CORS is over. for now okies.. i got my EG1413 finally.. but i don't sound too happy cuz i paid 500 for it :( could have gotten it for free.. Aiya suan4 le, wad has happened has happened and all happenings occur for a reason. No point mulling too much over this. Negative energy and constant dwelling on this fact only makes me more miserable. hence.. Wee~ at least i have 5 modules in my hands now :) No more CORS worries till tutorial balloting time. I think my last core can be obtained easily too ba hopefully. :D Blogger still refuses to let me upload photos. so camp photos gotta wait. my timetable gotta wait too. 凡是看开一点。我太执著着些有的没有的，最后搞得自己郁郁寡欢，也使得周围的人厌烦。事情总有两面，而我总是让那阴暗面把我拉下无底深渊。真的，我需要学会 （1）看开 （2）作决定。 Sunday, July 26, 2009 @ 11:48 AM
A messy post grr i cant upload photos on blogger.. :S AHHHH~ so much for procrastinating.. tomolo's CORS bidding.. how how how?? Econs? Forensic Science? O.o I was actually quite set on Forensic science minor le.. BUT! i just found out that there's Chem lab which last for 7hrs each O.o how to tahan?! Now that i look at the Econs schedule again.. it's actually quite ok.. the entire thing will be manageable if i take 1 special sem with 2 mod.. $1200 (sob sob.. :`( ) 4 econs electives won't kill me! wad's bothering me is the nature of the exams. Essay? MCQ? Short answer? :O AIYO! shouldn't have slacked in year 1 :S but then again.. not that i wan2 slack, they refused to gimme my mod!! *_* i think i shld press on with Econs. if it's not my cup of tea, then do sufficient enough to get an Econs minor so that the entire thing is not wasted. Then i'd do extra 2 mod of forensic science (if they allow lor. i bet i can just appeal til i get in if i decide to be irritating enough) for exposure sake ^^ [ i think the chemistry/life sci component of FS minor is really scary! 7hr lab!!! :O ] Anw.. i've always wanted to say this.. I'm glad that I'm in Chemical Engineering ^^ So far I'm enjoying myself. haha. :D If i went to Chemistry, I might have been too bogged down by the overly science-y details and the endless hours of labs. [so far chem engin mod doesn't hav labs. not even the lvl 2000 ones that im about to take :D ] At a certain point, i did think over my decision to reject DSTA scholarship.. Maybe things ain't as bad as i though; after all even if im not bonded for that 4 years, i need not necessarily find a job i really like elsewhere too. But then again, it's all matters of the past - at least this led to my final decision to press on with Chemical Engineering :D What i thought last time was.. I didn't want to sell my future for the sake of scholarship money. Along the way, i must say the money is very tempting. Esp when im rotting at home during this long break, i cant help but to think - if only i had that $7.2k per yr; then i'd be earning $$ even as i rot as home. But once again, I'm stil glad that I chose the NUS scholarship instead, which gives me more flexibility (though more uncertainty too). And $$ isn't THAT important cuz once i start working, i can earn that $7.2k within 3 months? Since im on the issue of money.. I think i shouldn't let myself be too concered about $$ at this current stage. I only have ~3-4 years of studies left and the rest of my lifetime to earn $$. Shouldn't think about using too much time to work - study and slack when i stil hav the chance to do so le~ lol my whole post is a mess~ my mind is in a mess.. so much for procrastinating.. :X hope that everything wil turn out fine after all! :D Things happen for a reason; when they happen, accept it and life would be a smoother journey.

I'm Back! wee~ back from camp! :D
 Anw from planning to excecuting some of the activities of the camp, i realised that.. self-confidence is really important. Being afraid/paranoid that things ain't gonna turn out well or that you can't live up to expectations doesn't help in anything. Letting those psychological factors hinder the decision-making process ain't a good excuse at all. On the other hand, being able to make critical decision might turn out to be the better alternative even though that decision isn't the best possible one. At least there's a nice structure for the events to flow rather than leaving the ends hanging there. Trying your best but making mistakes -VS- wanting to try your best but in the end doing nothing hence making no mistakes? Amongst all these roles: Ocommer, councillor, OGL and freshie; i think that i like being Ocommer best. ^^ i'd definitely feel lost as a freshie and fail to be ultra enthu as a councillor/OGL. Yet as an Ocommer, you get the flexibility of schedule (sort of..) and the joy of seeing things grow from nothing to them becoming a reality. As the camp drew near, planning did become hectic as we tried to refine the details of the plan as well as to prepare for the logistics. But during the camp itself, I think it was all worth it. Interacted more with the rest too during the camp though not to the extent of being really close. at least there won't be akward situations when we all meet in school not knowing if i shld wave or say hi. the 3 of us basically just stuck together most of the time haha.. and i think they r gg O.o from my randomness. WAHAHHA :D  Outside our chalet, we had this decoration -.- Monday, July 20, 2009 @ 9:40 PM
Camp~ blogger doesn't look right on my screen. Anw, i'm back from Day 0 of camp! LOL :) rushing some corrections. :X Anw i'm still looking forward to the camp (just not the wake-up earlier-than-6am-tomolo part)Hope that things go well!! :D Gonna try to enjoy the camp and not be overly worried about ETC stuff. okies will be back on Day 4. haha.. P.S. Is blowing a balloon until it burst in your face really that bad? LOL okies i think it's quite bad.. Change change change! Sunday, July 19, 2009 @ 6:09 PM
