The boy/girl who cried wolf.

I have always believed honesty is the best policy. It's really common sense. It is just too much trouble having to come up with one lie after another to cover up your previous fib. I will be honest now, I am not perfect. Sometimes I stretch the truth, sometimes for convenience, I gloss things over to save myself an explanation, sometimes I tell a tall story as a joke or in order to be tricky, but I try as much as possible, in the the things that matter, to be truthful.

If you have cried wolf too many times, no one's gonna take you seriously anymore. And that's a real tragedy.

Marking Deadline

12 October is marking deadline, giving me exactly 2 weeks from today.

Diverge

Found some time today after class to have supper/dinner with Gwen. I don't see many of my good friends nowadays, as our paths diverge after graduation. I am worried we may lose the comfortable familiarity, becoming acquaintances who stand around, awkwardly making small talk.

如煙

The old man woke up early. It was still dark outside and quiet in the ward. The duty nurse would only come by in 30 minutes. The old man looked down at his wrinkled hands and for a brief moment he felt horrified because he couldn't understand how and why he had gotten so old so fast.

Application

Sent out my bio and portfolio as part of my application for the Manit Sriwanichpoom Workshop in October. Keeping my fingers crossed that I will get a place and the chance to learn from a photographer picked as one of the world’s 100 most interesting emerging photographers by Phaidon.

Dustland Fairytale

I think the road trip through California in June has allowed me to 'feel' more about this MTV.
