In attempts to slow_myself_down_away_from_digital_life, I am getting my hands on film camera. Yes, the kind of camera where you need to put the film roll in and then start snapping. If you are lucky, the pictures will turn up good but if not then we let the fate decide. This is not my first rodeo on using film camera, but it definitely the first ever to buy the film and develop it using my own money. It is not cheap, which I know. What can I say, it's an expensive hobby. I used my first film roll to take photos of my favorite people. So it has more human than random pictures. It was on family event. After the last shot, I wanted to develop it before I flew to Bali but they had no lab. Luckily we have the lab in Bali. I developed and scanned the film in Ojisanfilmlab Bali. They're just a google away. They sell the roll as well. I had to tell the TSA to do the hand checking rather putting it through the scanner. They understood.

Rame rasanya. Manis, pedes, asem, gurih, asin, tawa, canda, air mata, semuanya jadi satu. Kompromi menjadi satu hal penting dalam hal ini. Kadang dia yang mengalah, kadang pula aku yang mengalah. Aku bukanlah istri yang sempurna untukmu sayang. Aku tidak...
