20 June 2007 Gosh... I'm like freaking tired and sleepy right now. But i guess updating the blog first would be a good idea. From the pictures you see above, we went fishing at changi village. It was fun and we caught a few small fishes. Well fishing in changi village is not a good ideal spot cause there's a lot of seaweed. It's very irritating. So fishermens out there, try somewhere else aite. (*Yawning*) Fuhh... Guess thats my call. Well got to go. See ya.

Did You Know?: The Da Vinci Code on page 232: claims: "Nothing in Christianity is original. The pre-Christian god Mithras, called the Son of God and the Light of the World was born on December 25 - died - was buried in a rock tomb - and then resurrected in three days. By the way, December 25 was also the birthday of Osiris, Adonis and Dionysus.

Mine is on 23 Dec... Tsk... 2 Days short of getting the same birthday as the Gods of Egypt.

Last Sunday, my family went out and we bought some expensive stuffs. My sis got her very own laptop, a HP Compaq V3410 which cost around $1899 but got discount to $1799. Good for her. The specs are good but her graphic card sucks. Yup, sucks. It's integrated. And i got myself a Nintendo DS Lite with a free Pokemon Pearl game. I know i'm old but still, Yay! Well, The Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite have sold over 37 million systems as of February, 2007, outselling (at this point) its main rival, the PlayStation Portable by four DS (Lite) to one PSP. Woohoo. Take that! Anyways, DS Lite is the 7th Generation of all nintendo games console.

Yup, Yup. That's all i have to say for the week. Come on, my life isn't fun everyday so bear with it aite. Hmm, guess i'm off to play pokemon n GRANADOS ESPADA! That's a great online game. PotGas Family, Let's conquer Espada ! Well got to go. See ya.

Alrighty then, let's get this started. Had a great chalet on the 9th to 11th april. We had so much fun that we didn't take much pictures. That's how much fun we had. Played Taboo, Boogle and Pictionary. And yeah this game lasted quite a long time. Made a new friend, meet up with old ones, and i'm engrossed with KBS Happy Sunday, Heroine 6. Jeon Hye Bin is HOT!!!

Anyways, I went over to johor bahru three times just to find the location to pay the fine. Yes, three times! Oh come on, state an address on the fine so we can find the place easily! Argh! Even the people there do not know the place. Its like it doesn't exist. Well finally we managed to find the place and paid the fine. Fendy was quite relieved as all his fines are cleared. Hooray...

Well now, school reopened and we're back to our secular life. New teachers new lessons. Ahh... Looks hard to maintain my GPA. And i'm sick. Yes. Very sick. Was absent from school for three days. Sigh. What's with the weather these days. Guess i better eat my medicine now. Well got to go. See ya.

You're in the mood for Comedy movie tonight!

What's Your Movie Mood Tonight?
Brought to you by Tickle

Your giddy mood is setting you up for a Comedy night. You're ready to share some laughs with friends—whether chuckles and chortles or hysterical howling that leaves you lying on the floor. Madcap slapstick or sophisticated spoof, tonight's pick needs to be something that matches your lighthearted attitude. How about hooking up with some friends to see who can recite the most lines from Caddyshack?. Or what about the old standbys like Fletch and Vacation? And please don't forget about Robin Williams. For a more modern take, try Austin Powers or Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Nothing's better for the soul than a belly laugh, so dim the lights and get set for a great evening's entertainment. Well got to go. See ya.

Did You Know?: Adult frogs are carnivorous and will eat just about anything smaller than themselves, including insects, worms and even other frogs. Some frogs are tiny but the largest of them all, the Goliath frog, is the size of a baby deer! There are more to frogs than you imagined.

Hmm... Never seen one before. Maybe they should do a documentary about that frog on Animal Planet.

Did You Know?: So you think downloading music from the Internet is a really cool modern thing? Not so. Music was transmitted down phone lines way back in 1876.

I wonder what type of songs do they listen to.

03 April 2007

Okay, time to update my blog i guess, before some people keep bugging me to. Now, where should i start? Hmm... Oh yeah. Yesterday was quite a horrendous day for me and fendy. Well, the bad kinda happen somewhere in the end but it was still a terrible day. The both of us were planning to go to Johor Bahru to buy some DVDs and Games. Before that i have to extend my passport cause its expired. So we went over to ICA and there was a long queue. Damn! Well, we managed to pull through and i got my extension. Then we asked the counter that was serving me for directions to woodland, cause fendy wanted to sleep throughout the journey. She told us that there is no bus from lavender to woodland and so she adviced us to take the NRT. Yes, NRT. I wonder. What the hell is that?! Oh come on. You're working for the ICA for goodness sake. Use proper pronunciation! MRT!

Well moving on. We eventually reach woodlands at around 4pm and i'm suppose to meet up with my sis at 6pm. Hmm... Tight schedule eh. After going through the custom, we waited for our bus to arrive but where the hell is it?! We waited for at least 20 mins. My butt was numb during that period. So we took another bus and head over to the malaysian custom. Everything went smoothly thereafter. After getting our usual stuff, we found out that we were really out of cash. We bought so much stuff, well fendy bought the most, that we have enough for just a burger and a packet of milo. Good enough i suppose. Before heading back to singapore, we decided to take a few puffs. And that's when our day totally went down the hill.

Well you see, after finishing our ciggarette, we kind of "littered" the floor and was caught by the malaysian custom officer. ARRGHH !!! What luck! We got fined RM250. How much is that in SGD? You do the calculations. When the guy was fining us, fendy work his magic and finally got us to pay RM50. Nice! Basically we have to pay the fine within one month. Fuhh... I don't mind it cause its my first time. But for our dear Mr Effendy, its he's third time. Ooooh. That's gotta hurt. 2 times in singapore. First time in malaysia. Next stop, Thailand. Hehehe... Let's get fine around the world. Must be fun. Anyways, yesterday was a day we hope to forget about. This sucks. Well got to go. See ya.

Did You Know?: Leonardo da Vinci could write with one hand and draw with the other simultaneously.

Well, i can scratch my butt with one hand and dig my nose with the other simultaneously. Take that da Vinci!

Ah... Finally something good to look at. Well if u notice (if u don't there's something wrong with you), i've change my blogskin. This is all thanks to missingcreations for the nice design. And i definately need to thank fendy on this one cause he waste his precious time for helping me to choose and help out with the template. Why precious time? Well, we stay up all morning and its around 2-4 plus in the morning! How crazy is that? Hey, i'm just a beginner. Bare with me.

Anyways while doing my blogskin, fendy shared with me his own creative wallpaper design which is being done through adobe photoshop. It was actually nice but kinda look like Hari Raya Celebration thingy. Well, he's just a beginner. I'm sure he will do it much better in the future.

Well, he also told me of a great website which hosts many cool wallpapers. DeviantArt.com. Go there people. You'll be amaze. Right, i'll just show you guys some examples from In Vector. Get inspired. Let your creative mind go wild. Keep the feeling flowing.

Kinda cool huh? Wish i could be like them. Maybe one day? Hope so. Well got to go. See ya.

Did You Know?: King Henry I, who ruled England in the 12th century, standardised the yard as the distance from the thumb of his outstretched arm to his nose.

Next wednesday, 11 am, in school, be on time ! Sigh. My holiday's are burning right in front of my eyes but its for the best. Well got to go. See ya.
