Hey Blog

Hey blog, you've been missed.
Life's good and school have been one hell of a joyride.
Went to a lot of camps, met a lot of new friends, joined a lot of CCAs and spent a lot of time mugging in school.
I've never been this hardworking before.

For some reason, everyday is an "all-day-busy" affair.
I don't mind mugging in school though.
The people I'm with are an awesome bunch and they're really helpful.
Glad to know Syafiqah, Dina and Louis and the rest of their friends.
It's quite a relieve to know that there are nice people around that you can ask for help.

AW (Academic Writing) mod is a CHORE.
Thank god my Prof is a nice guy and tried to understand the pressure this mod have on us.
It's been years since I last wrote a single essay and this module is killing me with wordy assignments.
So much readings to be done.

I always fine with readings but the problem is: they're always giving us articles by authors who enjoys describing every thing with fancy, brain-wrecking words/phrases that requires me to search through the dictionary just so that I could understand what the heck he/she is trying to say. GAHHHH

Just wanna share my current wallpaper. *Random act to change topic*

I LOVE RAINY DAYS

Gud night.

Say goodbye Haze and Hello Sunshine! +UV rays

MASKED

Everyone in Singapore have been panicking and cursing the haze. 

But somehow the haze does have its positive effects among the millions of complains that it has created.

Firstly, I don't have to face the scorching sun! The haze probably blocked away the hot sun rays from burning down on Singapore but at the same time the haze itself is warm and smelling of burned trees.

Secondly, Don't you guys think Singapore have one more reason to finally be united through tough times such as this?

Helping each other through the haze was quite an exciting facade. It seem quite funny when I think about it. Buying Mask, distributing them to people you know… 

Even working at Starbucks was surprisingly fun since we had to quickly close the store once the PSI reached above 300. (I'm talking bout Starbucks at Orchard Point where it's exposed to the air outside.) Rushing around, directing people to other Starbucks, hiding behind our closed shutters while eating McDonalds and Long John Silver as we wait for further instructions from our District Manager… 

That was such a memorable day.

Not only that, I also feel so loved nowadays as more and more people would keep asking how we're doing and remind me to take care of myself (e.g. Drink more water, stay indoors…etc).

So touching. 

We've also got some entertainment from funny illustration on how Singapore is Suffering…

Heh.

Haze oh Haze. You're such a bother but because of you, we'll remember to stock up enough masks at home before Watsons or Guardian run out of them…

Anyway! Enough about the hazed.. Haiz.

Meet the new Me! 

Went to ProTrim at Causeway Point and did a Haircut, Blow, wash and Hair Treatment. Money spent well. My hair is totally no longer near the texture of a broomstick. ;D

My Old Long surly hair and Long fringe...

TADAAA!!!!

Cut my fringe Shorter. Much Shorter. 

Hello Bangs!

Also trimmed my hair… quite a lot actually. 

Now my hair won't be curly anymore. Just wavy bottoms. 

Gotta work.
Chiao.

I need to kick my lazy butt

My DO-IT-BEFORE-SCHOOL-STARTS plans:

1) Earn more money $$$

2) Buy the stuff that I want/need -GSS CRAZE-

3) Bake a rainbow cake

4) Study Calculus ;(

5) Start driving lessons -Yeah, Why didn't I get started earlier?!-

6) Gym with Love before every outing/date -Lose Weight-

7) Print all my Poly Graduation Photos

8) Sell away some of my unwanted stuff in a flea

9) Room Makeover

10) Wardrobe Makeover -Probably do this before I go flea-

11) Upgrade my MacBook Hard disk

12) Time Machine Back up

13) Get a comfy office chair

Yeah…

But basically I've been doing a lot of No 1) and 2). Haha

Gotta work hard and SHOP HARD.

I'll never get tired of shopping and this is going to be a big issue once I've started school, stopped working and not having much money with me.

That is why I'm wondering if I should just set up my own blogshop and get some extra cash through there. However, it's not as easy as it seems…I've set up once before and know just how tiring it can be even with 5 people handling it. And I don't have much capital with me. Where can I get my stocks for new collections other than having to go all the way to Bangkok and dragging those bunch of clothes back at wholesale prices? I can try Online wholesalers but are they trustful enough? Plus I have great doubts about the quality of the products…

If only I could find someone to work these things out. 

