I have no life?

someone said I have no life. I dislike shopping, I dun watch TV and I just coop myself in my room. That comment disturbed me for a few days. :/
Does my life really suck?

I hate shopping becos very little is done with so much walking around. I dun watch TV becos I have better shows in my lappy. I coop myself in my room becos my room has everything I need. :)

Just yesterday after dota, bandicoot told me that he missed the life of studying full time - got so much more free time and can do watever he want. (He is working and studying part time now)
Yeah he is right. I am leading my life the way I like. When I feel like sleeping I sleep. When I feel like playing game I play. When I dun feel like going to class I skip it. I do watever I want anytime.

When I dun get to live the way I like, then my life suck.

am I the only one who hates chinese new year? All these fake bai nians; if want to get together, can do so anytime, and not come together only during chinese new year. All these false front that I need to put on, makes me sick. -_-
As planned, I stayed at home during chinese new year's eve, chinese new year, and the 2nd day.
Prince of Tennis and my comfortable bed helped me to pass the dreaded days.

I wanted to eat hebe hiam but my mum didn't buy any this year. Mac brought me some made by his mum. Wow it's delicious. Very crunchy and not too spicy. With nice hebe hiam, I dun mind going to ur house to bai nian. LOLs

GOOOOOD DEAL

IBM mock is over so how is it? It sucks. I did only 2 qns out of . Till the day before the exams, i only studied chapter 1.3. I tried to mug chapter 3.1 for a few hours before the exam but it didn't help much. i tried to study chapter 7 in the bus but no qn on that topic came out. -_- The only consolation i could get was that top student ghim hong also did only 2 qn. It's damn selfish to think in this way, but it's aways comforting to know that u're not alone right? somemore he is the top student u know! I wish him all the best for the real exams too.

went out with Mr M for marvelous yesterday.
Thanks to his lousy starhub phone with super lousy reception, I didn't really catch the point that he brought foward the hair cut appointment to 12. I thought it was at 1.30.
and ALMOST for the first time I thought I WAS EARLY when I left my house at 12 :/ Very paiseh to let u wait 1 hr for me leh yip. amazing that u can always entertain urself with newspapers and more newspapers. heeeeeee

The hair cut was terrible. I dunno whether the scissors was blunt or wat. It kept pulling my hair. I think i've lost countless strands during that hair cut. I told the gay hair dresser and he just smiled. Not sure if he understand wat I was saying. The end result quite ok la, I will say 6.5-7/10

We headed to queensway, Yip bought a garfield-coloured kappa shoe and I bought myself a chinup bar and training gloves. When I went into the shop, the guy kept trying to close the deal quickly. the chinup bar cost $29 and the gloves cost $44. I'm ok with the price of the chinup bar but I didn't want the gloves becos it's too costly. Furthermore I haven't check out the price of the gloves at other shops. He kept reducing the price of the gloves and that made me damn suspicious.
1.) First he told me he'll sell it to me at 40. I told him I don't want it. $40 for a gloves is way too much.
2.) He asked me wat's my budget and I told him $20. Then he say 'ok this price for u only', punched a few times on the calculator and showed me $35. I tell him I don't want it.
3.) Then he told me that he would charge me $62 for both the chin up bar and the gloves. that would be $33 for the gloves. I asked him if he can make it $60
4.) He consulted his friend and agreed.
Since he agreed I couldn't back down on my words also, so I bought both items at $60.
I quickly went to all the other shops to check out the price of the gloves and all of them are selling it for around $42. maybe it's a norm that the shops would sell it cheaper than wat's stated on the price tag, so I think $35 should be the normal price and maybe the further discount is on the chinup bar. Still I feel quite shiok to pull off such a good deal.

Mounted the bar just outside my room. It didn't require fixing screws to the wall so my father didn't complain. Can't help but feel enthusiastic. I did quite a few sets of chin ups. As to how many was done, shall not be posted here so that Mr M will not be demoralised for his IPPT training. :D For the gloves, though I got it cheap, it wasn't very good. Firstly the grip isn't as good as my old pair that i bought quite a long time back for army use. secondly, I sweated in my gloves. HEARTACHE. $30 gloves wo bu she de yong.

Squandered my days away

Quite pissed off with myself.
After studying for the econs test on tues, I literally studied no more.
Not sure wat I did on wed after soci class.
Wanted to really study ibm today but turns out to be a study-less day.
3 more days to IBM. Did I mention that I've never done any ibm assignment before and have never read the notes before.
Instead of moaning and sulking here I SHALL put it right.. RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW.
Off to study IBM till 6am >_<

Wat to do with the money?

I am marvin's financial consultant, but sometimes, I have to plan for myself also.
$560 have to last me for 4 months.

hp & internet bills $80/month
transport $50/month

so the fixed costs sum up to $130/month
4 months would be $520

that leaves me with $40 to spend for 4 months on other stuffs including food.
omg that is $10/month

broke as usual -_-

Selling my sharp 903


1 user from yahoo sms-ed me and wanted to buy it at $558. I agreed.
There goes my 3.2mega pixels camera phone. The happiest will of course be marvin cos I can't send him photos of my body anymore. >_<

Dealing later at 7pm. So what phone will I be using?

dunno nokia wat model also. My father changed his phone so this phone is lying around unused.
When u're broke u have no choice.

Do they work or do they not?

OMG prelims mock exams are just round the coner, and I haven't really prepare.
I still have not studied FOSV, matrices and sequences for math, and I am absolutely dead for IBM. Nv once do the assignment and neither have I been reading up. This totally pales in comparison to top scorer Ghim hong. He topped the IBM class 3 times with assignments which he 'anyhow do'.

Ok in an attempt to make my study time more efficient, I came up with a few plans. Do they work?

1. Study with techno music.

I sorely miss techno. I tuned in to WKRZ and it totally sucks. no more euro dance is being played on that station. No choice have to search in shoutcast. then eh!, I found this station, technobasefm, damn shiok! The only downside is that the DJ speaks german. but who cares! The music on that station rocks totally. Blasted my radio for few days while studying.

Does it work?
yes! lol. Listen already damn high and dun feel sleepy at all! better than 933 that is playing more and more chinese new year songs.


2. Drinking from my army waterbag :)

While studying I hate to be distracted, but I can't help but feel thirsty. So bo bian, I filled up my waterbag and drank from there.

Does it work
NO. I dunno y with the waterbag, I tend to drink quite a lot and still i feel thirsty. Ended up drinking too much and my bladder and visits to the toilet became my greatest distraction. -_-

3. Dota as best way to relax
Tried playing dota yesterday with marvin, mac, ghim hong and yong bin for some light entertainment.


Does it work
NO. Yip hosted the first game and it was so laggy. 1 the opposition (brown colour) left after Mac and I him at the river. More followed and we had to 'remake' the game. I hosted the 2nd game, and 1 of the opposition lagged out early in the game. no choice have to recreate. 3rd game was quite ok untill someone quitted on purpose. the rest of his teammates joined in.
so 2 hrs wasted and not even a single game played. What is suppositly entertainment, turns out to be frustration. >_<
