Muse - The Resistance Tour



Wasn't it a few weeks ago when I first learnt of Muse's rumour concert in Hong Kong?

Thanks to the very efficient Midas Promotions, I got an email from a local ticketing outlet notifying me of the general sale of The Resistance Tour the next day. (take THAT, Live Nation!) Within a few hours, I got myself a concert partner, thus at 10 am on the day of sale, I successfully purchased 2 seated tickets for my first concert of the year in 2010! (just because we didn't want to wait at Asia World Expo all day for the general admission, tried that once and it was hell.)

I'm already super excited right now, this should be a rocking start for the year to come.

Romanticised Horror


(Angkor Wat, Cambodia, taken on 24/10/2009)

I went to Cambodia and Vietnam for 6 days on a guided tour last month.

The most memorable thing of the trip?

"It has been a peaceful 4 years," the local tour guide in Cambodia, Mr. Lam, said with a genuine smile on his face, "No sounds of gunshots at night. There isn't much worth complaining about anymore."

An Evening With Il Divo - Hong Kong 26/9/09

Concert photography always amazes me. I feel compelled to take photos at a live show, even with crappy seats, since my compact digital camera days.

On 26th September 2009, I experienced one of the fabbest photo fest at a live show so far.

It was almost perfect - first row, almost smacked in the middle, a very kind security guard who had to pretend to sleep all the time because I was snapping away. The only thing that I would like was the beautiful stage they used in Europe, Australia and USA.

Well, a girl must learn to be grateful with what she is given.
