Poor Mr Fishy

Yesterday I was standing by a pond at uni with my cousin and there were lots of ripples at the surface of the water so we looked to see what was causing it, and it was lots of tadpole looking fish. Suddenly my cousin goes OMG look at that fish!!!

It was pretty gross. Just a fish lying there, obviously been dead for a while. But what is the first thing we do? Whip out our phones and take a picture of it.

And then on the way home there was the most amazing sunset. And guess what?! I decided not to bring my digital camera that day because I thought I wouldn't need it. I was sooo bummed so I had to take a pic using my phone, and obviously that didn't turn out great.

Just imagine the bright parts looking super deep orange. Yes I know the picture is slanted, I only had one shot  at it okay.

Came home today and found this waiting for me

Hehe FREEBIES. Still using my old lip balm atm but I hope this one is better. At least this has SPF. Unfortunately the offer is gone already, it lasted a few days due to it being on posted on ozbargain...those who visit the site will understand.

Something random: This guy got on the bus today, bought a ticket and then the bus driving said "I like your shirt" to him as he was walking away to find a seat. What was on his t-shirt? A greyscale picture of a posing female wearing a pink bikini. I wonder how his parents let him out of the house wearing that. I don't really have anything against shirts like that, just it is kinda inappropriate in some public places.

Are you a hater of anything?

New phone

Last week I bought a new phone.
I desperately needed to get off prepaid and go on a plan.
I got the HTC Legend which I've heard some mixed reviews about but it is the best phone on offer for my budget.
The phone has been alright so far except for it being a tad laggy, my android market not working and my the phone camera being not too great.
It's a 5mp camera but the main problem is that there isn't a external camera button which makes focusing harder.
I wish I could have the Nokia X6 camera on my phone, that camera is pretty good, Carl Zeiss lens as well...


Old Samsung on the left which lasted me about 2.5 years.
New HTC Legend on the right which has to last me at least 2 years.
My awesome orange camera in the reflection =]

Testing out my camera. Not too bad I guess

What do you do when you get bored of study? Macro shots aren't bad, held against table though

Sunsets don't really work

Bored lying on the Menzies lawn at uni

Look how dirty the bus window is!

Possibly ruining my camera....

Reflection on the car roof

And of course I need to know how well the camera takes photos of food
Not bad

Badminton racquet =[
Yes I'm that hardcore =P

Taken with digital camera. ISO 1600 The noise creates an interesting texture/effect.

Taken with digital camera on the way home on the bus. Burwood Hwy

That's all for now. I have an assignment due in 5 days, 2500 word essay in 10 days, online quiz due in 2 days and a mid sem test in 7 days. Don't think I'll be posting much unless I can get my android market to work and download the blogger app.

Do you use your phone camera much?

I didn't use to but now I probably will.

Photo dump

Been a while since I updated
Hopefully soon I can update daily using my new phone =)
For now, enjoy some photos I've taken over the past week or so
All taken with a point and shoot (cheapo digital camera, not top of the range)

Strawberry flower from the strawberry plant from IKEA

Taken on a rainy day inside the bus

Scary much? ISO 400/800

Not as scary. Box Hill Town Hall at night. ISO 100 see the difference?

Colourful lights. ISO 100, pointed at the traffic light and then quick jolt when taking photo.

45 mins late. JOY! The 11:14 bus actually came before the 10:28 in the end.

Really cool dress friends and I saw. The more I look at it the more I love it.

St Paul's Cathedral, day. Bored waiting for friends at Fed Square.

St Paul's Cathedral, night. Handheld, ISO 200 or was it 100? Damn sign in the way.

Fed Square. Reflecting lights with leaves.

Out of focus Flinders St

My desk during a last minute race to finish hw. Dora tissues!

I think I should continue with ending the post with a question.

What do you like to do to relax when life is super busy?

Hong Kong drama's for me =]
