Pokemon Black & White arrive in North America March 6

GGness.

Now's the headache, how many modules to take? 5 or 6...

Grades released. Not up to initial expectation, but okok for my expectation after the exams itself. Just wished that my CM1131 could be better, B is really low... like really low since mid terms i did pretty ok. I guess it's the finals, when i went totally blank for the first 3 questions. Damn exam pressure... Next sem must get all above B+ man, since got organic chem, biochem and inorganic chem. Heavy workload heavy dosage. In need of very easy electives now, NO MORE SOUTH ASIAN HISTORY THAT TOOK UP LOTS OF MY REVISION TIME.

Got a table tennis table now. Can play ping pong everyday. SHIOK!

Uni life rocks huh. whoever said that can go and die. No way is uni easier than jc. Bidding is in 1 weeks' time. Then it's all over again. Lectures, labs, exams and emo. LLEELLEE.....

Hamster madness

I've created an album on the hamster in my photobucket :D It's link can be found under 网贴. XD

Going to embark on the journey to LOMA as well. 3 Books to complete as well - Temple, Five Greatest Warriors and Lost Symbol. Tata

Got my 2 robo hamsters - Nibbles and Whiskers. Use lego to make their house but i think i'll make using sticks after they are toilet trained. Still got to buy their bath tub, feeding dish and toilet and nest lol

I just went to the hello singtel shop to get my sim card changed to a micro sim and i saw the world's stupidest creatures. Queuing in front of me were a yalam and a naidni. How bad can that get? The yalam went to the counter lady and asked her if she could print her handphone bill and the naidni wanted to check who is the owner of a handphone number.

Last post was somewhat long ago. Today marks the last day of the exams. I must say that I've studied more than before but the feeling of not performing as up to expectations is even greater. I also made the mistake of spotting questions for the very first paper, which was modern chem. The format of the paper changed, and gg-ness beholds. By the time of the 2nd paper, I haven't overcome the trauma and even read the periodic table wrongly... The only paper I could do with composure was the bio paper, but it's 60 difficult mcqs and even though I finished the paper, it felt as though nothing just happened. There was no question that I was sure I was right, and it was so bad... Then South Asia's religion questions were a mess. I've never heard any of those 3 quotes before... And for today, supposedly the easiest mod but somehow the hardest of all papers. (other than the stats part)

I might finally know how my fishes disappeared without leaving a body behind. In the past 2 days, there were 3 instances of kamikaze. The fish just jumped out of the tank onto the table and then on the floor. One was semi-cooked but still alive. Phew. I got no luck in keeping fishes, never got a chance to see them breed.

Finally got the five greatest warriors and the lost symbol at the popular year end sale. 21st December, so near yet so far.

This is one day late but, this is the moment. All that I've been studying for the past 13 weeks, the stacks of lab reports submitted and the boring lectures.



I'm learning to play this piece. The end of the video describes my current feelings man. MOKSHA!

Another nice song by Kang Kang, 你不愛我. Actually he has many nice songs la haha.



I just realised that my activation energy for studying is quite high. I need to find a catalyst man...

圓夢

Obsessed by this song now man. The lyrics is so nice and kang kang's face makes the story so real lol.

Completed UNS2 yesterday woot. UNS2 is more like a tragic game. Almost every chapter sees the death of great shinobis. *sobs especially itachi and jiraiya.

Nothing much to blog about other than the bad haze that needs to go away. This is a relaxing week :D

Final Fantasy XIV

Now that a true rating is out ffxiv is worth only a 4/10. With tons of problems posted, the only thing worth commending is the slightly better looking graphics. Fortunately i didn't buy the game man, now i don't even know if the ps3 version will release lol. The storyline, graphics, quests and everything are fine when i tried the beta other than the mouselag and limited controls over the character. Well, there goes another series. 4 heroes of light isn't too bad so far, but it's too simple an rpg for modern age gaming man. There's almost no strategy involved.

Pokemon Black & White

For any pokemon fans, pokemon black and white is a must-have. It features totally new pokemon and some new moves. I must say though, that most of the news moves are creative but not practical when used in the battle subway (with a few exception like Butterfly Dance). The pokemon, although new, bears resemblance of previous versions like the leopard with mightyena and raticate with the the meerhog. However, the new pokemon will still look fresh and appeal to its players.

There is a new leveling system, whereby the experience gained is higher when your pokemon's level is closer to the opponent's pokemon. It allows the player to explore more pokemon rather than sticking to only the 6 pokemon that you're holding. In mid-game, you'll be given the mystery egg which will greatly boost experience gain even further, and you'll level roughly every 3-4 hard battles.

