Headaching whole day.. finally getting to rest. Room’s a little more packed than when it started out today too.. good good..

I always wanted to pick up some orginal Rollei Accessories for my dad’s camera but have never been able to find them. Yesterday I saw an ad for some so I met up this morning (jurong east at 7am..) and pick up 2. I actually wanted the even older ones but these would do for now.. After 100 MCQs this afternoon my brain is still pretty wasted so I’ve been relaxing for quite a while doing brainless things. Did a product shoot for these 2 things. Just a plain white background. Think I should get some nice flexible white card to do more of this in future.
