I'm trying to figure out where I want to put my blog. I tried multiply (http://ashish100.multiply.com/) but I don't like that I can't just upload flickr (www.flickr.com) pics as I want, one by one. So I think for now, I'll blog here and see how it goes.

For ease, I'm just gonna copy today's blog from multiply...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so yesterday i was looking at mel's blog and thought i wouldn't mind a blog of my own... i basically plan to upload pictures and make this a picture based blog of my doings, thoughts and ideas...

the weekend has been reasonable. i've had to duck out for bits as the real estate agent has been showing people around my apartment. i hope it get sold soon, so i can stop paying rent and move my stuff to melbourne!

i'll be working at st vincent's so i plan to rent an apartment nearby, within walking or tram/train distance.

what else did I do? today I met up with nazreen for lunch; yesterday I met rajan in the city and we checked out cameras for a trip we're making soon to china and japan, mainly looking at SLRs (Canon EOS 350D and the Olympus E-300) but also the Canon Powershot S2 IS. I think at this stage the Canon S2 would be right for me, to learn the basics of using a camera and settings... and then at some point I will get a SLR.

I kinda like taking pictures and trying to get across a feeling or idea that you have, and I equally enjoy interpreting other people's work. Flickr (www.flickr.com) is great for that.

Oh I also got a travel guide to China yesterday, and still have no idea who I gave my Japan stuff to.

Oh and I saw Salaam Namaste yesterday at Hoyts. It was shot in Melbourne, and I kinda liked the way they showed off my city. I generally watch a bollywood movie a year, or maybe 2...

Now I'll see what pics I can post up here


I guess I forgot to add that on friday night I went to the new hindu temple in perth... I don't normally go to hindu temples, but I went with tina+raj to see how it is.... I found it much more agreeable than the old pizza-hut style temple and I've added a few pics of the statues and carvings over at flickr...

cheers for now, ash
