3 more days...n interesting facts =D

thats my countdown meter to my next paper. haiz but damn sian. since the weather suddenly started to be less windy n much hotter, i start to fall aslp agn. actually, i see a trend. the day aft i go outta my hse, the next few days ill be slping =.= as in, like most of the day is spent on slping. waliew todae woke at 1030 sleepily take a shower to freshen up then ate my breakfast then tried to read computing. 1230 boom knockout. woke at 230. WTH IS WRONG WITH ME?! n i still feel like slping. then my last resort wld have to be to on the com. n that leads to mi not just listenin to music but procrastinating. so that its no diff frm slping. except mebe slping is actually betta since i do get some beauty slp~

and talking abt beauty sleep, YAY haha my skin condition is improving!! not that it was THAT bad b4 or wad. but while working during hols, must be too stressed by ppl at work or wad got alot of pimples liddat n once they start, they dun normally get well, cuz i scratch them. i noe. i shldnt. now i think shld be cuz of slp, since the "break" for exams started, the redness start to clear. but duno why still got the pokpoks like my pores seriously duno when got enlarged and they dun seem to be getting smaller T^T HOW?!

ok anw, i link n link n i found this! damn interesting. mebe i suagu or wad, din noe it b4 but yea still find it cool http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_separation
six degrees of separation wah if u cld really create this human web thingy and prove this theory right, might just some nobel prize, duno for wad tho XD just goes to show how connected this whole world is i guess. haha when i was wuliao-chatting with husky n started talking abt time-travel machines and aliens controlling the earthlings, we got consider that if there was indeed a time-travel machine. it'll be damn hard to just change ur own past/future w/o affecting others, haha just like one of my fav movies "Back to the future" shows.

n found out that u noe those electronic devices thingy that asks u to ask somehting then u press a button n they come up with some answer? din realise it was like taken frm a ball thats supposedly called a "Magic Meatball" or sth liddat. n the inventor is a son of a clairvoyant. spelling correct? anw, duno how genes help in u inventing something that actually works though. but hor fortune telling kinda stuff are just intriguing. its not a study or wad either but ppl are acutally just guessing rite? why do we believe in these ppl? esp if they look very eerie and creepy while telling u ur fortune. =.= think its just our lack of confidence in ourselves and blah. wanna see if can change ourfuture or sth. but in the end, it might just be like ECONS. a self-fulfilling prophecy. haiz.

mi being suagu agn. im easily amazed man =.= din realise theres this website called 4chan. so jap rite. but its english based de. copying some jap site called 2chan. anonymous ppl can post stuff and all that. n they were responsible for most of the in/famous viral stuff!!!
RICKROLLING was by them. haha stoopid man...but the song is okok haha but the person and the voice TOTALLY dun match =.=
CHOCOLATE RAIN was by them too. (for those who duno wad this is, vid is below. haha first intro-ed to this by my colleagues, they stoopid la haha got alot weird videos too.)
PEDOBEAR too! duno where i heard of this b4 though. hmm allkpop? but dun really noe the origins or when its used.
anw 4chan, siao read on wiki the guy who started it all, now 21, is in $20,000 debt since Feb 2009. ok plus now recession, poor him. n somehow i expected a jap-american. no leh that "administrator" is an angmoh O.O
on wiki, abt 4chan, "further proof as well of the Social impact of the YouTube phenomenon that creativity is everywhere and new media is less accessible"

u noe got all those singlish. konglish. i nvr realise they got chinglish too. just took it all as engrish. n wiki actually shows a result for engrish. is it really an official word? O.o n yea i realised that my speaking is just totally warped T^T tried conversing in burmese thru the phone last nite with my mum's fren's son n HE DIDNT UNDERSTAND ME!!! "eh u can talk to mi in english" was his reply. kanasai. is it THAT bad? weird thing is, the auntie(his mother) understands =.= n i realise that i sorta use the english format of speaking/writing for my burmese too. so the sentence structure is a bit weird and all. so i think native speakers wun get wad im trying to say at first hearing(?), they need to allow time for stunnedness n thinking n jumbling the words back into the correct sentence structure b4 they get it T.T ok fine, i shld brush up on my burmese during the hols first b4 i embark on learning another language rite.

n the chocolate rain vid as promised =D he looks like michael jackson =.=


ohya sidenote, yuan lai nigahiga surpassed fred on no. of subscribers just this 20 august 2009 O.o
but anw fred broke the record first haha of hitting one million. im a fan of fred!! just watched the nigahiga vid on asian dramas' de rant. haah true all those stuff he said. but like more typical of korean drama. not jap ones i guess. ppl dun really die too much, do they? ok unless talking abt 1 litre of tears or koizora that kinda erm they're supposed to be true stories rite. aiya life is abit life AND death marh...wad u expect...

