Photo editing and me – learned something new!

As I browsed through the blogs today, I found some photos which were definitely edited in an interesting way. Then the authors mentioned some hard to get words like ‘leveling’ and raw stuff or other- curiosity didn’t kill this cat, but I knew I wouldn’t be content until I found out how they did it and what those ‘leveling’ terms mean. Faintly I recall Shuk saying something about the modern photographer nowadays editing their pictures with programmes before publishing them (yeah I might have got the idea to put my web address on my pics from that)…so I opened my Photoshop…and -voila!- some exciting, new ,and possibly precious information entered my shapka-ruined-hair-covered brain- and it kept me stuck here for about an hour before I wrote this entry.(ok I lied a bit-I ‘google’d the words and read a bit before I opened the programme)
Anyway here are some experiments I did, though I’m not actually proud of them yet…this might prove to be useful in the future…


PS:(currently i'm in a mood@ state of apparent blogging madness-as u can see,i have made 3 successive entries in the course of 1 night,so uploading these pictures, unqualified as they mightbe, is justified)

clinical pharma: post -mortem

I’ve just finished clinical pharmacology. It’s fun. Twice we went to our rector, Petrov’s lecture for doctors in which I gratefully slept (what? I was tired and needed sleep), and most of the time was a fun 2 way discussion in which Professor Frolov presents a case and we try to guess how the best treatment would be for the patient in different circumstances. Each drug’s side effects, interactions, p/kinetics were taken into account, and our case history report was a bit complicated, but exciting because I needed to explain why I chose the drugs in detail. We even had to make a table for interactions between all the drugs in the treatment course (actually very complicated. I didn’t do that well, but I tried, hehe). Bunyi mcm gempak..and I actually felt gempak too, right until the point I realized it was a bit too complicated, and then realized more could have been done. (As always, I’m a last-minute worker…ask my mom, ask my housemates.they’ll vouch for that, hehe)

Winter’s back!

The ever innocently beautiful,pure white snow, grey sky, and slippery roads are back in town this year…don’t get me wrong, I love it, and I treasure every single moment of it. For instance, here are some of my experiences/ thoughts as I walked down the roads these past few days, though it might not sound like it, it’s actually rather fun:

• Trudging through the puddles of mud like today when the temperature’s positive and the snow melts, jumping past or taking some time to think of a maneuver that could magically keep my jeans (and miraculously, if there is the slightest chance of it-yes, sometimes I pray that hard- get my white sneakers) clear from the mud
  
• Woops… it’s slippery here. But I’m in a hurry. My solution: try beginner street-skating. A skill from years of winter experience,hehe..
  
• The weather’s actually very nice- cool and refreshing. Especially the past few days, since the temperature’s positive. Sometimes I didn’t even bother to wear my shapka (that contraption-thing you wear on your head, which I had never succeeded in wearing without making my hair stick up on ends[even when it’s short like now]-so it’s like a bad hair day everyday, as if I care that much anyway, hehe)
  That also could be the reason why I seem to have a headache every time I come back after spending too much time outside…sometimes a runny nose might keep the headache company for a while…they’re good friends nowadays. But those are minor things. ha-ha…hiccups
  
• I’d like to state a point…winter clothes are almost always never becoming on a person…I try not to stifle a laugh every now and then ever since the 1st time I saw my friends here wear them, what’s the point anyway, I’m wearing the same attire- we’re all ugly ducklings here (point: you’re wearing a cushion to class). The shapka’s always either round, or oval?( in malay I think lonjong @ bujur fits the oval description. But combine the cushion wearing and round/oval caps on your head, not to forget those boots (the last time I remember wearing them, they were uncomfortable to walk in too), and maybe if we’re speaking about comfort you might want to remember the long johns which get itchy in a warm environment…you’ll get the picture of what it’s like to live in this big freezer. Ok ok I’m complaining, but it’s just for the fun of it…hehe...complaining can be a great form of entertainment, hehe…just don’t take it that seriously.
  
  Here are some pics of...

the beautiful Russian winter...
and some of it's uglier points,(a.k.a. the ugly side of Russia)hehe
