The Challenging Parking Meter Keypad

Our municipal councils (the Petaling Jaya one, in this case) constantly challenge us to use our minds quite a bit like right here. We need to guess the numbers to press on the keypad to key in our car plate number to pay for parking. A more advance challenge would be to have a LCD that's not working but thankfully the option is not available with this machine.

The Brief Story of Tiny Planet Haze

The locals call it aroma and with advanced technology is trying to introduce the haze to nearby worlds. They are here on Earth. They are here in Malaysia.

One Cold Drink to Cool Us All

Not a fan of Coke (I prefer Sarsi or A&W's Root Beer) but during this warm weather Malaysia is beginning to go through, anything goes!

The Story of An Inverted, Heart-Shaped Fruit Photo


The story goes like this: I had a drink with a strawberry that's stuck to the edge of the glass. Then, I placed it in front of a light source (a candle in this case) and took the photo. After that, I launched a reasonably good photo app called iPhoto. I desaturated everything except the strawberry. Next, I launched the Flickr app, rotated the image by a 180 degrees and applied the "ColorVibe" filter. 

That's about it. :)
