Head Spinning Around

Tomorrow I have got an appointment with Cityside NINO Jobcentre Plus Office regarding my National Insurance Number (NI). This will be a challenge for me because the office is located in London and since I came here in May 2007 until now, I think I merely went down to Central London less than 10 times if I’m not mistaken. What a shame. But yeah, that’s the truth. Luckily, the interview starts at 15:00, so I have got plenty time to figure out how to get there. All documentations are ready I reckon. There’s nothing much to prepare actually as long as I bring those what mentioned in the letter. I’m not sure whether or not I’m going to the office tomorrow because I have informed my boss last week about my tomorrow’s interview. In my head now, 70% stay at home, 30% go to work hahaha. We’ll see later if the thinking change.

This week is another idle week hahaha. In other words, I have done nothing but sitting in front of my PC and surfing the net. In fact, I was over slept. What a bad habit. But that always comes to my mind during weekend. It’s like my head has been set up to be lazy over the weekend. This is something I’m working out now. It is totally different what I usually do back in Malaysia. I have badminton session at least 3 days a week. I go for a jog. Go out and take photos. I do lots of stuff I reckon. Unlike here, I become lazy. I don’t know why. Is it because of the weather? Can’t blame the weather though. Think I should start listing down what to do every weekend so that I won’t waste it just like that. Maybe something like, this week cleaning and tidy up my room, next week plan for a trip to somewhere for some photos opportunity. That would be more organized I reckon. Plan something ahead is always good. Anyway, it’s been a while I didn’t take photos. I miss it so much. Can’t remember what time it was, but I took the photo (above) as soon as I saw the sun shined and it was a lovely day. You don’t have to wait for summer for a great photo actually. It still can be done in any season if you’re always ready.

Okay, here we go again with photo editing and stuff. As a matter of fact, I have been questioning myself for a long time how did people do HDR (High Dynamic Range) editing. And until now, I’m still lost, looking for bloody tutorials. All of a sudden, this came accross my head when I was doing some editing on Photoshop. I remember a friend told me about one method of photo processing. So, I tried it once again but this time to be more creative, I applied a few things to make it different from what I’ve done so far. I don’t know what kind of editing this is called but I enjoyed doing it. I know it looks so fantasy but that is the intention. When I showed it to my friends, some even said it looks like cartoon. Well, I was just playing around with photoshop. Just to know what does each tool in Photoshop do. You won’t know if you don’t try, will you? Now, you can see how different it is between original and edited photos. Nevertheless, I like it both either original or edited.

Love,

Faris
