Within lines
Good Thursday!
Made a trip to the art school and went to ThirtySix to have my film installed into my Canon AE-1. Asked the sales assistant for help and she immediately took my camera and did magic. And I mean literally, she installed it in less than a minute,
"Okay all you have to do is... Pull it here, click it, make sure you hear the click onto the gear right here, press and move, and you're done! Now you can begin taking shots with it!"
I wanted her to repeat every step but that's silly of me to request that. So I just thanked her and stayed in the lomography store for a little while. The La Sardina, Sprocket Rocket, Holga Pinhole, The Holga, Blackbird I cannot even...
But I'm still not bored of my Canon AE-1 yet so... I think I'll just stick to this one. My Mini Diana is doing fine, if you must know, it's at the top of my shelf. Well maybe collecting dust.
Oops.
Managed to capture a good picture of what I brought out!
A canvas sling, red loafers, Canon AE-1 hanging down my neck, my casio watch and a vintage dress on. I feel like a tourist in this country I've been in for 16 years.
Day 2 //
Visited the new Prologue where UrbanWrite used to be in Orchard Central. Got myself scrapbooking items and all of it less than 6 bucks! (Only because I got their $5 cash voucher from my manager, she's the best.)
Discovered a pretty store, not so sure what it's named but a total inspiration. They even have an old damaged brick wall as a decoration in the middle of the store, the first I've seen!
Also spent about 6 bucks in Paper Market because they have 30% off for every 5 papers there. I think the things there just got cheaper, thought the papers usually cost 3 bucks and above.
Spent a reasonably good time and money on paper goods today, am really satisfied!
Tomorrow's the 7th day of Ramadhan, basically a week of Ramadhan gone.
"How did you spend your Ramadhan, so far?"
Something I ask myself every night before I sleep.

happy as can be
Earlier in the week i had frolicks, finally someone to frolick with on a Tuesday.
Got a few scrapbook papers and did my own life journal. I wasn't at least satisfied with the one I made earlier. I have way too many movie tickets and pictures I don't know where to place them.
Made a trip to ThirtySix to buy Lomography's film rolls and strangely it costs.... only $12.90. the last time i ordered online cost me SGD 30+ plus the shipping...... oh man.
Took a picture of what was in my bag that afternoon and I couldn't help but take a picture. Kinda looks like a whole package for travelling, like I'm all set to go.
Made a trip to BooksActually and bought a World Map for my wall. Look how pretty it is there!!!!! Still contemplating whether to frame it up or leave it as it is.
And also an unneeded picture of me infront of the bookstore.
Did i mention that there were cats roaming around the shop? Intense love for the bookstore after i see the cats being all lovely and friendly to strangers. Definitely a trip worth for people who love books and cats.
Also watched the Avengers and enjoyed every moment of it. Love how it was the continuation of Thor.
Been doing a little finance and planning on Etsy... Just wish I had a little more time for myself.
