Curses

Curses

2 More days till the end of this month.
DMC 4 TIME XD!
On another note,2 managers at my workplace will be transfered to a different outlet,and I will get two new ones who are from what I heard very strict.I liked the Store manager Adrianne cause although sometimes she yells orders at you,she helps you out and if your in a pinch or taking a break,she would get someone else to cover for you.The other manager thats gonna be transfered,well I say good riddance cause so far she's not very well liked.I hadnt had breakfast and was gonna have soup when she told me to go deliver the food to some tower...- -;;
My current plan is that if the two new managers are bearable,I give it another 2-3 months.Anyways I am very tired.I am obviously not cut out to do grunt work...- -;;.So tired infact I had to skip a few classes to regenerate my health back lol.

Yesterday,Passion019 added me to her now newer msn add which was kind of out of the blue and at first I thought it was some guy.Later she came on and we talked and she ended up in the same situation as me.You know the situation with me and that elusive where-in-time-is-carmen-sandiego.And yeah its inevitable Passion would mention her sooner or later.She mentioned Mai was going out with alot of guys,Trying hard to love a guy and something along the lines of trying to make me hate her or something.Well frankly I dont know.I dont hate her thats a fact.And yes I still L_ _ _ her if you are wondering.That brings about a very interesting thought though.How the hell can you love/like someone you have never met before in your whole life?Isnt it the same like those old chinese movies where the dude/chick falls in love with a ghostie?Same here except no voices,no exploding powers or evil vampire warlords.

You know,spending on stuff is addictive and when you own new stuff....its like you feel powerful,even so if you have cash in your wallet.

Daywatch....Oh man its was so awesome,if fact I am still talking about it right now.Rented the VCD from nearby shop.Was more well done than nightwatch,although I wish they explained whats the Gloom.Anton is pretty skillful for a low-level Light Other despite being up against higher level ones.The part where Anton and Olga switches body was weird lol.
"You made me into a tranny"
"And why is my ass wiggling?"
Anton seeked the Chalk of destiny and discovers that you can only remake decisions that you made,not others what made.The Daywatch seems bent on breaking the Truce by framing Anton for murder.They ofcourse cant break it outright less the Inquisitors come and punish them.The Daywatch are much more sneaky and cunning,probably because of Zavulon.

Also rented Pirates of the Carribbean:World's end.I have to say,I needed subtitles most of the time as I dont understand what the hell they were talking sometimes.Jack Sparrow again,proved why he was so hard to catch.And why the hell Davy Jone's locker isnt a locker??

Taking forever to complete 1 game out of 4 games in Orange Box.Realise that Half-life 2 is pretty long winded,due to the fact of very long vehicle scenes...- -;;

Polymourous

- -;; blogger had better publish this post....to lazy to rewrite a another one.Turns out its my Computer/Internet that has rebelled against me.They make the internet so slow that every,almost every website I visit I get a website not found.....- -;;...

Recently noticed that my finger nails,you know the pink part is turning a darker shade of pink and sort of purplish at the base.Is it the sign of an illness or something?If someone has information,please come forward.And also when I cough,I can feel it in my stomach and also feels like I want to vomit.Plan to go see a doctor at the end of the month for a check up.

Okay so possible death causing illnesse indications aside,work news now.The SSU,(Self-service unit) is the most evilest computer ever to have been placed in a restraunt.Its so un-user friendly and when stuff goes wrong,you be hard pressed on how to recitify the problem.UNfortunately,its also the computer that I have to use to key in orders... --;;.Its relatively simple if its just a small order,but hugely difficult if its a long order or the order has alot of combination of meal deals and such.The manager even told me that I key in slow....thats because like I only have a week of work experience.....- -;;....Anyway I did bar for 3 straight days ^^,which is kinda better considering how crazy it is during dinner service.For most of the time I am alone but somtimes Shukor,my bar mentor is around as he has to handle the cashier and helps me out alittle.Yesterday was funny as its difficult to listen to 4 people talking at the same time.- -;;.Sharmilla was asking me about the melted Ice-cream.The CSR auntie was telling me to serve 2 Ice-cream.The manager was asking me something and the server was asking me for Ice water.All this while I was trying to scoop Ice-cream. - -;;.

