but it's not possible to have it all.

where do you start compromising?

or do you? at all?

Toronto, 2009

Sandhy Sondoro

I lurrrrve things like that. It surprises. It's beautiful. It's stunning. Talent comes in all shapes, sizes, age, and gender.

I just cannot stop listening to his voice.... let me sink in it..sink in it...sink in it :)

a few of my favourite photos of UWO

The best thing about visiting somewhere new is you never know what you would find. University of Western Ontario is way smaller than the University of Toronto. It is about the size of King's College Circle. Basically one round, and you are done! But the buildings are a whole different story. I still remember the awe I felt when I first visited Knox College when I went to UT for the first time. I felt that exact awe when I saw the interior of UWO buildings. The fact that there's barely any students around make shooting so much easier. I wanted to see the buildings, just the buildings alone. The sunlight was shining through the windows in exactly that perfect angle to give everything it touches a shiny and warm glow. Strange enough I didn't manage to come across the Science departments. The buildings I visited were mainly for the Arts. Maybe that's why they have that glow?

June 9th, 2009. That castle tower reminds strongly of University College at the University of Toronto. Does every University in Ontario has that?

June 9th, 2009. Love the details on the door. Love the lighting. Love the shapes.



June 9th, 2009. Yes, it's heavily photoshopped.

June 9th, 2009. This was the sight that greeted me when I walked in. I was awestruck. It was breathtaking. The only thing lacking in this photo is a bride in a white elegant gown walking down the stairs gracefully. Ah...I wish I'm a wedding photographer.



June 9th, 2009. Like I said, the sun was shining at that perfect angle. Love the window panes. Love the stairs. Love the whole composition. I love the smell too. It was not mouldy smell that I would usually associate with a century old building. It was that distinctively nostalgic smell that brings back memories. Memories that I didn't remember. Memories of Belgium. Memories of Year 1. Memories of those good old years.



June 9th, 2009. This auditorium....was............spectacular. Look at those window panes. UT didn't have that!!!!

June 9th, 2009. This reminded me a bit of Gerstein Library. But....Gerstein has much better tables, chairs, and table lamps :P

London just got a lot more fun :)

Hope you has fun looking at these photos. Hopefully as much fun as I had taking them :D

cheers~~

Sometimes, the focus should not just be the future. You should know your present too.

It shouldn't just be the things in front of you, but those beside you as well.

Winter...brrr...

Do you know where that leads to?

in the car.

I cann't drive with high heels. So I always take my heels off when I drive. Thought it was a perfect photo op :)

Cafe Au Lait?

2008.

It's a 2008 photo.
Living at home makes me miss everything about living downtown.
I miss that little cafe I used to spend the whole afternoon in, trying hard to survive on caffeine, and surrounding myself with that aromatic coffee smell.
