The day I show up in the office fairly early (earlier than my normal time anyways) and first thing was I saw crowds of people everywhere and for the first time, the Semasa Sentral security personnel deployed at various locations. I asked the guy assisting illiterate people at the season parking boom gate (yes, people cannot read a sign with 16″ letters stating “Season Parking Only” and attempt to get a parking ticket where there is no dispenser!) what is going on. He replied “api-lah” in a very nonchalant way. So anyways, I head into my parking and assume it’s all a drill.
When I get back up to the ground floor to change elevators to go up to my office, it smells a bit strange and there was an actual fire it seems. So anyways, I was a bit lazy to walk to Starbucks so I head over to Gloria Jeans, get myself a iced coffee and waited out the crowds of hard-working people queuing up to re-enter their offices. And all I could get was this blurry photo with my iPhone.

After three weddings, two portraiture shoots, two events and one pre-weddings, I’m come to realize that my Crumpler 6-million dollar home just doesn’t work out for me. It’s bulky, noisy, the shoulder straps keep slipping plus after a few hours, your neck and shoulders hurt. With three Canon ‘L’ zooms from wide angle to telephoto, two DSLR bodies and two flash units, the fact that I occasionally need two hands to access the bag makes it a big problem.
