Going on a 1 week holiday. Desitination Perth

Bye bye Singapore! Boliaosia.com will be taking a 1 week break without any posts. I will be going on a 1 week holiday (14 Sept to 21 Sept) to Perth Australia! It’s actually a holiday/convocation trip and it will be the last week I get to enjoy myself before starting the process of job hunting when I come back. Although I have been to many countries in the past when I was young, this is actually my first time venturing out of Singapore in 10 years!! Yup, I never even go to Malaysia sia. I feel like a frog in the well.

Preparations are more or less than and I will be flying off in a few hours time. I bought Jetstar tickets to save cost but found after I bought the tickets that SIA had a new promotion which is only slightly more than Jetstar … Suay sia. It’s around 1 hundred bucks more nia. Okay lah, at least I can use the hundred bucks to buy more stuff (trying to think positively).

I bought a new camera for this trip yesterday at Comex. Shawn and I went in the last hour to see if there are any last minute good deals. Some people call it kio sai (pick up shit). It seems like that were a lot of people just like us who wanted to kio sai as it was hard for Shawn to get a parking lot. After twisting and turning around the car park for quite some time, we eventually got a parking lot and went to buy our stuff. Shawn bought a LG 42 inch TV and I bought the Fujifilm F200 EXR. I chose the camera after reading lots of good reviews about it and it was within my budget (okay stretch a bit and need to borrow he he). I’m just a simple point-n-click guy who needs a good idiot proof camera. =)

Here are some pics of my old and new camera …

lousy iPhone cam does not work well in this lighting =P

This is how my new camera looks like. I think it looks good =) I like the feel of it.

Pic of a Nikon D90 (ar $2k!!) in right in front of me in my house

Shot taken with my new camera. I think it looks good, considering that it is the first time that I'm using it. Idiot proof check - PASS!

Although I have a really nice DSLR camera right in front of me, I can’t use it heh. It belongs to my cousin in Australia and I’m supposed to pass it to her when I’m there. I don’t know how to use it anyway heh. Too cheem lah. I might get one in the future though, provided I have the money and skills.

Okay got to go bathe soon and head for the airport. Boliaosia.com will be back around the 22nd of September or a little later!!

See ya guys =)

P.S: Because of my convocation, I can’t attend the Singapore Blog Awards ceremony =( My friend Jasmine and her boyfriend will be going to the event on my behalf instead. Hope they take lots of pictures of the event and maybe pictures of the model bloggers too =P
