get my learner's permit
DKT. 1 month ago

Passed the DKT (Driver’s Knowledge Test) with ease, obtaining full marks on the exam. Shortly thereafter, I received my learner’s permit. Too easy. Can’t believe I postponed it for so long.

My butterflies have butterflies... 1 month ago

In about 15 hours, I will be in a plane departing Sydney for Zurich. The days in Europe that await me have rendered me speechless; I anticipate many memorable experiences, interactions and sights in Zurich, Paris and London. But the duration of the flight causes me great discomfort…I’ve never been fond of flying, particularly flying alone. I will eagerly await the moment the plane touches down in Switzerland.
Wish me a safe trip everyone!



Get a digital SLR camera
Excited! 1 month ago

I could invariably differentiate between a DSLR photo or P&S photo and genuinely appreciated the transparent distinctions in image quality. That said, I was always oblivious and ignorant to photography, settling for admiring other people’s work rather than creating my own. I was a spectator, not a player. That was fine for the most part but now, I yearn to make photography a hobby and take some snaps of my own. Possessing a DSLR camera would provide the ideal platform for honing my skills. I’m an unmitigated neophyte to the world of photography but we all have to start somewhere, don’t we? For these reasons, I took the leap and purchased the Nikon D60 with a twin lens kit (18-55 VR & 55-200 VR) off Ebay for AUD$810.00 which I found to be very reasonable. Accessories, additionally battery, lens filter, etc, are all included. I intend to read the entire manual during my flight to Zurich. 24 hours should suffice.