Then again, finding the right person to start a blogshop with is Not Easy. 

I can't really think of anyone right now. Sheesh. I might as well ask my sisters and pay them a little bit for their help.

- In Dilema Mode-

The Days Ahead in May~

There's lots of things that I need to get ready and plan ahead for

- 8th May (Special 2nd Year Anniversary)
*But both me and Kira are working though, celebrating some other time :(*

- 11th May (SMU Informal Tea Gathering)
*Made Papa apply for a half day leave so that he could go with me! ^_^*

- 12th May (Happy Mothers' Day)
*I have no idea yet on what to get for her…0.0*

- 16th May (GRADUATION)
*Have to get ready my attire and also rent the graduation gown from Serangoon Broadway ASAP*

- 19th May (GRADUATION BBQ + Doa kesyukuran)
*My parents are helping me organize a BBQ chalet event to celebrate my graduation and also at the same time for my accepted offer into SMU Information Systems Management course. I seriously need to get my firmed to come down and start planning on the games and entertainment. Hopefully it'll be a joyful night.*

Working at Starbucks have been fun and a lot easier for me nowadays even though I was attached to other busier outlets but at least I've gained a lot of experience and somehow make myself get used to having lots of SLAMS. - meaning long queues and lots of orders -
Another thing I've learned also is that I can't concentrate well and make so many mistakes when I'm having a stomachache. And this happens almost Every Single Day!!! So frustrating.
My Manager is going to be transferred to a new outlet and tomorrow is her last day… wonder if i should get her a little gift… haha. Maybe then, she will be happy and nice enough not to make me and my cousin work in separate outlets. *Bribing-Mode*

There's new promotional drinks now in Starbucks and I think It's really nice. 

(I Love the RED BEAN and the cookie curbs on top!)

But not too much red bean though… I only like to have just a spoonful of it…

as for the Cookie Crumbs, one spoonful is probably NOT Enough. Hahaha…

Best would be also add the chocolate drizzle on top too! along with the chocolate whip cream.

But be mindful of the Chocolate whip cream though, unless you don't mind the excessive calories. 

Muahahaha

MY CAMIE

Yes,
just one of those other posts that I squeezed in because I just remembered that my blog is gonna die soon… like the previous ones that i've once dedicated time and effort to…Haha.

But at least here's another post! And a very happy one indeed ;D

I just got my…
CANON 650D!!! HOORAY!!!
Finally I have my very own Digital SLR camera and I can't wait to have a photo outing to try it out.
Bought it from TK Foto at Funan Digital Mall. I probably asked every Camera shop how much their Canon 650D are going at but finally realized that TK Foto has already given me the best-est Offer (with some awesome freebies).

(Sorry for the bad picture quality)

I also bought the Wide-Angled Macro lens attachment which is just so cool and handy especially when taking super close up pictures. And it was going at only $100! other stores like Song Brothers were offering it at $139. It feels good to have great deals. Especially after I've waited such a long time for the price to finally drop. I got that cute Pink with white polka dots straps at $20! Good material that won't make my neck itch…haha.

To make myself study and understand more, I bought David Busch's CANON EOS REBEL T4i/650D guide book. It's good and really informative. has detailed explanations and graphics to show how and what happens if I were to change some of the settings. I'll recommend it.

Although I didn't think it would help that much since I prefer to just go ahead and shoot right away and play around with the buttons and menu on my DSLR, I still got it. 

I just felt that I want to really start taking more professional shots rather than a just taking high quality clear images… (I got a DSLR anyway… not a digital camera). So I better make some effort and put this entry-level DSLR camera to good use by getting myself a book to refer to.

 Now i need to get some extra stuff for Camie (yes. I named it).

- Screen Protector

- Cleaning Kit

- Lens cover with string attachment

- Camera Bag (I've been very picky with choosing one)

I-am-a-very-Happy-Girl.

Today. I FINALY cleaned my room and organized some stuff. Hip Hip Horray!

It's neat and tidy and I WISH it can stay like this… 

Gotta make some effort though. My room will only be messy when I need to go out early and usually I will rush since I'm a dead sleeper who can never wake up early enough NOT to rush. By the time I get home, I'll be either too tired or too lazy to do any cleaning/packing/sorting. Plus the time that I have at home are usually spent on chatting to my parents, shower/dinner and not forgetting - Face Time with Kira before Bed. :)

Hehe… Ciaosu!

