Pyromania: HISTORical MuSeuM

Moved over to LiveJournal, yay!

2008-09-02T13:27:00.003+08:00

I'm switching from Blogspot and moving over to LiveJournal, yay!

From now, my new LiveJournal will take over this blog's name of Pyromania: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, and carry on in whatever it has been doing. You know, kinda like the Olympic torch-passing? Yeah. :P

I need to change this blog's name to something that reflects its past... Hmmm...

*tries to think of a new name but fails*

Argh. Let's just call it Pyromania: HISTORical MuSeuM. XD

I'm going to move all the blog posts here to LiveJournal one-by-one when I have time. Well, of course. These are all of my precious memories. "Kioku wa watasa nai, subete torimodosu! Kanarazu." XD! (I won't hand over the memories, I'll get them all back! Without fail.)

For all of you who had linked me, please relink to my new LiveJournal:

Aaron = Fucking pang seh kia.

2008-09-01T18:11:00.005+08:00

Aaron = Fucking pang seh kia.

Went to school today for some Sunny Sunny Happiness today. Yay. -.-

Was supposed to meet with Justin at the bus stop at 1am, but he came late lol. Aaron, who had a messed up sense of time, happened to come one hour earlier, so he joined me in my wait for Justin. Justin-kun came, and the three of us went to Block 823A to eat. Since Aaron had finished eating lunch, and I wasn't feeling hungry either, the two of us simply drank drinks while waiting for Justin to eat his lunch.

Just as we are about to head back to TP, it started raining, so Aaron and I had to take out our umbrellas. Justin, however, didn't have the foresight to bring his own umbrella, so I had to share with him. You know, the umbrella in my bag was for my sole wishful thinking of being able to share it with a girl during a rainy day, so such an incidence was totally unexpected. Ah, oh well, it's alright. As Justin said sarcastically, how romantic...

At the bus stop, Aaron saw a bus coming and decided to board it, leaving us alone for some Sunny Sunny Happiness. Yay. Fucking pang seh kia. =.=

Justin and I went to the library first, because we were expecting the others to be late, and also because I wanted to borrow a book to learn something instead of rotting at home during the holidays. I ended up borrowing a Java book, hahaha. We passed by a shelf containing books on learning the Japanese language, and Justin, in his interest, took one of them, lol.

Then we went for some Sunny Sunny Happiness. Yay! Learnt a few combat techniques, including Eight Trigram Palm: Launching Dragon Strike (raises your left hand with your right hand below. Left hand goes down in a semi-circle, while right hand goes up in a semi-circle too. Right hand goes down from behind and strikes the target while the body launches forward) and the Draw-and-Resheath Technique: Spiralling Blade (draws your sword at your left waist in a flash, wrist spins and rotates so sword cuts two full circles, slash horizontally to the right forcefully but smoothly, then wrist spins and rotates in the opposite direction, and sheaths sword smoothly in yet another flash).

Since there were six people there, we got split up into two teams of three, with each one of us picking a role from Haruhi, Nagato or Mikuru. Ugh, I don't get to pick Kyon? しまった。 So ended up, Castillo, Justin and I became a group. Castillo is Haruhi (someone get him a hairband and an armband shouting "LEADER!" please), Justin is Mikuru (we'll need a maid costume, a tray and some cups of tea for this one please ), and me, Nagato (a chair and a book, preferably hardcover, will do please ^^).

So, right, like Castillo, why the hell are you pushing me...?

Justin and I left early, lol, because we are the sort of impatient bastards who can't stand boredom. :D Okay, that applies only for me. XD

:3

君だけを探して… 君だけを想ってる…

2008-08-31T17:13:00.003+08:00

Kimi dake wo sagashite...
Kimi dake wo omotteru...
Lol, I'm done reading all of the hundred and seventy-eight chapters of X before it got discontinued so CLAMP can start working on Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and xxxHolic (note that X stopped publishing in 2003, which is also the same time those two manga started publication lol). -.- Sucks there isn't an ending. Oh well.

The main character is Kamui, who at the beginning was portrayed as such a badass who doesn't hold back against anyone who dares cross him, making him look like an anti-social. Later, he becomes all emotional and looks like such a weakling, and he still hasn't seem to recover from it yet. Oh well. Don't know about him, but if I were him, I'd have swore to kill Fuuma as revenge for Kotori.

My favorite character though, is Sorata, haha. Such a funny chap, and I like it when he flirts around with Arashi. X3 (Arashi is so beautiful, haha, but then I'd always remember Sorata threatening Kurogane in Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE that if he dares to flirt with his wife, he'd kill him ) He was such a cool badass when Arashi went missing though. :3 And oh, and the two girls holding kunai in the picture depicting a badass Sorata are none other than Hien and Souhi, rofl. The same names as the two swords that Clone Syaoran and Kurogane got at Outo. Sad, now you think about it. Hien is being used as a weapon for massacre, all covered in blood, and Souhi was left along with Kurogane's left arm in Celes, and probably got crushed into dust by the closing world.

And Subaru's sister, Hokuto, is so cute, haha. Oh, and she looks rather like Subaru from Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE. Now I think I know why I first thought the vampire was a female the first time I saw him.

Overall, I find the series good and interesting. It's the "you want to read the next chapter after finishing one"-type of manga all along, and because of that, doesn't make you want to stop anytime soon, lol. Ah, I wonder if CLAMP will finish it? Lol. Heard rumours that they may continue X after finishing Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and xxxHolic, but at the rate those two manga are going (three whole weeks of waiting for TRC chapter 198 after 197?? Hello?!?), I'll be expecting their end in 2011. -.-

Oi, freaking AI, how much lumber do you need, to have so many Peasants cutting wood? -.-

All ph43r James' Frost Wyrms and Gargoyles!! XD

夢は終わらせなければ

2008-08-30T10:22:00.004+08:00

夢は終わらせなければ，未来へ進む為に。
Yume wa owarase nakereba, mirai e susumu tame ni.
The dream has to end, so that we can move towards the future.

Heh, I dreamt of a sweet and gorgeous Snow White yesterday night. Ah, she's so cute... :3 Marry me~~!!

XP

Lol, this is the third and last of the three Warcraft III games with James and Stip that I'm going to blog about (as of now, anyway :P). This one is a 2-on-2-on-2 game, with James (Undead) and I (Orc) in one team, Stip (Night Elf) and Pink Normal AI (Undead) in the second, and Yellow Normal AI (Orc) and Orange Normal AI (Night Elf) in the second. James and my plan were to first wipe out one of the Normal AI in the third team, then wipe out Stip's ally, then the second Normal AI in the third team, and finally wipe Stip out.

James and I, after creeping, saw that Yellow was expanding and immediately went to destroy it.

Yellow's army came, so our two armies went to have a face-off against it. Meanwhile, one of Yellow's peon sneaked past us and tried to build yet another Great Hall, rofl.

We destroyed Yellow's expansion again, and decided to push the battle onto Yellow's main base.

Burrows are annoying against invaders during the early game. XD

Orange-kun came to help out his ally... with one Keeper of the Grove. XD

Destroyed Yellow's expansion with my Raiders. Ensnare for teh win! Now let's see where you are running, little Peons... :P

Stip came and did a surprise attack against my base, forcing my Far Seer and two Grunts to instantly teleport back to my base and leave James with finishing Yellow off.

He tried to hide, but heh, Far Sight will take care of that! :D

Meanwhile, Orange-kun sent his Keeper of the Grove at James again. Ouch. Owned.

After finishing off Yellow, my Raiders went off to hit Orange-kun's expansion.

And after finishing off Orange-kun's expansion, we turned our attentions to Pink's expansion, but heck, both Pink and Stip had large armies that not only drove us out, but surround us and wipe us. D:

We spent some time rebuilding our armies, and then off we went.

On the way, we encountered one of Stip's expansions, so why not? Might as well hit it.

Both Pink and Stip's Archers came and deterred us. Fight on, my warriors!

James sent out his terrifying Frost Wyrms, which made short work out of Stip's two expansions, while his Crypt Fiends and my army take care of Pink's and Stip's armies.

Stip tried to build yet another expansion, but heh, I've got a second force of Raiders and Shamans at my base. :P

James' army of Frost Wyrms and Crypt Fiends went to destroy Pink with my main army. After that, James took his army to defeat Orange-kun, while my second army of Shamans and Raiders destroyed Stip's army. Good game. XD

The great sky that I looked up at grows serene in blue

2008-08-29T11:19:00.006+08:00

Yoshida and I planned to return to Ngee Ann Secondary today because this is the day schools celebrate Teacher's Day, lol. Yoshida came to my house at around 11.30am after leaving his school early, and we went to Tampines Mart first to buy some gift in case a teacher pops up or something. Walked around but couldn't find anything, so the two of us ended up buying a cheap flower for $1.60, rofl. Yoshida said that he isn't giving this to any male teacher, but heh, I was thinking the exact same thing in my mind.

But... do we have any female teachers worth giving this to...?

We went to school and saw Ping Chong, Jovian and Szeling hanging around at the entrance, so Yoshida and I joined them for a while before we got bored and went off. We went to the second floor and saw Larry, Luke and Samuel hanging around outside the staff room, so we went to join them.

Apparently, they just got their testimonials back too, so I borrowed Larry's testimonial and took a look. It says, "Wei-Liang is an outstanding leader and has the ability to command respect from his peers.", or something I like, so I immediately told Larry, "Larry! Command my respect! Now!!" XD!

The five of us, together with Fym and Sean who popped out of nowhere, went to the staff room and the first floor and had a little talk with our Physics teacher last year. After that, Yoshida and I went to hang around outside the general office, where we saw the other guys from our class, like Dao Hsen, Chengkang, Wei Sheng and Xiang Bin.

Yoshida got bored and decided to go all the way to the temporary canteen and check if there are any vending machines there which he can buy drinks from, so I went along with him. Walking through that looooooong pathway, and lol, I noticed that Hiok Joo and Angeline are behind us and following us. XD

Took a photo of the new school building, which is still under construction but near completion, near where the temporary canteen.

After buying our drinks, we went back to the classroom block. There, we realized that they sealed the staircases shut. Oops. I think they must have realized that students can climb up there to avoid the locked gates and enter the classroom block during recess when they are not supposed to, and also leave the classroom block by jumping out of there. Yeah, I admit, I was one of those people. :D

And now, bloody hell, it resembles a prison. Sigh... School is but a prison which everyone has or had stayed in before.

Went to the classroom where 4R2 used to use a year ago. Hmmm lol, nothing much seems changed, except that they repainted all of the exterior walls, so the colour becomes uniform and doesn't seem so fucking messy. Damn, both doors into the classroom are locked, and we couldn't be bothered with removing the windows and crawling inside just to get in. Took this photo from outside the classroom, LOL.

Somehow it seems just like yesterday that I just stepped into this classroom and complained that I had to study in here again for a second year... XD

We left the classroom block and went back to outside the general office, where we spotted Larry, Luke and Sean talking to the new principal (I even asked Luke who that guy is XD). Yoshida and I left, where we spent a few moment deciding where to go next. He initially wanted to go to Tampines Mall, but later decided on Downtown East, so I called Vernon and Ephraim if they want to come along. Ephraim didn't pick up. Meh. Who cares about Mr. Minute Existence? XP

Took a bus to Downtown East, and just after we alighted at the bus stop, I called Vernon, and when I heard someone picking up the phone, instantly asked, "Bub, where are you?" Turns out Vernon was bathing and his brother, Justin, picked up the phone. ! Lol. Yoshida and I went to the new shopping center there called E!hub. We looked around, saw nothing to our interest, and went to a little corner at the fifth floor where there are benches provided, sit down, and listen to the songs on Yoshida's PSP while waiting for Vernon. XD

Vernon came, and the three of us went, as per Yoshida's suggestion, bowling. While Vernon and I were busy picking which bowling balls to use, Yoshida already went ahead with the control panel, and guess what he input for our names? "Shinigami" for himself (the interface cut it short to "Shiniga" because it was too long, which made Vernon and I laugh and Yoshida go "Oi!! D:" XD), "Hero" for me (oh well...) and "Bub" for Vernon (XD!!), lol!

It been YEARS since I last played bowling, I sucked, haha. Those which I hit 8 or 9 pins are pure tyco, and those which I "clean the drain" (*cough* gutter *cough*) are frequently seen. XD We played two games, and for the first game, Vernon got first, Yoshida second and me third. D: I took a picture of Vernon bowling, hahaha.

Yoshida asked why I didn't take one of him, rofl.
The second game went better for me, though mainly because Vernon cleaned the drain four times in a row, rofl, so I managed to get second while Yoshida did a lot better and got first, heh. Both Yoshida and I think that Vernon is thinking of Tania while playing, hence he kept cleaning the drain, rofl. I think Tania would be happy to know that Vernon is thinking of her. XD

Took a photo of the results of the second game, haha. Vernon asked me why I didn't take one for the first, rofl.

We left the bowling alley at around 3pm and went to McDonald's for lunch. Had a nice chat about anime and manga, haha. After that, we went to the arcade. Hmmm, nothing much to play there, since there isn't House of the Dead 4, lololol. We played various games, including basketball (three of us teamed up and played together lmao), some ghost minigame where we failed at making it let us play two players and ended up taking turns playing single player (-.-), Time Crisis III (both Yoshida and I got killed by the first boss at the same time and got fed up and quit playing xD), Daytona USA (we played on the Expert track, and fuck, I got third place because I accidentally went to a pit stop... Bullshit. -.-), Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3 (couldn't play against each other because Yoshida and Vernon were using the English versions while me the Japanese lmao, so we ended up playing Story mode -.-), and a really fun minigame involving throwing balls at the screen like no tomorrow, rofl.

We then went to KFC for dinner, lol. Didn't buy anything, since I wasn't feeling hungry, but heh, Vernon forgot to change his coleshaw for whipped potatoes, so I ended up eating his coleshaw. Yoshida gave me his too. Rofl. Then went to play pool. As usual, I kept losing, rofl. After that, we went home. Yoshida, being funny, wanted to take a bus to Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, just one bus stop away, before taking a MRT to Tampines. Instead, I pushed him out of the bus stop, and we said goodbye to Vernon and went to walk to Pasir Ris MRT Station together. XD

Aboard the MRT, Yoshida went to sit on those priority seats assigned for the elderly, pregnant and disabled. I asked him, "Oi, you don't know what priority seat means meh?" Then he answered, "I need it. I'm... pregnant." O__________________O!

Rofl. Then I got an idea for taking a photo of him sitting on the priority seat and catching him red-handed, mwahahaha.

But he wanted me to take another one because he didn't pose. That's fine with me, I wanted to take another one too because I didn't focus the camera. XD

Took yet another one because he finds this one "not emo enough", rofl.

Happy liao boh, Yoshida??

Then, lol, the two of us took a photo together. He did some handsign near his neck, but too bad, my camera angle not accurate, rofl.

So take another one lor. :3

We alighted at Tampines MRT Station (where I asked him how it felt to sit down on one of the priority seats for one MRT station), went to Tampines Bus Interchange, and I took bus 291 home, while he took 69.

Kamui

2008-08-28T15:12:00.006+08:00

Kamui:
1) One who represents the majesty of God.
2) One who hunts the majesty of God.
3) One who becomes a freaking vampire and runs around worlds trying to escape from a certain one-eyed hunter. XP

The second of the three memorable games of Warcraft III that I played with James and Stip is yet another 2-on-2, with James (Undead) and I (Orc) teaming up against Stip (Night Elves) and an Insane AI (Human).

Insane made the first offensive move against another player, attacking James' base. Both our armies immediately stopped creeping and went to successfully drive Insane back.

James and I then went to assault Insane's in-progress expansion, but was halted by Insane's huge army.

Stip, with his mass army of Archers, came and aid his ally out.

Stip's Demon Hunter got critically injured, so he immediately teleported back home, bringing his whole troop of Archers along with him.

The attack continued, with James complaining about how fast Insane was climbing up the tech tree. :P

Stip came again, and awwww, my Far Seer got killed. D:

Our attack against Insane's expansion failed, lol, with both of our armies wiped.

James' army was quick rebuilt and ready for action, while mine lacks just my Far Seer. ^^"

And then I was done! :D Teleported to James' base and quickly followed him on the way to Insane's base.

We attempted to assault Insane's main base, and had to engage with Insane's army in battle.

Huge army clash between our armies and Insane's insanely (no pun intended :P) huge army, haha.

We defeated Insane's army and pushed on to attacking his base. The day immediately darkens to night, signifying that a moonstone has been used, and we immediately knew that Stip would come to his Insane ally's aid. After all, the only race, if I am not mistaken, who benefits from nighttime are the, as their name implies, Night Elves. :P

Down with Insane's Arcane Sanctum! For Warchief Thrall!!

Lol, killed three of Insane's Heroes one after another. First the Level 2 Paladin, then the Level 2 Mountain King, and after this screenshot was taken, the Level 4 Archmage. :D

We went on to destroy Insane's expansion, at long last. Victory for the Horde!!

James and I split up, with different offensive operations assigned to each of us. I were to assault Insane's main base and keep Insane busy...

...while James is to assault Insane's new second expansion.

Stip went to get an expansion, but nmaa, too far away to be bothered rofl. Insane poses a more dangerous threat to us, hahaha.

Stip came over and teleported to Insane with his crazy force of Archers, lol, so I immediately took my force and retreat to where I can expect James to reinforce me.

Look at them all running after my troops, rofl.

The counterattack begins.

Fall to the combined might of the Horde and the Scourge!!

Went on to destroy Insane's second expansion, haha.

And our combined forces managed to defeat it, lol.

We then pushed on and went to assault Insane's base, again. XD Seeing that Insane's base is practically undefended, James and I split up, with James seeking to destroy Stip's expansion.

Chain Lightning = line of corpses of Peasants. :D

Ugh, freaking air.

One of James' Crypt Fiends to the rescue!

James, while attacking Stip's expansion, was confronted by a line of Archers, lol.

He retreated by teleporting out, but awwwww, his Obsidian Statue wasn't so lucky, it died the moment his Death Knight teleported away. XD

Heck, Stip sent an Ancient Protector to Insane's base, rofl. My Grunts destroyed it without much effort. :D

James, with whatever his army remains, came back to aid me.

Insane again tried to build yet another Town Hall at the gold mine next to his base, rofl, so James went to hunt it down.

Back to destroying Insane.

Sudden darkness, check. Yup, Stip's on his way.

Why, hello there, Stip! *casts Chain Lightning* Bzzatkaboom!!

Big Bad Voodoo, mwahahaha! I bet Stip, who didn't have any experience with Orcs at all other than playing through that little tutorial in Reign of Chaos, knew what happened and got the hell confused out of him rofl.

Hehheh, wiped off Stip's Hero and his pathetic little army of Archers. :P

Samy Dragonflame commands you, all of you, DIE! *casts Earthquake* XD

Back to destroying Insane. I laugh at how long we took to destroy one bloody little base, haha. That's what happens when you don't bother with Siege. A huge weakness. ^^

Ooooooh, look at what Stip sent! Chimaerae! Lololol!

What's the point of me writing a caption here when you can already tell that the Chimaerae are as good as "owned"? :P

w00t!!

Stip's expansion ran out of gold, so guess what he did? Sent that slowly lumbering Tree of Life towards us! XD

What remains of Insane's base are those useless structures that don't do anything by themselves, lol, so we left Insane alone and decided to pursue Stip.

Met the Tree of Life along the way. "It's a tree, like any other! Cut it down!!" ^^

Stip re-root his Tree of Life - good move, as its armor type will change to "Fortified" and become more resistant to the Normal, Piercing and Hero attacks that James and I are sending it... but not like it will change anything in the long run. :P

We pushed on forward and into Stip's base.

There never has been a better spell to nuke buildings other than Earthquake. :P

Look at that Chimaera Roost! Bright light!! It's blinding my Grunts arrrghhh! O_____O

Stip took his Wisps and ran the hell out. We decided to play along.

Stip's base - finished. All that remains is Insane, lololol. Stip, meanwhile, went ahead to hide all of his Wisps, and wanted us to finish every single one of them. Oh well, here we go!

First one, down.

Second one, down.

The third one tried hiding behind creeps, but with my Raider Ensnaring it, it has no choice but to wait for me to finish all of the creeps first! XD

I used Earthquake to clear off the trees and create a path into the center, where James and I decided to test if our armies are strong enough to kill the creeps there.

Three scary-looking Level 6 Red Drakes, haha.

Big Bad Voodoo!! :D I lost a Shaman to those creeps. Ugh.

We finished off Insane at long last in order to claim victory. Victory is ours!!

Need more sleep, yet can't fall asleep. RAAAGE!

2008-08-27T16:35:00.005+08:00

Lol, I spent the whole night playing Warcraft III with James (Topsummoner) and Patrick (Stip45). Out of the many games we played, three of them were particularly memorable to me.

Images are thumbnails, so feel free to click on them to view the full picture.

One of those games was 2-on-2 battle, with me (Orcs) and James (Undead) teaming up against Stip (Undead) and computer AI (Orcs).

After creeping for a while, and with my army of Grunts and his army of Crypt Fiends ready, we decided to assault the enemy. After easily destroying the Great Hall that the computer AI is trying to build next to a gold mine, the two of us pushed onto his base.

After demolishing Pink's army, we noticed that Stip was creeping, so we went ahead and creepjack him, killing his Death Knight and a bunch of his Ghouls, and proceeded to finish off the rest of the creeps which helped us in wiping Stip's army. :P

I even took that item that the creep dropped and sold it for 200 Gold. :D Hehheh, adding insult to injury. XP

Yeah, no hard feelings indeed, Stip. XD

Pink's army was rebuilt, and he yet again tried to expand by taking over that gold mine. The two of us went to stop his army.

Pink's Shadow Hunter used a Potion of Invulnerability, rendering him unattackable for fifteen seconds, but we surrounded him and slaughtered him the moment his shield goes down. :D

We pushed the assault onto Pink's base, with the resolve to destroy his entire base once and for all so we can concentrate on Stip.

It was pretty easy to destroy Pink's base after we have finished off his army. We didn't meet any significant resistance, and Pink's base wasn't extensively fortified and defended either. Only a few Burrows here and there tried to stop us, but they weren't sufficient against the combined might of the Horde and the Scourge. XP

Stip came at last to his ally's defense. He managed to kill my Far Seer, but did nothing more, as our combined armies focused fire on his Death Knight and forced him to teleport back to his base to retreat. Heh, guess he don't really care about his ally's survival. :P

Demolished the remaining of Pink's base with my Grunts. Pillage for teh win!

Meanwhile, guess what Stip did to his base?

We started preparing for Meat Wagons and Demolishers, but turns out Stip got tired of turtling and decided to assault with his Death Knight and a bunch of woodcutting Ghouls.

Oh, here comes a couple of Crypt Fiends as well.

Both of Stip's and James' Death Knights got killed, lol, but here my Grunts come in an attempt to aid James.

Lok-tar Ogar!! For the Horde! For Durotar!!

Stip started summoning a Boneyard in an attempt to fight us off.

But will he make it in time against us...? :P

Production of Demolishers started mwahahaha.

But lol, looks like James is faster than me at producing his long-ranged siege weapons.

He sent his newly-trained Frost Wyrm, along with three Gargoyles against my land-based melee army, but fear not, as I have with me one of James' Crypt Fiends! :D

Frost Wyrms are nothing as long as you have the anti-air Web.

James and I found a way to backdoor into Stip's base without meeting any significant defenses, by cutting through the trees, so James' Meat Wagons started throwing chunks of diseased corpses at his Boneyard... even though I intend for him to cut down the trees and make a way for our armies to enter. -.-

Stip sent one of his Frost Wyrms and managed to destroy one of James' Meat Wagons, but Frost Wyrms are nothing compared to the power of Web!! :P

My Demolishers came and blasted a fucking hole out of whatever extensive defenses Stip could afford to build up.

While on the other side of Stip's base, James seem to be done destroying Stip's Boneyard, and moved his Crypt Fiends in for an assault. Poor Stip, being attacked from two sides...

If your two opponents bring in siege weapons along with their whole entire armies against your little paltry base, then you can say...

GOOD GAME!
I'll post about the two other games in subsequent blog posts. :)

INCG exam lololol

2008-08-26T16:45:00.004+08:00

Went to school at 1.30pm for the INCG exam. Melvin came on board the bus I was taking to TP two bus stops before TP, lol, so the two of us went to the Sports Hall, the examination venue together. Saw Shi Hui along the way near the Business School's canteen, so the three of us went there together, saw a bunch of our classmates seeing down there trying to study and revise, and went ahead to join them.

The actual exam was an "Ugh, what the hell?" scenario. Those chapters that I studied didn't come out, while those that I failed to study sure came out. Well, hell it IS always like this, right? Damn. -.-

The first question was of the five stages of game development. Hmmm, not bad, not bad. The second question was of computer graphics, asking a bunch of stuff like Frame Buffer, Back Buffer, Alpha Value and the four co-ordinate spaces of World Space, Object Space, Camera Space and Clip Space. Ugh. I wrote on my paper, "Die. D: Wipe time!" ^^

Question three combines several topics together - including AI, which didn't go too bad in my opinions; audio programming, asking for an advantage and disadvantage each of MIDI and digital audio streaming, which I think I screwed up; and the roles of a game development team, which I think I screwed up too after reading the correct answer on the lecture slides.

The fourth question asked about gameplay, which I don't think I did that badly, except for one question which asked what "perceivably fair playing experiences" mean. Ugh, screwed that up. It means "Players shouldn't be doomed from the start through their 'mistakes'." I'm grateful to Google Books for having Game Development Essentials. :P

The last question, which doomed me to oblivion, was about 3D animation, and I didn't even remember studying about it, only remember something here and something there from attending the lecture. Ugh. Wipe time!!

Since Kenny, Aaron and I are going to Tampines Mall together after the exam, I decided to stay in the examination hall and wait for either of them to be done before leaving, since it's so boring to wait alone outside, haha. After quite a while, I saw Kenny walking up to hand his paper, so I did the same and left the examination hall with him.

Few of our classmates were outside the Sports Hall discussing about the horrific disaster that is the INCG exam, so we went ahead and joined him while waiting for Aaron, lol. After quite a while, Aaron came out with Khai Ming, and I was kind of surprised that he came out so early. XP After waiting for another while, Jia Hao came out, and the five of us left.

We took bus 69 to Tampines Bus Interchange, where Khai Ming headed home and the remaining four of us to Tampines Mall. We went to Courts, where I bought a new computer mouse, yay. ^o^ A Logitech optical mouse for $19, but heh, it felt really good to use. XD Jia Hao wanted to buy a new mouse as well, but he didn't have any money, lol.

