Why it? Cos':
- I want bokeh badly
- Something compact
- But most importantly, something CHEAP, haha. Got it for $80, it's the cheapest you can find among all lens.
Some test shots, all unprocessed:

My 2nd 'official' kite flying (yea, i.e. I went specially to a field, just to fly kite, haha). Not so bad, cos' my kite is a fish design (special!!!)... and fish swims well in water, not in the sky you know, haha... must compliment, as it managed to 'swim' sustainably, very little downtime (in fact, no down time? Only time was when there's not a trace of wind), say 10%? Well, it did not fly as high as the rest, but comparing to my lst 'official', it's much much better. :)
And thanks Ivan for repairing my kite the previous time, keke.
Oh, it's Kiwi's first official leh~ *claps* fun anot? It's not a question actually... cos' you can say only say yes! hahaha
And we saw a gigantic octopus kite. When i say gigantic.... it's ReaLLy giGanTic! Got lights installed on it somemore... cool... what's more, it flew real high... mine was pale in comparison x3, keke.

Haven't been shooting for very long, getting rusty, argh... I need: 1. wider aperture (nice bokeh!) like f2.8, f1.4, and 2) compact lens... 50mm f1.8? 30mm f1.4? 20mm? 28mm?
But first thing first, get my butt moving and start shooting, haha.
//
And I haven't been exercising... guess I still prefer 打打杀杀，hahaha. Maybe I should start to scout for lessons... kick-boxing ah, pilates ah, hot yoga ah or back to wushu? HmmMm... tsk tsk...

Will you miss home?
It seems like a trend, or an "in-thing" to travel, especially once you start work...
A way to relax and get away from the work and stress; to a totally new place...
But while in the foreign land,
do you ever miss home?
Do you ever think of your loved ones back home?
Well, I don't know for you,
but I do.
It's fun, and all senses appeal to the new things we would experience in the new places.
"How I wish the holiday wouldn't end!"
I would,
but it would mean to spend them with my loved ones,
for home is my only constant longing place.
Tangible, and intangible.
p.s.: Ah... I am such a “宅女”in this sense, wahaha~

Olympus Pen E-P1 Preview
This camera is a beauty: 
It's the first Micro Four Thirds camera from Olympus. In short, it is a compact digital SLR. Can you imagine?! A compact-like dSLR!!! :) It will be so convenient for me to bring it around!
And I really like its retro design! It's actually following the design of its old Olympus Pen series' (yea, the Olympus Pen series, which is a half-frame film camera, was very popular back in the 50's-mid 80's), hence its name "Pen E-P1".
