A lightsaber glow is easy to do, it's the fitting it into the specific picture that sux-ass. If you find this picture oddly familiar, yes, it is the original shot of my avatar. I selected a rectangular approximation of the blade portion (I'm total shit at magnetic-lasso) and made a layer to superimpose on the original image. After clearing away extra bits and pieces with …
Well my first ad was designed after Cris's. But DK got the ball rolling out of the box with his... his ad. So with nothing else to do while my aunt gets ready for work (she give me a... half a lift to school), I did another one. This one feels more like me.Naturally.The million-dollar question is what your reaction is when you get pinged. Scream shout froth kick... whatever! …
[Following chunk taken from Cris's blog. See the original post.]Try it out yourself!How about you trying to create a Ping.sg advertisement to attract more users?Your advertisement must meet these criterias:Size: 600 X 450 pixelsFont: Microsoft Sans Serif, 36, StrongFont Colour: WhitePhrase: Meet XXX. He/She just got Pinged. Have you?A Ping.sg logo must always be at the top …
Following Daniel's post, I predicted to him that the Ping.sg I know would start doing the same thing. True enough, Wishbone made known her thoughts of possibly doing such a thing.So I did mine.I'm sooo sooo sorry for the low res... the only object missing from my table was my phone, and well that's because I was holding it. That's my digicam, and even though its 2 megapixels, …
NTT raised this point the other day, after we had finished our weekly podcast (see sidebar for link). That he could not comment on my blog because for some reason or the other he did not register for a Blogger account, and I selected the Registered Users Only option.To block them out no more, I have decided to allow non-Blogger users to comment. Unfortunately, with the useful …
I couldn't bear to leave it behind. It was in desperate need of feeding, and I knew that the best lip-smacking milk that humans usually consume just don't cut it for kitties. Even doing the Neck Pinch couldn't keep it quiet for long...Whatever la. Words elude me now. The last thing I saw after I managed to bring myself to put it down and walk away was a cleaner saying "lai!", …
Right, so, we went to Geek Terminal on Tuesday to see the iPhone. Specifically, the iPhone that Paddy Tan of BAK2u brought in to develop his anti-theft software. Here are some reviews or mentions of it by Kevin, NTT, and Kai Yi.Today, after Daniel passed me the DVR, Kai Yi and I were to start editing the raw footage. Because of GT's blessed power strip, we didn't take as long …
I got the following video from the I Am Bored blog. If you need interesting stuff to put some color into your hopelessly dull place, be sure to subscribe to this blog. Fun crazy stupid funny stuff. All there. As for this video, we have to thank people like this man. For younger folks, it's 60 years of dance in 6 minutes. For older people, revision or nostalgia, take your …
Back in 2003 or 2004 when I was still in Victoria School, I found myself to be the butt of alot of jokes. As if it wasn't enough that I was plump and behaved in a somewhat weird, gay-ish fashion, my chemistry teacher became the catalyst to bring me into the screeching world of opera. And unabashedly I would sing to myself soprano pieces as in transit between classes, along …
An old series, but a fantastic one nevertheless. Catch all 6 episodes of the first season (British la, you know...), the Christmas special, and bloopers on Youtube from this user.I wonder though how the cast really feels. Some of the jokes can get quite mean. More importantly though, this series reflects how humans try to fit into society around them, often trying too hard to …
Hokay, as the more attentive on Ping.sg might have already noticed, I'm flooding my blog with new posts today. This is the seventh.7th.Like I told Daphne, this is what happens when you get lazy. About something you're... quite passionate about.Moving swiftly along :), today marked a milestone for me, as it did for the event I participated in. 65bits reaches its 30th episode …
The last and first time I saw FF7 was when I got it from Graham, and he obtained it in some super obscure format that he had to use a DOS program to convert to AVI. I'm sure it was in some Lossless format or something, but whatever it is the converting ruined whatever notion of quality the subbers thought of maintaining by ripping it in a format from Jupiter.This time …
I wonder how many eyes are rolling now and how many brains are yelling 'LAGGG!' silently, but Microsoft really surprised me with OneNote.Seems that it didn't come with my previous 2003 installations, or else I never bothered to install it, but I discovered it when I accidentally screen-captured a PDF page into OneNote 2007. At that time I just closed it off irritably, since I …
Old news, but then I can't remember the last time I was the first to post something up. I'm more reflective. And more lazy.So sometime around beginning or midweek (see la I forgot already) Ping.sg kept breaking down. Especially the shoutbox. I think we were unwittingly at fault la. When the shoutbox started lagging, we naturally felt threatened at the prospect of having to …
After my blazing trail of glory in Summer(I), I'm doing everything I can not to start skipping classes. Two China lecturers, what the heck?These courses are actually quite important lor... Mass Comm Theory and Public Relations. So I do want to slack but not like totally switch off man. That's suicide. Of course, that's what I say, but I'm not even attempting to listen in …
Was disappointing.Although I dunno whether to blame the storywriters or not, since they are quite obviously under major pressure not to churn out a script for an 8-hour movie. It's just too much to shove down to two hours. Given the fans who are watching it, and how it would give storywriters a chance to leave more stuff in that would help smoothen plot progression, I wonder …
So I went to watch it, last Saturday. It was all quite a rush before the show because I was serving in Children's Church that day and our debrief ended rather late. I rushed through my lunch at Marina Square foodcourt before we dashed down to the Esplanade (thank God it was just next to Marina). As it turned out we made it in excellent time.One of the types of humor that gets …
Mingle2 - Online DatingWhen people like DK and tstar get PG, I get a straight fucking R (oop there I go again. ;P)?Never mind. I take it as a compliment of my free expression.Ok no la seriously, this thing is silly. lol.
I was super late for the party, which was held at Geek Terminal. But as hem hem and haw haw said, I didn't miss much, since the blog awards were heyholalala~. Lol.Kevin theorized (because Theory IsTheReason after all) that bloggers were generally talkative on the keyboard, and deathly quiet IRL. Well not among the shoutbox regulars! It was fantastic meeting all the guys …
Met Ian today for some chillout and chat. It's great that he was regaling me with stories of people tapping helmets and then asking the sargeant 'Oh. Supposed to do head count ah?' Kinda makes me feel better and more relaxed about army.We wasted quite abit of time feeling our way around Marina Square, and asking around where Pizza Hut was when we just came from that section a …