We went to the arcade to play. I put in $10, Aaron $4 and Kenny $3, but lol, turns out we get an extra $3 if we put in $20, so we got Jia Hao to put in $3 too. XD Aaron first went to play Stacker. He got up to one block above minor prize and died, lol. Oh well, better luck next time. XD

Kenny and I went to play House of the Dead 4, and damn it, he's such a better player than me. ._. And lol, he kept pointing out that I spam bullet. I mean, c'mon! It's a submachine gun! With unlimited ammo! Those who don't spam are letting their money (said money which goes to the arcade for playing games) down!

And damn it, Kenny was so good, we brought down bosses in no time. ._. For the first boss, he told me to hold down the grenade button, so I asked, "Huh?", but did as told. Then he told me to release it. That I did, saw the grenade being thrown, and BAM, the boss died, just like that. I was left wondering, "What the...? ._."

Kind of funny how Jia Hao and Aaron kept making snide comments by the side. "No, that guy looks just like a normal guy! Why did you kill him?! D:" XD!

And yay, for the very first time of my life, I beat through the entire game! ^o^ On several continues, duh. ._. Lol, the ending was kinda weird. James blew himself up along with that annoying last boss (thanks to Jia Hao for teaching me how to counter against his ice-dragon attack so I can beat him XD), and Kate is left kneeling on the floor and asking, "James... what should I do?" XD

At the end of the game, they showed your progress throughout the entire game. One of that they showed are the six grades that you obtained at the end of the six stages. For some reason, I got "CBCBCB". o.O XD!

The four of us went to play a racing game called Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3 against each other. I managed to be in the lead at the start, but then I kept trying to block their way forward instead of concentrating on the road myself, so they ended up overtaking me and I became last. ._. While the three of them were fighting among themselves, I caught up from behind and managed to take the lead again. :D

Just at the last minute before the finishing line, when I was ready to proclaim my victory... Jia Hao came out of nowhere and took my first place, making me second! D: Damn his manual car (compared to my automatic)! DX Jia Hao got first, I got second, Kenny got third and Aaron last, lol. :3

Since Jia Hao won, he was able to play another game. Some guy came and challenged him, and thoroughly thrashed him lmao. He led since the start, and Jia Hao never even managed to catch up with him at all. The game ended with Jia Hao about 300 metres behind him. Awww... I even asked Jia Hao during the game, "Hey, want us to go and disturb him for you?" XD

With little money left, we let Aaron play a game of Stackers before leaving. This time, he even failed to get the minor prize. Lol.

Jia Hao and Aaron headed home for dinner, while Kenny starts to wait for his mother to come for dinner together, so essentially, I became alone lol. ._. Went to McDonald's for dinner, and got Kenny to join me while waiting. XD We went to Popular after I finished my dinner, because I wanted to check for new manga, haha.

Yay, Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE volume 23 is out!! ^o^

Beautiful, beautiful cover! =D
Went home after that. :3

Studying for INCG... or am I?

2008-08-25T12:21:00.003+08:00

Tried to study for the INCG exam but miserably failed and instead spent almost the whole day playing Warcraft III with James (Topsummoner) and Patrick (Stip). XD

Stip was kinda a newbie in Warcraft III, lol, so can't blame him for doing stupid stuff like sending all five starting peasants to construct buildings after buildings without sending any to harvest any resources, or bothering to purchase any upgrade, or heck, James even spotted him without a Lumber Mill! ^_^"

We played in one map, Rolling Hills, a three-on-three battle between us and three Normal AIs. Stip, being a newbie, takes quite some time to get his Hero up and running, lol, so James' Death Knight and my Far Seer went to creep first. After getting near a Creep camp, I summoned my Spirit Wolves, and shit, they got stuck between the mountaineous terrain, the trees, and several skulls intended for decoration purposes! Noooooooooo!

After Stip left, James and I tried a 2-on-2 game using Random races, haha. I got Night Elves and he got Humans, while the enemies got Night Elves and Undead. He went with a Paladin, a Mountain King, Footmen and Knights, while I went with a Priestess of the Moon, a Keeper of the Grove, Archers and Dryads. Kind of stupid in my opinions how Archers use the Strength of the Moon while Dryads use the Strength of the Wild, which I only found out at late game. -.- I mean, oi, don't they both range??

Next time I play Night Elves, I'll use Huntresses and Archers. -.- Maybe James can take care of air units (he's bloody good at spamming Frost Wyrms ) or siege units, hmm...

Got new a blog banner and footer lol, both featuring Clone Syaoran from Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and his excellently-written program of collecting feathers.

In order to retrieve the feathers, I will take anything I need.
I will eliminate anyone who gets in the way.

Don't touch her. I won't hand over the feather,
I'll get them all back. Without fail.

Don't touch her. I won't hand over the feather, I'll get them all back. Without fail.

Was bored, so I went to watch Bleach episode 170 just now. Yeah, I'm behind, but hey, filler... Took this screenshot as well. Guess Ichigo isn't very happy about being only a Shinigami substitute.

Kimi wo mamoru chikara...

In order to retrieve the feathers, I will take anything I need. I will eliminate anyone who gets in the way.

Lol. Went to school today as there is C. Maths exam. Saw Jian Shun on the bus, though we separated after reaching TP, as I was hungry. Headed to the canteen and saw Kuan Wei, so we had breakfast together. Sebastian came along too. Then I headed to the examination venue alone, where some of my classmates are already there, waiting for the exam to start. Nothing to do but join in the wait.

The exam went quite well, I think. I think the only question which will kill me is the SOP and POS. Oh well. Too many Sets question in my opinions. Ugh. And I think I sort of understand the logic for deductive argument. Think I did quite well for that. I'm rather disappointed that there isn't any questions for converting numbers between decimal, hexidecimal and binary systems, but heh, whatever. Not much of truncation, rounding and significant mistakes as well. That's a relief - that's where I often make tiny, careless mistakes. ._.

First to leave the examination venue, mwahahaha. Though I think it's because Qiyang didn't want to be first, and so prefers to wait before someone else leaves first. ._.

And yay, Stip got his Warcraft III, lol. Now he can join me and Topsummoner. XD

Have all units search for Nunnally!

2008-08-21T16:48:00.004+08:00

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 episode 19 wasn't bad at all, heh. Poor Lelouch; first he lost Nunnally, now he got betrayed and stabbed in the back by his very own Order of the Black Knights. And next, Rolo dies trying to save him. Awww, poor Rolo. He was being used as a tool by Lelouch the whole time. :(

Damn C. Maths exam tomorrow. Need to revise. I hate the Sum-of-Products and Product-of-Sums part for Boolean algebra, as well as the deductive argument for Sets. Hate them, ugh. And I'm afraid of forgetting how to convert numbers between the three number systems - decimal, binary and hexadecimal. Fuck. ._.

I swear that tomorrow, I am going to get fucking killed by three things:

Sum-of-Products and Product-of-Sums
Deductive argument for Sets
Forgetting that 1KB is 1024B, and assuming that 1KB is 1000B like I have always done...

Back to revisions. Only came online to procrastinate. XD

Help!! He's gone emo!! D:

COLORS

2008-08-20T12:45:00.002+08:00

The moment that seems to able to change me and even the world
Is always right by my side...

Staring at the irritations that I can't hide and the me who stands completely still
While I'm confused, while I'm troubled, while I'm grieving, I should decide on it
With the one word that you gave me, my confusion vanishes
In my room that seemed empty, light shined

The great sky that I looked up at grows serene in blue
I've decided to open the closed window
The moment that seems to able to change me and even the world
Is always right by my side...

In the insatiable ordinary days, I search for the answer that should exist

If I turn back toward the gentle voice alone in the morning sun

Within the dazzling sunlight, unexpectedly, you smile
The closed window seems to open
The existence that seems to be able to change me and even the world
Is in front of my eyes...

The great sky that I looked up at grows serene in blue
I've decided to open the closed window
Here and now I feel the moment
That seems to be able to change me and even the world…
Reaching out my hands toward the light...

The fragrant wind in the colors of the sky blows through my heart

My heart quakes day and night.

2008-08-19T12:02:00.002+08:00

My heart quakes day and night.
I will become a star and protect you,
For the battle knows no end.

Been playing one of the old RPGs I have on the PlayStation2, namely Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits. I wanna try getting Level 100 on all six of the characters that I will use for the final boss fight (namely Kharg, Darc, Paulette, Maru, Ganz and Tatjana). :3

In my opinions, Kharg looks kind of handsome from certain angles, haha. Here's a picture I took of one of them with my camera. :3

Lol at this picture Justin-kun sent me, titled "Coke Geass".

And just when you think only "Syaoran" goes emo sometimes...

Suzaku does too. =.=

Went to yet another Hungry Ghost Festival banquet yesterday night. When the shark's fin soup was served, I immediately remembered the one I went to with Dan and Mark nine days ago.

Remember when we tried guessing how many bean sprouts there would be, but turns out there isn't even a single one? And why did I guess sixty?

Here is the reason:

PHR33 B43N 5PR0U75 PL0X!!

Yay, I beat Minesweeper on Advanced! XD

Wings of a Dream

2008-08-17T13:34:00.000+08:00

Even like this, the two of us came from faraway
We can't return to your smile
From when you were young back then any more
I love the world in which you laugh
And I want to be by your side, just that
With pains that I started to forget in my chest

Time goes by...
The flow of time changes the two of us
But the things that we've lost and things that we dream of, too
I'll take your hand and remember them
I'm always by your side

Because I want to remember even the sad things
On your map
Please leave a page for me
The wind that blows from the future
You believed in it back then
Tomorrow, soar up higher...

Time goes by...
Even if time passes, I'm sure that unchanging things exist
Because I can't reach them, because I want to find them
I'll go search for the wings of dreams
Please be by my side, forever...

I'll be by your side, forever...

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

2008-08-16T13:39:00.002+08:00

Just started watching Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion yesterday, because I have three people all recommending me to watch it, namely Long-kun, Justin-kun (two weird people who prefer to have a "-kun" stuck behind their name o.O) and Vernon (*gets the urge to stick a "-chan" behind his name, because the other two all have their own Japanese honorifics ).

Must admit, the anime really reminds me of Death Note. One person gains a mysterious power all of a sudden, feels the urge to change the world, and gets someone tagging along with him and following him. Not to forget that both Lelouch and Light are crazy mother fuckers with insane, maniacal laughs but are so freaking intelligent nobody would not be jealous.

Though, I didn't expect to fucking see Gundams in this anime until I started and was like, "What the fuck? Why are there Gundams in there?" And just when I thought this would be a battle using Geasses. -.-

This anime has two protagonists, on different sides of the battle, making it more like Death Note, with Light and L on different sides. Though, kinda ironic, one's a Britannian fighting for Japan, and the other is a Japanese fighting for Britannia.

The first protagonist is Lelouch, whose appearance reminds me of Kamui from Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, and whose character strongly reminds me of Light from Death Note. Which is kinda ironic since both Kamui and Light have the same voice actor - Miyano Mamoru. Kinda funny that Lelouch, though, shares the same voice actor as... Yumichika from Bleach. XD! Watanuki from xxxHolic too, but I don't watch the anime, so meh.

This shot further reminded me of Kamui.

While this one further reminded me of Light whenever he gets outsmarted. XD
The second protagonist is Suzaku, rider of this imbal Gundam named Lancelot. His hairstyle is 85% similar to "Syaoran" from Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, and he shares the same emerald-green eyes as Princess Sakura from Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, so sometimes I wonder if his real father is "Syaoran", and he was simply adopted by the late Prime Minister of Japan. XD

And oi, why the hell are you wearing clothes similar to my Storyboarding character's? Not to forget that I copied his hairstyle from "Syaoran"...

Not to forget he has imbal physical abilities. I mean, dodging a machine gun with a lag time of 0.05 seconds, doing a wall walk, and then fucking kicking it down? Reminded me more of Clone Syaoran ("Syaoran" doesn't do kicks often, gotta admit) and his kicks, rofl.
And seriously, fucking stop it with the Pizza Hut advertisements. Every time I see one, it gives me the urge to go out, buy some Pizza Hut and eat! Rargh...!! Rage!!

Captain Tsubasa - World Youth blabberings

2008-08-15T13:57:00.004+08:00

I thought that since Captain Tsubasa - World Youth is, after all, my fifth favorite manga, I should at least blabber a bit about it after finishing reading it. :P I think I'll talk a bit about the players in the Japanese team, haha.

Forwards:

Hyuuga Kojirou
Nitta Shun
Sorimachi Kazuki

Midfields:

Oozora Tsubasa
Misaki Tarou
Aoi Shingo
Matsuyama Hikaru

Defenders:

Misugi Jun
Akai Tomeya
Makoto Souda
Jitou Hiroshi
Ishizaki Ryo

Goalkeepers:

Wakabayashi Genzou
Wakashimazu Ken

Hyuuga Kojirou: Ah, my favorite character in Captain Tsubasa. XD He is an excellent striker, and easily the best striker in the whole Japanese team, which is itself an offensive team. Not only does he excel in shooting, but he is also above average in tackling (with his Moko Tackle) and dribbling (with his Chokusen Teki Dribble). Definitely the Japan's team ace striker, haha. Shame we have people copying his signature Raijuu Shoot left, right and center (namely Tsubasa, Misaki and Santana). =.=

Some of his more frequently used shoots include Tiger Shoot, Neo Tiger Shoot, Raijuu Shoot, Kourin Raijuu Shoot and Jumping Raijuu Shoot, though, with his epic Raijuu Shoot being copied, I suggest he better go ahead and struggle and try and find a way to upgrade his shoot, and invent a more powerful one. Oh, and I must admit, the Senkou Raijuu Shoot combo with Tsubasa and Misaki was epic and pwnage. XD

Nitta Shun: He is the second striker in the Japan team, and whereas Hyuuga relies on strength in his shoots, Nitta relies on speed. He is able to run a hundred metres in eleven seconds, and his Hayabusa Shoot is also an extremely fast shoot. His soccer techniques may not be as improved as his other team members, but he has a lot of talent, as shown when he managed to master the No Trap Running Volley Hayabusa Shoot within a short amount of time.

In my opinions, he isn't being featured enough, with Hyuuga and Tsubasa taking up most of the spotlight for scoring goals. He ought to be featured a bit more, relying more on his speed to score, and especially since Hyuuga and Tsubasa, two of the Japan team's aces, would often get marked. In other words, just like in the Uruguayan team, when Victorino score goals after Hino gets marked.

Sorimachi Kazuki: A third striker, he's often warming the bench, and only comes on the field when the Japan team needs to score more goals. Nothing much to talk about him, to be honest. I only include him because there are too little strikers in the team, despite the team being an offensive one, hehe. Well, he is good at tricking the enemies that he is going to trap the ball then shoot, when he actually intends to let the ball pass by him and reach Hyuuga or some other guy. Yup, that's mainly all. Work hard!

Oozora Tsubasa: Imbal guy who can copy every single shit he sees. =.= I don't mind if he copies techniques from opponents, but when he even copies the signature technique of his own team's ace striker... Grr...! That pisses me off, seriously. -.- This guy is the Captain of the team (thus the name of the manga, Captain Tsubasa), and is also the very center of the Japanese team tactic, the Japanese zone press. The tactic starts and ends with him, and he receives every pass, and from there, either passes, dribbles and scores. Very versatile, eh? Too bad, can't do no shit without him receiving the ball.

He is excellent in dribbling, passing and shooting, and he neither needs to tackle nor mark (since the defenders behind him do a great job, except for Ishizaki), but he does damn well in them too, all the more making him bloody imbal. Some of his techniques include Drive Shoot, Flying Drive Shoot, Sky Dive Shoot and Sky Wing Shoot. I must admit, his range of shoots make him very versatile, and he could apply them to different situations for different effects. For example, the Flying Drive Shoot flies up and dodges the defenders, then stabs down into the opponent's goal post, while the Sky Wing Shoot is a much stronger shoot that attempts to penetrate the opponent's defense. Sky Dive Shoot? A bloody hilarious attempt to score where he picks up the bloody ball and runs into the opponent's goalpost. Even more hilarious when the entire team picked him up along with the ball, threw him into the bloody goalpost and then all followed him and jumped into that bloody goalpost.

Misaki Tarou: Poor guy, being unable to play in the World Youth cup just because he got his leg ran over by a freaking truck. Oh well, at least he did it to protect his younger sister, plus four respect points for him. For some reason, he is able to read the mind of Tsubasa and does an extremely good job with him in their Golden Combination. If the ball gets taken from under their control, that is the very prompt for readers to go all, "OMFGWTFHSTFUGTFO!" -.-

Generally, he's mainly seen as Tsubasa's Golden Combination, and thus we don't get to see much of his own personal skills and techniques. His dribbling (which is important to midfields, I'd say) is said to be rather artistic, but meh, I forgot his dribbling techniques since he hasn't dribble on his own for so long. XD His Boomerang Shoot is nice, yeah, but hey, hard not to see it as just a ripoff and an improved version of Souda's Kamisori Shoot. I expect we would see much much more of Misaki in Road to 2002.

Aoi Shingo: Ah, Aoi. Must admit, he's got one of the two most pwnage nicknames in the whole series of Captain Tsubasa so far (the other being Akai), the Principe del Sole. He's basically a midfield bugger who runs freaking everywhere. He dribbles like mad through the enemy defenses, he shoots and score goals (though he needs to have his own shoot, heh), he even runs back and helps in the defense. He's basically everywhere, dattebayo.

All of his skills and techniques are above average, although his dribbling, compared to his other skills, are at a higher notch. Watch out when he bloody spams his Chokkaku Feint. He can get through a whole team with that alone and score. Scary. Yeah, all he needs is a specialized shoot on his own. Yeah.

Matsuyama Hikaru: This guy, being a sweeper (a defensive midfield), is basically slapped inbetween the offensive midfields and the defensive defenders, and thus act as a link inbetween them. He helps to defend and intercept the ball when it is under the opponents' control, and helps to attack by passing it forward to the midfields when under their control. He also has decent offensive capabilities, as he used to be an offensive player. His shoot, the Eagle Shoot, is a long shot that tends to stick to the ground.

Misugi Jun: This guy is basically the captain of the defenders - he takes charge and leads Japan's efficient defense. One of his most utilized tactic include the Offside Trap, where everyone runs forward and causes the opponent to get offside. Of course, it doesn't always work often, because Ishizaki will come and screw shit up. XD

Unfortunately, for a defender, he doesn't have any strong individual defensive skills and techniques, as he used to be, like Matsuyama, an offensive player. Also, since he used to be an offensive player, he knows the Drive Shoot, one of the shoots that Tsubasa used to rely so much on, but now has stopped using it after he learned much better shots, such as the Flying Drive Shoot and the Sky Wing Shoot. To be honest, he needs to brush up on his individual defensive techniques. Maybe have Souda or Hyuuga teach him how to tackle or something, those two seem to be the best tacklers in the team. XD Oh, and also, have Tsubasa teach him the Flying Drive Shoot as well. I mean, Drive Shoot? Tch. Well, why not? Japan is an offensive team where even defenders overlap frequently and even have individual, unique shoots of their own. XD

Akai Tomeya: Ah, two things I want to first say about this player. One, he's my favorite Japanese defender after only playing one round in the World Youth cup against Sweden (heck, he's my second favorite character after Hyuuga XD). Two, he has the most epic nickname in the whole series, Kyoufu no Red Stopper. XD

Personally, I feel that he has the best defensive capabilities in the whole entire Japanese team, being able to mark and tackle (two essential skills for a defender) almost perfectly. Who cares if he doesn't have much teamwork with the rest of the defenders because he's new? Kick Ishizaki out already! Japan needs a defender that doesn't overlap every now and then and try to score and claim some glory, but stay and defend Japan's goal with the goalkeeper with all his might!

Makoto Souda: For some reason, early in the story, when he just appeared, he was portrayed as an extremely formidable opponent. He can easily mark Tsubasa and disable most of his play; he has great defensive abilities with his Kamisori Tackle; he can pass to his teammates without opponents intercepting the ball with him Kamisori Pass; and he can even aid in the offense with him Kamisori Shoot and Kamisori Centering.

But now? Bleh. They don't even show him much. All he would do nowadays is to run up, overlap, receive the ball from a midfield, and then pass it to a forward. Yup, that's it. No more of the strength and power he showed in ages past. The author seriously needs to stop neglecting him... ^_^" Oh, and he learnt Kamisori Shoot because he couldn't master the Drive Shoot, right? Please, either have Tsubasa or Misugi teach him the Drive Shoot, or Misaki teach him the Boomerang Shoot. He needs a better shoot than the one he started out with if he wants to be a better offensive player.

Jitou Hiroshi: A gigantic defender who knocks everyone out of his way with his shoulder charge. He likes to overlap and shoot a lot, despite not having any individual, unique shoot of his own. Can't deny his amazing shooting strength though. He used to be very slow, so he used to suck at overlapping, but now he's much better in his speed, haha.

In my opinions, he has a lot to do to improve, since he doesn't seem to have much of any individual techniques of his own. Maybe have Hyuuga teach him shooting to hone his shooting strength so he can be a more efficient at offense, and also have Akai teach him some defensive skills? Oh, and he can do a Skylab Hurricane combination with the Tachibana twins, which is useful, but no point since the Tachibanas don't come out often anyway. XD

Ishizaki Ryo: Useless defender in my opinions. He rarely does anything right, and when he does, someone else can do better. Sure, I must admit, he improves awfully fast, but hey, just give up your seat as a regular player to someone who deserves it more already. He's basically just a defender who only knows how to use his face to block the ball. No skills, no techniques, no nothing. Just his face. I'm hoping to see Akai take his place as a regular player in Road to 2002. \:D/

Wakabayashi Genzou: An imbal goalkeeper, the author basically portrayed him in such a way that he can never ever take in a goal. Which is rather useful, I must admit, but problem is, for some sick reason, he keeps getting his hands injured. I mean, oi, look at Wakashimazu! Does he ever get injured? No! I guess the author needs to keep making him injured so he doesn't get too imbal that the opponents complain. He's basically a fucking wall of steel in front of Japan's goal post.

Wakashimazu Ken: Compared to Wakabayashi, who is a total defensive goalkeeper, he is a rather offensive goalkeeper who learnt a trick or two from Espada of Mexico, that imbal goalkeeper who blocks every single shoot and yet has the time to take the ball, dribble it and rush out for offense. Too bad for him, though, since Japan is an offensive team (with bloody defenders overlapping every now and then), they need a steel wall to guard Japan's goal post so their defenses don't suck too much, so they would always choose to send Wakabayashi instead. Fortunately for him though, Wakabayashi does get injured frequently. Rofl wtf? XD

That's it for my blabberings. :3

Rush for time

2008-08-14T14:57:00.002+08:00

School today is so boring. Just go there, hand up our Storyboarding assignment, and leave. Everyone was rushing to finish their assignment in the last minute, so me, with nothing to do (as I had already finished mine the night before), went to read 666 Satan to kill time, lmao. Kenny and I were the first to hand up ours, then I went to help Aaron crop his images, since he took such a bloody long time and yet kept procrastinating like no tomorrow.

I ended up waiting four hours for Aaron to finish his and pass it up. Ugh. The two of us went to Tampines Mart and eat lunch at McDonald's there.

Short blog post, I know, but heh, nothing much to write. Oh, and hehheh, I'm looking for people to play Warcraft III with.

Tch, how troublesome

2008-08-13T22:21:00.004+08:00

Argh, Storyboarding assignment just takes up so much of my time that I don't even have time to blog, lol. I'm glad there will be a week of holidays next week for us to take a break, slow down on our pace, enjoy a breathe or two, and maybe revise on our studies - before the exam two weeks later. -.-

Oh well, I'm not too worried about the exams at the moment. Instead, I'm more worried about my health. All that pressure and anger from the huge workload of recent assignments, together with my lack of sleep, is bound to take its toll on my health. But I will continue on this path - for it is the very path that I have chosen. Fatigue or not, I will forge on, for this is my story.

Charge!! For Lordaeron!! XD

Now, after that little bit, it's back to my usual daily blogging. ^^ Today's blog post's title comes from the fact that we had to present our WDS websites, and we had to wear "smart casual". Argh, so troublesome. I wore a short-sleeve shirt, all buttoned up and tucked in (*rolls eyes*), with a T-shirt underneath (because it was rather cold when I woke up XD), a pair of cargo pants, and a pair of sports shoes.

The results:

I learnt that shorts give you a much wider range of freedom, and whoever invented sandals is a genius.
My parents got freaked out. I think both of them are already used to be wearing sloppy T-shirts, shorts and sandals.

Two hours of WDS spent on having the twenty-five of us presenting. Hmm. I think I did not bad. :P Melvin got owned. He was first to present, and he so bloody obviously just did a great job copying and pasting. I mean, hey, if you are copying from Wikipedia, then please, for God's sake, use your brain and at least remove the links to other Wikipedia articles, as well as the square brackets indication incitations!!

Sigh... Why am I so unlucky to go after Aaron? His website is all bloody Flash, and the lecturer was so freaking impressed by the look and appearance of his website that I doubt she would even bother looking at the rest of anyone of us. Why bother about content and the colour scheme (Aaron told me he only used four colours - white, black, orange and grey. I couldn't find any grey in his website myself ._.) when you can just impress the teacher with a whole bloody website entirely composed of Flash?

Qiyang, Jurene, Jian Shun and Yong Han's websites were so similar that one would have thought they simply changed the images and text, and left the coding totally intact and exactly the same as one another's. XD I like Khai Ming's website. "Simplicity". Ahh. Peacefully soothing. I told Jia Hao his text and background colours totally clash and contrast against each other, but he wouldn't listen. ._. Michael's homepage had a huge Mozilla Firefox icon slapped onto it, telling visitors to use that very browser to access it. Plus two respect points for him. Why didn't I think of that? Damn. Should have slapped a huge Firefox icon into MY webpage too. Darn.

To be honest, I can't really remember anyone else's. ._.

Oh, and Aaron and I were reading the newly out Fullmetal Alchemist chapter 86 together halfway throughout the entire presentation because Aaron got bored and decided to check One Manga for new manga chapter releases. XD

Went to PRSP lecture after that, because we were all practically told and forced to. ._. There was a little briefing before the exams and the end of the term that took about thirty minutes, and after that, bummer, the PRSP lecture. ._. More than half of us were already burning with the desire to get the hell out, including me (^o^).

I like how the two Masons, as well as Shawn, tried to escape out of the lecture threatre. They were sitting in the middle of the row of chairs, and when the lecturer turned his head to look at the screen and to point his laser at whichever line of code he was then explaining at (he was talking about assignment 1, by the way, aeons ago. Yawn...!), they would then shift their position to one chair to the right and sit down there, so when the lecturer turns his head back to the audience, he would find them still sitting down and apparently paying attention. When the lecturer turns his head back to the screen, they would then shift position again, sometimes maybe even jumping two chairs at once. When they were at the extreme right of the row, they would then just run out of the lecture threatre through the entrance at the back. Rofl! XD

We were all watching them as they tried to escape. Haha. I was even prompting them to move by waving when the lecturer had his head facing the screen. Nothing to do mah. Though, must admit, Fuyuan was cooler. He just didn't bother to give a damn, instead slowly walking out and exiting at his own pace and speed, not caring about what the lecturer thinks. XD Right after Fuyuan leaves, someone asks the lecturer if he can leave or not.

