But still I wasn't really expecting this much snow on this part of Canada(Even though I'm living on the "Great White North").
Well, enough of the view.....time for snow shelving......@#%*#!...... Labels: Notes and Thoughts

When Photographer Meets Would Be Educators.....
The photographer was applauded by the physical appearance of these potential young teachers.....
Well, not exactly.....but I was having a bit of trouble picturing these university grads teaching in elementary schools, which is the program allow them to do once they're complete. They're more conscious about their looks and they're very intimidating when it comes to communicating, which is somewhat common among people who work in this sector (my parents in law who work in the Ministry of Education in Korea share some of these characters, for example). But their physical appearance.....let's just put this way.....they're so damn hot!!! And they're not afraid to show off their bodies if I allowed them to.
This is when I wished I hadn't had my elementary school in Asia and wished these people are my teachers.....
But again, do I really want to? Labels: Notes and Thoughts

From Vietnam to Paris
I'm sure everybody in the media would be frustrated by the constant exposure of entertainment news which by now filled our magazine stands, TVs and webs. This booming sector of news also generate battalions of paparazzis devote to capture images of celebrities in the most humiliating way in order to feed the hungry mass. Worst still with digital capture device widely available almost anyone can have a chance to get a picture of celebrities' ugly side(That is if you seen one).
A while ago I was watching a documentary on CBC talking about the phenomenon. Though I was aware of this long ago but watching how far down this sector had become just make me shook my head away. But what really hits me is the article published not so long ago by Telegraph that draws comparison of two photographs shot by the same photographer Nick Ut. The first photograph was captured in 1972 in Vietnam where Nick photographed a 9 yeas old Vietnamese girl striped naked running toward him after she got burned by napalm bombs. The second one was captured recently which crying Paris Hilton was sitting behind the police patrol car in LA. Both photographs marks his career as a photographer but at the same time symbolized the change in mass culture.
By the way, as if this is not chaotic enough an American cable network has been planning on airing a reality TV show in which photogs compete to get a 'money shot' of celebrities. This has been in production for sometime now and don't know(or don't wanna know?) if it is on air now..... Labels: Notes and Thoughts

Happy New Year(Sort Of)
2007 is something of nightmare for me. From diarrhea while working on the project in Florida to collapse of my agency..........It seems like nothing is going well with the life I'm trying to pursue. Though financially income grew steadily compare to 2006 thanks to the job I resent.
But just when you think it would be better on 2008 psychics gave you a shitty forecast: 2008 will be even worse than 2007. Seems like I'll embrace waves of troubles and disasters yet again for the coming months.
And I guess this is probably why I don't make new year resolution this year - knowing that things will not improve any time soon any resolution I make now will not be fulfilled. But I do have a one hope which i made a while ago - leaving the job I currently on and doing something I'm really passionate about and make a living out of it.
Well, guess I'll stop ranting over here and instead wish everyone a very happy new year. And may all the resolutions you make be fulfilled before 2009. Labels: Notes and Thoughts