Absolute Boyfriend Special Finale This special finale is definitely the better and more complete ending to the series. the only downfall was the addition of new plots which got a bit draggy i think. The first ending made the whole separation very sad; this particular ending was still a sad one but with elements of happiness since they both came to a consensus on how they can best live their lives. Night was programmed to like Riiko and she is the only one that he can love. Even if his ego was awakened eventually, the whole relationship wasn't that natural. Also, though Riiko really really liked Night, she knew that they can't live a life together. He wasn't someone that she could grow old with. At the same time, Night saw the point that he will be the only one that remained constant - he had to love Riiko and he wouldn't age. It was the same painful conclusion reached by both of them separately. What touched and irked me simultaneously previously was the fact that Night kept his ailing condition from Riiko because he thought it was best for Riiko. hmms sometimes i just feel uncomfortable when people do things thinking that it's the best for the other party when it might not turn out to be the case. it's even worse when it's done out of true concern cause it leaves you even more miserable. Kept in the dark for your own good? Grateful for the concern. but it's double the misery to find out the truth after that and know that you were kept in the dark all these while. What's better this time round was that both party decided to discuss the issue with each other. Riiko wasn't thinking of hiding her thoughts because she thought it would hurt Night. Neither was Night thinking of scraping himself again without a word because he thought it would be better for Riiko not to know. 即使必须面对残酷的现实，至少也给自己与对方一个完整的交代。  I liked this scene where Night realised he could tear. He's doing something that completely out of his program; something he truly did for Riiko's sake. The last scene was really cruel but necessary and i liked the way they handled it. Night turned Riiko around and pushed her forward; Riiko walked forward without turning back at all. 要结束的事始终会结束，拖拉只不过是给人一种一切如常的幻觉与延续痛苦的办法罢了。 What disturbed me previously was also the fact that Night will forever remain a barrier between Riiko and Soshi. What salvaged this situation now is that Riiko finally has the answer and can truly accept Soshi, while retaining the best of Night within her memories. ^^ @ 12:14 PM
Simple breakfast woke up relatively early today so went to Blk 216 for breakfast with my parents :) As usual, i had my bean curd. I like the silver spoon -.- ok not the point. It's really good and cheap. i wanted to order the Barley Ginko Nuts dessert de, but it's only on the monitor menu not the written menu, so i dunno got anot :S Nvm, next time i shall check it out.  Checked out the pancake that my mum likes alot. Wa, really not bad. It's got a fragrant after taste and the filing's really generous.  i think my sore throat's back :( come on.. recover in time for camp!!! Esp before the BBQ on day 3! im gonna attack all the food siah!!! Chicken Wing? Satay? Sotong? Stingray? FOOD!!! :)Friday, July 17, 2009 @ 6:05 PM
Thinking through a choice okies i've said that i'm gonna consider the issue with econs today.. but i ended up watching shows, gg out for lunch, playing mahjong on fb :S well at least im looking at my timetable now -.- my honest opinion now is that.. I think i'm gonna be very miserable remaining in econs.. (1) i basically know almost no one in econs. but tt doesn't matter as much cuz im used to gg for one module/sem alone. the worst part is, after 4 yrs, i'm gonna spend 1-2 more sem alone - no lunch kakis!! :O tt's bad! (2) The more i look at the recommended schedule, the more miserable i feel. even if i said, "it's ok, i can live with it", it's just 勉强 only :S What's so bad..?
Putting aside all these technical and practical issues and move on to the issue of interest..
Career prospects-wise..
So my current feeling is that.. I should press on with forensics sci minor. Enjoy my 4 yrs uni life. And i might have time for CCA (no no.. CCA end too late.. i dun wan to catch nite trains :S) but actually i do hav 2 CCAs in mind - Ge Yao (not singing.. as lyricist la~) and Film Arts (im only interested in scriptwriter actually -.- and maybe a little bit of role of director). My frens and I are considering joining Engin Club's Welfare department :) i thikn that's wad i like too~ As for CIP, i've tried to organise my frens to join some volunteer work (which they responded enthusiastically) just that er.. we nv got past the registration stage :S a convenient excuse is we forgot, the real reason is that im too lazy to put the acts together. :( @ 2:53 PM
Absolute Boyfriend (Zettai Kareshi) Just finished watching Absolute Boyfriend. ^^ Decided to catch the last 3 eps online cuz quite tiring to stay up late.  Nice show! ^^ Entertaining and funny; touching and sad in its own way; plus it sets us thinking about certain stuff..  (From left) Night wearing the sweater Riiko made for him; Riiko; Soshi.The ending's sad :`( Night "died" and Riiko left for Paris with Soshi after all. I guess she still had to go on living her life as a human with humans at the end of the day. Night's appearance was a 小插曲 in her life that I'm sure she won't forget. I liked the way how Night learnt how to become Riiko's boyfriend from an ideal boyfriend. He was really silly initially, eg. knocking his head against the ceiling cuz he din know he had to bend down or registering weird name for others lol. Got irritating at times because he was acting according to his programme, not what the circumstances called for. Slowly from these setbacks, he learnt how to truly care for Riiko. He was no longer just a robot, despite having a machine body. His own mind developed and his ego formed; which eventually led to his "death" due to overheating.
