Nice Wed! :)

(at the store)

was surprised why i felt so awake today the entire day at work and in class... even though class was like crap coz the dumb lecturer just went thru the syllabus like bullet train.... wa lau eh, the stupid demand theory was ok but she didnt even elaborate, simply "browse" thru lor... fedup~ good thing i decided to buy the text.... proli will wait for the 2nd book since jack and kev haf the same book....

gosh, lunch was good! :p headed to taka wif ash to Bakerzin since she wanted to try after i told her how good it was. in the end managed to get eric a slice of Strawberry ShortCake which he said was from "magazine" -_-''' anyway tat aside, i bought a slice of Opera for lunch and a nice cupcake for dinner. the plastic bag was nice.... anyway, i enjoyed my Opera coz it had walnut in it and the taste was a lil' heavy which left an after taste than compared to Mac's. i luv Mac's Opera but credits to Bakerzin's. think Eric didnt enjoy his Strawberry ShortCake lol~ too bad~ the Fluffiness and Softness in your mouth... ooooo~ lol~ :D

(the box)
(Strawberry ShortCake)
(Opera-secretly eaten by my bro lol)
(Rasberry Cupcake-dinner)

Evolution!

Today i learnt some crappie stuff in class... sad to say, i'm a creationist, not a evolutionist... lol~ we learnt that management/economics is a kind of evolution theory and i was like:"ridiculous". sorry if i offend anyone of you but simply i dun believe in the "Big Bang Theory" by our "beloved" Charles Darwin. if you actually went to read some of his Origins of Species; even himself says that many of his stuff are to be proven...

anyway tat aside, today's class was once again ridiculously mundane and boring especially the 1st half. thoughts of "escaping class came to my mind... lol~ anyway, thk god i didnt run. 2nd half seems relatively important and i think the lecturer got an idea how to "captivate" the students, EXAM-based. immediately upon saying that, the class quieten and gave her the attention she wanted. several a times towards the end, i was expecting her to tell the class to shut up, pity my "forecast" failed... lol~

coming towards the end, jack was kinda bored, he drew some crap and i was laughed out loud on his "creation" of evolution! lol~


our definition of "evolution"

banana -> stone -> bread -> money

i seriously lol n this crap. cheers to Charles Darwin. no offense~ :p

good night for now~

today is the 1st day of school... man i had a boring day at work and i almost doze off a couple of times.... shatz~ i'm gonna to head straight to bed after this.

yeah, today's the 1st day of school.... i brought with myself a new set of thinking to be a motivated good student... but guess what? my lecturer is crap.... 1st thing:" no using of phones in my class" 2nd:" no talking in class". i was like 0_0 WTH??? ridiculous.... after a while i was ok and she was monotonous and suddenly the class started to talk she asked us to shut up! gosh! i'm put off totally.... anyway, her class is damn boring and i'm having to go thru this crap for another 6 days.... shatz man~ think i will buy textbook (1st text since starting the entire course -_-") to help myself. gonna break the bank for this.... :(

anyway, a huge thks to Mr Darren aka Surge for giving me the great honor to be a guest reviewer on his successful toy blog. thks bro, really thks for giving me this opportunity. below is the link: http://dwtoyspot.blogspot.com/2009/04/review-hottoys-ironman-mark-ii-with.html

Daily Thoughts...

Maybe i should start something like this...

today had a LONG chat with yun on the phone(think her hp bill gonna explode =X ). anyway, felt much better after a good talk with her. earlier of the day, alot of thoughts and mixed feelings was going through my mind. honestly speaking, i'm not someone who shares or shows my emotions outwardly but rather, i keep alot of myself to myself. i also do not know why, i only hope others to see the best of me and my closer ones that i protect. maybe this is being selfish but its just not me to share the weaker side of myself. today i think i lost myself and really thk god dat it was to yun. yeah, i'm afraid. i know its hard to change this area of my life especially since i'm a perfectionist in nature and even thought i know jolly well this is a double edged sword. sometimes its hard to fight this battle on my own and i simply just let everything well up within and i know lots of people are the same. True friends are hard to find indeed. i just hope everything gets better as the days go by and people around me will find me a joy to be with.

school's starting tomorrow, yeah, i needa fight harder, being losing concentration. gotta go stronger when the going gets tough. tomorrow will be better for sure! :)

Fighto!

Mark II and Mark III


was quite free so decided to be a good boy and take out the batteries from Mark II (silver) so tat if i dont play, there'll be no leakage to damage these babies. man, i've gotta say, they're really awesome and you'll love it.
the articulation is impressive and the paint job is speechless. i've gotta say is that i'm really impressed on how they painted Mark II to look metal although its not. the chest looks like its with some mini screws on them( if you pay attention to the details done by Hot Toys). not just that, you can actually see that they sprayed something on the chest region that its a lil' matt. awesome job there done. as you turn to the back, u can find the similarities of that to Mark III apart from the paint color. open up the flab and u see the switch. i was tempted and i gave in. switched on and there you haf in one of the pic above. nice~ the legs are well done with the great articulation in the insides behind the flab in the calfs of the legs.
the orb or heart of tony stark is only available to proud Mark II owners. a pity i didnt manage to get the special edition from side show website but you gotta pay more and risk shipping from US. anyway, happy with my this latest toy hoot which i got it at PO price. love it baby.
put the 2 babies together and you'll instanteously fall in love with them. the smell of the paint job is still there when i took out Mark III. there you have it, Mark II and III. cheers~

more pics here for iron man lovers! :)

