Je suis désole... Je vous mettrai à jour avec tout!

Sorry you guys. I have not been blogging for a while. Too busy with school work, right guys? Anyways, here is some update in the meetings from the past week...

Minutes 21/4/10

• BAKE SALE WAS A SUCCESS!!! We were able to raise enough money for the flickr account, and also for the blind children.
• We decided that we will gather all of the money to help blind children, BY THE END OF THE YEAR! We would give them a larger amount of KA-CHING so they could be satisfied.
• Settled our slogan, "If we can't see, why not help those who can't."
• Exhibition theme: COLORS
• Orphanage pictures: Bring a USB to Billy and he will give you all of the pic (Thanks Howard)
• NEW CAMERA: Canon digital IXUS 130!! (150~250 USD)
• People taking pics for Oliver: Hai Dang, Ngan, Natasha and Minh
• We had a debate about school file photo, or online.. WE DECIDED ONLINE :)
• More exhibition info:

1. 4 different categories: vivid, black and white, vintage, and photoshopped.
2. Half of the bake sale money goes to FLICKm the other alf goes to printing the picz for the exhibition (thank you J.)

• People who still need their portraits: Hai Dang, Minh, Jamie, Catherine Brown, Natasha, Ngan, Yun Soo, and Jin Won.
• One contributor from our PIC group came up with an... AWESOME IDEA! We should set up a booth @ the exhibition selling customizable things. T-shirt with pic, cups with pics, ruler with pics, etc. It is cheap so we can share half the money into paying for the things, and the other to charity.
• If there is extra money left from the exhibition, it shall go to our own account.
• The same contributor from PIC said we can have free dress day. Theme= Colors. Price 10, 000 VND...

So, if you guys have question, don't be afraid to ask me. My email: billylam@ishcmc.edu.vn

Either Bohemian or Dress In Something Suitable

So you guys must have known the answer to the title for todays's blog. Bohemians!

I'm kidding.. It was dress in whatever you want, but must have one thing in common, all photographer in the picture must hold their camera. The outfit can express who they are. TM is the photoshoot. We will do it privately so no one can make fun of us. It is going to be great! And practice your smiles, some looks really crooked... And the camera lens would not put three extra kilos on you...

So, to those who did not come to the meeting, then there are a few things we need to update on... And please, come to the meeting next time, I don't want to cut you guys out.
