Play Photobooth In My Room
Written by Nicholas Chan on June 19, 2010 – 2:58 am -Last weekend, before going back to my National Service camp, at Kem PLKN White Resort Balik Pulau, my NS friends came over to my place for a while. Then they spotted a Mac and I opened the Photo Booth application. Undeniable that this is my favourite and most most fun apps on the Mac. It’s always very fun to play with, I don’t know why I didn’t play with web cam on other computer, but just on the Mac. Yee!
People in the photos are, Boon Chuan, Sumay, Huei Sean, Jolyn and of course myself!

#16. Also lost one person. Yengness.

Away to PLKN (Day 53): Autograph Session at Foyi Children Camp 2009
Written by Nicholas Chan on May 19, 2010 – 1:56 pm -I felt like I was a superstar at the Foyi Children Camp 2009 because everyone was asking for my autograph. Haha, but actually it’s not me only, everyone signed each other shirt. So sad I didn’t wear my red shirt like theirs so I couldn’t ask them to sign mine.
Anyway, I wonder do you guys still wear the shirt with all the signatures?
Here are my autograph for people. My autograph sucks and I need to learn to sign something nice, who knows one day in the future, I might sit down and people will ask for my autograph. Hahaha, I am dreaming.
One tips of autograph is that don’t sign the same as your credit card or confidential documents. =) You need to have a special signature for autograph. So my autograph sucks by the way.
The Chinese word 校长 (xiao4 zhang3) means principal, that’s the post I gave myself. Thick face right. This is a post that does nothing.
Oh yeah! Rocks. <3 Nick.

Visit Friends on Day 3 of Tiger Chinese New Year
Written by Nicholas Chan on March 4, 2010 – 1:25 am -Spent day zero, day one, and day two with my lovely family and there’s no more family day on the 3rd day. Everyone at home seems like have nothing to do and for me, I went out early morning to Air Itam to meet up Fang Juinn who came back from Singapore, Chin Tatt and Hua Ken who came back from National Service for a short period during Chinese New Year. It had been a long time didn’t see them already.

Hua Ken and Yong Chieh.
Woke up early and went to meet up with them at a kopitiam at Air Itam, talked to them but ate nothing because have got no idea what to eat at there. No feel.

OMG. Fang Juinn is getting taller!
Met a new friend, Wuan Xin, a friend of friends’. She brought us to her grandma house and her grandma was very friendly and chit chat a lot with us. She talked about her young and even showed us her traveling photos and photos when she was young. Real friendly old lady, can talk whatever with us, youngsters. I spent like whole morning at there, later on to another friend, Yong Seng’s house for a Chinese New Year visit.

Uncle’s Chicken are always yummy!
They’re all my junior in Leo Club. A year younger than me, we eat, we play, we gamble. Chinese New Year is always about gambling, but I lose that day. Damn. Bad luck, Kenny won the most. After losing so many, we decided to stop. They went else where and I went to Gurney Plaza to walk around because I didn’t feel like going home yet.
Met people there. Walkaround and afternoon tea at there for a couple hour. Then it’s already evening already, went to another friend’s house again.
It’s Chen Yuen’s house at Perak Road. So nice that he was at home and I received ang bao again. It’s the last stop of friend’s house visiting of the day. Me, Ammerlynn and Chen Yuen was actually at there waiting other friends to come back to Penang so we could had dinner together. After dinner, I went to the cinema with my brother to watch Percy Jackson. It’s really tiring afterall, run here and run there, but then it’s fun and filled!

Throw Coconut on Thaipusam Day at Datuk Keramat
Written by Nicholas Chan on February 13, 2010 – 2:52 am -Oh hello, I am back again and now I am going to talk about the Indian’s big Thaipusam Day that happened two weeks ago. I am so lucky to be in one of the states that has big celebration for this big Indian/Tamil/Hindu festival. As far as I know, Penang and Kuala Lumpur are the two places here in Malaysia that have it big.
Last year, some friends did invite me to go to the festival to do some photoshooting, but because I couldn’t wake up so early in the morning, so I missed it. This year was different, I didn’t plan to go photo shooting too, but it’s just that on the day before, Thaipusam’s Eve, the procession has already started and I was going no where after the Chung Ling Memorial thing, so Chien Chern, my friend decided to go visit a friend at Datuk Keramat Road whose his dad’s shop is just right in front of the Thaipusam thing.
So what they had that afternoon was the coconut throwing and some procession take place and people pays respect to the Indian god by contributing prayers thing like fruits, candles.
Till now, I still remembered it’s a very hot day, the sun was hanging high in the sky, shinning down, with the heat radiating the ground. I didn’t care because I wanted to shoot the festival and share it up.
The coconuts were bought by people mostly have their business along the road, they throw the coconut on the ground, break it, is to clean the road for procession, as a respect to god, a prayer, for wealth and health. It’s said to be good luck to throw the coconut. I did try before long time ago when I was small, when my dad had a furniture shop at Datuk Keramat Road, it’s now moved to Gottlieb Road though.
At the time 2.30pm sharp, “piak piak piak” sound can be heard and coconuts were everywhere on the ground with the juice splashing out. The scene was epic. Try not to stand near to them because the coconut can be rebounded. Hehe, just like a basketball.
Part of the road was block for this thing and people who bought coconut were at the middle of the road while me and other people like me who see for fun and takes photo were on the other side, hoping that did not get hit by the coconut.
These coconuts although are hard, but it’s actually kinda easy to be squashed. At some time, some un-squashed will roll to my place and I will pick it up and join the fun too!
The whole thing was like 15 minutes. The aftermath was cool with a wet coconut juiced road and coconut every where.
The MPPP people were very efficient, when everything stopped, they quickly come and swept the coconut to a side and let the real procession began and don’t want to stuck the road.
The next thing after the coconut throwing was the procession thing, with devotees paying respect and offerings.
They walk with their bare feet and I believed the road is not hot already because it had been juiced.
I don’t really know how to describe this, so I’ll let the photos speak. =)
Happy Thaipusam, super belated!
