| Proud to be a child of God, a faithful son (I hope lol) a trying to be hardworking student, a part-time worker, a nerf/milsim enthusiast, a crafting and music lover and an awesome friend. to you :) Hope you have an enjoyable time reading about my life, as much as I have fun living it! | MinimalistI am a university student who loves chocolate! Coffee is my best buddy when it comes to taking on my finals. I have a tendency to want to try and do so many different things at once and as a result, I've found my hobbies to be as such!   Nerfing is one of them, but aside from that, I also love arts and craft. I have my own startup, Thumbforlego at: where I sell my works!   I love to do all sorts of crafting, so you will see me uploading posts of my leathercrafts, thumbdrives, replica guns, nerf gun modifications and gundam models! I'm fortunate enough to be blessed by really supportive parents and given the chance to explore many, many parts of the world and try out a plethora of activities. This is also how I discovered my love for film photography, videography and piano.   The film photo above is unedited! My family loves cold countries xD. We managed to catch the northern lights twice!     I've also gotten the chance to experience many of nature's wonders   And my most freezing experience to date: riding a husky ski sled into the sunset (It was -38 to -40 degrees celsius and the huskies were pretty fast.)   Leave a message after the tone Why 36000feetabove? This is the altitude that commercial planes cruise at and I have always loved the view up in the sky, being amongst the sea of clouds. :) Personally, my favourite favourite food has got to be airplane buns! Does anyone else feel the same way?! With a slice of butter and looking out of the window, I have yet to find an experience that can beat that.   After tomorrow, before today

WohoooOoo! its been so long since i last blogged! reason being i was just wayyyyy too lazy to upload photos. i seriously do not like the idea of having to upload photos through blogger..it takes forever..usually i do it with photobucket! but this time, photobucket has more or less kicked the bucket. something is wrong with the uploader..oh well! lets get on with it! have some pretty interesting stuffs this time!  
On last friday, after i ended my exam, i went shopping around city area! man it was soooo crowded, all thanks to the F1 race. The night practice session was gonna start at 7pm?? and people were queuing up at 11am?! Man! maybe they were vying for the walkabout spots. well 3 minutes later, i found myself shopping in Funan IT Mall. Now that they have like the 5th floor dedicated to LOADS of hobby shops, man its getting so interesting! Its no longer just those IT gadgets, but rather its filled with a maid cafe, anime figurine shops, plastic modelling shops, um military equipment shop..etc etc. its really interesting now! (goes to show how backward i am) i blame it on school and exams. :) 
But its not a bad thing! i got myself some fun stuffs to kill time on monday, my rest day! really really tired. Need a break. Kit Kat wouldnt do the job~ so i got myself some plastics to start off :) will upload the stuffs if i feel like it.  
here is what i found! last week, whilst taking a break from boring studies, i found this Warhammer 40k thingy...i was like what is this game...? o.o their armours look so coool! this is the video that i watched.. 
then i was huh! nice! oh wait but i am already busy with Alliance of Valiant Arms..so i will give it a miss. *scrolls through a few videos* 
there are models for the game?! and there is a non-console game?! whats this?? after tht i kinda stopped there cuz i got lost. -.- had no idea what the people were doing with the models..it was like red alert 2 or smth. 
Then coming back to my trip to Funan IT Mall, i found this new shop just right next to Black Tactical! oh btw, black tactical is where i get all my accessories/replica guns to start off. Its like my base model shop for guns. For gundams, i have another store. For tools, i usually get em from the gundam model store since it has really good stocks! IF not, just go Art Friend. Easiest choice! xD paints are just about the same price! i do brush painting btw. -.- no airbrush for me!  this is the shop, this is the shop! :D Its called...BATTLE BUNKER. then when i walked closer to the display panels outside the shop, guess what i saw! 
I was like NO WAY. what a coincidence! that looks just like warhammer 40k! so i decided to jump into the shop and have a look. :)  One guy named Daniel approached me, asking if i was interested in it! hahaha of course i am! i just so love those majestic armours that the soldiers have man. totally my style~ Then he introduced me around this cool shop, where i saw these 2 HUGE tables that were done like a battlefield. now i get the idea of the whole "red alert" thing man! Its just like the game, but its in real life, and it uses dices and plays by the inches..hmmm interesting! 
After walking around quite some bit, i spotted this mini table that had these figurines put on display! Having those itchy fingers of mine, i couldnt resist but pick em up and see the detailing of the artworks!  The original model is a grey base, then you can paint it whatever way you want to. The rest of the models are the original colours btw :) they have like 6+ different factions to choose from? then you can buy your own figurines, paint em and use em in battle! how cool is that?!  Best part, you can always invest in your army and buy bigger and badder stuffs! special points and status goes to units using buildings for covers too :) everything plays by the inches, players take turns. 
Apparently they have a 'master' who teaches them how to do different sorts of painting. Like washing, weathering.. frankly speaking, i only know the basic painting, marking out, washing, dry brush style weathering.. and i have no idea how to do layering.. Example of layering? look at the model's white cloth in the middle. The effects of darker shades and distinct lines with different shades of grey/white, thats layering. Really nice! :) i have lots to learn eh! yup the master painted this out of a simple grey figurine. The parts can be interchanged too! like arms, legs, heads.  
Cool stuffs indeed! man i am so tempted to try this out once my a levels are done. Until then, all temptations have to wait! except for temptations for ICE CREAM!! =D Labels: cool stuffs, Holiday 2011, Junior College Life, school |
