Swift sounds.

Will be quite busy this 2 days I suppose. I have a dinner and a wedding to attend.

Anyway, this post will be about promoting a singer I love the most right now. That's right, Taylor Swift!

She's going to launch her new album, Fearless, soon!

This is the album cover, she looks amazing.

This album is scheduled to release in US on November 11th. About a month and a half from now. I have already listened to the first single, Love Story, from GAC's (Great American Country) website. The song is very lovely, and she looks gorgeous in the music video.

Check out the video for her latest single, Love Story, as well as her other videos here!

New look.

Finally got my haircut. Much shorter and neater now. Have them colored dark brown together. I suppose it will be good, since there will be a wedding to attend this Saturday.

The process was so boring, 3 different....stuff, were applied on my hair. It felt so heavy, and I had to wait like an hour before moving on to wash them. And another 15 minutes of treatment after that too, I should've brought my PSP there, freaking bored.

Costed RM180 to get my hair done, wow, 1st time I spent so much on my hair, although it's not my money. Given a choice I'd rather add another 100 to buy the Razer Piranha.

Sorry, no pictures of my new hair, there aren't any cameras around, my phone camera got busted.

Anyway, here's a nice song. Watch it!



Can anyone tell me the name of this song? I've been looking for it and I still cant find it. If anyone can download the mp3 for me it will be much appreciated.

Time for a change?

Went to Times Square with a bunch of friends, old and new, bound by the same interest: Team Fortress 2.

Since my current team is falling apart, I'm on the verge of deciding my future. So far I have remained, as I am reluctant to leave the young and inexperienced behind, and I am giving myself a week to decide.

Back to the outing, reached there at 11am and met Cyro (not real name), played some arcade while waited for the rest to arrive. When everyone is here, we went for lunch at McD's.

This is probably the one outing where we talk about game almost all the time. I could've sworn we sat at McD's for over an hour doing so. After that we went to Borders bookstore. One of them need to buy a book, but we ended up sitting on the floor of the comic's section and hung out there for over an hour too. Soon after, 2 of us had to leave, and we decide to hit the arcade 1 more time. Went home right afterwards.

I finally bought the balisong (butterfly knife) which I desire. It costed a little more than I expected, but it will be worth it. It has dual edge, but since one of them is blunt, figured I could still practice flipping it. Before any of you ask, I did not buy the knife to slit my own wrist, nor to kill anyone I hate. I just bought it for the sake of buying it. You can say it's a result of playing too much Spy in Team Fortress 2, which is also one of my best classes ^^.

Happy Birthday, and farewell.

Had a birthday bash for birthday girl, and former schoolmate Wai Kwan today, and together with a farewell dinner for Hai Meng, who will be leaving to further his studies in England.

Held at TGI Friday's at Pavilion KL. Me, Kah Chung, Hai Meng, Chee Hoe, Chuan Sheng, Loong Fatt, Yew Seng, Wei Peng, Kar Ee, Ker Pei, Shu Kim, Li Tyng, Wai Kwan and his boyfriend whom i forgot his name (Sorry) were there. Pretty much most of the old highschool gang were there. The rest were insignificant enough to make any difference.

Anyway, we all arrived at Friday's about 7pm, a few were late because of personal problems, but they still made it for the dinner. Pretty much a reunion, we all had a lot to talk about the whole time we were there.

After our stomachs were satisfied, we asked for the cake to be brought out. Birthday girl and Wai Kwan and Hai Meng were asked to stand on a chair to give their speech. While Wai Kwan did not have to do much, we decided to "torture" Hai Meng a little, since he decided to leave the rest of us. His face got splattered with whipped cream by Kah Chung, Chee Hoe, Chuan Sheng and Yew Seng and Shu Kim.

Took our pictures, and gave Wai Kwan and Hai Meng their gifts. We bought Hai Meng a whistle-keychain, and a cue ball. The cue ball has our signatures on it, and aptly named "Champion Ball". It will surely remind him of the gang back here while he is out there.

