Hangout wit friends
Oh well, I went to go explore Chinatown; and I have to say it wuz pretty fun. I went wit mi friends to go check out the maid café and it turns out it wasn't as bad as I thought. There stuff wuz pretty cool too; anime stuff = 7-38 dollars . Their ice cream float wuz good but I wish they put more ice cream. Their green tea cheese cake tasted good but then buttery. I like their curry and their gyudon. The maids were not like the ones from the anime but they were really nice. The place is clean and looks pretty nice also :D We also played games; my favorite wuz the "go back jump". basically with a group of friends, when it is a person's turn, they have the choice to say go or back or jump. go =next person, back = the last person to go b4, and jump = to skip one person. If it is not their turn, and they speak, they are out. I really liked the game lol.
The other place we went to after that was the Taiwanese Porkchop House; lol, and dat place wuz packed lol. I love their short menu wit pics! The food wuz good and pretty cheap: 5-7 dollars which made me really happy. I liked their porkchop and I like the mushroom one. their plates are like normal serving plates. We were also talking about the old times lol and doing arm wrestling lol.
Wayyyy later on lol, we went to the park that held sun-yet sun statue. The place wuz crowded with elders who were playing games, singing, and playing instruments. Dat mi friends, is where I got some practice lesson from the Chinese Mae Mai which is like a hammer dat is like a Chinese cello. It wuz very light, but I have to say it WUZ SO DIFFICULT TO PLAY. LOL, the guy who wuz teaching me wuz having a difficult time teaching me and we kept on going over and over on the freakin happy b-day song. oh god, I sucked like so bad lol! But fortunately, I HALLELUYA GOT BETTER. Nah, but then I had to do an advanced song, and with the lil communication btw Chinese and English, yep I wuz hopeless. He also taught me how to do the do re mi fa so la ti do part. It wuz pretty fun and I paid the man a dollar for his help, me being a difficult learner lol.
After, me and mi friends reunited with mi other friends and we played games like the human knot, ninja, and a group chopsticks. LOL, me and mi ally won the group chopsticks, we did the human knot by talking at first - but it wuz too fast and easy so we decided to unfold without talking lol, which wuz pretty difficult lol. We played ninja, and yes, look who the boss lmfao. After, we just went to the store and another store, and then played at the arcade. B4 the arcade, there wuz an incident in wher mi friend got lost after using the br. Our friends wer lookin for her/him and it wuz like a wasted hour yikes. And it also happened again after leavin the arcade. Oh we took pictures all over the place lol and I got a joker bubble tea at yaya's which as usual tasted wonderful :D

Arista Election
well, I wasn't really planning to try runnin as the publicist but I did it last minute anyway lol. I saw it as an appealin opportunity 2 show mi leadership but lol, I didn't pass. Well, though it was interesting, I wasn't really bummed out about it. On the positive side, I guess dat means I don't have to busy myself with the publicist activities lol. I can focus on mi aps and getting a better grade. :D furthermore, though I have pretty good ideas, and I was commited to its events, I don't really know much about the positions of the Arista Senate and I know I'll be hell busy so I probably shouldn't be the ARISTA publicist anyway. Oh well, even though I didn't make it, I'll find other opportunities so I shouldn't be bummed out lol :D

PHOTOGRAPHY
lol; just came back from mi basic photography lesson: lol, I never knew photography would b so interesting though
so here I got some tips
CREATE ANGLES SO THE EYE WOULD FOLLOW AND BETTER THE PIC
TRUST UR EYES
for portrait:
use the 3/4 act; lol its like a rule thing for photographers- gives a better view and perspective.
oh try to get the outlines of the subject to the outlines of the photo; try to get rid of other disturbances in the background and soften the background so dat the main focus would b the subject
lol, don't say cheese; cheese makes the subject tense up and unnatural. interact with them and take lots of pics to see many different sides to them lol
To soften the background, get as much light as possible.
sign=person
for landscape:
take pics during the golden hour; lol cuz the different types of lights just make it more beautiful
(golden hour is like near sunrise and near sunset; DONT TAKE DURING MIDDLE OF DAY
the snaps take longer cuz the camera wants to sharpen and get as much details as possible so try to keep it steady with a tripod, wifi, camera remote, or timer
get as much area of sky and ground as possible
sign=mountain
for macro
dis is for really close up pics of inanimate objects like food, plants, jewelry, etc
try to get as close as possible so dat the camera would b more critical in its pic and detailed.
KEEP STEADY
macro lenses are really great cuz it zooms a lot closer and works well as a regular lenses.
sign=flower
for sports
follow the moving subject with speed while keeping camera steady
don't use reg camera cuz its blurry REALLY
REMEMBER ANGLES
oh the more light, the faster the snapshot but (1/1000 - WAY TOO FAST SO IT WILL B BLURRY)
sign=person running
night portrait: lol, basically portrait at night
night handheld (I think dats wat its called)
good for night; and who don't have tripods unfortunately
the one for tripods- night
BOTH ARE GOOD FOR NIGHT LANDSCAPE
SINCE AT NIGHT AND LESS LIGHT; U HAVE TO KEEP HAND STEADY
CONTEMPLATIVE PIC: A MIX OF THE PERSON AND BACKGROUND
TELLS A STORY BETWEEN THEM
HIDDEN
PANORAMA- looks like the sand ninja village sign in Naruto except sideways
its actually a lot of different pics in 360 sequence and smoothened out together to make it seem flawless.
good only for horizontal and/or vertical non moving object.
TAKE PICS ALOT AND FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES
