Music vs You

I am sure that all of us we definitely listen to music all the time, some of us listen to the music when we are doing assignments, some of us even leave the music player on for 24 hours. For me, yes music is a must in my life. Even when I sleep, I will play the music as well. This is because music can let myself relax a lot and even can express my feeling by choosing different genre of music to listen. Sometimes I dance or play the keyboard along with the music. It helps me in releasing my stress with my assignments. It has become the basic need of my life that without music, I feel something missing in me.

Music colors my life.

What about you?

Guys, are you a PhotograFreak?

As you can see in my title, my question is are you a photography lover? Do you love photography?

I love photography. I'm glad that MMU offer a photography subject. It's not because of the good and professional lecturer for sure, it's because that I got the chance to have my very first DSLR in my life.

DSLR - Digital single-lens reflex camera

I've never thought about that before. Seriously, never. Thus, I'm glad that I could own a DSLR. This machine is so awesome to be explored. You will love it when you start exploring it. Photography is a subjective thing. One might loves where things are captured by this magical machine, one might not loves it. In my words, doesn't matter it's a compact camera, a phone camera or a DSLR, camera is a machines that capture some awesome or lovely moment in your life. It is fun to have it on your hand. Whenever you go, whenever you travel, it always your best friend. I believe that everyone is a natural photography. Everyone has different point of view, has different vision. They see things in different way. This make us unique.

A picture tells a thousand words.

I agree with this statement. But yet, it can be a word for someone, it can be a thousands for someone. This depends on how one interpret the picture. Everyone thinks differently.

I'm a photografreak. Freak that like to play with its DSLR. Yet I'm still a beginner and a learner. You don't need to have a great tools to capture things as you've already have one, your eyes. I heard from someone, there is no good or bad photos. For me, a photo that makes one stop and ponder is a good photos.

Those are some thought I shared with you guys.

What about you?
Do you think you are a photograFreak?

p/s: photografreak is just a term I created for those who likes photography, again, no offence.

Cheers~

Do you play games?

I love gaming so much.
Usually when I have free time, I will play games and mostly online games.
I prefer online games than offline games and this is because I am not so interested on playing with the data of the computer system.
I prefer online gaming so that I can play with the real life players and they may not know my real characteristics and even who I am.
I love MMORPG. MMORPG stands for massively multiplayer online role-playing game. It is fun since everybody can choose their own characters with the freedom of setting the characteristics of the characters. For example, in game, I can choose to be a boy even thought in real life I am a girl.
I will play the offline games only if it is the virtual reality type of games. The Sims can category as a virtual reality game. It can create the character you want and start your life in the digital world. Now I am playing The Sims 3. Your character can eat, can cook, can sleep, can work and even can go for shopping.
Many of us are playing Facebook application games too. It does not spend much time and it is a good entertainment for us student when feeling stress on doing the assignments for whole day.
I play games, do you?

Food Magic

For me, food is like a magic and all the cook is a magician.

I do not know how to cook but I love to eat!

My mom seldom cook for us because she has a lot of works to do.

But my grandmother is a good magician.

She likes to cook everyday even though she's already very old to do the cookings.

She used her hands to bring magic to our family.

It's a wonderful magic that brings our family together. And we will have a happy conversation after the dinner.

I always heard people said that computer brings people together.

But I think that food can also bring people together.

When I try the Indian foods, I taste the spicy, I can share my thoughts with my Indian friends about their food.

It makes me feel closer to the other race.

Some people love to eat Japanese food; some people love to eat Thai food; some people love to eat European food; some people even go to a specific places just to taste their food.

The tasty food makes us want to know more about them, share it with our friends and the joy of it gave us even on the thought of them.

Everyone have different opinions about food.

So what do you think about food?

What is the interesting movie you have watched recently?
