eC's Chillout Lounge

Almost a week has past since I arrived here. Sydney has been treating me quite well so far. People have been friendly and I've not detected any racism yet. This place is simply too cosmopolitan!

Reflection.

That's the main theme for today's shoot. It's been a while since I really sat down and reflect on what I really want in life.

Do I want to work and climb the corporate ladder? Or do I want a balance life, a better quality of life?

Another perspective of reflection will be its literal meaning. Are we having such a fast pace life that we have not really observed on the things happening around us? How you view these things will reflect how important you feel about these things.

I was on the lookout not to just shoot things like it is, but as a reflection off something. It was pretty fun.



This is Market City, a pretty large mall located near Chinatown. I took this off a reflection of a building opposite.



Paddy's Market only opened during Fridays and weekends at the basement of Market City. Most of the store owners are Asian. You can still find some Aussies selling sweet tangerines for $1.50 per kilo and a few Turks selling kebabs.

You can find groceries, cheap t shirts, socks, souvenirs and electronic stuff in there. It occurred to me only Asians venture into this low price, low quality business here. The Australians mostly owned shops and sell slightly higher premium stuff.

Is this the only way to survive? By undercutting price? We seemed to be very good at that.



Do we mind getting both my hands dirty to get things done? Even if it was out of our scope?



Is life a walk in the park? Or it has always been a rat race? We run so fast, but don't know where we're heading.



Are we still looking back at our past accomplishment? Or are we not satisfied and aiming for our next big goal?



Can rocks float on clouds? Are always under circumstances or an overcomer? Can we turn our stumbling block into a stepping block?

Attitude determines your altitude.



Angel's wings. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. It's time to fly!