Order taking is easy.But there comes a time where,it is difficult.Take one group of customer I took an order for example.I asked the dude what he like to have,he replied in a tone as if I killed his cat or something.I had to repeat my order again as the other two of his companions couldnt make up what they want and kept ordering and changing stuff.Yeah It was pretty scary as it look like he was about to rail at me at any moment.
My pay is about 4.50 per hour,which isnt really that great considering all the work you got to do.But thats work right.Cant always have your cake and eat it.Just put up with it for the cash.Getting my pay tonight XD.Working at Pizza hut is pretty tiring but its pretty fun and okay.Shukor turns out to be a friend of my classmate in ITE and his girlfriend who works there knows them too.Some are sec 3 people.Some are waiting for O'level results.Just saying this but,there is a girl,sec 3 Normal Academic who just work there 3 day.....is pretty interesting
^ ^.Think her name is Yi Kai or something.
Project-wise....it is what it is.Making slow progress after finally starting on something last week and our date line is febuary.........Ayumi Hamasaki recently release 'guilty' over here and despite the news of her being handicapped in the left ear,I am still not a fan of her simply because like Koda Kumi,she tends to diva-rise her voice and over accessorize everything as if it was a chingay parade or something.As you know by now I am a Yuna Ito fan,her CDs are non-existant around here,she is not known around here and most likely she will never have a consert here.Why I like her is because her singing is pure and simple.
Her MTVs showcase the song,her singing and the message well.Like "endless story".It was set at a castle,she was in a beautiful red dress,the MTV showed the beatiful landscape,simple yet great fomula.And yeah she cant really dance like Nami tamaki or some others but her great live perfomances makes up for it.http://playlog.jp/yuna/blog/ her blog...supposedly.Cant tell as my com turns jap words into squares.

Yes and Loki is still afraid of cosplayers.^^;;.Something I still can never get though.Cosplay is about looking and acting like the character.But if you dont really look like the character,sound like the character then......umm you just dress up for fun and go to a cosplay convention just for the spirit of cosplaying???And most costumes that were made dont seem wearable in real life as opposed in the anime where the characters wear them everyday and it doesnt seem polyesterly or canvas-y and more of its actually made of cloth like cotton.Also the reason why I design my my characters costume to be more on not so over the top side and incorporate more usual clothes for the missions on the human world and more amour-y outfits for the demon mission.For the final battle,their armour is so armour-y,I can be sued for resembling them like space marine XD.

To add on.I have the fitness level of a FAT person..- -;;.I failed 2.4km run,long jump and Chin up for my NAFA test.Even a couple of girls beat me..- -;;.Such is a price when your mind is constantly developed but the dude who has the mind is lazy to exercise.Body still sore from the shock of exercising for points...- -;;

Rioting Dragon

- -;;...blogger didnt save my previous draft of this post...resulting in having to re-write this post....again.Where to starts....

Oh Mai the ever elusive leprechaun appeared on MSN this past monday.Dropped a few hellos but didnt reply.Status was set to idle.Stayed on until eventually I had to go to school.
Working is pretty fun....just that I get so tired after working,its like I am super lazy to go to school.Mr Rohaizat nominated me,Jufri,Shu Bin and Samuel for the CCA award.Dont know what its for but no cash is involved so I didnt really pay heed to it.Whats important for me is getting the progression to poly second year thing.

So far I have worked for 4 days and seems to be coming along quite nicely.I havnt been doing any order taking despite me being a server as well its the most important part and is the scary part.One thing that I dont understand is when the customers asks me all sorts of weird questions and I dont really full know the menu.Doesnt help when you dont have a good memory as well.Part of ordertaking is also keying in the order at this computer terminal which is pretty confusing.So at most my job as a server is just to take the bill,clear the table,send food/drinks and set the table.If someone wants to order,I just find someone that knows how to order take,which often most of the time,that someone is already busy with something and its like I am making it worse for them.

