And thus, it is done. I have met up with the last of my friends here in Malaysia. The last meet up was Aaron and Irene (and by some odd coincidence, I invited two Aarons and two Irenes yesterday, but only one pair managed to make it).
With that over, I’m moving to Australia. Period. In [...]

I’m kinda disappointed in myself. I got the raw footage from Edmund, and lots of it were unusable. He had so kindly pointed out a lot of eye-level errors that I made (nothing could be done to fix that!!!!!!) and a lot of noisy footage (especially on the last day of shoot, lighting goes haywire)