The lecturer replies, "Sure, go ahead. It's not I who miss out anyway." These two sentences received a lot of grumblings from the audience, and about seventy percent of us immediately stood up and got the hell out. So much for Masons and Shawn sneaking out so troublesomely. XD Oh, and Aaron bloody fell asleep during the briefing, so he was still sleeping there when we left, not knowing what the heck is going on. Kenny and I had to go back and wake him up. -.- The lecturer caught the two of us standing at the stairs, whacking Aaron and trying to wake him up, and immediately roared at us, "What are you doing there?!" Oops.

Jian Shun, Jurene, Kenny, Aaron, Khai Ming, Jia Hao and I went to Bistro Walk to eat, with Qiyang and Yong Han coming later to join us after the lecture ends. I must admit, the food there was rather bland, tasteless and just plain unappetizing, yet was freaking expensive. I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon...

Jian Shun and Jurene went back home to work on their Storyboarding assignment, so the remaining seven of us went back to IIT School and try to find a computer lab where we can do our Storyboarding assignment, since we were all going to the games room (apparently, according to Kenny, there's Team Fortress 2 there). We found one where it was already occupied with some of my classmates, lmao.

Must admit - was extremely difficult to focus on drawing the frames I drew when Kenny and Khai Ming were laughing their asses off watching videos on YouTube. Got so pissed off to be honest. -.- Aaron and Jia Hao got bored and went to find some Chinglish signs on the Internet to laugh their asses off at. Khai Ming, Kenny, Shi Hui, Yong Han, Qiyang and I all joined in. XD!

Managed to finish colouring two of my Storyboarding frames, though I must admit, the second one where my male protagonist holds the hand of the female protagonist was a pain to colour, mainly because of her long hairstyle! Damn it, I swear, it's a pain. Next time, no more long hairstyles!! Oh, and it was troublesome to decide on a colour for her long hair as well. I wanted light blue, but it looked disgustingly bright. I tried pink, following Kenny's advice, and it was even more disgusting and even brighter. I ended up with brown. I hope Jurene doesn't sue me for copyright issues. ._.

I wonder how animes decide hair colours for their girls. ._.

Went to the games room. No TF2. =.= Then what the hell did I stay back in school so late for?? Rargh. Went to play some basketball game with Jia Hao on the PlayStation 2. I was initially leading, but the fact that I kept trying to rely on three-pointers to score yet keep failing to score meant that Jia Hao caught up with me, and the first half ended in 16-17, me losing by one mark. XD No fair, he got Yao Ming on his team and I don't. ._. Jia Hao got bored and both of us quit playing, lol.

Went to play CounterStrike. Got a terrible headache and instead went back to the consoles area, where Qiyang and Kuan Wei were playing Guitar Hero III. XD I took over the PlayStation 3 and played Time Crisis 4. Died at the part with the helicopter where you get infinite ammo and can just keep firing like no tomorrow. Damn. Qiyang took over and beat the whole entire game with only one continue (each game has nine lives, by the way XD). Oooooh. My first time seeing the Time Crisis 4 ending. :3

Lmao, I seriously like the fight with the boss of Stage 2, where while the two playable characters shoot him down, Rush gets busy fighting the boss in front of the two of them in a melee combat match, shouting stuff like "You! You're a disgrace to your country!!" and "You took an oath of loyalty to your country!". Was funny watching the two of them fight, while Qiyang gets pissed and keeps screaming, "Ahh!! Don't block my way!!", just because he gets a thousand points deducted from him when he ends up accidentally hitting Rush. XD!

Went home with Aaron on bus 8. Saw Justin-kun on the bus stop, so the three of us took the same bus home, haha.

To kick down the people who sought to hurt those I have sworn to protect.

2008-08-12T18:40:00.005+08:00

Hmmm, kinda embarrassing to blog about this, actually, lol. This morning, I dreamt about playing soccer, but I never scored any goals with my legs, instead only scoring using headers, with passes from my teammates. When a girl came and asked me why I insisted on not using my legs, and what my legs were for, I replied, "My legs? To kick down the people who sought to hurt those I have sworn to protect."

YES!! NO WDS TUTORIAL TODAY!! w00t w00t!!

Accidentally went to school too early this morning. INCG lab session started at 10am, but I arrived in school at 9.30am. Just when I was about to go and think of what to do to kill time, I saw Aaron waving at me from inside the lab that we were meant to have our WDS tutorial in, lol, so I just went in and hang out with them, where they are doing their INCG presentation in the last minute, haha.

Kenny came wearing red, as well as wearing a pair of jeans as well. Holy shit, that's exactly the same as Khai Ming! Both wearing red, and both wearing jeans! O_______o Well, Khai Ming is coming up with the excuse that he is wearing a red T-shirt, while Kenny is wearing a red polo shirt, but heh. :P

Three hours of INCG was spent at people after people going up for their presentations. Kind of got disconnected there. In laymen's terms, wasn't paying attention. XD

Went to Mensa to eat lunch with Kenny, Aaron, Jia Hao, Khai Ming, Jurene, Yong Han, Qiyang and Jian Shun. Khai Ming, Kenny and I are sitting at a table, and all three of us are eating kuay chap, haha. Though, while Khai Ming and I were eating a bowl each...

Kenny ate two. D:

Went to a computer lab, where they all started finishing their PRSP assignment 2 in the last minute. Kenny kept realizing errors and mistakes and making corrections to his code, and he had to re-burn his disc each time he did that. He ended up burning his disc for seven times. Bloody hell.

I was reading up on Diablo III in the meantime, by the way. Yes, I was that bored. Ugh. Damn, I hope Diablo III can hurry up and be released. I need a game to get myself addicted to. -.-

PRSP next. Spent like thirty minutes queuing up waiting for the lab interview, and the lecturer asked me two questions which are so easy I feel they insult my knowledge intelligence. Oh well. Went home with Aaron. :3

No matter what happens, I will keep forging my way forward.

2008-08-11T18:52:00.003+08:00

Today's INCG lecture was basically a summary of, what, the past fourteen or so lectures that we had been having? Essentially, a revision for our exam. Yes, the INCG exam, on the twenty-sixth of August, fifteen days later. Sigh... I have practically zero confidence for it. I need to work harder for my INCG. A lot harder. Ganbaru yo.

C. Maths tutorial next. Was practically sleeping with my eyes open or something. Nmaa, can't remember much from it. There. Evidence that I was sleeping with eyes open. Oh well. Let's move on.

Went to Design School for lunch with Kenny, Aaron, Jia Hao, Khai Ming, Jian Shun, Jurene, Yong Han and Qiyang. Was sitting at a table with Kenny, Aaron, Jia Hao and Khai Ming as usual, but for some reason, Jian Shun came and sat with us too, instead of with the other three whom he usually hangs out around with. Strange. Something seems wrong with him today. Oh well.

Oh, and Kenny came to school wearing the T-shirt that he got from participating in the World Cyber Games, and I decided to take photos of it while we were queuing up for food. XP

Front.

Back.
Did I mention that he got fourth in Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath? Fourth!! My friend was the fourth best player in the whole of Singapore for C&C3! :D Of course, I kept saying "Fourth." in his face, for the fun of it. Why? First prize gets $600, second prize gets $400, third prize gets $200, and fourth prize? $0. XD!!

We went to a computer lab in the seventh floor. Argh, shitty computers there. No Internet access, jGRASP (practically the only Java-editing software other than Notepad) won't load, and no scanners there as well. Argh. RAGE. Shitty computers.

Went to CMSK. We got back our marks throughout the term. Bleh, I think I score the lowest in the whole entire class, but hey, look at my face. Do I look like I care? Do I look like I give a damn? Hmmm? Hmmm?? ^_^ Screw CMSK.

Had to stay in school because I still had CCA. Bummer, bummer, major bummer. Aaron and I went to find a computer lab for him to finish up his PRSP assignment 2, while I draw my Storyboard. Oooh, Captain Tsubasa - World Youth chapter 63 and 64 came out, and with that, the series ended. Awww. Would be looking forward to Captain Tsubasa - Road to 2002! :D

Finished my Storyboard at last, w00t. Now to scan it, colour it and string it into a video. Ugh. Why does it seem as if there are still so many things to do...? =.= Can't help complaining - neverending tasks combined with the deadline already so close yet coming much closer and closer. And Aaron keeps asking me to shut the hell up, because he's worse off in the fact that he didn't even draw his Storyboarding thumbnails.

And oi, who was the one playing World of Warcraft during the weekends, while the other is freaking busy spending his whole entire weekend drawing that bloody Storyboard? Huh?! Who?!

Went to CCA. Ah. Nothing much to say. Other than the fact that Castillo (had to check his name in my handphone's contacts just to verify whether I spelt his name correctly ) was wearing a tie which pissed me off.

Oh, and the fact too that Aaron disconnected entirely from the meeting, instead sitting down at a corner and spending the whole entire time drawing a really hot-looking girl with a huge sword that reminded me of the one Kurogane is holding in Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE volume 4 cover.

Oh, and the fact too too that while it may be fun to play badminton with one racket, it seems even more fun to play badminton with three rackets! Bite one in your mouth, hold the other two in your hands, and you can practically spin around like mad when the shuttlecock comes your way, shout, "三刀流：龍巻き！ (Santouryuu: Tatsu Maki!; Three-Swords-Style: Dragon Twister!)", and look at the shuttlecock go spinning and whirling and sent flying.

Or hey, even better - nine rackets!! 九刀流：阿修羅魔九閃！ (Kyuutouryuu: Asura Makyuusen!; Nine-Swords-Style: Asura Demon Nine Flash!) Lol. Provided if you know a way to produce two more heads and four more arms. XP

Went home all hungry, ugh.

Hungry Ghost Festival Banquet

2008-08-10T08:39:00.002+08:00

Went to a Hungry Ghost Festival banquet tonight in a restaurant in the third floor of The Grassroots' Club, next to Nanyang Polytechnic in Ang Mo Kio. My father and I first went to my grandmother's house to fetch her, then to Dan's house to fetch him and his mother. The five of us went there, and wow, we need to pay three dollars to enter and park in the carpark! Sweet! You know what? I think I will be a carpark operator when I grow up. Just imagine how rich I would be if one thousand and simply one thousand cars came and parked at my carpark.

That place is kind of fanciful, haha. And I must admit, the chairs they have there is a lot more comfortable than the sofa I have at home. -.- I can sit down on the chair, and three seconds later, start to fall asleep. XD The five of us went into the restaurant and started to wait for the banquet to start, but my father and I got bored and ran out to explore the place. XD

Halfway through our explorations, Dan came, wielding coins in his hand and telling us that his mother told him there was an arcade here somewhere. I decided to go with him to look for th arcade, so off the two of us go. Couldn't find anything though, bummer. We went back to the restaurant, where Dan kept complaining how hungry he is.

I told him to go into the kitchen, grab a knife lying around nearby and shout, "This is a robbery! Give me all your food!!" But I bet it would be an unwise move, seeing that no doubt the chefs there are loaded with sharp, huge and menacing choppers that have seen many pieces of meat sliced up. ^^"

Since we were all sitting down there waiting for the banquet to start and for the food to be served, I naturally got bored, so in the meanwhile, I was looking around the table, and I realized, hey! My father, Dan and I, the only males at this table, are all wearing polo shirts! So I was wondering if when Mark and his father came, would they too be wearing polo shirts?

I laughed out loud when Mark came wearing a polo shirt, and even louder when he told me that his father, who is parking the car at the moment, also wore a polo shirt! Too bad, his father actually came wearing a shirt. Mark has no idea what his father wears. =.=

After the first dish (which kind of sucks, I have to admit) came the shark's fin soup. Before it actually arrived, I was asking Mark and Dan how many bean sprouts there will be in the shark's fin soup. You know, those restaurants serving fake and shitty shark's fin soup usually spam bean sprouts like no tomorrow? Yeah. So we started making guesses about how many bean sprouts there will be in the whole bowl for the whole table.

I guessed sixty, Dan guessed twenty and Mark guessed one. And holy bloody imbal gay shit... THERE WASN'T EVEN ONE BEAN SPROUT!! Holy fuck! O_______O It was damn tasty by the way, hahaha. Arguably the best shark's fin soup I've ever drank. And thanks to my grandmother for giving up her bowl of shark's fin soup so I could have two. XD

Dan said that it was so tasty he wanted to drink it again. I jokingly recommend he come back and have his lunch here everyday. XD! Yeah, that would make him go broke.

During the auction of the banquet, there was a little bicycle for children being auctioned. I jokingly told Mark that I would buy it for him, and he said, "If you buy it, I will ride it home." So I immediately thought of buying it, having Mark ride it home and taking photos of him for the bloody sake of fun. XD Too bad, it got bid before I finished deciding whether I want to buy it or not. Blast it! And to think it was sold for only $169! XD

Oh, and by the way, the stairs at the Grassroots' Club are damn imbal. Take a look at the photos I took there.

It's bloody suspending in mid-air with no support! H4x!! Took me quite a while to gather up the courage to try walking up and down the stairs, lmao.

I had fun exploring the place with Mark and Dan, by the way. ^^

I got extremely bored near the end of the banquet, because of various reasons. One, the chair there is stiff and uncomfortable. Two, the ten of us are all cramping around the table, so it was rather cramped. Three, the auctioning going on is too loud. Four, the chairs outside are so comfortable that it is imbal. Five, I want to listen to music. These five reasons prompted me to go outside, sit on the chairs there and listen to music. XD I told Dan to send me a message telling me to get in when the next dish came.

After listening to few songs, Dan SMSed me, saying, "Noodles are here." I went back, happily ate my bowl of noodles and got the hell out again. XD After listening to some music, I saw Mark coming out. Nature calls him, and I decided to tag along with him to the toilet. XD I also told him that I overheard a few kids talking about the presence of an arcade in the second floor (Dan and I tried to look for it before Mark came, but couldn't find it), so the two of us went to the second floor. But damn, it closes at 11pm, and the time then? 10.50pm. =.=

The two of us went back to the entrance of the restaurant. I once again sat down at the comfortable seats outside, just ready to listen to music, while Mark starts persuading me to go in, for some reason. Just when I was about to press the "play" button, Dan SMSed me. Major bummer. -.- And lol, he SMSed, "Time for cold stuff."

"Cold stuff"? O_o I went back with Mark and asked him what the hell "cold stuff" is. Apparently, he didn't know whether to spell it "desert" or "dessert" (it's the second one, by the way), so hey, "cold stuff" it is! XD

We went back home after cold stuff. :3

Happy National Day!

2008-08-09T10:23:00.001+08:00

Happy National Day! Damn it, only drew fifteen frames of my Storyboarding assignment today. Could have drew more if

1. I don't have Warcraft III on my computer
2. There isn't any National Day Parades on the television
3. There isn't any mood to procrastinate in my mind
4. There isn't any laziness in my blood. :P

Oh well, I'll make it up by finishing tomorrow. I've got to. Kanarazu!

Oh, and there's this comedy show on Channel 5 named "First Class". It was damn funny, haha. I'll have to remember that the next episode is on Tuesday, 19 August. ._. That's why I don't like watching television, having to remember when the episodes are broadcast and stuff. XD

Lol, One Piece chapter 510 is basically about the Straw Hats spamming their ultimate attacks one after another. First Chopper's Roseo Metel, then Nami's Thunder Lance Tempo, followed by Sanji's Diable Jambe: Flambage Shot, and Zoro's Kyuutouryuu: Asura Makyuusen next (ooooh, Zoro's second time using Kyuutouryuu - I thought he forgot about that XD), and finally ending with Luffy's Gomu Gomu no Gigant Rifle.

If you tell me that Kuma can still stand after this, I'll have nothing to say.

Tsugumi-sensei and Takeshi-sensei, the mangaka who did Death Note, have came up with another manga, lol, named Bakuman. Basically, it's a manga about two boys wanting to become mangaka. Rofl. The girl in the manga is cute. XP Lucky guy, getting her to promise marrying him... I need to work hard too.

Yup, work hard! Off to my Storyboarding assignment! Ganbaru yo!

Me and my laptop one year anniversary

2008-08-08T23:04:00.003+08:00

Yay, today is me and my laptop's one year anniversary! One year ago, I bought my laptop from Best Denki, Century Square, and now, today, one year later, I am still using it! XD Yay! ^o^ Haha. I love my laptop.

Spent the whole day today finishing my PRSP assignment 2, and my Storyboarding thumbnails. Yay! I'm proud to announce that I finished both of them! Rather proud of how my Storyboarding thumbnails turned out too, despite the fact that I suck like shit at drawing. XD I'll just have to photocopy the worksheet that the lecturer gave us tomorrow, then draw my Storyboarding frames there. For my PRSP, blah, I'll print the status report and burn the files onto the CD on Monday.

Of course, needless to say, I had to refer a lot for my Storyboarding thumbnails, especially to this certain favorite manga of mine named Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE. Hey, it's just ~~coincidental~~ hitsuzen that my main character happened to have the same hairstyle, way of drawing sword, and elemental magic spells with "Syaoran", protagonist of the manga, eh?

Thus, with that said, if you ever bother to look at my Storyboarding thumbnails and ask me where I got my reference from for any particular frame, I can directly point to you at the name of the manga, the chapter number and even the page number. XD Hmmm, let me count... Sixteen out of thirty-four of my thumbnails are drawn with reference. That's it. I'm dead. XD

Played Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne with James. There was one particular game where there are four teams, each having two players. As usual, I was using Orcs while he was using Undead. I spammed Wind Riders and Troll Batriders, while he spammed Gargoyles and Frost Wyrms. The result?

I call it the "Flying Terror of Doom".

Lol, I like the chapter cover of Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 196. "Syaoran" of the present, wearing the clothes that his clone used to wear, and "Syaoran" of the past, wearing that Chinese-looking clothes.

As for the chapter itself, it's a bit OMGWTF. Sakura revealing that her real name isn't Sakura, Fei Wong Reed implanting a so-called "Seal of Death" on Sakura, "Syaoran" going all shocked, wide-eyed and furious. Then he tried a Raitei Shourai but got owned and started spitting blood. So as a last resort, he gathered all of the energy into a huge, epic pillar of lightning that looks pwnage, but he ran out of energy (he's still a kid after all) and collapsed.

Lol. I want the next chapter now already. And what? We have to wait two weeks for the next chapter?! Ugh.

I really enjoyed the small little Naruto bit in Naruto chapter 412. "Ow!" "Argh!" "Ouch!!" "Ack!!" It's as if the old frog's playing Whack-A-Naruto! XD!

Storyboarding?

2008-08-07T18:08:00.001+08:00

Storyboarding?

I guess I can... If you want... No one else available... That's it. I'm dead.

俺には夢、夢ないから

2008-08-06T12:27:00.003+08:00

Okay, let's make this blog post quick. I still got my Storyboarding homework I need to rush to finish, and I really ought to stop procrastinating...

First lesson of today is a WDS lab session. Yet another waste of time. I spent the two hours doing Java, and, with the help of the note that Aaron copied from a book while at the library, managed to complete PRSP assignment 2 question 3 without even realizing how! O_o The main structure is completed, I just need to fine-tune it and make the program modular, then w00t, I'm done.

Oh, I also spent some time helping Kenny out with his East Coast Park website. Mainly because of my desire to procrastinate. Heh.

Went to Mensa to eat lunch with Kenny, Jia Hao, Khai Ming, Qiyang, Jian Shun, Jurene, Yong Han and Aaron. Heh. Been such a long time since I have eaten lunch at school with a group of more than five, to be honest. I still remember those good old days when we go out and eat lunch by the dozens. XD

All of us, for some reason, ate kuay chap, except for Aaron, who ate lor mee, that stinkin' traitor. XD Kenny, Aaron and I sat at a table, and the two of them just kept talking about Red Alert 3 the whole time, haha. Kenny just got the Red Alert 3 beta yesterday night by the way.

Aaron, Jia Hao and Khai Ming went to Kenny's house to play Red Alert 3, while Qiyang, Jian Shun, Jurene and Yong Han stayed in school to finish up their WDS websites. Me? I went home to slack and procrastinate. :3

For some reason, back at home, I didn't realize that I already had lunch at school until halfway through my lunch at home. So essentially, I ended up with two lunches today. Ugh. /facepalm

Captain Tsubasa: World Youth chapter 62 came out three days ago, and for some reason, I only realized it today. o.O

For some reason, the Japan Youth Team, after beating Sweden 1-0 in the quarter-finals, suddenly skipped the semi-final match against Holland and went on to fighting against Brazil in the finals. Now that's freaking weird.

I think I'm starting to hate Roberto Hongo. First, he meets Tsubasa and promise to bring him to Brazil, only to abandon Tsubasa and leave on his own. Then, before World Youth, after Tsubasa went to Brazil and study under him, he kicks Tsubasa out of the Brazil World Youth team and force him back to Japan. And now? He apparently wants to "humiliate" him by giving him such a good trashing? My God. Someone, please, beat the fuck out of that bastard.

I think Tsubasa doing a Sky Wing Shoot in his stomach or face would be a good one, but hey, if you'd let me to choose, I think I'd have Hyuga shooting a Raijuu Shoot in his stomach too, while shouting, "And that's for bloody copying the fucking Raijuu Shoot I spent so long and took so much effort to master, and for changing that name to such an asshole one too!" O_o

I kind of hate how the mangaka made the first half to be. The Brazil team cut off all passes to Tsubasa, shattering the Japanese zone press tactic (which requires Tsubasa to be in the direct center of it), and what the fuck, the Japan team can't do any shit at all already? I mean, for fuck's sake, they are making Tsubasa to look like he's the freaking emphasis of the team, and that the others can't do a shit without Tsubasa!

I mean, come on, both Matsuyama and Misugi played as the center midfield in the national tournament before they joined the national team, just like Tsubasa, right? Can't they take over the role of game making? And what about Aoi, who is also another midfield who can take over Tsubasa's role, and is imbal dodging opponents with his epic Chokkaku Feint? And what about our Mr. Run-Hundred-Metres-In-Eleven-Seconds Nitta Shun? I don't think he's only a forward who knows how to spam Hayabusa Shoots (as the mangaka portrayed him to be)? Or even Hyuga and his Chokusen Teki Dribble? Ah, the list can go on and on; there are just so many talented players in the Japan team.

So why? Why Tsubasa? Why?! =_=

Must admit, the two goalkeepers are pure imbal. Well, of course, both teams have strikers who can do the currently-imbal Raijuu Shoot/Sky Wing Shoot, and it's obvious and natural that the goalkeepers train by having their strikers repetitively shoot their most powerful shot at them, so I bet both of them are already pros at catching Raijuu Shoots and Sky Wing Shoots by now.

Misaki is on the field. Yay. ^o^ It was as if yesterday that he got crashed by that freaking lorry, and now he's already back on the field and able to play! Seriously, I look forward to the Golden Trio between Tsubasa, Misaki and Aoi. :D

Oh, and before I forgot, LOL at Tsubasa trying to do a Sky Dive Shoot right at the beginning and failing miserably. Matsuyama might make a better captain if you ask me; his school team back at the national tournament was all about teamwork, cooperation and coordination, something Tsubasa fails miserably at. I mean, just look at Sky Dive Shoot? A shoot where he takes the ball and literally dives all the fucking way into the opponent's goalpost? What the fuck is he smoking to think up of something like that?

Good captains, in my opinions, should be able to organize the whole entire team, and not just run off and pwn just by himself. Need examples? Matsuyama Hikaru back when he was the Captain of the Furano school team, and Mark Owairan, Captain of the Saudi Arabia Youth Team. Tsubasa? Epic fail.

"Eat this! When I strike, I score! No use arguing about it; this is infallible! My unequalled Raijuu Shoot!!"

Epic quote, I know. Too bad it failed. Was already expecting that.

Freezing to death before I even felt coldness

2008-08-05T17:58:00.004+08:00

Today is so bloody cold that I just couldn't stop sneezing. Was so cold when I woke up (thanks to my hairdryer though, I solved the problem, albeit temporarily XD), was so cold on the bus, was so cold in WDS lab, was so cold in INCG lab, was so cold in the library, was so cold in the PRSP lab. Bloody hell!! If each sneeze I get means that there is a girl somewhere in this world thinking of me, I think I'd be in wonderland!! Believe in Wonderland!!

Saw Jian Shun onboard bus 8 on my way to school this morning. The two of us went to the WDS lab together. Yet another ridiculous lesson where we learnt nothing - absolutely, completely nothing at all. Sigh. I'm starting to doubt my very presence in the school. Why am I spending $1,123.50 every six months just to gain access to a computer lab where I can watch Jia Hao try to animate a man pulling a rickshaw in Flash? =.=

INCG lab session next. Was supposed to listen to a one hour long podcast talking about violence and sexual content in games, their impact, what the media and politicians tend to do about it, etc., etc. For some reason, it was going in one ear and going out the other. I'm glad I had Aaron beside me, who managed to listen to what was said, and summarize it in point form. I worked on his point work and just managed to finish the 600-word report on the podcast. XD

Oh, and during the one-hour long podcast, I was finishing up my WDS website. XD

And after that was the presentation about our assignments. I kind of had an interest with Jin Yao's one on virtual economies, haha. I knew one little Java-based MMORPG which got screwed over and fucked up because the producers ultimately got pissed off by real-world traders. Yes. It is that sad.

I was the last to present for the day. Oh, joy. Damn it, Qiyang was firing questions at me one after another after the presentation again, and it sure reminded me of the Orcas strike yesterday for CMSK. I think I seriously need some anti-air defenses... Oh well.

Went to Business school to eat, with Kenny, Jia Hao, Aaron and Khai Ming. Kenny, Khai Ming and I sat at a table, while Aaron and Jia Hao at another. Jian Shun, Qiyang, Jurene and Yong Han came a while later, lol. For some reason, our two groups seem to always happen to coincidentally eat lunch at the same location. o.O

Kenny, the guy with a rift generator in his demonic stomach - he freaking ate two bowls of noodles during lunch! O_______O

Went to the library after lunch, all of us intending to study Java, as we have a PRSP test coming up later. Khai Ming tried to practice his Java writing skills, while at the same time made a parody of Kenny's neverending hungry, so he wrote up a short little Java program repetitively printing out messages that say, "Kenny is hungry. Kenny eats a bowl of noodles." XD Aaron and I took turns improving on that program, and we ended with this:

We all lost interest in reading Java, one after another. Aaron even went to sleep on top of those books. XD

I went to sleep later too. ^^ Due to our laziness, we ended up not going for C. Maths lecture. Ah. Ugh.

