LS: Life sucks.

NEEDS TO LEVEL UP.

Monday, March 19, 2012

Haven't been updating for some time. I've been busy with assignments these last few weeks, so I haven't been writing. If I had the time to be writing an entry, I should be working on my assignment. Fortunately, I was able to complete a working draft of my current write up ahead of time, so I have the time to rant again. Wee.


School has been awesome as usual, though I haven't exactly felt like I've caught up on my studies. Assignments were due, and there was one that I felt was written badly. Tagged along on some mini class cohesion event on Thursday, good thing there was no touch rugby. I still haven't figured out the rules to this day. Nvm.


Went for a Japanese buffet at some place in Novena. Somebody ordered too much food, and so we played some number game from 1 to 99 to decide the fella to eat a sushi. As usual with all luck based games, I lost pretty badly. Oh wells. It was kinda like Russian Roulette, except here you kill yourself slowly by stuffing yourself with pieces of fish and rice.


The sushi was like leftover cold, but at least it wasn't so bad like the last time I went for supper with some friends at a halal hongkong cafe, which so coincidentally happened to have a Botak Jones outlet there. Botak Jones serves American-sized portions, which meant that they were really huge for us Asian. Like you could skip breakfast, lunch, and dinner and ate it but still feel bloated. Friendly advice, never order fish and chips, which was what I did, but my other two friends didn't listen.


Fish and chips is always the largest of all the Western food you can order, and Botak Jone's fish and chips could fight with Fish & co and still win. I had to help eat some of their portion, plus the dim sum we ordered. I will never forget that night. I went home, was unable to sleep despite feeling exhausted. I finally fell asleep in the end, but I woke up with a totally uneasy feeling, kind of like a nightmare. I'm pretty sure there was a nightmare, only that I couldn't remember it, and I was sure that fish and chips were involved somehow. I swore off Western for months after that.


Diablo 3 has been announced at a release date of 15th May. I haven't decided if I'm getting it, primary reason being my computer might not meet the minimum requirements. Sigh. There was a lot of hype on Facebook, and it seems there will be a launch event in Singapore. I think its on an exam date. Definitely not going anyways, but I predict that this event will be very kumdong one. Sure will have someone cry on TV.


There was some special segment about OCD on Saturday 17th March Straits Times. There was a woman living with 21 cats. Wow. Its kinda interesting cause its related to psychology. I haven't read the full section, but what I can remember from it is that somehow, somebody with OCD starts out a compulsion to keep themselves clean. Then when they can no longer afford to do so, either cause of skin irritation or that water bill, they will decide to stop cleaning themselves. After this part it gets kinda vague for me, but they will turn to collecting junk, because according to the article they feel like they need to have everything, and everything is important. Along the way, they will collect cats too, though I'm not sure how do cats come into the picture.


In short, OCD is kind of like those MMORPGS games, except you can collect everything but you don't have enough inventory spaces. Well, the whole point of this and that paragraph is to generate interest and read that special segment, because its a pretty interesting read. And you never know, if your gamer friend who collects every in game item...
