Getting my Hands on Film Camera

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.  Cimol hides himself in his favorite spot ...

BUKU

Ganesha - Ubud. Toko buku favorit, sering jual buku antik. Benda yang gw sayang banget yaa buku-buku gw. Gw mau minjemin buku gw, tapi kalau buku gw diminta orang... hmmm... nggak dulu deh ya. Kalau minjemin pun pasti mikir-mikir dulu, orangnya bertanggungjawab apa nggak hehehee. Dari kecil, orangtua gw selalu minta untuk berhemat ya karena kita memang dari keluarga yang biasa saja. Uang jajan gw biasanya setengah dari uang jajan temen-temen gw. Bukannya mereka pelit, ya emang dibiasain hidup gak foya-foya aja. Lagian juga gw nggak punya alasan kan, karena belum punya duit sendiri haha!  Tapi kalau soal buku, nggak usah ditanya. Semahal apapun pasti dibeliin kalo emang perlu. Royal banget kalo soalan buku. Karena prinsip mereka, "Orangtua kamu ini nggak kaya, nggak mampu ngasih kamu duit banyak. Tapi kami akan berusaha semaksimal mungkin untuk memberi kamu pendidikan terbaik yang kamu bisa dapatkan. Buku salah satunya. Jadi nggak boleh pelit." Betul, nilai kehidupan tersebut ...
