It seems all my other buddies had died out on their blogging.. I did as well, but I guess a resurrection is needed once in a while.. Lets see, the Chinese New Year holidays are gone, and it's back to more projects and... more projects! The burden is really heavy on all of us, but I guess we'll juz have to bear wif it till the deadline finally arrives..

Anyway, below are juz some pics I took during my CNY "bai nian" spree.. They are taken at my grandma's anywayz, where all my relatives gather.. I dun noe when I'll be back to post again, but I will.. It's juz a matter of waiting.. LoL!

Me & my pretty cousin..

There are some things in life that we can't hide from. We can't hide from the past, neither can we hide from the relentless clockworks of time and fate. Frankly, I donnoe y I'm sounding so melodramatic, but I guess I juz can't keep everything inside all the time.. So how in the hell am I supposed to vent my inner struggles here while not revealing too much at the same time? I hope the following words will suffice..

Pulling myself from the aftermath of the past 1.5 years wasn't easy. Tose who know me well enuf wld noe exactly wad while tose who dun, plz dun even try to ask. I admit tat it wasn't anybody's fault but mine. I bought it upon myself & tat's as simple as it gets.

After being thru Hell and back, it's not like I started to look for "greener pastures" immediately. In fact, I tink it was a full 8 months b4 someone finally took over tat scar in me. I tried to stay in the shadows abt it, but of cos, pple can alwayz see thru the disguise. How to deal wif it? I guess playing along is the onlie way to go but I dun blatantly tok or declare abt it of cos. But I juz feel sometimes all the jokes can get a bit too far. It's ok for dem to make fun of me abt it, but I HATE to see it when it is her getting the brunt of it. Yes, tese tings r unavoidable in tese situations, but I juz hope it doesn't get too far.

The odds are already stacked HUGELY against me, near-impossible in fact. But the inevitability of the question of committment lingers. I had placed too much stakes in the past, and when I lost, I got hit fuckin' hard.. Right in the heart. The future seems bleak, and I pray tat for once, just fuckin' once, someplace, somewhere, somehow, fate will at least gimme some slack..

2005-01-02T22:19:00.000+08:00

Yes, your eyes are not playing tricks on you.. Tis is a post! Well, it's the dawn of the new year, so I tot I'd at least show some responsibility for my cob-web growing blog. Lets see.. 2004 had indeed been an eventful year.. Lotsa stuff happened and I dun tink I wanna list dem all but lets juz simply say it's been another year in my life. How cliche can tat get? C'mon, gimme a break!

Thankfully, new year's eve for me was great as I went on a karaoke outing wif 4 of my frenz from my poly, Chin Eng, Sallys (Qiu and Choo) and Pei Shan. Wif my limited knowledge of Chinese songs, I can't fully agree my money spent was worth it, but for the duration spent, I'd say it was! All in all, it was great.. And one more thing, why did u all sabo me to sing such a difficult song at the start! Wei Yi by Wang Li Long was such a high key song loh! Liewz.. LoL!

I had no idea CE was doing tat pose.. Wad a natural! :D

The ladies.. PS sang a lot tat dae :P

2004-11-28T21:17:00.000+08:00

Life had been pretty stagnant these days as well as my blog.. Hmm, my work contract finished a week ago already, so I am pretty much slacking tese days.. Sounds like a boring life? Hell no! How much I relish freedom now. The keyboard & mouse at my grasp, Half-Life 2 to kill the time.. Ahh yes, this is the life.. Other than tat, I'm kinda sad my poly class wun be having a proposed Sentosa outing due to lots of pple being busy wif work etc.. Oh well, no harm done.. ;) More updated coming soon!

Ahhh... Better than drugs...

