A Freelance Photographer Hectic Lifestyle

It’s been a while since I decided freelancing as a photographer, my daily life besides studying also includes practicing my photo editing skills, it’s a hobby that fascinates and boost enthusiasm. This week,4th week of the year 2008, I’m really laid with loads of responsibilities, from meetings to daily assignments, it just keep coming in. Well that’s unavoidable since its… common…

(Malaysia Airlines Tickets.... for sale)
This week’s Wednesday, I went to the MAS office to deal with some ticketing issue for my friends. (WOW Frisco, so kind of you)… that’s also part of my “service” for society. There are about 5 tickets which I have to reconfirm their flights schedule. I arrived at the office at 2 but waited for almost 30 minutes to get to the counter. My number is 79 and the current number is 77 yet I waited for quite a time.

(My Working bag, where i use to put in my laptop, digital camera... and... other stuff..)
It’s not the MAS attendance problem; apparently it’s the costumer who has been chatting with the female attendance… luckily I didn’t take their photo because I was like “hey dude, don’t you know at your back waiting is a photographer, I can let you get published in the headlines you know…!” kinda thing. Harsh, but I can’t avoid thinking about it…

(my BAG.... )
While waiting, I manage to get some creative shots to loosen my boredom. This is my bag that I bought for half the price of 2000bath over in Thailand that day. In it, I store my laptop, digital compact camera, mp4 and other stuff. Very nice bag, it’s a 4 in one bag… there’s a strip for carrying on your shoulder, two backpack stripe, a carrying handle to carry it like a suite case, and then you can backhand carry it too. Nice huh?

(tense.... evryone argue for something... worth argueing...)
Sometimes on certain photography assignment, I prefer to bring this bag with me, I store my laptop, memory cards, D SLR, lens, cables and other equipments in this single bag. Not as safe as the well known photographer bag- Lowepro for sure, but for now, this is somehow good enough for me. Oh, I can hang my tripod too on it… good huh?

(during the meeting which turn out to be... quite disapointing)
In the evening, right after coming back, I didn’t have the time to rest; I’m required to go for a meeting for the Student Representative Department that same evening. Luckily the shower did refresh me, it’s best to have the shock of mix cold fusion to your skin, blood flows really well, causing you to feel… revived…

Hectic? Not really, I didn’t share it all. If you are in my place… you will be… hell….