The battle tower is replaced by a battle subway. It's just the change in name, however the system is still the same. You earn battle points after winning a consecutive 7 battles. However, now you can choose from the easy railway line or the hard railway line. At the 21st and 49th battle, you'll face the battle master of the railway and earn more battle points. This system should be improved so that there is more end game replayability and development.

End game levels for your pokemon is now higher at level 7x-8x. The 2nd time you face the elite four would be the "official" one, and their pokemon will be at 7x. The intermission level gap after the first faceoff is a huge gap from 48-50 to 7x. After the first elite four faceoff, the wild pokemon and trainers have a sudden level jump to 6x and some grinding will be needed, or you'll be struggling. It is now easier to raise your effort value points to maxed as it's easier to reach lvl 100.

The entire layout and display has changed to a more interactive landscape with seasons, and some vibrating pixels that signifies rare pokemon. The design of the buildings have become more 3-D and a more realistic environment, like moving vehicles and ships. However, it is wasted there are no major battles or events at such places, and it's usually just a long walk alongside the beauty of it.

Overall, pokemon black is worth playing with it's new battle systems (single, double, triple and rotational battles), seasonal changes, underwater ruins, dreamworld and new pokemon moves and outlook.

Next game: Final Fantasy - The 4 heroes of light out today! And i got until October 19 before Naruto ultimate ninja storm 2 is out :D, same day as the release of Lufia - Curse of the Sinistrals

Singapore Public Tranport System

Ok i think i never fail to get pissed by Singapore's Public Transport System. During off peak hours especially, the transport system assumes that nobody is using it. Well is it a joke when the total waiting time of traveling to NUS taking a train followed by bus is longer than the journey? No! At least it isn't for Singapore.

The train waiting time for off peak hours is 7-9 min, i've even met with 11 min waiting time. That aside. And i waited for 97, not for the first time, and so i was counting how many other buses passed by, like 10 RWS8 buses, 5 143 buses and even the most erratic 61 had 3 buses passing by. So the holy waiting time for 97 today was 25 min, just 5 min longer than the average waiting time and almost 3 times the indicated waiting time written on the board, given that i am so UNLUCKY i stress to ALWAYS hit the maximum waiting time indicated. WOW! Today is my lucky day i guess, like everyday uhuh while waiting for buses. So my waiting time today was 9+25 min = 34 minutes while my journey was 15+20=35 minutes (excluding walking). Compared to the public transport systems of other developed countries, of course, our efficiency of the public transport is a farcry from countries like Hong Kong and London with train waiting time of 2-3minutes the most.

Liar game - The Final Stage

Bwahahahahah. Very nice movie. Of course, it's of the liar game series. The setting of this movie is at the end of the liar game itself, the last and final game the garden of eden. The ending had a nice explanation of why is there liar game, the question that has been revolving throughout the manga or drama series. But this is far from the truth, liar game has not even ended yet haha, and this is definitely not the final game for the official manga wooooot. Although it has elements of liar game, the tricks in the game are more predictable than the manga. Still, there are many twists that make the movie a MUST WATCH aside from Erika Toda.

I'm gonna choose modules that i'm interested in.

WAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Yesterday was the first day of mid terms. Past week have been a fruitful mugging week with tons of break in between. I realise that continuous mugging is bad for the eyes, and I tend to lose steam more easily. CM1101 paper was doable, but the last question on particle in a box was hard, totally didn't expect it to be tested lol, like what can you study about schrodinger man, and it really came out. I think many people will score full marks for MA1421, compared to CM1101 it's so much easier. But then again i hope he don't mark me down for my graph. Friday is The disaster paper, CM1131, totally 0 confidence in it yet. I need to raise my confidence in the next 2 days to at least 80% man...

Just uploaded 2 new songs to myspace :D. They're not really new songs but newly recorded songs haha. All of me which i played a while already by Jon Schmidt, the start had quite a lot of noise, but the end was ok. I'll re-record it when i have the time. The other song is you raise me up by josh groban, i think it's a very nice song man.

Ah time to put in a little mugging effort before i turn in

I spent the whole of last weekend preparing for my SN1101E presentation. And the last 3 nights doing up my lab report. The entire day of today doing my SN1101E essay and going to spend my whole of tomorrow doing the 2nd lab report.

GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. Im going to die. And after that i still gotta study for midterms and i still have a 3rd lab report outstanding although it's due in week 12, but it's never good to procrastinate.