PRSP lab test was so bloody simple, I hate myself for overestimating it. No challenge, no kick. I finish it early and went off. Too lazy to even apply stuff such as exceptional handling. Okay, let me be truthful - I can't do exceptional handling without reference. XD But hey, that's okay. :3

Went home after that. Saw Hiok Joo at the bus stop opposite TP, lol.

For glory!

Felt a bit sian today. Perhaps it is a Monday, meaning no more staying up late to play Warcraft III with James. Perhaps it is because it ends the weekends, which provide me ample time to do and finish up my homework.

First period today was INCG lecture. The lecture was about Gaming and Contemporary Issues. You know, violence, murders, killing, sexual content and all that stuff in video games, and how the bloody media and politicians tend to make a bloody big deal out of it? This = win.

Second period was C. Maths tutorial. Wah, got owned sia. Cannot pon lecture liao.

Kenny, Jia Hao, Khai Ming, Aaron and I went to the library. I have seven words to declare: The Internet connection at Temasek Polytechnic sucks. Whoever gets attracted to study in TP just because of this page is bound to be disappointed. I swear it.

Aaron went off to a computer lab to do some Flash stuff for his WDS website. About twenty minutes later, the four of us decided to join him, because the Internet there was so terrible that we could not do anything. Went to the computer lab, and the wireless network there was also pretty shitty for my laptop. Took about bloody half an hour to connect to the Internet.

CMSK next. Normally, I'd complain a lot before abruptly ending this paragraph and moving on, but not for this week. Instead, we had "conversation circle 2", where we sit down, talk about some stupid topic and let the lecturer rate us and give us a grade. So unluckily, I ended up teaming with Jia Hao (whom of course, I don't mind at all) and Kok Keong (emo gay with a serious attitude problem - I don't think I wanna give a damn about that asshole any more to be honest.), against Jian Shun (yare yare...), Qiyang (yare yare...) and Jurene.

It was just like playing a game of Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, in a two-versus-three game, where the three enemies were all GDI spamming Orcas. (In C&C3, Orcas are aircraft that can only carry a limited number of missiles, and thus have to return to the Airfield to reload their missiles.) After you successfully defend against one player's Orcas, where the defense of your base is already crippled to the point of oblivion, the next player comes with a fleet of Orcas. And AFTER you fend off the second attack, oh, look, here comes the third one! Run for your lives!! And after the third one leaves... THE FIRST ONE RETURNS! HOLY BANANA!

Yup, it was practically like that, expect the fact that Jia Hao and I didn't have much to say about the topic. This is pretty much equivalent to having to defend against Orca strikes without anti-air defenses. Know what? Good game.

Stayed in school because I had CCA later. -.-

Jurene, Jian Shun, Qiyang, Jia Hao and I went to the computer lab, where Aaron, Yong Han and Wan Xiang already were. We joined them, though Jia Hao left later to go home. We were later chased out because they were having a lesson in the lab. Bleh. -.-

Couldn't find another computer lab, so Jurene, Jian Shun and Qiyang went home, while Aaron and me still had to stay in school. The two of us went to sit down at the benches at the first floor of IT school. I initially wanted to finish up my WDS website, but meh, in the end, I decided to procrastinate and play Risk II with Aaron. XD

We played a four-player SameTime game with two computers AI. Here are some screenshots.

Mwahahaha, I attacked the enemy AI from all directions. :D

Fancy two players sending only one troop each just for India. /facepalm You guys can have it; I don't want it!

Mwahahaha, China with 55 men! :D

When I took this screenshot, Aaron was practically screaming, "Nooooooo! No screenshots! Nooooooo!" XD

The final battle. :D

I pwned Aaron.

All your base are belong to us! :D

I wanted to go and do some homework, but Aaron wants a new game, lol. This time, we played yet another four players game, but this time, in classic. I started in South America and quickly spread my forces to conquer North America, and then, Africa, while Aaron started in Australia and quickly moved to capture Asia. To prevent him from gaining seven extra reinforcements due to occupying Asia, I backstabbed him from from North America. XD

Due to the fact that I was getting reinforcements much quicker than him (I had four continents by the time the two computer players vanished from the map, while he only had one), he quickly choked defense in Indonesia to defend Australia, haha. I broke his fortress, with one hundred and eighty-one men, while he only had twenty-five. :D

And this is the screenshot of our final battle. Good game. :)

Went to CCA later. Not much to talk about it, other than the fact that I was doing the "About Us" page of my WDS website, and the layout of my INCG assignment 2 presentation PowerPoint slides during the meeting.

Went home on bus 8 with Aaron and Justin-kun. XD

Santouryuu: Gomu Gomu no Diablo Mouton Jet 600 Pound Cannon!!

2008-08-03T18:33:00.003+08:00

Yay, One Piece chapter 509 is out, and with it, a newly combination attack by Luffy, Zoro and Sanji, with an ultra long name. ._____. And for some reason, it didn't turn out to be as epic as Gomu Gomu no 300 Pound Cannon, in which it is supposed to be much more powerful than. Oh well, at least it was nice to know that Luffy can do a Gomu Gomu no Jet Cannon in Gear Second. Gomu Gomu no Cannon was pretty epic by itself, so I hope Oda-sensei can have Luffy do a Gomu Gomu no Jet Cannon by himself. I bet it's going to be a One-Hit K.O. XD!

Sorry for my lateness, but here it is, my new blog footer! :D Thanks to Nathan for compressing it, it was over 900KB before he did that. ._.

If you shall insist on standing in my way...
Then I will, without fail, cut you down!
Instead of the other banners and footers, where I first decide on the pictures to use before deciding on the text, I actually decided on the text first. Then, I was picturing having a badass and menacing-looking Kurogane, holding his sword up. I was planning to use Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE volume 3 deluxe cover.

But blast, I couldn't find a high-resolution one. So instead, I decided to use Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE volume 4 cover, but again, no high-resolution.

So I ended up using Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE volume 12 cover, this one featuring Clone Syaoran wielding Hien instead, hehe. Oh well, at least it contrasts with my blog banner, depicting "Syaoran" holding the sword Syaoran passed to him. I wonder if CLAMP has a name for the jian, hmmm.

追逐无尽的梦想，走在没有路标的世界…

重叠的思念刺痛扉
悠扬的诗歌静静流淌
遥远天空的彼方，掺杂着我们的身影
必然与无常之间，承载这我们的记忆
时之漩涡擦身而过，即使海枯石烂
依然相信你的声音

追逐无尽的梦想，走在没有路标的未来
纵使我失去光芒，总有一天
你为我点燃明亮的心之火焰
将希望的碎片化作羽翼

大雨不肯停息，柔美月光撒遍大地
不在乎伤痕累累，让爱慕随风而去
目光撕裂重重黑暗，双眸清澈而湛蓝
超越孤独与绝望，满身历练之迎记
时之间隙倾斜扭曲，在交错羁绊中
能够察觉你的存在

依循缥缈的道路，走在没有答案的世界
不知不觉中迷惘停下脚步的你啊
请点亮心中火焰走向希望的明天

追逐缥缈的梦想，走在没有路标的世界
我的愿望定会实现，心之火焰永放光芒

追逐无尽的梦想，走在没有路标的未来
纵使我失去光芒，总有一天
你为我点燃明亮的心之火焰
将希望的碎片化作羽翼

Yay, manga, the essence of my spirit ^o^

2008-08-01T13:18:00.003+08:00

Ah, today's the first day of the seventh month in the Chinese calendar. Guess it's the start of the Chinese Ghost Festival, eh? Sigh, I used to dislike this month back when I was a small little kid, just becase my mother told me that I couldn't relieve my liquid waste product anywhere because if so, I would offend the "good brothers".

And then I was like, "Huh? So troublesome? What if I can't find a toilet? :3" Haha! XD I'm such a idiot when I was a kid. XD

Yay, Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 195, Naruto chapter 411 and Bleach chapter 320 are out! :D

Lol, kinda exciting Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter this week, though the ending was a bit anti-climatic. Fei Wong Reed appeared out of a sudden during Sakura's final day of purification and attempted to kidnap her or something. "Syaoran" draws his sword and tries to protect her, but instead, the water in the purification grounds do that, against the black-colour fluid-thingies Fei Wong sent, lol.

To be honest, I thought the water was under "Syaoran"'s control through his spell of Suiryuu Shourai, haha, but bleh, turns out the water has some auto-defensive protection mechanism programmed into it or something. XD And the black-colour fluid-thingies under the control of Fei Wong reminds me of the ones after "Syaoran" and Clone Syaoran's fight in the Dream World. Maybe those were sent by Fei Wong as well, so that Kyle can steal Clone Sakura's body easily and uninterrupted?

Again, as I said, anti-climatic ending. -.- I want to know what happens next, grrr! Guess it's time to start the wait for next week's manga again, in this neverending wait. On a sidenote though, I love how "Syaoran" draws his sword. :D

Naruto chapter 411, yay. The chapter cover is kind of gay, by the way. I mean, carrying necklaces of pictures of each other, when they are two guys who had at least in one occasion threatened to kill one another, and when Sasuke made it seem as if he hates Naruto so much? Gee.

Lmao, didn't expect the Eight-Tailed Beast guy, Kira Hachi, to grab Zabuza's sword and start swinging it around against Sasuke. XD

And I thought Zoro's Santouryuu (Three-Swords-Style) is ridiculous enough already; here's a guy with Nanatouryuu (Seven-Swords-Style). /facepalm

Lol, Sasuke, gg.

Bleach is going nowhere, dammit. /facepalm

Yay, just completed Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, lol. The game was easy, but that was probably because I went to the Tower of Valni to grind all of the characters I am using, leveling them up to 20 before promoting them and then leveling them up to 20 again, so they have maximum stat growths. XD

The final boss was so easy, it was kind of ridiculous. Eirika just swings her Sieglinde, Ephraim swings his Siegmund, and boom, Fomortiis, the scary-looking Demon King, falls. -.- I didn't even give him a chance to retaliate or to summon any monsters, or even to move any of my remaining units, as a matter of fact.

My favorite character in this game is Amelia, hehe. Although it was a rather pain in the ass to recruit her (I had to restart that chapter quite a few times, because either she withdraws and retreats out of the battle after a certain number of turns, or she ran up to Eirika and got killed in Eirika's counter attack ):), and a pain in the ass to train as well (all Trainee classes are difficult to train, same with Ross and Ewan). But hey, after training her, she's strong now! Not to forget cute. XP

You will shine even in its darkest corners.

2008-07-31T15:08:00.003+08:00

I will follow you.
No matter how agonizing the world is,
You will shine even in its darkest corners.

Went to school on bus 8, and I saw the same girl on the bus whom I last saw four weeks ago, hahaha.

First lesson was Storyboarding. Spent four hours playing Flash games on www.bored.com. .___.

After the lesson, went down to the computer lab to use the Flash software there to make my stupid banner for my WDS website. I fail at Flash, but luckily, Aaron was there to help me. Thanks, Aaron! XD

When I complained about how hard Flash was, and how good Aaron was at Flash, he told me that me not understanding Flash is similar to how he doesn't understand Java, lol. Reminds me of Sanji's quote.

"Everyone has things that they can and can't do. Leave this guy's key to me. I'll do what you can't do. You do what I can't do! Think carefully. Read the situation!"
-Sanji, One Piece

Haha.

Took bus 8 home with Aaron and Jia Hao, then went to eat lunch at Block 201 with Aaron. :3

Fairy Tail chapter 97 is rather interesting, hmmm... There's this one time where the villain (I forgot his name ._. Oh yeah! Jeral, that's his name.) did this one lightning-attack on Natsu.

And O_O! I immediately recognize it as "Syaoran"'s Raitei Shourai attack!! O____O I mean, just look! Even the hand sign is the same!!

XD

Hey dude, thanks for telling me playing runescape and kicking bins are mature acts !

2008-07-30T12:22:00.006+08:00

I dedicate the first half of this blog post to Jin Yao, who nicely came to my tagboard and tagged "Hey dude, thanks for telling me playing runescape and kicking bins are mature acts !".

Firstly, I would like to mention that I am honoured to announce that this tag is the very first among my classmates to reply to my blog posts, which is ultimately what this very tagboard is meant for. Very muchly appreciated, Jin Yao. ^^

Secondly, I shall like to mention that I did not EXPLICITLY state which of my classmates are immature. I just very briefly mentioned that "some of them are immature". Think about it. Would those of my classmates who knows that they are already acting mature get so worked over? If I were them, I'd probably just go, "Meh, I know he isn't talking about me, so why cares?" or "Hmmm, I admit I have to agree with him."

So, why are you so worked up over for if you yourself know that you did nothing wrong? Why are you even retorting? Is it because of your guilty conscience? Are you admitting the fact that you yourself know that you are one of those "immature classmates" that I am refering to? Well, of course, needless for me to continue about this. There is this phrase "You know who you are.", and I think it very much suits the topic here.

Thirdly, are you really sure that you have the right to criticize me kicking the dustbin, and playing RuneScape?

Kicking the dustbin, yes, I admit that I was bored at that time, and feeling playful. Am I not allowed to kick something playfully?? I'm sure you have seen an empty water bottle along the road you are walking on sometime before, and you decided to merrily and joyfully give it a kick before you move on. If you didn't, then sad to say, I have to admit, you are missing out a lot for your childhood.

Just in what way does kicking a dustbin show that I am being immature? Yes, sure, I admit, I am being immature to the dustbin, but does it affect you in any way, shape or form? No, right? Well, if you say yes, then good luck, have fun, for I am going to start calling you "Mr. Dustbin".

And playing RuneScape? Are you sure you have the right to criticize a Java-based MMORPG when you yourself are already an utter failure in basic Java?? I mean, tch! Just look at what you asked me!

:: ToUsHiRoU_ :: iceTofu :: says:
GuessTheWord2.java:47: unexpected type
required: variable
found : value
hiddenWord.charAt(x ) = word.charAt(x );
^
:: ToUsHiRoU_ :: iceTofu :: says:
whats the error ?

Are you SURE you ought to criticize RuneScape when you yourself can't even write a basic Java program that matches up to a tiny fraction of RuneScape's standard?? If you want to criticize other games, then please, either employ the usage of constructive criticism, supported with reasons and explanations, or go and do something better for fuck's sake!

Oh, and I would like to stress on my second point.

Peace out. (:

Basically, I spent one thousand, one hundred, twenty-three dollars and fifty cents ($1123.50) every six months to gain access to the school's computer lab, which allows me to kill time playing Minesweeper. -.-

I'm not kidding. I spent one and a half hours in WDS lab session boringly playing Minesweeper, and the remaining half an hour messing around with Dreamweaver to kill time. -.-

Went home after that. Wow. It's so worth it to pay money and spend time attending school.

On a side note, I had to create a website for my WDS project, and Dreamweaver is pissing me off. I took four hours just to do a simple little layout. Argh... Curse CSS for making things so bloody complicated. -.-

Some of my classmates can be so bloody immature.

2008-07-29T18:36:00.003+08:00

Sigh. I wish that those around me can grow up and act more mature. I hate having to study in the same classroom as completely retarded three-year-old kids who act all childish and expect no one to get pissed off by them.

WDS tutorial this morning, waste of time. The keyboard looks so pretty being shone upon by the mouse's red laser though. :D

INCG lab session, learnt on AI path-finding algorithm, then had to do a networked game of checkers in Torque Game Builder. Surprise, I got bored like ten minutes after, and instead decided to go Google for an online Java-based checkers game for two players, and went to play with Aaron. I won twice, yay. ^o^ We even went to find one for Chinese Chess, haha, but I lost to Aaron. :(

Went to Kenny's house with Khai Ming, Jia Hao, Kenny and Aaron. Khai Ming, Aaron and I first played a free-for-all Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath game. I had Kenny as my advisor, but I got too confused and decided to surrender later by selling all of my structures when my base got under attack by Khai Ming. :P Khai Ming won the game.

Next, Kenny played a free-for-all game against Jia Hao and Khai Ming in the same map. Kenny won, managing to defeat the two of them at the same time for some weird reason. o.O Aaron, Khai Ming and Jia Hao then played yet another free-for-all game, this time in a different map. Khai Ming and Jia Hao were effectively ganging up against Aaron, making him extremely pissed off, lol. We had to leave before the game ended as we need to head back to school, but it was rather obvious that Aaron had lost. XP

PRSP lab session is such a bloody waste of time. ;__;

Wei Kai is getting Level 99 Strength in RuneScape today, so I decided to pop on to give him my congratulations. It coincided with the fact that there is a new quest out today, set in the Wilderness, so the two of us went to do it together.

Halfway through our trek through the Wilderness, we were attacked by a level 105 Revenant Ork. The two of us teamed up against that foul beast and vanquished it. XP

We defeated it after quite some time, haha, and moved on with our quest. Some time later, there was this part where we had to grow a Limpwurt Plant in the level 22 wilderness. As we need to spend up to fifteen minutes waiting for the darn shit to grow, there were quite a few players camping at the Farming patch as well, about ten or so.

Guess what happens when a level 126 Revenant knight shows up?

About seven people steps forward and starts to gang rape it! XD Too bad for it, it just had to attack a multi-combat location where players are waiting for their Limpwurt plants to grow. XP

The more I learn, the less I know.

2008-07-28T16:22:00.004+08:00

Sigh... Today is yet another Monday. Monday - the day of the week which I hate the most.

Ended up arriving in school about an hour early, at 7.55am. -.- I learnt that the library only opens at 8am, oooooh. So I went to the benches outside the library and camped there waiting for the library to open, along with a few like-minded people. The doors opened at 8am and we all rushed in. XD

Went to read up on Java again. This time, I read about two classes in the Java API, namely LinkedList and Stack. Okay, I get their concepts, but unfortunately, I doubt I can implement them into any programs without references. XP Argh, seriously, I realize that "the more I learn, the less I know". Yet, it's getting much and much harder to learn more Java stuff, because they are just so difficult and complicated and advanced... Ugh.

But no, I cannot let this stop me. Now, I can, and shall, only move forward.

Went to INCG lecture at 9am, taking along my breakfast of three tuna sandwiches and a bottle of jasmine green tea. XD The lecturer came after I finished my breakfast. Bummer. I thought I could eat while listening to the lecture. Damn stomach, greedy traitor that always betrays me for food... -.-

Learnt about Game Production and Management during the lecture. Knowing that game proposals are usually ten to twenty pages long and that game design documents are usually fifty to two hundred pages long seriously frighten me. And who is going to type up all that shit?! D:

Went to CMATHS tutorial next. Was reading Reader's Digest, lol. Read an interesting article about rising rice prices. Hmmm... Was difficult refraining myself from laughing out loud at the jokes section. XD

Went to the library with Melvin. I read a book about Java applets. Ugh. Confusing, confusing. But I must not fall. I must learn and master how to do graphical Java applications. Without fail.

Went to KFC with Melvin for lunch. That bugger wanted to go there, or else I wouldn't even. Nothing to eat there, and it's so expensive... ;_;

Melvin and I, after our lunches, went to the computer lab, where we joined the group of Jian Shun, Jurene, Yong Han and Qiyang, all still struggling to complete their INCG assignment 2. I found some online tutorial about drawing lines and shapes in Java, so I messed around with it. :3

Jian Shun went to www.typingtest.com for fun, and to check his speed of writing. He got 70+ words per minutes and 80% accuracy. I tried next, and I got 80+ words per minutes and 93% accuracy. Yay! ^o^ Melvin gave it a try. He got 94% accuracy, and he's so proud of it. Guess what? 53 words per minute. ;_____;

Uncle! If you let me type at 53 words per minutes, I can score 120% accuracy! *rolls eyes*

I swear I wasn't the one who did this.

CMSK next. Ewwwwww...

Stupid lecturer gave us this ball to throw around. Whoever has the ball need to present an article, then throw it to someone else so as to sabotage him or her to present his or her article. I borrowed Jian Shun's file and put it on the table in front of me. Later, Shi Hui attempted to throw the ball at me. Instinctively, I grabbed Jian Shun's file like a shield and rammed it away, where it landed on Jin Yao's table. Jin Yao took it and threw it at me, but I dodged by a hair's breathe.

And Kok Keong ended up retrieving the ball and giving it to me. -________-

That's mainly the only interesting part. The rest are mainly crap and bullshit. I regret the fact that I was unable to fall asleep. Next Sunday night, I game from 10pm to 8am.

Oh yeah, there was a funny bit though. Khai Ming said this about smoking: "Smoking is an AoE poison that can affect surrounding units." XD! He plays too much games, lmao.

Monday is over at long last!! :D

I ended up getting myself a new blog banner. XD!

By learning pain, you can become a person who can be kind to others

2008-07-27T17:00:00.002+08:00

Your hand that I held searched for some simple kindness
Do you remember
By learning pain, you can become a person who can be kind to others
Drive your Life

Because I'm rather bored, I decided to compile all of my current MSN display pictures into one big gallery. XD

The background is a picture of Syaoran as depicted in the volume cover of Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 22, with transparency set to 30%, but not like you can see anyway. XP

I like to divert your attention to Vernon's display picture and nick, where it says "[tania is pretty and awesome]". XD!

By the way, I asked Vernon, and he said Tania is the one in the center in his display picture.

Looks like bub is up to something.

I'd aim for that light, which I searched for with you

2008-07-26T13:30:00.001+08:00

When I look up at the sky that peeks from the crack between clouds
I change our bond into courage and depart on a journey now
No matter what would be waiting ahead of this
I'd aim for that light, which I searched for with you

It's rather depressing in my opinions if you have to go back to school to attend CCA on Saturdays. T_T

Went to school at 12pm to attend Japanese language lab with Aaron. Learnt that in Japanese, a table is known as "tsukue". -.- Went off halfway because I had to attend the ichigo daifuku making session. For some reason, Aaron tagged along with me, even though he didn't sign up. Lol.

Was supposed to meet up with Justin and Vernon before going together, but Vernon was late, so Justin and Aaron decided to go ahead first. I waited for about fifteen minutes, and Vernon came, wearing white. Hmmm, strange, I was expecting him to wear black, which was why I wore white (contrast pl0x? XD). Needless to say, I was pretty shocked at him wearing white, since he wears black 24/7, lmao.

He must have received a serious mental trauma or depression or something like that. Maybe he just confessed to a girl but got rejected.

Ichigo daifuku, hmmm. Quite easy to make, apparently. You just mix flour, sugar and water together, then you stir. Then you heat, and you stir. Then you wait for it to cool down and solidify, then take them, use them to wrap red soy paste and strawberries up, and you can just eat it! o.O

Here are some photos.

Justin holding the ichigo daifuku that he just finished making in his hand.

Justin stirring the mixture of flour, sugar and water.

A close-up of him stirring. Was difficult to prevent Aaron and Vernon from thinking dirty, those dirty-minded assholes. :P

Our finished products! XD

Apparently they looked plain, so we decorated them with leftover strawberries. XD

Picture taken from a distance.

Lmao, smiley face.

Taken with colours inverted. XD!

Our tables after we are done looked as if we had a flour-throwing fight or something. o.O
Sigh... While Vernon and Aaron get to go home, Justin and I, just because we are in the anime and manga subcommittee... has to go and learn how to dance the Hare Hare Yukai. Sigh... /facepalm

To be honest, now that I'm forced to learn how to do the dance, I'm starting to hate myself. Why? Let me quote two of my blog posts.

"I'm falling in love with the Hare Hare Yukai dance, as featured in the ending of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, lol. The dance is so cute, the song is so cute, the girls are so cute... XD"
-Here Comes The Preliminaries!! VIII

"Second period was VL, but the teacher was talking to us about how we need to get a class video and a performance for Graduation Day. Vernon wants someone to go up and do the Real Emotion dance in the beginning of Final Fantasy X-2 for the performance, lol, but I want a Hare Hare Yukai dance!! :D :D"
-And we get our Preliminary Results back!

Ugh. /facepalm

Justin told me that he is never ever going to listen to Hare Hare Yukai ever again. I can understand his mental trauma.

It was a pretty big shock in my opinions that when Justin and I went there, there were only the two of us and Castillo. So I was like, "Oh my God, what the fuck? A Hare Hare Yukai dance with three guys, and only three guys?! D:"

We started learning the first half, and since Castillo was in the center (while Justin and I were at the side), we decided to make him Haruhi. :P Then, since in the first half, Mikuru came out in front while Haruhi goes to the back and push Yuki off, I decided that I don't wanna be Mikuru (can't be bothered to learn extra dance steps XP), so I stood on the right and be Yuki instead, while Justin becomes Mikuru.

Castillo and I always laugh out loud as he comes over and pushes me off behind. XD!

Still, I rather be Kyon. ;_;

Reason one: He, along with Itsuki, only appears in the second half, so I don't need to dance for the first half. :D

Reason two: No thanks, I rather not be Itsuki. ^_^"

Reason three: He has a sword! A freaking sword! A freaking badass sword!! I don't know, must be kinda difficult to dance in freaking armour though.

Reason four: He does a facepalm during the middle of the dance! XD (Well, in the normal ending of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, at least :3)

Reason five: Hare Hare Yukai - Kyon's Version rocks. :D It was downright hilarious. :3

Reason six: Yare yare. Enough said.

Since when is there cavalry, or in fact, even horses, in One Piece? o.O

Lol, I met a really cute girl named Amelia in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, and managed to get her to join me! :D

And Eirika finally met up with her brother, Ephraim. Something seems rather weird here.

Argh! Who gave Ephraim that stool to stand on!! Shouldn't it be more like this? XD!

Lord Saradomin's crusader will never give up.

2008-07-25T20:04:00.002+08:00

Was playing RuneScape today, when Slims wanted to go to God Wars Dungeon. Rabri, Paws, Chris and I tagged along with him. We intended to kill General Graardor of Bandos, so we have to kill forty followers of Bandos to gain entrance.

We were out there killing level 109 orks...

...while there were behind us killing level 47 hobgoblins. =.=

Paws disappeared halfway. He logged out and never came back again. -.-

Finally, with each of us having fourty kills, we marched into the general's room. We sorely underestimated him. Damn it. The pace of the battle was so fast that I was simply overwhelmed continously eating sharks and watching my hitpoints, so I ran around the room with my Auto-Retaliate on. General Graardor started hitting me 40's, and I soon died. Slims and Rabri teleported away after, while Chris died with me.

Sigh... While Chris died with nothing fairly important, I lost about 500k worth of stuff... Helmet of Neitiznot, Firemaking Cape, Amulet of Glory, Holy Book, Barrows Gloves, Dragon Boots, Ring of Wealth, Ectophial... Sigh...

Rabri cheered me up with this sentence: "Lord Saradomin's crusader will never give up." XD

Oh well.

