Merry New Year!
What do most people do on NY Eve? Hmm ... Partying? Going out with better halves? Sleeping at home? Well, what did I do? I spent 2ish hours (I think) overcloacking my ATI 1900. Sounds geeky huh. Finally got tired of the stupid crashes when I run graphic applications. Updating to newer ATI drivers didn't seem to help, so I decided to load up Omega again. Hopefully it'll be good.
So since it came with ATITray, I decided to overclock my chip, she's running at 570:639 MHz now (cpu:memory). Would have tried for a higher speed but the Resurrection kept crashing when I adjusted the memory speed. Well, this configuration so far seems pretty okay, temperature doesn't go too high, below 80 degs.
Overclocked Resurrection's cpu too. She's running at 1.90GHz now. Maybe should try to clock her abit more. Didn't run any benchmarks though, although the video portion looks good. Now I just need to play a few games and test the stability out.
Finished watching what Family Guy episodes I have, so I decided to drag out my Visionaries to watch. Such an old cartoon! Heh, everyone has colour coordination, blue cheetahs, green wyvern looking creatures ... Silly dialogue, heh.
Way to spend the New Year ^^
Where's my darling DA huh? Would love to feel his presence around, heh.
Sigh, I'm perpetually waiting ... When will this waiting end? ;_;

The Truth behind Bears and Cokes
Woot
Final verdict.. it's not great, it looks well, HKish at least, but it's all clothes! Boring! There's a big Toys R Us there, and I was remarking to GPB that in the next 5 years or so the death and decay will set in, like to old shopping centres. Like there's this Toys R Us at Tampines Mall, it opened with a bang, was big and such, but now it's just a shrivelled up shell of its glory days. Maybe I'm being too negative, heh. But that's what I see.. the Toys R Us at Vivocity looks so big and grand now, with your resident Wise Talking Tree and ponies.
Actually the pony looks quite cool! I've always wanted a horse, it costs more than 天使 II though, and 天使 is probably more practical than getting a pony which Really Looks at You, Sniffs and Snorts, and Really Eats a Carrot! Fur's a bit matty though.
After playing around with foam swords which GPB heroically grabbed by the blade, we adjourned to Siglap for dinner.. Hehe. Nice thai food =p the cotton fish felt a bit .. cold though. sigh.
GPB let me drive the Troop Transport when we returned to it after dinner. Did a few rounds around the parking lot to get some confidence, twas rainy and everything was a bit blurry. Tried a bit of parking, but it wasn't very good T_T First time driving an auto gear car! Didn't know that if you engage D or R, the car will auto muve liao! Amazing! Drove out of the carpark after 2ish rounds and started driving back home. Almost missed a traffic light T_T. I SAW it, but it just didn't quite register .. too used to just blaze past traffic lights *cough cough* Anyways, managed to make it home in 1 piece, even stopped nicely by the curb ^^ So uber /flex. Can't wait for next week .. anyone . ... dare to sit in my car? hehehehehe.
Thanks GPB! =p
And thanks for the cardo! The er truffles somehow became abit er .. mashed up, but I think they are still edible. *peer* o.o
Hehe <3!

Credit Cardo!
Under "Name of Relative or Friend not living with you", I put down someone I've never met IRL, but whom is closer to me than some of the IRL ppl I know ....
Very odd feeling I must say .. it looks funny whenever I look at it <_<>_>
So ........ odd.

Tenshi II
Tenshi II
Can't hack his firmware yet though sadly..
失くしたものすべて 愛したものすべて
The engraving on him .. sadly no space for the complete phrase
The complete one is
失くしたものすべて 愛したものすべて
この手に抱きしめて 現在は何処を彷徨い行くの
Where do I wander off to now, holding in my arms all I've lost and loved?
So the top part is just somewhat like, everything I've lost, everything I've loved..
Theory
She's crazy, there's no ways about it nor any way to mince it. However, in saying that, I'll like to qualify that I'm insane too. It has always been my theory that everyone is insane in one way or another, just that most hide it really well. The ones who don't, well, end up in the mental hospitals.
So we live in the House of Horrors, where decay and insanity continuously wears down its inhabitants.
Can't really help it I guess.
Sometimes really hate living in SG. It's so difficult, the only escape out of this place is .. marriage? Lolz. It's not true, no matter how many times you say it, there's other ways but .. sigh.
Sigh. *huggles DA* .. DA is insane too, long years of isolation did this. Mine? Major loss. We are all nuts! Zomg. Miss my DA, my precious precious DA. He's darkness yet he is my light. Curl up somewhere and hide, although it's hardly my style.
Just want to escape some place, but sadly it's very difficult to find anywhere to escape now.
Flee! Just flee to somewhere, never come back.
Gah! Stupid spam!
Good Day, my Friend!
I feel like I am a little lost kitten. I don't have a strong man's shoulder to lay on. I am writing to you as I
want to find a husband to live all life with him only!
I want to open my heart to my man, to give myself to him, to support him every day and to build happiness together,
walking along the life way hand in hand... I miss badly the wonderful romantic moment when a man is whispering the
words of tenderness into woman's ears, when she is holding his strong hand and looking into his smart eyes and they
both feel that there is nothing around, just them... I want to be happy... If you want to correspond with me, please
write http://datingforalonelys.com/myideallove
Waiting for your answer:)

