I'M SO STARTLED!!!

actually, i think south park really is the most entertaining cartoon on earth. 

alrite, maybe not to kids that is.. 

BUSY weekend

Past weekend has been very happening haha...

was out to prayer meeting on friday, then practice until early in the morning which was well, kinda unplanned.. then gig yesterday at reddot which was quite a fun place to play and dined today at kuishin-bo.. i must say, for jap food lovers like me, it's really the place to go... 

Amazing Grace

Was in the midst of preparing for a lot of things - projects, lab reports, practices, meetings, and sharings but sometimes it's through the songs that He has wrote through human hands that brings us back, and give us the sense of direction in the midst of chaos. 

Was choosing songs just now and just sang the Amazing Grace for CG, which was really something very simple, but yet so deep in meaning...

'i once was lost, but now am found, was blind but now i see...' 

Dream Dream Dream

Love it when a lovely song cross my mind and i just have to put it here. it's a very old song but that's what makes it so nice :)

When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I want you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream 
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream 
Dream, dream, dream, dream 
Dream, dream
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream

Dream, dream, dream 
Dream

Fun with Pics

Found something interesting online so posted a few pics here haha!!

Witchcraft!

It is incredible when technologies move so much ahead about microchips and stuff, this guy decided to take a step back and invented something so simple yet so nice :)

BORED. from. MUGGING.

was reading the notes for my upcoming mid terms and realises something which really jolted me up:

"If (pmE)/(kT) is small

==> alpha is small, i.e. (pmE)/(kT) is small!" (Dielectric and Magnetic Properties, 2008)

It is not taken out of context, merely an exact phrase by itself in the notes. Sometimes i wonder am i doing engineering or am i doing philosophy. 

"Do you believe me??? why you dont believe me???" 

. . .

Updates

it's been very boring these few days - mugging, eating, sleeping, more mugging etc... and tmr's my first mid term paper, which i'm totally not fond of...

apparently after an in depth analysis, we found out that our lecturer whose test i will be doing tomorrow actually kinda suffers from insecurity problems. he doesnt really explain the question properly but just keep asking us: 

"do you believe me???? "

"no.." (i'm not joking.. a class mate answered this)

"why you dont believe me???"

"maybe it shud have been xxyyzzxxyyzz..."

"no no you're WRONG. you're WRONG. you have to do more readings... why you dont believe me???"

I'm actually not kidding and it goes on and on.. and tmr i'm taking his test. great.

O Happy Day :)

As i've already mentioned yesterday, it was a happy day and that's because yesterday was our anniversary!!! yeap yeap first year already lo :) was a day full of surprises and so i'm here to do a quick lil update on what went on :)

Went to pick Ms Pretty up during noon time and we headed off to lunch at the town area, eating our favorite subway and drinking coffee. after which we bought 2 tix for mama mia, which in my opinion is a really good show! ABBA is really good and those who like music and greece (no particular connection) should watch the show :) 

After that, we went to collect some "stuff" from a certain project friend of mine who was at Cathay waiting for me. Apparently, Ms Pretty wasnt very happy about it :( 

BUTTTTT!!! it turned out to be a nice planned surprise where Mr Loh was waiting for me at Cathay with guitar at hand. SO i played her a song right outside Cathay and gave her a lil present which would not be disclosed here in the blog. HAHA and sulk no more Ms Pretty became. 

After which we went on to Shokudo beneath Raffles City which serves Japanese food a la Marche style and my my, it's really good food to the maxxxxx. Doesnt come cheap tho but it was well worth it :) 

Managed to send Ms Pretty home and walaa!!! WHAT a day!! :) enjoy the pics :)

Ms Pretty with me outside Cathay where i played her a song :) 

One of the many delicious dishes from Shokudo, in this case the Jap omelette

Ms Pretty showcasing for the Jap pizza with eel and asparagus :) yummy!

Random shots :)

BLEAH :P

Favorite shot of the day :)

1 year lo! time passed so fast :)

Happy bouquet of flower

P/S once again many many thanks to Mr Loh for bringing down the guitar and for Ms Yap who lend me the guitar, even though both dont read my blog :D 

22nd Sept

Today is a special day. Really want to thank a certain Mr Loh for his kindness even though i'm 99% sure he wouldnt read my blog! lol! 

BUTTTT!!! Most importantly, want to thank God's grace for making today such a wonderful day :) 

tata!

MID SEM BREAK

is not a break at all. here's a song that's been ringing in my mind. i know it's a very verrrryyy old song but it's really sweet :)

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing

Watch you smile while you are sleeping

While youre far away dreaming

I could spend my life in this sweet surrender

I could stay lost in this moment forever

Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

Dont want to close my eyes

I dont want to fall asleep

Cause Id miss you baby

And I dont want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

Id still miss you baby

And I dont want to miss a thing

Lying close to you feeling your heart beating

And Im wondering what youre dreaming

Wondering if its me youre seeing

Then I kiss your eyes

And thank God were together

I just want to stay with you in this moment forever

Forever and ever

Dont want to close my eyes

I dont want to fall asleep

Cause Id miss you baby

And I dont want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

Id still miss you baby

And I dont want to miss a thing

I dont want to miss one smile

I dont want to miss one kiss

I just want to be with you

Right here with you, just like this

I just want to hold you close

Feel your heart so close to mine

And just stay here in this moment

For all the rest of time

Dont want to close my eyes

I dont want to fall asleep

Cause Id miss you baby

And I dont want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

Id still miss you baby

And I dont want to miss a thing

Dont want to close my eyes

I dont want to fall asleep

I dont want to miss a thing

:) :) :) 

Sept 16

2 things are happening. 

first things first. Will Malaysia, after about 5 decades of governing under the BN, be defected to the opposition under Mr Ibrahim? As the book of wisdom says, there's a time for everything. SO! let history take its course. 