Junk clue. =.=

I've started playing Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. The female protagonist, Eirika, is cute. Oh, and her combat style reminds me of Lyndis from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword. XD

I laughed my ass off knowing that the male protagonist, who is also Eirika's brother, is none other than this guy named... Ephraim!! Hah!! XD The shortest one with the stupid face!

ROFL! XD

And how come this just reminds me of something that happened in my past...? Hmmmm....

Nice chapter cover for Naruto chapter 410! :D

Got my 'O' level testimonial today :3

2008-07-24T20:03:00.005+08:00

Got back my 'O' level testimonial today, but I'll talk more about it later.

Had Storyboarding lesson today. Storyboarding = Reading Fullmetal Alchemist for four whole hours straight. -.- The lecturer was teaching about Adobe Photoshop, but unfortunately, Photoshop did not interest me, so I ended up reading manga for four hours straight. -.- Sebastian, who was sitting in the row in front of me, was playing some strange little curious game involving drawing shapes to hit a red shape (often circle, but sometimes square) into a flag, and I would always laugh at his often-disatrous attempts. XD

Realized that there was no APEL lesson, so most people left school and went back home, since we only have a PRSP lecture left. Aaron and I went to the library for a short while, then we took bus 8 home.

Met up with Jasmine at Ngee Ann Secondary School to collect our 'O' level testimonials together. ^^

Well now, take a look at what my testimonial says. :3

In his years in the school, Chua Wei Liang has proven to be a motivated and discliplined student who has a keen desire to do well. He was qualified for the Ministry of Education Edusave Merit Bursary Award in 2004 and 2005 for achieve good results.

Wei Liang was an enthusiastic member of the Scouts throughout his years in the school. He acquired the World Scout Badge and the Scout Standard Badge in 2005 and attended many training courses and camps. As a member of the Scouts, he proved to be responsible and committed in carrying out his duties. He represented the school in competition organised by the Scouts Head Quarters, and rose to the position of Assistant Patrol Leader in 2006.

Wei Liang was a member of the Innovation and Entrepreneurship class team in 2007 and helped to collate suggestions and ideas from classmates for school improvement. He participated actively in many class activities and student-initiated activities. He worked well with members of the class to put up dance items for both the school's Aesthetics and Physical Exercise programme and at the 2007 Graduation Day Concert. He also participated in community service projects like Fostering Innovation and Enterprise Spirit Through Activities (FIESTA) and Outdoor Learning Experience (OLE) to raise funds for charity. He played an integral part in promoting class spirit and cohesiveness as the class managed to clinch many awards like the Best Classroom Design and BEST Secondary 3 class in 2006.

Hardworking and upright, he is a reliable pupil who can be entrusted with tasks. His diligence and confidence will definitely be assets to him in his future endeavours.

Sounds damn nice, right? XD It made me laughed out loud in real life though. Why? Well, you will know after I add in my own comments. ;D Comments are in brackets. :3

In his years in the school, Chua Wei Liang has proven to be a motivated (Motivated? When I can be found sleeping in the lessons of eight out of nine subjects, with the only subject I don't sleep during lesson being History, because our History teacher is the Disclipline Master? XD) and discliplined (Me? Discliplined? Man, I hope you are seriously kidding. On the other hand, I'm defiant, and I'm proud of my defiance :D) student who has a keen desire to do well (Since when do I have a so-called "keen desire to do well" in secondary school? -.- I only wanted to pass all exams, that's all. :\). He was qualified for the Ministry of Education Edusave Merit Bursary Award in 2004 and 2005 for achieve good results (I was? How come I didn't realize it? XD Meh, must have forgotten).

Wei Liang was an enthusiastic member ("WAS" is seriously the most honest word in this whole testimonial. I used to be "enthusiastic", and I thoroughly regretted it. What did my enthusiasm bring...? Nah, forget it. I rather not talk about my dark past) of the Scouts throughout his years in the school (No matter how hard I try to struggle towards the light, darkness always pull me back in). He acquired the World Scout Badge (Anyone failing to acquire this FAILS AT LIFE.) and the Scout Standard Badge (Which bloody took me three years when others can take three months? Fuck the leaders' inefficiency.) in 2005 and attended many training courses and camps (and I've got many physical and mental scars and injuries to prove it). As a member of the Scouts (FORMER! FORMER!! I hereby claim no more allegiance to this cursed organization!), he proved to be responsible (Responsible? Yeah, right.) and committed in carrying out his duties (If you assign me a duty to slack, then I'll show you commitment. Otherwise, fuck off). He represented the school in competition organised by the Scouts Head Quarters (I did? o.O When?), and rose to the position of Assistant Patrol Leader in 2006 (I apologize to Ephraim for the fact that as a Patrol Leader, he was assigned an assistant TALLER than him *shifty eyes*).

Wei Liang was a member of the Innovation and Entrepreneurship class team in 2007 (I was? Oh yeah, I was, with Vernon) and helped to collate suggestions and ideas from classmates for school improvement (I'd be honest - I didn't at all. I threw all the job to the three girls in the I&E class team *shifty eyes*). He participated actively in many class activities and student-initiated activities (I did? Are you sure? I think it's more like I participated because I wasn't given a choice otherwise ^^"). He worked well with members of the class to put up dance items for both the school's Aesthetics and Physical Exercise programme and at the 2007 Graduation Day Concert (Lmao???). He also participated in community service projects like Fostering Innovation and Enterprise Spirit Through Activities (FIESTA) (I don't remember ever raising any funds during FIESTA at all. All I remember is me and Vernon running around... o.O) and Outdoor Learning Experience (OLE) (Oh yeah, going around collecting newspapers, and specifically helping girls to carry the heavy newspapers. I remember that. :P Blog post here. XD) to raise funds for charity. He played an integral part in promoting class spirit and cohesiveness (ME? You're JOKING!) as the class managed to clinch many awards like the Best Classroom Design (We did? Anyway, I am proud to admit I took no part in painting our classroom) and BEST Secondary 3 class in 2006 (We were? I didn't know until now. Yay.).

Hardworking (Me? Hardworking? Can you say that honestly with a straight face? -.-) and upright (Upright? ^^ Yay! FOR GREAT JUSTICE! XD), he is a reliable (Me? Reliable? Look at my face. Do I look like I'm reliable...?) pupil who can be entrusted with tasks (Yeah, I dare you to give it a try. Entrust me with a task. -.-). His diligence (Diligence? Yeah, I am diligent at trying to fall asleep in class, I guess) and confidence (:D) will definitely be assets to him in his future endeavours (I still think that my strength and courage would be more of assets in future... what's that word?).

LOL! XD

Bond

2008-07-23T14:23:00.001+08:00

I won't forget your smile; I'll protect it
What I'll grasp is a sparkling world

When I look up at the sky that peeks from the crack between clouds
I change our bond into courage and depart on a journey now
No matter what would be waiting ahead of this
I'd aim for that light, which I searched for with you

I won't forget your smile; I'll protect it
I'll even overcome the river of space and time and become stronger
I won't leave you; our hands are joined eternally
Where we'll make our way to is a sparkling world

I wonder where you are, what kind of dreams you're having now
Because when morning comes, I simply wish to be by your side
Having been able to meet you- If that's not a coincidence
Then I'll grip onto my strong feelings and dash

I won't be lost; I embrace your smile
My falling tears vanish into the rain and I become strong
I won't lose them; my thoughts are for eternity
What I'll grasp is a sparkling world

I won't change; on this road that continues forever
I'm able to only look forward and go running

I won't forget your smile; I'll protect it
I'll even overcome the river of space and time and become stronger
I won't leave you; our hands are joined eternally
Where we'll make our way to is a sparkling world

忘れないさ君の笑顔守るよ
掴み取るのはきらめく世界

雲の切れ間から覗く空を見上げたら
キズナを勇気に変えて今旅に出る
たとえこの先何が待ってたとしても
君と探したあの光を目指して

忘れないさ君の笑顔守るよ
ときの川さえ越えてもっと強くなる
離さないよ繋いだ手は永遠に
たどり着くのはきらめく世界

今君は何処でどんな夢を見てるだろう
朝が来る時はただ傍に居たいから
君と出会えたそれが偶然じゃないと
強い気持ちを握り締めて駆けるよ

迷わないよ君の笑顔抱きしめ
落ちる涙は雨に消して強くなる
失くさないよこの思いは永遠に
掴み取るのはきらめく世界

変わらないよずっと続くこの道
前だけを見て走って行ける

忘れないさ君の笑顔守るよ
ときの川さえ越えてもっと強くなる
離さないよ繋いだ手は永遠に
たどり着くのはきらめく世界

要守护你那永远不忘的笑容啊
得抵触那闪耀的世界

从云片之间仰望天空点点
在现今的旅程中连系已变成了勇气
若果有甚么在这之前已经等待著我
直指找寻你的那光芒

要守护你那永远不忘的笑容啊
越过了时间的河川就会变得更强
抓紧的手永远都不会放开了
要到达那闪耀的世界

现在你在哪里做著怎样的梦
因为在早上来临的时刻我只想留在你身旁
遇见你并不是偶然
干脆握紧强烈的心情往前冲吧

要拥抱你那不会迷失的笑容
流下的泪在雨中消失后就会变得更强
永远也不会失去的这份思念
得抵触那闪耀的世界

一直走着的这条道路不曾改变
看着前方走着就够了

要守护你那永远不忘的笑容啊
越过了时间的河川就会变得更强
抓紧的手永远都不会放开了
要到达那闪耀的世界

Lol, what should I put for my title?

2008-07-22T18:08:00.004+08:00

Yay, I get to go to school one hour later than usual today, because it is currently e-learning week for WDS, so we don't have to go to WDS tutorial for Tuesday. :D

Went to school at 10am for INCG lab session. First half of the lesson had us messing around with this sound-editing software named Audacity. Rather fun, actually. I went to download D-tecnoLife, and decided to try speeding it up by 10%. Surprisingly, the pitch got higher, and it sounded as if it was a girl who sang it. XD And there I was thinking, "Hey, 'she' sounds cute!" So I ended up saving it and uploading it to YouTube...

The second half had us messing around with... Torque Game Builder. -.- A over complicated software that simply turns beginners off. That's my opinions at least. Took one whole hour just to get a bloody fish moving under the control of the keyboard. Yeah, advanced users would like the flexibility, but the beginners wouldn't even bother touching this thing if I were they.

I got bored and ended up running over elsewhere to read Fullmetal Alchemist. :3

Went to Design School to eat lunch with Kenny, Aaron, Jia Hao and Khai Ming. Jian Shun, Jurene, Qiyang and Yong Han came to the same place as us for their lunch as well, lmao.

The five of us went to the library next. I started reading Java again, while Kenny, Jia Hao and Khai Ming took turns playing Team Fortress 2 on Khai Ming's laptop. Then, Kenny played against a Brutal AI in Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath. It took him more effort than in the past to win, because the units he used to keep spamming got nerfed in a patch, lmao.

We went to C. Maths lecture, because the lecturer told us yesterday that we'd receive our Boolean algebra test papers back at the end of the lecture. Was reading Kenny's Command & Conquer 3: Tiberian Wars booklet to kill time during the lecture. XP

The lecture ended surprisingly early, in half an hour's time. Got my test paper back. 26 out of 26. Full marks. Ooooooh. :3

Went to PRSP tutorial. Was damn bored. The lecturer was teaching about arrays and methods, and I was like, "Meh, I learnt about those weeks ago..." To kill time, I was typing up some Java codings and writing programs as they wanted us to do in the tutorial, while chatting on MSN Messenger. :3

The lecturer probably thinks he's funny or something. I seriously don't understand... WHY THE FUCK DOES HE WANT TO TURN OFF THE BLOODY LIGHTS? Bloody hell... Typing Java code in a dark computer lab just seems so wrong to me, especially when the only lights are the lights from our computer monitors... The freaking mood is just like that of a LAN shop, so why the heck am I typing Java programs? And yet, if I go over and play Warcraft III, I'll get scolded and get into trouble. How is there justice in this world?

Know what? Screw global warming. Screw the rising oil prices. For fuck's sake, please TURN ON THE LIGHTS! God damn it. -.-

I finished four of the five questions in sixty-eight minutes, couldn't be bothered to do the last, and went to read Fullmetal Alchemist. The lecturer let us go half an hour early. Yay. -.-

No school tomorrow, yay! w00t! w00t!

Okay. Technically, there is school tomorrow. E-learning week for WDS this week, so no WDS lab session nor lecture tomorrow. Left are CMATHS and PRSP lectures, which are, bleh...

So I might as well not go. :3

Yay, I just completed Hector's story on Normal Mode in Fire Emblem! :D I am going to try Hector Hard Mode soon, lol. :3

Favorite character: Sain. XD

Lyn + Sol Katti = Final boss PWNAGE.

Tch. Junk clue.

CMSK makes me hate Mondays.

2008-07-21T16:53:00.005+08:00

For those of you who hates Mondays because the day of doom signifies the end of your blissful and wonderful weekends, take comfort knowing the fact that at least you guys do not need wasting two hours of your bloody time attending some shitty, stupid lesson that you cannot kill by trying to fall asleep. -.-

Oh God damn it, CMSK is really making me start to hate Mondays. And when I said "hate", I really mean hate.

First lesson was INCG lecture. Learnt about sounds and audio in game. Hmmm, interesting. Unfortunately, it pains me to say this, but audio has never been my speciality. ^_^"

CMATHS tutorial next. Was basically yawning in boredom because Set Theory is just so easy for someone who has already learnt about them two years ago.

Went to Kenny's house with Aaron, Khai Ming, Jia Hao and of course, Kenny. Logged onto MSN Messenger at Kenny's house, chat with Kamel, and this is how the conversation goes. -.-

Samy [So many games to play - So little time to play.] says:
I'm at my friend's house after school :3
Kamel says:
pft i havent done that since like 3rd grade
Kamel says:
because i have no friends ;_;
Samy [So many games to play - So little time to play.] says:
uh......

Khai Ming, Jia Hao and I brought our laptops along to school, so the five of us were able to play a free-for-all match of Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath. Me, being a noob at C&C3, just camps at my base, turtles and builds lots of Mammoth Tanks. XD

Khai Ming got wiped first, because Kenny was ganging up on him. Then, Kenny focused on trying to wipe Aaron out, which pissed him so much that he started shouting and swearing, and focused all of his efforts and attention on defeating Kenny. Jia Hao joined in Aaron's side because he knew how much threat Kenny would be if he was not defeated, and I jumped in for the fun of it, so the three of us were carrying out offensive strikes against Kenny, with Aaron attacking top, and Jia Hao and I attacking bottom. Needless to say, Kenny was the second one to fell. :P

I love to hear Aaron shout whenever I fire a bloody Ion Cannon at his base. XD! I also love Aaron's scream when Jia Hao took his Drone Ship and crushed Aaron's Mothership with it. XD! I was watching the event happening with Kenny on Khai Ming's computer (Khai Ming was sitting with me at Kenny's dining table, and since he was already defeated, he became a spectator and had the fog of war lifted, so he can view the entire map and see what everyone is doing), and all of us cheered out loud when Aaron's Mothership exploded, except for Aaron obviously. XD

Jia Hao came over to my base later and wiped out all of my Mammoth Tanks, so I got bored, said "gg ^^" in game and sold all of my structures. XD The game ended very shortly just after I gave up, with Aaron winning.

:3 I'm BlitzHero, Kenny is cuddling, Jia Hao is MugOfKane, Aaron is im dead and Khai Ming is ?. XD

We started a second game, with Aaron, Khai Ming and I teaming up against Kenny and Jia Hao. Jia Hao harrassed Aaron's base at the beginning of the game, and Aaron got so frustrated that he quit. The control of Aaron's base was given to me, but since I can't multitask and control two bases (since I'm such a noob at C&C3), I sold all of his structures. :D!

Khai Ming, seeing that he can't win (teamed up with a noob against two pros? O.o), quitted as well, so I sold his structures before giving up selling all of mine. XD

I took a photo outside Kenny's window as well. :3

Fuck CMSK. Bloody waste of my two hours.

Back to playing RuneScape for me now. :3

So cute...!! XD

Killed by a fucking GIRAFFE.

2008-07-20T16:48:00.002+08:00

Killed by a fucking GIRAFFE.

Fucking God damn it. I'm fucking quitting WoW. -.-

Back to the RuneScape that I love so much.

Saradomin Blessed Dragonhide Body, yay! :D

Lol I wonder

2008-07-19T14:08:00.001+08:00

Lol, I wonder what happens when Fire Emblem becomes much more addictive to me than World of Warcraft. I could play Fire Emblem all the way to 3am and not get bored (sleepy though :P), but I couldn't stand two hours of World of Warcraft without a terrible headache, boredom and the urge to stop playing?

Seriously, Fire Emblem is a good tactical Role Playing Game. If you guys haven't try it out yet, then I strongly recommend that you go try it. ;D Thanks to Kamel for sending me the ROM. XD

One Piece chapter 507 is exciting, hahaha, it got me looking forward to the next chapter. :D One thing to note, I can't resist humming Jungle P whenever I realize that a new One Piece chapter is out. :P

The chapter cover looks great, haha. Nami-swan and Robin-chwan look so sexy in them.

Lol, Roger Pirate Crew found the whole entire Blank Century, and Robin's heart is beating "doki doki" just like the girls in shoujo manga when they fell in love. XD

One word to describe this whole entire page: Pwnage.

Just look at Zoro staring at the Biblicard. I think that's a sign of indication that he's bound to get lost.

Brook: Indeed. I think I'll just play dead.

WIN.

LMAO AT KIZARU!! XD

Lol I'm getting damn lazy nowadays

2008-07-18T13:25:00.005+08:00

Today is a Friday, so by right we don't have to go to school, but yet, today is a Friday that drags us back to school, because we have got the INCG make-up lesson from two weeks ago on this day. I should probably also mention that today is Jurene's birthday.

Went to school with a "Why the heck must I come here...? I wanna sleep, damn it." mood, and the first thing I did when I went into the lab was to check if Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 194 is out. :P Well, not a very exciting chapter. The text in the last page saying "Next week, Tsubasa will be taking a break so that the authors can collect data. We hope you will wait patiently for its return in Issue 35." had me swearing so loud that Wan Xiang, sitting behind me, turned around to look at my computer screen to figure out what is wrong.

During the INCG lesson, we messed around with this software named Avimator. My only complaint? Have the models wear some clothes for fuck's sake!!

To celebrate Jurene's birthday, Jian Shun, Aaron, Qiyang, Yong Han and I went to Tampines Mall after school and caught a movie with her. Kenny and Khai Ming tagged along on the way, haha, but Kenny left when the bus reached his bus stop, and Khai Ming at the Bus Interchange to grab something to eat before going back home.

We went to play the arcade first before the movie. There was a game where the player drives a jeep and runs around on it catching animals with a net, and holy shit, Jian Shun is such a pro in it, lol! Aaron and I also paid $5 each to play House of the Dead 4. We got all the way to the third boss (that motherfucking chainsaw bastard) and died there.

We then watched this Japanese movie named 犬と私の１０の約束 (inu to watashi no juu no yakusoku). Quite a nice, emotional movie about a girl and her dog. The same girl who played as the girl in the Death Note spin-off movie L: Change the WorLd also starred in this movie for during the childhood days of the main character, and again, I must say this: She's cute! XP

The movie was so emotional that I almost cried when the dog died, lmao. Glad I was able to hold my tears, to be honest. ^^ I saw a grown-up sitting at the back row crying, sniffing his nose and wiping his tears with his shirt, and my expression was like...

There is no ~~spoon~~ hidden text.

Went to Swensen's to eat lunch, then to Jian Shun's house to eat Jurene's birthday cake, because Swensen's didn't allow us to take in cakes from outside, rofl. Qiyang left after lunch, so I wondered why. Turns out he bought a cake totally covered with chocolate, both inside and outside.

It was so sweet that it simply overkilled me.

Played some One Piece Grand Battle Rush, and then we left. :3

While this expression of Naruto in Naruto chapter 409 literally made me laugh my ass off, I realized something after some thought: Doesn't Naruto just look exactly like me every single time every single day before dinner?

Yeah, my mother's cooking sucks, I know. Just because it has been a long time since I last complained about it doesn't mean it no longer sucks.

Bleach chapter 318 bores me. Ichigo and Ulquiorra stares at each other, talks up a bunch of crap, and liek omfg wtfh stfu gtfo h4x! ...Ulquiorra draws his sword. -.- Blah, big deal. Get on with it.

Barragan: With the boss unable to move, I'll be giving orders. You'd better not... have a problem with that.

Yup, I've been guessing that the old man is the number 1 Espada ever since we know who is 4 to 10, and this just reconfirmed my theory.

Stark: Sure, why not? *gets kicked by subordinate* OW!!

Rofl...

Yamamoto: Fools. Do you really think... we'd leave such important locations unprotected? I've stationed... skilled fighters there.

And just when I was all in awe and surprise and wondering who those elite skilled fighters are, I flipped to the next page, and...

-______-
Hisagi Shuuhei, Kira Izuru, Yumichika Ayasegawa and Madarame Ikkaku............ -.-

Tch.

Lol, while playing World of Warcraft today, I got lost in Orgrimmar, and guess who did I find?

Thrall! Son of Durotar and Warchief of the Horde! XD

So freaking tired

2008-07-17T18:26:00.002+08:00

Argh!! When the heck is Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 194 coming out? I can't stand the wait any more! And why the hell is it when both Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and Fairy Tail are published in the same magazine, but Fairy Tail gets scanned and translated, and you couldn't even find the RAW for Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE? Holy banana, this is just so wrong. Sorry to Fairy Tail fans, but Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE pwns a lot more (I myself pretty enjoy Fairy Tail too though).

Storyboarding lesson's venue changed for some reason. I got a SMS on the bus on the way to school from the lecturer, with the message including this part "Pls help inform the rest.". I was like, "Meh." Apparently, the others didn't share the same reaction as me. 17 minutes later, having arrived at TP and walking to IIT School, I received one from Kenny.

I took the lift from the first floor to the sixth floor, and halfway through at the third floor, Aaron and Jurene boarded the lift. The three of us headed to the new venue together, and just when I got a seat, I received one message alerting me about the change of venue from none other than Jurene herself, merely two minutes after Kenny informed me. That's not all. Yong Han SMSed me the exact same message five minutes later, and Wan Xiang four minutes after that. I have to note that I am already waiting in the new venue.

Got exactly five same SMSes telling me the exact same thing just because the lecturer added "Pls help inform the rest.". Ah. The power of the word "pls". No wonder you see a lot of noobs saying "phr33 st0f pl0x" when you see them following you.

I have only one word to describe the Storyboarding lesson - boring. The lecturer called people for one-on-one consultation about their stories, and guess what? I'm lucky number one. What the heck? I don't even get this lucky when it comes to lottery! Oh well. She was complaining that my story could be too long. And she was the one who wants us to do stories for games.

Please, let me know if you happen to play a Role Playing Game that you could, provided that you read through all the conversational text and not skip through any cutscenes or tutorials, finish and complete in less than twelve hours. Your cooperation is deeply appreciated.

I didn't know how I managed to finish burning the remaining four hours, but meh. I started reading Fullmetal Alchemist out of boredom. Interesting, but not that much that it simply attracts me, unfortunately. Unlike Naruto, I must admit. When I started reading that manga, I almost could not stop. XD

Went to IIT School (ugh. Just ugh.) to eat lunch with Aaron, Jia Hao, Khai Ming and Kenny. Jian Shun, Jurene, Yong Han and Qiyang also came to IIT School to eat, although we were sitting at different tables. After finishing our lunch, the nine of us went to APEL lesson next, which again, consists of our care person joking around with us, complaining about the tough workload that we give him (including creating trouble so that all of our lecturers are tempted to go look for him), complaining that no one went to the games room yesterday (well, only four, namely Kenny, Aaron, Khai Ming and Jia Hao, but they left after thirty minutes), you know, the standard usual.

The nine of us left together because we were interested in playing World of Warcraft on a private server together, lol. I initially wanted to be a healing tank, a Blood Elf Paladin, but Yong Han already is one, and he seems rather unhappy at there being a second Paladin, lol, so I switched to being a Warrior. Jian Shun advised that I be a Fury Warrior, so Orc is out for me. He suggested Undead, but ewwww, so I ended up becoming a Tauren Warrior. XD

Went to Jian Shun's house to borrow his World of Warcraft disc and his thumb drive containing the Burning Crusade installation file and patch. The two of us took bus 8 along with Yong Han, Qiyang and Jia Hao. Got the two items at Jian Shun's house, went home and installed World of Warcraft, along with Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath which Kenny lent me (sure took me long enough).

Oh well, end of blog. Time for me to go play World of Warcraft. XP

What I'll grasp is a sparkling world

2008-07-16T11:43:00.002+08:00

Went to school for WDS tutorial today. Learnt more about Flash. Spotlight was pretty easy. Same goes for masking. Too bad I don't have Adobe Flash on my computer, so even if I do know how to do them, I actually can't. The last one about making an object move in a certain path confused me though, and when the lecturer threatened to not let us go if we could not do it, I hired Kenny to do it, and order that he finished it in five minutes.

Taking this as a challenge, he told me to take out my stopwatch and time him. He finished it in 49 seconds. T___T Oh well. With that bloody butterfly now flying around in my screen (set the animation to 120 frames per second that it looked as if the butterfly is high on drugs), I got the hell out. ^^

Murphy's law: Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time, in the worst possible way.
GET's law: Whenever something goes wrong, Jonathan Chee will pop out of nowhere and confront you.

And so a friend from C204 told me. I was in disbelief, but now, I think I must admit, I have to agree with him. Michael, Shi Hui, and don't know who else were playing cards behind, and the course coordinator just jumped out of nowhere, caught them, dragged Michael out for some talk, and in the end when he releases Michael back, told him to meet him at his office. Poor Michael.

At the end of the tutorial, Aaron and I were about to set off to look for our care person so I can ask him a question about Java. Turns out we didn't even have to start our search, he was just outside the lab corridor, lecturing Michael about playing cards during the lesson just now. XD

Aaron, Kenny, Khai Ming and Jia Hao came along with me back to the computer lab to enquire about Java, and I also printed my Storyboarding story concept there conveniently. XD

After that, with only lectures left remaining in my timetable, I went home. Oh well. :3 PRSP lecture? What, arrays? Pfft! I learnt that weeks ago! C. Maths lecture? What, sets? Pffft! I learnt that years ago!! WDS lecture? What? Pffft! I can just download and read the lecture slides later!

No way am I going to waste five hours in school when I can be home, blogging, playing computer games, and finishing my Storyboarding homework. -.-

Ta-dah for now. Still waiting for Faizal to send me the class photos we took on Monday.