ok off to zoom! not boomz mind u. zoom was created by someone else longer ago. if im not wrong it was "zoom". shit my memory is failing mi. nid to store space for 2 more papers. chiong ah~ omo spent lik 50mins typing this. ok this shld be the longest post now haha cuz no pics somemore =D woots!

random rant abt 96.3fm

waliew stop cutting off my songs can!! previously i had two fav songs cut at the middle parts T^T "Tell it to my heart" and "Time to Love" ARGHS n todae was SNSD's "Etude" but heng it was only near the intro n cuz got the gradual softening of the music, their voices haven even really started anw.
tonite is soshi nite!!! they played older songs like INTW, Honey n then they got to the newer Etude and got cut off.
tonite totally proved my theory that 96.3fm only plays pop songs aft 9.30 liddat WRONG ahha. cuz they kept playing the famous idol grp songs tonite woots. haha n hor ive heard 4minute's "Hot Issue" for duno how many times that its sorta getting on my nerves. not tat it wasnt already =.= cuz of Hyunah's totally high-pitched rapping here. she sounds much better when at a lower pitch =)
got my korean notes today! frm senior. im sorta freaking out cuz obvs, i duno alot of words yet n when i see the notes. just stunned cuz all in korean. then realise at the back got abit english. i think mebe its like my senior din take down any notes in english or wad. i even saw jap scribblings at one page can O.O mebe she used jap to translate her korean. WTH hahaha i shld write burmese. just that i duno how to =.= im a failure man. gonna try multitasking learning two lang this hol! duno if can handle it given my lack of time due to work and my relatives coming over agn. but tis time they staying for a week only, n i suspect its gonna be my busy week at work. duno whether can bring them ard leh~

Orchard Central trip no. 2

Yay ok here's second part. but carn transfer all the photos leh. duno wad went wrong...carn see the LOOOONNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGG escalators T^T

pics all taken erm last last thurs i tink.

taken while on the escalator i think. can see how tall it goes...this is not the highest yet wor...can see the rooftop of centrepoint

look at the cool ceiling~ somewhere near the Ramp i tink. lvl i forgot wad =.= why did they come up with weird names anw. mebe they waiting for OC to get hot, then ppl will use those as tags for the lvl nos.

Anw, went to the korean bbq restaurant called Nolboo Hangari Galbi to eat, like i mentioned prev. we asked the waiter/manager what he recommends cuz the menu erm..it was all raw meat. =.= how do i tell if its nice. im not a wild animal =.= he NICELY recommended one that was like $69 besides that one that he recommended, we ordered one plate of plain seafood fried rice. n the service charge and GST end up make us chalk up a $100+ bill. the thing he recommended was some mixed platter, which as he says since its our first time and stuff, shld try abit of everything (actually i think he meant, since its ur first time, mebe we shld milk ur wallets dry first then next time whether u come back or not is no prob :) sweet guy =.=) it contained beef, chicken, prawns, sausages(i have no idea how much this contributed to the price tag >.< ), pork ribs(which my parents complained were basically RIBS n no meat at all), pork belly strips(that was just the OIL) and corn(i have no idea how much this contributed to the $$ either). n came with it the salads and stuff (these were compliementary for all bbqed meals i think). they shld give us instructions i suspect that its like supposed to wrap the meat in the plain washed lettuce provided to eat like how i saw the lil cartoons eating duno wad in my koreasparkling widget on my desktop, cuz like near the end, my dad started to eat liddat ahha duno where he got that idea. then i tot EHHH ok mebe seriosuly to eat liddat. but the meat running out le. T^T ok went to look at the pics i cldnt upload. the mixed platter is called "Assorted Meat and Seafood Sampler" $69 for 900g confirm. heng ah i realise. he din ask us to order the one below it in the menu. "Assorted Fresh Beef Sampler" $79 for 470g only phew~

Cutlery set. look at that green plate. look like for eating nasi lemak rite...

all the appetisers, salads...they have like diff types of kimchi (?) not sure if all are kimchi. but they tasted differently. some more sweet, some more sour. spicy wise, dun use mi as a meter. ohya n i liked that sauce beside the cup. sweet sweet de nice for dipping with the bbqed meat.

