Noowwww That The Looooveeee is Gooooone



Lovin' the rockin' beat! And the part when all the characters start to get their groove on...

Fat guy at 2:03 headbanging is also made of LOL. Also, drum-crazy Grandma comes a close second in awesome-scale.

Thinking about getting a netbook.

After much contemplation and thought, I think it would be beneficial if I were to buy a netbook. Aside from freeing me up from the confines of my room when I study (meaning I can finally study in the library with other people and not by my lonesome self), having a netbooks means no more need to print lecture notes.

Hence, introducing my target: The MSI Wind U100 Plus.


*drool*

It's small, it looks gorgeous, and it has quite decent specs for a netbook (Intel® Atom N280 1.66G, 2GB DDR2 RAM, 160gb HDD). A comfortable 10" screen and a really ergonomic keyboard design also makes for a major plus point.


Big, comfortable keys. I liikke.

Apparently netbooks.com.sg is retailing it for $589, throwing on an optional slim portable DVD-RW drive for $88 brings the sum total to $677. Not -that- expensive...


Desire.

Unfortunately, I think it'll be a while before I can afford it. Darn. Any kind souls out there who want to/can afford to float me a loan? Will pay back in instalments. =D

just heard about this new mmo-beat-'em-up

Dungeon Fighter Online is a previously korean/japanese MMO that got it's english port recently. It's completely free-to-play.



Looks pretty old-school... but looks quite fun! Graphics are pretty cool for a 2d beat-em-up. Reminds me of good old cooperative Super Nintendo and Arcade beat-em-ups like STREETS OF RAGE, DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS - SHADOW OVER MYSTARA, BATTLETOADS etc.

I think the core gameplay might get old after a while though... pressing buttons to execute attacks and beat things up... But I think it looks better then maplestory...

Actual gameplay:



I love 2:12 when the boss battle music starts up.

five minutes of drifting.

1.20am, working on paper, and the opening chords of Air Supply's "All out of Love" strike up on iTunes.

I'm lying alone with my head on the phone

1.21am, and already I'm nostalgic.

It would make me believe what tomorrow could bring

1.22am, and I visit the old blog You had. You never told anyone about it. I never told You I knew.

And what would you say if I called on you now

1.23am, I catch a glimpse of the smiling You. Your smile. It always made me feel special, even when it didn't mean anything. And I remember it was so rare that You smiled, how cold You were! But that was exactly what caught my heart on strings, Your aloof disdain... next to Your warming smile. I always thought You were beautiful, regardless of what others may have thought. And now, yes, You have changed. But You are still the same beautiful You. Same same but different.

I can't be too late to say that...

1.24am, and I close the tab. You have a new blog now, but I don't open it. I'm not a stalker jealously following the life of a former ex. You are only an "if only", a "maybe", had I the guts to speak up, to tell You how I felt. Well -

...I was so wrong.

1.25am, I go back to my paper. And then "Maybe" by The Inkspots starts up...

Maybe
You'll think of me
When you are all alone

Maybe
The one who is waiting for you
Will prove untrue, then what will you do

Maybe
You'll sit and sigh
Wishing that I were near

Then maybe
You'll ask me to come back again
And maybe I'll say "Maybe"...

-The Ink Spots

5 letters, 2 syllables, 1 word.
My lasting 'Maybe'. That's what You are.

IT'S... IT'S ALIVE!!!

It's recess week! An update!

I am pretty screwed. Hahaha. But that's okay. I have no future anyway. SMILE!

I don't like ranting about stuff because I think it's pointless. Just know that my workload is pretty insane and I keep getting distracted.

I can't absorb anything either haha.

Yay!

There's something inside that feels a bit empty.
But I don't know what.
Sometimes I believe I don't know anything.
23 years later, I'm still a kid who doesn't understand the world.
And I know that's true.

But when I look at couples (and not so couples) who fight, who argue, who bitch at each other even though they think or they know they can't really exist with each other, I don't know what to think. Silly? Are relationships really this annoying to handle? Should I be glad to not have to think about this?



Everyone seems to have somebody.
If not somebody they have, then somebody they want...
Should I be looking for that somebody?
I wonder how long it'll stay this way for me.

::EPIC GUITAR SOLO IN THE DESERT::

And now, something completely different.

Mm. I wonder what kind of qualifications are needed to be a wedding planner.