I enjoy doing bar most though.Everything is in order although in midst of chaos.Even if I dont know how to make a particular desert,there is a file teaching me how to do it.I am pretty anxious on getting my first pay XD.The manager said its every 2 weeks.Its been two weeks....umm..maybe...dont know.
So far I met all the managers,and most often is the store manager and the AM manager that I worked with.
Abby and Farahan(sp?) has gotten better at their work when I came for work last friday.They knew what was what.Its pretty obvious because they worked everyday and I only worked on friday and the weekend.Makes me feel like I am the only Noob left...- -;;

On more pressing matters,is well my project Module.I can safely say that my group has so far for six months has done,absolutely
NOTHING
and the due date is in 2 weeks time.I find that the main reason we havnt done anything is because of our project supervisor.Each time we try to source materials to even try making something,he doesnt know anything and doesnt give much valueble advice.He also doesnt push my group earlier on to do something.Another reason was that getting everyone together was difficult.Always someone is absent.I find what Mr Rohaizat said to be true.
"If you wait for everyone,the project will never take off and in the end everyone loses interest in it"
On the positive side,Raj said he's making progress building it on his own(i didnt know this until this week).At this point,I dont care anymore.I just want this Mutha-F***** of a project to just die.Who the hell suggested we do this anyway.....

I find that girls in story/anime/games are better suited for heavy melee combat and guys better suited with guns.It somewhat breaks the stero-type of girls using butter knifes or a gun totting madames of doom.Thats why I gave Ciel a monster of a sword thats larger than her to handle with only ONE ARM,thats the intended result although she uses both hands at the start.i guess its more awe and cool to see a girl swing it around than a guy do it and guys look alot cooler with guns.Example of this is Dante.Badass with guns.So far few has managed to challenge the prowess of the Gun queen,"Two-hands" Revy while guys there had been alot like Vash the stampede,Train heartnet.

When the hell is DMC4 coming here.It isnt fair Europe and other parts of the world is getting it first....I am pretty bored as I finished Folklore and WWE smackdown VS raw(finally).My little sister commented
"Who ask you to finish folklore so quickly?"
Cant help it.Once I have a new game,I would play and make sure it is complete.I sure hope DMC4 has bloody palace.Makes the game more fun and endless.Too bad Nevan isnt in it.......
but gilglamesh looks pretty fun to use.And oh Dante gets Yamato.Thats Vergil's sword.He's so badass with it that he Judgement cuts the whole screen!Vergil could only do it half screen.
Theres been talk about a DMC5,taking place 50 years later.Dante doesnt look half bad for an ageing demon hunter.
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/Carbonox_ratchet/DMC4Scan2.jpg
It was floating around at Gamefaqs.

The Golden path is alittle....I dont know off-key to me at the moment.I find Jin Long to be someone who became like that due to circumstances and that the evil guy is still winning lol.
Kinship II.Well I sort of prefer the so called bad guys as they seem more real,have solid reasons on why they did what they did and less irritating that the good guys.I swear each time Yusheng calls Dinosaur,its so irritating and who in the correct mind would call your mother in law mama dinosaur.Even if its a joke,thats pretty disrespectful.

3,2,1 Karas

Skipped school by accident today.Work up at the wrong time XP.

Was tired from the whole Singapore Robotics Games thing at Science centre.Ended up not doing anything,other then taking down times of the wall climbing robot as my mouse maze robot officially passed away yesterday and my teacher was insistant that it wasnt dead and wanted some expert to try and revive it.

This year the souveir is some deformed pen which is kinda awkward to write with.Lead me to believe that the SRG people were over budget and decided to go cheapo.Last year they gave out book light thingys.

When it comes down to school pride,people can really get paranoid..- -;;.A TP student reported NYP student robot had exceeded the restricted extension measurement when its the TP first place postition was unsurped by the NYP.

Dude,we measured it and like....unless all of us were on 10 cans of Jolly shandy,we cant be wrong - -;;

Thank goodness though,My teacher decided to drive us home.Had to keep awake as didnt want to possibly stain the car interior with acid XD.


I forgot to mention that My pizza hut shirt was alittle burnt.^^;;.The manager has asked me to iron it after i got it,with a weird iron and it was on a square computer table...- -;;.She set it up to high and I was smart enough to stop when i smelt something burnt.Hope the Boss which I havnt met yet dont umm pick me out and ask me the 10 moments thing from the corporate training video as I am not so sure I remember all of them.Lets see


1)Greet/Show seating 2)Give menu(make sure its on the soup and salad)3)Take order4)Serve soup/salad/entrees/drinks 5)Serve Main course 6)Follow up with desert 7)serve desert 8)present bill 9)cant remember....10)wish them bwye.....


