i really like the color tone of this lens.
maybe it's just the white balance setting. i guess i'll leave this to the pro.
so let's go back to the picture.. ok so there aren't much to talk about in this picture. you see what you see. that's it. bye bye
susie if u're reading: i'll bring u there. brace yourself.
i had a guangzhou trip last week and it was ok. gz is a better place during winter when it's not as hot and humid. the cooler temperature make our beloved 同胞 more tolerable.
this trip confirmed what i've suspected: gz food sucks. at least they have mcdonald's but even that tastes a little weird in gz. the fries just isn't right.
speaking of fries, recently i got this craving of those super fatty fries that's made of real potato. i tried those somewhere in the US with deep fried garlic on top. another topping of choice would be that Hispanic kinda thing with lots of cheese and ground beef. served with chopped fresh tomato, it's one of the dishes u should try b4 u die. hohoho.
maybe i should open a little restaurant just to sell those. that way i will die at a very young age.
another boring day..
so today i went to sham shui po.. again. i was looking for components for my beloved but very much dated g4 cube without much success.
first, the only wireless option i have is the airport card that provides a mere 801.11b connection. this is pretty weak given the physical setup at my place. and the card doesn't come cheaply, even for a used one. the usb receiver route won't work neither becoz the cube has only usb 1.1...
second, i'd like to upgrade the video card to a more respectable GF6200. the stock one is a rage 16mb.. or is it 8mb? it simply doesn't cut it anymore with all the latest features and eye candy. a GF6200'd bring the cube up to speed for the time being. this will most probably be the last upgrade one could perform to a 7-year-old machine coz anything newer would be out of reach.
at least i'm not trying to upgrade a IIe. hah!
today is a good becoz:
1. the weather is nice;
2. it's not too hot;
3. it's proven that my father doesn't have cancer.
hohohoh. tmr i'll go to sham shui po and have snake soup again. yum yum.
what a bargain. it takes light in, it focuses, it shoots... just like any other lens...
oh well. u can google its reviews and samples. it's sharp enough and the bokeh is pretty enough for an average joe like me. and it's pretty fast, too.
considering the price, hey it's a steal!
tonight i went to yoshinoya after my accounting class. as usual i ordered the chicken bowl. the only difference is that i ordered iced tea instead of coke.
the yoshinoya iced tea tastes very funny: it tastes just like ricola. it's like drinking a candy.. hm.. yuck!
the accounting class is practical in a way that the teacher actually shows the students how to do everything. it's a hands-on class. nothing about the theory, just pure operational stuffs, and it shows. there is this funny atmosphere within the class. from the jokes and reactions one can clearly sense that these are working class ppl. it's firmly in their mindsets: i'm not a boss. boss is bad. boss is dumb but somehow they make money all becoz i'm good.
i think it goes round and round and in the end, they will always be working class. it starts from their own mindsets.