Theory on writing SN1101E Essay reviews:

Prof picks the best readings to put in the coursepack ----> We don't understand what the readings are talking about ----> We write essays that we ourselves don't know what we are talking about ----> They will become very good readings

500 days of summer

I just watched 500 days of summer. It's really a good romance comedy movie that's very well balanced. The cast is good and the feelings are very real. It made me think upon the little brushes that I've encountered, and I didn't catch them. Kind of feeling regret and remorseful, but I think I'll get better.



So the story goes about a boy who fell in love with a girl, but the girl didn't believe in love. And it was sad in the end that they didn't get together, but went separate, not the usual patch up and perfect ending type of ending. It taught a lot more like this, as the girl eventually found another guy whom she could wake up feeling sure with everyday.

Good quote:
"Did you ever do this, you think back on all the times you've had with someone and you just replay it in your head over and over again and you look for those first signs of trouble?"

FFXIV

Ok after a few minutes of playing i decided to stop playing ffxiv. Oceania just isn't that supported although the server is hosted in Japan, but somehow there's a mouse delay and my com needs much improvement to enjoy the game fully.



Goodbye for now dear character maybe until ps3 version comes out.

Man, this video makes me wanna jam. Freaking nice

I dreamed a dream

Last night i dreamed 5 dreams, and that's why I feel like I haven't slept yet. What's with all the dreams nowadays.

Last night, I dreamed of a friend whom I didn't talk for 3 years. The setting of the dream was last night's liwei's birthday party bistro one zero three and he asked me a simple question that i couldn't answer. It daunted upon me that looking back, it was on a childish notation. I recalled the time when Chee and I were emoing at the beach, he asked me the same question too. And he told me something that really came true.

I also dreamed of you again. But I still didn't go ahead to talk to you. I think I'm traditional but that isn't a bad thing. Males and females have their roles in society, some things should never change. It's all about this semester, you can wait a little longer?

And I had a very weird dream of staying awake the entire time that I was sleeping. And that's probably why I'm so tired now. And yet another long day awaits.

I've been dreaming everyday lately and sleeping almost 10-12 hours daily, BUT still super tired in the day. Probably due to all that dreaming that makes my mind work even when sleeping. And the dreams are reflecting what i think or talked about in the day, freaky. I talked to Ding about inventing a medicine-capsule-sized nuclear bomb so terrorist could swallow it and explode somewhere else without anyone knowing and I was killed by one in a multistorey carpark in the dream that night... And Weiting was saying about meeting up before Zzz Why leaves, and I dreamed of a horrible kbox session but this time Cherie sang like a superstar and Weiting was busy visiting the toilet lol. Can't remember most of the content of the dreams though.

I'm currently preoccupied with Dragon Quest IX. Well, I don't play THAT often of course now that i have tons of readings and work to do and to catch up. Pokemon Black is coming out on 18 September and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 on 19 October. By the time i complete all of them, it's english version of FF14 releasing next March. Still got Yuyu Hakusho, Ride back, Hitman Reborn and Fate Stay Night to finish before starting on the movies. Ah

Timetable is finalised. Bad Monday-Wednesday with a slack Thursday and a normal Friday. And it doesn't help that i end at 6pm everyday except Thursday and i sleep early, how to read up ... I think i need to strike a balance now, like for the past 4 days I only used the computer for entertainment like 1 hour total.

CCA fair is tomorrow. Most probably joining cue sports, but not confirmed yet. I think the point of CCA now is to relax rather than to tire myself out. Once the tutorials start hitting full force next week, I think I'm going to collapse.

Day 1

Travelled 1 1/2 hour to school. My lecture started 20 min late, 30 min break and ended 20 min early. Then travelled 1 1/2 hour back home. GG. At the pace the lecture is going, no point going school liao. But never expect that chem would be go physics-cally and mathematically gay. There's integration, 3-variable functions, exponential decay and differentiation. Lecture over and still don't understand what the chain of equations mean. GG.

Fail

NUS admin is fail. Like how Ding didn't get his freshmen package on time. Like how i didn't get any orientation package/brochures at all. Like how school is starting tomorrow and the lecture notes are not even uploaded yet (although the module description said it would be 1 week in advance).

I secretly think that MA1421 will have the best lecturer. The entire semester's worth of stuff is already up. And there are only like 3 tutorial questions per week hoho! Should i take a 6th module? lols

New beginning

Different phases of life pass so quickly, just like vivid flashes beyond the glimpse of an eye could catch. JC, NS and temp at GE all over in an instant when I look back, I wonder how i survived the mundane nature of NS and GE.