Been an awesome week!

I've got so many things to be happy and excited about.

Firstly,

SMU FINALLY REPLIED ME WITH AN ACCEPTANCE OFFER!

O.M.G

sweet

AweSome

\(OVO)/

Secondly,

Went for Siti's Nadi Journey of the pulse concert.

It was exuberant. So fun and loud. 

You could see all of them putting in so much effort to prepare for this 1 hour show.

There were funny and interactive parts to keep the audience high.

Thats a prettty poster. and shoes! haha

Went to her performance with the rest of her family members too.

Her biggest supporters!

Thirdly & MOST importantly,

Our Mini but massive celebration at Universal Studios Singapore!

It's more exciting going in a group rather than just with Kira.

So I made him invite as many people to come as possible but only Siti and Naz were able to make it.

Haha.. We still had loads of fun though!

Awesome time.

My dear Kira treat us to a whole family combo meal in one of the restaurants in USS,

The Pizza Is FREAKING HUGE!

We became like this…

Adjustments

Sometimes I feel like I can do whatever I want or make my own decisions….as long as it makes me happy. 
Also because it's my own darn life.

But sometimes, when realization kicks in hard under your butt, what I want…may not be exactly what's right.
So apparently, this is just how life gets confusing but at the same time exciting.
In the past few days, I have been keeping up the "Do Whatever I Want" mentality. 
Yes, I was happy and I felt the taste of freedom and I riskily let go of my inner Bad Girl Personality which surprised not only others but also myself...

I've been receiving a lot of presents lately from PB (which stands for Polar Bear aka Kira aka Ariff).
A Bouquet of Flowers with 3 roses
A necklace
A single Rose Flower (while doing PPP laser treatment)
A pair of beautiful earrings with the eiffel tower
Star shaped hair pin (Which I've aldy lost >.<)
Cough Medicine
Another single Rose Flower (After my SMU interview)
6 of those instant Milk Tea that I love to drink during my Harbin internship
Bebe perfume
A simple Black Gold heart bracelet (Gold-plated from JustMe Style)
2 Bosini Tees
+ lots of food and snacks +

and… he said there's more coming….
Any girl would be freaking happy to be treated and pampered like a princess/ baby/ the Only one.
All the efforts put in to get me to fall back in love with him….it was quite expected since I've already known him for so long….and he was my boyfriend once before.
Nothing was quite that surprising. He was trying his best to be that guy that I've loved and cared before.

Sadly, my heart doesn't react that strongly to someone who have hurt me so much. Feelings are still there, solid and intact. I guess I just need some time. (Or probably LOTS of time and to see LOTS of effort) before I can really see him as a life long partner who I would share my future with.
And when I really see some changes in him…
like being more responsible, mature… and also some changes in his attitude, maybe then I would be able to really love him back the way he loves me.

I'm just scared of getting hurt once more.
Not only does it affect me, i'll affect my family and my friends…
and that sucks.

But I guess I have to give him some credit for all that he has done. I mean, it took a lot of courage, bravery and also love for a guy to come back for the girl that he regretted leaving.
Not to mention the pride and ego he have to sacrifice.
And All those criticism that he has to face from people who knew about our situation…
Even I myself wouldn't be able to take it.

I think that's just why I gave him a second chance. Not for all the things that he has bought for me… but for the efforts made to make me happy and also for making me believe that I'm the only girl that can make him happy and that he has learnt his lesson 

- the hard way - 

No use Wondering how things will get from here…things will just have to happen.
I've already been surprised so many times on how things can suddenly change and turn to an opposite direction…I think it's just best to stick to my lady instinct and go with the flow. My heart will lead the way. Hopefully the right way. Only time will tell.

Chiao! :)

Question marks?

Things have been going pretty smoothly in my life so far for the past few months. (After much suffering)
But now…I feel better with no heart aches, no illness, no accidents and no major drama…

It's easy to be very happy with how things are when you don't get hurt.
Especially from people you are close with.
How can I not be happy?
I'm graduating from Poly.
I have Months of 'free-time' where I don't have to care about reports or pleasing people.
and the best thing is that I'm just happy enough that I can apply for a local University with my current GPA.
Although it's not that perfect, but at least I'm confident that it will get me somewhere…hopefully
*PRAYING hard to get into SMU Bachelor of Sci (Information Systems Management)*

I have learnt to forgive and forget. That is just how I have managed to moved on with my life and just be happy. I guess it's no use keeping past regrets and hatred inside our hearts.
It will only make you mope around, feeling depressed, empty and lonely. These kind of feelings are just scary. I've matured (a bit) and learned from my mistakes. I don't want anymore childish love drama where I keep making the same mistakes again and again, hurting myself and that person.