I liked the part when Night was revealed to be a robot at a party and everyone went from shock to disbelief and finally acceptance (though they stil thought it was more of a joke) though they din take this comment seriously, it's nice to hear them saying stuff like "even if you are a robot, you are still the life of the party!" ^^ What does our conscious constitute? Beneath the cover of meat and skin, what's there beyond that defines us for who we are? Does what you are affect the identity of who you are? Thursday, July 16, 2009 @ 9:42 PM
I think it's all Fated O.o i realised i just missed FASS's module preference exercise by 1 day.. :( This might sound like a convenient excuse.. But i think seriously since last sem, the numerous events that took place seemed to be telling me that "I'm not fated to take Econs". I dunno if i'm drawing a false conclusion or something but there's really too many unbelieveable coincidences. I dunno if DD student are still excluded from this exercise, but the fact tat i wanted to do it yesterday yet it somehow slipped my mind (especially not knowing it's the last day) showed that i'm not even fated to see the message "sorry this service is not available to you". I don't challenge/accept Fate readily; but if it's sending a strong message to me which wouldn't bring me negative consequences, it might pay to listen to it.. I shall think more about this issue tomorrow, just before camp and CORS start. Oh yes, i'm so happy watching 冷知识冲动yesterday.. cuz 陈启泰pointed out his name 山本一夫 and then later on another host was mentioning about Mongolian and suddenly he called out 完颜不破! ^^ wee~~ Don't you love watching HKATV shows at times?? :) @ 9:07 PM
The eventful Bugis Trip i just realised my Post #2000 is dedicated to Harper's Island ^^ Anw not the point.. i realise that im not fated with Yoshinoya's beef bowl :( last sun wanted to hav it, but was having flu and sore throat, so wasn't in the correct condition to eat it full of chilli. wanted to have it today cuz im gg Bugis, but my mum was simmering fish porridge (for lunch) before i woke up (like 10.30? lol), hence i ought to have lunch at home. the thing is so qiao my fren wanted to go Yoshinoya. LOL! another very close encounter with beef bowl yet a missed chance. :S And i so badly wanted to eat ShiLin XXL chicken for like months. (and i havent got to eat it yet) Yet i was so near to ShiLin Imitation stall today but dare not order cuz stil having sore throat. want to recover by camp! :X haha anw we first went to Sim Lim Square. my 3rd time there. I realise i don like it there at all. there seems to be traps all around and if you're not careful, u might end up buying imitations/faulted items/get slaughtered. Some of the shops looked shady. And i've read that some of the not-very-trustworthy shops actually opened many shops all around but under different names -.- Came back and wanted to go to Bugis Street to shop. I need new clothes, new shoes and new bag -.- (btw we concluded that the Bubble Milk Tea sold by Rockery is nice!) Halfway through we were intercepted by Insurance Promoter :S We thought we dirtied their land with our drinks cuz they were like standing in front of us, looked at our drink, then the floor :S Hence our shopping trip became a sit-down session with those sellers. Quite an eye-opener to see how they sell their policies and sometimes i get impatient when they go around in circles (get straight to the point!!) but towards the end i got quite irritated cuz.. i need the toilet urgently!! LOL! Finally got our point across that we'd rather consider with our parents first before signing for this kind of 25-yrs commitment thingy. And immediately i dashed to the toilet. lol. after we talked it through, we decided not to consider the plan after all cuz (1) we're too young (2) no fixed income (3) (to me) there'd be better plans next time and im not in a rush to save. Yet it did strike me that I wasn't doing much planning in my life. I've always thought that I'm still young; or another day. (actually i've nv ever thought of anything bout my financial status) Come to think of it, my $$'s just sitting in my bank; and i don't really feel a need to earn any income (even during holidays). But my protected life will soon end and I'll step out into the working world real soon (3-4 years) By then, I'd need to pay for household expenses, my own expenses (obviously cant wear shabbily when i work next time) and give my parents a little something. Can I really still rot now? Or is later not really late? Looking at some of my frens who hav >1 bank account, I'm thinking if I'm actually not planning enough. All I know is that $ goes into my that bank account and that's it; but I'm not really achieving a balance between saving and spending :S My guideline is: the less i withdraw, the better it is -.- as compared to others who might have different accounts for different purposes. alrights guess it's pointless to think too much if nothing's done. I'd probably still be KIV-ing everything again but once i get down to action, I'll make sure it's a fast and swift one. Efficient as always! LOL!! :) Wednesday, July 15, 2009 @ 3:45 PM