One of the best moments we had after apart for 3 years ofter our highschool graduation. We have all grown up, driving around, and some even have part time jobs to support their lives. Someday everyone will have their own career and family, but hey, no harm in going out once in a while for a cup of coffee eh? We are always bound by the unbreakable string of friendship called "St. John Ambulance Cadet, badge of 2005".

Another semester...

Finished my exam, finally I can breath a sigh of relieve, and concentrate on my path of professional gaming for a few weeks. This has all gone pretty smoothly, until a few minutes ago.

It was today's final paper, I really didn't know why I didn't notice it sooner. There's a question where we are supposed to write a slogan and a headline for a product, and it gives 25 points. I'm like, wow, 25 points just for headline and slogan? Then, I cracked my head thinking of the best slogan and headline possible.

I just found out that apparently, we are also supposed to write a body copy along with the headline and slogan, which as left a lot of my course mates in chaos. Obviously all of us are very surprised at how much a slogan and headline can give. Now, most of us are already complaining about the loss of our points, just because of the slight mistake in the question paper. What now?

Can't do anything much, as the answers are already submitted. Most of my course mates are very unsatisfied about this. I'm a victim just like them, so I know how they feel. There's nothing we can do now can we? We should issue an official complaint to the college, as it is very unfair for us to lose so many points which could determine our final results just because of a slight mistake.

I believe I'm right, not a damn soul can change me

Wow, first exam subject of Media Planning. Wasn't as hard as expected, as what my lecturer told us to study on, its exactly whats in the exam paper. I am so thankful to myself for contacting m3n last night and ask for tip about this. Thanks m3n ^^

Another thing is, I got pissed off, again, through the Internet. All I did was try to maintain order and did what I had to do, and people went all emotional and I get the blame. Fine, maybe what I did wasn't the best choice, but I don't see anyone doing anything about it. I took matters into my own hands, and I have a good reason to do it.

Tomorrow's exam will be English Language, which I have the utmost confidence on.

My brother is back from the Middle East, and I will get my new rig from him this coming Sunday along with the Razer Piranha Gaming Communicator, and probably Razer Goliathus Control edition and some new games along with them.

I have this feeling in my chest again, and it's longing to be released in full force. I can't punch my monitor now can I?

Here are some lessons:

1)Never let your emotions take over your actions.
2)Never let your feelings affect your performances.
3)Always believe and have faith in what you think is right, regardless of what people say.

Back from Bukit Merah

Well I'm back from Bukit Merah trip. It wasn't that good, wasn't that bad either. It was because of my crazy friends that made the most out of the trip. They improvised from what could be a boring trip, to an enjoyable one.

First off, lemme talk about the downfalls of this trip. One of them was one of my friends couldn't make it because of personal problems. And then, we did not get return transportation because they don't sell it, so we decided to get it once we get there. Then, one of my friends MUST reach KL by Monday as he as exam the following day, and ironically, all the return tickets for Monday is sold out as it was a holiday so the people on vacation chose to return home on that day itself. Out of choice, we decided to return on Sunday midnight.

The best fun thing during the trip is totally the first night we're there. We played a game of Blackjack, but instead of gambling money, we decided that losers are to prank call a friend of ours. I was the lucky survivor and did not have to do it. 5 of them had to, and it was helluva fun time.

On the 2nd day, we went to the Orang Utan Island, the EcoPark and the Water Park. The first 2 was a little disappointing, as there isn't much to see, but the water park made up for it. Although it was a replication of Sunway Lagoon, we had fun playing in the water.

We departed home that night, although it's pretty tiring, we enjoyed ourselves. One of them will be leaving soon, and we will be having a dinner party with him soon. This will be the final dinner party with him, and we decided to hit it big at TGI Fridays, prepare to spend a lot for food again Allen.

Anyway, I am still deciding if I should get the Razer Piranha Gaming Communicator for my new rig. I thought of exchanging it with a Goliathus Gaming Mousepad, but I just remembered that the old headset is faulty and should break soon. Some bad reviews from my friends also demotivated me, but I really want to complete my gaming peripherals collection for my new gaming rig. Puzzled again.
