The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus...& Ti Ne Tan

Last wednesday, we went to Queensbay. Thanks to Christine Tan aka Ti Ne Tan, Jocelyn and Nadia could not make it. Reason being Ti Ne Tan planned it LAST MIN!!! Yes, LAST MIN. You read it correctly. So, come on, scold her. Muahahaha...

Anyway, our initial plan was to have dinner and catch a movie. =) By the way, the nicely planned outing was done by yours truly. And it worked. So, once we reached, we went straight to GSC and booked the...ahem...i finally remembered...

Ladies & Gentlemen, we watched...no no no, chronogically speaking, we bought tickets of The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus. Yes, Ti Ne Tan, i finally did it. I know, I know. It was a remarkable feat. =) So after that, we went to Foto President to develop some pictures for ME.

Then, came the most anticipated moment of the day. Dinner Time!!! Again, the million dollar question awaited us. APA LU MAU MAKAN UNTUK MAKAN MALAM? After much effort and consideration, we finally decided to go to Secret Recipe.

While waiting for our food to arrive, this was what happened:-

A long time ago, in the Northern part of the Peninsular Malaysia, there was an island called Penang. And in that island, unknown to many homo sapiens, there was yet another island called The Rat's Island aka Pulau Tikus. And in that island, there was an Avatar called Ti Ne Tan. Like the cartoon Avatar: The Last Airbender, she was the Camerabender. One day, Ti Ne Tan set out to the ends of the earth. Hence, the name At World's Ends Meet aka Queensbay. There she met a homo sapien called Simin. (That's me =) )


Though she was from the tribe of Camerabender, she knew next to nothing of taking pictures. Look how shaky her hand was went taking pictures? As a brillian homo sapien, Simin came out with a few conclusions on why she could not take such good pictures like Simin.

1. No skill...yet
2. No skill...yet
3. No skill...yet
4. Hungry
5. Excited and nervous as it was her first time to At World's Ends Meet


So, the friendly and kind Simin taught the young...(Not so young actually...hehe...) Camerabender how to get a good shot.

1. Tak tau ambil gambar tak apa, tapi gaya mesti ada aka ACT professional
2. Learn from Simin aka The Pro


After teaching the Camerabender, Simin took a rest. It was very tiring to teach the Camerabender. =)


Next, we posed for some pictures. At the same time, Simin taught the Camerabender how to take close-up pictures with the photographer in it.


This was my dinner. The Camerabender copied my order for dinner as she was too excited that she mastered the art of taking pictures.


After dinner & discovering the place, we watched The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus. Evidence that we did not secretly enter the cinema.


Further evidence that we were in the cinema though it was forbidden. Since the Camerabender was with me, she showed her skills to the GSC staff. With much amazement and fear at her skills, they gladly let us in with the camera. Coz she basically unleashed the most feared weapon...The STARE!!!


Finally, we headed home. As the Camerabender, she had no license in the homo sapiens world. So, Simin fetched the not so young Avatar back home. As you can see, the Camerabender is showing off her skill, taking picture for the both of us.

In conclusion, Simin would like to congratulate the Camerabender for masterinf the skill...finally!!! =)