Egad .. Stop it with the spam already.. don't make me switch emails again >:E

He's back! .. kinda!
Day 2 .. and 3! of KL
See how much energy I have =p
Day 2
Woke up and went for prata. It was sooo yummy! Crispy, not too oily ..... cheap .. so so so YUMMY. The milo was fantastic too! Not thin .. nice and thick .. so yummy! In the end 3 pratas + 1 milo + 1 teh tarik = 5ish ringgit! zomg!
After breakfast we walked all the way to Times Square to do some shopping (well bought nothing in the end) but went to the amusement park instead. It was pretty good actually. The roller coaster was pretty fun. H was screaming like a girl while I was sitting there concerned about Malaysian safety inspections and stuff. Maybe should have just tried to enjoy myself, but maybe I worry too much =p
Had lotsa fun there, the favourite rides were the roller coaster and the er .. Galaxy Attack or something or other. It's that machine which rotates you around a pivot .. er you get upside down .. and stuff. It was fun!
Throughout the rides I was thinking .. hmm if an alien were to come and visit us and see that amusement park .. Well maybe not an alien .. someone like 暗闇の天使, they probably won't understand it. I know DA would be asking questions like why are you paying money, time (to develop, build blah) things which spin you around and make you feel sick? (ie DNA machine (w/e it's called).. I saw ppl looking rather sick when they got off the machine :S)
After getting spun around for a bit, we decided to call it quits and went to have yummy ice cream. The server dude seemed rather clueless and almost forgot to gimme my toppings! >:E. I had nuts though! NUTS! Nutty ice cream! YUMMMMMM
Nuts are the best things in the universe.
Walked back to Puduraya in search of the Fabled Chinatown™ after ice cream munchies. Weather was pretty good, but Puduraya's damn polluted. All the coaches .. pfft .. bad air! :S After walking for quite a bit, we felt we had reached it (cos of some sign .. a road sign!) and crossed the road. Instead of seeing chinese stuff, we were greeted with hordes of Indians and Indian shops. We were rather nonplussed and I was venturing that .. ZOMG the Indians have taken over Chinatown! :|
Thankfully that was not so though =p and we managed to find Chinatown. It's nicely decorated by a big gate thingie that tells you you're zomg entering Chinatown (which actually is just a cross junction but ..). We were looking at the gate and at the throngs of ppl ... The blazing sun beat down on our backs ..
We took refuge in a nearby shopping centre.
Twas a fantastic shopping centre! So many things! So many .. er .. cheap dvds and vcds! And games too! We spent like 2 hours in it looking (well waiting) at .. er . .stuff! before deciding to head out to Chinatown first (to see if there's er .. cheaper stuff before deciding to buy er .. stuff! in the mall)
Thankfully the sun wasn't as blazing as it was earlier and the throngs of people had thinned somewhat. We stepped into Chinatown (actually just 1 street) and looked around.
Actually .. there's not really many things to buy in Chinatown .. most of the shops are selling pretty much the same thing. It's like an uncreative Simcity mayor just zoning everything as commercial (thankfully the sims are more creative and set up different shops! .. Kinda).
The stuff that Chinatown sells can be pretty much summed up as .. Bags.. clothes .. glasses.. watches.. vcds.. Bags.. glasses.. clothes.. watches.. glasses.. Oh yeah and the very occasional food ..
There's some hotels stuffed in the middle of the
H bought a couple of bags there (must remember to bargain! Quote <50%> there! But yet .. A&W is like some kind of endangered species. Haiz the power of marketing?
We were going to have our proper dinner at KFC to eat the yummy looking Zinger Maxx, but we got sidetracked by some Mexican restaurant called Nanda (or something or other) which H said was absolutely fantastic. It's somewhat like Kenny Rogers, as in you have 1/4 or 1/2 chicken and 2 sides. It was not too bad! But I think I don't really fancy Mexican chilli. It's okay but .. mmm not as yummy as Chinese chilli ^^
After the foodo we decided to head back to the
Day 3
Didn't do much, we got up early and checked out of the
The ride up to Genting was fun man, it reminded me so much of NFS, was thinking of driving my car up and taking all those turns at high speeds. Hehe. Air was fantastic too! And the fog! So fun! (and dangerous!) As we headed up, visibility dropped to like 10ish metres. o.o Still we managed to get there in 1 piece and scampered into the hotel (it was cold! .. and wet!)
Sadly we couldn't ninja a ride with H's parents, so we had to book our own bus back. To while the time, we went around the hotels/theme parks. Not too bad lah .. but damn boring. The pool table totally sucked. The cues were making such .. odd sounds when they hit the balls, and the balls were making odd sounds when they hit each other. Table was old and our balls kept getting stuck -_-. The chalk was chained to the table and was all worn out too. Gah the power of non competition.
Finally the time came and we boarded the bus to head back to SG. Takes soo long to get from Genting - SG. zzzz
Anyways in conclusion (yeah I'm getting sleepy and tired!) it was pretty fun! KL is pretty meh, but it has yummy food (and long island tea!) and Genting is a zzzz land. But would be nice to go again!.. Hopefully live in a better
Partial photos are up at the photo link on the left! Too lazy to insert pics into the post .. hehe .. we'll see!

