Its 3.30am and I am still awake. My Computing paper is at 9am later on. Hmm.
Will I make it for the paper? Or will I oversleep and miss it, failing it immediately?
I wonder...

Heck. Exams aside. I just watched Silent Hill for the second time and I realized most part of it is based on Silent Hill 1, which I am playing on my PSP (and had just completed). I love the game. The psychological fear it evokes coupled with the awsome soundtracks (courtesy of Akira Yamaoka) makes it a perfect survival-horror game. I liked Resident Evil too but Silent Hill is simply mind-fucking and I find that to be most thrilling. I've always liked mind games... but I guess I am too stupid to conjure a decent one.

Silent Hill. I wonder if a place like this really exists. If it does, Japan will be a good place for it to be in with all its occultish background and creepy, faraway villages in the mountain where the villagers conduct fiendish rituals. Wait a sec. That would be the territory of Fatal Frame!

轰轰烈烈的失败一次吧!

There are some places in everyone's heart that will bring back that lovely sense of nostalgia. I felt it just now when I was studying, a total irrelevance; my revision has got nothing to do with those places and memories. But somehow, it just came into me.

Reminiscing about those good old days brings back a sensation which I can't put in words. It just feels pleasant and... stupid at the same time.

History can never be re-written. At least not before I invent the time machine. Even so, it just won't be the same again.

Obsessed with achieving absolute power.

I left the exam hall grinning to myself today, not because I am going to get an A. I am intrigued by my brain's ability to come up with seemingly logical extrapolations for questions which I am unsure of within the last 10 minutes of my paper. The human mind. Such an interesting entity.

Oh and it sucks to get a mental block during examinations!

OH MY GOD!!!!! WHY MUST IT BE HIM!!!! WHY DID HE GET TO PLAY SUCH A ABSOL-EFFING-FANTASTIC GAME!

WHY WHY WHY!

I ALSO WANT TO PLAY!

RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I WAN I WAN I WAN!




Ahem. Oh my gosh. I am still mesmerized by the game show. Who can we depend on in Singapore to create a fabulous game show like this? I guess only I can do it! What Huan Le Dian Feng? Bleh. CMI lah!!!

Meet the REAL PIKACHU!
It almost sounded digital! But judging from the pitch of her voice, I think she is the real deal.

Shes gonna be my new idol!!!



And since we are talking about Pikachu, I am sure you guys want to have your own Pikachu right? Well NOW YOU CAN!!! Just click on the link below.
I already got mine :D

FIVE MOST COMMON FACEBOOK FAILS

Source

Thanks to Facebook, mobile devices and impaired judgment, we're only a few seconds (and clicks) away from staining our entire extended social network! That's piece of mind in your pocket. To make sure you never appear on Facebook Fails, follow our how-not-to guide of the five most common Facebook faux pas.

1. Married Schmoopy Fail

Why whisper sweet nothings when you can shout hot garbage? Why practice safe sexts when you can PDA with your PDA? Excessive spousal schmoopiness is easily the most frequently occurring fail (at least in my circle), and the primary reason Facebook should create a "dislike" button. There's even a specialty site for repeat offenders called STFU, Marrieds.

2. Mom Invasion Fail

She's reading, she's typing, she's commenting and liking :). She's poring over details, discovering secrets and crushing your game. And wherever Mom goes, Big Daddy is right behind.

3. Relationship Fail

It's not officially awkward until it's on Facebook.

4. Grammer Fail (sp?)

No spell check or auto-correct functions can stand between the fast-typing, carefree status updaters and the passive-aggressive grammar cops who love them.

5. Darwin Fail

Special thanks to the folks who enrich our lives by failing to grasp the basic concepts of food safety, unknowingly exploring the subtle joys of double irony, etc.

I totally deserve a PhD. right now! Who could have created two theories within the span of 3 hours. Only YOURS TRULY can.

Jin's Anti-Stress Theory:

My good friend, Voluptious Boobies, was asking me if there was any method to help him relief exam stress. So I came up with this brilliant solution for him based on the very fundamentals of material science!

Stress = Force applied/Area exposed

In this case, force applied is a constant because all the exams and tests and tutorials and what-nots are fixed. They are already pre-determined and there is nothing you can do to change them. What you can change is the area exposed, that is how much you are exposed to the force.

By revising more and doing more past year exam papers, you are exposing yourself more to the subject. You will then become more familiar with them and once you are familiar with them, you will be able to tackle all those pesky exam questions.

As with all other fractions, you increase the denominator in order to get a smaller value. So, if you want to reduce exam stress, simply practice more questions and revise more. Ha. Who would have thought that the basics of material science could help us in reducing our exam stress? Well, I did.

Everyone is Full of Shit Theory:

Now this has got to be the simplest theory in the entire history of mankind. No shit. In fact, I think it is because of its simplicity that many great scientists and philosophers missed it in the past, until now.

Most, if not all, humans shit everyday until their death. So if an average human being lives for 70 years, he would have 70 years worth of shit stored within him. In other words, everyone of us is full of shit! There you have it. The simplest theory of all time.

So next time, when people says you are full of shit, don't believe them. Because everyone is full of it!

What the heck is wrong with their intellect? And this actually took place in ION ORCHARD? SHINGZ!

Reach the restaurant to find out that it is closed.
Open the fridge only to see that you ran out of milk.
Ignite your engine and suddenly remember that you forgot to refuel.
Hit the 'on' button on your laptop only to discover that you forgot to turn on the power switch.
Speak to a stranger and find out that he was once your bestie in primary school.
Open your mouth but couldn't find the right words to speak.
Called a locksmith and realized that that your keys were in your breast pocket all the time.
Cross the road and get knocked down by a car.
Went to Africa for the first time and discover that you have agrizoophobia.

