Gaming Day!

Yay! Finally!!! I woke up at 11.30 AM today. Watched some TV then started playing! Went to play Pandora Tomorrow. At first it hanged cos i was cheating then after I changed the settings back to normal, everything else did so too :D But I still cant belive that my video card (ATI Radeon 9200) is SOOO bad that I have to play PT on 640x480 settings... Of course I changed it to 1024x780 at the expense of some lag but I was using night vision goggles most of the time so there wasnt much of a difference. Then I went to play Condition Zero online...The first time since I bought it in April (or was it may?) Not much of a difference actually. It was the same as 1.6 but you could pick up grenades in this one :D And the maps and weapon models just looked different. Oh and the sound too. Overall, it was THE SAME!!! Played that the whole afternoon. And now (its @ nite now), im talking to roderic. Hes being an ass (as usual) spamming and talking crap. A'well, gnite... Im gonna watch The Simple Life in like 15 minutes.

Canon, Aquathlon and Freddie

My! What a day it has been!  Today's aquathlon sure sucked... Even though I just had to swim 2 laps (100 m), I felt completely drained and dizzy after that. I couldn't even get out of the pool to tap my partner. I mean, we didnt even ge to warm up...Minimal strecthing exercises were done and I didn't really have a good breakfast... And I hate swimming in the morning. Im at lot more off form when I swim in the morning... Sheeesh...

That was in the morning... In the afternoon, Canon came over to sign the contract... We got to demonstrate the products and explain all the details (to whoever was listening). Lol, all the teachers were impressed with the direct photo printing (fake or not?) and they were going ga-ga over it! Lol, talk about low tech. It went really well over all (for a change). As usual, Mr Ng n the VP of Canon made their speeches but I bet they were really pissed when the stupid mike started screwing up. Every few minutes or so, the mike would like cut off part of their sentences and it caused quite a stir among the audience. It was really fun showing off the products and I guess the center of attraction had to be the direct photo printers. Heh, then came the 'refreshments'. Why I put the quotation marks? Well, it was more of a buffet than refreshments. And all those greedy pigs (from techno of course) were stuffing their faces like no tomorrow! And the tea and coffee (which tasted really bad)...Man, you should've seen them... They were guzzling like camels... You know what I mean by 'kiausism'... After everything was wrapped up, I went to check out the UYOs and their NDP rehearsals... They had to stand to attention for like 2-3 hrs or so? That must've really sucked. And I was like observing them, enjoying coffee and tea. Lol, they must've been really jealous. John Chao was also criticising the UYOs, talking about how disgraced he was as an EX-NPCC officer, saying that he was ashamed and yada yada yada. Like WHAT-EV-ERRR... Who carez!!!

Its been like 2 or 3 weeks and freddie (the nightmare, for some taf club membes) isnt back. Haha, I bet roderic would like die of a heart attack upon seeing Freddie. Well, the rumours are that 1) He went to beat up some guy and got sacked and 2) The pay was too low and he wouldnt return until the sch paid him more. Both could be very likely 'coz Freddie really had an attitude problem and had a sadistic/moronic/dumb sense of humour. The sch is also kinda poor (thats what they claim) asking us for $$$. The sch must've been too poor to pay poor freddie. Well, as long as he isnt making a comeback, Roderic's (and many others) longevity would be preserved.

So much homework!!!

Damn! Stupid teachers are giving us more and more homework. Today, our lit teacher (FCS) told us we had a project on animal farm. We have to create a board game about it. Its a group project work (as usual) and guess how many members we had? Not 4 but twice that. Yep, 8!!! The maximum she allowed was 6 but we managed to bargain with her and ended up with 8 people. So now, our game board size is doubled (it was originally the size of a desk). Lotsa work to be done yo...

Man, tomorrow will be one eventful day... I have to go for the aquathlon and right after that, the Canon signing ceremony... Stupid taf club teacher made us compete in the non-competitive event. 1 person has to run 1 round barker rd n 1 person has 2 swim. Of course, I am the one who will be swimming. Tomorrow, Im also in charge of the canon digicam booth together with some frenz... I'll have to be familiar with the Canon Powershot A8O (the one which im gonna buy) and the pictbridge direct printer Canon CP-220... Bah! At least Im not doing ushering (omg, sooo booorrrring)... Ooooh, gonna have a sleepless nite 2nite... So nervous...

Oh and I didnt broke or fracture my finger after all... Just a stupid sprain...But it did hurt like sh*t... It doesnt hurt so much now :D

Broken Ring Finger!

OoooooWwW!!! My ring finger (thats the one beside ur pinky) hurts... :( Was playing basketball today n dis as$ -0!3 went to whack the ball out of my hand and at the same time injure my ring finger!!! So now I cant really bend it all the way or else it will hurt like sh*t and it also looks a bit out of shape... But wth, at least it was my left hand n not my right. Amazingly, I can still type normally! As usual, there's LOADsa homework... Sigh, life is sooo FOS

Oh and I cant wait!!! Canon coming this friday! Tomorrow, we're having the rehearsal and all that stuff.

2 more days to the aquathlon. I hope my injured finger can somehow get me out of it (really hard 2 swim wif a broken finger cos it will keep hitting the water, not very gd at all)

ooopS

Ooops, made a mistake... I learnt today that the price list was screwed up with LOADSA discrepancies. It said IXUS I was going at 650 when on their website quoted 550. They're just gonna sell us the products at a special rate depending on the demand of it. But I doubt it would be much. Everything is still unclear. Looks like I haf 2 wait till this friday for the dust to settle. Haiz...

Canon is so FOS

In case u dunno wad FOS is, it means Full of Shit. Canon n my CCA r signing a deal. They train us and we help em sell their products (u dun haf 2 noe much abt dis part). So naturally, there should be some discount for us special members rite.And I thought like we're gonna get 10% or 20% discount but NOOO... They dun even give us discounts! But guess wad, since I dun haf a digicam, my mum wanted 2 get one. so we settled on this particular digicam which says its going for 649 bucks (no prizes for guessing wad it is) on the BUHLARDEE website. They're selling it for 649 outside and it even says so on the BUHLARDEE website but on the price list of the products they're selling us, it frickin says 646 and quotes the original price as 699. It even dare quotes the profit we're making!!! They're selling it for 649 OUTSIDE, WITH FREE GIFTS WORTH 300!!! Which would u choose, 646 WITHOUT free gifts (from my CCA) or 649 WITH free gifts... Dont ya think canon is FOS... Any1 hu did their research wud noe dat the canon powershot a80 is 649 bucks outside... sheeesh, buncha dumb asses

New blog!

Its been a LOOOOOONG time since I updated this (lol, as if anyway wud read this). After all the confusion and chaos, the dust has finally settled and this is what it is now... I noe, not very much but at least i managed to sit down and actually learn n find out how 2 do dis sh*t...I've been surfing around, typing around, crapping around and I FINALLY managed to generate this pathetic and horribly plain n boring blog...WTH man...But anyway, im gonna add more stuff (u can bet on it) starting wif the LINKS toolbar. Im gonna link up all my favourite sites and my other friends blogs... most likely gonna change the background too but I kind like black...
