System Shutdown

This week has been one of the craziest week so far. I was doing location scouting for the past 3-4 days for a shoot around the city and I had to decide on combing through the city for places. Needless to say the amount of walking needed is epic. On one day, according to the maps, I've walked something like 15 kilometres from morning to evening. This is not including the distances covered for all the laneways covered in between. Everyday I come back seriously tired but I just have to soldier on.

The day of the shoot itself looked promising in the morning though we started late. And just within a blink of an eye, what started out as a cloudless sunny day quickly turned to a very very cloudy day and threatening to rain. Thank goodness the rain held up but it was seriously cold, which is not good for them when I was shooting them. But perhaps the biggest damage that was done thanks to that seriously cloudy day was that I had to scrap one of the locations because I really needed the sun to be out. Such a pity because I thought that would have been a good shoot for that location. I know because I was there a few days back when the sun was out and the clouds were epicly good with the sun.

Overall, I think the shoot was alright though the concept that I decided to use for them was underdeveloped, kinda like eating meat that's slightly undercooked. Also, it seems that the quality of my shots seem to deteriorate as the day progresses by. Once the day is done, had dinner and went for some drinks and then I just crashed. For 14 hours.

I think at some point in every year since I started uni, I will need to crash really badly. Kinda like when you need to bring down a server for maintenance. And strangely enough, every crash happens during the holidays since I am a lot busier during the holidays (ironic isn't it?). Sigh.

Teh niuz!

Paul the Octopus rocks!

I'd like to see that day come.

Tough guys eh? Not when they are going through a divorce, apparently