Gah!
stupid java client) when snooks suddenly blanked out on me. His screen
was just flashing on and off. Then when he finally decided to start,
he kept saying sim not found! Gah. Hopefully don need to see doctor.
Need to update firmware when i get back too. Haiz.
For any of those eagerly waiting on Day 2, sorry ah have to wait
longer. Don have it in me to type it yet again for the 3rd time.
Day 1 in KL
Bus from singapore to kl was damn long. About 6+ hours from sitting in
the bus till reach kl.
Once we reached though, we went around looking for a place to stay.
Surprisingly all the backpacker's lodges were full! eek! even the
hotels were full! Damn filthy ang mohs! finally found a place, thank
goodness. It's spartan but not too bad ... so far.
Had a good jap dinner just now. Delicious man. So so yummy. Ordered a
few drinks after that too. wow great man. Singapore drinks are nothing
compared to this. price slightly cheaper too! Nice man.
Laying in bed now trying to sleep. don't feel like sleeping though...
full! but tired! heh.

Pragmatism vs Idealism
Hmm
Well more for bfs.
Then for bfs, must be well educated, be able to make money, and best if parents can support themselves. He must also not have messy family relations. Well .. not must, but preferably. Etc etc.
Nino from Amelie will probably fail all the QCs. Haha.
R observed that I have already taken an idealistic plunge already. Pfft. I deny that! It's not true! Doh!
Anyways, in other news.. I've been observing a disturbing .. trend.
For years my beautiful dark angel has been around me, keeping me company, folding his wings about me, being with me during bad times (and good times!). However, recently it seems that I've been .. disconnected with him. Egads! He's been with me for nearly 10 years! Maybe more! Why is he becoming further and further? T_T I can't relate to him as well as I did last time. Can it be? I've muved on? No~~~~ ! He is a constant in my life, a steadfast companion .. I don't want to muve on! T_T
Now come back here, you! Listen to me for once! pfft

OSX Inc?
Of course you can find the official one @ MS, but seriously ... all that hassle?
On the mac there's no activation, no bugging, I can change a harddisk and it won't say zomg new computer! ..
Of course on the downside it's more difficult to spec a Mac, although maybe I could try to find a hacked way to install it on a PC, then that point will be moot.
Only thing I'm worried about is the GAMES! Zomg ....
Do I HAVE to get Vista to play DirextX 10 games?
pffft.
But .. am seriously considering going mac.. Hell I use one at work .. it's fine! ..
Too disturbing

......
What about just thinking of changing the fucking lock so it locks when the door closes?
But noooo.. You'll have to change the door too!
And noooo .. We ALL know that HDB doors are THE BEST!
And noooo ... There's no other door which can be better than it! (apparently)
And Well! If we change a door, do you know any contractors? They'll sure overcharge you one and give you bad doors..
Catch 22?
Best yet, in the past when we locked it .. it's WTH! Why did you lock it?!? Don't test the lock! Later spoil need to change again.
Just change the fucking door if it causes so much trouble. It's probably one of the first things most ppl change when they get their flats.

