Having accepted the tasks of both editing the Pfingo video as well as post-production for the latest episode of 65bits, I found my circumstances suddenly spiralling severely out of control. I was torn between putting these two episodes online as soon as possible, and satisfying my parents' demands to study more. Of course, there wasn't really anything to study, but even I …
The finals of SIM Student Week happened just last Friday(I think that's the event la). Someone or the other set up a really small Cage and organized multiple mini sports tournaments. Certainly our Buffalo soccer team joined the soccer league. Their performance was nothing short of amazing. They as a team dwarved all the other teams big time with scores like 5-2 not at all …
I'd actually like to know the answer, but I'm not about to ask the poor girl I dropped it on. I accidentally dropped it on.I was at SIM's 5th level, over looking the activities at the Atrium on level 2. We, meaning Hans Graham and me, musicians audiophiles or otherwise just people who are fussy with sound, were extremely irritated by the atrocious sound coming from the …
I'm not sleepy. RIPIRIP stands for Rest In Peace In Really Intense Pain.No of course you can't do that. But that's my point.My Zen Micro died on me.Perhaps it was rashness on my part. You know how rash actions sometimes end up in murder or rape? (If you found this post by searching for "purple rape" or something, get lost. Now.)I wanted to load a new album I acquired into the …
Reading jayden's blog post brought to my attention these Temasek Polytechnic Communication and Media Management (TPCMM) students who filmed the following lipdub of Umbrella.Apart from being professional about it, being sexy and all that, I was downright impressed at their continuous-shot concept. It looks like there were final three takes, from the jerks in the screen. …
Ever were so bored you started exploring weird things? Thanks to that, I bring you today's revelation against banks and their loaning antics.I was on bus 74 when I saw the the print ad for StanChart's... something or the other. Smack in the centre of the poster was 6.50%p.a.*. Notice that asterix there?Having been oft warned by my parents (mostly mother) of unscrupulous bank …
Sometime ago, I quarreled with a friend who used to be very dear to me. In patching up, he established in no uncertain terms that whatever he meant to me, I wasn't part of his intimate circle. Now you can imagine how much that hurt me. But it wasn't his fault. In fact it was mine. Nevertheless, nowadays, I find my cowardly self seating myself away from him, avoiding eye …
The review unit for the new Creative Zen was just delivered at my house this afternoon, but I passed it on to Daniel barely an hour after I got home from school so that he could play around with it in camp. In this short span of time, I uploaded some songs and a couple of pictures and movies to the player. Not that I needed to worry if I didn't... the player was already …

K. Time to do you guys some good, before I go to bed and prepare for a nong nong day tomorrow.I saw this post from Bearer of Good News, and he saw it from this or that site. Links are all on his post, if backtracking is your thing.In the post Andy wrote about this supposedly perfect equalizer setting that would be a one stop power boost to your music. Looking at the original …
What's wrong with my Nokia phone?The Nokia 6280 is a fantastic phone. I will vouch for that. It has almost everything a techie needs, save for WiFi. And honestly with its comparatively small screen and age (+-2 years old), I find that exclusion reasonable. However it also holds a notorious reputation of having many firmware issues. This time, the phone turned off by itself, …
Today is the second consecutive day I have been prevented from getting my serviced Nokia phone back into my tender loving hands.Yesterday someone from the Suntec service centre where I'd sent in my phone called to inform me the phone was ready for collection. I rushed down after a late class and dinner, to find that they had closed an hour earlier. CLOSING AT 8? What the hell …
And Il Maestro finds his peace.Perhaps it's selfish of me, as is the rest of the opera world mourning for the one tenor everyone knew. It was the same with Pope John Paul II, Mother Teresa, etc. Millions weeping for the world's loss of this fine person. If the world still needed them, I don't think they would have passed on.Nevertheless I could not help but shed tears as I …
Call me sheltered, call me innocent. Yesterday was the first time I've walked into an ICU unit. As a visitor. Though I hope I don't have to even walk in to visit someone again, and sure as hell pray I'm not lying on one of the beds.It was my aunt. Stubborn by nature, she insisted on making her annual pilgrimage to China despite having some respiratory conditions. Even as a …
Hot damn.I spent a hundred in two days.This is terrible. Or maybe it's not, considering that I blew 70+ bucks just going to town.The thing is this, I could well afford such spending. My buffer cash could spring me 3 storeys high.Until this.Looks like we've got a history lesson to take.So we were told sometime back by GT CEO Chris that Creative, the Creative, would be holding …
I don't usually agree with Xiaxue, especially after the whole '7 most disgusting bloggers' affair. But I was brought to this post of hers by Pingster pubed (public education you dirty bastard).It never occured to me that it may well be another publicity stunt by her until I read comments from the other Pingsters on pubed's post. Well if it is, I'm ashamed of myself for …
Too lazy too type properly.Nawww of course not.But I tell you what I was too lazy to do. I was too lazy to sit up and listen, this second half of the semester, Summer(II).After my glorious victory in The Battle of Summer(I), I somehow switched off in Summer(II). I attribute it to my lecturers. Excuses? Maybe... But lemme be clear. Attribute does not equate blame. I don't …
You've seen the print ads, now behold! A Ping.sg video commerciallll!!!I took quite a few liberties from the original specifications, cos it's a different medium after all.Now, how many follow-ups will this one generate...? :)Oh by the way, there's no need to turn the volume up. It does get loud later. If you have (good) a subwoofer, crank it up a notch or two. :DOnline …
These both happened yesterday.After hearing about one of my coursemates doing the Umbrella dance, I went to check out the wacky footage myself. And subsequently I found the accursed "ella...ella" part playing on constant loop in my poor head. Lock a prisoner-of-war in a room and play this on 5.1 speakers. 5 hours later he'll probably submit a typed report of all the top …
Been so caught up in the ping.sg advertisement craze that I nearly forgot about this.On... let's see when this was... On Wednesday, my borrowed PSP brought me to the end of the world.And, after I found myself there, I calmly made my way back to civilization. Without the PSP. Eh? Eh? How's that for explorer's blood?But before I moved off for the urban jungle, the citizen …
