It has been quite a mundane day.
i went to church in da morning.. Programme was worship den fun nn games. I passed the mustard seed express draft to pastor Razo... Hope to get it back asap so I can send it for publishing... :) The newsletter's way behind schedule! :( After YF there was exco meeting regarding the end of year camp... yupp. I'm one of the vice camp commmandants... :)Big responsibility... I must jia you...
After all that I went to harbourfront wif my parents to haf lunch. Subway! LOL... Honey Oat bread with ham,cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers! OH btw i HATE onions! After all that eating we popped over to labrador park whereI snapped more photos... HAHA. Phototaking is fun.
I feel inspiration for making a blog entry for NHDS blog. Blogging for me is a careful process. I must not offend anyone with words... Offending with pictures is not as powerful as offending with words! lol. The tagboards speak for themselves...
Tomoro is a holidae! :) I miss T102 lerrr! LOL... :(
What is marketing to me? (an anology)
A piece of plain bread
1) Signifies the bland taste of marketing without mass communications
2) The various mediums of mass communications bring ‘taste’ to marketing just like bringing taste to the bread, making it more attractive to the masses. (Various mediums are represented by the wide range of spreads that can spice up the taste of the plain bread.) For example, the radio can bring about greater interest of the masses as it carries attractive advertisements for various companies. In order to satisfy the needs of the masses, new spreads have to be come up with as time passes by. New forms of medium ensure the effectiveness of marketing.
3) Each different type of medium can be catered to a wide arena of target audiences.
4) The way bread is made and presented to consumers can also signify the importance of creativity and innovation needed in marketing. (Breadtalk, four leaves etc)
5) Marketing is ever changing and strategies have to be updated regularly. A piece of toast, when not eaten within a specified amount of time, turns moldy.
6) The baker does surveys to figure out what type of bread consumers prefer.
(Honey Oat, Italian, wholemeal etc.) In the case of marketing, research on what consumers want is carried out to cater to the needs of the masses.
7) The “profits” or fruits of labour are simply represented by the nutrition gained by the consumers of bread and the monetary gains made by the baker. In the case of marketing, monetary gains are made to a large extent.

Some of you would prefer me to be like my old self. Quiet and reserved. I guess I still am that way, Except that theres another side of me that is revealed more often nowadays thanks to more exposure. :) If u all notice that I've become more outspoken, its cos I need to be this wae. Mass communications means I cant keep quiet no more. :) Anyway, lessons haf been fun and great... I'm loving my lessons! Photo blog updated once more. And people! LOOK OUT FOR TOMORO'S 5zoubao!

WHAT A DAY!
I woke up at 7am and washed up quickly... I expected a long day! Yar my dad fetched me to Toa Payoh MRt... Met up wif Darwis who was ultra early... :) That was at 8am... After waiting for about an hour, everyone arrived and we proceeded to the HDB Hub above to take photos of people holding hands...
Most people wun like to have their photos taken by photographers candidly. It was a tough job. Some people siam, some people give a disgusting n fierce stare, some walk up n confront us, some just pose nicely...
Most of the people whom i encountered just continued walking naturally. I met one family den the father bu shuang tt i took his wife's pic... SO he walk up to me n said fiercely," WHY U take my wife photo? " Not as if i want to use it for some illegal means lar... so i simply said,"SPH" Den he said " ORH" and walked off happily... I was like, wth?
Anyway, after taking lotsa photos, we went back to baoguan for a short basic photography lesson wif da seniors... Yepp. Got some confusion about aperture... depth of field n stuff...
There was den a talk conducted by 4 photographers of SPH.... Yar quite enriching lar... :)
Everything ended at abot 6pm n i took a train to west mall where i suddenly saw excellent shots for the theme. I whipped out my camera n shoot shoot shoot. Den the STOOPID security guard came along n say cannot shoot inside the centre... N made me delete all photos shot in the centre... HAIX WTH! Waste shutter. Nvm. Walked home merrily n I'm blogging now! :)