ok of all the sucky stuff, one stood out, damn nice. i recommend man. its available as a stand-alone as well, nearer the front of the menu, so no nid to buy the platter and waste money. i rmb asking the waiter the 200g was like how many servings, he said for like one person only. it was ard $28 that 200g, pork lai de. then he pointed to that EXPENSIVE $69, 900g platter O.o ok so the dish is........*drumroll* i dun exactly rmb the name haha and WAHHHHHH~ my pic of the menu din have its name!! but i think it was beef. n i went to google abit yea got positive reviews wor ahah of the beef too. its marinate is SHIOK sia HEAVENLY de nice~ i dun rmb the taste in my mouth since its been weeks but i rmb it to have a very nice smell (cuz of it being bbqed and all i guess) n it was sweet but not so sweet. n that kinda not raw but erm grassy taste (?) of the beef is covered perfectly. the official website says that they used lik combi of apples and pears and 20 kinds of ingredients and store for 24 hrs. wow. no wonder the price >.<

ohya for those who dun take beef or like mi, dun wan seafood, the waiter said can ask them to reduce some stuff frm ur mixed platter(if ure ordering that, that is) n add more of the stuff u like. but obvs u carn say i wan nth but beef =.= most prob ur 900g will reduce to lik 450g WAHAHAHAHAHA

the dessert. erm red bean was weird. n damn sweet. not a fan. n its mostly ice shavings anw, ice kachang is better. ohya n this hor, is not buy de. its complimentary

ambience wise, not very korean. except for two things:

1) the girl at the front wearing a pseudo-hanbok. it din look very thick.

2) the songs they were playing!!! confirm not frm kcooltime de. cuz no announcement "u're listening to non-stop korean pop music, only on 96.3fm" haha my god i actually rmbed wad that pre-recorded voice alwaes says =.=

anw, the shop keeper or whoeva chose that song list is a 2NE1 fanboy man. heard quite a few songs frm them. was quite thankful there was no "nobody" woots~ after school was oso played twice liddat i tink. got SNSD, brown eyed girls n hmm i dun really rmb le. but got those not really idol grp de songs as well. i tink shld be the real shopkeeper real korean lai de n he chose de songs. he appeared like ard the time we were gonna leave. he looked korean at least. eyes small small de. ohya n my parents counted and said there were 4 burmese guys in the kitchen working + the one girl that was serving us oso burmese lai de. O.o my third lang will come in handy in the near future le. singapore ah seriously, rdy to be overtaken by foreigners =.= anw, serve us = grilling/bbqing the meat in front of us. they have some exhaust pipe to suck up the smell cuz they were using real charcoal and stuff sure smoky if not for tt thing. took pic but carn transfer. got some vacuum thingy i think, i keep hearing the sound.

ohya space wise abit crammed the table. not that its small. but those appetisers u saw up there? placed in front of us since the beginning n like if dun eat fast enuff, once the bbq meat is getting ready, no space to put the meat le. mebe cuz of that plate of seafood fried rice too i guess.

After eating went to walk walk ard in OC. now still not a lot of ppl, so no prob its really like personal shopping space. not like JP when it newly renovated. my god the ppl there >.<

saw a shop called "Urban Write" its some stationery shop. but its stationery is cute and nice and some abit high-end. got take pic of the nicer stuff but some carn transfer. here are those i cld transfer. first, try to guess wad they are.

Soap? ahha no erasers..ok mebe im the only one who wld think its soap =.=

these look lik sweets rite!! but they're erasers too, as seen frm that small sign up there.

this one looks quite simple. can try making it at home. can guess wad it is?

TADA! its a cardholder!! in diff nice colors.but i duno how u put cards nearer to the ends. they'll be horizontal le

my phone went out of batt, so this one is taken using 2MP de. its a 50yr calendar. it works man!! n will be useful if the world doesnt end in 2012 =D

got instructions there. u just have to turn it to align some stuff and wa-la~

this one oso low quality pic. carn really tell but the puzzle is just small squares that u have to put tgt to form a pic la. the only cool thing is that they;re 3d kinda images and acc to the back of that metal thing, they say its harder leh. though i counted like ard 20 pieces only. mebe the 3d makes it harder? duno...

YAY FINALLY END OF LONGEST POST EVER!