2004-11-12T01:34:00.000+08:00

Wooahhh, has it been tis long since I neglected my blog?! Oh my, time does fly indeed.. Oh well, been too fuckin' busy at work to even have the will to blog I guess.. All my frenz who r working mostly do 6-8 hours shifts but for me 10 hours is already like a blessing! I work 12 hours on both weekends and public holidays!! I'm juz a fuckin' part-timer fot Christ's sake.. Haiz.. But thank god the job makes up wif the pay, which actually astonished me when I checked my bank acct.. Note: Just so to ensure pple won't ask me to belanjah dem meal, I won't reveal my pay **Cue evil laugh** ;)

Other than tat, life is good.. Slacking at home is really so damn relaxing to me now as off-days r like blessings.. LoL! Oh yeah, and Half-Life 2 is finally coming out and I pre-ordered it! It's been a long 3-year wait for wad is speculated as the best Pc game ever made in history.. Addiction & euphoria, here I come! 1 more week onlie!

When you lookin into the eyes of the one you used to love, time slows down.. Memories flash by.. Heartbreaks & scars..

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Holding you dearly through life's tearful rains,
Just to prove my love, I fail again & again.
The things between us that set us apart,
Still cry for forgiveness, from my broken sad heart.
The truth that I love you, what more can I say?
Then again to be with you, I get down & I pray.
You tell me that we're finished, to forget the past & dry my sad eyes
But my heart will not listen, for your love it cries.
You tell me it's over, you say we're through,
But it's the love from my heart that stops me from letting go of you.
But hope for me is already so slim,
When so often you are together with him.
My being cries to love and hold on to you again,
In hopes for the better with less sadness & pain.
Sleepless nights & striken with sickness I am enduring,
With no sense of time and a conscience that's weakening.
Countless times you've forgiven me for all my wrongs,
But I must write this poem to express my pain which lasts so long.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

And yes, I wrote it myself..

2004-10-22T22:15:00.000+08:00

Results are out for my exams! Lets see..

HPI: D+
Pmic: C+
FPath: C+
OC2: C
Biochm2: C
CSAS3: B
PSpk: B

Hmm, judging by my "mediocre" achievements, I guess I am not too proud am I? LoL! Ok, to tink of the bright side, everything in my results are 60% or above (except HPI), which means it's an acceptable results. But I was disappointed nonetheless, cuz I was really aiming for more B's than this. HPI (Human Physiology & Immunology) was a real shocker as I was aiming high for it.. I have maintained so-so results for it in the tests in the 70% range, but I screwed it for the exams?!

I guess it's better to have negative feelings after exams more, as the results which come out is alwayz the OPPOSITE of how u expect it.. LoL! So if u feel confident, ur results will be sh1tty.. But if u feel bad abt the results, it will somehow come out better! Ahhh, the irony of life in all it's fuckin' glory!

2004-10-19T22:11:00.000+08:00

Been some time since I blogged. Been really busy at work lately I guess.. Alrite, to tose unenlightened few, I am currently working in Hangten (Harbourfront Centre) as a part-time customer sales-assistant. Well, my position/role is pretty simple really.. Lets just say it's known as slave. I absolutely hate working 12 hours on weekends, really spoils the "Sunday-mood" in me..

Work is pretty straightforward, I tell would-be customers abt the offers as well as assist dem in every which way from finding cloth sizes to answering ques of all types (one even asked me why I got tis job?!). Of cos, folding and arranging the clothes in the outlet had become such a routine tat I swear I can drift away into sub-consciousness w/o even noeing tat I've folded over 200 shirts/bottoms! Oh well, it's my job ain't it? Haha..

Alrite, 'nuff said.. To all my frenz & buddies out tere: Do drop by if u r free.. I work on Tue, Thur, weekends & public holidays.. Yes, I can trryyy to give u discounts.. Muahaha.. Anywayz, staff members can purchase merchandise for 50% discount, so u guyz shld noe who to refer to if u happen to like a particular HangTen product..

2004-10-13T22:04:00.000+08:00

Lets see... Went for a job interview today to apply as a customer sales assistant for the clothing line, HangTen.. Well, the position for the job basically means shop slave in simple english anywayz.. LoL! Oh well, I guess it's still better than idling at home wasting time away huh?