My mother told me today turns out my Auntie's husband workplace,canadian pizza had wanted to hire people........

I was like......

IF YOU TOLD ME SOONER,I WOULDNT HAVE TAKEN THE PIZZA HUT ONE IN THE FIRST PLACE as the Canadian one was in Siglap...about 30mins from here.Auntie fault here...

--;;


The website I get most of my animated gifs is pretty well racist,primarly to the white/black person thing.For some reason though,Black people are more prone to violence/killings.I dont confirm this nor do I say any of this is true.Anyway most of the animated section...is pretty umm..offlimits to minors ^^;; for good reason as there is some sick ones.. - -;; like umm real-life bombings where body parts are flying.


Yuna Ito's "A world to believe in"is awesome.Its a duet with Celine Dion.Watching the MTV is alittle weird as Celine's parts arent many and its like she's thinking"I be dammed if I let her upstage me".

Cant listen to it until I upgrade my memory card to 4 gb.

So far all my Jap songs are about 1.27 gb,about 279 songs

English ones about 689 mb,about 107 songs

In most peoples computers,thats not very alot I gather.


So far the list of must buy i have compliled and goes something like this,

Devil May Cry 4 $89++,collectors edition $120?

DualShock 3 $69

4 gb memory card $80

Gaming stuff aint cheap...- -;;


Decided to write a mini-story as well I dont exactly have the time to write a full one and wanted readers to read something....seeing that my readers are only clare and faithy... - -;;......
Thats very.........encouraging.....not.Atleast 2 is better than 0......not by alot.
And I present the Gif Section.Pity you cant take them due to the right click disable XP

Very funny gif on swimming


Paper folding,Matrix style

The new meaning of Tired-ness

Just started my job at Pizza Hut at Suntec City..

And it was so damm tiring.

Still feeling the sores in my calfs and ankles.

I worked about 11hrs on that day and i was abit sick too.

The job was not bad.The positions are usually rotated,and i was given the job of manning the bar.

The seniors were nice,especially this girl whom i think is older than me,by the name of Sharmilla.She is nice and all but I am somewhat fearing to get on her badside.
she worked there for a good two years already.
^^;;

It started off good with me just dispensing drinks and adding lemons and peaches to lemon tea or peach tea.I still cant grasp the specialty drinks like kiwi frizz or starberry frizz.The AM manager did help me out every now and then with those kind of drinks.

Then came dinner service.Well actually I could have left by 5pm,but seeing that it was my first day and thought I stayed back at the manager's request.

It was hell i tell you.Orders kept coming in and soon all the seniors who were helping me around the bar was doing order taking,serving or cashier-ing.Then it was quiet.Then it became strange.Why is the servers tell me the orders instead of the ticket machine behind me dispensing tickets????Turns out it ran out of paper and when Sharmilla came back to check on me,she refilled the ticket machine with paper and a long.....DAMM LONG list of drink orders piled up- -;;.

She reprimanded me."If there is no drinks orders when it is so busy,confirm something is wrong right?".So I worked to finish the list and the manager help to check which drinks were already made.And so i was up to my neck with work like preparing cold water,the dispensing of pepsi etc and washing the cups,when it became quiet without me noticing it again.This time another senior checked on me and pressed the error button to get it working again.

"Bro next time the light never light up,call me okay"
AGAIN another longer longer longer list of orders came out.The Manager instantly came and helped me out till it was cleared.Another problem was that the servers werent bringing back the glasses so I was left with very little glasses and when the glasses did come back,they came back in mountains...- -;;.
Was also reprimanded by Sharmilla again for the way i tore of the ticket.Apparantly it has to be diagonally across and not just pull down.She swear she scream at me if I did that again and made me practice it over and over.By this time I could tell she's alittle annoyed at me but who could blame her as I am somewhat making her job harder.But honestly I could use help without someone asking me if they noticed a huge load of dirty glasses behind me,orders stacking up and cold water glasses were dissappearing..- -;;

At the end of the day I had a pretty bad back ache from the bending over with heavy load of glasses to put into the dishwasher.Confirmed my schedule with the manager and its something like this
Friday:3pm-10pm(i think)
Saturday:11am-10pm
Sunday:5pm-10pm but most likely I would change it to 11am to 5pm instead cause monday is a schooling day.
Was told i would do serving on Friday + some typhoid injection.



