not to brag or anything, but one of the best things I like about myself is that I can dress in different styles depending on my mood or the occasion. This time I decided to dress the way I used to dress the whole time (yup my style was very classic and elegant before I started exploring different styles via fashion blogging) before I started blogging. This would also be the type of outfit my mom would wear. Embellished A-line skirts, feminine blouses, and a great pair of dainty femme soles. I used to tell my mom how much I hated her pointed shoes (i called them "genie" shoes back then), and now I sorta "ate my own words" because I love pointed shoes thanks to Prada & Louis Vuitton.
This was also the first time I started experimenting with my new external flash. I would have never guessed that a tiny flash device could change my photos drastically. I'm currently saving up to get one of those wireless triggers so I can place the flash in a spot where my photos would be "creatively" lit up. Thinking of taking some photographer courses after I graduate to fiddle more on lighting. Up to this point, my lighting source has always been the sun or bulbs.

I'll start to write my camera settings and kit for every photo post now as I'm getting alot of questions about the camera. these were all shot using sigma 30mm at f/1.4, ISO 200, and I forgot to note the shutter speed (I think they were about 1/5sec)
I'm soooo glad that I've finished my midterm exams. They were totally dreadful and they were bad for my blog updates (..and my undereye circles). Good thing is that I think I did pretty okay in them. I don't care much about the grades, but it's the effort that counts for me. What matters is that I tried my very best. Good thing that all of my college nightmare will be over by December. I can't wait to put my graduation cap anytime soon ! I missed mine during high school because I didn't finish my IB programme and went ahead for college with my GCSE results. anyway, i got really personal today because I just feel like it. I feel like my blog has been missing alot of diary like entries these days. perhaps I should write more about my personal life ? yes no ? :)
you're still welcomed to ask questions for my q&a posts ! I've received great ones over the past week and im looking forward for more :)
