Living a life of unemployment...ha ha...

I will just use this image to represent my feelings now.....i looked grouchy, don't I? Why????

Well, since i don't need to report to office, I should be out there in the fields and doing bird photography, but instead I am right now stuck at home, with a whole lot of mess every where as I am trying to pack all my stuff into boxes...and getting things ready for the movers to come in this Thursday!

Oh I wish i can pack faster or at least throw things away faster so that I dont have to pack them...ha ha........still have lots to go...taking a break for a minute, and enjoying a cool iced ribena.

This weekend would be the stake singles' convention to Mawai/Sutera Resort in Johor, and next week, I would be heading out to the mountains of Utah.....

Who says life as an unemployed is tough? ha ha....ok ok.....when the resources run low, i guess i better stop laughing....cheers!

Life goes on....

Common Kingfisher

Well, 31st August has passed by.....that was the last day for me as an employee of BP. Been with BP for 9 years - 2 years in Malaysia and 7 years in Singapore....It has been an interesting journey...but i am happy to say I am not missing my work yet...ha ha..

For past one week, i have been doing bird photography every morning ~ it was relaxing and fun. i get to meet many photographers as all of us were trying to shoot a juvenile plaintive cuckoo...Also fun, Singapore is a real sunny and hot country - After just three days out in the sun, I am totally tanned - finally, had to run to Beach road and get some long sleeves shirt and a wider brim hat..

1st Sep to 3rd Sep - Chinese & Japanese Garden
4th Sep - Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve and Chinese/Japanese Garden
5th Sep - Panti Forest, Johor
6th Sep - Sabbath day
7th Sep - Did all my banking chores today ~ change address and canceling the credit cards ~ so no birding at all. But hope to do again tomorrow, at least for first one to two hours in the morning.

Sharing here two photos taken in Panti Forest - Velvet-fronted nuthatch. It was so fun shooting this hyperactive bird which defied all sense of gravity and was just going round and round the branches and happily pecking away.....