Lectures are starting next Tuesday. Most of the stuff are done, except the studying part. Got my season carpark lot, 2nd hand textbooks and coursepacks, notes in the workbin printed and preparing the files for different modules. All that's left is waiting for the school term to start, the grueling wait.

Peh Ling also told me that i should take a minor, a non-science minor since life in FoS is going to be rather relaxing. I was still harboring the thought that 5 modules is already a lot, but apparently not. Still i think much assimilation has to be done and i'll consider either a maths or financial maths minor in sem 2.

CORS

Bidding for round 1C is over. I wonder if i made a wrong choice to use my P account to get LSM1301, when i can get it in round 2A for 1 point using G account. Left SN1101E to bid tomorrow, for 1 point. Then i can store up my G points haha.

Now the big headache is planning for tutorial bidding; iteration 2. There's so many ways to slot in the classes, but it's just so messy, and the online timetable builder isn't working perfectly. Also, i just realised that the 9-4pm labs are only 3 times per semester, which means that i can actually slot both labs on the same day but different weeks and have thursday and friday very light. Shiok!



been listening to 神目与瞳's songs, very nice especially 守護者 and 崩裂前聲嘶力竭. Both of them are from 星光, and now so successful.

School starting

Was reading hardwarezone and came across some terms for NUS
CORS = Crappy Online Retarded Shit
NUS = No Use Studying
Just planning the timetable for Sem 1 is a big headache. Because i got 2 labs, though no every week, but it's 9am - 4pm on tuesday and friday. So i can't put any lecture slots into Tuesdays and Fridays, walao, and thus all the electives i want to take like management science and music production, I CAN'T TAKe. They are so far away and the lecture slots are right next after my chem lectures... In the end on top of MA1421 CM1101 and CM1131, i'll be taking LSM1301 and GEK1000. Well, LSM1401 is my major/faculty requirement but i have no biology background, so i heard it is good to take a crashcourse LSM1301 on bio, anyway LSM1301 is a semi grade puller and a 1-point bid to get. Anw i decided that im not gonna take any PHYSICS modules, but CM1101 and CM1131 are physic/maths in disguise, bo bian it's essential module.

took medicine time to rest

YOUNHA 《記憶》

Younha feat Goku in the anime Ride Back ending song is sexy. It's known as Kioku, 記憶 or memory, the original song in english. The CD version is even sexier lol.

Uni is starting, you got to stop playing around.

Eternal Sonata

Been selling some PS3 games off for cash. Anyway they're so old (like 2 years back when i bought them) and not really fun; only the newer games have better graphics, well things improve. Not really true for all games though, i got a 1 year old game, eternal sonata through a trade with my Star Ocean 4, and the graphics was so-so. The battle style is so omg-standard X-button-spamming-&-ulti-finish. Even the cutscenes are so waiting to be skipped. Gosh... I can already foresee myself selling it soon. That leaves me with MTS. And i made a breakthrough in MTS. I finally passed the introduction stage! yes it's a big achievement for me lol, <---- fail RTS'er.

Anw there's now this big patch on my back with 28 allergens, and it's so damn itchy. I dno but i might be allergic to everything? Hope not -.- 9 more hours to remove it!

Sometimes i don't wish to face the truth, but the truth will always be there to haunt. I just blog-hopped to my beloved junior's blog and recalled the band incident, and that i didn't really talk about it, was so oblivious to it. Not that i'm racist, over-sensitive, but i realise i don't get along with some types of people. Or perhaps used to not get along with some types of people, i hope i'm not now. But KKH was really an anomaly. I could remember ever since sec school time, flute section was always very small. From Raymond (sec 4 then), sec 3 Dianxiang and arthur, sec 2 me and kkh sec 1 jiawei yishan and sheng heng. Well it's expanding, but there were always conflicts, especially when it came to my year to elect section leader. Ever since i was elected, i felt KKH wanted to be or did not recognise me as SL. Well, i still have my juniors that i loved back then. I remembered i couldn't tolerate his attitude especially during sectionals. During main practice, he would just put up an act, what a hypocrite. During sectionals, he would just do his own stuff and small actions to irritate people (me and jiawei), like slamming files in my face etc. Well, I stepped down as SL and kinda regretted it, cuz subsequently i left and jiawei said it was hell after that. There i didn't dare face the threat, I always gave in... THen in JC once again, i thought god was on my side cuz he didnt join band at the start. When SYF was nearing, he suddenly appeared and joined flute section. That was the worst time and i knew i was going. Well, this time he drove me away, not that i left on my own accord. Jess was SL and i gave her problems by not wanting to sit next to KKH. WELL, to put it, there were me lardy and kkh. So basically, there is a combination for us to be apart, that is lardy in the middle, but no she insisted on lardy kkh and me. GG. It's such a trivial thing yeah but not back then, i didn't want to bring back bad memories. Sigh. So one day in Jan 07 during main practice apparently i had tuning problem and Leng raked up the issue of KKH and me highlighted by YY. He brought me to the podium and asked me (after a build up of events), you can't sit next to KKH? I replied no way will i sit next to him. And after i got tons of insults and got booted. Call it fate or call it luck, now that after NS and working at GE, I've seen much worse. I don't think he'll ever haunt me again.