Exclusively Henry W. Dunn Found this vid of Henry.. Nicely done. with that frozen Henry smiling at the end.. Read a comment that i found to be very true.. "The only real lies in Henry's life was Wakefield. Others cared for him; be it Trish, Abby, Sully or the rest of his friends.. Wakefield distorted his mind and made him turn against those that cared for him." And i didn't think that his life was all a lie; true he was adopted, but he stil grew up, made friends, was going to get married etc. it's sad to see how he forsake all these and chose to go with Wakefield, who would then truly ruin his life. it didn't make much sense to me that it was "All About Abby" after deciding that it wasn't really the case of childhood experience. Yet some have pointed out that "Abby was the only constant in his life". True in some sense. After adoption, Abby was his childhood fren who played together with him every summer. Before adoption, Abby was his half-sister. No matter what, she was the only one who had true links with him, once he decided that his life was all a lie. I liked Chris Gorham's comment bout wad Henry's "I love you' meant when he was dying... "The 'i love you' here has gone beyond the 'i love you'. They were words to a friend he had known since a child. A form of saying goodbye." @ 3:09 PM
Life Back to Normal okies.. my life's pretty back to normal now.. All the hype about Harper's Island is slowly fading with the end of the finale; the craze about Maple is dying with the end of its Anniversay Celebration (and buruichiban reaching lvl. 80 - still one of the lowest in my guild though -.-) and the addiction to facebook (and most obviously to its bejeweled) is gone (i think...) well.. wanted to ask why did i waste my time on those stuff for the past few months, but i guess they were convenient ways for me to pass my time. Especially Harper's Island - never regretted following this show :) It's been a looonnnggg time since a detective-cum-mystery themed show made it to local tv. it's quite funny how my mind was messed with all those biazzare theories flying all over the net and how i repeatedly was unable to think properly cuz there was seriously an overload of information and clues that the forumers have collected. Yet at the end of the day, it was really something simple. lol. though i did enjoy reading what others speculate, i wished that i had stood by my own theory throughout. [and not being thrown into a state of paranoia about how all the remaining 8 might be the killer after all even though my biggest suspect remains as Henry.] anw.. i think i'm fixed on getting a SE C510 for my next phone. The thing is - what colour to get? I thought Silver would definitely be my choice cuz i've always liked shiny phones (esp that mirror front!! so shiny ^^) but the black is growing on me.. (most opinions i've read preferred black. i just hope that what i think ain't a result of wat i've read :S)  actually im quite attracted to the gold version of w910 and w595 but the poor camera is really keeping me off :S if i really get c510, prob i might consider getting a pair of SE in-ear headset to go with the camera phone. tt shld b good enough to serve my music needs :) alrights and the next issue on hand would be with econs :S i tot i had alot of time to think it through, but the truth is, i haven't even thought of it one bit since holiday started. And CORS bidding is starting in like 2 weeks' time? was talking to my fren one day about choosing between Econs or forensic science minor. we noted a very big paradox - forensic science is my interest and it's the easier choice too (in the sense that only 6 modules r needed. i dunno bout content); so what's stopping me from going this path? but she made a good point too - we cant base our choice 100% solely on interest; more or less the practicality issue comes into the picture too. i really want to start thinking about this, but the momentum is lacking :S Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 12:19 AM
Just a random checklist im gonna watch..
KIV.. cuz i want to watch shows of humans one.. no horror movie.. :S
And continue with..
Looks good. gonna keep me occupied before going for camp, then CORS bidding and then.. start of new sem... Any good movies/show to recommend?? Monday, July 13, 2009 @ 3:19 PM
YS Harper's Day: Harper's Island Finale it ended.. bohooo~~~ :( hey i think the show was GREAT!! ^^ The first time round when i watched eps 12, i was rather disappointed with Henry being the killer cuz I suspected him since eps 3.. but when i thought back about the show, I realised that the character development was great! Probably the show failed as a real mystery event (those Jap detective style) but it definitely was a good suspense show overall. :) I've been thinking about this recurring theme of childhood experience. Within these few months, I've seen Monster, V for Vendetta, and now Harper's Island reflecting this theme. It was "All about Abby" because Henry was a lonely kid and Abby was the only one whom he was able to relay to. And it was all about what Abby said when she was real young, "I wish we could spend all the time together. Just you and me." (not exact words) These were the words that impresses upon him. Just like Johan, he went on a path that seemed like a psycho from our normal point of view, but that was his warped sense of morality resulting from childhood experiences. I thought the WORST part of the finale was how Henry acknowledged Wakefield as his father..
