Change.

16:52

Change. A 6 letters word that currently has a very strong meaning and rather sensitive to me. To become different. To become something else. To make someone or something different. That’s what the dictionary had told me what change is. Should I fear it or embrace it?

All my life I’ve been living a very monotonous life. I woke up everyday, get ready to school, got back home at around 6 then, locked myself inside of my room doing what they say normal generation z would do (doing homeworks, sitting in front of their computers, surf the internet, and whatnots). I lived in a small industrious island in a third-world country and didn’t have a life besides school. I kept on mumbling on how suck my life was and how fucked up the world is. These pissed me off. But do you know what pissed me off more? The fact that all I do are just mumbling and expecting someone else to change the fact that this world is a mess. I’ve always hated listening to other people complaining and there was this one night when I realised that I’m no different than those people whom I despise. I complained a lot. I demanded a lot. And I didn’t do anything about it. This is when I realised that I needed a change. I need to change.

On late September, I had a talk with my dad about my future education. We basically talked about uni requirements and stuffs like that. Then, on early October my dad asked me, “do you want to move to Singapore next month?” and without any doubt, I said yes. I could’ve answered it with a no and go on continue living my boring life but, nope. I said yes that I am willing to move, and yes, I am up for a new adventure. Or let's just say experience.

I moved to Singapore on Monday, 2 November 2015. Today has marked a month since I moved in here, and to be honest I hadn't really do much. But whenever I went out I always made sure that my camera (my sister's camera actually) was always with me and I always tried to record the moments. Basically whatever things that were happening and also to improve my skillz on photography. I know this isn't really a big deal but at least I tried to be more productive and didn't spend my entire free time(s) for being idle.

These are some picts that I took since my move.






























picts taken by:
- (mostly) samsung nx3000
- apple iPhone 5
- apple iPhone 6 


Today, has marked a month since I left the island where I was born and raised in and moved to another sunny island. As I've mentioned above, I want to be more productive and creative, basically more useful (couldn't find the right word). I've always enjoyed playing around with cameras, watching vlogs on youtube, and documenting moments. I've watched a lot of vlogs lately, mostly by Casey Neistat, Ben Brown, and lately I've been enjoying Adrian Bliss' #Vlogvember. So, I thought why not make my own vlog?

I didn't go out much, to be honest. I spent most of my free times being idle (gosh). So, whenever I had the chance to go out I always tried to film almost everything. So yeah, here's a video (or vlog?) of me walking around Orchard Rd being all touristy and doing grocery during my first month in Singapore!




I apologise for the quality and the boring stuffs that I poured into it and for not doing my best. But, in honour of the ~monthversarry~ of me moving out of the hellhole, I feel the need to celebrate it and that's by uploading this video! And I hope this will motivates me to produce FARRRR way better content in the future. 

Love,

Nurra