SECOND. which in my opinion is well, concerns me more (at least in the short term). Crysis Warhead is coming out. 

Gold

That's what i did today - beginners in alchemy or rather known as the module AL1001. 

Step 1: put the glass slides in a beaker of alcohol, then place them in the sonicator to clean them for 15 min.

Step 2: careful dry the glass slides and label them appropriately

Step 3: Put them into the gold sputtering machine, and operate it with the push of a few buttons. 

Step 4: VOILA! your glass slides has turned into gold pieces! 

i really felt like this guy when i did the experiment today though... with all the buttons... 

Google Chrome

Yeap there's a new kid in town call Google Chrome - BROWSER. yes it's entering a titan-filled competition with firefox and ie leading the pack. Google is really taking over the world with all their chio and mac-like application compared to well, windows. 

i'm using it right now and well, you can find out more about it here if u want.. it's quite cool!! HAHA... 

Life's getting busy with TGIO coming up and all the gigs and not mentioning CG stuff and sharing... PLUS ohh! i have to study... things arent getting easier in 3rd year... sian-ness.. especially if u have roaches visiting you once in a while... 

talking about roaches, yesterday as i was lying on the bed, talking to grace on the phone i noticed something black-like moving on the top of the cupboard. it wasnt fast, just well, sort of hidden. to my horror, it's a roach camping there like nobody's business. 

realising it's presence, i quickly armed myself with the shieldtox rapidkill (yes i bought it for this purpose) and took aim, then sprayed right into its path. it squirmed into the cupboard coz i guess it wasnt air tight when it's closed... luckily, it was a store of my boxes so i quickly open the cupboard, sprayed a good deal into it and closed it again. 

goodness gracious i thought i'll have a hard time collecting the corpse but to my surprise, it came jumping down and squirming on the floor just after well, 10 seconds.. *splat* and it's done.. dont wish to have more of them coming into my room but looks like it's inevitable since my room's the nearest to the kitchen... 

Inspiration

To go on blogging that is. Lately, there has been none and frankly i think things are getting tougher by the year. with 9-hour lab week creeping up ur back, and endless tutorials and lectures pouring in and a business plan which is going nowhere, this seems like a sucky sem to me.

lately i've been kinda sick too, cough this and that... but i guess that's just the mindtrick weather that we have here in dear Singapore. It was sunny like hell in the morning the other day and the next thing you know, rain's pouring down with no reserve. just after half an hour, the sun's out again and it is still raining. well, if that doesnt make u catch ur cold, i dont know what does...

i've just missed the 3rd lecture of the sem. and counting. i hope i can catch up. sobs.

Staying Alive Staying Alive

yeap it sure is hard to stay alive with the lazy bug in me every day... actually a lot of things are happening / has happened around me but i'm just pure plain lazy to blog about it.. HAHA

there was hmm... senior's performance, hall bash, orientation, ibg... and oh gosh, how could i forget, the Olympics. To be really honest, i think Beijing really did a fantastic job this time round. It's kinda hard to imagine how Britain is going to catch up with this year's game in 2012.

It's also particularly brilliant that this year, there seems to be more extraordinary things happening - Phelps with his 8 golds, Bolt with his 9.69 slacker run. He could've ran 9.55 if he pushed on til the end and i only hoped that he's not on drugs... Finally, Jamaica is giving US a run for their money. For the past few olympics that happened in my short 22 lifespan, US has been dominating the track scene but now things have changed. In that past few olympics, US and Russia has been dominating the medal table, but that has changed too...

Alrite, enough with the games but just one last comment.. i was shocked to see BMX cycles running funny wavey tracks as an Olympic sport.. and squash is not?! hmm...

Oh well, going off for another gig at Munchie Monkeys..

1 YEAR PLUS!

in the midst of my busy schedule, i've forgotten that actually, i've been blogging for a year and more!!! that's despite some very cold months with about 1 - 2 posts per month but i would say that this is some progress that i've been making!! HAHA

i didnt use to blog for so long coz i'm just pure plain lazy but oh well, sometimes it's good to rant and chant on the internet for everybody to see once in a while.. mainly, i've been updating movies and games critics but very little of my life.. well, that's because... ehhmmm.. it's private.. and mainly because i'm just pure plain lazy..

and sadly, i dont fancy taking pictures even though i have a camera.. so oh well, you all can only see words and lesser picture...

blogging can be quite some chore sometime and so i shall keep myself from being a bore to you faithful readers out there :)

The Dark Knight

Gone were the days when Batman wears a greyish rubber suit with his faithful companion in a colourful red-green-yellow costume. over the last few years superheroes movie and most of the good movies seems to stem from comics. well other than Hancock, which was well... hmm i shant say more. The last Batman movie was really good with depth and darkness, all that a batman show should have. this one is even better. particularly with another one of my favourites: the joker. i remembered watching the first joker on screen about more than a decade ago. it's nothing like what i've just seen and yeah, the joker shows you that you dont need effects to be a good actor. one of the best shows this year that i've watched. 9/10

Red Cliff

Watching 2 movies in a week is something which i only did in holidays, which is like now... so let's hear it from the first one: it's been quite a while since they released an epic chinese movie and frankly, this film on one small part of the Han Dynasty will be one of the best that i've watched. heck i dont really know much about romance of the three kingdoms but this show sure inspired me to read more. sorry to those who're outside of asia it will only be released in 2009! overall it's a great film with cheem chinese and my personal favourite: mr guanyu with his green dragon crescent blade. 8/10 oh yar, the show is about the battle of red cliff. how could i forget that HAHA.