Made my way to the super-ulu HangTen HQ at an industrial area along Kallang Ave.. I tot I was the onlie soul applying for the job but damn I'm wrong.. Abt a dozen or so pple were already present awaiting for their turns in the agonizingly-slow interview queue. Cld tell tat most of dem were from poly though, all lookin' for jobs I guess (well, who isnt?)..

** 2 fuckin'-long-hours later**

MY TURN!! Hell, I almost blew my top off after such a long wait.. I told myself "Man.. If I dun get tis job, I'm gonna be so pissed." The interview was pretty standard and by-the-book.. Explain all the terms and conditions plus all the financial gagglefuck and wad-not's. So, I was posted to the Harbourfront Centre outlet where I heard it's recently opened and the biggest HangTen outlet in spore.. Hmm.. Oh well, better than no work I guess.. Gonna work on Tue, Thur, weekends and public holidaes.. 4 days a week, 8-hour shifts from early noon to nite..

And God said "Let there be money!!"

Ahhh.. Wad is a job without paperwork? :P

2004-10-10T22:40:00.000+08:00

What a day!! Today was my house-warming party & boy was it crowded! A total of close to 120 pple turned up in total (coming at different time intervals of cos) & mostly imprtly, my frenz & buddies who came! My sincerest thanks to all those I know who came & made the party all the more lively to me..

The pple started flooding at ard 12+ & the buffet lunch was GREAT!! It was really crowded in a jiffy & me and my buddies cld hardly move our way thru! Oh yeah, list of pple include weixiong, kel, chin eng, ivan, sally, pei shan, liwei, fangqi, adeline & gladys! Thanks so much again for coming guyz!

So many pple.. So little time..

*Slurp* *Gobble* Yummmyyy..

Everyone pretty much lounged in the living room to play a game of Daidee and engage in conversation. The food wasn't bad, according to my frenz.. Kudos for the catering service! Oh yeah, did I mention how noisy it was! We had to raise our voice juz to tok to each other at times..

TV'ing and daidee'ing..

Yes, it was this "cosy"! LoL!

The event lasted till the nite at 930pm. That is when all my relatives came. Another 60+ of dem and more food! Hell, my calorie intake today is too high due to all the curry rice, fried stuff & soft drinks! Gotta burn all tat away tml I guess.. Overall, it was an unforgettable day.. The clean-up was a bitch though! LoL! But who cares, no good party ends clean..

2004-10-09T22:38:00.000+08:00

If ya sMmMmeEeeEeeELlLLlL... Ok, it's not the Rock, but it's F-R-E-E-D-O-M!! Finally, after 2 complete weeks of fuckin' slogging the notes & books, the exams r finally OVER!! Really busy preparing for the house-warming party tml.. Can't wait till all my frenz come over.. I'll keep tis post short, cuz tml I'm gonna snap lotsa pics to post up here! Oh yeah.. The taste of freedom is better than XXX at times.. LoL!!

2004-10-05T20:32:00.000+08:00

Man, how long has it been? Well, had my first exam paper today & it was ok I guess.. Had to say I wasted time revising on some topics as they didn't come out in the questions at all! But thank goodness the rest of the que I managed to answer all of dem. I guess exam papers are alwayz a gamble huh? Sometimes it all depends on wad ques comes out to either save u or screw u..

Been really on edge tese daes.. All the information crammed into my head is really taking its toll on me. I've been losing sleep man! This is so much harder than the times in Year 1 as our current subjects really contain a gagglefuck (yes, it's a word invented by urs truly) of super-chim words. Heck, some people dun even noe how to pronounce the subjects I take (frenz outside my course of cos). Man.. Can things get any more ironic?

Awrite, time to hit the books again. I fuckin' swear I'm countin' down to my last paper on Saturday (which is an open-book paper) & then finally the sweet sweet taste of deli-fuckin-cious freedom!! Oh notes & books, I despise thee!

