Slowing Down

On paper, I have a full week of clinic but looking at the list, they appeared to be quite sparse - except for the one next Monday afternoon, the last one before Raya which was full. Maybe it was time to wind down. I have done my weekly call last week and am now practically free, apart from a few scheduled chemotherapy rounds before the Raya break.

I have booked a week off, but we have yet to decide if we were going to travel to Penang or not since Idlan has got his exams coming up in September. We wanted to keep all the distractions to a minimum, and take our holidays later in the year once the exams were done.

So, I will doing all the paperworks and letters in arrears and hopefully indulge in some down time with the drone or play a session or two of video gaming. My EVE account had been dormant for a few weeks. And I have downloaded a Civilisation game a few weeks ago which I have yet to touch ….

Over by the Fountain

More Syukur Selalu - Spherical Image - RICOH THETA

The final stop for my snapping run this morning was the famous fountain in front of Pavilion. There was also decorations up at the Pavilion main entrance, mainly to celebrate Raya, theme Syukur Selalu. There was also a big drive for the new BMW X5 Hybrid going on with girls handing out leaflets at the entrance.

Otherwise, the bright sunny Sunday was capped and this certainly helped the snaps I have taken. The Theta S was certainly an adventure and I would be looking forward to do more snapping in the future ....

The Pavilion Decorations

I would write about this a bit more on another entry, but suffice to say that the decorations was functional and straight forward. There were no stalls and at one end, there was a stage which I was sure would host some dances at times. 

The place was crowded mainly with Filipino maids which I was sure on their Sunday outing. They were snapping away whicle the locals were going about teir shopping. For a Sunday, I was expecting the crowd to be bigger, and this is despite Raya only 10 days away. I guess people don't come to Pavilion for their Raya shopping then.

I also tried to dabble on a bit of video taking, but upon post-processing, I found the video to be rather wobbly and grainy. Not as sharp as I would have hoped for, but it was in VR mode. 

Fahrenheit 88 Decorations

Then it was across to Fahrenheit 88. The decorations there was simpler compared to PAvilion plus it occupying a smaller area. The buzz at the maal on the day was the opening of Shoopen, a brand new shoe outlet. A long queue outside!

Bukit Bintang Decorations

My first try at using the Theta S was at Bukit Bintang Plaza. As you can see, I was looking at the camera since I was not sure if the shutter was released or not. I guessed I could do with a bit more practice!