Fear the plastic muffin!
Gah! SG is too small!
"Zomg," says I, "how the hell am I going to meet GPB if it's raining? I mean .. I DO have a brolly, but it's for erm ... it's just in my drawer for erm ...... well it's just there for er .. ah . lunch purposes!"
So well, in the end, went down to level 3 with R to see an epic battle of pool. The battle pitting Chinese against Indian, the battle waging between IT and Developers. We headed in and sat on the theatre seats (bought too many so they were scattered around) and watched. IT won the first round but sadly they lost the next round. By that time er .. GPB had already landed @ SLS (zomg late!) so I hastily left with R.
Good thing the rain had stopped by that time so I managed to land @ SLS bone dry. Well kinda. Peered at some games @ Tecdrome, was mildly disconcerted that I can't (again!) find my Call of Cthulhu. It took like forever to get out .. and it's .. gone? ... Need to find some time to visit a friendly shop to acquire a copy. Would love to get the slightly less friendly ones .. but I can't really play these FPS games without getting a bad headache. .. The only FPS I can handle is AvP, but it's sad cos I'm the most directionless Alien ever, the most timid Predator and the crappiest Marine. (psst God mode is uber).
Anyway, GPB and I left SLS and headed to LJS to meet YL but it was .. *gasp* full! But we managed to get a table after GPB farted. Ordered combo 3 (was feeling hungry!) but the manager was stoned or something I think...
GPB: Combo 2 and 3 pls.
Stoned Manager: *keys in* *goes to the kitchen hole thingie and yells combo 1 and 2*
Me: er ......
SM: *brings over a combo 2* Your combo 1 will be ready soon.
....
Service sucks (well don't we all know that?). After we dined, signed and left, we all went our separate ways. Normally would take the train with GPB, but R smsed me and asked if I want to go back. I went to Bugs Junc, then espied R .. shopping in Domanchi. zzzz. The shops were all at half mast so I couldn't go in, so had to HANG AROUND OUTSIDE AND WAIT FOR HIM. -_-
Mysteriously enuff, YL appeared again, searching for a toilet. He returned after settling his business though, and we stood around talking. R FINALLY appeared with big bags of stuff and YL and R suddenly had The Look(tm).
<_<
Apparently they met in NS (NPC) together. Both R and YL are flutists (well YL's CO, R was CO .. well I'm CO too! .. well .. was) .. and they exchanged numbers and blah and saying zomg! So long no see! blah blah. I was slapping my head. Gah! I don't need my friend/agent to know my colleague! <_< .. granted he's a NICE colleague but! pfft! All my secrets! gah!
But of course it's a double edged sword too, I can get YL to tell me all the naughty things R did in NS too.
But seriously, SG is damn small man. I bet I probably know most ppl around my age in some way or other..

I'm starting to like these drinking sessions. We spent the entire evening talking about work. (errr) Bouncing ideas, having creative streaks ... I see how youtube was created! Lolololz. Last night was the longest session so far, we talked till 11ish pm. So many things to talk about The Product. .. Didn't talk about my favourite subject yesterday though .. hehe. But the ideas that went around are pretty good =p .. I r so uber! /flex!

Living
I suppose it's debatable. Wonder how did the West develop like that .. and how did the East develop like that too. Hmm.
Still. Sigh. SG cannot make it lah, too small.. feel pretty stifled. Miss those days in UK, just buy a train ticket and show up in Paris, and if you were part of the EU thingy, you can travel around the regions so easily ... It was so fun. 1 long weekend can just buy a train ticket + book a hotel and go up. Of course you can say SG - M'sia also can.. But .. duh? M'sia? .. hmm Paris, M'sia is not .. heh. Taking a train up? hmmmm ... Travelling around M'sia? Not as easy as moving around the European countries ...

You are The Moon
Hope, expectation, Bright promises.
The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.
The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.
What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

LFG Battle of Wits!
Poem 3
as I walk these streets, cold, dark,
and you appear, my double, my heart,
laughing and holding my numb fingers.
Did you know you were there, my dear?
Threading softly through morning light,
Bumping against me; purpose or accident?
You giggle and look away--red-stained lips.
I lay in silence, blanketed by inky night,
Do you want to see me? The words devour.
I grip the sheets, eyes clenched--free me.
Your soft touch, lightning across my skin.
Did you know you were there, my dear?
The heat of flesh, blood, and breath,
slipping around me, through me--save me.
You tremble and surrender--dark eyes flash.
I think of you, an enigmatic smile,
woven in skeins of memory and dream,
dancing, coy, beyond my short reach,
as you map a geography of my mind,
Did you know you were there, my dear?
Sweet mouth pursed, dark hair falling,
Consuming my dreams, claiming my mind,
As I whisper words, ragged, into your ear.
Drinks!
Then walked all the way to Fullerton, nice night. Not as windy as I'd have liked it though.
Had 2 drinks there, a dry martini and Beach.
The dry martini's too .. sharp for my liking. It's not something I'll be able to chug down without thought. Maybe with practise ... but hmm. Beach was .. sadly very disappointing. Hardly could taste any alcoholic content. Was thinking of what GPB said about "Sex on the Beach" .. maybe should have tested that instead. It sounds very crude though =p Blue Lagoon, is much more .. subtle .. hehe
Didn't get drunk nor high though, but it was fun. Just kinda loosened up and talked more stuff. Pretty fun =p Music was as usual too loud.
Talked alot about him .. favourite conversation topic hehe.
Should go for drinks again soon ... Seeking that elusive high and drunk state =p
Monday, November 27, 2006
More Drinks!
Went with hogy on fri to Hotel Intercontinental's lounge to have a drink. The long island tea was nice but.. not strong enough!
.. So the search for a nice drink that will get me er high continues!
... Had nice penyet (again!) So yummy! Urgh! just by thinking about it .. feel like going to eat it again T_T .. so .. so .. yummy!! <_< Hogy was high though, hahaha was pretty funny when I met him at NLB and he was standing so straight and talking loudly in Japanese .. -_-;
.. mmm .. penyet ..