Maybe that's why I sort of gave up. Gave up on this little thing call love.
It's not like I'm turning heartless or I don't have any sort of feelings anymore…
I'm just scared. There's so many 'What If's and there's also the question of my own feelings that have been forcefully frozen by me during that depressing period.
It was the only way to get me focus on what's happening around me.
What's currently important that I have to accomplish.
Apparently, opening my heart and falling in love has become sort of a little trauma that I have faked so that I won't get hurt anymore. My tears, just won't fall easily for guys anymore. Especially for the one who have made me like this.

I did so many things to keep myself distracted from all the harsh flashbacks or sweet memories that would only turn me moody for days.
I started going for Hip Hop dance lessons, started work, tried to keep myself busy with my business and also I even met new people.
I also tried to start a healthy eating lifestyle.
Ate less chocolate and ice cream, research more about calories and food that helps increases metabolism, eat more fruits, have oatmeals for breakfast and also I became more aware of the Nutrition label of the stuffs that I buy from the supermarket.
I even dyed my hair for a lighter shade just to see how I would look like and I even watched a WHOLE LOT of beauty/fashion/skincare/makeup YouTube videos to occupy my time with. Helps a lot I guess.
Not to mention, I did a lot of Shopping. ;)

After much effort put in to keep myself from drowning into a miserable state…
Was it fair?
To have snacks of which had been my favorite once before, being 'mysteriously' placed in front of my door in a supermarket plastic bag...
To receive a card and a letter with unreadable yet familiar handwriting, making me feel weird all over...
To be surprised by that person's appearance under my block, streaming words of explanation...
To suddenly realized that actually, love wasn't all that lost (for HIM)?

To suddenly come back and ruin all my efforts of forgetting…
To have my heart shaken once more….

Just when I thought I have finally found a way to let go.
Things just got complicated.
Once more.

SMU Open House & my failed attempt at counting calories

SMU Open house was just great.

I went with mama but we came late because we were at a wedding invitation before that. 

Had a tour around the campus with my mother and it was a 'fat-burning-walking-in-heels exercise' =/

My feet was hurting.

Snapshot At The Wedding.

I didn't take much pictures of the SMU open house though. Haha… 

Was too busy complaining about my blistered feet.

However, I did went to the booths of Information Systems and Social Sciences and asked A LOT of Questions. (Especially for IS)

Seriously need all the info i can get to make the right decision. and also one of the lecturers who talked to me said...

"Being in the wrong place and degree for 4 years can be a really sad thing"

I agree. 

So glad that I went for the Open house, even though in wedding-event outfit and too glamorous painful heels. I have finally made a Solid decision on which degree I should opt for as my first choice. 

DEFINITELY INFORMATION SYSTEMS.

It's So Business IT! It's like an extended version of my Business IT diploma. 

Although I've been in deep thought of switching to social sciences and majoring in sociology, because I was very interested in the modules that they were teaching, I guess Business IT is still just for me. 

IS is not like computer science, hence the happiest thing here for me is that I don't have to face hardcore IT modules for 4 years in Uni. Haha. 

This is my monday lunch menu for my sisters. 

Fried Macaroni. :)

AND YES! I shall admit that I've failed at counting my calories and I had a couple of cheesecake and have been drinking irresistible White Chocolate Frappucino with choco chips at work in Starbucks. :(

Not to mention, my free food option when I'm having a break would always be buttery croissant with butter, strawberry jam and philadephia cream cheese spread.

Gosh. 

Although, I am sure that my daily calorie intake was below the recommended 1700 (Since I don't really eat much) but it was unhealthy. Lol.

I SHALL TRY HARDER THIS WEEK.

For this week, I shall stop trying to count calories (temporarily) and just focus on eating more healthier options. 

Like oatmeals with no-added sugar soya milk for breakfast. (Which I did today)

and maybe I'll serve myself some salad when I get back home from my Starbucks on boarding tonight. 

