Hello everyone. Welcome on board! Before I begin, please prepare a cup of coffee or tea for yourself, cos I guess it’s gonna be a long post. Haha..
This is Vivian, a final year ITO student in Temasek Polytechnic. It’s not my first time blogging, I do have a personal blog which I have been updating my personal affairs, thoughts and concerns since March 2006. However, I am still very excited about my UIR blog, cos obviously it’s going to be very different as compared to my personal Wretch blog. Okay, let me now introduce some of my backgrounds to you….. Basically, my family consists of 5 members: my dear mum and dad, me, my younger sister and brother. Currently, my parents and my sister are living in New York City, USA. My parents are working there for about 2 years already and my younger sister just went there to study in the early this year. My brother will also be leaving for studying in NYC probably 2 months later. I will miss them terribly… Anyway, no worries, I am a big girl..old and independent enough to take good care of myself…haha…
During my free times, I will spend lots of time surfing the net..Websites that I frequent most are 1). New York Times --> where you can have a glance of the latest news from all aspects in the world. 2). Youtube --> I visit it mostly during my long holiday period (too free)…haha..Usually, I will watch my favorite Taiwanese variety shows such as Kang Xi Lai Le and anything that can make me laugh out like hell… 3). Baidu --> this is the place where I can download many popular and nice songs to my tiny size Zen Creative MP3 player.
Other than surfing the net, I also love photography, travelling, designing website and blogging. I fell in love with photography about 2 and a half years ago when I visited one of my friends’ photoblog. Photoblog is actually similar to the blogger but its main aim is to provide a place where people can post their beautiful and artistic photos on their blog and share with others. I have never attended any formal class about photography, but I will always view and observe other people’s great photos and learn some techniques from there. Whenever I find anything that is special, I will take a few shoots with my phone or camera..(talking about camera,,,I have been searching for a high quality, nice design and not too expensive one for a long time, any suggestion??). Oh, I realized I really don’t like to take photos of human..don’t ask me why cos I really don’t know… I would love to capture images of animals, nature plants, sky and more …. But definitely NOT myself or any one unless there is some special meaning behind it…
The last thing I wanna talk about is my life in TP. I can only say, so far so good. Haha. I have been working hard to achieve high grades and not to disappoint anyone who have high expectations from me. There were also times when I find myself lost in the wild jungle, but thanks to some of the great lecturers I have come in contact with, they encouraged me and believe in me. God bless!
A very long post..haha…hope you guys enjoy reading…Stay tune for my further updates soon.