Drinking
So far haven't hit the WOOT plant feeling nor drunk feeling =(
Monday R says will go drinking .. we shall see.. Or maybe this coming Friday! I'm going to get something stronger.. no more cocktails or mocktails. Drink something strong stiff and hard .......... yum.
Tuesday, November 21, 2006

New Jeans!
Afterwards did some shopping at Bugs Junc .. Getting bored of my clothes leh (ze shock!), was looking for more stuff and different styles, but couldn't find anything. Went over to Levi's and got myself my first Levi's jeans though o.o It's not too bad, wearing it now .. Need to get another pair though .. or maybe a few more .. hehe
We're going to do our hair next week .. going to ninja out of work early to do .. hehehe (la la la =p)
Bvo remember the spa thing!!1 >:E!!
As usual I thought of tonnes of things to say but in the end when I'm blogging, nothing comes to mind .. if only I could create documents in snooks and copy it over to my comp. Bah.
Anyhow, when we were shopping on wed, I showed G a book Bvo and I saw the other day at Kino.. Super hot sex. Both of us stood outside for a while peering at it before wandering about the bookshop. hehe We were daring each other to go up to the staff and saying "Hey, can I have super hot sex?" (Cos you know such books are generally .. restricted, that is it's not freely browsable) Sadly G didn't dare to do it .. hehe would have been interesting.
Bought this last week. It's pretty good .. nice smelling too.. Better than my cream de corps or whatever it is .. not that heavy .. It's nice! Should have bought a bigger bottle hehe
Wednesday, November 15, 2006
It happens all the time! I think of what I want to blog .. but once I reach a computer all thoughts fade from me. Gah! pfft
Lemme pause and attempt to recollect them.
Lets see. HK. Strangely I was thinking of it this morning. It's one of the few places that I'd want to live in for an extended period of time .. say 2-4 years. Why? Hmmm many reasons.
1: Food. zomg .. Black sesame dessert ... zomg .. yum
2: Somehow like the life there, it seems interesting.
3: Shops close late!
4: Cantonese!
3 and 4 are pretty iffy points, as those in the know know that I hate shopping *cough* The only shopping I do is directed hunting. Hmm I need xyz. These shops have xyz. Organise hunting mission to those shops. Target discovered and acquired.
4 is like .. hmm I hardly know cantonese .. level very low. But I kinda like it ... would be good to go there and learn =p
Hmm what else did I think about? Hmmm can't remember oO. Maybe I should try out that mobile blogging thing and furiously type into Snooks. Hmmm Starting to seem more and more appealing, heh.
Gah oh well .. guess more later when/if I remember. duh!

The State of Things
I recently sent out a mail about another survey, but this time it's interviewish and has $.. immediately got so many responses. -_-; I left out the contact email by accident so people were emailing me back to find out more info. I was like getting responses in like 2-3 hours since sending out the mail. Gee.

Expectations
Guess it's my fault, same as what happened with retri in previously. Too much expectation. Things generally get better without that, although emotional attachment will definitely decrease. It's somewhat like what's going to happen with D I suppose, that is, IF I ever see her again. Don't really have any expectations of her, but if ever she needs help I'll help based on our history together, but just without any emotions.
Still, time to school the feelings and re-evaluate situations, re-establish new benchmarks, write up new protocols. Should endeavour not to let it happen again.

Look at the freaking haze! ZOMG.
pfft
Well we finally reached the Courts and, 5$ lighter (for me), we all went in. The first exhibit we went to was inside this big, nice darkened hall. Nice cold aircon .... The moment we stepped in, we were assailed with the sound of a plane engine. On both sides of the room were huge screens .. each showing an aircraft's wing (like when you take a flight and look out of your window). Clouds float serenely by .. all nicely computer generated.
It's a little dark .. you know, the darkened room bit.
It's all nice and impressive (the sound and especially the nice aircon) .. Only problem is ....... What's the point? It's called "Departure" .. well .. I see a plane wing .... I see 2 plane wings ..... .. mm .erm .......and..?
You're telling me someone is paying $XX / hour, powering the aircon, the sound, the projectors ... for this.
So anyways we muve around the place, looking at .. things .. Some of the pieces are really creepy. Here's one which was abit doh! When we first saw it.
That's ... art? mmm well .. *cough cough* Belljars with Chucky? mmmm I guess the wood panelling looks kind of nice.
We came across another piece of
Yet another creepy one .. we enter a room .. it's all empty, save for a table with flags in front (like those UN meetings), and there was this sound of laughter .... loud uproarish laughter ........... Frankly, if I were to enter an empty room and hear loud laughter like that ... I'm going to label it as creepy. We did have some fun there though, sitting on the chairs pretending to be the delegates.
Some pieces of art made some sense though .. there was this series of pictures with this dude holding the bible .. And one of them showed him with a Jesus puppet. I (not me!) was a little putoff by it .. although I think it's pretty true .. people are using Jesus as a means to get what they want. Jesus said "xyz!!!" Thou shalt all listen to me!!!
There were some interesting exhibits though .. there was one with a big projection of a US bill (100$ and 20$) and they had a litle figure muving around. Like for the 20$ one they had a dude muving around with a ladder wiping off the windows, and they integrated it in with the dollar bill.. so that it looks like it belongs there.
Sadly we didn't have enough time to finish looking at everything closely .. you know . time is of the essence .. and wandered back to the office by taxi around 4 =(
.. Still. ART IS CREEPY!!! zomg.

