MALAS

The common MALAS is a mild infectious disease which effects the limbs,arms and especially the brain.Its symptom is the lack of desire to act or to work,to stretch one's forces:tendency to rest and do nothing(often these occur simultaneously) which will last from matter of moments(few micro seconds) or up to several years...Ha,ha,ha
I have to admit it that I'm suffering from this MALAS disease recently.Why?...as you can see,my blog is not being updated for more than a month!!!another new record there.
I know!!!The climate may affect the desease by some means.Some of you may already know that I just came back from my 2 weeks vacation in malaysia so...malaysian(bukit gambir,muar) climate vs japanese(adachi ward,tokyo) climate.
The obvious diffence between those 2 climates is the daily 4 scheduled free,instant and eat-all-u-want meals...which resulted a dramatic 5 kg increase on my weight.I've summarized a calculation below:

(My Life x daily 4 scheduled meals) / 14days = 5Kg

(My Life - daily 4 scheduled meals) x 0.15* = MALAS

*=personal hypoactivity variable

OK,I've exaggerated enough.

Bringing your attention away from my MALAS syndrome which is awfully contageous, I finally could find some time to go a photoshop near my apartment to get myself a batery for my APS camera.My APS camera had been dead for sometime due to it's flat lithium batery.
When I turned it on,it seemed to be in a good condition...the lense was not blurred,the flash was still working(far more brighter than my Sony T-1) and the optical zoom which goes 'zheeet...zheeet'.Then came the real test whether the film was still OK or already rot after 4,5 years of neglection.I still could not remember how many shots were take but I'm sure at least there is one.So I sent the APS film to the same photoshop for imaging and the result is below:


only 2/25 shots were taken...such a waste


This is rather a nostalgic shot,me with Mikey near SFMOMA(San Francisco Museum Of Modern Arts) in spring 2001.


The latest shot...5 years later - the less prettier side of my room...blurred,evidence of a deteriorating APS film.

Back to my MALAS issues...hey!I won't stop blogging like some peeps that I know...probably a little late on the updates but I'll go on.

Post scriptum : It's summer now in Japan with temperatures between 25-29 degrees celcious.So,it's not the weather.