2004-09-28T23:08:00.000+08:00

Alrite, been quite a long day as we got 2 revision sessions 2day (Fpath & HPI).. Was kinda relieved some topics were excluded for FPath as all of us are really on the edge of memory overload.. Actually I was supposed to go hang out wif my frenz at Bedok Reservoir at nite to sorta "celebrate" the mooncake festival by playing wif fire & all.. But decided not to go as I was really shagged when I came home & I really need to study hard tis time ard.. Kinda sad tat I can't make it cuz I'm sure I missed out on all the fun..

Riiittee.. Remember when I said I bought a new Logitech MX-510 mouse & how it kicks ass? Well, finally I proved my point (once again!) by OwNiNg pple online in a game of CounterStrike V1.6.. Btw, server is the ]dMc[ deathmatch mod server.. Time span was 30min.. And I topped everyone by attaining a wicked-sick 195 frags to 130 deaths.. Now's TATS skill.. L33t all the way baby!
Note: If ANYONE happened to beat tis score on the same server, plz find me..

See what I mean? My name is ]dRaKe[ (who doesn't noe tat?) LoL! 195 frags man!

2004-09-27T23:16:00.000+08:00

First official weekday of the study week "vacation", and I onlie read 2 topics from HPI.. How proud I am! Well, I guess it's a sign for my oncoming doom.. :P Awrite.. Went to sch todae at 12pm for my "interview" regarding a project of mine where my grp was asked & tested on our knowledge of wad we did.. It was ok really, not too hard.. Thank goodness for tat..

Then went out to watch a movie (yes... we're in holidae mood already) wif wx, ce, kel and raymond. We caught New Police Story starrring none other than Jackie Chan.. It was a SUPERB movie, the best of the police series movies by my opinion. Nicholas Tse played the role of being Jackie's partner-cum-sidekick in the movie & I have to say tat I'm really impressed wif his acting tis time as he plays the comedian in the movie! It's a really gd change of roles from his usual bad-boy image in other movies u see.. Kudos for tat! Overall, I give New Police Story 4.5/5! Catch it man!

Oh yeah, did I mention I bought my dream mouse 2dae? Yeah, yeah.. So wad? It's onlie a mouse rite? Well, being the professional gamer I am (e-mail me for a 1-on-1 challenge anytime for any game) , I need a kick-ass mouse which has superb tracking and sheer smoothness.. Well, my wait is over & I finally got my dream Logitech MX-510 mouse! It costed $98.. Well, some pple ask me y I dun get the wireless or bluetooth version.. Well tat's becuz cordless mice r more prone to spoilage & wear u see.. Their batteries have to be replaced constantly and the bluetooth requires an independant power source on its own! Tat aint worth the money man! Well, after using it, my CS & DoD (Day of Defeat) performace increased drastically.. I fragged so many pple I can swear my mouse is doing the aiming for me! Haiz.. I shld have taken down screenshots at the end of each game to prove my claim but I forgot! Oh well, next time then.. :P

The Logitech MX-510.. Power in your grasp..

2004-09-24T21:28:00.000+08:00

*Cue evil laugh* MuaHahHAhAhHaHa! After 1 week of slogging thru all the cursed project deadlines, things have finally came to an end! Today marks the last official day of sch, with the onstart of the 1-week study break in preparations for the semester exams the week after. Isn't it amazing how fast time flies? Yeah, it's cliche.. But so fuckin' true aint it? Ended sch at 1pm today, did nth spectacular except bringing my digicam to the sch for the 1st time to snap some uneventful pics.. Went to the library after sch to finish up my HPI tutorial wif chin eng and raymond.. peishan and sally joined us too since they were free..

A shot taken of my neat & tidy way of doing HW.. Chin Eng hard at work in the bkgrd..

Disappointingly, no arrangements were made by my clique to go hang out after sch, so everyone went home after tat.. Was freakin windy when I reached home.. Almost all my hair got blown off when I opened the window.. Dun believe me? Well, the pic below will justify the true power & relentlessness of Mother Nature! *cue dramatic music!*

Now I noe why Dad told me to not use the fan in the day..

