Crumbling Reality...

All this while, I've been blogging on a weekly basis as I do believe tt the more days there are b/w my entries, the more content there will be for every entry... Which makes sense and was working very well for the past few yrs or so until recently when I'm showing signs of a crumbling social life and experiencing the harsh reality of aging...

I headed to [XP]'s house yesterday and I had a great time playing [Persona 4], [CTR] and her [Naruto] VS game... However, @ the end of my 6 hrs game marathon, I'm forced to admit 2 things...

1. I've really deproved in my car-racing ability when it comes to [CTR]... WTH la!!! I can no longer hog the 1st position and have been kicked, pushed, bumped, blasted to the 2nd last position... This. Is. Unbelievable!!! Then again, it's true tt practice makes perfect and the reverse holds true too... My lack of practice has resulted in my fall from grace... Ouch...

2. It could be the lack of exercise or it could be tt and old joints... After 6 hrs, I found out tt unlike the past, I couldn't maintain my sitting position cross-legged w/o feeling the cramps... It's so URGH!!! I couldn't stretch my long legs while playing as the wire of the controllers aren't tt long and neither could I lean on the wall to stretch my legs as the wall's too far away... Of course, now tt I think abt it, I could've dragged another chair and sit on tt, but I... Well, I was too pre-occupied with the [Naruto] battle to consider tt option...

Damn... I'm old and in a mth's time, there's no denying tt any longer as ppl 2 yrs my junior's gonna swamp me...

On a less depressing note, I finally satisfied my ice-cream craving yet again on [Tue] before my lec @ 1600 hrs by meeting [YH] and [XP]... We headed to [Mad Jack]'s for lunch and I initially wanted to eat the meatball baked rice... However, after considering tt I need to leave stomach space for my 3 plus scoops of ice-cream and a mudpie @ [Island Creamery], I decided to settle for a [Beef Lasagne] and half a plate of [Cheesy Mixed Fries]...

And [Mad Jack] is so nice to students!!! Students are able to enjoy a 25% discount!!! I mean, tt's a lot of $$$ saved and it even covers the GST charges...

Headed to [Island Creamery] immediately after the lunch and this time, there's a new addition to the ice-cream family - [Pear Sake]!!! Initially, I fear tt eating tt would intoxicated... I know, I know... If I can get drunk by eating 1 scoop of ice-cream (which for the record, is ridiculous), I'm totally useless... Besides, like what [YH] said, the sake content was like non-existent, so I gave it a try and indeed, it tasted like pear-flavoured ice-cream...

3 scoops of ice-cream and a mudpie later, I made my way to sch and surprisingly, [XP] tagged along as well... She even gave me a tour of various places in sch like the music library, which really, has very little visitors... However, for every study table present, there's a 4 powerpoints below the table, which means tt all 4 ppl are able to use their laptops w/o the risk of a dead battery... This is unlike the other libraries which I've been to so far, where powerpoints are like a rare save point in a high level area in any RPG game...

In addition, [XP] also brought me to the other LTs in the [Faculty Of Science], showing me how some LTs are damn big, while others have tons of powerpoints in them before joining me for my [Understanding The Universe] lecture... And speaking abt my course, the course is interesting despite me totally forgetting the [Physic] concepts of gravitational and magnetic forces and how they're applied to the concept of the various planets revolve around the sun in addition to the other minor bodies such as the asteriod belt b/w [Mars] and [Jupiter] and the [Kuiper Belt Objects] - the family of stuff where [Pluto] now belongs to...

Furthermore, get this, 1 slide in the lecture said tt the probability of getting killed in the [USA] by a meteor is equivalent to tt of a person dying by a plane crash, which has a percentage of occurance of 0.005%, which I don't think is really tt accurate... And I think it's not really tt impt anyway... I mean, I seriously doubt tt the MCQ test will ask such questions anyway... -_-"'

Amazingly, [XP] fell asleep during the lec... And it happened before the 30 mins mark was reached!!! *Gasp*

Hmmm... Moving on... Just a forthnight ago, [Digital Life] has a review on yet another [MMORPG] - [Dragonica] - tt's not offered by [AsiaSoft], but rather, by [iahgames.com], the body tt's offering [Granado Espada]... Tempted by the reviews, I went to DL the game and gave a test play and before I knew it, I was hooked by the cutesy pics and 3-D like gameplay...

Dragonica Dragonica (2) Scenes from the [Hero Quests]... It's like a story mode for the game...

Big Bad Wolf Vega Me defeating the boss monsters and they begging me for mercy... Muhahaha!!! *Sadistic laughter*

LOL... I've a strange desire to kill monsters tt're cute... Why is tt?!?!

Before I end off, next [Sat] is gonna be an epic one... [The Games Expo] will be held @ [SunTec] from 3rd to 5th of [July]... And since [Fri] is only for VIPs, the mass media and other by-invite only ppl, I've no choice but to appear @ tt even on [Sat], to check out the games available... More importantly though, is to chatch the ppl cosplaying... Yes!!! There'll be a cosplay event and competition as well!!! This time, I'll be bringing a real cam to the event, unlike the previous yr, I dumbly brought only my HP to act as a cam as well... Totally stupid lor... Zzz... -_-"'

All in all, charge and equip 10 megapixle cam by [Fri]... Arrive @ [SunTec] on [Sat] by 10 am... Tt's the plan... Woots!!! ;)


The following vid is a song tt's playable in [AuditionSEA]... I think it's nice... ^_^
