For the life of me... food was not something I thought I'd be posting pictures of. Next to people, food just does not really pique my interest. Whilst I do search for pictures of food sometimes online (when I want to convince people), food pictures are almost always a deception. C'mon, seriously... aren't you always disappointed to find that what you ordered doesn't even come out half as nice as how they are presented in pictures? My point exactly.

Besides, I don't usually carry my neck-breaking digital camera when I do go out to eat... and I just haven't gotten into taking pictures of food (mine, and esp others') whilst the people around me wait until I finish then they start digging in... nuhuh... I need time when taking my pictures...

However, today's a typhoon day off, and I find myself having my usual sometimes-work-filled 9-to-5 routine non-work-filled, and there's nothing good on TV.... so might as well do something self-declared fulfilling.

Well.. considering that it's 1:30pm now, and I haven't had lunch yet, I think I'll try digging up what I can from the fridge after this. Bonne chance!

Now you see it.... now you don't...

July 22, 2009

It was a day that started out ho-hum, quite literally... just another suddenly-gloomy-suddenly-sunshiny day. Nothing much goes on at the office. Not even when the fire alarm goes off, for a false alarm or a supposed fire drill. Come to think of it, we've never really done any fire drills...But I'm digressing.

So, here I was sitting pretty in my cubicle, when, there was this sudden commotion, and people were rushing out! I couldn't get a word of what they're saying, except "men's washroom". Hmm, could it be a pervert? HUWAT! a pervert in the men's bathroom in our heavily securitized building? What the...?

Turns out this would... should... be a day worth remembering in the chronicles of my life. A solar eclipse fully viewable in the men's washroom (that's what it was all about after all!), in my conscious years! But I'm sure I will forget about it... and so, my tribute to this solar-eclipse-watching-in-the-men's-washroom day.

It wasn't a full solar eclipse... but it was amazing to see the moon moving back and forth, at times covering only a quarter of the sun. Then it would move further to cover 3/4 of the sun. It went on for awhile, and though it's visible to the naked eye... watching it through 3D glasses made the eclipse even more distinct. Bloody! And it's kinder to the eyes too.

And then again, it SHOULD be a day worth remembering because it made for a great picture taking session... if only I had my trusty and dependable digicam with me!!! BLAH. And since it's not a full eclipse, it may look like a normal moon in the pictures. Nonetheless...

And though I wouldn't normally post photos of other people here, this event makes an exception... besides, it was my idea to take a picture of it, and I did help in taking it. So technically, I still have a part in it. Hehe...

Enjoy y'all!
