THE ONE WITH THE DINOSAUR ART OF LOVE LANE

Why is this photo of me pulling the angry dinosaur from running away?

 

Or was the angry dinosaur chasing somebody? – Who knows?

 

It resembles of a person using full strength, pulling the silent killer away from

attacking the next victim.

 

Nobody knows how long of  this will going on and nobody knows if there is a good evidence of any type of vaccine specification for the novel coronavirus. (I hate this virus name on my blog.) Until now, people, you, me, all of us are…fighting.

 

We don’t have super powers like superheroes/avengers, but we have faith that we will win this fight one day. As the battle of the virus continues, keep yourself away from getting infected and stay at home by self-distancing.

A little throwback story:

That photo was taken back 1 day before I left for college perhaps second year I believed. I requested to travel on the busy town of Penang (Georgetown), The Love Lane (Lorong Love, but why isn’t called ‘Lorong Cinta’ ?..Lol) was a hottest spot to take photos of the wall-arts in Instagram and many international tourist and local visitors travelled there just to pay a sight-seeing.

 

At that time, I was only a teenager hustling down to finish my course and to end my semester with flying colours. Until now, I am so grateful for the nostalgic moments back in college. It was around 16 years old that I found and discovered photography through socmed platforms. You know like portfolios? Yup…. I even own my first lens back then on the same year and that is how I start to explore the world of photography. I just love weird angles and micro settings. It is nice to see bright colour walls of township shops, people melted into a wave of strangers crowding the supermarkets/boutiques/eateries/hawker stall. Objects are the first subject I’d took and explore while being a tourist in my home town. Later on, I begin to capture candids of strangers walking by the most happening destination. Normally, I will took snaps of tall buildings, skyscrapers and historical buildings but not really have the chance to go and explore due to school projects so I just do what I can.

A book I have been reading is, Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto. A simple story that Yoshimoto writes with sincerity which describes the dept affecting about mothers, love, unforeseen circumstances, and the power of kitchen which we will normally go to, no matter what happens. Ask yourself, if you are in a deep depression state, the first thing you came home and heading to is the kitchen. A cup of water to wash away the anxiety, anger and sad emotions within you. This book experiences about the grief, one who encountered the loss of the loved one, the heaviness of uncertainty and the fear of accepting the fate of the situation. Following the death of her grandmother, Mikage Sakurai found her self alone, drifting away from the world with a sense of disconnection from the people around her. Fortunately, she was taken in by Yuichi Tanabe, a young boy who formerly part-time working at Mikage’s Grandma flower shop and his transgender mother, Erika; until she can find a place for her own. As she prepared meals for Yuichi and Erika, she soon discover that, the kitchen is a place where she found cooking a therapeutic and nourishing pastime, and soon it has become a raison d’etre for her. And the story continues…….There is another story after Kitchen, Titled: Moonlight Shadow, also the same theme but different storyline. 

 

I still am watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S. sitcom, Gilmore Girls, YOU and blah blah blah (joking..). In F.R.I.E.N.D.S. when Ross and Emily are tying the knot scene, and Rachel came to London to confessed her feelings to Ross (very messy and it ends the other way round.) and my most favourite apart is when Monica and Chandler’s London romance scenes begin (7 times and yet still on-going, if you know what I’m thinking…)

 

P/S: I am craving for hot chocolate and marshmallow at this hour.  

Stay safe and healthy peeps!