Today is your lucky day

Mahjong is the new LAN. No, it's on a different league from LAN. I can already picturing myself retiring to China, some suburb district, playing mahjong in the park everyday. Oh my life~

I can't wait for Ninja Storm 2 to be released, like NOW. And also FF14 on the PS3. Ever since i played any games on the tv, no hand-held games can keep me addicted. I've never complete any hand-held games since secondary school. Pretty sad, but as technology advances, your expectations increase. Perhaps, one day game consoles would be touch screen or motion-sensor"ed". So it's September 28 for UNS2 and March 2011 for FF14. For now, I'll just stick to MTS and Naomi. Wootz

I know I've been wanting to write a new song, but as things are of now, busy as I am, trying to digest all the university stuff and reading up books of interest, it'll be hard to start penning lyrics.

Copied from a FF14 pre-game guild recruitment:

[Who we are looking for]

First and foremost, if you are a hardcore, competitive, no-life gamer who plays at the top of the pack, then you have found the right home.

For players who cannot be hardcore due to work/school, we are looking for experienced and quality players who are able to commit to at least a regular raiding schedule (assumed 4 nights a week for 4 hours each or so).

GG

Myspace

Uploaded 心邻 onto myspace. The more i listen to it, the nicer it gets haha. I wanna add more songs so it can become my playlist :D

Eastern Europe

Just came back from a super long holiday in KL and then Mid/Eastern Europe. Took a 13 hour plane ride to Amsterdam and transit another 2 hours to Vienna, tired and shagged but continued with the tour once touched down... visited the shronbrunn palace or how u spell it, that was super hot without air con nor opened windows... and the ground outside was all sand and gravels. What a palace... The only thing nice was the rose garden.



Stopped by Bratislava and then went to Budapest. It's made up of Buda and Pest, whereby Buda is the upper class and Pest is the lower class. Went to the one of the many town squares in Europe and then one of the many churches, St. Matthias Church.





Took a cruise down Danube in a boat that looks a little cui.



Scenic view on the cruise though.



Went through tatra mountains from budapest (hungary) to krakow in poland; full day drive from 8 to 6 lol. Visited Auschwitz and Birkenau concentration camps, where the Jews were bathed and then poison bathed till death.



Town square and church again. And Jagiellonian University. Then my favourite attraction of all, the Wielczka Salt Mine preserved by UNESCO for 800 years. I thought mines were hot, but this mine was at 18 degrees with strong undercurrent winds blowing.

My favourite picture. Of course i scrapped some salt to taste, and it's damn good.



The entire place is salt. Even the floor are salt tiles.



Then it was Prague in Czech. Went to the 1000 year-old Prague Castle, whereby St Vitus Cathedral is inside.

Back



and front



and door



It's too huge to be taken up to down >< and the insides are beautiful. The tinted glass.



And PAINTED glass



Town square again. Charles bridge, made a wish.



Then travelled 2 hours odd to the outskirts, a protected place by UNESCO called Cesky Krumlov, it has a natural meander, studied from geog, that will become an ox-bow lake due to erosion of the river banks in years to come.



Actually the water looks like this HAHA.



They did some stuff to preserve the meander on the bottom right and picture is taken from the castle itself right on top of the hill.



Drove down to Dresden to the next most beautiful place, the Bastei in Saxon Switzerland. It's a karst topography, learned in geog again lol.



Standing on the Bastei bridge built on rocks. Granite rocks eroded by weather, horizontally jointed.



In Berlin thereafter, visited some random buildings. And then the 3% of the Berlin Wall that's left now. Various artists left their works on the wall as to protect the wall from being demolished.



Asians are being discriminated in Europe, and it's so blatant. Ggrrr.

A long time since i blogged. Also a long time since i downloaded anything big. Singnet is so much slower nowadays, frequent screen cannot be displayed page and tons of bandwidth disorders in my house. Downloading is also so slow. What's up with the net anyways.

