When I was in Sec. 3, they wanted to retain me because I wasn’t doing well. When I told them the reason why I wasn’t doing well was because I couldn’t study at home, they sent me for counselling instead. (Ed: the speaker meant that home wasn’t a conducive place to study in because of disruptive parents.) At counselling, the lady kept on talking; she didn’t even give me a chance to speak. When she’d finished, she told me that whatever had transpired was between me and her. Then she called my mum to go down to the school.
Previously when I was using Panther/Mac OS X v10.3, I had played around with image manipulation programs like GIMP but never had a chance to use Photoshop because I didn’t have the software.
This time round, I’ve discovered the wonders of the program, and boy, is it good. Check out my changed background and t-shirt colour.
From this…
…to this!
There are still some parts that need touching up, but it’s alright, I can do that after lunch. Best of all – I didn’t figure out how to do this through good ol’ trial and error; I used the wisdom of Google to learn instead!
ADDENDUM: The final product here.
Still not very good but not too bad for a first-time effort huh. Well, I’ll get better at this as I go along.
Tan Hong Ming on love.
