DIY Diffuser
Assumptions : Cheapskate, NBTD, Creativity, No $$$
Question : What do you do if you need a diffuser for your built-in flash?
Answer : Build one for yourself.
That’s what I did over the weekends. All I need is a film canister, a cutter and a lil UHU glue or superglue.
A semi-transparent film canister
How to do it??
Measure the size of your built-in flash. Have a rough estimation marked on your film canister and cut it out. Make sure that you cut a smaller hole compare to the rough estimation so it could hold onto the flash firmly.
End result:
DIY Diffuser
Now, how does it look like on my camera??
Please ignore the pillows behind it :P
I know I know, it looks weird but hey, it works pretty good. It is quite sturdy and it does not drop out easily. Besides, you could make a few more as spares. If the flash is too strong and the ‘diffuser’ couldn’t hold back, chuck in a few pieces of tissue to suppress the light till you get your liking.

No New Stuff
First of all, wanna wish Happy Birthday to my friend, Louis. Hope you have a pleasant yet exciting year ahead.
AS for me, I wanna apologize as there is no new post at the moment. My laptop is with my sister right now and my materials are inside my laptop. Hopefully, I could get it back soon. Kinda miss the laptop feel now..
Parking Area
I’m sure you guys/girls know where the heck Starhill Gallery is. If you don’t know, it is situated along Jalan Bukit Bintang,
From my point of view, their parking area is one of the worst parking areas I’ve been to so far. This is due to the fact that their parking area is not well lit and the parking lots are pretty tightly spaced. Besides, what I hate the most about Starhill’s parking are is the lanes going up and down from one level to another. It is so bloody narrow that a fat ass car could barely turn into the slopes. There are dozens of scars along the walls as prove that it is difficult to maneuver your fat (long) ass car around their parking lots. It takes a lot of effort and skills just to bring your car out of the parking lot without any scratches.
Pork Ball Noodles
IF you are so happened to in/along Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur, do drop by at a coffeeshop named Weng Hing. This corner coffeeshop is situated along Sakura restaurant and directly opposite of Kiosk shop. In there, there’s a stall that serve one of the best (probably the best) pork ball noodles in KL.
It is all about their pork balls as well as their minced pork. I can’t describe it thoroughly as you have to taste it for yourself. I’ve heard that they make their own pork balls daily (or maybe not) but that only words through mouth and so, I couldn’t guarantee about it. Do beware that the shop is packed with human beings on the weekends as well as in the morning rush hour. So, the best time to pay them a visit is at around 10am weekdays or 7.30am weekends. That’s the time when human beings are either busy working or busy sleeping.
And also, do note that the coffeeshop is kinda stuffy and warm. There are limited seats (around 10 tables) and the surrounding is not that shiny clean, if you know what I mean. A small serving will cost you RM5 (I think) and the big serving will settle at RM6 or RM7. In the same coffeeshop, there are typical Malaysian foods besides this Pork Ball Noodles. For e.g., wantan noodles, fishball noodles, char kuey teow, chicken rice etc. There is also a stall selling Seremban Siew Pau. Usually, I buy their mini egg tarts which is their hot selling item.
And yes, I couldn’t comment on other foods as I will go for the pork ball noodles only whenever I am there, that’s if I get the chance to be there.
Happy New Year
Wanna wish peeps out there a very Happy New Year!! May you have a wonderful and successful year ahead.