Haha… Haix…

I better go now…

CHIAO

Starbucks + Healthy Diet Kick Off!

Hye hi!!
I have not been blogging like forever…
So sorry for neglecting my inner blogging interest the past few weeks.
Things have been quite busy not gladly not stressful. :D

I've started my part-time job in Starbucks for about 3 weeks now and I am loving it.
The people are friendly and there are SO many recipes to learn!
Best part is that I can drink my fav Starbucks frappucino almost every day! Twice every shift to be precise. Tall size each. We could also get a pastry (selected ones only) to munch on during our break. :)
I always opt for their Old Glazed Fashioned (It's like a Donut) or their Buttery Croissant!
Would warm up the croissant and spread cream cheese, butter or jam on it. SO AWESOME.

We could also get their all time favorite New York Cheesecake 

BUT I've been trying to get myself on a healthy-eating life style…

Lemme tell you. IT'S NOT EASY. Especially when I'm working for Starbucks and Have the option to get myself a White Mocha or Chocolate Chip Cream Frappucino anytime I want….

Temptations….temptations…temptations...

I have been trying to count my calories and it helps a bit but I think I need more accurate recording of every morsel that gets into my mouth.

I snack too much apparently =/

Guilty.

Oh well… Healthy eating doesn't come about fast and it needs time. Needs practice to hold on that thought of getting a Garrett Popcorn Chicago Mix or that yummy-licious raspberry cheesecake or that chocolate molten lava cake before we regret it in the end.

So I guess it would be good to keep on blogging on my progress frequently to keep myself on track. :)

I don't really have to lose anymore weight but I can't help it. I just gotta hit that weight of 45kg one day. It's like an unnecessary But important goal for me…You may think I'm being ridiculous, but I think its a nice weight for my short height.

Maybe then, instead of being called SHORT, people would describe me as petite.  ;D

However! I have not been weighing myself since the last couple of months since even before NOV 2012 because I just KNOW that I've gained a lot of weight. For now, I'll just concentrate on eating healthy, low carb, low calorie, low/non fat food that provides me with lots of energy that could make me last throughout those tiring shifts at work. 
Also at the same time, munch on snacks that helps to burn off more fats if I ever feel hungry, which is actually and TRUTHFULLY very seldom. 

The Doc said my stomach have shrank after all those years of eating tiny portions and losing so much weight. To the point where it's so easy to feel so full for me. 
When I say easy, I really mean it. One cup of Milo and a biscuit is enough for me to last me for a whole day of fasting during fasting month… 
Going for a Buffet dinner is always a waste since I can't get much in me anyway...

I've come to learn that metabolism is the key. An increase in metabolism would definitely make losing weight so much more easier. Something that I really need to improve on.

Gonna do some research and I'll try my best to keep my blog updated to that I could remind myself and share about the healthy eating/diet tips that I've learnt. ;D

UPDATE:
Went out for a little late night shopping in Metro with my mother and we also stopped by Cold Storage to get some stuff to kick off my diet tmr morning.

Oatmeals.
Bananas.
Pears (My favorites were on discount!)
Bread. (Although not whole grain but I'm not gonna touch them though…much)

Ciao!

Family Day Movie Outing! PARENTAL GUIDANCE

Had an awesome day today!

Spent time with the whole family plus my uncle and my cousin too. 

My mother was very interested to see how Scape Baazar is like so since we're planning to watch a movie, we decided to book tickets to watch PARENTAL GUIDANCE and visit the Flea/Baazar while waiting for the show to start.

Seems like after looking around Scape, my mother and father was pretty happy. Haha :)

They planned to open a booth there one day too.

OK! Here's a movie review!

THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME.

I would give it 5/5 for comedy and emotional scenes.

I Laughed a lot and also cried a lot.

The story is mostly about the grandparents trying their very best to get closer to their problematic kids and they haven't gotten the chance to properly do it because of how they would always disagree with Alice's (their daughter and mother of the 3 kids) way of parenting. When the opportunity comes for some 'alone' time for Alice and her husband, Alice needed someone to take care of the kids and the grandparents (especially the grandmother) saw this as a golden chance to build a stronger relationship with the young ones. They are keen on NOT becoming the "other grandparents".

I love how they fit in the different characters and problems of the kids and how makes me so emotional when scenes about family love/stress are shown. 

This is a perfect family movie. 