Alrite, besides tese pathetic activities tese daes, I guess settling into my new home is already out of the question.. I swear I sleep better here! And I am SOoOoOo hoping I'll get to have a hot neightbour to noe.. Hmm, I'll juz cast my disillusioned-fantasizing-self for once.. Until then, stay logged to The Brig!

2004-09-19T20:57:00.000+08:00

Slick & hell is how I wld describe today.. Well, today is the official day I move into my new home, which means I wun be sleepin' at the old house anymore! It's been 16 years & I have to admit tat I'm gonna really miss it, though it's infested wif mosquitoes & all sorts of unearthly beasts. LoL! ;) The moving was tedious, as we had to carry all the stuff downstairs manually as tere was no lifts in my old home.. It's juz a 4-storey flat & ironically, I live on the 4th storey. Today marks the day of Operation Move-Lots-of-Stuff (TM).

16 years of junk.. Man, did we buy tat much washing powder?

Thankfully, lots of my relatives as well as my dad's frenz came over to lend a hand. The result? An entourage of helpers & an entire convoy of vehicles to the rescue! Oh yeah, juz in case u're wonderin', I helped out in the moving too.. So dun tink I'm juz a "slacker" who snap pics! LoL!

The convoy is here! Man the .50 cals!

After abt 1.5hours, we were locked & loaded to set off for the new brig.. err.. home. The convoy rolled off with my dad in the 1st vehicle, me in the last. Why the wacky arangement? Beats me.. Guess it's all the diff stuff we're carryin'! Resistance was minimal as soon as the green light was given to commence Operation Move-Lots-of-Stuff (TM). Of cos, it wld nv be complete wif a final salute to the old headquarters. /me salutes!

Farewell to the cave where I lived in for 16 years..

Moving all the stuff up 24 storeys was hard.. But of cos wif lifts lah! LoL! I wld like to take tis opportunity to thank the Lord for the invention of the trolley. Without it, my life wld have been an eternal struggle of bearing heavy burdens.. Ok, ok, I'm getting poetic here.. LoL! As promised... And by popular demand... **Cue drum roll** The view from my room! It faces the East-South-East of Singapore. Basically, it juz faces the whole of Hougang.

The view I see each morning I wake up.. And when I turn my head to the left when I'm using the com.. I sense envy! ;)

Trust me, a normal rain at this height.. Feels like a storm!

Yup, it rained todae! Though it lasted very short & it's not even heavy at ground lvl, 24 storeys up, it feels like a storm! The wind is unbelievable and I almost had all my hair blown off! LoL! Ok, really tired now.. More pics & posts of my furnishings in my house coming soon! Ciao!

2004-09-18T20:53:00.001+08:00

Ok, guess my blog was kinda stagnant tese daes yeah? But worry not my ilk! I'm back with a vengeance! Armed with a really awesome Canon Ixus digicam costing almost $700, I snapped some of the going-ons tat explains y I'm negelcting my blog tese daes..

For tose who noe the demon-me, I had been busy moving houses tese daes.. Tat's rite! Urs truly is finally settling into my new house soon! Located at Fernvale Road and 24 storeys (yes, it's tat high!) above the tainted Earth, my new abode is indeed sth I am quite proud of.. Ok, the contractors did one hell of a job, but tat doesn't mean they have to let my family wait for almost 2 years when the moving schedule was already issued rite? Alrite, the wait is over.. And so, I decided to snap some pics of my 70% complete home.. Living room I had left out as it's still under "construction".. LoL!

First stop, *cue drum-roll*, MY ROOM!! Alrite, from the pics, it may look small & uninteresting, but do understand I havent put up all my stuff & deco yet.. I have to admit it's small (cuz my sis took the bigger room.. -_-"), the color theme that kinda resembles tat of a Japanese home, consisting of wodden furniture & slightly-oranged tinted white painted walls really makes it feel more spacious. Oh yeah, the integrated cupboards & wardrobe into the walls was really slick too, saves space & looks ergonomic! I didn't take the pics of the bed & wardrobe as they r not "complete" yet.. Here's the pics!

My semi-furnished brig..