My fish is pregnant. It has this black gravid spot and should be giving birth soon when i'm not away... great... the fries will most probably be eaten by the existing fishes. Oh well, i'll wait for batch 2 another month down the road.

There'll be a science open house this saturday again. It's quite screwed up of being uncertain how well you'll do, and you can't plan your career path. Most people advise you to plan early but i can't... with all these uncertainties and question marks. sians.

15 days left till end of work! Could say it's a blessing? Although there goes my source of income, not that it's significant compared to when i come out from U, but for now it is. What's the takeaway from the job anyways? The pay? Will employer look at the 5 month job experience? It's like it's just a waste of time now. But at least i know i won't wanna stare at the computer for 9 hours in the office a day as i won't have stamina to use the comp at home anymore.

Also checked out the computer roadshow for uni that happens end july. The notebooks sold are so high end, not really for uni uses. The price are hence also on the high side. Guess i'll fall back to square one, dell. Although this time it's assembled in China, come on what's not nowadays.

Still got 50% of BOI to install. Well nothing much to blog about anyway. Office is becoming stall. Glad that i'm going to 走路 soon. Now i would just stone at the screen sometimes in a daze then snap back to reality trying to recall where i left of. Really unproductive compared to when i first started. Things get mundane once you do it for such a long time. It's like grinding in a game or hunting for a rare drop, but from those you get satisfaction. In office? All you earn yourself is a shitload more of work; a spiraling vortex of depressing emotions. When in NS, only the officers would show appreciation to your work, the warrants would just be nowhere in sight anyway until you make a mistake. Now in the office it's a cold cold world, dog eat dog world, whatever world of politics and arrows. Ok it's done :P

OMG...

I just got my 3 dwarf puffers. Put it into the tank. I turn around to throw the plastic bag and turn back. I only see 1 puffer. OMG... i provided so much hiding places and now i can't even see my fish. They're like 1.5cm and once they swim near the driftwood, it's total camouflage... GRRRRR shld have gotten a GSP instead. And they ain't eating the snails like they should, one of the puffer just got owned by the snail almost as big as it >< WTH! GRRRR.

New Tank

1 more week. to getting my puffer.

Puffer

Just bought a tank for puffer fish. Going to make a ruin landscape with sand. Hope to get a driftwood but if too ex... nvm la.

current tank pics:

Quick Sneak

Can't use the comp for long. Need to give my eyes ample rest. Especially since already using my eyes so much during work.

So we bought fishes, and WT's fish died like within 24hours of purchase. Everything she owns/touches somehow will end up in terrible fate. Her fish was nipped and thorn to pieces by Yingqun's Mango! 加油！Mango! B4 it died, it had only 2 moving fins, left and right. The top fin, fins at the belly and tail fins all nipped till they couldn't even move, cuz there were only holes. So it was only swimming backstroke and doing sunbaths in the separate tank. It RIP after lunch haha. Luckily i brought back the red platy, such a cutie, b4 it becomes the next victim of Mango tonight. Ofc, i replaced the red platy with a guppy representing me, and a black tetra representing ZZZYYY. Of course, WT has disappeared from the face of the earth, as usual, since she belongs to the other team, and the tank is OUR tank. =) Just some quick obs; i think my office have weird ppl since first day of work, male mother, li bai, hamster, dudu, a les and a tomboy. HAHAHA. I think hamster shld make youtube vids out of his facial expressions... ofc the classic hamster, and today he did my catfish eating up my zebra face lol

Orphan

was SLAIN!
Heroes save the day
Credits Roll
New game+

Finally completed Final Fantasy XIII. Took hell lot of many days, was badly interrupted in between but nevertheless done with it. Feel like going into zekkai now. The ending was weaker than the overall progression, but it sets the gamer thinking. I don't really care about the logic lol. Anyway, the boss was way too easy. Maybe it's just a story game i guess but it's all good. Kinda sad Nora didn't get revived. So all that's left is Hope + Lightning pair since the rest are all paired up :P

Should i continue Star Ocean or wait for Friday to GOW III... Hmmz. I'll just relax around tomorrow i guess.

Finishing all the cases soon. I wonder what we'll be doing...

Because of you

Yes.
You.
Fishes.
OMG tiring. Took 2 hours to change the substrate of the fish tank from pebbles to gravels. Washing, scrubbing and cycling.

And i just realised the tank is wayyyyyyyyy too small for 11 fishes. OMG. Now i'm stressed of how to dispose fish to make space for the rest...