There are so many uncertainties in life. When something good comes along, treasure it! Otherwise, you can simply pass them to me =D

It takes time for a person to overcome the psychological trauma. But once you can narrate the entire experience, you know you have already recovered.

It has been a long way.

I want to live life the way I want it. Do things which I want to do and escape from all so called social norms and cultural etiquette.

Why must an unshaven, burly man with messy long hair be assumed to be someone who is lazy and alcoholic? Tucking in shirts and pulling their paints to the waist level is a characteristic of nerds and retards. Having a good physique and good looks means you are someone who is charming and every lady's man. Being born with birth defects is equivalent to being a burden to society.

Since when did all this stereotypes embed themselves in almost every person's brain? Are we looking (and believing) too much on the surface? How many of us are pursuing an education because we believe it is beneficial for us? Stop and think for a moment. OR is it really because we want to fit into the equation of "academic qualifications = capable people" as dictated by modern society?

When one person takes the courage to dream big, someone will shoot him down as being over-ambitious and unrealistic. Are you criticizing the dreamer because he is really being unrealistic, or is it because you are jealous that he beat you to dreaming big and you do not want to appear to be insignificant? Lord Kelvin, the famous scientist who left his name on our temperature scale today once proclaimed that heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible. Today, we have thousands of tonnes of steel flying hundreds of humans across entire oceans. Charles H Duell, US Commissioner of Patents said in 1899: "Everything that can be invented has already been invented." That poor man surely never thought he would be able to enjoy porn in the privacy of his own room one day.

I can't stand people when they tell me that I must behave in a certain manner or dress in a certain manner because of the existence of someone else, be it in school or at work. Fuck that. With only one shot at it, I will not live my life, any part of it, in servitude to any other person, unless I choose to. Of course, that is only in my mind. In reality, sadly, I still conform myself to such social norms. I am still not courageous enough to break away from this rat race.

I was talking to a friend earlier and she mentioned that she lives life realistically. No offense and it is perfectly alright, but I feel that it is rather unexciting to give yourself only realistic goals in life. Be more confident of your capabilities and sometimes, do try to aim higher than you normally would. If you achieved it, then good for you. Otherwise, it is a good try and you can always do it again. Spare yourselves the criticism from those pesky little cynics. It is your birth right to dream big. Where they hit you down and laugh at you baby, is where you ought to rise again.

Some might say precisely because we live only once, we have to be wary and make choices carefully in order to make the best out of our life. Is it really an achievement to live a life free of failures and downfalls? Who says we cannot live a fruitful life with pitfalls in it? I guess following the social factory process (study hard, get a good job, start a family, live happily ever after) is really exciting for some people (no offense, its your life and its just my opinion).

Life. Infinite choices. Did you choose the right one? Actually, that is an erroneous question. Nobody can say someone else's decision is wrong for it is that person's will to choose what he wants best for himself.

The correct question is "Life. Infinite choices. Did you regret any?"

I am now majoring in Hall Life Studies and minoring in Aerospace Engineering. Can't wait to get my degree after 4 years.

Human beings can be pretty strange at times. They know that some things are bad for them but yet they keep having the urge to do it. Take shopping for example. You know you already have a similar item at home and you DO NOT need the new item. Somehow, you just pick the item up and before you know it, you are on your way home with something which you don't really need together with an unnecessary hole in your wallet.

Is this what they call the Shopaholic syndrome? If it is, someone please light a path for me.

だれかがわたしのあなたのなりますか。

My head was itchy so I scratched it and halfway thru, this little fellow fell out of my hair. It has got to be the Big Bully Shampoo which I am using. The natural ingredients in it must have attracted the bug. Jackie Chan wasn't lying after all =D

This is erm... most... interesting advertisement. I am getting a Nissan GTR.
The Japs are damn kinky with their creativity. I am... erm... distracted. Hmm.. hmm.. hm. Mm.

And if you can't, don't worry because you are in the "Ordinary" spectrum of our social hierarchy, which most people are in. This assortment of alphanumericals is Google's method of recruiting 'beautiful minds' from the esteemed Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Google Is Searching For Beautiful Minds, But So Far No M.I.T. Students Have Broken Its Code.

It used to be that M.I.T was filled with code-breakers. Part of the movie A Beautiful Mind takes place there and in real life it’s always had close ties with the military and intelligence agencies. Tech companies also like to recruit there, and Google is no exception.

In search of some beautiful minds, Google has been putting up signs around the M.I.T campus with a code that say, “If you can figure this out, you may have a future with Google.” If they crack the code, which is a fairly simple substitution cipher (or not), it reveals a phone number where they can leave their contact information.

So far, no M.I.T. students have been able to crack the code, or at least they haven’t bothered to leave a voicemail. Maybe they need some help. The first person to crack the code gets a TechCrunch T-shirt, or maybe a job at Google if you call the number and leave your name.

We have a winner: Actually two, it was a team effort. Scott Kyle did the set-up and Hakan came up with the final answer: 617-639-0570. The number is a substitution cipher that you get by writing out 0-9 then A-Z, then using the keyword “JOBS” to shift the letters.

Interestingly, there is also a second solution (617-274-8660), which leads to another non-Google recruiting number. That one might just be a red herring, or a way to weed out the semi-smart folks who couldn’t come up with the harder solution.

That is really an interesting method of recruitment. A code which reveals more information for you to contact your future employer once you decipher it. We don't get that in Singapore. Maybe Hardwarezone can organize something like this here. Or Sgforums. Or Mocca.

Man I already feel like switching course to Computer Engineering. My new goal: becoming a cryptographer for the National Security Agency. Viva la AMERICA!