DO catch this one! You won't regret it.

More about the movie can be found here:

 *The website looks so cool btw! Wish I could make a website just like that… Hmmm probably can try…*

Here's a trailer!

ARTEASE @ Cineleisure

Hey all!

AmoLaModa would always be at Scape Baazar level 4! Do come down and support us alright!

For all those that have been supporting us, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

That being said, I better get collection 4 updated into the website. it has been delayed for quite a while. oops. I SHALL DO IT TOMORROW!

anyway… Guessed what?!
Right after Dance class, Me and Kenlia went for a break to get something to eat or drink.
I introduced Kenlia to a famous milk tea/tea/coffee shop there called Artease.

 I'm super in love with their Salted Caramel Milk Tea.

 It's supercilious!

Here's a look at their Menu. :)

Today I tried their Double Chocolate (3rd Column) and Kenlia tried their Chocolate Mint Milk Tea. I'm quite satisfied with the taste of my double chocolate (Very chocolatey indeed but not that strong though) but! It would be SOO much better if the drink had more ice or if it's colder. Same comment goes for Kenlia's drink too. Kenlia's drink is minty but the mint taste is not that strong and you can taste the nice blend of mint, chocolate and milk tea in her drink. 

Sadly, We just wished our drinks could be served colder since it was freaking hot outside! Haha…

RATING for ARTEASE

Customer Service: 3/5

One issue I have about Artease is that no matter how many times I tell them that I want 'Less Pearl', I'm sell getting SO much of them! This is quite irritating actually because I seriously can't enjoy my drink when there's too much pearl in it.

But I guess I could forgive them because they were in a rush anyway and there was a Long queue behind. Even customers have to be understanding sometimes ;p

Quality: 4/5

I'm not actually an expert on giving good reviews about the quality of their drinks but I guess that it was quite satisfactory. Their milk tea was quite nice and milky to me and I liked it very much. It has that 'Not-Your-Average-Milk-Tea' kind of sensation.

Taste: 3/5

Yes. I gave it a 3 for taste. What can I say…. I've got high standards.

*Biased mode*

Overall Satisfaction: 3/5

Seriously, they should just learn how to relax and try to make every order as nice as possible. It will probably help if they could stop rushing so much and just concentrate on trying to make sure that the drinks are cold enough and customer's preferences are taken into consideration. (I'm just still puffed up about the drinks not being cold. There were only small tiny pieces of ice floating on top!) =,="

Comments for those who might want to try Artease:

- ASK FOR LESS PEARL (Especially if you've just eaten lunch and if you're ordering the large size)

- DO try Salted Caramel Milk Tea. :)

I'M GOING TO TRY THIS NEXT!

DSLR Dilemma!

I am currently trying to research as much as possible about DSLR cameras. 

Why? 

- Because i've been wanting a DSLR camera since I left Photography Club when I left Secondary School - :'(

For 3 years and I'm still no where near on getting it because of financial reasons and also because I'm busy doing other things. But ever since I became the photographer for some events in school and used the school's DSLR camera, my photography interest (which was already there) just got 'maxified'.

*I've created a new word: MAXIFIED* HAHA

Now that I am an active blogger, I seriously want a DSLR camera.

Because I've been to events like EOY Cosplay Festival where I can find so many willing subjects to take great shots but I became depressed when I couldn't capture their awesome poses and costumes finely. Not only that, even during my long holiday trip in Indonesia, it was just so disappointing when I couldn't get awesome pictures for those memorable experiences.

SO! I have made myself serious on getting a DSLR this year.

"When there's a will, there's a way!"

… Find part-time job…

Here's the two DSLR that I am currently considering. 

*I might consider other models after doing more research though*

Nikon D5200

Canon EOS 650D

I'm totally having a headache on figuring out which brand would be better.

NIKON or CANON.

I've been using Canon camera in photography club and I'm very fond of it.

But I understand that NIKON would be recommended for beginners because it has a much more friendlier and easy to understand user interface hence it would make any novice photographer like me to understand the camera functions better.

However, I wonder how much of the explanation from the small screen of the DSLR camera would really make any difference because I would also be taking my time to understand the camera functions and their basics by googling or watching tutorials in Youtube.

Like this YouTube video that I've just watched. It's very helpful.

Hmmmm…. Please leave a comment if you have any suggestions. 

Thank you! (^_^)