My sister's room is actually bigger, but all her integrated display cabinets & furniture made it feel smaller than mine! Muahaha! I guess gerls r all liddat eh? It's nice though, using light-bluish themes wif metallic framed furniture.. More "modern" than mine in a way.. Still, I curse her for picking the bigger room!

My sister's sty.. Note absence of bed.

Perhaps now u may be wondering abt the nifty parts of my room, so I decided to take some pics of my already assembled collection of computer games! All my gd frenz noe tat I'm an avid PC gamer, so obviously my collection has to be astounding. *Evil tone: MuahahaHHahahahHAha!* I havent counted them, but they require 2 whole rows of my integrated "floor cupboards" to contain dem.. I arranged all of dem in alphabetical order for easy access.. Yes, I have THAT many.. Note: The pics show onlie 60% of my games.. Wahaha!

Games.. L-O-T-S of games! (sry for spoofing the Matrix tere!) Row A - K shown..

And M-O-R-E games! I told you I was a PC gamer.. Row M - Z here..

Ok, I'll end here! More pics r coming up including panaromic views! Yup, tat is a must I guess, since I live on the 24th storey. Stay logged to the Brig!

2004-09-13T23:04:00.000+08:00

Awriiite, I noe I noe... I promised tt I'll post pics & a review of my ice-skating experience on Saturdae, but I guess stupidity got the better of me.. LoL! Apparently, I tot chin eng wld be going tat dae, & and he already agreed to bring his digicam along. But he can't make it & the fact tat both ps & sally have digicams nv crossed my mind.. -_-" Yes, I am tat poor.. LoL! Man, after I move into my new house, I MUST get one!

Well, we were actually supposed to be on the ice by 4pm u see.. But due to the usual fact tt all of us r late, we onlie started skating at 5pm. Quite a bunch of us were tere.. Tere were wx, liwei, sally, ps, gladys, sandy, jh, zc, lydia, weibin, yx, terry & aurelius.. 14 in total.. It was at fuji Ice Palace btw, at Jurong East..

It was onlie my 2nd time skating tt dae & the moment I got on the ice, I was already off-balance.. Slowly but surely, the "feel" came back & I was gliding in 10min's time.. Praise the Ice God (if tere's one) for not making me fall tat dae! Hmm, although I have to admit my skating stance is kinda strange, I'm juz glad tat I can cruise and glide already.. Jianhua was of cos the best among us, trying to attain his so-called "light speed".. Oei jh, get sound speed 1st can? LoL! But he's gd lah nonetheless..

Of cos, not all of us noe how to skate entirely.. Sally, ps and liwei require some assistance at the start. Liwei of cos got wx to guide her thru, whereas ps got *ahem* u-noe-whu.. Sooo, I guess tat leaves me to help sally! Haha! :D Ok! Ok! Ok! I did hold her hand, but tat is the ONLY way to help during ice-skating rite? Thankfully, for a person who onlie skated twice (sally oso), I tink I'm quite glad I didn't make her fall (me oso).. :P Hmm, but it was really an unforgettable moment lah.. But plz dun misunderstand pple.. So we went on skatin' & skatin'.. Gladys, playful as alwayz, sneaking behind me and giving me a push.. Thou shalt not succumb to thee! But was kinda glad Gladys went oso, she's juz a fun person to be wif even though I make fun of her all the time.. *evil laughter*

All good things come to an end, so after abt 2+ hours, we left the place. Went to Jurong Point for dinner & headed home after tat.. T'was quite a long dae, but fun it was.. Had to admit I was missing someone on the way home.. But it ain't tt imprt anywayz, so I hope busybodies dun mock me in future.. You have been warned!

