But today after work, I went to Giant Hypermart to find some tidbits for my wife Irene. It’s already 10pm but yet I can see the place is full of people especially those that just finish their dinner. After grabbing a few stuffs into the basket I went to the cashier. Since today is one of those no-plastic-bag-or-20sen day, I refuse to pay just to get a bag. More importantly, why should I be using plastic bags when I get a kind Indian guy asking me, “boy, want a box instead?”

What a brilliant idea, the workers aren’t gaining anything for “recycling” the boxes. Instead, why not they just give it out like this kind man did for me. Best of both worlds huh. I don’t havta grab the plastics that I hate, and he don’t havta sort out the boxes after the lights are dim.

Coming home to my wife, she quickly grab the layer cakes like it’s her new precious LV bag, or diamond ring. She’s so adorable. I love you Choobee. :-*

This event aims to promote cycling as an environmental friendly mode of transportation, improve public health as well as provide a platform for cyclists to challenge themselves physically and mentally.

JAC Photography is assigned to cover this event. Jonathan, Christopher and I worked our ways to capture the best of the event. Below are a few selected photos of the event.

Hi gang: Here’s a quick update on how we’re doing with the Worldwide Photo Walk:

The Numbers
Wow!!! We’re at nearly 1100 walks around the world, and by the time you read this, we’ll have over 26,000 walkers registered in walks. If you haven’t signed up for a walk, it’s not too late. Here’s the link to get all the details, or sign up for a walk.

The Shirt
We’ve got some really cool t-shirts for walkers and leaders this year (see above), and once again 100% of the profits go directly to the Springs of Hope Orphanage in Kenya(last year we raised over $7,000 to feed and cloth the children), and this year we’re hoping, with your help, to raise even more. Here’s a link to order yours today.

The Love
If we didn’t get another city, Scott’s Publisher Peachpit Press would still be shipping over 2,400 copies of either his Lightroom 3 book, or his CS5 book, all over the world, and that they would be willing to do this to support the walk, is just amazing , so do us a favor and check out their site here, or follow them on Twitter, or Facebook. They publish the very best books on Photoshop, Photography, and all the stuff we love, so please join me in giving them some big love, because without them, we couldn’t make all this happen. Thanks Peachpit (Nancy, Scott, Ted, and crew!!!).

We can’t afford Disney Weddings, neither can I offer her the freedom from going to work. Luckily, we still managed to spend sometime every month to catch a movie together. Happy Anniversary Chubby…may we face new challenges together in the coming years.

Psst…in case you’re wondering WTF is this. That’s the 100% silk bed cover we just got to replace the semi-synthetic that we slept in for the past 1 year. Silk really makes a huge difference…next time you peeps go Shanghai should buy it.

These presidents, along with their team have placed hundreds of hours calling up speakers, arranging for meeting and calling for role players. Hence there’s a saying that you’ve not seen it all until you’ve been a president of a PDC. At the start of the term…everyone fought from 0 and now….they have finished the term once again with flying colors. I do hope my other peers – YewJin, Jessica and Muthu will catch up with their club performance and put Division S on the charts once again.

On Saturday, July 24, 2010, the whole world will be walking again with Scott Kelby, president of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals (NAPP) and #1 bestselling computer and technology book author, in the Third Annual Worldwide Photo Walk™.

Scott Kelby’s Worldwide Photo Walk is the world’s largest global social photography event in the history of photography itself. It takes place on the same day around the world where photographers of all walks of life and skill levels gather together, usually in downtown areas to socialize, learn new tips from each other, and explore their corner of the world through photography.

This year, I’d be leading a group of photographers from the center of Dutch Square all the way to the center of Malaka’s own Chinatown. Participants will plunge deep into Melaka’s history, beginning with the colonial experience in Dutch Square starting with A’Famosa, St. Paul’s Church and down to the Stadthuys. From there we’ll be walking towards the heart of Melaka’s Chinatown, starting with Cheng Ho’s museum moving through Jonkers Street and Chinese-Malay hybrid culture of the Peranakans along Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock. We’ll then continue our journey along Jalan Merdeka where we’ll see the new attraction to melaka – The Eye of Malaysia. Finally, we’ll finish at Dataran Pahlawan to review our photos and have our dinner.

Over the last 3 weeks, I’ve already received tremendous response from near and far. There are only 20 seats left at the moment, join us in Melaka this 24th July and I’m sure we’ll have a blast.[WorldWide Photowalk]