Had dinner with H on tues. Decided to go Crystal Jade (拉面 edition) .. well actually it was H .. I was trying to gently poke for the 澳门 edition but ... Admittedly I didn't poke too strongly cos I had lunch there the other day liao =p
So anyway, I leave the office, turn AutoPilot(tm) on and engage Cruise Mode. I'm a little late because I was waiting for this chick to finish using the toilet (we only have 1 toilet for everyone in this neck of the woods). Finally gave up waiting cos she took too long .. So I hurry down to Suntec, still on AP(tm). AP(tm) notices a Crystal Jade place, espies chairs outside (those you sit while waiting) and pull into the restaurant before I can do anything.
Me: 我在找人 *looking around*
Waitress: makes "是不是那位" sounds and gestures
Me: .. *senses something is wrong* *looks around ... Sensors detecting a disturbing lack in H's presence* Erm .... *and realises that the place is too posh looking from what I remember of the 拉面 edition*
Waitress2: *starting to approach*
Me: *time to start beating hasty retreat* 没关系,I'll call him *exeunt Restaurant* *hides in a corner and furiously calls H*
H: Yar?
Me: Where the hell are you!? (It's a pointless question actually cos I know where he's supposed to be .. the only problem is I temporarily forgot where I'm supposed to be)
H: I'm inside liao lah!
Me: Where's there!?! (Another silly question cos Suntec's foody place IS a blardy circle, but I needed to er .. .you know .. oh look! Pink poodle!)
H: Just follow the circle lah! .. Near that Aunt Annie's thing
Me: <_<>_> *goes the LONG way around and finds the 拉面 edition*
Me: 我在找人 *not really looking around anymore*
Waitress: 是个男生?
Me: Yeah
Waitress: *leads me around and I espy H*
Me: *shakes off the waitress and hurriest up to H*
H: So there you are, darling (well I can't remember what he said, just the word darling .. *koff*)
Me: ..
etc etc .. I can't remember everything now can I? =p
Anyways people who er .. know me know that I'm not a big fan of noodles .. I mean .. I eat noodles .. but .... mmm.....
Function jump: Buying noodles for parents
Me: So what you want?
P: Hei mee lah
Me: Ok. *hangs up and goes to stall*
Me: Hei mee 打包
Stallowner: You want Noodle A or Noodle B
Me: nani?! What noodle A noodle B?! *looks at mysterious flat noodle things and mysterious yellow noodle things * erm ........ erm .............. Wait huh
Me: *backs a hasty retreat to ring up HQ for clarification*
End Function
So anyways, at the 拉面 edition, I always skip past the 拉面 section in the menu (lolz wtb irony?) and look at the .. er . rice. Normally I tend to order this prawn fried rice thing .. (Cos it's nice .. .. totally ignore the fact that it's the only explicit rice thing that they have here). So I was thinking .. mm maybe try something new today. *looks around menu* .. mm Hey there's this dish called "Egg white with fish meat and scallops and rice"
When we placed our orders, I noticed the chinese text for the dish .. something about crabs no mention of fish .. But I thought .. well abit of crab nvm lah .. should still can eat
In the end .. when it came .. It was a plate of egg white, strings of crab meat, 4 broccolis and 1 egg yolk.
Where's the rice!? Gah! .. In the end had to ninja some of H's noodles to eat .. no way can eat 1 plate of egg yolk .. *koff koff*
Pfft. Note to self: In chinese restaurants, read the chinese instead of the english ..........
Yeah yeah I should have known that . but .. well .. meh!

