i'm happy when you're happy

all these while, one of my main reasons i shoot is to make people happy.

i stumbled upon this video and  it really shows my reason to snap.

i like to see smiles on the many faces i meet.

this is why i love taking photos :)

Jade

can't wait to kick some ass!

During your travels it’s important to always keep one thing in mind.
When one thing ends, something else begins.

Sweet talkers are nothing but pure crappers!

You'll not like them but you may fall for their shit half way through.

And when you are over with all that,
you'll be laughing your ass out of your own foolishness.
Oh, wait! No..No..
It's not your foolishness, but their lameness which they claim as their forte.

God bless, sweet talkers!

the art of inspiration

Music inspires the photos we take.

changes happen for a reason

I believe that everything happens for a reason.

People change so that you can learn to let go.

Things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right.

You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself,

and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

— Marilyn Monroe

I believe that everything happens for a reason.

everytime when i stumble upon this phrase 'everything happens for a reason',

i remembered Mr Makihiko Kumekawa  told me this.

and oh yea, i've got a post in 2008 on this.
(lol..that's me! i tend to repeat myself! XP )

People change so that you can learn to let go.

a leopard never changes its spots?

OR

Gandhi's "You must be the change you wish to see in the world"?

so, do people actually change?

that's for me to know and for you to find out! 

Things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right.

take people you are close with the most for example.

do you think you take him/her for granted?

you can make time for your other friends and all, but what happens to our dearest?hmm..

appreciate them, please.

You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself,

i've believed in lies.

i've believed in everyone i've faced

- the good, the bad, or god knows who's the good or the bad

i've believed in all of them.

but i've learn.

today, i believe in myself.

and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

perhaps.

But if everything happens for a reason, then what's the reason when nothing's happening?

With love,

Jade

Can we all bring it back to life?

first...
close your eyes, play the video and just listen to the music.
can you sense the breeze?
or taste the freshness?

now watch it.



the intensity.
can we all bring it back to life?

With love,
Jade

cease the KID moment in you!

do the things that make you happy.
take time to enjoy the small things.
create a kid moment.
don’t take things for granted.
appreciate them as if you are seeing them for the first time.
do something fun.
do something silly.

they become the heroes of your little stories.
find the kid in you! :)

With love,
Jade

Heartbreaker!

Hey!
What ya wanna do about this thing?
Be careful with that game you're trying to bring
I'm trying so hard just to ignore
But all of my thought just seem to form
Around you

And the subtle tease you start to sling
Like "I don't care about the songs you sing"
And now I can't take this any more
But I've never seen your type before

Heartbreaker, it just feels like something's going on
(x2)

Baby!
I'm not like the other guys you see
You need to handle me so gent-a-ly
I'm putting heart out on the line
To see if the same thing's on your mind

Heartbreaker, it just feels like something's going on
(x2)

Heartbreaker!

Heartbreaker, it just feels like something's going on
(x2)

Broke my heart
You broke my mind
Girl you done broke me time and time
You broke my name
You broke my will
And I can't believe I love you still

Can't go back
Can't move on
Anything other girl, oh please don't come
Don't know what to do
Can't get over you

Heartbreaker!
