Opening of another waiting

100409 - waited for this day
110409 - felt cheated on this day
130409 - finally opened, but another waiting game.

HDB finally opened their url, for people like me to pay $10 just to wait for our queue number. Did out a spread sheet, complete with pics, cost, location and all other relevant information in selecting our house. Till 2 hrs later, i realize that HDB actually do provide a pdf format of things all in 1! It was like OMFG!

Went on trying to understand my one dimension mechanics as well as torque. With half a day flipping, googling, but to no avail. Gave up and watch sniper.

And the temptation of getting 70-200 f2.8 IS USM is just getting stronger. Like what many would say, absence make the heart fonder. Taking a brief look at my flickr set, i do really say i miss the moments created in 07 during the making/journey of NDP, where everything was about making a difference. I can see myself going thru the same enjoyable journey but a different feel. This time playing more of a mentor, than a student.

Sharing Do's and Don'ts, sharing ideas, encouraging creativity as well as pairing people up to learn some rules of the trades. And i'm really proud to say, i'm no longer the trigger happy me. I only managed to take max 40 pics for the first MCR. Gd or bad, i dunno, but i feel that now; i'm more willing to think before even raising my camera and press the trigger.

The most fulfilling part is that i'm able to walk around, with only 1 lens attached, and work from there.