-4 zebra danios
-1 albino corydoras catfish
-2 bronze corydoras catfish
-1 mickey mouse platy
-1 black tetra
-2 male guppies

HOW...

生日快樂

生日快樂 我對自己說
蠟燭點了 寂寞亮了
生日快樂 淚也融了
我要謝謝你給的你拿走的一切

PUI

But the song is nice. And it's my 21st birthday today! I had a shock today when i saw jun yu, ding and wan ning at the 9th floor. NOTE* NOT Wei Ting. Because her voice is so loud Cherie's phone was like on loudspeaker mode. I think my whole floor knows it's my birthday today, and she was rushing back to Great Eastern to surprise me. Anyway 我真的很感动，and the presents were very thoughtful.

And, Because of you is so nice. Just so happen YQ thumbed the instrumental version so i recorded it to my piano.

Here's the link: http://www.myspace.com/mechsiao

I'm considering whether to go for LASIK. 说 i not afraid of the complications is 骗人的。 But from what i've read, for my degree, it's quite safe almost above 95%. Then there comes the cost, it ranges from $2.2k to $3.8k. The cheapest using blade to lift the flap, while a little more expensive to use IntraLase. And also, Wavefront technology or normal laser to achieve the correction. It would really be great to do without the troublesome specs, always fogging up and causing indents to the nose, the accumulation of oil causing pimples as well.

Final Fantasy XVIII

Final Fantasy 13 isn't as bad as what the critics say. Although it's linear, but that's only at the start. It really does have a long tutorial though, i don't really know where it ends, but full customisation of the entire party was only available at Chapter 11, which is where I am now haha. Many people complain about Vanille and her irritating voice, but i find Sazh even worse. He keeps asking Hope to grow up but he pouts so much... and imagine a nigga pouting, yes he is a nigga omg. Lightning is badass and hot until the story develops, she starts to become more demure due to Hope's influence and also takes a back seat in her development. Snow is just like Zell from FFVIII just a different outlook. Fang is just like Freya as well, using lance and high jumps. It's so far the best, because of graphics, PS3 game i've encountered other than Oblivion. And also, because of Hope

I wanna dye my hair white! But i just learned that it would only look nice if i bleached my hair too... but no way am i going to bleach my hair la, so there goes my fetish for white hair. After Killua, now another white hair char Hope. White hair is just so nice...

Money Money I need you

Spent probably the most money this week out of my whole life. Went to eat at Joaquim, supposed to go to Kuishin Bo but 我们班最有空的 didn't book la, not that he didn't book, but he booked next week. Woo oooh! Upgraded my bro's fish tank, which is his birthday present from me, to a 25 gallon tank. Now it looks too big for his 4 fishes. I will probably buy more haha, more money down the drain. Bought Star Ocean 4: The last hope, which i havent event started chionging though i bought it this morning... pre-ordered final fantasy 13 that i'll get on Tuesday and non-stop ps3-hogging, unless Star Ocean is really so fun that i wait till it's complete b4 i embark on FF13. Also, went to the most expensive haircut ever at Jean Yip. Luckily i won mahjong hahaha

A parody of 吻别

Very long since i wrote a parody. This parody of 吻别 is dedicated to MGWT ZGWTGEFTW.

original is here:



Ok the parody :

认识你的那一天
我的世界就即将改变
回家也不说再见
去到公司也不过只见见面

你突然改变
完全不像了从前
我闻了你的鞋
有一种说不出来的臭味

这一刹那间 我终于发现
原来WT他是同性恋
他上洗手间 我终于看见
他小便时候鞋子向里面

我的世界开始改变
对于WT的看法和意见
因为他总坐在一旁
看着别的女孩的照片

你看他的脸 其实胖又圆
他走光我假装看不见
你看他的脸 化妆厚又lian
她裙子就像我的窗帘。

No matter what

啊，叮噹太棒了。
唱歌真的不容易，
又让我想起SHE的歌rap哈哈
唱K的牛奶有问题
一肚子风，再加上WT的嗓音
快疯掉了
救命啊！！！！！！！！！

没那么惨啦。但是K变得好贵。。。
同事一个又一个走了，
怎么办？OMG又想起SHE的歌哈哈
SHE要来新加坡但是没有人陪我去
我没有朋友！！！
不是啦哈哈，只是没那么兴奋
不知道为什么
如果是黄小琥或张宇我可能会去吧

