Recently have been feeling quite burned out, probably going to slow down or go on hiatus for shoots until AFA. (Even though last shoot was last week only = = )
Don't really feel like shooting nowadays, mentally drained, lack of inspiration, and just want to take a break.
Not because I have too much shoot, but mainly due to day job.
Just put it this way, I enjoyed my 2 years compulsory military service more than my current job.
And my military role for the most part of 2 years is a (layman term) tank and armored vehicle tech, hot/dirty/greasy/heavy/smelly/etc situation kind of job XD!

Onto the positive side of life.
I really enjoyed the 10 days Sydney trip, even though it was physically tiring, but it was equally enjoyment, especially on the mind and heart.
To be able to see and experience the beautiful places and weather.
Probably looking to go for another long trip next February.

In the meantime, I will try to process out the Sydney shoots' photos soon!

- Project Touhou with Nad and Mad from :icongundamfamiglia:
- Sound Horizon (Marchen) with :iconstrawdoll: and :iconitakoaya:

AFA scheduled morning shoots (still in planning phase)

- One shoot with :iconseseostara: and friend
- One shoot with :iconbehindinfinity: and friend

After AFA, I will be going for Malaysia's Comic Fiesta convention, which is an annual event (since 2008) for me to go catchup with friends and have fun there!
It will be a big event, since it's their 10 anniversary this year!

No planned shoot yet, but will start discussing with people that will be interested to collaborate! :D

*edit*
I really like this Commencement address delivered by Steve Jobs at Stanford University in 2005. [link]

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
