Last night, I dreamt about something – I have a Nikon D3.

I always wanted a D3 but I know I can never afford one so I stopped thinking about it.

However, last night’s dream made me think about it the whole day today.

The Nikon D3.

In my dream, I was taking pictures for something. I can’t remember what but I was holding a D3 with a Nikon AF-S Zoom NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G Zoom Wide Angle-Telephoto ED Autofocus Lens.

This was mounted on the D3.

Then someone came to me, asking me to take a group shot. This someone asked me, “Eh, your camera wide enough or not?”

I answered, “Nevermind lah, I got the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G Zoom Ultra Wide Angle ED Lens in my bag mah,” which I then mounted it on to my D3.

I took this out from my bag and mounted it.

This guy then asked, “You got flash? Quite dark here you know!”

I answered, “Don’t worry, I got the Nikon Speedlight SB-900.” I then mount it on to the hot shoe of my D3.

Put this on my hot shoe. (BTW, I have this in reality)

I took the picture and then this same guy (seriously, I don’t know who he was!) came to me and said, “We taking pictures there, your lens long enough ar?”

I answered, “Can lah, I got the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8D G Zoom Telephoto AF VR Zoom Nikkor AF-S ED-IF Autofocus lens here,” and mounted it onto my D3.

I have this as well in the bag!

Then I woke up to reality, staring at my Nikon D90 with the Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR kit lens mounted and the Nikon Speedlight SB-900 on the hot shoe. *sigh*

Oh well. Have to work harder lah.

I just came back from Frederick and Wai Pooi’s wedding dinner. It was really nice catching up with the ex-colleagues. Anyway, if I’m still blogging, that means I’l still sober…Right? As usual, I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

Me and the groom. Frederick was my senior in Country Heights and Wai Pooi was from another department in Country Heights.

Ex-colleagues catching up. (From L-R) Tammy, Sophia and Bong. Beh at the bottom. Sorry for cutting your head into half.

The ex Country Height-ians. More than half of us are ex Country Height-ians. Hehe

The bride and the groom. Frederick and Wai Pooi.

The customary “yum seng”. I think I screamed “yum seng” too much. I’ll most probably be without my voice when I wake up tomorrow.

Another group photo. Me with Raymond the magician and Bong. Sitting down (From L-R), Vincent and wife, Tammy.

Ok. I need to pen off (or keyboards off, whichever you prefer) right now to catch some shut eye. I have a magazine to wrap.

Once again, congratulations to Frederick and Wai Pooi. You guys are the perfect couple.

I recently blogged that my netbook is very slow and it might need a reformat to clean everything up and start brand new. I did something better.

I had an influx of SSD drives for review recently.

Picture proof.

So I’ve decided to install one of it into the netbook. The Kingston drive is a review unit but it’s also the highest end and most expensive one. I will have to give it back eventually.

The Intel SSD (X25-M) has the highest capacity (160GB) and it’s currently in my netbook. They’ll take it back but I hope not so soon.

ADATA sent me their SSD from Taiwan for a review. Review done. Don’t think they’ll take it back. Will most probably be using this in the office.

I’ve installed Windows 7 Ultimate on my netbook as well. It boots up in about 25 seconds and everything is so snappy!

Yeah, this is a filler post.

I’ll be going for a charity treasure hunt organized by Acer over the weekend. The hunt will start from USJ all the way to Port DIckson (ok lah, not really “all the way”). Participant’s fee is set at RM50 and I have Ken and Huei in my team.

Ken and Huei was the champion of the last major treasure hunt, the Samsung Innov8 Run, and I recently won third place at the Maxis treasure hunt around the Bukit Bintang area. You can call us the dream team if you want.

Today, at the DiGi Turbo 3G event, I won the first prize for an SMS contest (A HP iPAQ Data Messenger) and Ken won second prize (A Nokia XpressMusic 5800). Huei won third prize at the Creative event (A HD REcorder of some sort). This is a sign I tell you. A FREAKING SIGN!

With a team like this, how can we not win? MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

I’ll be driving my mum’s car as my car is not serviced yet. We’ll have the assistance of my Garmin Nuvi 200W GPS as well! Each of us will be bringing our laptops. I have Maxis’ Unlimited 3G on my iPhone, P1W1GGY, a 150MB Maxis SIM 3G SIM card, a Maxis HSPA dongle with Maxis Unlimited 3GB broadband and today and a 6 months free unlimited 3G that DiGi gave me today for my DiGi line. Pairing the connectivity options with our laptops, we’ll have internet on the go! Google will be our best friend! I’ll also be bringing a portable charger so our phones won’t go out of juice.

The only thing we don’t have is a name for our team. Ideas?

P.S. Wern Shen will be a live mannequin in Tangs, Pavillion, tomorrow and he’ll be up against three famous bloggers. I’ll try to drop Pavillion tomorrow, with a chilled beer in hand to tempt him. Heh.

Wow. It’s been nearly a month since I last wrote in this space.

Nothing much happened anyway. My brother came back, left, came back and again and went back, work is routine, attending events and stuff. So, yeah.

I’ve been thinking of replacing the ASUS EeePC 701 by selling it and replace it with my BenQ Joybook Lite, then get an Acer Timeline (any model) for work. The BenQ has served me well but it’s throwing it’s tantrum more often these days.

Maybe it just needs a HDD format, or even better, an SSD upgrade (I have plenty of those lying in the office). If I do that, I’ll install Windows 7 Ultimate on it (legal version, got it from the Windows 7 launch).

The Timeline will solve the hassle.

Let’s see how it goes.
