Look at that time! Eight in the morning. I finally did it. I manged to get some sleep last night, and I feel so much better this morning. I’m not sure why I slept better, but it was definitely partially because Natalia brought in a brand new set of pillows, and Room 4 got …

In keeping with the sleeping and dream theme of yesterday’s “entry”, I should start by saying that I slept okay. I didn’t sleep as well as that first night with my new pillow, but I got some good sleep, and at least I don’t feel exhausted.
It’s interesting that I use clues to figure out …

In this video, I talk about all the shopping I’ve been doing since I flew from Mandalay to Kuala Lumpur. I’d had my eye on a very special microphone for a while now, and I finally bought one. I talk about that and show what it can do. It’s very exciting.
I also bought a new and quite special cage for my GoPro. This new cage …

I dreamed like a crazed person last night, but I won’t bother writing down all their stories. My favorite, though, was a dream in which I somehow got into a conflict with a bunch of almost feral children hanging out outside a window of the apartment or hotel where I was living. I had …

Yesterday was another very interesting day. It began with the realization that I had the power of Reddit at my command. I couldn’t find answers to my questions about the Rode Wireless Go online, but I could simply post my questions on Reddit. And I did, and I got all kinds of interesting answers. …

The other day, a subscriber treated me to a delicious lunch of nyonya cuisine at the well-known Old China Cafe on Jalan Balai Polis in Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown. Afterwards, she took me to a special laneway that has been open since April 11 of 2019. This laneway is part of Bai Chuan Management’s Kwai Chai Hong project, which involves restoring this historic laneway as well …

Yesterday was a big day as far as camera gear and vlogging are concerned. For thing, I broke out the big gun: the Panasonic G85. And I found that it had been so long since I’d used it, I had no idea what I was doing. The last time I used it, I had …

Something woke me up early again. I don’t know what. And I almost went back to sleep, but I felt somewhat rested, and when I had trouble getting back to sleep, I decided to just get up. I went to bed at 10 p.m. last night, and I fell asleep quite quickly, so I …
