Magic Moments

BBQ night…

gordongoh — Sat, 01 May 2010 16:04:41 +0000

Well well, had bbq/gathering with friends/coursemates last night. The theme of the party was “Porky Nite”! We basically ate 4kgs of pork + some side dishes….totally delicious and all of us had so much pork that we wouldn’t want to taste pork for the next two weeks…LOL!

As usual, every bbq begins with starting the fire! We were supposed to use the Cap Manok fire starter initially, but ended up by burning the charcoal in a very untraditional method…do enjoy the pictures as you scroll down…Have a good day!

Yes! That’s what we mechanical students do! haha

Getting the fire ready for the pork!

And yes, pork with the taste of beer is really good!

I have always love photos by well-known photograhers like Jenny Sun, Jerry Ghionis and Ben Chrisman! The way they use natural lightings is so amazing and makes you go WOW! The moment I saw the available sunlight yesterday, I immediately seize the opportunity and took some portrait shots before it was too late…well…below are some of my favourites..am still very new to taking flare shots…:)

When the fire was ready, everyone was patiently waiting for the pork to be ready!

There were also sausages and teriyaki chicken…

Then, around 6 something to 7, when the sun has already set, the red + yellowish sky was just so amazing, beautiful and perfect!

Officially 23!

gordongoh — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 03:31:03 +0000

I’m 23! Two more years before I reach quater of a century…that’s pretty fast! I’m in my final semester of my 5 years degree course…*gasp*! Seriously, felt like I’ve been here only for 2-3 years…:) Well, after these three months, I can say goodbye to long holidays which I so often get in Curtin! Aww..I’m gonna MISS them!!!

So yeah, this year’s birthday was a simple one. Nevertheless, I enjoyed myself! Melissa and I went for dinner at Grand Palace’s Western Food. I must say that the quality of food there is satisfying (especially my rib eye steak)! And yeah, it cost a bomb eating there…Enjoy the pictures..:)

And this is my present from Melissa! Love it…

I love the lights in Grand Palace’s Best Western Restaurant!

That’s my date!

Lol..and me with my Bold..

Moving on to food…this is the appetizer..”Soft shell crab with cheese”! Very nice..

And this’s my favourite! Medium rare rib eye steak…

Crunchy ice-cream as desert…something new..:)

Well, that’s all for now….will try to update this blog as often as possible! Stay tune…signing out…

Happy Chap Go Mei

Tomorrow marks the FIFTEENTH day of Chinese New Year! Soooo, wishing all of you a Happy Chap Go Mei!!!

Hmmp…have you ever thought how Chinese New Year would be without the banging sound of firecrackers and also the marvellous display of fireworks lighting up the skies at night? It certainly would be a gloomy and depressing new year…:) I always think that fireworks should never be banned! Looking at fireworks display can be very therapeutical too…next Chinese New Year eve, before the clock hits 12am….instead of staying at home, try to go somewhere high that can overlook the whole city. You’ll be amazed how your stress just disappear at the sight and bangs of the fireworks at 12am! Do try this next year and tell me how it feels…:)

Well, Happy Chap Go Mei again…enjoy your time with your loved ones!

That’s all for now…signing off…

Bokehness

gordongoh — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 14:11:35 +0000

Was looking through some of the pictures I took few months ago and came across this particular picture that caught my attention…it was randomly snapped in the car at night after I bought my new lens..looking at it just gives me this feeling that I could not describe…the raindrops on the windows as well as the lights far away just gives me this lonely feeling…It’s so amazing how different pictures gives you different feelings!

Well, if you’re someone wearing specs with a degree of around 400 onwards, use your bare eyes to look at the street lights at night! You’ll probably see something like the picture below…and I call that Natural Bokeh! LoL…

That’s all for now…signing off…

Simple Truth…

gordongoh — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 16:47:06 +0000

Bought this small little shirt 5 years ago when I was in KL! Snapped this picture last week in my car and realized that just in a blink, 5 years has passed! Seriously freaking fast!

Well, looking at the printing on this mini-shirt, I just cant comprehend the depth of God’s love for us…it’s just so amazing! 1 cross and 3 nails = 4given.. It’s such a simple truth, yet carries such mindblowing revelation of God’s LOVE…

That’s all for now…signing off…

CNY & Me & Meli…

gordongoh — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 18:05:54 +0000

Happy Chinese New Year everyone! Well…this is the first CNY that me and Meli got the chance to go visiting and celebrate together! For the past five years, it’s either me or her that has to leave Kuching for holidays during CNY…:) I love CNY!… especially the visitings, fellowship, food, laughters, friends, relatives and OF COURSE…ANG PAUsss! This new year would probably be the last time I receive ang pau…as I am stepping into a new challenge/phase of my life! W.O.R.K.I.N.G.! That word excites me, yet at the same time stirred up so many questions inside me! Oh well, I am believing for the very best….:)

Below are some of the pictures of me and Melissa…taken by Kester and edited by me…Thanks again Kest!

That’s all for now…Wishing all a very prosperous and exciting new year! Signing off…
