aspiration

I am so loving Joss Stone's Tell Me What We're Gonna Do Now. In fact, it's on repeat play on my iPod right now. Harhar. Addict.

It's good to be home again, even if I was here less than a week ago. As much as I love living in our humble room in Manila, I must admit I'm not all that crazy about the things that happened there this week. Not that anything bad happened. It's just me and my overly active imagination again at work. Err. Whatever.

I was able to watch Mad Mad Fun at Animax again. The truth is the show didn't quite live up to my expectations for it. But then again, maybe I was expecting too much. Rhian is certainly cute, but she isn't that great a host yet. And Shawn could do a lot better too. I'm sure those girls have great personalities off-cam, which somehow didn't translate well on-cam since they looked a bit awkward with themselves while talking.

Anywho, the real reason I watched MMF was because this week's Kawaii Girl is Tricia Gosingtian. She's a young, self-taught photographer whose works [if I'm not mistaken] has appeared in mainstream publications. I've seen some of her works in her deviantArt account and I must say they're pretty amazing. The girl's got serious talent. Of course it helps that she has a decent camera to work with, but that's another matter altogether.

Being a wannabe photographer myself, I make it a point to observe the different styles of every photographer whose work catches my eye. And it gave me renewed hope when i found out that Tricia didn't have any formal training in photography yet was able to take really good pictures. Given the right equipment, I know I could take some good photos too. After all, there's only so much you can do with a 3.2-megapixel digicam with but limited controls. But I'm trying to work it just the same.
