this blog:

We all hear it - we all hear about 'how time is passing us by' and that 'every day counts' and etc, etc. We hear it, acknowledge it, and then sometimes (most of the time) we go on and forget about it.

In recent years, I think I really have forgotten this. I think as we get older, we (obviously) become so busy with our lives, trying to achieve this and that, do this and do that; we tend to forget how each day and time itself is ticking by.

And so, for 2012, one of my New Year's Resolutions was to challenge myself to create a photo diary for 2012: to take one photo, on each individual day of the year and at a specific time, in which I feel and experience a sense of euphoria; a moment of sheer happiness; sheer joy. At the end of the year, I would have 365 moments in time in which I could reflect on - and ultimately share - in which I've stopped to appreciate each day.

I should point out that in no way, shape or form, I'm any type of professional photographer (those 2 words and I hardly ever are put together in a sentence). I just merely have a growing addiction to take photos, especially on my iPhone.

Whether anyone sees or follows this blog or not really doesn't bother me. I basically chose to create an online blog as to ensure to myself that I actually carry this project out - and to ultimately finish it.


365: days, moments, photos, memories.

25 January 2012 - 5.02pm:


Being back in reality, I started my new job today - where it was kind of hard to believe that 48 hours ago, I was walking around Singapore, a week ago, I was walking around Angkor Wat in Cambodia, and 2 weeks ago I was walking through the many streets of Hoi An.

Having a momentary lapse of concentration - and slight mental breakdown that I really am back in reality - looking at a cup and saucer I purchased from a store in Hoi An made me smile as I can now reflect back on all the amazing things I experienced during my time away.
