    jetfynn,

    Interesting picture. Thanks.

    That's what many people believe. Not only is there an underworld photographer; there seems to be all kinds of professions which the souls of the departed ones take up at the underworld. What a pity -- even after death we still need to work to earn a living.

    ashley,

    I may be joking. But I'm dead serious on the part that I don't believe in ghosts.

    Sorry to have you confused, that "what a joke" was not meant for you, it was meant for that photo. I'm more interested in the photo than any of the other you've written. You don't have to keep on emphasizing that you're a non-believer.

    Hmm.... When someone does too much of that I-don't-believe ritual, I wonder what more interests could it get......

    This is about my brother in law's sister.

    She went missing in Gopeng, Perak on the way home from work last Friday (3 July 2009). Her home is in Kampar, Perak while her working place is in Gopeng. Normally she will follow a colleague's car to and fro work. Last Fri, her colleague was absent from work and after office hours, she hitch hiked a car back to Kampar. In the car, she phoned her husband informing him that she is on the way back already and that she is in a car driven by a man and his friends. All the men are unknown to her. At night, failing to see his wife, the husband called her handphone and failed to reach her. She has been missing ever since.

    Report of her missing has been made and it is also published in newspaper.

    I think others have said enough before.

    I didn't want to have a karaoke session too in my wedding dinners, Johor and Terengganu.

    In Johor, I managed to convince my mom because the main point is, the restaurant we booked gave us a small space since I only had 10 tables. Therefore, no karaoke provided for that little space. And I told my mom I wouldn't want to spend extra on the karaoke thingy and she agreed.

    In Terengganu, I did not want the karaoke thingy as well, both hubby and I agreed and talked to his parents. But at the end, MIL went on to hire someone to sing for the night with all the karaoke equipment, without us knowing it. We only came to know about it 3 weeks before our wedding. She said it wouldn't be like a wedding dinner without karaoke. What could I do? Argue and fight till the end? No. I chose to keep quiet and accept it. Since it was her money and she wanted it despite us telling her not to spend extra. So, I had a "kampung" singer who sang for the whole night and some relatives and friends which I do not know, singing the night off as well.

    Netty, I was the same as u, only like 5% of the Terengganu guests which I know of. So, don't worry so much. Things will work out. ;)

    " 21 years of experience in photography or 20 - 1 year experience in photography?"

    (The former being improvements with every project and the latter stopped improving after they feel that they know enough already)

    I have seen a PG who claimed himself having more than 20 years of experience and is a PRO PG with his own studio, yet his recent works are still the same as his works 20 years ago.... :dash2: :wacko3:

    This PG seriously thinks that his skill is "good" enough and he stopped improving since 20 years ago. But well, he is still claiming himself the PRO and charging skyhigh.

    I have some friends saw the same thing and commented the same thing. Personal preferences or unanimous opinion? :wink: But there are still couples engaged this PG for their weddings. Again, personal preference prevails!

    I seriously do not agree with the above differentiation and charting according to the number of weddings the PG engaged in and their pricing.

    I have seen quite a number of PGs that can provide their good years of experience yet they failed to capture the best moments of weddings.

    And I have also seen young PGs that do not have more than 3 years experience yet they are much much better than some so-called PRO PG.

    About the pricing, it has nothing to do with the experience as well as I found out along the way I looked for a PG. Let's put other factors aside. Some Pro PG had quoted me at a reasonable price, which is below RM2k for a day. While I have some newbies or not-so-pro PG quoted me RM2.5k and above.

    Sometimes it very much depends on the couples themselves. If a couple thinks that PG is worth the money and able to delive quality, they are willing to pay eventhough that PG could be classified as junior freelancer. And sometimes, paying more doesn't mean you can get good quality. Again, it all boils down to the preferences of each and every individual.

    What I normally tell my friends, go with your instinct and pocket. If you like his works and you can afford it, go ahead.

    I think we can't really classify the photographers in the market. Each of them has their own style and skill. We just can't group them with such generalities.

    Cheers :cheers:

    If a woman can betray someone who she's been with for 10 years, what do you think she's going to do with someone she just knows for 10 days(for example)?

    We often hear that ppl say don't believe in a man who says he loves you while he continues sleeping with his wife. I guess the same would apply to a woman. Furthermore her husband is treating her so well!!!

    I just can't believe there is actually a lady out there finding excuses to divorce her oh-treat-me-so-well-husband.

    Sorry if I offended anyone here.

    Starting own business is not easy. I've tried, but failed. Luckily there wasn't much money involved. But that was without any proper planning. As people always say, fail to plan is plan to fail.

    Early last year I started something with another 2 friends. Each of us came out with some money(it's little, about RM500 each) to buy the materials. We even spent another RM200++ each for some classes and tools. Things were good for the first 2 months. No profit, but were selling. Then, all of us were busy with work, and suddenly the sales stop. Even those readily available stuffs, not custom-made, were not selling at all. Few months later, we finally gave up. Those stuff that we did not manage to sell off, we distributed among ourselves. Hahahaha... Guess what we lack of was promoting and marketing.

    I still have my tools with me now, the materials are still there as well. They are basically waiting for me to pick them up again.

    Few weeks ago, I took out those materials... Gosh... I was surprised that I have so much of them... There's even some unfinished stuff...

    Hhmm... If anyone could find a RM5k 1 carat diamond ring, do PM me...

    I went to Wah Chan warehouse sales about 2 months ago... their 0.3carat diamond with E colors already cost RM2k, and that is considered cheap being it is Wah Chan. My friend bought a 0.24carat E colors white gold diamond ring in The C Club, cost RM3.2k. And I once negotiated with my contact in The C Club, 0.22carat E color, the best price she could give me was RM2.7k...

    So, I don't think it is possible to get a 1 carat diamond ring at RM5k. Well... you could if it is really a super low grade diamond. But with such a big carat, i'm sure you'll need a nice grade so that it shines better.

    Don need to apologise Erine. ;) Maybe it's 0.5carat... as 0.5 carat looks big as well. ;)
