Are you ready to roll?

I normally will be asked what to expect when one becoming a special education. I said, for someone like me, without proper training in the special education, expect the worst. So in case things don’t go that great, you won’t be so down as u have mentally and physically prepared for it.

This is very contrary to the other advise people will give, as people would say expect the best, shoot for the star.. But if the star is not shining at all..?

So am i ready to roll? I never think I am ready for anything, always there will be a worries and doubt of my capability in performing something. All I have is, what if, what now question .

But here is the thing that make me alive. Things like, when I am teaching the kids ,

Me: (showing a picture of gasing). This is gasing. (Then pointing at the picture again and ask the pupil). What is this?

Pupil : Paper! ( answering like there is nothing wrong wit it )

honestly , when this kind of thing happen , I will be cracking out loud. Especially when I tried to explain the it twice or more. But all they see is the paper.

Another scenario happened yesterday. In my English class , I am introducing the words boy, girl , man and woman . boy and girl is easy as I asked them to stand up if they are a boy or a girl. Then when it come to man, they were kind of lost.

So I give and example

Me: Man is like cikgu Ali. Now anybody can give me another example of a man (of course this one is in bahasa ya…)

Guess what the answer

Pupil: Superman!

So how would u handle the class? There is nothing wrong with their answer actually. They have the ‘thinking-outside-of-the-box’ kind of thing…

I do always read about joke as such, I do found it funny, but when it happen to myself. i have a blast! So are u ready to roll in special education?

You will not only roll, u will rock the world!!!

Photographer wanna be …

Bukan photographer tak suka bergambar ke? This is what I got from my fren when I keep asking them to take my photo using my DSLR …

Well… CORRECTION .. I am NOT a photographer (yet :P).. I am a photographer –wanna-be …. and yes I like to take photo .. and I like my photo to be taken too… sebagai bahan bukti .. that I have been there.. becoming model-wanna-be juga la sikit2.. manatau … har3….but seriously ….its not wrong, right ? (perasan!!)

I was told to find a photographer BF .. so .. here to my BFF … sapat2 p bikin tu passport… So we can take each other photo… I am very sure u know how I want my pix to be .. but 1st thing 1st , we must travel together!!!

Traveling is not easy if all alone … mesti tiada pix of own face .. scenery melulu jak tu … ..lau begitu itu .. bagus bili postcard seja ..kan ? lagi santik ..and its by professional … nda buang karan & money… ke3…

Traveling berduet also hard .. nanti u take my pix, I take urs… lau honeymoon… mcm p honeymoon sendiri.. so to R&C..… for ur next travel plan… I am here .. to capture ur moment TOGETHER…. where are we going again? Macau? My back is pack already ….

So , what is the best way to get our face IN the photo while traveling alone? Get someone we don’t know to take the photo ? use tripod? well, I heard that is it not secure to do so, as I was told that the someone might just run away wit our camera … plus .. do u trust that barely-know-person to pigang our cam ? and using tripod is so leceh.. barat tu mo bawa… and masa setup tu … skali org langgar … lagi la haru biru merah jingga and all the colour will turn out….

Any tips?

he always said that he is only an amateur photographer… i have been following his progress ( in photography ..) he evolve amazingly…..in a short time ….

i am very honored to have the opportunity to assist him in her last pre wed shoot.

and looking at his work style.. i would say all he wanted to do is to make the couple feel comfortable ( well not many is at ease when the camera is focusing on them ..)

and for sure , he is hard to please with his own work… he want the BEST shoot…. and wallaaaa.. the output is magnificent.  for a proof to believe …..pay a visit to www.bennyliew.com .. ( its free of charge ok … :P)