HELLO?? You met a killer on the rampage and had a connection with him?? LOL!! should i say congrats? are you lucky or unlucky? IMO that was a weird dialogue. I dont think it's possible to "have a connection" with someone whom u saw for the first time even though he turns out to be your father later on. I liked the final few minutes of eps 13 best.. The wedding video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTwQPz8Mxc4 (Clear version but disabled embedding) It's like.. All his frens were sincerely wishing them all the best for their wedding. Yet he ruined it with his own hands. When you know that almost everyone was killed directly or indirectly by Henry, yet a few days back they were still happily celebrating for him; that kind of contrast feels really weird. Probably the saddest moments comes from the fact that the happy past are just mere memories never to return. When the screen froze for the last few sec on Henry, I sorta froze too... Weird feeling..
Probably there could have been twists in the story.. But i think this is the best it can get because it sorts of appeal to the emotional aspect.. Too many surprises and twists would render the show too intellectual and forceful (in the sense that there's twist for the sake of having twists) Eg. They can twist it by having Abby and Jimmy actually being the mastermind waiting for Henry to do all these so that they can be together with each other alone. It could have satisfied people wanting more and more twists, but the main theme about the killer would have been gone. The final few deaths were great too.. (.. cant believe im making such kind of statements.. -.-) Starting with Shane, we have Cal and Chloe. Then Danny, Trish, Sully (skips Wakefield) and Henry..
 And suddenly i realised.. that what i liked about the ending was how simple it really is.. I've always been looking out for something complicated yet it was this simplicity that touched me.. A lonely child finding joy from another child during summer and hoping that the times they spent together can go on forever. Haven't we wished for such things to happen at some point or another? That the happiness we felt at a certain moment could last forever and not stop for reality? [Edited at 6.40pm] okies rewatched part of eps 13. i realised that Henry didn't had a bad childhood life. At first i tot that the Dunn family preferred JD over Henry (cuz i saw that JD entered with house with his parents to fetch Henry + his dad was shouting at Henry). Now that I thought of it, the turning point was 7 years ago when Henry met JW (where they had a "connection" -.-). Which meant that Henry had spent genuine times with his frens and with Trish. Hence his life couldn't have been all that empty such that when JW told him the truth, he thought that everyone was a liar and that Abby was all that he could see..? [i stil cant believe that u can have a connection with someone holding a knife and belived wad he told u -.-] okies so maybe it wasn't about the childhood experience that i thought it was; rather it was just the uncovering of the truth in his later part of his life that hit him. :S [Edited 7.06pm] no no.. bad bad.. from the initial disappointment to being pleased with the backstory etc.. Now i think that the show is using the emotional aspect to mask over the rational aspect of the show. it has many questions unanswered and some stuffs were really random. now i don't feel as good about the show as before :S im fickle-minded -.- LOL! @ 1:06 PM
On the road to recovery went for final meeting before camp yest. im actually getting quite excited for the camp! :) but sigh.. i think im getting heaty. the previous nite my throat was hurting so much that i couldn't sleep. the last time check i had was at 4.00am -.- no to mention the irritating mosquito that was biting me causing me to put on my blanket which made it so hot that i cant sleep too.. :S as usual my heatiness erupted into flu then eventually fever and body aches. heh but i hang on there for Harper's Island. No way am I gonna miss the finale after the long-awaited anticipation!!! anw my symptoms were rather mild too, not like 40-degree fever or something.. Had a good nite rest ^^ woke up super late this morning and wohoo~ i feel much better. but stil got that "i just recovered from illness" feeling. :) okies im gonna declare today as Harper's Day. lol. will be gg for lunch then coming back to talk more about Harper's Island!! :) Talking about lunch.. i had Jap Flat Noodle (Rutan and Wakame) @ Yoshinoya yest! :) [wanted beef bowl.. but tot of my sore throat + the endless chilli flake that i will be adding.] It was pretty ok.. i like rutan and seaweed. but the soup had a fishy taste + it was too salty. nonetheless, I like Jap soup so much that i just had to finish it. lol. as for the noodle taste, im not too sure.. cant taste anything much with that flu. i forgot to take photo of my food :(( wad happpened to my readiness to take photos of food?! Saturday, July 11, 2009 @ 3:10 PM
Harper's Island Ep 12 wee~ HC found the link to Eps 12 ^^ Thanks! :) but grrr the killer's identity is out on eps 12 -.- looks like i misunderstood this "there's a really really really good twist at the end of ep 12. and all will be explained in ep 13." a really really really good twisi? --> not really.. -.- okies im looking forward to the "all will be explained in ep 13" part. im so gonna catch ep 13 on tv! :`( eps 12 din help me in deducing the killer, it simply told me who it was -.- let's see..
