D

All post-processing was done by myself.

#1 The only pic that was snapped by Shawn.

#2 Me in between the line of being blur and wide-eyed curiosity.


#3 I like this pic for reasons I cannot explain – it looks like it was in a casual setting, as if I was trying to say something.

#4 Rancangan tergendala sebentar dengan gambar Shawn bersama jari tengahnya.

#5 Deep in thought.

#6 Actually this pic of me is damn ugly, but I’m posting it because I thought I looked like Alvin from this angle WTF.

#7 Cheeky grin – sorta.

#8 God seriously, I look like Alvin from this angle too wtf.


#9 Classic “fuck off” look.

#10 Why so serious wtf.


#11 Nothing that special about this pic except for me jumping with nearly the same pose all the time wtf.

The end yay. Comments, any favourite pic that you may like, criticisms etc are more than welcome.

Hrm..i am not so happy with the impromptu shots.. maybe we should arrange for another casual shoot… just like the other time… but better perspective..

maybe we can find a graffiti wall… it will actually be nice if you use your ‘WHY SO SERIOUS’ look on a seriously damaged wall.
