Trip to Tokyo Japan, 06 Nov 2007

Here are some photos that I have not posted before…

We drove from Hiroshima to Tokyo. Took nearly 12 hours, none stop… :P

kkk_8351.jpg

We walked around in the city using MRT, as driving is inconvenient. Parking is a headache and expensive. We did drive to some places.

kkk_8353.jpg

Saw this Christmas tree as according to my wife, and she said must take photo…

MRT station…very much like Singapore, so not that difficult for those who have used MRT before.

Walking around in the street…

Megumi is fully protected. Autumn, quite cold already…

No tripod, no guli…so we use self-portrait most of the time. Sorry, Megumi not in the frame… :P

Electric at my house…

Posted on April 3rd, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family.

Yeah, got it fixed last Monday. Took a week + for them to come and fix the meter, which I think is quite fast.

One “irritating” thing about the cable by the developer is that from house to house it using obvious black cable…which is quite eye sore and we cannot cover it as under TNB instruction.

My wife and Megumi on MSN

Posted on March 28th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family.

Still the best video conferencing software in the world. Tried Google video, yahoo video…etc., MSN though not perfect but still is among the best in delivering video quality.

(Background purposely blurred in Paint Shop Pro)

Megumi is boss pose eating porridge.

My wife and Megumi. Now Megumi want to hold the spoon herself.

msn02.jpg

I miss them both.

I bought two Logitech QuickCam® Family E3500 webcam for the above purpose, which I am quite happy with the quality of them. Delivering good quality photo (in Malaysia slow internet line service), good exposure and white balance.

logitech-quickcam-e3500.jpg

The cam can be placed on the monitor screen easily, but no securely. No clip, but a V shape stand (can be adjusted) to put on the monitor. The design is fine, as clip sometimes does not match thick monitor.

Got my house key…God is good!

Posted on March 19th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family.

Got my house key two days ago (Tuesday).

God is good! I only have to pay the overdue charges of around RM750! So much lower than I initially expected! The developer gave me 25% discount from the original price of RM10xx. They minus out all the holidays, hence the final fine becomes low.

Thank God for the saving. :)

Got the keys. 3 sets all together. One set has around 9 keys.

Next…waiting for renovation to start. I think still need to wait for 2-3 months before I can actually move in.

By the way, have also applied for water and electric facilities. Might take 1-4 weeks as according to the developer to install those two things, depending on the applications SAJ Holdings Sdn Bhd and TNB, so nothing can be done now (or no rush at the moment). Water deposit is RM90, while electric is RM280 + some other fees (I paid RM400 + RM10 stamp duty). Not exactly sure why the RM400, but will check the bill later.

Have the urge to move immediately to my new house…my very first and own house…home of my family (Lydia, Megumi and I). God is good, God is so good to me. :)

House key…almost there…

Posted on March 14th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family.

Going to get my house key soon…should be Monday or Tuesday next week. Will have to pay some penalty to the developer though, as they only give me 3 months to get the payment to them and it has been over 4 months now. It is around RM70 per day, so will need to pay around RM3k penalty. :(

The good side, finally…after such a long wait…let’s celebrate! :D

We have a family outing at Taiping Zoo yesterday.

At the entrance before going in. Ticket is RM8 for kids (3-8years old), RM12 for adults and RM10 for senior citizens (age 55 and above). The ticket counter said Taiping locals have RM4 discount…but we honestly tell her that we are not. Let’s support the local zoo. :)

Photo Editing - Simple Tutorial (by Kho King)

Posted on February 13th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family, Photography.

My sister asked me how come my photos so nice colour, what setting I use for my camera and if I use flash or not. It is hard to explain in words, so I have decided to write a small and simple tutorial here.

kkk_1385_2.jpg

After discovering Lambency, my flash photography results have changed entirely. Flash no longer harsh and everything seems to be very natural even for indoor shots. I no longer scared of using flash, and no longer having the problem of “fake” flash type of photos. I have blogged about Lambency before, which you can read in the link below:

http://shashinki.com/blog/?s=Lambency

As to where you can get the Lambency diffuser, visit:

http://shashinki.com/shop/lambency-m-69.html

If your original photos are already of very harsh flash result, then editing will be very difficult. Not everything can be corrected in post processing, so try to get things RIGHT on the first place.

Chinese New Year 2009 in Miri :)

This is the first time Megumi came to Miri. I have not been back there, my home town, for 3 years+, since I went to Japan. Hmm…maybe not…I did went back during my sister’s wedding. Anyway, it is definitely Megumi’s first visit. :)

We went to my father’s house for Nien 30 dinner, which is a tradisional gathering of Chinese family.

The cheong sam that Megumi wore was bought in Japan. I guess next year she can’t fit in anymore… :P