2004-09-10T21:34:00.000+08:00

Oh my... Guess I neglected my blog for a loOoOoOong time! >_< Oh well, been f***ing busy lately in sch (and I tot this week can slack.. -_-") due to the CSAS project. Gonna host my radio show in a few minutes' time, so I'm not gonna make this post long.. LoL! Oh yeah, going ice-skating tml wif my AB21 pals, can't wait for it! Been so long since I did that.. Post guaranteed to come! And pics too! Peace out dawgs! :P

2004-09-04T22:06:00.000+08:00

Finally! A day when I can wake up late!! With most of the projects coming to an end, things seem to be finally cooling down... But tt doesn't mean I can slack too much lahz, since the semester exams are just a mere 4 weeks away.. Damn, time really does pass quick doesn't it? Just when you thought there's still a lot of time ahead, you about to advance to the 2nd semester of Year 2 in poly already.. :P

Well, my day's been pretty ok.. Slacked pretty much at home & went for a haircut.. LoL! Initially, the tot of styling my hair struck me, but I guess laziness juz took the better of me.. Anywayz, maintenance of hair is one of the most tedious & awful things on earth ain't it? Then came home & finished up my tutorials for the week ahead.. Got no choice since I got 3 tests in a span of 5 days! So much for "slacking" huh?

Can't help but onlie tink of how much time tere is left for me, now that I'm almost 3/4 of my way from graduating... To tose who know me well enuf, you shld noe wad I'm tokin abt.. Been waiting for you for roughly more than a year already.. But no matter how many times I promised u tat I'll try my very best to give you up, the road ahead will always wind & divert back to ur path again.. Hmm, guess love is really a bitch of a test ain't it?

2004-09-01T21:37:00.000+08:00

A super-long day it had been.. We had our OC2 (organic chemistry) lab till 630pm! Haiz.. Really hate to do "overtime" work.. Came home really worn out but thank goodness all the projects are coming to an end. ;) Just finished some of my homework and decided to give my blog a little update.. LoL!!

More Doom 3 goodness once again! By popular demand by my gaming frenz (who dun even post in the tag -_-"), they wanted to see some pics of me in action wif the wide array of weapons in the game.. Well, I tot I'd get things started wif the bread-&-butter gun of Doom 3.. The ALMIGHTY SHOTGUN!! More weapons coming rite up! Oh yeah, I'll feature more monsters soon besides these fat & ugly zombies.. :) Some r juz too fast and scary to take a screenshot!

This zombie is SO dead.. Err, wait.. Zombies are dead anyway.. :P

**KABANG!!!** The shotgun nv disappoints.. Is that ur brain?! LoL!

Awww man!! Now I gotta use all the CleanWipes & Kleenex on my screen!

2004-08-30T17:56:00.000+08:00

Being a very uneventful day... Went to sch for PMic lecture but it ended after a mere 40min when it was supposed to be 2hr. -_-" Aint tat bad really, as me and my project went over to the lab to check out our experiments. Thankfully, they turn out well.. :) Thank god I no need to come to sch for nth.. LoL!

Hmm, came home and got nothing to do, so fired up a game of Doom 3, which is undoubtedly the SCARIEST game on Earth. It's a shooter game, where you play the role of a space marine gunning through a research facility which was "infested" by demons and the undead after things went horribly wrong when scientists opened a portal to Hell. Ok, the story is ironic and dumb, but who cares? The graphics in the game is top-notch & I am proud to say my computer is able to handle the game (which has super-high requirements). Here are some screenshots I took when playing thru the game.. Got too bored u see, so why not take some pics from my frightening adventures.. LoL! Enjoy!

This is just wrong...

Wow! What a day it was! Though it was really sucky to head back to school on a Saturday to do lab work for our PMic (Pharmaceutical Microbiology) project. Arrived in sch at 9am & we were busy preparing all the stuff the moment we stepped into the lab. Guess everyone doesn't want to waste precious time on a Saturday eh? Haha! :P Spent abt 4hrs before finally finishing up. Managed to complete 4/5 tests on a single day, so I was pretty pleased with my group! Thx Hafeez, Adeline, Xinyu & Xiaoting! U guyz r the best!

