It was lunch time and the delegates were invited by the host for lunch at the Sogo’s Japanese Restaurant at the 6th floor.

The foreign girls trying out the chopstick. Practicing how to use a chopstick.

It was a Japanese buffet with a lot of raw stuffs. Salmon, tuna, yellow tail, you name it. The girls were having fun stuffing themselves with what Japanese had done for ages.

Two of the D’Touch staffs. Friendly bunch.

Staffs from Sogo who was so generous with their hospitality and lots of great food.

Not less, group picture time.

Of course, there were a lot of people from the public who wield out their mobile phones trying to get a picture of the ladies. Some of them were in the state of confusion, but that was all.

The 45 ladies will appear in various location during the month towards the end of the year so there are a lot more opportunities if you have missed them. Catch the crowning of the Miss Tourism International 2009 at Sunway Lagoon Resort on the 31st of December 2009.

Nuffnang being one of the silver sponsors contacted me to join the event. Maybe because Robb thinks that I’m cute and I can take good pictures, but that is only him to know.

It was all fun and games.

The story was a little different the week before.

It was the Malaysian-International Fashion Week organized by M-IFA. Think of it as the Grammy Awards for fashion.

There I was, alone at Pavilion. My friends that had promised to come to the Fashion Show with me could not make it.

I was hungry, I thought perhaps a nice meal could help with the disgust that I had at that time on my friend that had missed our outing together; and a meal I had.

I thought the place was invitation only. Yet I am seeing flock of people at the place, signing up at the entrance with “Photo Kaki” credentials as media accreditation.

Much to my surprise, the show was tad boring. Boring in a way that the models looked messy. The designs were good. It was a showcase of local designers, or something. I was being pushed by people, people shooting me off and stuffs. Yes, these photographers who has got fake media accreditation shooed me off because I was a guest, and I was sitting by the stairs, minding my own business. Perhaps it was because my camera were bigger than theirs.

I got bored, not being able to enjoy the fashion show like how I wanted to, I walked around, sat the the place where I was supposed to seat, oogle at some cute guys, looking at the clueless people, looking at some of the not so well dressed guests. I kept my big camera, and whip out my camera phone, I feel more into place than the others, without the big big bulky black box thing.

I enjoyed myself, not the fashion show, albeit it could have been better.

Maybe, we can try tomorrow. Or perhaps, I am better off sleeping at home. We will see.

In the norm, when I sit down in front of the computer, be it my MacBook Pro or my MacPro, I am able to write something out. Things are way different now, perhaps I am getting very used to keeping things in my mind, rather than blurted it out.

Being invited for DiGi’s Yellow Army Graduation party was a blessing while I am back in Malaysia. First thing first, photo opportunities, and I guess there’s lotsa cuties as well.

They have a lot of activities on that day, but the one that I really wanted to go is sitting inside a drifter’s car. Had not had that chance this time, and was stuck outside the fence taking pictures.

They have some water balloon fight as well.

Then I spotted a cutie.

Cutie got himself two water balloons.

Look at that graceful throw. Too bad I did not get to know his name.

That’s all for now. Hope those that attended the Yellow Army Graduation Party had fun!

Well, it was partially because I was on a road trip again, and partially because I was lazy to look for a place for me to log on. It came to a surprise that so many things had changed.

Firstly, my Facebook account was disabled. Apparently someone had sent a complain to Facebook saying that I do not seem to belong to my account that claims who I am. I guess, it’s quite normal for me. Facebook had requested that I sent in my photo ID to them, and I think it really reminds of me the episode that I had with XTube where they think I am underaged, and asked me to send them my photo ID. So sarcastically I think Facebook is the same as XTube.

So there I was, half way around the globe again, trying to chill myself over some certain things of life. Here are some of the pictures taken.

Since early September 2008, after I had landed in Bangkok, Thailand, I have been wandering around. The reason was that it was exactly a year before that that I have met with The Boy.

I was packed with minimal luggage, I do buy souvenirs but I send them back home from each destination I visit.

As you can see, I have the mere nessacity of items that I would need, and some might notice there’s a few condoms lying around as well. While those that lay on my bed seems to be tad heavy, wait till you see what is in the bag.

This is just my hand carry, and all my important items.

From Alaska, to Zulu I have been traveling. Often spending the night alone. It does get pretty lonely, and I had plenty of time to rethink about everything. 8 months I have not stepped back to my own home, 8 months that I had been stepping my foot to different part of the world.

I had also met a lot of people. The adventures were great.

check out the few pictures that I have got.

John, were sitting beside me when we were at the orientation hall. While I was chatting on MSN, I saw from the corner of my eyes that John was peeping.

Well, without bad intention actually; he was curious how did I signed on to MSN, while the varsity’s firewall had blocked almost three quarter of the World Wide Web.