Today also had to attend to my club booth(dont ask what club as I didnt join on my own free will,more to coerced into it)at the CCA fair.I WANTED TO GO HOME AND SLEEP.I been having Insommia.I think i figured out why.If i think alot before going to sleep,i would have trouble sleeping due to my mind being too active and when my body sleep,my mind would be an ongoing radio playing random songs that I heard before...- -;;


Been entertaining the thought of possibly coming up with a detective story but alot different from Matantei Loki or Deathnote.Not different for different's sake but.......
Was inspired from Keats from folklore.The Otacon look alike with serious faery firepower.Even his cloak looks cool.
Also been entertaining something of a black lagoon meets Gundam seed fusion kinda story.
Oh if you been wondering how Ciel looks like,while before watching chinese drama,they show who the sponsors right,Ciel looks like that girl posing for Shiseido,Maquillage.Right down to 80% of her Legends uniform.

The Cold war at home seems to be escalating - -;;.Father not talking to Mother and vice-versa.Usually I dont know what the cause is and I dont take heed but the increase of this sort of thing warranted my attention.Its hard having a hot tempered father and now over worked mother cause sometimes I dont even know what to do.Both getting on the years and Father been having this bad cough.My elder sister...well lets just put it as my parents have dont care she live or die/disown her and she is free-loading of my house/hotel to her of electricity(and i mean lots of it,she doesnt switch of her room light for 22hrs straight) and water.My little sister...well she is too pampered to even bother doing everything.So my mother is now tired from getting overworked from doing all the chores.I do help out but cant really do much.

Case File 1989
Warm winds swept across the roof of a lavish aparment building.In the mix,a long,silky black hair danced among the wind and shone through the afternoon soon.Black tear trails told the story of how much regret she has felt.She curled up to hide her face from the all seeing sun and wallowed in the shadow of herself.People were scrurrying about like little ants she thought as she peeked over the ledge she perched on.Her long,fair legs dangled from the ledge,no longer feeling fear of possible death.Her white sun dress finally rested,after fluttering about in the wind.She took a deep breath as she slowly stood up from the ledge,going to test if a person really does turn into a blood pool after hitting the ground from a roof of a 100 storey building.
*BANG,DOOR SWINGS OPEN*
"Your one hard person to catch Miss Anderson."A confident voice made her pause.It was her pursuer,coming to bring her to justice for the audacities she hath comitted.
"Leave me,I deserve death,I cant bear to face anyone anymore"She cried,making her final demands known.
"I am not here to tell you not to jump,but just hear me out.In a way,you did no wrong,rather its what anyone would do in order to survive.You killed that manager by accident out of anger that he cheated of every cent that you had.Knowing how your heart is,you were guilty beyond reason.He still haunts you at night.You also felt you let your fans down,everyone including your sister.Its still not to late to right the wrongs.Just a question whether or not you have the courage to face the music"With all that said the pursuer began to climb down the stairs.
"What ever it is,I will meet you downstairs by the cafe for tea,see you"after the brief pause as he dissappearing into the shadows.
*Ring(insert your handphone ringtone)*
"So have you aquired the suspect?"A female voice beckons the pursuer.
"Nah,give me another 10-15 mins,she is still thinking"He answers simply
"Thats a very dangerous suspect you have on the roof up there.She killed her manager using an illegal class 5 magic incantation,attacked the police and Cypher team sent to arrest her and..."
"Blew up the standford bridge with another class 5 spell when she escaped custody,I know,it was a bloody fireworks of a day that day.But come on,cut me some slack here,you know she is my...."The pursuer ended her list of wrongdoings of Cynthia Anderson for her.
"20mins max,another second and I am sending another Cypher team armed with Arcane beam rifles."
"Usually your suspects end up dead or dismembered...She must be something different"The operator thoughed.
"Thanks J.C. I knew you knew me the best"The pursuer hung up.
10mins later
The pursuer sat outside the cafe,under the shade of a huge umbrella.A strawberry parfait was slowly melting,as it sat on the table across him.He waited patiently for the ultimatium.When...
*THUD*
Something had fallen from a height and made a large sound.The pursuer analysted the sound.
"Its too soft and uniform.....and theres no sound of squishy-ness.....what was it that..."
"Is this for me?"A familiar voice broke the thoughts of the pursuer.
"Yeah,you only have 5 minutes though"The pursuer smiled as his gamble had payed off.He peered to the back and noticed it was a matteress that fell out of the sky.
"At most you would get 10 years at Maxell women state pentianary.Thats in Demon years so wouldnt be that long."
Cynthia kept quiet as the pursuer blabbed on.
When she finished her parfait.The pursuer said
"Promise me,keep on singing okay,you may not believe it but,your songs are something like penicillin for emotional pains ^^"
With that,She shed a tear,as police officers arrived on the scene and approached Cynthia with Impartial Justice written on their foreheads.
"Hey no Handcuffs for her,those things leave scars."The pursuer barked an order as he sank back into the garden chair.
"Sorry sir"

