Entry 12: Camera Whore... Sentosa...

lately i feel that i am becoming much of a cam whore...

then a quick check with urban dictionary informs me that i am mis-using the word...

u see...
cam whore only refers to people who take photos or pose for photos excessively...
so people like me...
who likes to take a lot of photos do not qualify...

i am merely a cam slave at best...

but this is getting alarming...
lately whenever i see things...
or places i go...
i would think to myself...
maybe i should take a photo of that...

this is what exactly happened yesterday...
early in the morning at about 7...

before that let's get to what was i doing...
why a bum like me is up at 7am...

u see...
lately i made a digital purchase for the game Aion...
and to download the game, u would have to use its own download launcher...
problem is...
everytime that the internet connection is disrupted for whatever reasons...
the download would not resume but start from scratch again...

this was exactly what happened to me the first time i tried downloading the game...
i left it to download through the night...
only to wake up to see it was at 5% again...

and i told myself i would not let this happen again...
so i decided to monitor the download personally...
initially...
the projected time to finish downloading was about 2am...
and i thought that was quite ok...
turns out...
after some patchy connection at night time...
and a 1 GB patch that u have to download after installing the game...
everything wraps up at about 9am...

at about 7am...
i was at the kitchen...
probably making myself some coffee or something...
honestly i cannot really remember...
and i noticed that the room is abnormally dark...
while the outside is glowing in a funny yellow...
so i looked out the window and this is what i saw...















the photo did no justice to how beautiful the sky looked...
underneath the gloomy layer of dark clouds...
there was a warm, golden glow below...
sharp contrast from the top...
2 separate layers...
my words...
like the photo are not doing justice to the sky...

it was stunning~!...

later that day i went to Sentosa with my friend...
the idea was to soak up the sun and maybe swim a little...

that is when i found out...
they managed to invest $6.8billion for the resort world...
but the beach looks so dirty...
the sand is lined with junks and seaweeds...

































this is probably the only spot around that is clean...

maybe they should consider investing some money on cleaning the beach...
dirty is one thing...
but when even ur beach looks so dirty...
that says a lot...

maybe the idea is to keep people in the resort world so that they won't venture to the beaches on the other end...

then again my friend brought up a very good question...
with the resort world...
would the entrance fee increase drastically?...
if so would people still go to Sentosa just for the beach?...

by the way...
we saw a Baywatch impersonalle...
a body of well-defined muscles...
bright red shorts...
all that was lacking was the yellow thing they strap around their backs...