我难道老成这样了吗？

Vitamin C

I just read up on vitamin C and realised how little vitamin C a person needs a day lol. Those vitamin C health supplements are just overdosing our body. A normal male adult only needs 90 mg of vitamin C a day, which by just eating an orange or a kiwi fruit will suffice. Those health supplements come in huge amounts like 500-1000mg and some even eat 2 tablets... like wth. Most people will associate "heatyness" and falling sick easily to vitamin C. Also, eating more fruits make you shit haha. That's the side effect of having too much vitamin C in the body for it to handle. So, actually, eating more fruits and vitamin C tablets just merely cause the excess vitamin C to pass javascript:void(0)out as motion -.-

Water omg

I just realised bai nian a few days can earn more money than my pay, that's how insignificant my pay is ><

Went to uncle kl's hse and got to see this new water testing product. It makes use of electrolysis to see how dirty our water is. Then compare with different water filters, omg, the water we drink is really brown. I thought those water bags you wrap the mouth of the tap turns brown very slowly, but actually cos it's insufficient to filter with just that bag. Just a cup of water, omg tons of Fe 2+ liao.

Conspiracy

Omg. My head is swirling and flooded with tons of ideas, silly or not, whatever. But I'm really glad there are people who think like me; i thought i am weird haha. No anyways, it's about the purpose of life and the idea of souls. Maybe I was inspired by FMA, but i've been thinking since young and that's why i got my childhood dream to be a ********, for those who know, and uncover the truth behind this hypothesis. So, that's the sudden surge in my blood to study forensic science as well, and before going to uni i want to learn as much as possible, now that i've seen some research being exposed.

Maybe it's in the blood or somewhat, just all my unnecessary ponderings and blankstates, ketsu!, topics of geomancy and divination are starting to entice me. I have believed, will believe and am really happy to believe in it. Yeah and thanks for listening to my warped logic lol.

너 때문에

i just love this song. ahhhhh

心邻

啊！刚提交我第一首歌，歌心邻。
要感谢很棒的鼓手和歌手
这首歌在压力下完成
没有那么理想。
接下来拥有较多的时间
来学习如何录音
来写我要的歌。
题材已定位，
对自己唱歌，
诉说一位失恋女孩的心生。
另外一首就叫做电脑朋友，
讲起一位男生沉迷电脑的过去。
对啦！那就是我啦！哈哈。

最近就只是忙着录歌，
平常做的事必去耽搁。
我回来了！

歇斯底里

压力压力压力
写歌在压力下真难
我的平常心去了哪？
救命啊！

寻觅的双眼

相遇的双眼
看出你的不安
你说抱住我
紧紧的
扶持摇晃
你要坚强
无论如何
我会在你身旁

我们的身体
摇着摇着
摇出了韵律

好浪漫啊。

人

每个人
生活一定有目标
为任何事物而活

有些人
为吃而活
有些人
为爱人而活
有些人
为家人而活
想我
为音乐而活
无法想象没有音乐的世界
如何无意

韵律绕耳
阿
感动
忍不住落泪
热泪盈眶

我真的受伤了

上个拜四开工，以一个星期了。
有时候发闷无比。
了解了爸爸做工是多么辛苦的。
你真了不起！

还没说为何我开始用华文来写部落各。
真感叹我看了星光大道一節，真感动。
真是最精彩的。
很多优秀才华参赛者。潘裕文，林宥嘉。
看到宥嘉的部落各才觉得华文真显得体贴。
也许我也不知不觉在改变。
有时感到寂寞，听音乐，放松。
说道音乐，曾说要录音。
但现在真没空，累累累呀。
也有些灵感创作。
烦恼呀！
不想没有目标。

看着当我们同在一起，真想哭。
逃避不是答案。
我也是犯罪过啦。
真想弥补过错，后悔啊。
我的心开始想你了。
滴下的眼泪也停不住了。
真的。事实。
我垓怎么办？

Harbin and Work

Been a week and half since i came back from Harbin. Didn't blog about it. And actually nothing really interesting to blog about. The trip to Harbin was really tiring, from Dalian up. Nothing much to see until Harbin. And Harbin's really beautiful, rich with Russia's culture and goods too. Pictures do the talking in Harbin, the ice and snow sculptures were magnificent. It took only 1 week to build, which was unbelievable. But, since Harbin's tourism only prosper from December to March, they have to build it fast, and rebuild again the next year. Also learned a lot about their neighbour communist country, a lot of facts that i would never have known, and why there was a little korea in Changchun too.

Today's the first day of work. Kinda hectic. Just settled down after most stuff and it's already 9pm. Working's really tiring. Ah i need a breather, and more long T's .... office wear is really bothersome.