Yours truly hard at work. Professionalism + Seriousness 100% :P

After the agonizing work in the lab, I managed to get good ol' Benny & Feez to accompany me for lunch & a movie! After much consideration, we decided to catch Aliens Vs Predator! Feez had to watch it for a second time as he already caught it! Haha! U're the best man, for not minding to catch it again wif us. :) The movie was grreeeaat! Being someone who watched ALL the Predator (Predator 1 & 2) & Aliens (Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien: Resurrection) movies, seeing these 2 great beasts duke it out was certainly eye-candy! Haha! :D *RRRAAARRWW!* A great end to a tiring day! Hehe.. Oh yeah, being a movie critic, AvP gets **3.5/5** from me! :) It's good, but not excellent.. But still, worth the catch for any Alien/Predator fans! Ok then, I'll stop here.. Ciao!

Pic taken during the ads before the movie began.. LoL!

CCN day... Seems like it's onlie ytd tat my care grp took part in it on the 8th of August! Well, tis year's CCN seems to be less exciting than last year's.. Maybe it's because I'm not taking part in it or sth lah, but who cares.. LoL!! Lotsa food stalls, Henna art stalls and even a manicure stall! :P Was walking to the business sch after my OC2 tuturial wif Xiong, Liwei & Raymond when we were approached by this gal who wanna sell us a pizza for $12. Well, we considered at first but gluttony soon got the better of us.. Then... ...

When u're REALLY hungry, this is tempting...

Yours truly doing the opening honours of sprinkling chilli flakes on the pizza... Mmmmm.. M-U-S-T... E-A-T!!!

Man.. Didn't noe my hair sucks so much from the side view.. :P Haha! Anyway, me and my palz devoured the pizza in under 10min and shortly after, we went on a complete tour of the school to check out the CCN atmosphere.. Not all tat exciting really.. :P
Then, went to have lunch and played pool with xiong, liwei, peishan and both sallys! Haha! Have to say Sally Qiu looked really cute in her specs.. Hehe.. :P Felt kinda down during the day due to some things I heard, but I'm ok already.. Thx Ben for sending me the pics.. Damn, I'm really duing to get a digicam.. LoL!!

Lets see, I'm pretty much getting the hang of blogging already, although I noe I am terribly outdated to have started it 3 days ago.. -_-" But still, better than no blog rite.. Haha! :P People have been telling me why I nv mention abt my love life in my blog.. Well, it's really personal stuff rite, so why should I?! ;) The most they can get out of it is the template of my blog, reflecting all the pain. I'm sure tat it speaks for itself already abt my love life! Haha! Ok lah, it's actually not all tat bad lahz, I'm not such a devastated person actually.. But u can be surprised at the truth of my real life.. :(

Okaayy.. I can smell the aroma of dinner from my kitchen already.. Mum, u're the best!! Haha! K then, I'll stop here.. I'll try to upload some pics soon.. Else tis blog is gonna be sOoOo boring.. :P

My second post, and gave my template a real revamp tis time. :P Today's juz another boring day in sch.. Full of lectures.. AaRgH.. If tere's one thing I can do as a school director/principal, tat's to limit ALL lectures to 1 hour max. Tat's cuz I fall asleep SO easily in 2hr lectures! Haha!

My public speaking speech went well, but seeing a camera in front of me is kinda.. .. strange? U see, we're supposed to do this self-evalution thingie today.. So each of us brought a CDR and we'll stand in front of the camera in class where our speech is filmed. -_-" Then u write a report on ur strength/weaknesses through ur observations of urself!

Awrite, tink I'll stop here for 2dae.. Pics shall be up in a few days while I figure out this blog thingie..

My Maiden Post!

Hey tere pple! Yes, yes, the inevitable influence of online blogging had finally made me do this. This defilement of a duty shall be fulfilled by me on a daily basis.. If I am free tat is! LoL! Ok, this is my very first time doing a blog, so excuse me if my blog template sucks, wahaha.. :D It's the only blog skin tat I found nice although I wld have chose sth more surreal & abstract.

Lets see, finished all my tutorials for the week today and spent the whole day at home! Then watched the super-kanchiong table-tennis match between Li Jia Wei & tat Korean. So damn sad tt Jia Wei lost, but I have to say she really put up a superb effort!
