HotSpot


Photo: Lookout Point| Hulu Langat

在这hotspot 还未hot起来的时候,原来我在N年前已到此一游只是那时还没像现在那么火热. 还记得那时是一位“好朋友”带我上去那里,当时的我才十九岁而已。光阴似箭,眼看已过了五个年头,回顾往事,好朋友已变成普通朋友,昔日的欢乐也变成了回忆,年轻的无知造成了他人的伤害。 如今重回此地,身边多了一位好朋友,往日的宁静换成了今天的喧闹,此时此刻的心情已无法像当时那样无忧无虑。

Malacca in Black

My first black & white photo series i've ever publish on the web. I never try to put the photo into black since i love to view the world in a colourful way until i saw a series of B&W photos published by my friends who are crazy with B&W, perhaps their life is just black & white..ha ha just kidding buddies. B&W brings me the feeling of mystery, elegant, quiet and uncertainty. After converted a number of photos into B&W suddenly i realize why they love B&W so much...

A Visit to an Old Town

Being apart after the Langkawi trip, we are once again gathered together to explore the world with our camera. We have less people compare to previously but it doesn't stop us from doing crazy things all day long. This time, with our Myvi Club President Joshua as our driver, we heading to the place that filled with most historical buildings in town. Walking through Malacca street is exhausted and with the high temperature of reaching 40 degree celsius we almost get burn lively without any mercy from the nature. however, with the determination of going for the satay celup (satay steamboat) that keep us fighting all the way until night (we still dint get to eat satay celup at the end due to the terrible congestion, pity Ryan)


Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!

River in Historical Town


Photo taken at Malacca River after our breakfast at around 4 in the morning. I suggested to take our first shot at this place before we heading to our hotel. This place is perhaps the most attractive & peaceful place that I've ever came across in Malacca. It was once an important trade route during the heydays of Malacca Sultanate in the 15th century and now it merely serve as a tourist attraction. While others are still in their sweet dream, we are here cheering with the scene that only belong to us...

City Lights


The photo was taken somewhere in Pudu. The beautiful source of light from every angles draw my attention from driving safely. Thanks to the invention of light bulb by Thomas Alva Edison that make this world become so attractive and beautiful. With the risk of getting caught by the traffic police i grabbed my DSLR in a speed of light and put the scene into my album. At the same times it reminds me the "City Lights" sang by Liza Minnelli in her album "The Act".

落叶 Fallen Leaf

走到人生尽头的时侯,我们就像落叶一样脱离大树的怀抱,投向大地的胸怀,取代的则是茂盛的绿叶。人生的道路上,我们盲目的追求,物资上的享受永远排在首位,最后剩下的只有遗憾。活在物资社会当下的我们很容易就迷失了方向,变成了物资的奴棣,心灵上的满足往往被我们给遗忘。物资上的快乐是短暂的,只有追求心灵上的快乐,才是通往快乐之乡的唯一选择。。。

Runaway


Photo: Connaught Highway

作词:陶喆 & 娃娃 作曲:陶喆
演唱:陶喆

无名的怒火
有说不出的无力想敲打我自己
口白os:太阳快要下山了什么都不做只拿着遥控器一直不停的换台
麻木的神经
感觉自己像个机器快不能呼吸
口白os:快打开冰箱看看里面的东西唉~除了酱瓜什黱也没有算了吧去外面吃吧
火辣的太阳永远在前方
无尽的公路无尽的追求
我想要 run away run away
不想再怀疑自己对不对
甩开一切无所谓
run away run away
像困在雾里
焦躁的想从茫然的现实中逃离
口白os:唉~想的太简单了吧你觉得你想做的都可以做得到吗?
淡掉的感情
还坚持下去又有什么意义
口白os:喂!你拿着车钥匙要去哪里啊你别忘明天还要上班呢别在外面鬼混了
风吹乱头发黑暗星空下
无尽的公路无尽的自由
我需要 run away run away
不想再怀疑自己对不对
甩开一切无所谓就快去
run away run away
我可以 run away run away
不想再怀疑自己对不对
是为自己不为谁
不在乎的 run away
很多人再说不断的一直说
必须这样子做不能够那样做
却又没有办法在自己的生命中突破 oh ya~
如果再不走就永远不会走
别让自己再回头
没挣扎怎能够有自由快走
现在就 run away run away
不想再怀疑自己对不对
甩开一切无所谓
run away run away
快点去 run away run away
不想再怀疑自己对不对
是为自己不为谁
不在乎的 run away
现在要 run away run away
今天要 run away run away
现在要 run away run away
今天要 run away run away

Darren in da House

Darren in da house!! no nice pic to share here, just my name created with my DSLR... Chinese people believe a destiny of a person is much related to his/her name. A good name may brings a good life to you whereas a bad name may destroy your life. Some people believe some people don't. People claims that the chinese name of uncle lim carry all the element of "wood" that's why he owns a mountain (Should ask my mom to name me "Shi Jie" (The World) so i can own the world:P). Believe it or not? up to you... it's just a matter of Feng Shui. I don't know how important a name for a person but i know it is important when come to business world. Microsoft, Google, E-bay, BMW, Toyota, Honda, KFC, Mcdonald, Coca-Cola, Panasonic, Sony, Darren etc are all the well-known brand in the world. Well...What's the meaning of Darren? perhaps "GREAT" is the only explanation i can find:P hohoho

A Great Escape

Another great escape I've been waiting for a long time. Endless workload, stresses, problems, tonnes of bills and so forth putting me in a routine day life that nearly lost my direction of life and taking a short break is a way to recharge either mentally or physically to enable me to take more challenges in the coming future. Making a trip to the beach will always be my first priority as this is the ideal place for me to escape from the city and step into the world of nature. Sun, beaches, ocean and bikini girls(most importantly) swipe away tremendous workload and of cause the exhausted mindset. I had lots of fun throughout the whole trip, thanks to my new buddies who bring so much of joys and happiness that really enrich the whole trip.


This photo was taken when i was walking towards the ferry, i was wondering what is the mood of the fisherman at that time, are they enjoying their holiday or they are thinking of making extra income during this holiday...


The whether is damn bloody hot when we reached the beach, i was hiding behind the coconut tree to put on the sunblock and captured this photo.


a close-up of the beach give another new look at the beach.


A sunset that give me a strong feeling of peaceful at the time, hoping the entire scene would pause for a moment.


All of my buddies are still asleep when i taken this photo. Out of sudden my mind came across all the sweetest memory in the past.


Top of the world, another great work of engineering


A Jump that closer to our friendship. From left Douglas, Bert, Ryan, Chee Yen, Joyce & Joshua


A stormy is coming over to the island and washing over our holiday mood:(


Life is a series of choice, though you can't choose the life you want but you can choose how you want it to be


the value of life is depends on how you value yourself.


The advantage of the beach is that you can jump like a monkey and no one will bother you:)


All of us carry a different mask when we meeting different people, we will only be our own when we are alone.


An awning is like a shelter that allow us to hide when we are helpless but it doesn't provide a long term shelter for us, we have to find a shelter that protect you and your beloved.


Success is unseen and never be an easier way, you have to go through all the ups and downs and the one who stand until the last is the one who getting close to success.


When we are tired, we go for a rest. it doesn't mean we run away from the cruel world, we reset our mind and back to the battlefields with a new fresh mind.


Life is a journey, you won't stop until you find a place that make you stop.


We don't need human made objects when nature is our home. The sea is our pool, the sand is our deck chair and we are the guest of the nature:)


End of the trip, reality is waiting for us, fighting hard next day to make our dream come true. See ya my lovely island.