....
Had a .. erm .. rather long lunch just now. Went to this Jap rest @ Bugs Junction for lunch with R and I. (Just got back actually hehe)
Anyways .. did something .. extremely .. extremely .. embarrassing <_<.. I ordered teppan chicken, R ordered noodles + sushi, I ordered some bentoish sashimi + rice + unagi. And .. when the waitress served R with a box of his noodles and liao, I thought the liao box was the sushi tray we ordered (that we'd all share). I was thinking, hey! Why got tempura? Then er.. without thinking .. reached out and er grabbed a tempura ... Halfway through eating the tempura .. the waitress came and served the sushi tray that we'd be sharing ..
I was going .. zomg. .. er... *look at tempura*.. erm ....*koff koff* errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
*koff* ........... ...
Well .. he er .. did ninja some of my teppan chicken .. <_<;;;; ..
You know .. this is just like that classic story, about this dude (ie me) buying a bag of cookies at the airport and this guy comes over and starts eating your and you go. Gah! Why is this dude eating my cookies? Then afterwards you realise you're actually eating his cookies .............=X
Poem 2
I stand on the far shore, tears in my eyes,
would that distant bird, soaring, but be me,
beating slow wings, wind masking my cries.
The moon is your lover, in his arms you rest,
he cradles you gently, I spite him his chance,
soft light caresses you, worships your breast,
shimmers your hair, around your neck does dance.
In silence I fly thru these dim shores of night,
thoughts of you piercing the thin veil of sleep,
I search for a map, some magisterial height,
from which to spot your glimmer, lighting the deep.
Alone, I circle, feathers chilled by dim dreams,
until your warmth pulls me near, a thin light,
dispelling the darkness, silencing the screams,
causing nightmare to retreat from the sight.
Delicately you sleep, soft breath stirring your hair,
Nightdress tenderly cupping your flesh so sweet,
I catch your scent, mysterious, in the still night air,
memories of love, laughter, and summertime heat.
To you flowers I'd offer, colorful, and fair,
Roses to match your lips, peach blossoms your skin,
Your moth wing eyebrows, spun silk your hair,
For though tired are my wings, so sweet is your grin.
I gaze upon you fearfully, lest swiftly you fade,
my fire, my light, my lantern from the shore,
like a solitary match against the dark parade,
I hold it tight, though it burns my fingers sore.
And now, soft dawn upon this scene does shine,
I lament bittery, wishing this once not to fly,
she stirs gently, so softly, this sweet girl of mine,
longing in my heart, I spread my wings and cry.
But I know she'll soon wake, leaving dreams to the night,
her eyes will widen, and her thoughts will then freeze,
for what is resting gently, so gently on her soft thigh,
but a warm little feather, caught in the morning breeze.
Poem 1
cold wind gathers, slicing through bone,
as if shadow flitting, some unholy dream,
from o'er pale distance, comes riding alone.
Whole dread made life, atop a steed of fire,
gaunt hands clutching reins, brittle'd by time,
Behold a head horned, framing eyes most dire,
A miasma of death follows, reeking of lime.
Woe to those unlucky, those unfortunate few,
travellers, merchants, and the victims of fate,
sundry all who cross paths, the many you slew,
forms shrunken and shrivelled, their souls you ate.
Now from out the forest, defiant cries can be heard,
they have gathered together, courage sorely met,
"Slay the beast!" o'er town to hamlet came the word,
And gather they have, on their numbers they bet.
Yet the figure reacts not, a chill blot on the land,
shadows gather and swirl about, a murder of crows,
the attackers pause, weapons slide from slacken'd hand,
while laughter, dark and empty, on a foetid wind blows.
At once the many seem few, while legion the one,
cries and pleading erupt, darkness ripples and shrieks,
bolts of night pierce chest, as one they turn to run,
yet shadow is merciless, for living warmth it seeks.
Now the fields are silent, still is the cold earth,
the graves are all empty, for of bodies there are none,
simply shrunken dark forms, like men as still birth,
of the figure there is no sign, his work swiftly done.
So heed these words dear traveller, whyever you roam,
for darkness is coming, treasure each and every breath,
Carry you your love swiftly, and make fast your home,
For 'neath pale moon's light steps an Angel of Death.
.....
silly thing =)

