Preparing stage of a photobook

Last Aug, I bought my first groupon voucher for a photobook and it's going to expire in March! Talk about procrastination!

I had been busy, as we all know, but still, it's all convenient excuses. The company sent me a reminder email and oh-shiats! I have less than a month to complete it now. Gah!

Having no idea what theme to put into the book at first, so I started looking at my archives of photos, right from the time korkor was born. There wasn't much digital prints that time, since digital cameras weren't so in yet. As I was reminiscing those old times, I find myself smiling from ear to ear.

There are some shots of myself where I think "eh, I looked quite sock also wor" (special angles la, some of them I looked so haggard and downright mm-kin-tuck-yan) and some "look at my forearm! soooo skinny meh??!!) . And then, of course, the cute faces when they were toddlers, oh yeah, I have so beautiful and cutesy kids, where did those genes come from??!! Some videos of little meimei babbling, how I wish I could go back to that time! Priceless! And then I regretted not taking more videos of the 3 of them.

I wonder, if I had been a happier person before, cause the photos looked like I really was. It shone in my glowing face. Or is it because I had selectively forgotten the sad and bitter part of the yesterdays?

Better get back to my project now, time is running out!
