Adventure...

Ohmygosh... Unknowingly, it has already bee like 2 week since I've last done any blogging!!! With all tt's been happening - 2 outings, a term paper to complete and keeping track of stuff before sch officially starts - I've been truly preoccupied to actually find time to sit and stare @ the com for 2 hrs and allow the inspiration to flow to my fingers...

Indeed, trying to have a social life, mug and date my computer @ the same time... I'm really biting more than I can chew... Come on, you do know tt juggling 2 balls' simple... Tt's what I've been doing all this time... But to suddenly expect me to juggle 3 balls and to do it like a pro, it's on the brink of impossible... Not to mention tt what I'm juggling aren't balls of equal sizes... Imagine one's a bowling ball (you can easily guess what this represents), the other a tennis ball and the last one's a ping pong ball... It's downright impossible...

Anyway, now tt all the pics have been uploaded on everyone's [FaceBook]'s account, there's really no point in blogging abt those events... Rather, I should blog abt what happened today... I did mocked [XP] abt taking the wrong bus and all, but she got the last laugh today when I realised tt I myself took the wrong shuttle bus too... Unlike [XP], I didn't blindly take any bus tt comes, but I wrongly assumed tt shuttle bus [A1/A2]'s a loop service... I only found out when I arrived @ some god-forsaken area which I doubt I'll ever set foot, period... @ least it's the terminal and it's a free shuttle bus service, so I only lost time, not $$$ (thank goodness for tt)...

On a brighter note, I did learn a valuable lesson...

Moving on, I saw [XP] doing her promotion for her [Kendo] CCA and I also met up with [MJ] before she has to do her matriculation... I actually wanted to meet her for lunch @ [MegaBites], but tt plan was busted when I realised tt her freshie talk lasted till like 1400 hrs... And there's free food for her too!!! With cake!!! GAH!!! I so wanted to sneak into her freshie talk @ [LT17], but since it has already been like 1 hr into the talk, I couldn't just walk into the LT... Not with some ppl @ guarding the back entrance with what I noticed papers on a table... No doubt attendance sheets...

Anyway, [MJ] didn't eat the free food and socialise, but took the shuttle bus and met up with me... I initially wanted her to meet opposite [YIH]... Yet she missed the stop and I had to travel to the bus stop outside {UHC]... Zzz... SO much walking on foot... LOL... Don't get me wrong... I'm whining for the sake of whining only... I'm not complaining... Wait, I am complaining, but only for the long hrs standing w/o sitting... Pffftt... I've been on my foot for the whole afternoon... =_=

Okay, where was I??? Yep, before [MJ]'s matriculation... We went to have a look @ all the laptops on sale and gawd!!! [Fujitsu LifeBook S6520] is really a cool dude... It's anorexic but it's still possible to shave off a few more hundred grams by removing the DVD drive... And if you want it to last longer, replace the DVD drive with another bat pack, so tt's 2 bat pack cramped into the slim dude... Aaaannndddd the best part??? It's white!!! WHITE!!! GAH!!! *Goes crazy*

The down-side of it is it's high buy price... Almost $2.4+k, after considering the GST... *Sigh* Guess I'll take this weekend to think abt it before committing myself... Oh, OH!!! And the matric fair is damn unfair de lor... All the freebies and good offers are only available for a limited number of customers a.k.a while stock last throughout the whole fair... So for those ppl who matriculate early, such as ppl from [Biz], [Design] and [Computing] who went to the fair today, which is the 1st day, they'll totally benefit from it as they'll be able to get their hands on the freebies, unlike ppl who will be matriculate later, say [Eng] and [FASS]...

Then again, even if they have any inside info, they still can't buy the laptops as they don't have their student cards... LOL... Well, I can only say it's too bad lor... Haha... Surprisingly, I'm sadistically happy over this... *Shakes head*

Okay, before I indulge in [Dragonica] and contemplate whether I should sign up and install [Second Life], should I think abt taking up any CCAs??? Like in-line skating??? Or maybe taking up a part-time job @ the sch's [Munchy Monkey Cafe]??? We have to clock a min of 4 hrsa wk and it's only serving and clearing the food, I supposed and the pay's $5.50/hr... Plus point of this is tt instead of paying to waste my time, I'm actually earning some pocket money instead...

The [E-Gaming] club's also cool... LOL...

Ho-ho, and I almost forgot... After the trauma of my [Understanding The Universe] term paper and term test, I've to mentally prepare myself for yet another week-long nightmare - orientation...

[Biz OWeek 2009] Trailer...



The video's totally speechless... It's not even mysterious or thrilling or scary... [Harper's Island] gives a much better scare... Okay, tt's not what I'm trying to drive @... What I'm trying to drive @ is the masquerade ball... It's so 'WTH?!' How on [Mother Nature] am I gonna produce a decent mask w/o looking really like a freak show??? And a mask is like so [Zorro] or [Phantom Of The Opera] lor... Ugh...

I can hardly stand today's not-so-crowded matric fair with ppl shoving paper into my face and my bumping into human beings... The thought of going through something much worse than tt in 2 wk's time is... ... I'm feeling queasy just thinking abt tt... =S