orh ok i think i somehow thought the seq was that child in ep 12 then killer in ep 13 -.- okies.. well i somehow hoped that the child wasn't the killer then it meant that i can still make some effort at deducing the murderer :S excluding the child, let's take it from the top. *oops* i think i just gave the identity of the child away :P [added on] one good thing.. i feel safer now reading forums. haha. i cant be spoilt about the identity anymore rite? :P wad's left is just the explanation which hmm usually we shouldn't be able to figure out. lol. @ 11:46 AM
Spoilt spoilt! YIKES!~ I've been spoilt about who the killer is :S Grrrr people should learn how to use spoiler tags rather than spelling out the killer's name in the topic itself. *_* And people who don wanna know spoilers should learn how to control themselves and not visit forums where people on the other side of the world would have watched the show. *oopss* isn't that me? ... I think im just unlucky. visited the website again and the spoiler thread isn't on the first page anymore :S so at least i do know that majority of the Canadians have been really considerate about posting spoilers ^^ it's just that 1 person. O.o! And im not that confident about the name i saw, was it really that name, or could it be that the topic says "xxx is the killer" and when u click it, it goes "na just joking, im from US and it hasn't shown on our side yet" -.- i din click in though; wad if im spoilt further!? :X okies nvm forget about all those spoilers. so irritating!! and episode 12 isn't uploaded but episode 13 is!! *grrr* Anw.. i've been thinking about the W in Henry's name. What if it doesn't refer to links with Wakefield but to the Wellingtons? O.o" lol okies i think im gonna hav lots of crazy theories till tomolo :O I'm having 2nd thoughts about Sully too :S oh there's a new mystery show by ABC called "Happy Town" which takes place on "Haplin". Apparently there's a magic man commiting murders 7 years ago and he's back ago. Sounds familiar? -.- oh i think M1 student plan is great~ Comes with everything singtel has and on top of that, free data bundle :) its Samsung jet costs only $298, and if you switch over, u get $100 off. Making it $198 only. Throw in a trade-in, it's only $98. :O but then again my contract ain't gonna expire anytime soon. oh wells~ Thursday, July 09, 2009 @ 5:33 PM
Hackers sgclub has been hacked! o.o today when i used the website, i was like ?!?! why they use black colour for background? gotta highlight the text in the forum to read. :S (was reading up on phones) searched for another phone and was led to the same website again. Tat's when i realised.. there were words like "Hacked by ... for ..." (I forgot who) lol so i made a quick exit and clear my history and temp internet file. :S not that anything bad's gonna happen to me in the first place or it's gonna help if im infected somehow :X And people on other forum were suggesting that.. they should hack into the hacker's account and restore sgclub -.- tat'd be funny though :S @ 11:41 AM
Last day for Harper's Island before spoilers fly around woa just read the original script for Harper's Island Pilot and Eps 1. [so this is how scripts are written..] anw.. considering the fact that the killer hasn't changed from then to now.. It might be interesting to note that whatever suspicious things that Booth was doing in the show was actually supposed to be done by Sully (dropping the beer bottle into the water where Cousin Ben lies). It might be even more interestin to note Sully's conversation with Shep (er i think Shep became Booth later on -.-) (not in exact words) Shep: I think i drank too much; im already seasick. I dont think im gonna make it guys. i'm gonna die on the ship. Sully: You're not dying on the ship; you're gonna die on the island. He doesn't know. Danny: Stop freaking him out. so it wasn't Chloe that first brought in the concept of "Wakefield" into the picture. and im very convinced that Trish is jealous of Henry's closeness with Abby. (Then again, who wouldn't?? They're far too close aint they? -.-) Anw in the late nite show interview with Chris Gorham, he apparently said that the killer was one of them in the room. (There was him (Henry), Sully, Shea, Madison, Jimmy) Hmm Trish apparently fell down the bluff (wad's that?!); Danny and Abby are missing (HERH! dead? no la.. cant be..) It's interesting to note that when Jimmy tells Henry they need to go help Trish, Henry wasn't all that worried. He merely grabbed the gun away from Jimmy and said they got JW. lolx. i knew it, it has to be Madison. ROFL na im just joking.. So weird.. When Craig asked, "So are you the murderer?" Chris said, "That's right. I can't say. You'd have to watch!" lol maybe it's just their way of talking :S Last day before i go hiding under the rocks.. Wednesday, July 08, 2009 @ 10:15 PM
Heal the World Make it a Better Place I didn't know Micheal Jackson had such a big impact. @ our old fren's gathering today, we spent some time talking about him. When we k-ed, we chose one of his songs. (it's not likely to appear usually) Yeah, it's funny how people become much more famous after their deaths. (I'm not sure how famous he was during his peak.) I guess when someone dies, people who've been influenced by the person in some ways or another just come together to remember the person and his/her deeds. In MJ's case, he probably had die-hard fans, some others who admired his music, others who just heard about him. With his death, it brought together practically almost everybody. I must say the greatest impression i had of him was his plastic surgeries and some of the lawsuits he had. Yet all the hype that's going on now definitely made me think that I havent seen him for what he's good for. Yet today we remember, tomorrow we talk about it, one week from now other news take over and one month from now it's out of some of our minds. Fans would be constantly reminded but society as a whole tends to forget.. Unless purposefully reminded, that is. @ 10:02 PM