All the kids said, "On this windless night, we're going to make a difference!"

2008-07-15T20:32:00.007+08:00

Almost couldn't climb out of bed this morning. ^^"

WDS tutorial started this morning. Yawn. I wrote up a simple little Java program that generates randomly either 0 or 1, prints the number, then keeps repeating (with the effective help of a simple while loop), and then stared at the resulting ones and zeroes that flooded the screen. Pretty.

I did that in INCG tutorial up next too. Got caught by my lecturer, who asked to see the code, saw that I used "blah" as my method name (meh, it was a simple program I was gonna delete later anyway), and I got lectured for that. XD And yay!! My thumb drive came back to me, exactly three weeks after I lost it! :D Yay!! ^o^ Apparently, some guy found it, took a lot at the documents inside, found my name and returned it to my care person. :3 w00t!!

I attached my thumb drive to my pencil box. In other words, if I ever lose my thumb drive again, I'm saying goodbye to my whole entire pencil box. ^^

Did a two-hundred word synopsis of my INCG assignment 2, which is due two weeks from now. And of all the topics, I went to do on... Real-Time Strategy games. Ugh. I'm sort of regretting it now. What can I talk about Real-Time Strategy games when the only one I dare say I'm quite good at is Warcraft III? I should have picked some other topic. Ugh.

Oh well. けれど、自分で决めた事だ。たとえ、その心が戻らなくても、必ず、守ると！ (However, it's what I decided on my own. Even if that heart doesn't return, I will definitely protect her!)

We also did Torque Game Builder, which was unnecessarily confusing in my opinions.

Aaron and I went out to McDonald's for lunch after that. Then we went back and met up with Faizal, who still wants to take pictures of me messing around with Java in the computer lab. We went to a lab, and conveniently, Jian Shun, Yong Han, Jurene and Qiyang are all there. Poor Qiyang, who would have knew that he was Faizal's secondary one and two classmate? Now he got dragged down to become Faizal's victim along with me. I can only blame the fact that he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. XD

Typing Java code in Notepad++, yay.

Typing Java code in Notepad, boo.

Faizal wanted to take some photos of me encountering errors, so I made the stupid program divide by zero, immediately causing a fatal error. And as if encountering a so-called fatal error wasn't enough, he wanted me to do a facepalm. Ugh, fine. /facepalm

So after Faizal took some pictures of me typing Java code, staring at the screen and watching all the ones and zeroes fly up, which has now become by my specialty, haha. Why am I told to pose as if I'm troubled when I intended to make ones and zeroes appear? Welcome to the digital world.

He also wanted to take photos of my interest, specifically of me reading manga (specifically One Piece, where Luffy does a Gomu Gomu no Bazooka) and going all "Wow!!" at the screen (Faizal wanted it that way. If I knew, I'd pick Luffy doing a Gomu Gomu no Jet Gatling Gun, which is ten thousand times much more pwnage. Okay, Gomu Gomu no Bazooka by itself is pretty pwnage anyway. :P).

As if one isn't enough...

He took two.

Oh well, better than Qiyang, slamming his head on his laptop's keyboard like he's going emo.

Went with Faizal to IIT Canteen, since he hasn't had his lunch yet, leaving Aaron with Jian Shun's gang, and got a free cup of coca-cola as reward from Faizal. Yay! ^o^ Thanks, Faizal! :D After lunch, we went to the printing shop, where Faizal left his memory card. He couldn't find it inside the shop, came out all emo, searched his bag, can't find it, continues to be emo and so for around twenty minutes before Jasmine came.

Faizal then went back to the shop, and there the memory card is. -.- It was the school's, by the way, and he lent it, that was why he went so emo. XP And apparently, in the printing shop, there were two aunties, one "nice and helpful", and another the complete opposite, according to Faizal. The first time we went there, it was the second auntie, who didn't bother searching much, and just told Faizal no. He went back the second time and the first auntie found his memory card for him and returned it. Faizal said, "Thank you.", and guess what?

The second auntie replied, "You're welcome."

Rofl! XD Needless to say, Faizal got pretty pissed off. He told us that once he saw the second auntie turned her head back, he even flashed a dual middle finger. XD

Jasmine just sent me the picture we took using her camera. ^^

Faizal took a few photos for his project. I wonder what the guy at the background is up to. :P

Later, when I saw Kenny, Jia Hao and Khai Ming leaving out of the library and about to go to PRSP (the three of us were sitting at the bench outside the library), I went to join them. Looks like the three of them didn't go to C. Maths lecture as well (hey! They are teaching Set Theory now! Sets!! I learnt that two years ago!! D:), lol.

Was so bored during PRSP tutorial that I went to Google Image Search, got a picture of a Blue Screen of Death, slapped it onto Microsoft PowerPoint and told Kenny I got BSoD'd. XD I also went to Wikipedia and read up on heatsinks and overclocking. :3

Took bus 291 home with Melvin, Aaron and Kenny. Fuyuan and Kok Keong boarded the bus at the next bus stop, lmao.

Java, Java and more Java

This blog post is solely for my own references. You don't have to read it. Instead, I don't want you to read it.

You can have a variable in your class that all methods in the class can read, use, initialize, access and change. To do that, declare the variable outside the methods, with the keyword "static". For example, "static int blah = 0;". (I have no creativity with naming. ^_^") In that way, all methods inside that class can use that variable, and yay, no more getting confused with parameters! (I'm such a loser.)

You can also do this with objects, so that you can use the object anywhere in any methods throughout the class. For example, "static Scanner scKey = new Scanner (System.in);". (Sue me, I'm lazy and no longer colouring syntax -.-)

I don't know just how the hell this works to verify if you key in a number or not, but it's sexy.

Yay, no more exceptional handling!! XD

The following are Scanner Class Methods that Check for Valid Input Values.

hasNextBoolean()
hasNextByte()
hasNextDouble()
hasNextFloat()
hasNextInt()
hasNextLong()
hasNextShort()

I was going to make a joke here about having to take a Math class to fully appreciate the Math class, or how you'd better stay away from the Math class if you didn't do so well in Math class, or how if you're on the football team, maybe you can get someone to do the Math class for you. But it seemed too easy, so I decided not to. XD

Mathematical Functions Provided by the Math Class

Math.abs(argument) - Returns the absolute value of the argument. In laymen's terms, positive numbers remain positive, while negative numbers become positive too.
Math.cbrt(argument) - Returns the cube root of the argument. For example, 8 gives you 2, 27 gives you 3, and 64 gives you 4.
Math.exp(argument) - Returns the exponential function of the argument. In laymen's terms, the return value will be the mathematical constant e (which is 2.71828182845904523536...) to the power of the argument.
Math.hypot(arg1, arg2) - The Pythagoras' theorem states that in any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle). This nifty little function allows you to key in the values of the lengths of two sides that meet at the right angle, and return the length of the hypotenuse. In laymen's terms, it returns the square root of the arg1 squared plus arg2 squared.
Math.log(argument) - Returns the natural logarithm of the argument. In other words, the return value will be equal to log_e(argument), or ln(argument), where e is 2.71828182845904523536...
Math.log10(argument) - Returns the base 10 logarithm of the argument. In other words, the return value will be equal to log₁₀(argument).
Math.max(arg1, arg2) - Compares the two variables and returns the larger of the two arguments.
Math.min(arg1, arg2) - Compares the two variables and returns the larger of the two arguments.
Math.pow(arg1, arg2) - Returns the value of the first argument to the power of the second argument. In other words, the value will be equal to arg1^arg2.
Math.random() - Returns a random number greater than 0 (inclusive) and less than 1 (exclusive). No arguments are needed.
Math.signum(argument) - Checks whether the number is positive, negative or zero, and returns a number accordingly. If the number is positive, it will return 1. If the number is negative, it will return -1. If the number is a zero, it will return 0.
Math.sqrt(argument) - Returns the square root of the argument. For example, 4 gives you 2, 9 gives you 3, and 16 gives you 4.

This statement can be used to generate a random number within a range, where low is the lowest value in the range, and high is the highest value in the range.

int random = (int) (Math.random() * (high - low + 1) + low;

Rounding Functions Provided by the Math Class

Math.ceil(argument) - Rounds up the argument into a whole number and returns it as a double.
Math.floor(argument) - Rounds down the argument into a whole number and returns it as a double.
Math.rint(argument) - Returns a double value that is a whole number closest to the argument. If two integers are equally close, then return the one that is the even number.
Math.round(argument) - Returns a whole number that is closest to the argument. A long will be returned if the argument is a double, and int will be returned if it is a float.

Monday, the start of yet another week.

2008-07-14T19:11:00.001+08:00

Monday, the start of yet another week.

A lecture of INCG started the week off. We learnt about Artificial Intelligence. Hmmm, sounds interesting, but yet complicated at the same time. I laughed at the fact that in life simulation game The Sims, when the people are hungry, they say, "I'm hungry!", which trigger an event that causes surrounding food to silently shout and scream, "Me! Me! Eat me!!", causing the guy to walk over and eat the food up. XD

C. Maths tutorial next. I finished that stupid class test in five minutes and was intending to spend my time slowly checking through, but argh, that stupid Kok Keong was already walking towards the teacher's table and ready to hand up, so I immediately stood up and went to pass mine up as well. -.- In the end, Kenny, Jia Hao, Khai Ming and I had to wait outside the classroom for thirty minutes for Aaron to come out. -.-

We had a three-hours break left, so Aaron, Kenny, Khai Ming, Jia Hao and I went to Business School to eat. After our lunches, we went to the library, and I went to read up about Java, while the others played Team Fortress 2 and Command & Conquer 3 on Khai Ming's laptop. Hmmm, I sure learnt a lot more about Java in the book. I should blog what I learn so I could easily refer to it. :)

CMSK next. =.= Thankfully, it was just a twenty-minute session of "having a lame conversation with five other people and letting the teacher give you a score for your CMSK grade", but still, bleh... =.= CMSK, ewwww... Luckily it was just twenty minutes. Tch. Went to the computer lab with Aaron after that to make use of the scanners there and scanned this letter. XD

Was supposed to meet up with Vernon at 4pm (the time when both of our lessons end), but who knew CMSK would end at 2.20pm...? I went to the library to read up on more Java, but got hungry at 3.30pm, so I went to IIT Canteen and bought some sandwiches, lmao. I then went to camp outside Engineering School, but got bored in five minutes and decided to head to the bookshop to see if any new manga came out.

Repetitively thinking, "Please let there be new manga. Please let there be new manga." as I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw One Piece volume 50 there. :D Without hesitation, I bought it, but only to realize when I reached the counter that... my wallet is totally empty. D: Wow. Paying for a manga using NETS. ):

I must admit, the volume cover is fucking sexy. :D

Zoro with his new, sexy and black katana Shuusui and striking such a nice pose...
Luffy with his new glass armband, biting the burning biblicard that Ace gave him...
Brooke, the skeleton with the afro and the newest member of the Straw Hat Pirates...
XD!

Armed with my new manga, I went back and camped outside Engineering School... but Vernon came before I even finished the first chapter in the volume. -.- The two of us took bus 69 to Tampines Bus Interchange, then went to the arcade in Tampines Mall to play, lol. Both of us paid $10, and we went to play House of the Dead 4, Time Crisis IV, and Initial D. XD

We then went to take the shuttle bus to Ikea, and walked around there boringly, with an hour or so to kill. Finally, in the end, the two of us went to find a sofa and started camping there, with me reading One Piece 50. At long last, after waiting for like an hour or so, we finally see a group of our ex-classmates, including Samuel, Luke, Larry, Faizal, Huiling and Sze Ling.

We went to the restaurant and Ikea, and there she is, sitting down there and waiting for us, ~~our very reason behind our delayed testimonials~~, our dear form teacher last year. Oh, I didn't explain, right?

Our reason for gathering at Ikea was because we wanted to have a gathering with our form teacher, who went to New Zealand to teach (she probably got frustrated and fed up with Singaporean students. Just refer to my blog posts over last year and count how many times I slept during A. Maths and E. Maths lessons ), and whom came back to Singapore for two weeks while they are having school holidays in New Zealand. ^^

Anyway, was a lot of fun hanging around with my ex-classmates. :D Faizal took a lot of pictures on his 7.1 megapixels camera (*drools in jealousy* Mine is only 3.2... D:). Now I'm waiting for him to come online and send me the photos. One of them of Larry had me rolling on the floor laughing out loud. XD

Edit made on 23 July 2008: Now that Faizal has sent me the pictures, here goes. Let it rip!

Larry, in his Temasek Junior College uniform that oh, looks so much just like the uniform they wear in Pasir Ris Secondary School. XP

Luke, a fellow 4R2 classmate of mine who went to a polytechnic (seeing that most of them went to a Junior College and are now still forced to sing the National Anthem, haha). He went to Ngee Ann Polytechnic if memory serves me right, lol.

Me, wearing my spectacles and biting onto a French fry, and black-wearing Vernon teh bub, who let his hair grow long haha.

What was I doing...? o.O

Faizal said that he intended to have this photo make it look like Vernon is the CEO of Giant or something. o.O

From the left, Cheng Kang, Xiang Bin and Cheng Liang. ^^

Ping Chong and Samuel. ^^

See the guy on the extreme right wearing short pants, a pair of spectacles and holding a cup of coca-cola? That's me. XD

Luke's going around and taking a video of everyone saying stuff to Mdm Low. For me, I thanked her for teaching me about Set Theory so I don't have to attend C. Maths lectures now, which is currently teaching the exactly same Set Theory. o.O

ROFLMAO!

Zooming in...

I kinda wonder why Faizal took this... XP

What, Mr. Sean Philip Lim Meng Kuan, ex-President of the Student Council of Ngee Ann Secondary School? A long rank befits a person with a long name, I suppose.

Why the fuck does this photo look like those photos you see on magazines and newspapers accompanying articles regarding interviews with politicians?

Poor Faizal. Not only did he camera got "stolen", we also covered his faces with V-signs. Yes, we. I participated as well.

For this photo, I have no other better caption but this:
Tremble, mortals, and despair!! Doom has come to this world!!
I apologize for my lack of creativity.

Luke's face is basically the epitome of boredom.

Why does Vernon's face just gives off this certain message: "I'm talking on the photo with my girlfriend right now, so can you please fuck off?"

The whole class took not only one photo...

...not two...

...neither three...

...but four photos.

Eh... No comments there. /facepalm

Faizal happened to take three pictures of Cheng Liang and Xiang Bin turning their heads. I took his camera and kept pressing left and right (going to the previous picture and the next picture), so it looks as if they are moving their heads. I took the three pictures and made it into a GIF. XD

Wow, I only realized now the sheer huge number of 4R2 people living in Pasir Ris. When we left, those people living in Pasir Ris, including Vernon and Faizal, went home walking, and then there were only Ping Chong, Kenneth and me left in the bus stop. o.o

Who would have knew that I managed to guess a number between negative two billion and positive two billion in twelve guesses? o.O

And who would have knew that the number would have been the most minimum minus one? XD!

Oooooooh

I'm taking this to school tomorrow and scanning it onto the computer using the scanners in the computer lab there. So proud of this letter. =D!

Edit made on 14 July 2008: Got the letter scanned. XD

By the way, according to Wikipedia, vandalism is the behaviour attributed to the Vandals in respect of culture: ruthless destruction or spoiling of anything beautiful or venerable. Such action includes criminal damage, defacement, graffiti and crass erection of an eyesore.

The following is a list of what I have learnt:

An action as simple as mere kicking can be considered ruthless descruction and spoiling. I wonder if that means that my kicking skills have gotten a lot stronger?
That a green dustbin sitting in the middle of a corridor can be considered beautiful and venerable. Wow! Oh my God! Look at that dustbin!! Holy shit! It's simply... beautiful!! Venerable! Oh yeah!! Magnificent! Wonderful! Subarashii!!
That kicking a dustbin can be considered criminal damage.
That kicking a dustbin can be considered as defacement.
That kicking a dustbin can be considered as graffiti.
That kicking a dustbin can be considered as the crass erection of an eyesore.
And that the sight of a dustbin lying on the floor after it has been kicked can be considered an eyesore.

Meh. Maybe I think too much.

My father who doesn't understand the word "vandalism", kept repeating, "Offence! Offence! Offence!" I think he must be a parrot in his past life or something.

I feel so...... says:
stop kicking dustbins!
I feel so...... says:
kick buckets! jk
I feel so...... says:
jkjkjk

XD! (That's Wei Kai by the way.)

Edit made on 26 July 2008:

How come Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist just reminded me of something that happened in my past...? Hmmmm.... XD

Subete wa God Knows...

2008-07-12T22:33:00.003+08:00

Hmmm, nothing much happened today.

On my way to school today, I saw a car that attracted my attention. It had a little signboard pasted behind it that says, "Don't follow me, I'm lost too." XD And the three alphabets for its vehicle plate, SGS. Hyuu~! Saradomin Godsword! XD

Went to Japanese Language Lab with Aaron. I knew it was 12pm, but Aaron said it was 11am, so I went with him at 11am. Turns out I was correct. -.- Glad I brought along my PRSP textbook to read. Ugh. Java really confuses me. I don't get it with classes and object-oriented design. Oh well.

At the end of the lesson, before we were allowed to leave, we had to answer a question, where are we heading to after the lesson. I chose to answer "library", because there already is an example "I am going to the library." in the notes. XD So I went there, and read the notes, "Watashi wa toshokan ni ikimasu." Byebye! XD

Aaron and I headed to the library, but ack, our stomaches were grumbling, so we went to Design School to eat first and fill up our stomachs. :3

Faizal came along. He wanted to take some pictures of ex-classmates for a project, with its theme "Where are they now?", and I happened to be one of his models. Oh well. He wanted to take pictures of me coding and programming, so we went to the computer lab after the three of us finished our lunchs. Had to drag Aaron along with me because I still had not recover my matriculation card yet and had no access to the lab without it. D:

Walking along the entrance of the library on the way to IIT School, I thought that since I said "Watashi wa toshokan ni ikimasu.", I'm better off keeping that promise, so I decided to walk into the library through the entrance, turned one round, leave the library through the exit and continue the journey to IIT School. I was expecting Aaron to follow, but who would have knew that Faizal did the same? XD! Roflmao!! XD!! The security guard was looking at us as if asking, "Oi, what the fuck are you punks up to?!" XD!!!

We went to the computer labs, used Aaron's matriculation card, but bleh, the card reader displayed the message "invalid time" or something like that. Guess the computer labs just aren't open on Saturday. How useful.

Went to the library, and guess who did we see? Wei Sheng! ^^ I had no idea he was studying in Engineering School, haha. We just kind of broke all contact after the day we got our 'O' level results back. I'm glad to know that he's still doing well, haha. Faizal went to grab some books about game design, game artwork and AI programming, dumped them all to me and took photos of me trying my best to read them. And yes, when I say "trying my best to read", I really mean that. None of the books interest me, so I'd be sitting there, staring at the book and thinking of something else while waiting for Faizal to be done with his photos. ^^"

I'm glad you can't see Aaron's face from this angle, because Aaron was confused like fuck.

Game Design. Naruhodo...

Wei Sheng got dragged into Faizal's project as well. Faizal took photos of him doing his Engineering Maths worksheet. I took a lot at the worksheet, and LOGARITHMS! OH MY GOD~! *squeals* It's been so bloody long since I last did logarithms, lmao, and it is my favorite chapter in the whole entire A. Maths syllabus last year!! :D I wanted to borrow Wei Sheng's worksheet and try out the questions, but he didn't let me. Bleh.

After Faizal left (presumely to take a photo of yet another ex-classmate) with Wei Sheng, Aaron taught me how to draw humans, because we have to draw our characters in Storyboarding class. Yay! :D I think I need to practice more. XP We also went to a section in the library filled with books teaching you how to draw manga, lol. Didn't know they are there, lol. Just realized how resourceful this bloody library is. XD

We went home after that. ^^

Here's today's updates. I got two additional levels, Hitpoints level 91 at Blue Dragons, and Magic level 84 because I teleported to Watchtower. XD

Got three clues from four Blue Dragon trips as well.

Zamorak Crozier! :D Yay, that'd be something to fill up my Costume Room.

Tch, ano yarou...

2008-07-11T09:12:00.005+08:00

Kok Keong's MSN nick: i will not love anymore... anyone... cos no one noes... the feeling of loving ppl...the feeling of pain... it hurtz...

Tch. He thinks he's the only one who knows how painful it is? Hmph. Annoying guy. Makes me want to give him a kick to the face - meh... Forget it; too troublesome.

NO ONE PIECE THIS WEEK? FUCK!!

Yay, Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 193 is finally out. :3 Not a very exciting chapter, I must admit. Lol Fujitaka and Nadeshiko for chapter cover :3

Lmao. That apple-carrying brat from chapter 184 who keeps dropping his basket of apples time and again even appeared in "Syaoran"'s flashback. And he even said the same thing: "Clow Country is a great place, you know!" No wonder present day "Syaoran" looks so shocked when he sees that brat, lol.

Kamel says:
why do you notice this stuff, goddamn ;_;

You're bound to remember some fucking brat's face when you see him dropping that stupid basket of apples three times in a row, day after day.

Oh, and I still don't get why they lock the two Mokona up in glass jars just like the ones you used in Physics lab lessons to test that air transmits sounds.

Lmao at the ending. Sakura hears a bell, her eyes go dazzled and she starts to float. JUST like in Chapter 1. -.- Heck, even the sound effects are the same.

Naruto chapter 408! w00t! Oooh, cool Sasuke chapter cover. I like the tagline. :P

"The solitary genius. The boy once resisted, but eventually learned this pain is just part of his fate."
Lmao!! Madara really did manage to invite the whole Hawk/Falcon/Eagle/Bird/Prey/Talon/Claw/Blah/Bleh/Bullshit Team into Akatsuki. Look at them all wearing Akatsuki robes! xD

Sasuke looks really cool unleashing his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, lol. It reminds me of in Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, when "Syaoran" got half of his heart back from Clone Syaoran, took his eyepatch out and opened his eyes. XD

OH MY GOD!! ARE THEY SERIOUSLY GONNA MAKE NARUTO INTO ANOTHER FUCKING JIRAIYA?! NOOOOOOOOO! I WANT NARUTO TO DEVELOP HIS OWN TRAINING STYLE! NOT COPY SOME GUY'S!

"Is it noon already? Fucking damn it!" Best quote in Naruto, ever, dattebayo.

Attack level 90! :D

Yay! New footer to suit my current theme. :3

Why the fuck must I be so lazy?!

2008-07-10T04:41:00.006+08:00

Why the fuck must I be so lazy?! Seriously, this laziness is starting to be a liability that I seriously cannot afford. Maybe I need some goals to motivate me or something...

Blog post made on 4.41am. Cheers. -.-

!

I just realized the existence of the Math.floor(). And to think I have been loyally truncating my numbers with decimal digits into whole numbers by explicit casting them...

My current favorite word: Tch. (ちっ。)

Kurogane from Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE tend to say it a lot whenever he feels annoyed or irritated. I think I kinda picked it up from him. :3

Took bus 291 to school today, because I was lazy to walk all the way three bus stops away just for bus 8.

First lesson was Storyboarding. The lecturer was taking her own sweet time, so a few of my classmates started playing Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. I got bored and decided to join them. Kok Keong, Mason, Fuyuan, Yong Han and I started a free-for-all match.

Thinking that in a free-for-all match, it would be more wise to turtle while the other players fight themselves to death, I build a whole horde of Watch Towers and locked myself in. XP I ended up almost losing due to running out of resources and lack of a second gold mine. -.- Luckily, the lecturer came, and we stopped playing immediately. :3

I admit that I was more interested in chatting on Windows Live Messenger and writing Java codes then paying attention to the lesson. The lecturer gave us a break, and Fuyuan and Mason dragged me into yet another Warcraft III game, lol. This time was a team game, where me, Kok Keong and Yong Han teamed up against Mason, Shawn and Fuyuan.

We suffered such a huge defeat, it was imbal. They had great teamwork, they had great coordination and they had great tactics. In addition, they were fast, forceful, and knew what to do. I see Troll Berserkers and Wind Riders out even while I was still using Grunts. -.- On the other hand, our team... meh. We don't even bother saving each other's hides, forget about teamwork and coordination. Oh well.

Ask me about what the lecturer taught during the Storyboarding lesson now, and I'll give you a blank.

Went to KFC to eat lunch with Aaron and Melvin. Melvin didn't want to eat anything, and he didn't say why he didn't want to. Weird guy. Meh, who cares? No one cares about him... Just kidding, Melvin.

We went to the library next. I was yet again reading a book on Java, but somehow, I was still unable to understand methods and parameters and arguments and arrays and all those other confusing stuff. If anyone ever asks me to summarize Java into five words, I'd tell him, "A confusing object-oriented language." I know I should add "programming" before "language", but meh.

Melvin pang seh us and left first. Meh, weird guy. Aaron and I, being late, started to run towards APEL lesson, lol. Turns out the lecturer, out of laziness or something like that, didn't teach APEL again. Instead, he talks to us for about fifteen minutes (regarding disclipline and stuff. I feel my defiance stirring up from deep inside my heart XP), then dismisses us. o.O

Because Java is so freaking confusing, I decided to ask him for some help in regards to methods, parameters and arrays. We went to a computer lab (since he said he needs a computer to explain), and Aaron and Melvin went along. Wow. Not only did he clear all my doubts, he even taught additional stuff, such as debugging and variable naming! Talk about having a great teacher, haha. :P

By the way, I didn't even know why Melvin came along. Instead of listening, he was off playing CounterStrike over at another computer. Weird guy. He left again without us. Tch.

Aaron and I went to PRSP lecture together with a few coursemates, when we found the lecture threatre changed. Turns out the lecturer changed the venue; must have missed it or something. They were complaining loudly about the lecturer, being sarcastic about him changing venues and not informing us and stuff like that, lol.

Two hours of lecture instead of standard one, just because for some reason he decided not to turn up for yesterday's one. Bleh. I didn't even understand myself what for I stayed. He talked on and on and on and on about loops. While loops, for loops, do-while loops, and guess what? I already knew them. -.- Read about them in the textbook weeks ago. Bleh.

Thanks a lot to Aaron and Wan Xiang, man. Without them, I would have probably get bored to death. The three of us were writing messages on Aaron's foolscap paper and passing it around, as if in a MSN conversation. XD!

Melvin is a seriously weird guy. Look at what he did during the break halfway through the lecture...

Hiding under the chairs... Seriously weird guy.

Kenny, Khai Ming and Aaron wanted to submit their WDS proposals after that. Jia Hao and I decided to go with them, even though we have already submitted ours. But slow Aaron, he hasn't paste his site concepts onto his proposal, and he lost his double-sided tape, so he ran all the way to the bookshop and came back all panting, lol.

