bubbles in a magazine

a couple of forum friends of mine broke the news about something that have excited me the same way something similar did about 15 years ago...

click to continue:

that exciting proudest moment was winning the first prize in the Dewan Pelajar's 25th anniversary (or was it 30? i cant recall properly) coloring contest... hahahah! well, actually no big deal right? ;)

so the latest equivalent was to have been enlightened that my picture has been featured in the Digital Camera Magazine Malaysia Edition for the month of October.






this picture of this pasar malam guy who played a toy bubble gun...



to feed your curiosity just in case, the picture was snapped at Batu Feringghi pasar malam (night market), Penang. i believe the night market should be quite famous to foreigners for all the right reasons. yes, i said "right". here are a few more pics of that encounter that may interest you...





the entire photo album can be viewed at my flickr set

well i do hope this will be a start of more wonderful things to come, things far greater than this. wish me luck. in the end it dawns to me that, its not me who was featured. it was him... that toy seller guy :) i seriously will pay him a visit to pass him a copy of the mag and buy a few of those guns... who wants to play with me? ;)

ps: i just got another good news. huahuahua. to be revealed later ;)