back to work.... -_-"

monday's back. back to work again.... man, it seems like i had a long break since i last work for "real"!!! lol~ yeah, was a long day. had a rather good start @ work until an email and sms popped by. it was hard to stomach but yeah i guessed i have to learn to pick it up. said a couple of prayers to tide me thru coz it really badly affected me throughout lunch till about 4plus when i chatted crap with L****, thks babe for cheering me up yeah!~ :)

went for movie with my bro @ cathay for Fast & Furious4. not bad, the cars were good, pity they didnt feature the latest GTR.... overall the movie was nice and a good 1.75hr movie, a lil' unexpected since i caught the previous 3 FnF already. picked up my Mark II in the afternoon. will upload some pics later on. Time to start saving again, been spending a lil' recently. :p

an ad during the movie interval caught me. i think its really really so true.
"Little imperfections are what make us perfect."
we work so hard to be the best we can be and sometimes we neglect the little things. indeed mistakes are what make us because it gives us a reason to change and improve.

Hot Sunday

shoots~ i woke up late coz was feeling dizzy and unwell.... man, decided to meet ye****** to return her stuff coz tried to borrow something off her yest. in the end, we did lunch together @ fish co and best part was there was one-for-one for sambal fish stuff. bill came up to $17+ for 2. worth it~ was too full. supposing to attend the trade fair @ suntec to brush up my trading knowledge and skills but I*** and Freddy was heading off, in the end, Ye**** and i headed to Starbucks to chill and catch up after much persuasion since the last time we chatted was almost close to 7 years~ lol~ (was it that long?) thks gal for keeping me company, lol~ :D


met Xiao*** and sis at starbucks later, then we gave them our seats since we're leaving. i psychoed Ye***** to go shopping awhile since i was bored and we managed to persuade ourselves to squeeze and check ourselves to Uniqlo coz i said we have to be "in". wahahaha~
was nice queuing and people-watching. i guess Uniqlo will only be a short hype coz i feel there's a close resemblance to Muji and Giordano-similarity. bought a pair of jeans there since it was "sale" but didnt felt sale to me. since i was there, might as well......... well, at least i'm part now lol~

shatz, the jeans didnt fit after going home to try, will have to head down there next sat since some airport buddies asked me out then. thk god for their 30-day exchange policy which i'm really impressed and additionally, free alteration. maybe, maybe they may really win loyal consumers with such services.

Post Exam...... - 18/4

Finally exam is over.... i think i kinda screwed up my exam this time round.... picked one qns wrongly to do.... haiz~ anyway, that aside since i did wat i could, rushed down for service altho i was late. service was awesome altho it didnt felt tat special as before, anyway, knowledge gained can be used next time! :)
was happy to get to know 2 new friends courtesy of yun. D**** and R****. altho i didnt manage to talk much to them, i felt they're really nice people. hope tat we can forge a new friendship. cheese~

rushed to dragonfly after service and i regret PR-ing awhile after service... oops!~ =X
anyway, managed to rush in before happy hours and got 2 towers for a good price lol~ m****, C***** and K**** came down shortly and we're boozing away. Good thing i managed to get a double cheese before boozing away else -__-''
anyway, met a new friend R***** and Ri*** was here. nice having Ri****, nice fella and i guess this is only our first mad outing and definitely not the last! lol~ Ka**** and friend came later. but i was having fun already! hahaha~ later, we decided to make C**** a member of dragonfly although she was a lil' disappointed coz she wanted the powerhouse card that looked kiddish.... grow up liao la~ :p
anyway, C**** knocked out and i was like 0_0"!! k**** was abt 92% coz he told me he still was conscious for 8%.... finance is knocking too much crap into ya bro~~~ thk god J*** came and rescued me else i would really be helpless. c**** totally knocked out and she was like a dead person when j*** and i carried her into his car. k**** slept in the cab with his 8% consciousness. Ri*** was nowhere found (m**** in the making???? =X)
anyway was really fun. pity L***** u didnt come and check them out when i was partying @ powerhouse lor.... kns u~ :p
k**** is dangerous, beware~ hahahahahahaha~

Trying to focus somehow....

Trying hard to focus on studying.... man, bonds is killing me with all the complicated formulas.... havent come to shares yet and i'm dying.... sian to the max.... PV = CF x PVIFA + PMT x (1+r)^n

thought of my fav song as i was relaxing.... lol~

雨不停落下来
花怎么都不开
尽管我细心灌溉
你说不爱就不爱
我一个人欣赏悲哀

爱只剩下无奈
我一直不愿再去猜
钢琴上黑键之间
永远都夹着空白
缺了一块就不精采

紧紧相依的心如何Say goodbye
你比我清楚还要我说明白
爱太深会让人疯狂的勇敢
我用背叛自己完成你的期盼
把手放开不问一句 say good bye
当作最后一次对你的溺爱
冷冷清清淡淡今后都不管
只要你能愉快

心有一句感慨
我还能够跟谁对白
在你关上门之前
替我再回头看看
那些片段还在不在

What I'm reading now

this is wat i'm reading now... man, i taking years to finish this.... being coped up with many stuff recently, exam in particular coming and i'm too slack.... shatz~ this is a good book, brother Jack here is a HR pro. so far i like the thing abt being candor (find out yourself if u dunno! :p). yeah, its hard to be candor but i mean, its important!

Management Theories like Deep Blue Sea by Insead's profs are really good, guess i'll picked that up when i'm free-er. Six Sigma is pretty good. Cheers for Management! bull**** lol~