Kenny, Jia Hao and I all helped him in pasting Aaron. Very helpful of you, Khai Ming, to just stand down there and afk.

We took the lift to the sixth floor, then Kenny realizes the lecturer's pigeon hole is one stairs above, so we went up to the seventh floor and found a huge sign on the lecturer's pigeon hole stating we should throw our WDS proposals in. -.- So there they go.

Went home after that. :3

Slayer level 74! :D

Tch

2008-07-09T20:22:00.006+08:00

First period started with WDS. While I may be grateful to the school for teaching me how to do animations on Flash, may I ask this simple little question?

Just what the fuck is the point of me learning Flash when I don't even fucking have the software Adobe Flash to begin with?

Tch.

I was so bored that I did these two Flash out of boredom. Yeah, instead of focusing on the tedious task on hand (animating frame-by-frame, eww!), I wasted time doing this instead.

火神招来・風華招来・雷帝招来・水龍招来！

KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU!

Next period was PRSP lecture. The lecturer didn't turn up. People started leaving, and we followed. Tch.

Went to the library with Kenny, Jia Hao and Khai Ming. We were taking turns to play Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath on Khai Ming's laptop. Both Jia Hao and Khai Ming managed to defeat Hard computer opponents (and Jia Hao with rather ease), while Kenny even managed to take down a Brutal computer opponent. Me? I managed to defeat an Easy one. Yay. ^o^

-.-

While Kenny was playing, some people came over and sounding extremely pissed off, wanted him to turn down the volume. Looks like it's not such a good idea to play computer games at full volume in a library.

The four of us went to McDonald's for lunch after that, and when we went back to TP, joined Wan Xiang at the benches outside the LT waiting for WDS lecture to start.

WDS lecture - waste of time. We re-learnt what we learnt during this morning's practical lesson. Tch. Aaron came wearing a really smart and handsome white shirt, lol, because he just came back from his secondary school after receiving an award for scoring five A1s in 'O' levels.

Too bad he changed out of it immediately after. Oooooh! 換衣服の術！！ Been a long time since we last see it!! XD

CMATHS1 lecture next. Yet another waste of time. I learnt about sets, so there I was, wasting three pages of rough paper drawing shit with my lousy drawing, and then decided to play cellblock with Xiao Yao, where I got promptly thrashed. I lost my touch.

Games room session next. The whole class wanted to play some Warcraft III custom game together, but tch, the computer I went to encountered some fatal error, and there weren't any computers left which can play Warcraft III. Grrr... So they freaking pang seh me and went to play by myself. Grrr...!

Went to join Melvin, Kenny and Kok Keong in CounterStrike, despite me not being a fan of First-Person Shooters. In fact, I hate them. They always give me a fucking headache. But grrr, I was additionally pissed off by the fact that I couldn't tell who the fuck is who. Why the fuck do all three of them play with their names as "Kenny" and "Cuddling"? What the fuck, are they gays or something (well, explanatory for Kenny, but Kok Keong and Melvin?!)?! Grr...

Got pissed off and went to watch Yong Han play that game. Couldn't stand it any more and left after ten minutes.

Bloody waste of my fucking time.

I'm never going there ever again. Could have went home at 11pm after WDS, but no, I just must stay back for the sake of going to the games room and playing with my class. *rolls eyes*

Tch. I'm so fucking naïve I feel like stabbing myself with three swords.

Kamel sent me this picture of Saito with his sword Derflinger from Zero no Tsukaima, haha. :3

New blog banner and layout. Yay.

New blog footer on the way... just that I don't have Adobe Fireworks. Damn.

600th post

2008-07-08T19:38:00.003+08:00

Lol, today's blog post is my 600th one. XD

Today's first lesson at school is a WDS tutorial. We were given our WDS term tests back. Mwahahaha! I pwned Kenny by 0.5 marks!! :D

Second lesson was INCG lab-session. Teamed up with Wan Xiang and Aaron to tackle the summarizing of an article comparing pre-rendered movie cutscenes and in-game animation.

Went to IIT canteen to eat lunch after that with Khai Ming, Kenny, Jia Hao, Sebastian and Shi Hui. Went to the printing shop with Khai Ming and Jia Hao after that. Ugh, so freaking troublesome to just print some freaking WDS proposal. =.=

Thanks to Jia Hao for lending me some money so I can pay for printing my WDS tutorial. :D Thanks to Khai Ming for lending me his thumb drive so I can print my WDS tutorial (thanks to Jia Hao too, just that his thumb drive doesn't work for some weird reason :P). :D And thanks to Sebastian for helping me buy some A4-size printing paper at the bookshop for me. :D

Went to LT3 after that, because our course coordinator wanted to see us for some reason. I wasn't expecting any good. Indeed, no course coordinator would waste his time for an audience with you just to praise you, "Ah! Good job with your term tests! I'm very proud of you! Keep up the good work!!" Anyone who can find me a course coordinator like that, and I'll regard you as a God. Heck, I'll even worship you and join your religion.

First thing he talked about was our term tests results, as I kind of expected. Apparently we were supposed to be the smartest intake in Games & Entertainment Technology (probably due to 'O' level scores or something), and yet we broke the record for having the most failures for the first term test. I whispered to Kenny, who was sitting beside me, "Yay, we broke history." He lol'd.

And the course coordinator continues with his speech. By the end, I was feeling very guilty about my term test results, even though I didn't actually fail any of my term tests. I'm honestly surprised by how powerful words can be. Come to think of it, "words" is an anagram of "sword". o.O

He then talks about the course structure. I'm sooooo looking forward to Object-Oriented Game Programming and Game Math & Physics next semester. :P

I left, reflecting on what he said just now. I realize one thing: I have been taking things too easy so far, and this is seriously not the attitude I'm supposed to have. One thing for sure, I must be more hardworking from now on. I have to work hard from now on. Full power, let's go!

After that was CMATHS1 lecture, conveniently located in the lecture threatre just next door. XD The lecturer continued teaching sets. It's really kinda boring, since I learnt about sets in A. Maths two years ago. Oh well, what can I do? Jia Hao, who didn't take A. Maths, was getting very confused, and both Kenny and I spent time clearing his doubt, lol.

Oh, and I had fun with Kenny's graphical calculator. :3

Kenny - professional at tearing up his own CMATHS1 lecture notes.

PRSP lab session after that. Was supposed to hand up our assignment 1. The lecturer went around and look at students' code, ask them questions and rate them a score one-by-one, so we had to wait a very long time for our turn. A few of us started complaining, since we had put our codes inside a CD, the CD inside an envelope and sealed it up, just as they wanted, so the idea of having to unseal our envelopes just to have to reseal it later wasn't a nice one. Nevertheless, we had to do it, however unwittingly.

After unsealing, we went to reseal it, and Shi Hui and I immediately thought of the Japanese word for "seal": 封印 (fuuin). XD Reminds me of "Syaoran" in Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE. 右目の封印が解けて俺の心がお前から離れるまでに，俺のじゃないお前自身の心が產まれる事に。俺は賭けると。 XD I even thought of plucking my left eye out just to seal the envelope. o.O

Was watching the Diablo III gameplay trailer on Sebastian's computer (it was 568MB, holy shit) while waiting for my turn. My reaction: Holy shit!! I want to freaking buy it!!

Anyone who wants to play Diablo III as well, give me a heads up and we can play together. I think I want to play Barbarian. :3 Oh, and was pretty sweet that you can smash the pillar, the pillar collapses and kills the mobs for you. XD!

At long last, the lecturer comes to me. Out of my four programs, he only read the code of two, didn't bother compiling and running any programs, and asked me two questions so easy that I felt insulted my intelligence (especially since he said previously that he'd ask whoever next with an extremely difficult question. Hmmm, a challenge. Sounds interesting to me). Ugh. I don't know why, but I can't help but feel pissed off. All that trouble coding and programming and testing and debugging, and the lecturer doesn't even feel the need to give the program a trial run.

Went home with Aaron on bus 291. Hmmm, such a long time since we last took that bus... XD

Smithing level 75! :D

Bloody ripoff

2008-07-07T19:23:00.005+08:00

Tsubasa's Sky Wing Shoot = Bloody ripoff off Hyuga's Raijuu Shoot. =.=
Raijuu Shoots pwn Sky Wing Shoot! Sky Wing Shoot for teh loss! D:

I prefer Tsubasa's Sky Dive Shoot a lot more. -.-

Today's school day started with an INCG lecture. I forgot what the lecturer taught us during the lecture. Ugh. *downloads lecture slides* Oh yes!! Modeling!! Polygon modeling and NURBS modeling! Ah... Yes!

CMATHS1 tutorial next. Was killing time by writing crap at the back of my foolscap paper. =3=

It was a three-hours break after. Aaron, Wan Xiang, Shi Hui, Khai Ming, Jia Hao, Kenny and I went to the bookshop to buy envelopes for our PRSP assignment, then went to the computer lab.

CMSK. Ewww.

My father came and fetched me, intending to take me straight to Changi Village, so I can take photos for my WDS, but my freaking handphone was freaking flat in battery, so I had to return home and charge my handphone. =.= Major bummer.

Took 45 photos there in a hour, and I'm done. No problem!

Logic... My anger's mortal enemy.

2008-07-06T21:34:00.002+08:00

Can anyone please, please, please enlighten this lost and confused boy why, oh, why do we freaking need some bloody proposal just to do a freaking website?? D:

Enough said.

Wasurenai sa, kimi no egao mamoru yo.
Tsukami toru no wa, kirameku sekai.

As if breaking off my midday laziness, I float upon my attitude

2008-07-05T13:25:00.002+08:00

No matter how painful it might be...
I'll do everything in my might!
So please... You too, act according to what you believe in!

Nothing much happened today.

I'm such a pro... in procrastinating. I got bored of writing my status report for PRSP, and it was 5.30pm then, so I told myself, I'll play Command & Conquer 3: Tiberian Wars for an hour until 6.30pm, then finish off the status report and start on my WDS proposal.

I played until 6.30pm and continued playing...

I played until 7.30pm and continued playing... o.o

I played until 8.30pm and continued playing... ._.

I played until 9.30pm and continued playing... o.O

I played until 10.30pm and continued playing...

I played until 11.30pm and continued playing... O_O

...and I went to sleep. /facepalm

...Sometimes, we need just a little motivation in our studies.

だから…お前も、信じたとおりに進め！

2008-07-04T18:54:00.000+08:00

たとえ、それがどんなに辛い事でも…
俺は、俺がすべき事をする！
だから…お前も、信じたとおりに進め！

I laugh at those outdated websites on the Internet stating that Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE is not a direct sequel of Cardcaptor Sakura. I meant, the two main characters of the latter manga got married, gave birth to a son, the father gives his name and sword to his son, and their son runs off to become the main character of the former manga? Rofl?

My current to-do list, written down so I can freaking try to stop procrastinating.

Get my PRSP assignment over and done with. It's just four questions where I am supposed to write up and code programs for. Big deal; it'll be easy.
Get my WDS proposal over and done with as well. I have procrastinate this for months for now; I seriously need to get a grip and stop this.
Project Sakura. Yeah, nice codename for it, right? I won't reveal what this is all about until I'm done with it. ;) But I must say, I have sure took a long time with this already, and it's seriously time I hurry up and finish it.
Memorize the lyrics of Kizuna, the character song of "Syaoran" (no idea which, "Syaoran" or Clone Syaoran) from Tsubasa Chronicle, sang by his voice actor, Irino Miyu.
Learn how to play Command & Conquer 3. Kenny has already lent me the CD, I just need to install and start playing, but hey, I probably should stop procrastinating and finish some of my current tasks before starting new ones. :P

Went on a suicide trip to the God Wars Dungeon with Paws, Beret, Ollie and Noronha. Paws got owned by the trolls and wolves outside and entered the dungeon with 1HP, so he went to Lumbridge pretty early. You won't imagine how hard I laughed. XD

The heroic ones of us, like Noronha and I, were slaying Level 107 Orks. Beret and Ollie, on the other hand, are slaughtering Level 13 Goblins for easy kill counts. -.-

A screenshot at Lumbridge Castle after our deaths!! XD The one on the extreme right is a stranger we met at Lumbridge Castle by the way, who seems to be interested in being part of our screenshot. XD

Hunter level 57! :D

Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 192 is finally fucking out, after five long weeks of tortorous waiting!! w00t! w00t!! :D

A beautiful coloured volume cover to begin this chapter which we have all been awaiting and ancitipating for five week! :D It's basically what happened at the end of last chapter, lol.

Syaoran passes his sword to his son "Syaoran".

In other words, "Syaoran" inherits his sword from his father Syaoran.

Argh, I remember how pissed off I used to be when Mokona keeps refering to the Syaoran who used to wear the eyepatch that Fay is wearing now as "Syaoran", since after all, he is the real Syaoran, compared to the Clone Syaoran who has falsely been our protagonist for... *checks* one hundred and eighteen chapters or so, or fifteen volumes, and lied to all of us.

Who would have knew that it turns out that the name of the so-called "real" Syaoran isn't even his real name? It was something he inherited from his father along with his sword. *rolls eyes*

I now revert back to refering to the Syaoran who was such a noob that he got captured, cloned and kept imprisoned as "Syaoran".

Oh, and regarding "Syaoran" receiving the jian from his father Syaoran, I can only say this:

I wish I have a father who would bequeath a sword to me! ;_;

And not only does "Syaoran" inherit the sword, he inherits his father's name as well. Oh, boo hoo, I have nothing to say if Syaoran wants his son to be called Syaoran as well. Syaoran's so weird, to give his name to his son... So is "Syaoran", for actually wanting the name. He even goes around telling Yuuko and Sakura-hime that his name is "Li Syaoran". /facepalm

As for me personally: No thanks, dad, you can keep your name. I prefer mine. D:

Come to think of it, wouldn't it be weird if "Syaoran" and his parents go shopping together as a family or something, then one of Syaoran's friends see them and shout, "Hey! Syaoran!" The father-and-son would both turn their heads and be like, "Who the fuck are you calling?" Weird.

And come to think of it, why the fuck is Syaoran so emo, refusing to show his face?? ;_______; Emo Syaoran!!

If I can do so, I would like to request CLAMP to do a coloured illustration of "Syaoran" and his parents for the next volume. :D

"Syaoran" draws his sword. Ooooh, pretty. I like the magic circle that comes out whenever "Syaoran" draws his sword. CLAMP should do a coloured illustration on his magic circle, together with Yuuko's, Clow Reed's and Yukito's. XD

Ugh! Touya got pwned! XD Haha, cute Sakura, being so happy just because she pwned Touya, even shouting "Katta!" XD!

Syaoran: If it looks like you're going to be bullied by someone, next time, I'll protect you.
Sakura: Thanks.

So cute...! ^^

Lmao, young Watanuki looks so lost. And when are we going to get the explanation of the link between "Syaoran" and Watanuki? Long-lost brothers? Cousins? Sons of former rivals of love? XD

Took bus 8 to school this morning, and lol, I saw Jian Shun on the bus. He was sitting down, while I was standing up in the crowded and packed bus (roasted sardines, anyone? :P). I patted his shoulder, and he turned around to take a look at who it is, but he didn't show any sign that he knew or even recognized me. Lol...

Note: Sardines are typically tightly packed in a small, flat can, Thus, the close packing of sardines in the can has led to their being used metaphorically for any situation where people or objects are crowded together; for instance, in a bus or subway car. And since I'm a pyromaniac with a love for fire, hence "roasted". XD

Holy shit... There was a really cute girl on the bus too. She was standing up, and oh my God, she really reminded me of my crush when I was in Primary 6, five years ago, LOL! She really had beautiful short hair, hehe. XP But nmaa, I seriously doubt she's really my Primary 6 classmate, lol. She's probably just someone who looks really really like her.

Thanks to having to wait for Jian Shun after alighting the bus, I noticed her walking towards Engineering School. Hmmmmm, lol. :3

Was walking to school with Jian Shun when someone suddenly slaps me from behind. Turns out it's Jurene, lol. :3 The three of us went to find the new classroom where we are supposed to have our ~~Storybirding~~ Storyboarding (I love this typo of mine XD) lesson in. Stupid Aaron... The classroom is in the third floor, so I told him to come to the third floor, but he kept insisting on staying at the first floor for some weird reason. XD

The four of us found the classroom and the lesson started. Okay. Jin Yao, sitting near me, was more interested in playing DotA, while I was more interested reading the Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE chapter 192 RAW that I downloaded. :3

Went to the library with Melvin after the lesson. I was reading Java and him C++. I'm getting confused by objects and methods in Java. ;_; Sigh...

Went to the canteen later and bought some tuna sandwiches for lunch, lol. Went to APEL lesson immediately after that. I got 43 out of 50 for my INCG, lol. I can't believe Jin Yao would have get 45, lol. I hope he doesn't mind if I go to him and make him my master? XD!

Went to PRSP lecture after that. Learnt "if else if else" and "switch" statements. Learnt about them long ago from reading the textbook. Yawn. Took a photo with Melvin before the lecture started.

Melvin looks weird in this photo. o.O

Went home after that. :3

I'm seriously considering changing my Top 6 list of favorite manga, LOL! It used to be like this:

One Piece
Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
Bleach
Naruto
Captain Tsubasa: World Youth

But hey, I realized now that I like Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE much more than One Piece. I would be so impatient that I'd download Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE RAW manga, read and try to interpret myself than wait for translations. Had been doing this five weeks ago for Chapter 191, and today as well for Chapter 192. However, I'd wait for scanlations to come out for One Piece, rather than be so impatient as to download RAW.

Besides, I think I prefer Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE so much more than One Piece. Right now, my handphone's filled with Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE images which I use frequently as wallpapers and screensavers, and I have four Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE wallpapers on my computer, as compared to only one for One Piece. (But hey, I've got two Naruto and two Bleach wallpapers. Weird o.O)

As for Bleach and Naruto, Naruto's replacing Bleach's place. I'm seriously disappointed and pissed off with Bleach's freaking-twelve-chapters-long, stupid and draggy flashback, so there you go.

Now, my current Top 5. Never ever believe that One Piece would lose its place as Top 1, but there you go. :P

Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
One Piece
Naruto
Bleach
Captain Tsubasa: World Youth

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess. When the princess turned 25 (the optimal age for strength, good looks, and fine moral character), her kind father brought her a gift in a lovely golden box. Anxious to know what was in the box, the princess ripped off the golden wrapping paper.

When the box was finally opened, the princess was thrilled. To her surprise, her feather had given her what she had always wanted - a computer program that always ran correctly. The program did everything the princess wanted, and did it all exactly the way she wanted it to be done. The princess was hpapy, and so was her kind, old father.

As time went on, the computer program never failed. For years on end, the princess changed her needs, expected more out of life, made increasing demands, expanded her career, reached for more and more fulfillment, juggled the desires of her husband and her kids, stretched the budget, and sought peace within her soul. Through all this, the program remained her steady, faithful companion.

As the princess grew old, the program became old along with her. One evening, as she sat by the fireside, she posed a daunting question to the program. "How do you do it?" she asked. "How do you manage to keep giving the right answers, time after time, year after year?"

"Clean living," replied the program. "I swim twenty apps each day, I take C++ to Word off viruses, I avoid hogarithmic algorithms, I link Java in moderation, I say GNU to bugs, I don't smoke to backup, and I never byte off more than I can queue."

FUCK YEAH IM A NOOB

Fucking waste of time

2008-07-02T19:37:00.002+08:00

School today is such a fucking waste of my time.

I just saw a really cute girl while having lunch outside today. She was wearing a cute little ponytail, and a school uniform I was unable to recognize. Her smile looks so cute and brilliant that blinded even me, sitting five tables away! And I wasn't even wearing my spectacles! Oh my... She looks just like a goddess! It was as if her smile alone could put a stop to wars, and bring peace to the lands once again!

I really ought to not let my stupid imagination run so wild at times...

Went to C. Maths lecture. Lecturer moved on to the next topic, Set Theory. And guess what? I already learnt it all two years ago. -.- It was a boring waste of time. I shouldn't have go if I knew. Thanks to chatting with Kenny and Aaron, or else I'd get bored to death. XD

Went to games room next. I was anticipating something new. Maybe some new game or something, but bleh... Our lecturer came for five minutes and went off in a hurry. =3= Jurene and Qiyang left after half an hour, probably on a date or something. Jian Shun left a short while later as well, probably to break up their date or something. Yong Han left another short while later too, probably to have fun watching the three.

Meh, more of my imagination running wild.

So there were only me, Kenny, Jia Hao, Aaron, Khai Ming and Kok Keong left. -.- Adding onto the boredom. Bleh.

Aaron, Jia Hao and I played a three-way game of Warcraft III, with Aaron using Humans, Jia Hao using Night Elves and me using Orcs. Aaron certainly had fun turtling, so Jia Hao and I had fun clashing against each other. Ends with my whole army being demolished, and Jia Hao's weakened.

In the end, Jia Hao and I got fed up and decided to form an alliance. Jia Hao took the remnants of his army and attacked Aaron's army, while I rebuild mine. After I'm done rebuilding my army, I took it to where they are; Jia Hao was on the losing end and was retreating. Our two armies ran past each other and I took over Jia Hao as the role of Aaron's opponent. XD Aaron was like, "Oh my God! One enemy after another!", and I easily demolished his already-weakened Heroes. XD

Since Aaron was turtling, with a multitude and variety of towers ready at his base, I built several Troll Batriders and were about to rush Aaron's base with them. Aaron threatened to quit the game if Jia Hao and I team up on him again, which all three of us did (Jia Hao and I teamed up and Aaron quitted). XD!

For our next game, I suggested a 3-on-3 against computer opponents, but Khai Ming came along and wanted to play as well, so we made it a 4-on-4, against normal computers. Jia Hao and Khai Ming had their bases extremely close to each other, while Aaron and I start with our bases next to each other. Funnily, each of us used a different race, lol, with Khai Ming using Undead. XD

The freaking computers expanded really fast, lol. They already had two gold mines up and running before we even know it. XD The computer was also really aggressive; they kept attacking my base. Aaron and I struggle in the defense, and we kept shouting for Khai Ming and Jia Hao to help us, but those bastards focused more on attacking the enemies' expansion bases instead of defending their allies. -.-

I got fed up, and taking my two Heroes (Far Seer and Shadow Hunter) and eight Grunts, teleported them to Khai Ming's base and aided them in offense, letting my base die for all I care. XD So I left the entire defense of my base to Aaron, and no longer gave a damn to my base except for upgrades to my weapon and armour in my War Mill, focusing on attacking. Argh. Guess I was that pissed.

Jia Hao, Khai Ming and I worked separately to defend Jia Hao's little expansion, defeat one incoming enemy army after another, and to finally destroy the enemy bases one after another.

At the end of the game, just when our three combined armies plus Aaron's little Level 4 Paladin were whacking the last enemy structure, Khai Ming suddenly shouted, "Aaron, your Paladin is under attack!" I was like, "Who??" Aaron immediately shouted, "Oi! Stop it!" Turns out Khai Ming took his Undead units and were whacking Aaron's Paladin. XD

I saw the message "Aaron's Paladin has died", right before the message that declared us victorious. XD

I ended up with the second highest total score, with Jia Hao getting first, Khai Ming getting third, and Aaron getting sixth. You know what?

Next time, screw base expanding. I'll just build an army while forcing my ally to mine gold and give it to me. XD

Yeah, I had fun demanding gold from Aaron and Jia Hao. :3

忘れないさ君の笑顔守るよ

2008-07-01T21:24:00.006+08:00

A summary of what has happened today. Too busy for the full version now, but I'll update and elaborate eventually. :P

Went to school at 8.30am to do my stupid INCG project. Saw Kenny and Shi Hui, also at school early to do their project, and chatted with them for a while while waiting for the rest of my teammates to arrive
Went to the printing shop at the first floor of the library to laminate the cards in our project with Wan Xiang
Went to the benchs outside Business School to cut out the cards, with Wan Xiang, Jurene, Jian Shun and Yong Han. Aaron and Melvin came later, and I recruited them to help us cut out our cards, using the tagline: "Grab your swords, and fight the Horde!"
Motto: "The death of one group is ultimately better than the death of two groups."
Melvin is too greedy, he wants both groups to survive o.O
Finished on the dot, at 10am, when INCG was just about to begin
Went to the lab to hand up our homework, then left, since INCG today was postponed to somewhen else
Decided to go to Khai Ming's house, since we have five hours free
Aaron, Melvin, Kenny, Jia Hao, Khai Ming and I took bus 69 to the Tampines Bus Interchange, and then Melvin pang seh us and ran off. -.-
The remaining five of us took bus 969 to Khai Ming's house. Was a long walk from the bus stop where we alighted at to his house. Even longer than Kenny's. o_o
Jia Hao was playing Ninja Gaiden 2, with Kenny and Khai Ming watching and guiding him. Aaron and I went to play Pokémon cards
Aaron's deck was bloody imbal. ;_; Would elaborate, but Wei Kai is rushing for me to play RuneScape. -.-
Ordered Pizza Hut - two large Hawaiian Pizzas and two 1.5 litres of pepsi. :D Was nice haha.
Played Dead or Alive 4. Kasumi. I don't understand why Jia Hao prefers using guys though. C'mon! It's Dead or Alive 4!! O______o
Kenny, Jia Hao and Khai Ming went to play Halo 3. Aaron and I continued playing Pokémon cards. XD
Ended up skipping C. Maths lecture because we rather spent that one hour playing in Khai Ming's house. XD If Kenny, who got 31 out of 50 for his C. Maths term test, doesn't mind, then why should Mr. 48-For-C.-Maths-Term-Test here mind? O________o
Went back to school and were almost late for PRSP lesson. XD
Got back PRSP term test results. I told Aaron, Shi Hui and Jia Hao, "No need say one, I will confirm fail."
I ended up getting 48.
Yes. Out of 50.
Life is fucking cruel. ;_;
Aaron asks me to call him something if he gets B+ or above. I asked him, "So what do you want me to call you? My lord and master?" He doesn't want something as arrogant as that. Jurene, getting back her results and looking at her score, suddenly shouts "Oh my God!", so I got an inspiration for that. If Aaron gets B+ or above, I'll call him "oh my God".
Ends up he got 44/50. I'm at the moment forming a new religion named "Aaronism", and I shall be its very first follower. =.=
The rest of the two hours were filled with six extremely easy programming questions given to us, and a whole bunch of coding for those six questions
Saved them on that computer's desktop and was too lazy to send it to my e-mail so I can keep a copy of it. XD
Went home with Aaron and Jia Hao, initially intending to take bus 8
Bus was fucking crowded. I took out my handphone and called a personal taxi
Father came and took Jia Hao home first, then Aaron, and finally me. :D
That's the gist of it.

