that's the problem with photos. yes, you go somewhere nice, snap snap snap without thinking, end up with thousand over photos, and you come back and realise you got the settings wrong, which is why you get to have so many photos, but the quality sux. ironic isn't it?

and the trouble with not going to school, and being over the age of 16, and the fact that you were the one snapping photos means you get the whole lot of trouble of arranging it in the album. and not just that, you have to make a scrapbook. something that involves more than just the pictures you took, but paper souvenirs you collect along the way. if you don't know what i mean, think along what you get on stands outside the train stations, and the irritating pieces of white paper you get after you pay for your cute little key chain...

and here i am, staring at the photos with a burning desire to throw them in the oven. and i just realised how many receipts i have, but i don't see a freaking thing from japan around my house. probably most of them are in my stomach. shrugs.

frankly, i told myself, when i was browsing through the darn photos, that i really need to do something, two things rather... one is to tidy up my hair, a big mistake of 'concave' cut thanks to listening to my mother, lesson learnt. never to listen to your mother after you graduate from age 18. and the next thing is, to lose weight. well, not going to tell you what i saw in Japan, so you can just 'assume' that it's those pictures that my dad snapped of me, yes, my dad was also armed with a camera... but somehow, being born lazy has certainly driven all thoughts of beauty and health out of my mind. not that i'm vain, it's just that people have been nagging at me and not to mention what i see on the streets, and the agony i feel whenever i need to go get clothes... gaah...

anyway i'm hating my psp real soon... something about the sequence of things is driving me nuts in light of the fact that some games are 'un-playable'.. despite the modification... don't ask me why, i have a fairly good idea what happen, just that i'm too lazy to do anything about it... don't blame me. it's all the way in Choa Chu Kang...

well, been neglecting this blog for quite some time already, best to get back here to keep track of things, before i really lost it all.

let's start from the beginning. results. quote from Jack Sparrow: 'Not so bad'. although i don't think i did myself justice for history, or better known as UGC 111, World Civilizations. but overall, i think i didn't really disappoint myself. not to get complacent though, the trouble starts on jan 14.

then, well, there's the Japan trip. haha, yes, surprising, and slightly unwilling, i went to Japan, otherwise known as land of the rising sun. getting rather cliche, but nevermind. seriously, i have to say it was a disappointment. because i think i had too much hopes for that. one thing for sure, i went there in hopes of seeing my favourites, but ended up not getting anything at all. and i spent my time searching most of the time, which might explain why i didn't enjoy the trip much. 3 days of searching and looking out for things and all i got was 72 hours of complete wasted time. throw in 48 hours of stoning, that's, 5 days... i must say i confirm what was the conclusion i made ages ago. i'm not good with searching for things, and search engines... which is why i had a tough time getting what i want in life.

mostly, i must say when i stop thinking about what i want during the trip, i enjoyed what i saw. the streets, the different signboards, the bare trees, and the different atmosphere i was in, not to mention the coldness there. well, it's winter, what do i expect? the snow i saw, the snow i threw and the snow i played. the vast scenery i saw, the different landscape and the beautiful sights singapore will never in history and future get to have. like i said to my friends, it's lucky i stayed there for only 3 days with no anime/manga. else, i would have called everyone up and said 'bye guys, you won't see me anymore, i'm not going back to singapore'.

i took a lot of photos, a surprising thing to me and all those who know me. well i'm not in the photos i mean, but i kept snapping photos while on the bus, not all are nice, but at least it gets the feel of where i am. and well, if i count those that i deleted, i'd amount to 1045 pics at the end of the 5 days, but those i kept was 998. plus my dad's side with 289, that's a total of 1387 photos. not so bad.

talk about searching for things, i stayed up all night, or rather 2 nights playing Mystery Case Files Madame Fate. the absolute fantastic game of searching for clues on the internet. yeah i cheated a bit, kept using the telephone and skipping out on some puzzles, but overall wasn't so bad. the story goes is that this carnival owner who saw her fate of being murdered at midnight, request the master detective, that's the player to find who's the murderer. and as the game progresses, we realise that it's not her carnival employees who's going to murder her, but rather an old nemesis of the master detective, well, not really a nemesis, but rather a strange character which brings us back to the previous instalment of MFC, Ravenhearst. apparently, in the previous instalment, we, the master detective set free the soul of a girl trapped in Ravenhearst manor by her obsessive lover. and a twist of fate led us to realise that the mission the Queen of England has entrusted us was actually unfinished. there is still a missing page to the diary of the poor girl which incidentally, led to the release of the vengeful soul of the lover. claiming that we are the ones who stole his love, he has tracked us down to kill us, in the process, killing madame fate. and with that, the master detective receives a call at a lone phone booth, a call from the Queen herself, telling the master detective about the glitch, and the story ends with the distraught Queen wanting the detective to return to Ravenhearst at once, and a loud piercing scream from the detective when the phone booth was overshadowed by a familiar apparition.

well, that leads me to two question. will the 5th instalment be a return to Ravenhearst? or would we have to go back to the previous game to see for ourselves the ultimate truth? shrugs.

and about this whole killing thing... Madame Fate herself is afraid of being murdered. but has she thought about why people hate her? frankly, from her comments about her own employees, we can tell she's a mean person. it's not about the little things that she do to annoy her, like telling the two acrobats off for pickpocketing, or the guy to stop smoking. but rather her own attitude perhaps?

well, enough about the game, pretty freaky if you ask me, to be up late into the night, or rather morning, and hear screams and wails and ghostly revenges.

excessive laughter can lead to death, i almost forgot about that when i was, uhm.... laughing my head off while looking at something hilarious beyond reason. it's really funny, if you are in the bad guy's point of view, watching an ant squirm, or in a good/bad guy's point of view, watching a stubborn donkey struggle with the simplicity of life. it's like watching 'just for laughs'.

shrugs.

anyway i finally got my psp. and turns out, some things, if you want it, just go for it, instead of lying around brooding about it, contemplating blah blah blah. because in the end, the more you think about something, the more it's going to deviate from the perceived reality.

take that psp for example. i'm trying to find a good deal, which ends up, one whole big round, i didn't get what i want.

on the other hand, sometimes it's better to think further when in a situation, instead of just letting go. it's like letting go of a vine when swinging, and in the end you fall down the cliff, and need to find another way up and across.

until i find out how it really works, i'm not going to rest, frankly...

either way, i'm still laughing.

WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! laugh hysterically, maniacally, whatever you call that.

allow me to explain why am i laughing.

whenever i see people who point finger about anything at someone else, and while they are the ones making that stupid all time silly mistake or are the ones who are in the more urgent need to realise that they themselves are the ones ought to be shot for that comment, i want to laugh.

seriously! ok, let's not say that i can see all my flaws, but at least, first and foremost, i'm not the one who would point fingers first, or rather, i get hit by deja vu very easily, so yes, i can see sometimes i'm the one who do such things, and yes i'll try to stop. at least i'm making the effort to change. give me some credit...

well since the very old days, people have told us not to laugh when people fall down. but when people keep falling, to an extend that they don't realise they fell and that they repeatedly do the same thing and the keep falling. well, i don't know, you switch on the tv and see circus clowns falling, you'll laugh. point proven.

ok ok, now for something that's more recent. just this morning i attended the so-called first half of my cousin's wedding. hmm... long time since they have such a gathering, so yes i went, dressed like an idiot, but that's not the point. strangely, i had to do the tea-ceremony, and well, it went quite quickly and (shrugs). then we went to a theatherette for their church-like ceremony. rather draggy, since they had to say everything twice, english and mandrin. okay... not so bad, quite funny, and teary, and yes, the bride, ALWAYS the bride, who when thanking their parents, cry. and well, my 'er biao sao' was funny, she lowered the mic quickly and asked my cousin for tissue, in the usual way we want tissue from friends with two 'tissue's hurriedly said. well, i was tearing, and for a fleeting moment, (bear with me, i know it's not possible.) i wondered if i will end up the same, crying. i know my mum will definitely need a box of 200 pieces 3 ply tissue. but yeah, i'm wondering if i'll be crying myself. ok i know it's not possible of me dressing all white and standing somewhere near an altar or whatever, but that's just a thought. cos, hmm.. i didn't go to my doctor-cousin's wedding ceremony in the morning, but apparently she cried somewhere or sometime. (shrugs)

and apparently, pardon me my christian friends, even some of my cousin's friends said, that the Bible stated the conduct of wives to husbands is contradicted by the modern day mentality of women power. and UGC textbook has told us yeah, in the past women are subordinated to men, suppressed by men, la la la la la. not that i've something against what's written in Genesis 2 something, can't remember what that guy said. just that yeah, it's hard nowadays it's not possible for women to submit to men fully. well, (shrugs) we'll watch and see?

alright enough rambling of random stuffs which i don't want to elaborate properly, not when Hairspray is playing behind this window and singing 'Ladies' Choice'.

i still want that psp, and still crazy over Grimmjow, and ByakuyaXRenji. ohohohohohohohoho!

oh, i'm still crazy about byakuya, so yeah. two *** and **** guys. ohohohohohohohoho! well, pardon me, since i don't have anything else to be crazy about, so yeah. (wink)

yes, i am irritated now.

frankly it has been a long time since i wanted something to do with entertainment. don't count in my mp3 player and my laptop, because those are necessities. don't ask me why, if you are my friend, you should know why i say that.

just a simple PSP, and it's all the trouble in the world. you know i never asked for a nintendo-ds, or the previous versions of gameboy starting from colour all the way to advance and beyond. well, not that i didn't want it, but i didn't see it comparable to my imagination, aka brain. but i have no idea why i want that PSP, yes i see a lot of people using it on the train, on the bus, basically everywhere. and not that i want to fit in or something, i really want to be the one controlling my favourite Byakuya, if possible Grimmjow and killing off some idiots in the game, Kurotsuchi, Nnoitra and Szayel are the firsts, if possible...

but nope, alas, people change their minds ever so easily, just as how i decided i want a 'Piano Black' PSP when i first saw the name, and changing it to 'Ceramic White' when i saw Kubo-sensei writing that a white PSP would suit Byakuya.

one thing, i hate my course. people are ever so using it against me. and that's the bloody hell irritating thing about being a communication student. and i've lost count of how many times i've said that there people expect the most out of us in our specialisation, and damn it, people don't see both sides of the coin.

on the other hand...

i've seen my fair share of blown-up heads, and the result is... i don't even want to talk about it. not that i give a damn about it, or that they are of any concern to me, to the fact that i don't bother about anything outside the radius of 100 cm from me. but it just puts someone as emo as me into a very irritated mood when i meet such stuff.

for now, i think i am adopting Grimmjow's medicine capsule capacity of tolerance.

for all i care, if someone irritate me beyond my limit of tolerance, i can safely say that i'm not the kind who would spare a thought about saving at least a shred of face for the person. and i am that kind of person who, if you want to argue, prepare for war. i will fight, and you will die.

which by the way is the outcome of the epic battle between good and evil in Pirates of the Caribbean.

and for the love of peace, use the damned brain you are born with to think just a little further than you always do, and probably you'll see the awakening truth surrounding you and probably at that time, you'll realise why. but the way i look at it, it'll probably be too late to realise how deep you are in the quicksand and that you're probably never going to make it out of there alive.