Saw an ang moh at one of the tables when I was bringing the food to the munchie place. Was wont for me these few days, I kinda looked (*ahem*) a few times at him. These few days have been giving ang mohs more than 1 look .. I wonder why <_<;
Anyways, looking at the ang moh reminded me of something that happened yesterday. Yesterday went out with R for lunch @ Bugs' Crystal Jade (Macau Edition). We had 2 baskets of har kao, 1 plate of carrot cake, 3 custard buns (well it's 1 basket!), fried beancurd with prawns in it, 三杯鸡 and rice. Pretty yummy, then this ang moh couple came and sat beside us. The female edition of thee ang moh couple kept looking over. And they were eating .. lolz, a chocolate roll (dude) and some pastry thing (dudette). And she kept looking over at me and R demolishing the foodo hehe ^^
They finished it off with some cappochino (gah I don't drink it! Don't ask me to spell it) and some plain water while R and I had nice (well cheap) chinese tea.
Nice lunch .. though it cost me 20$ ;_;
There's like super ancient things in my drawers
1st drawer:
Mmmm F117 Nighthawk manual ... .. F15 Strike Eagle manual ..
LucasArts Archives .... Bunch of old receipts from like 10000 years ago.
2nd drawer:
MORE receipts <_< *throw* old manuals of hardware which already do not exist in Resurrection (nor in Independence). Old IDE cables .. cd rom cables .. *throw*
3rd drawer:
MORE receipts .. *throw* ..... old manuals .. *throw* old articles .. *throw* .
... windows 98 original manual? lolz?
No freespace <_<
.. Ah! Freespace manual! .. mm where's the .er CDs..
4th drawer:
.. zomg lolz? autocad 3.0? IE 5.0? .. Air Power? hahaha Jurassic Park Chaos Island? mffffft
Sidenote: I still remember where I bought Air Power from ... bargain bin @ Challenger @ Funan .. that was during the 'happy' times .. when Challenger was doing well and did not smell of death and decay. It wasn't well reviewed (well I knew it after I bought it) But it was kinda interesting.
It is year xyz, instead of the Hindenberg (spelling?) incident, airships blimpy things rule the skies .. The King has just matied and the crown stands empty. You, and some other pretenders .. er I mean contenders to the throne (Definitely you're the Clear Choice) each want the throne (Naturally it should be you).
So you fly around with your fleet to garner support.
To be crowned King (Which is definitely You, no other choice), you must do either
a: Kill everyone
b: Charge to the capital city and kill all the guards
c: Fly around the lands and garner support from fickle minded towns.
Naturally c will be what you're doing most of the time. So you'll be flying to towns, asking for their support ... and if they don't agree .. *ahem* zomg siege! Blow up their hangers . their grain fields... mmm Keep bombing them till they fall to their knees and beg for mercy.
Needless to say I never quite finished the game .. It was interesting though. Some of the more frooty games (Another frooty game I had was Fortress . or Air Fortress or w/e .. can't remember the name)
Anyways .. back to clearin .. I mean, looking for Freespace..
A peek in the main drawer.
Zomg. All those photos ... cards ... weird stuff .. a 変態 cd I confiscated from my friend. Never watched it .. should dispose of it one day. Found my 21 celebration pics .. lolz .. JC grad pics .. lolz. MORE receipts .. zzz A funny perlini's necklace thing. Something I wouldn't buy. Looks damn ugly. And FINALLY ZOMG .. FREESPACE! I FOUND IT!!!! .. mm where's Freespace2 ...
..
Decided, well since I'm already digging through stuff, might as well continue.
*looked under the table .. u know that hole where ur legs stick into .. Kept some of my old game boxes there*
Hmm
The Dig .. *throw*
Alien Legacy .. *throw*
Hmmm Navy Strike? ... *throw*
Star Wars sounds .. mmmm *throw*
Hmm NFS: PU? .. Cannot lah . *keep*
XWing Collector's Edition? *keep*
WC: Prophecy? .. mm *keep*
DoW? definitely. .*keep*
gah all that dust <_<;;;
Finished er ..clearing stuff around 2am .... still no Freespace 2 <_<. On hindsight, I THINK I know where it is .............. probably in that cabinet .. will have to peek in when I get back.
Definitely have to clear up more stuff.
This time I left all the correspondences alone .. It's always a little ironic to see cards which say "Best friends forever!" or "Thinking of you always!" .. etc ... Don't even know where those people are now. Which is why I tend to not give out cards like that .. Can't give out something I can't promise =p .. forever is a very long time.
Will have to wait for my 'heartless' moment to rear its head up before I toss them all though. It's a mood thing.

Every morning I walk through this covered walkway thingy (tonnes of them here lolz).. it's apparently caterpillar hatching season .. and for some reason the poor things end up on the pavement .. and .. people tend to not look at where they are stepping on .. so there's *ahem* a significant amount of er caterpillar guts strewn on the floor <_< urek. Practically a minefield to navigate ... >_> But better liao .. last week was worse...
Anyways, finally! The jpeg header parser thingy works! Already wrote my java based bulk tester, and going to write another bash file as my control case to test tomorrow. So far I have 3 things which does what I want to do. 1: My java app, 2: This C app, 3: SIPS (simple .. image... processing .. script (i think hehe)) which is a Mac thingy. Can really see the speed difference man, when I was debugging (and hence parsing the entire file) the java app would run ..zzzz.zzzzz return to console. The c program will practically return immediately .. -_-;;; Loading the awt library for a simple CLI is also slow too heh .. so had to use int[] for return values at the moment too. Maybe can try and optimise the code .. but I think quite okay liao .. mmm... Anyway .. bulk testing tomorrow!
I love bash scripting! (well .. nothing much lah just a simple level 0 type one .. nothing to talk about =p)
Hehe. As a random sidenote, I'm listening to other songs other than The Song.. Of course The Song is still in my List, but it has friends now ... Go Tight~~!
千年の孤独を越えてめぐり逢えた艶やかな眼差しに!

Zomg First?
Wonder how long this will last