New year

As you may or may not know,the reason i was unable to come online for the past two weeks was that Starhub cut my internet connection cause the previous bill hasnt been settled.And those were like the longest 2 weeks of my life..- -;;

Cause I was bored out of my mind,I suffered mild insommia due to my brain not being used alot LOL.
And I did try to find a job......I applied for a service crew position at Suntec City's Pizza hut.They only replied like 2 weeks later after I applied.Bad news is that I am down with the Flu...come to think of it,whole family is down with it....more bad news is that they want me to come down tomorrow at 10am for training+some typhoid injection(just a code name for nano implants to make me move like a ninja XP)

A few weeks ago,because of boredom,i roamed the internet and came across the what you might call,the Motherload of Doujins.Fast forward a few days,and i already downloaded like....100+ doujins?which umm most of them arent intended for minors ^^;;(dont judge me,I am an anime fan guy ><)
It really impress me that some of the best drawings are in there.Seriously.It also has the most stupidest storylines ever..- -;;well some of them.I particularly like Eye behind the eyepatch for it made most sense and its more sweet kinda stuff then umm....you know.

I rebought folklore at $49,a few months after Sony "ate" my $70 one.So total I spent was $119 for the same game..- -;;.That aside,I am pretty glad I did.Story wise,its damm good.The twist in the end left an unanswerable question....is Keats a halflive?After all Ellen/Cecilia drew him 17 years ago....plus the magazine he worked for ended 17 years ago....but that still doesnt answer why he was able to appear during the day and he was able to absorb other folks.To think all the dark sercets all started with young Cecilia just wanted to save her friend Herve.I still havnt figured out what Ellen's mother came to Doolin for.Bad points are well the voice acting could be way better.They almost sound as if they werent trying.Would love a sequel that brings back Keats,another new girl and maybe a kid.

DMC4 is coming out end of this month.I also came across a DualShock 3 controller.Most likely DMC4 would cost about...$80-$90.I think i have spent $500 on gaming alone.

Placebo vol 1 was okay for me.I couldnt indetify what the main character was trying to be.For most part reading the book one name keeps popping out and comparing Millia with her.Thats right,she is "Two-hands"Revy.Revy seems alot plausible despite her vulgar attitude and not so great appearance,but atleast I know for sure what she is.She is cold blooded when need be in order to survive,as it has always been since she was small.Her gun antics are also more cool.And her partner which Millia claims isnt her partner looks alot like Daisuke from D.N.angel

That brought me to the whether or not to continue LEgaCY in the third season which brought about a very interesting twist that will make you yell out WTF!!!! if you were watching the first episode(in anime form which is never gonna happen).As far as I know,it has never been done before.No its not some mixed up of episode chronology like Suzumiya Haruhi,infact its like telling a kid to ride a bike,then suddenly jam the brake and tell him to skateboard.

Faithy said that I am picky about girls?^^;;....Well to tell you the truth,I am not picky.Just that if the girl doesnt have a bit of interest in me and vice versa for me,theres no point for me to even do anything.And theres affinity and so and so.If you want to help find one for me,be my guest.My ideal girl is
-like that girl in Air,not the blond one,the one who has a kid sister.I like her subtle-ness and not mean sarcasm.She cooks too
-honest
Thats all lol.Either that surprise me with something else.
