REMEMBER : IF IT HURTS, IT'S PROBABLY WORTH IT

I'm Back For You

Well hello there loyal readers, and hello to those who are new readers. I've been absent for a while, I'm sure you've noticed. And by judging the last post, you can see that I've been through a tough time. I hate to tell you that after 2 years of an amazing relationship, I'm somewhat somehow 'single' now, and it's a long story to tell. But even if it was a short one, you know that I wouldn't feel comfortable talking about it now.

So anyway, how's everyone been doing? I moved to a new dormitory a couple months ago and I still have no internet connection, which is really a pain in the arse. I can't live without internet, but I can't afford going to hotspot cafes all the time either. So, please, I beg mercy from you, I'm sorry for being away these past weeks.

Another photo series? Sure! I must upload my old collection of photos though, because to be frank, I haven't held a camera for a couple of months now. Aaw, I know that it's such a pity. But I'm really fed up with college and I'm currently writing a book, remember? Don't worry though, I've got PLENTY of projects ahead of me, starting by the end of this month. Of course, photography projects. I'm gonna start taking photos of models again like I used to. And I'm doing a little modeling too myself, I'll surely keep you updated when the magazines that I'm featured in hits the magazine stands.

These photos were taken in Beijing, China, with Jason's Multicolor Holga. As I said before, if you remember, I'm not good with lomography. But yet again, the 10 rolls that I brought to China definitely paid off some cool shots. Even though from supposedly 10x12 photos, only 15 turned out good enough, and only these 4 were "blog material". Lol.

I miss you all, I really do. You readers are the ones who keep me going. Last week, I actually had this horrible idea to shut down my blog and move on with my life privately. But, I couldn't. Blogging turned out to become something I really enjoy. And the thought of leaving you guys curious really bothers me! Keep updated for new posts that will be coming up real soon. XO!


P.S : My 20th birthday is on the 27th day this month, I'm tremendously excited!

sararocks said...

Please don't ever think to quit blogging Cas! You're my role model in this stuff, if you were gone, then who I'm gonna head on to?? So, please, I beg youuuu... just stay here :]

Well, there're some ups and downs in this life. If there isn't, then you gotta be a god or maybe an alien ahaha. Their life is boring! ;]


Your photographs with lomo are great! It's kinda new in this blog I guess, you use to take a picture with SLR and it's your style. But this one, it's some kinda innovation or what :D


About the internet connection, you can buy an internet modem and start online right in your room. Internet modem is pretty cheap these days, and the providers offer an affordable charge as well. You should try one :]

Mhmm, I've noticed that since last year, and I've tried to make it as private as possible. I know that blogging about my personal life isn't such a good thing, but it just flowed that way. I'm sorry if I've caused any discomfort for you, if you don't like my blog so much, it's ok for not coming back. Thank you for the critic. I'm trying to change to be better.

...im sorry, i know i´ve sounded aggressively and rudely, i didnt mean it,but i was just wondering...i was curious about it ..but if youre ok with that is fine...btw i love your blog as it is so be cool:D...
p.s.you should be a diplomat:D or something like that:DDD

Im busy with some kind of orientation time as a candidate of Liga Film Mahasiswa ITB and it has been killing me softly just like the UTS does! Argh. I'll find the time to update mine, Cass, but you've to promise to drop some words on it, right? Ayayayay kidding ;3 btw, I want a copy of your journal-like novel later :D

Hey Cassey ! I love your art, it's so cool. Im from Malaysia btw. Im interested in photography too but I don't know what is the perfect software to edit my pictures. What do you suggest ?

school uniforms said...

@Anonymous
I won't say any software is better than an other, but I'll tell you what I prefer. I currently use Adobe Photoshop CS2 for retouching photos. Although you should get the later version, CS3 :)