It almost the perfect excuse to know each other. Well at least it wasn’t the usual “Hi I am John, nice to meet you” silent type of conversation.

John was pretty impressed of the pictures that I have taken around the varsity. John was looking at the pictures that I had taken, and he whispered to me. “You are using a Nikon, aren’t you? I can see it from the colors of you pictures.”

It was that that got us bitching about how Canon could not represents the colors properly, and such and how Nikon stands on more in terms of colors representation. It was that this little thing that got us closer, and talking like we have known each other for ages.

John was the talkative one, and without me realizing it, I started chatting with him quite openly as well.

We spend our lunch time at the varsity’s cafeteria, and then we went over to central park. Time flies when you are spending it together, and it was evening when we realized it. When we went back to the varsity to grab our stuffs, the view of the sunset is so nice that I could not resist to take a picture of it.

I invited John over to my place, and I cooked him a meal while he was looking at pictures that I had on my Adobe Lightroom. He liked a lot of them, and asked me to teach him how to take those pictures. We sip on our wine on my balcony, and starting chatting again.

Munching on the fresh cherries that I bought, we talked about our live stories. John was born in Ipoh back in Malaysia, and has been staying in Singapore since. It was quite an interesting story of himself. We had fun feeding each other of course, with the occasion glance stealing. It was fun, and the conversation was good. Couple with the wine, just make the whole thing much more easier.

As the weather got cold, we went back in to the loft. I set up the fireplace, and we had a game of chess. I am not sure if John was really that bad player, or he just want to let the younger boy win. I had won so many times that if we had bet to take off a piece of clothing for every game he lose, I would have stripped him past 5 minutes of each game.

John saw my guitar lying around near to my bed. Yes, besides taking pictures, I pay the guitar as well. John was playing a few of my favorite tunes. His singing along with the guitar was fantastic, I swear that I paid my attention to his voice and his beautiful face. it got late that night, we put everything aside. It was too late for John to go back to Brooklyn as well, I could have sent him back, but I suggested that he could stay over for the night.

Sporting with a white brief boxer, John tug himself in beside me on the bed. It was fairly cold that night (I purposely turned down the heater) and I hugged John.

The night ended quite well, but I will save the details for later. Till then.

Sitting on my balcony sipping on the wine.

Just finishing my dinner, and a little of assignment, and thought of the day’s even. It was fruitful, exciting and loads of fun, to say the least.

The morning to the varsity was not too bad. It was the first time I was on the Upper West Side during rush hour, and the scene of hawt guys in suits are just, mesmerizing.

Took the subway instead. Since it was my first day of my freshman year, I wasn’t allowed to drive in. I must say, the more I explored, the more I fell in love.

The entrance to the varsity is grand. Grand here meaning, it isn’t like the typical ones like what they have in Malaysia. Well I have not been to that many varsity in Malaysia, so I would not know. The only one that I had probably experienced that is nice in terms of ecstatics are probably the one that I went to in Tronoh.

While most of the varsity students are off for summer holiday, there are still a lot of them that enters the varsity for the summer term. Just by looking at the people here, my gaydar has been triggered numerous times. Glad I had choose my path towards here.

The main building was the highlight actually. While I had noticed there are a few visitors to my blog from New York now, I do hope that people would comment with discreet. It isn’t a everyday thing that I would share pictures that would leak my identity. smiles

As I had mentioned, while most students are off for their summer holiday, many had started the new term as well. We were placed in one of the lecture halls, where we were then guided around the varsity to get to know the places. In the hall, I have met John.

One of the few things that had triggered me was the broadcast room. To look at how things are going. Eventually, before I had made up my mind, I wanted to study broadcasting. Well, a boy could dream, right?

That’s about it. A short tour of my varsity, until the year 2012.

I received a rather urgent phone call, asking me to head over downtown. I head over to the place, only to be surprised with the sequence of event that was going to happen.

Guess where am I ?

A year back, I was introduced to this little guy that was on display. It did not bother me much at first, seeing that I was quite satisfied with the performance of the older brother.

Then, it came to my best interest that an upgrade would have its own set of benefit. So that day onwards, I was using the new one, and the old one was kept as a backup.

After the accident in Chiang Mai, I was devastated. Not only by the news that I had lost a companion, but the whole hassle that I had to go through to get a new one back. This morning, after that phone call, I was relieved.

Finally, I had got back my camera, without much hassles to my surprised.

Of course, I would have to thank dad for his intervention. Otherwise, it could be another month before I can get my insurance claims done.

Stay tunes for more pictures, right here. Brought to you by Cedric Ang dot Com.

A post dedicated to Ad Infinitum after his moonlight post.

For the past few days, I have been wondering, thoughts and figures.

What have to accomplished so far?

Nothing.

I want to blog, but I don’t know what to write. Not that I am blank, but I have too many things running in my mind.

I want to pen down a story, and yet, I get distracted by having something else on mind. How?