K session @ Kampong Chai Chee CC Met up with sarah huichan seehui and binfang today ^^ Lunched at Bedok hawker centre. AND! i forgot to take photo of the food -.- i was planning on how to take those photos at home (1 for food only and 1 for food with owner + food united :X) okies anyway.. I want to eat Hui chan's duck rice!!! :( i had tang yuan, which was obviously not filling enough, so we went to Mac where i grabbed a spicy chicken snack. funny eh, i have a Mac in my faculty and everytime i will say i want to try this out yet i waited for 3 whole months before getting down to buying it. Headed down to the KTV @ Kampong Chai Chee CC ^^ I stil don't quite understand the pricing. It writes "Student's deal - $8 for 5 hrs" but actually it's $5 each :S Nvm, it works to our advantage.. rite?? lol. and HEY the songs are quite updated! :) Got hei qun zi wor~ Song system ain't bad at all, comparable to Kbox i think. [After coming home, i realise there's some songs that i wished i had "ordered" but din. Oh wells, it's always like this rite? :P] Lots of things happening too. Got ppl singing, others trying to swallow the mike, ppl talking about Harper's Island, some trying to leave like a superstar, some falling down, others jumping up, people were shocked, humble, unglam and crazy. LOL ok just joking, we're perfectly sane. *Note: I haven't defined what's sane..  Had a rather fun and enjoyable day. Hope it's the same for the others too ^^ @ 11:37 AM
A Random Realisation I've always thought deng lu jun's "何日 君 再来" is.. “何 日军 再来”-.- the original tune was written in 1940s (i think..) hence im even more convinced that it's supposed to be a song that wonders when the jap soldiers wil be back.. -.- okies it's just some bad listening =S Tuesday, July 07, 2009 @ 12:15 PM
Why is Wakefield still alive?? lol putting aside the fact that it didn't appear to me as a good twist... It's quite irritating how he is still alive cuz now we dunno who's doing what :S It could be Wakefield, it could be one of the 25. Just look at episode 11, everything's done by Wakefield (either directly or indirectly..) *grr* Okies i've been thinking it through.. Why is it "All about Abby?" How does everything fit? I don't see how most of the people who died are connected to Abby.. The Dunns, The Wellingtons, Booth, Malcolm, Shane, Cal and Chloe etc. I can't see these deaths centering around her. okies Nikki is her fren but she died in an unplanned way. The Sheriff died but him being the Sheriff is an obvious hate target for criminals? Anyway.. JD said.. "It's all about you, Abby" And then wakefield goes "You don't know??" Could it be that JD was supposed to tell Abby something but dies before he manages to do so and hence Wakefield went "?! how could you not know? i tot i told u??" What exactly did Wakefield want the Sheriff to tell Abby before killing him? He could have just killed her, why plan all these and plant a walkie talkie over there? I think im trapped in a fixed picture about the murders. motivations i've seen or thought about includes, jealously, revenge, hatred, money etc. But i'm really expecting something more than this, something more spectacular and shocking... Yet i cant seem to think of it.. [Edited at 6.55pm] re-watched eps 10.. Something's weird. Abby, Henry and jimmy were exploring the tunnel and Abby is the only one that could fit in. Yet when that trap door came down, Henry was IN the tunnel trying to save Abby. And Henry said.. "Stay with your dad. Lock the doors after i leave" Quite an unnatural statement. Another funny thing is.. Why was it that it is Sully who realised Beth went missing? Shouldn't it be Trish or something since she's her fren? How was Beth brought into the tunnel and killed?

Harper's island in 6 days 6 more days to HI's finale!! Who's the murderer? Who's the child?? Been bombarded with all sorts of theories i see on forums.. such that im losing track of my thoughts :S Attempted to re-watch eps 1 and 2.. And i think I ain't gonna get more clues anyway.. I'm not sure how the clues should work. Logical deduction? (been trying to do this..) Literally clues as in, some writings or scribbling in some hidden corner that we're supposed to note? (People have pointed out lots of mis-spelling.. and they think it might spell the name of the murderer.. Is this the kind of clue we're supposed to see? If it is, I think i might get disappointed :S) Some obvious things, eg. characters that look like murderers? (they said sully looked like JW and hence is his child -.- personally i wil go ?!! if that's the clue im supposed to pick up) I thikn im confusing myself with all the crazy theories flying all around. Probably im going crazy myself too.. haha.. And personally i still think there's something wrong with Henry.. [He's always around Abby.. I thought he only started sticking around Abby when everyone blamed her (or her father..)] Now that I've rewatched, it does seem as though he's always with her. Much more than Trish actually.. He's really everywhere too..Many other incidents too that made him more and more suspicious.. He'd made many decisions that turned out to be a bad one.. Eg. leading them to the marina when the boat is gg to explode and hence forcing everyone to take shelter in the Cannery, deciding to leave to find Abby with Danny leaving only 1 guy left to protect the gals (and indeed JW came to wreck the place) and not forgetting his decision to burn the truck to "distract" the killer. (i really tot it was a dumb move..) Are these supposed to be suspicious acts that implies his guilt? Or were they just poor choices made under the wrong circumstances? Just obvious red herrings?? And there's other lamer clues too.. like Henry's name is "Henry W. Dunn" and he was wearing that purple cap with a big W on it. Probably not supposed to mean anything.. but i don't see how the prop guy would accidentally or coincidentally hand him a cap with a big W to wear.. @ 10:35 AM
