A Terrible Lesson Over Punctuality

It has been a while since last I manage to steal some office time and bandwidth to post here. But believe me that the abstinence is killing me.

So in this post I felt the urge to tell you an episode that I learned the hard way. About discipline and punctuality.

I went to Bandung to get a chance to shoot Aura Kasih live on stage, in the Miss Celebrity 2008 event, hosted by SCTV and Ciwalk.

Now, if I'm discipline and punctual, I should be able to shot lots of frames of Aura Kasih performing on stage. But because my own stupidity and inappropriate politeness, all I manage was 14 frames of her and not even a single one can be of any worth!

Because I can't be punctual (and leave anybody who disrespect the term), my 400km journey worth crap. I want to kick my ass and beat the hell out of that stupid guy who called himself "professional photographer". No wonder he suck. His photography must be lousy too. It showed in his attitude. I'm about to launch myself on a series of trash talking here, but thought better of it.

Now, lesson learned. If anybody, even my close friend, asked me to join on a photo hunting, he/she must be punctual. He/she must prepared to travel on schedule.



Or else, I would have just leave him/her out.

Sigh, all the time, energy, and money spent on this previous weekend...

Wasted.