Take a look at Yong Han's foolscap paper after he's done using it as a chopping board. :3

RuneScape High Detail Beta is out for members! :D Wei Kai and I had parties in our houses and invited lots of people, lol. Found a lot of graphical bugs and took screenshots of them as well. XP Take note, the images are huge, because I'm playing fullscreen at a resolution of 1280 x 800! :O Thus the thumbnails. Don't load them all together! XD

I will confirm fail. Without fail.

2008-06-30T21:01:00.004+08:00

A summary of what has happened today. Too busy for the full version now, but I'll update and elaborate eventually. :P

INCG lecture - not bad. More on computer graphics. Sounds difficult.
C. Maths tutorial next. Course Coordinator came into our class halfway through and scolded some of us for inattentiveness.
Got back C. Maths term test back. I told everyone that I will "confirm fail".
I ended up getting 48 out of 50. =.=
Argh!! I forgot where I went for lunch!! Short-term memory... =.=
Wasurenai sa, kimi no egao mamoru yo...
o.O
Went to the library to do INCG project
Then went to the computer lab to do INCG project
Then went to CMSK. -.-
E-mail test for CMSK. -.-
Freaking easy and finished early. -.-
Had to wait for Wan Xiang, Jian Shun, Jurene and Yong Han to finish theirs -.-
Hanged around with Melvin and some other classmates outside
Decided to kick a dustbin nearby for fun. Melvin and Michael saw me
I accidentally kicked it down, and bloody hell, some lecturer came over, caught us, and consficated our matriculation cards -.-
Goodbye forever, my matriculation card! I love you!! Know this, my love, that whatever may come, our bond is eternal!!
T___________T
Went to the computer lab again to do INCG project
Stayed there all the way to 8.10am pm (I'm getting so many errors that one editor isn't enough. Thanks Kenny xD), rushing our stupid project
Jurene went home by herself. Jian Shun, Yong Han and I went to Block 802 for dinner. Wan Xiang came along with us, since the way to his house is the same
The three of us took bus 18 home after dinner
That's the gist of it.

Teamwork in action.

2008-06-28T23:03:00.002+08:00

Went to school for Japanese Language Lab of my CCA this morning with Aaron. Today's lesson was about the pronouns in Japanese language; the many ways of refering to oneself (or "I") and the many ways of refering to the person you are talking to (or "you"), haha.

I don't care what others say, I'm refering to myself using " 俺 (ore)", and no one is stopping me. :D I am not using "私 (watashi)". It sounds too feminine to me (since all the girls use "私"). Neither am I using "僕 (boku)". The kanji means "manservant"? What the fuck? No way!! D:

But hmmm, "俺" is too informal to use when addressing superiors, lol, so I guess I'll use "我 (ware)" during formal situations. Well, after all, the kanji is used by us Chineses to refer to ourselves, and since I myself am a Chinese... why not? :D

As for "you", I've decided to use "お前 (omae)" for friends, "手前 (temae) for opponents and enemies, and "君 (kimi)" for girls. XD Whatever you say, I am not using "貴方 (anata)". D: You don't know how much I was disgusted when Aaron refered to Kenny using "貴方".

The girls were specifically told which to use and which not to, and there I was, thinking some silly stuff.

If I get called "貴方" by a girl, I'd be happy. :D
If I get called "君" by a girl, I'd be a bit sad. :(
If I get called "お前" by a girl, I'd slit my wrist with a penknife. D:
If I get called "手前" by a girl, I'd bang my head against the wall.
If I get called "貴様 (kisama) by a girl, I'd jump down a building.

I just realized how emo I am. :D

Went to the library next to do my INCG project with Jurene, Yong Han, Jian Shun and Wan Xiang. Looks like I'm the only one late. :x

Aaron came a while later to hang out with us for fun, lmao.

After we are done, we went to McDonald's for lunch, since Jurene was complaining that she's hungry, lol. Wan Xiang went home first, because he wanted to eat at home, so there were only four of us left. D:

After eating, we went home. :3

Went to Eunos for a banquet tonight. Damn it. Went there being all full, having eaten McDonald's just three hours ago, lol. I was being too greedy at the start. Ate too much salted peanuts and drank too much Sprite at the beginning while waiting for the banquet to start and I was already full well after a few bites off the first dish. XD

It was worse when the shark's fin came next. Even though it was just nothing but beanstalks, mushrooms, onions and crabsticks, I still have always been a sucker for shark's fin, so I ate two whole entire bowls of it and got all bloody full, lmao. Feeling uncomfortably bloated and bored, I went to take a walk around.

Since I was in the vicinity, I decided to take a little walk to Ubi, which used to be where I lived, during my childhood, hehheh. Nothing better to do anyway. :P

Damn it, that place was seriously full of nostalgia for me, lmao. I also went to the park where I spent most of my childhood in, playing around with the three playgrounds there most of my time.

My first reaction when I stepped into the park was: HOLY SHIT! O________O

The park, when I was a kid, seemed so huge, so big, so endless. Maybe it was because I was so short when I was still a kid or something (:P), but now that I have returned as a teenager, fully grown with a tall height of 182cm (), the park suddenly seemed damn small to me! O______O

Lol. It just seems as if the park has shrinked, but well, mainly it's because of me growing up. XP

I sat at the benches there, feeling uncomfortably bloated still. Was so full that I even wanted to vomit. Then reminds me, I forgot how many times I have puked at that park when I was a child. Used to be a really sick and weak child, so I'd start to vomit every time I run too much, hence explaining my lousy stamina. XP

Then I was thinking, hey! Since I've been vomitting on the grass here ever since childhood, why not do it one more time? XP Nah, I'm being lame. -.-

Went back to Eunos, then because I had nothing to do, I sat on the bench listening to music, and then, for some weird, unkwown reason, I suddenly started talking to myself. o.O Talked about my life so far, my secondary school life, etc. Feels good after all that. I guess it was because I let things all out, after having stored everything inside me. Maybe I should do this some other time. :)

That auntie nearby was looking at me as if I've gone mad though. XD!

Went back to the banquet and was just in time for dessert. Almond jelly with longan. Hmmm, my favorite. :D I ate two bowls of them, and rofl, my mother koped six bowls (kept in plastic containers) and took them home! XD My grandmother, grandfather, father and me were all like, "We don't know who this woman is... "

Level 71 Herblore! :D

For Doomhammer!!

2008-06-27T03:23:00.005+08:00

JCG main committee and sub-committees meeting today at 6pm. Ugh. I was so peacefully taking a nap and sleeping at home when Aaron called me at 5.30pm. ;_; Sigh...... Urgently got my father to take me to school by car (set alarm to 4.30pm and intended to wake up then so I can slowly take my own sweet time by bus. Who would have knew my father turned my alarm off? -.-).

Reached TP in ten minutes and saw Aaron sitting at the staircases, waiting for me. We spent five minutes waiting for Yuhaimi, and headed to IT Canteen, because Yuhaimi was feeling hungry lmao. Aaron was hungry too, but that nub went broke buying too much materials for his project, so I had to lend him some money, lol. The two of them started eating, while I, my appetite still not back yet, just sat there waiting for them drinking my bottle of H2O.

Fifteen minutes late, and yet no trace of any sense of urgency can be detected from either of the two of them, lmao. We went to the computer lab next, because blur Yuhaimi went there to do his project a while ago and conveniently forgot to log out. XD After logging out, we went to where we were supposed to go for the meeting next.

Kenny was already there, in the center of the room. Ah, that pang seh kia. We sat at the corner. As for the minutes and details... trust me, you don't want to know.

Next.

Three whole freaking hours later (I spent every second of those three whole hours wondering why and for what reason was I doing there. Go figure.), the meeting finally freaking ended. Yay. Whoohoo.

Went to have dinner with Aaron and Zi Jie. Wanted to get Justin, Kenny and Yuhaimi as well, but meh, they didn't want to. =.= We walked about ten minutes to Block 802 there. Justin bought a bowl of noodles for himself, as well as fifteen sticks of chicken satay to share among ourselves, while I bought a large plate of oyster omelette for ourselves. :D

All thanks to Aaron that we managed to finish, lmao. He was the one who cleared up everything after both Zi Jie and I declared, "We can't eat anymore." xD! With two satay sticks left, I even suggested that he eat while walking, holding one satay stick with one hand. o.O

We went to the bus stop and take bus 28 home. Aaron alighted first, then me, and Zi Jie last. End of day. :)

Level 69 Farming! :D

I serve only the Frozen Throne.

2008-06-26T00:04:00.002+08:00

Very first lesson of Storyboard today. Storyboarding seems interesting. I just hope my lousy and inferior drawing skills don't make it too difficult for me. ^_^" Wan Xiang, Melvin, Aaron and I got into a group to do a storyboard with the example story assigned to us, about some hungry guy who goes to a shop and buys some food, but he didn't bring any money, lmao.

I think we did quite an excellent job for our very first storyboard. :P I like the guy's expression when he noticed that his wallet is totally empty. I even went to add dark bags under his eyes, just like L's, to show his helplessness. XD I even, for fun, added a "ど～ん！" behind, just like in manga, for dramatic effects! XD

First Storyboard lesson and we didn't get any homework. Ooooh! Sweet! I think I'd like storyboarding. XP

Went to the Computer Lab to hang out and chill with Melvin, Aaron and Wan Xiang. Was initially wanting to play RuneScape, but all three of them went to play Desktop Tower Defense, so I had no choice but to play along with them. Besides, RuneScape was lagging like fuck. XD

A while later, a whole group of people from our class came flocking into the lab originally only occupied by the four of us. Kenny went to Newgrounds to watch some Flash videos, and a lot of people, including me, went to flock to this computer, to watch them. XD I would always leave my Desktop TD game to watch Kenny's video, then come back with a lot of gold to upgrade my towers. XD

Went to APEL lesson next. Lecturer wasn't rather interested in teaching APEL, to be honest. ^^" He went pretty fast, finished in half an hour, talked with us leisurely for another fifteen minutes, and then we left. XD

Spent fifteen minutes at the corridors hanging out with the rest of my classmates, waiting for the next lesson to start, generally doing nothing but chatting with each other. I koped Shi Hui's hat and gave it to Melvin; Melvin wore it, and ran upstairs to hide from Shi Hui. XD!

Went to PRSP lecture next. Was sitting in the last row, but Qiyang gave us a heads-up: The new lecturer would always ask people sitting in the last row questions, so us, the whole back row, shifted up five or six or so rows. o.O Melvin was the only one still sitting at the back after the shift. Looking at him, it really reminded me of Arthas, the Lich King, sitting on the Frozen Throne of Icecrown. o.O

Here. Just look at the photo I took. O.o

I serve only the Frozen Throne.
o_______________________O!

Haha, I like the new PRSP lecturer. :D

And that's it for the day! o.O

Got a new sig, all thanks to my good friend Nathan! :D

But... if the seal should be broken and, despite all the time that had passed,
it wasn't enough, and you were without a heart,
if you continued to be only a created thing who acted wildly and forcefully,
I would... eliminate you! Raitei Shourai!

The contents have begun to rot.

2008-06-25T10:52:00.002+08:00

Felt a bit more comfortable after a good night's sleep, but my appetite never returned to me, despite me skipping all three of breakfast, lunch and dinner yesterday. Still felt a little headache as well. Ugh. I hate headaches.

First lesson for today, a lab session of WDS, had us learning Adobe Fireworks. Hmmm, looks pretty easy to use to me. I finished early and went to do some Java for fun. :3

After that, we skipped a PRSP lecture to attend a C. Maths enrichment talk. The talk was about who invented binary. There was something about bagua in the talk.

Looking at the picture of a bagua immediately reminded me of Syaoran's rashinban/magic circle from Cardcaptor Sakura and Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE. XD

Kenny, Melvin, Aaron, Khai Ming, Jia Hao and I went to Tampines Mall for lunch. At the bus stop, just when bus 69 came and we were about to board, we saw Kok Keong, and he came along with us, haha. I'm glad to see that he got over whatever troubles he has been experiencing these few days, stopped being emo and back to being the old cheerful Kok Keong who turned his head around and warmly said hi to me and Yong Han behind back in the first day of the orientation. ^^

Went to Yoshinoya at Tampines Mall basement to eat. My appetite still has not return yet, so I skipped lunch. Kok Keong skipped lunch with me, lmao. Aaron, Kok Keong and I, sitting on the same table, spent the whole lunch disturbing Kenny, who was also sitting with us, by attempting to pour pepper into his rice, ~~soap~~ soup (warii na!! Kenny doesn't drink soap, he drinks soup!! XD Thanks to Caleb for spotting the erorr ;D) and cup of coca-cola. That was fun, haha. XD

Because Melvin and Kenny bought their lunches together in a single receipt, they got a lucky draw entry. Melvin gave it to me, and I filled in my own information and submitted it.

Went to Comic Connection in Century Square next, because Jia Hao wanted to buy Team Fortress 2. Sigh, no new manga... -.- Lmao at them all crowding around the Xbox 360 outside playing Guitar Hero III. XD

At Tampines Bus Interchange, Kenny and Melvin decided to head to their old school, TPJC first, to collect their 'A' level certificates, and Aaron and Kok Keong tagged along with them, before going back to TP, while Jia Hao, Khai Ming and I decided to just go home and play truant for the rest of the day. XP

So I ended up missing a WDS lecture. Rofl. XD

Holy shit! Can't believe what I found while cleaning up and tidying my room! O_____O

A badge of myself when I was young!! XD

Ugh sick

2008-06-24T17:49:00.002+08:00

Ugh, dammit, I fell sick today. Woke up late at night halfway through my sleep with a stomachache and a desire to vomit. Felt really really cold and uncomfortable. Ugh.

Went to school with an additional headache to boot. God damn it. Thanks to my stupid, forgetful self, I forgot about my thumb drive and left it in the lab where we had our first lesson, WDS tutorial. God damn it, it costed $18! Oh, for fuck's sake... Nothing I can do about it now anyway. Nothing I can do, other than to redo everything I need to do inside my thumb drive. Nothing else I can do anyway.

I guess being able to admit defeat to fate and destiny and then quickly move on is one of the strengths only a pessimistic would have. o.O

......

Went to Design School to eat lunch with Wan Xiang, Melvin and Aaron. Didn't really have appetite, instead, I felt rather full, so I didn't eat anything. They were really quiet, lol. o.O

We went to the library next. Wan Xiang and Aaron abandoned us, so there were only Melvin and I left alone. ): Both of us were reading Java, but lmao, he was reading advanced Java, so he quickly got confused and went to change books. XD I felt damn sleepy lol, so despite how cold and noisy the library was, I still managed to fall asleep for a long period of time. XD

Went downstairs to the sixth floor and into one of the project rooms there to do the INCG project with Jurene, Jian Shun, Yong Han and Wan Xiang. After that, we went for PRSP lab session, which was once again slow like hell. I can't believe Aaron thinks the pace is too fast. Heck, I think it's too slow! o.O

Went home by myself taking bus 28. It's such a long walk to the bus stop, and it is such a fucking long wait for the bus... Damn it, I'm not taking bus 28 from now on. -.-

Murphy's law

2008-06-23T14:56:00.001+08:00

Murphy's law is an adage in Western culture that broadly states that if anything can go wrong, it will. "If there's more than one possible outcome of a job or task, and one of those outcomes will result in disaster or an undesirable consequence, then somebody will do it that way." It is most often cited as "Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong" (or, alternately, "Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time, in the worst possible way").

Who will they protect?
Who will they hurt?
These swords of ours.

互いのその剣は
誰を守り
誰を傷つけるのか

Went back to school this morning for CCA. -.- Attended the Japanese Language Lab with Aaron and Kenny. We were taught hiragana, and its respective romaji. Quite easy for me, since I can already identify about 80% of hiragana before I started attending these lessons, teaching them to myself on my own. :P

Kenny and Aaron were struggling though. I had fun writing hiragana on my paper, and asking them to read it out. They would look at my hiragana, look up at the board, find that particular hiragana, compare it to the reading, read the romaji out loud, then move on to the next character. And they took rather long to find just one character. XP

You could probably estimate how long this phrase "らいていしょうらい！" (Raitei Shourai!) took for them. XD But then again, I prefer just writing the kanji. 雷帝招来！

だってばよ！

After that, we took bus 69 to Tampines Bus Interchange, and went to Tampines Mall to eat lunch. We initially wanted to eat at Long John Silver's, but oops, the restaurant is packed full, so we instead went to McDonald's. Poor Kenny, he just ate McDonald's for breakfast. XD For some messed-up reason, all three of us were eating the exact same thing: McChicken student meal, upsized. o.O

After that, Kenny ran along, because he has a date with his girlfriend. Awww... Aaron and I went to the arcade in Tampines Mall. Hmmm, they've done some real renovation, as well as adding new arcade machines, and I must admit, I like it now.

They added Time Crisis IV and House of the Dead 4, haha, and I thought of trying to complete the whole entire House of the Dead 4 game with Aaron (my last attempt with Vernon resulted in us dying at the last boss -.- A major bummer.), but LOL! Aaron has only got four dollars... -.-

So I thought of pumping in four dollars as well, but argh, you get one dollar free for ten dollars, so I ended up pumping in six dollars. -.- We went to play House of the Dead 4, but argh!! That freaking second player gun is spoilt! Spoilt!!! -____- We got killed at the third boss wielding that mother-fucking chainsaw. Good game. =.=

With three dollars left, we went over to play Time Crisis IV. Some freaking idiot put eight credits in and left, so I took over and free twelve dollars worth for me. :D Aaron theorizes that it was probably some impatient idiot who keeps swiping his card on the reader, inserting a credit each time he does it. He probably left not knowing he has put a huge hole in his pocket. Idiot.

Aaron, with only two games, died pretty early, haha, and the two of us shared the eight credits that idiot left with us. XD Died at Stage 2, lol. We left. :3

Holy shit, One Piece chapter 405 is - no other word for it - epic. Admiral Kizaru decides to lead some unknown forces to Sabaody Archipelago, which hearing just the names of it makes Marines tremble. The Whitebeard Pirates ready themselves to attack the Marines, and the Shichibukai ready themselves to aid the Marines against the Whitebeard Pirates.

What's even more epic is that three Captains of three separate, entire Pirate Crews, each with a bounty of two hundred million Belli or more - Monkey D. Luffy, Trafalgar Law and Eustass Kid - are working together with each other against the Marines!! O_O

Made a sig for myself out of boredom today. The size ended up being too big, over the forum limits. Fuck.

Fishing level 85! :D

Played Arcanists with Tennis, Simon and Halo to hang out and chill, lol.

CDS Selection Day

2008-06-20T15:59:00.003+08:00

Today is the day CDS selection starts, where all of us select our CDS (Cross Discliplinary Subjects). It started at 10am, so I woke up at 8am, started camping there at 8.30am, prepares myself at 9am and prepares to log in at 9.30am. XD

The freaking system started lagging at 9.45am, and within 9.50am, the page won't freaking load. At 10.30am, this conversation took place:

You got "Service Unavailable" in IE7??
cuddling [Hugs for free!] {Grr Rawr Meow!} says:
yeah

Finally got in later. Yay. ^o^

Hope I can get into the subjects I want. Two out of my five initial choices got shot down. ;_; They were not in the list, because we are not supposed to take them. Sigh...

Wow, the chapter cover of Naruto chapter 405 looks so emo! XD

The chapter is good, nevertheless. Reminiscing of a fallen Jiraiya. I laughed at Naruto's thinking of the past when the both of them were at the baths, Jiraiya was peeking at the women bathing and Naruto was trying to stop him. XD

"Nice to meet you... I'm Samy! You can send me a love letter later!"

I learnt something new. :3

my new Syaoran and Clone Syaoran wallpaper, based on the volume cover of Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE volume 22. XD

I went and look for it because very early this morning (like 1am O_O), while playing RuneScape, I was also watching TV (moved my laptop to the living room so I can watch TV at the same time ), and the TV was showing a very old re-broadcast of Jack Neo's comedy program, Comedy Night Party.

In the program, they invited the Taiwanese twin singers 2moro to sing. One wear black, one wear white, looking otherwise exactly the same, so I was like, "Wah! Syaoran and Clone Syaoran nia!"

Thus making me decided to go look for that wallpaper and to download it. ^^

Yay! Finally have more than 400 Slayer points, enough to learn how to make a Slayer Helmet! :D I got Simons Pure and Beretboy to come see me learn it as well as to craft it. XP Lol, Simon came wearing Karils, and I was wearing the same (he was fighting Mighty Banshees, while I was fighting Bloodvelds; both monsters attack using magic-based melee attacks). XD!

This was taken in my house at Pollnivneach by the way. :P I'll move back to Yanille after I completed my Slayer goal of level 85. ;P After Beret came, the three of us headed to ~~Amascut the Devourer~~ Sumona the Slayer Master (), and I claimed my just reward.

Mwahahahah! The secret is mine! All mine! Mwahahah - uh-hem.

Tremble before the Scourge, because the Slayer Helmet looks like the Lich King's helmet in Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne and World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, and as we all know, the Lich King is the ruler of the Scourge. :P

Took two screenshots because Beret nub was slow in his message. -.-

Summoning level 58! :D

Summoning level 59! :D

Summoning level 60! :D

Summoning level 61! :D

Summoning level 62! :D

Silly emo

CHOICES
Silly emo. You thought you didn't have any.

Slayer level 72! :D

Lol, two people doing the same clue in the same world at the same time. XP

Whoa... A whole field of flowers in Edgeville. O___O And say hi to Simon behind me! XD (I presumed he saw the green dot on his minimap when he was in bank and came out to say hi ^^)

Do I look like I appreciate flowers? XP

Junk Treasure Trails. *rolls eyes*

Got Summoning level 53 from Tears of Guthix! :D

More junk Treasure Trails. *rolls eyes* Oh well, at least the 15 Purple Sweets sold out instantly on Grand Exchange at maximum price.

More junk Treasure Trails......

......

Kfn got his 55th (or so I believe if memory serves me right :P) Slayer task in a row completed, and I started up a chain of "w00t!"s. :P

w00t! Rune Kiteshield (h3)! :D

Junk Treasure Trails.

Strength level 88 and combat level 117! :D

Right here, right now, bang!

2008-06-14T21:25:00.004+08:00

Today was the day Dave went into National Service. I went along to Pulau Tekong with him, lol. Was originally intending to wear white (Chineses wear white during a family member's funeral, get what I mean? XP), but meh, might be taking the joke too far.

Who the hell would have knew that Dave himself wore white...? -.-

Wen Qian told me that his brother can't do a single vertical pull-up. I don't believe it, dattebayo.

Took quite a few pictures. I'll post them up later. :)

Kk, that's it for today. XD

Edit: The photos, as promised. XD

Tried to take a photo of us at the link between Pasir Ris MRT Station and Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, but he kept trying to dodge it, lol.

Wen Qian helped us take this one at Pulau Tekong. :D

I love One Piece chapter 503 that came out today. :D The Straw Hats had officially declare war on the nasty, evil, obnoxious Tenryuubito, and are ownage in just doing so! :D

Marine Headquarters? Admiral? Bring it on! I'm sure Luffy in Gear Second has sufficient strength to go against them. Besides, what Pirate King is Luffy going to be if he can't even beat an Admiral? :P

I like how the Flying Fish just crash into the Auction House and brought more of the Straw Hats along with them, lmao. More chaos, lol. Trafalgar Law is still staying inside despite all the pandemonium? Hmmm, I wonder why... Maybe he, as a fellow pirate, will ally with the Straw Hats against the incoming Marines? XD Why else would he still be staying here, lol?

Lol, Silvers Rayleigh is one seriously fucked-up old man. He gets captured to be a slave, steals all the money inside the auction house, gets sold, steals all the money from his owner, escapes, go gambling with all the money, and repeat when he runs out of money? o_O And he, is the Right Hand of the Pirate King?? Gol Roger's First Mate?? Lmao!!

Wow, that old man is pwnage with his spiritual energy though, I must admit. Can't wait for next chapter!! XD

I love the "w00t!" quick chat. It stimulates a "chain lightning"-like effect of replies of "w00t!"s. :P

Madvillain, Droan375 and I later went and had a nice game of Castle Wars. 8)

Yet another junk Treasure Trails.

Beret wanted a fight. I think I just made him broke.

Friday the Thirteen

2008-06-13T11:28:00.006+08:00

Sian... Don't feel like doing anything... Today is Friday the Thirteen... Such an unlucky day.

If I go out, I'll probably fall down, get robbed, attacked by a gang of armed criminals, get into a fight with them and come back all injured.

If I stay at home, the power will most likely go out, so I can't play my computer or my PS2. Heck, there may even be a fire, so I probably can't read any manga either.

And even if I just lie on my bed, sleep whole day and do nothing, I'll probably have terrifying nightmares.

Ugh. It sucks to be a pessimistic on an unlucky day. -.-

James (a.k.a. Topsummoner as he is known online) just sent me a certain image on MSN.

Holy shit! That was fast! Now the whole world knows that Topsummoner has hydroendocardiospatulaitis syndrome!! XD

Kamel says:
new sasuke chapter is out
Samy [You did this... to our people... knowingly? Arrrgghhh!] says:
w00t already?
Samy [You did this... to our people... knowingly? Arrrgghhh!] says:
Thanks for heads up

~~Sasuke~~ Naruto chapter 404 seems rather... interesting and intriguing. Kisame's still alive, and he calls Madara... Mizukage?? O____O Jiraiya died. Hmmm. We knew that months ago. The fact has already all sink in now. Nothing to be surprised of. Naruto's look reminds me of Harry Potter when he learnt that Sirius Black has died, lol.

It's rather funny to hear "Little Jiraiya died in battle.", I must admit. More funny than sad. And hyuu~! Emo Sasuke-sama has even got himself a freaking throne to sit on!! :3 Heck, looks like even Kisame is running along with Sasuke, his newly-named Team Snake and his new party member Madara.

"I'll give you one of the 'tailed beasts'."
-Uchiha Madara

I thought Madara was going to take one of the seven already-captured tailed beasts and stuff it into Sasuke, lol. You know, something to balance the odds against Naruto and his Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. And yay for Madara having won Sasuke over. *rolls eyes*

Bleach chapter -98 is out. Sigh...... Bleach has now dropped from my third favorite manga to now my fifth favorite manga, behind One Piece, Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, Naruto and Captain Tsubasa. The reason? This shitty flashback. It never ends, God damn it! The day Bleach chapter 316 comes out is the day I cheer like a madman, dattebayo.

Aizen-sama looks so scary. Hyuu~! :3

I hope this shit doesn't drag any more.

More junk Treasure Trails in RuneScape.

(That Gilded Bench has been rotting inside Grand Exchange with no one wanting to buy it at minimum price )

Thanks to Ad12 and Knight Nwk for coming to help me guard against Revenants in my second clue. :P

Got a Black Mask drop from Cave Horrors.

And yet a second Black Mask in the same trip. (Look at all the Naruto crap in private chat XD)