星光 " 我的音乐故事”
看见另一个参赛者楊駿文演唱“你不是真正的快乐”。突然觉得或许我们大家也不是真正“不是真正的快乐”。听见这首歌就会自动想起自己的阴暗面，因而容易与歌曲有所共鸣。但所有人真的那么不开心吗？还是他们自己认为自己不开心呢？ 白天不懂夜的黑 或许诉说人与人之间的关系吧。从他人角度了解彼此实在难。你就是你，他就是他，我们能知道彼此的立场，却很难真正了解，就好比白天不懂夜的黑。黑与白得不分明，或许就是因为你的白是他的黑？ @ 12:07 AM
Some old shows I realise ch8 shows some old movies on sunday afternoon. A break from computers. :) Actually for watching shows, i think i stil prefer the tv over computer. Clearer vision, appropriate distance (screen not so small that i cant see from afar, neither do i get dizzy cuz i need to be too near the screen). best part is that i have no control over the pace of the show. I can't fast forward it, slow it down, replay certain parts. You see everything just once, either you catch it or you don't. The pacing of the show goes according to how the director wants it to be, probably the best pace to enjoy the show.. First show was some Shaolin show. I cant imagine such films in today's context. Haha but i was adequately entertained with all their realman stunts. I liked the 2nd one.. 龙凤斗 lol before you start thinking it's some ancient show.. It's actually starred by Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng :) I quite like the way they get along.. Probably a bit treacherous (cuz they're like stealing here and there and probably lying here and there) but the thing is, there's no real ill intent of malice involved. It's just their psyche, and when 2 persons with such weird habits get together, it's certainly fun (being them).. I slept halfway through though.. Nothing wrong with the show, I'm just tired. I'm glad i caught the ending.. Really Really quite nicely done.. They really cared for each other despite those lies (no don't think too negatively.. they're really enjoying playing with each other with those small little acts. haha)  One finally seeing what truly matters most to her and whom she really love, and being very happy about this.. The other lying in the coffin, doing what he did while he was alive because he wanted to give her hope.. She didn't know he was dead; he would never ever find out that he had indeed given her the hopes.. It's another work by Du Qi Feng. i think his personal style is very obvious (alongside with the cast he usually works with) I'm personally rather intrigued by his style though I wouldn't say I like it. I don't really know if the way he films has a special meanign to it.. usually represented by a frozen moment in time. To bring out the character's emotion perhaps? Oh wells.. But definitely a director that i noticed... Saturday, July 04, 2009 @ 10:13 PM
Nice.. Or not? I think there are different degrees of "nice-ness" you can find in people.
then again, define "nice". It's such a vague and hollow word. N-I-C-E. Makes me wonder why words like "banana" ain't spelt as "danana or nanana" in the first place. o.o @ 10:06 PM
Silence VS saying too much Read a magazine article about "Life before Death". There were some stories of people who were diagnosed with cancers, and others whose relatives have passed away. And it sorts of point out how difficult it is to say the right things at the right time. I think it's really true.. When things get serious, it's really a headache how to find the appropriate things to say in response to what others are experiencing. It's an invaluable innate ability to have, good skill to learn, but difficult to acquire. It points out that usually people end up saying those cliche words that sounds hollow and have no real purpose at all. Even though they might have some truths in them and could possibly be encouraging, yet it ain't exactly what those griefing needs or wants to hear. I think it's very true.. but like what the article points out, with IT and technology, it's difficult to say nothing. eg. when you recieve a call/sms/email, you can't possibly ignore it rite? It's different if the person told you face to face, cuz you can give him/her the silence and the listening ear that he/she needs. But to remain silent on the other side of the computer/phone is akin to ignoring their plight.. Or at least it seems to be.. Really.. sometimes wad they need is the silence and peace. A shoulder to lie on and a pair of listening ear.. We really need to be there for them, not in words but in person. If you are able to find that friend who knows when to give you the silence, congrats! The rest of us, let's learn the power of silence.. Wednesday, July 01, 2009 @ 5:15 PM
irritated lol actually im quite irritated with myself now.. been reading tons of forum posts about Harper's Island for the past few days.. And i think it's pretty useless in the sense that there's all sorts of theories flying around. Basically i tend to scroll down briefly or simply dismiss those theories. aka im wasting time; reading alot of stuff but actually lacking in quality. I think the best thing to do is to re-watch the videos again! :) Find my own clues to support my case.. lol it's funny how i will 1) when i see random people guessing my killer, i wil go "is it really that obvious?" and hence doubt my own deduction 2) when i see other theories, i wil just think "this cant be it". and i just slept after having my lunch :`( i can imagine myself being unable to sleep tonight :(( my lifestyle just has to improve =X so irritating when i cant sleep every night :X |