Orchard Central trip no. 1

Yay! finally with some pics. din realise i have pics frm the first visit to OC.got change abit the second time i went like the first floor there they no longer have those boards. they replaced there somewhere but i dun rmb where i saw them the 2nd time i went >.< ohya went to the Central Thai restaurant on 8th or 7th floor to eat i forgot which floor. the food is ok not very spicy or wad plus mebe we din order the correct spicy ones ahha got salads not worth it one. for one plate of veggies so ex. we ordered 3 noodle stuff, one salad, one tom yum soup. got discount la ok not so bad the bill, not as bad as the korean bbq one, more on that next time. they were having some offer like one for one for some of the noodle dishes and other stuff. the ppl cooking r thai i think. the interior no thai style either. n their waitresses/waiters all oso not dressed thai feel at all. just classic restaurant black and white. n the waitress that they placed at the entrance of their restaurant, waliew her skirt is like so much shorter than other waitresses that i saw la. think they just trying to attract guys to go to the restaurant. while eating then i saw the other side there got ppl cooking bbq so decided go there the next time.

view of the lift. its seethru de. n so many floors man. goes to ard 12 i think. the escalator is more power man. but the pic of the escalator that cld break guinness world records is for the 2nd trip

can see a peek of the LOOOOONNNNNNNNNG escalators.

small small menu unclear one.

cover of menu

ok good luck to mi for phy test in a like less htan 12hrs..=.=

OMFG

ok this samsung contest...last time no one joined at all, then suddenly aft the starhub staff started to randomly post up their own parodies, so many ppl started joining...

http://apac.sec.samsung.com/samsungmobile/amoleddanceoff/videogallery.aspx

n theres this one:



ok first, the still on that video at the front looks like wheesung rite. the guy in the previous post =.= i initially tot they looked similar WAHAHAHH thats a disgrace to wheesung. haiz..anw this guy i rmb he oso got join a blogging contest frm samsung. for omnia II i think. forgot if he won, i think he did hmm...

anw, ok GAY GAY GAY. but totally shocked at 1:50 SPLITS. ok i carn do that. so im amazed and very appreciative of wad they did. n frm wad i see, they did the recording mostly/all in orchard. they went to orchard central!!! the same floor as Central Thai and Nolboo Hangari Korean BBQ restaurant where i went to eat YUM =D their choreo change until quite ok. n since they're all tall n lanky, it actually looks quite nice and organised. not just rdm stuff. so as much as its indeed really gay, u still gotta admit that they dance better than u do :) so im not bashing anyone here, pls note.

OC loves kpop

hah ok not really...still carn transfer the pictures of orchard central AND FOOD!!!

so talk abt the scenery outside OC that i din manage to take a pic anw, cuz my phone batt went out n my mum's 2mp is not enuff to capture the splendour.

anw, Orchard now has hanging lights something like in this video,


very meng4 huan4 hor...but its high up there so u carn really stand inside like wheesung did to bask n take nice pictures or some cool "MV". the colours only two i tink if i rmb correctly. white and blue or sth liddat. n the movement is down only. no up. realised htat wheesung likes those sticks too. he used them in two performances including this one. found the other perf while searching for this vid. the other perf had the sticks stuck in the wall at the back. mebe economy is bad, nid to reuse. save the earth! =D

random post

i went to orchard central ytd!!! second time going there...wanted to make a post with pics taken but i carn transfer files successfully frm my phone to another phone which is easier to transfer files to my com.....ok confusing. but anw, its a heck loadful work to transfer files frm my phone to my com so next time when i do succeed then ill make that post. for now, random stuff...

saw this: http://www.asiaone.com/News/Education/Story/A1Story20091102-177343.html
damn stoopid i pasted the link to quite a few people on9 n told everyone how biased NUS is ahha stoopid la read carefully, last para dun have anything abt how NUS plans to improve, cuz mebe in the first place they used a totally CARELESS mistake to talk abt. plus the "expert" making comments are by some NUS guy, who def must "protect" NUS since his cheque depends on it =.= n please la did u actually need to find some expert? can just grab an english tcher frm a like JC or sec sch who wld be more impartial? plus dun use just one example each and be more objective in reporting. i dun believe that that is the only mistake in the WHOLE of NUS? unless u tell mi that they dun print much flyers or wadsoeva. n anw, i only knew this word - freshmEn. nvr knew that there was a singular form for it, cuz we've been using the plural form mostly anw. so ok that was indeed an eye-opener. kudos "expert".

http://www.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne%2BNews/Singapore/Story/A1Story20091105-178136.html
another rdm news...nothing much to comment on the content, din read the whole thing carefully. just the title is enuff. ok when there are enuff foreigners, it will seriously becum a totally non-Singaporean place to live. n as u noe, they alwaes say "when in rome, do as the romans do". for what? to fit into social norms in that particular place, n when singapore is infiltrated with foreigners, soon it'll be the singaporeans who need to fit in. to wadeva culture becums the majority in the near future. anw, abt foreigners, there's more and more burmese man...ytd went to orchard central to eat at the korean bbq restaurant, i think most of the waiters were burmese omg haha really a large influx.

to continue with the randomness heres videos of two great songs by two great groups WHEE~~~
