Malaysia

At the moment I'm in the middle of uni holidays, so I've taken up both a few extra shifts at work and also I'm volunteering at the Revelations Film Festival screening over the next week at the Astor Theater in Mt Lawley. I've had fun these holidays, but I must admit the few days after Melbourne I went a little bit crazy with not much to do and no uni to stress about. There's another week and a half of holidays so I shall try and do the things that I never have time to do, that means uploading prints!

Here's some snaps from when I visited Malaysia for my cousins wedding in the middle of May. I didn't manage to take too many shots because I was too busy shopping and enjoying food (that's a lie, I spent most of it behind a computer trying to get all my assignments completed). But these are the first prints I've uploaded from my Nikon F65 film camera given to me by my uncle in January. They turned out wonderfully and I can't wait to take more on the next roll. The first set developed weren't too good (out of focus, off-centre etc) but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. I'm also using a lens intended for my digital camera, which results in slight vignetting in some of the photos shot in lower lighting. It's cool in some photos, but in others it just looks like I'm trying too hard, when in actual fact I'm just too poor to buy a proper lens that fits my camera. Oh wells, this is the beginning of all the snaps to come!

Oh also, sorry my writing in this post is a little incoherent, I'm exhausted. Sleep time.

I'm currently refreshing my uni results page for it to come out. Apparently they have, but the server is down. Argh.

Happiness?

About being happy? That's not the most important thing. People don't write sonnets about being compatible, or novels about shared life goals and stimulating conversation. The great loves are the crazy ones, and I'm not a fool"

I moved house about 6 months ago and have yet to take some snaps, so here they are! It's much more spacious then my old room and its lovely and light in the afternoon. Urghh I've been home a week since Melbourne and I just can't find anything to do. I can't stand those people who say that they're bored all the time because only boring people say that they're bored... but these holidays just seem to be going by so slowly. It's bizarre that I spent a good 8 months last year doing nothing but do nothing and I didn't seem to get bored once. Oh well, uni timetable is done. Fingers crossed on a three day uni week, wooot! And it starts in 2 and a bit weeks. I think once it starts I won't really be complaining much longer.

One thing that I have managed to do these holidays is become completely obsessed with all forms of trashy high school television shows. At the moment it's Pretty Little Liars. It's so terrible, but I've always dreamed of having my very own Ezra...

I have 3 rolls of film from Melbourne in line to be developed and scan so once they are I will slowly start uploading and spilling the deets.

For the first ten days of the uni break I went to Melbourne with my two best friends Viv and Sarah. We spent ridiculous amounts of money of photobooth snaps amongst other things. Here's a taster.
