so fast its friday tml. too tired to do up a long post with crap. mayb tml. going to service my razer headphone tml + go SITEX see speakers after GEMS, mayb buying lo. today super boring la, zZz...today morning saw jayne at the lrt station, but she's on the other side. Didnt talked much cuz she's on the phone plus in the morning i dun like to talk. As usual, i'm late for school again. VERY VERY boring. WCD nowadays cr4zy-ly hard for me. Javascript sux. Couldnt keep up with the pace, so i diverted from the class, looking into forums and went into surfing the net. Den gin smsed me ask me help him hoot some stuff from SITEX. I'm ok with it la, but i need him to gimme exact models, cuz the money we're dealing is power.
Btw gin, if u wanna go SITEX with me tml, i'll be going there late also, cuz i'll go down to Ban Leong Tech. first to service my headphones.
I officially lost my first thumbdrive on Monday. Sux la, my practicals all in there.
Tuesday I went for my IDEA presentation, the product my group came out with was rejected, so gotta revamp lo. Felt so sian during tuesday so i went home after IDEA lesson, didnt attend DBMS and NETF. Decided to fix my soundcard lo. And its officially the first time i opened up my own comp and fix stuff into it myself. My dad always does it for me. Spent 1 hr cautiously fixing the soundcard and console into my PC cuz my comp's ex to me. It worked. The result's very satisfying, anyone wanna test can come my house test, but gimme a call first.
Wednesday was a long day, with the SMIT security awareness event. I, Louis, Cr, Paul and many more were manning the games booth. At first like no business one, but then suddenly one by one come lo. Den suddenly got two chabor take about 10-20 pieces of word search crap from us. LOL, take for whole lecture hall, do during lecture wtf? The reward's a CD-RW, which is quite lame to me, but its just a small prize for a small little game. Plus we gave "hints", actually err, more like we gaf the answers. Got a copy of Norton Antivirus 2007, which is again lame to me. So anyone wants that unopened copy of Norton Antivirus, i'm willing to sell at $30.

Top Spin 2
Firstly, the graphics sux. Details very blurr. Then, the gameplay is pure crap. Taking up 3 gb for such a low quality game is total BS. Keys not user friendly. Say NO to this game like how you'll say no to drugs.

Good set of speakers, made my rounds around Funan, and the cheapest set cost $200 - $210. The size is damn big, size on the picture is deceiving. I thought it was small at first but,
SUBWOOFER
Width = 22cm
Length = 31cm
Height = 40cm
Each Satellite
Width = 13cm
Length = 6cm
Height = 26cm
Damn big rite? But be sure to have quality bass and sound quality.
Rating on CNET - 8.9/10

Altec Lansing FX6021
This speakers looks to be better in blowing your house. Look at the number of holes on each satellite - 6. For speakers more holes = better lo. Compared to MX5021 this is better at producing big volumes. Plus the satellite base can be removed, which means can blutack the satellites on my wall. Saves more space. But the problem is that this set of speakers more ex by at least 70 bucks. Can kill man. Saw @ funan around $270. Hope SITEX will reduce price.

A different Sunday.
Woohoo...listening to pat metheny's "Always and Forever" while doing up this post. Today played for church, wasn't that good actually, in fact quite screwed up. Maybe too nong never touch my guitar liaoz, had been dreaming about bass the past few days. Today in church while sitting on my seat getting ready for worship, i looked across the room, omg? so little people. Sunday's the only time i can touch my dad's precious electric guitar, so also very song la. Lolz... got a call from karhock during sermon, so i stepped out and excitedly pick up the call lo.
Karhock GOT the X-Fi Fatal1ty for me. YES, for me. lol...But the bad part of the news is that Karhock could only get one unit, cuz its policy that promo items limited to 1 per person, which means Jonathan don't get it lo. Sad ar, Jon. And if Jon don't get I also sian. Cuz if Jon can get it at promo price too then that's means we can split the money to pay Karhock. And Karhock also sad if Jon don't get it, cuz if he managed to get 2 units, he'll receive $70 from me and Jon. Let's make it simpler to understand:
If Karhock gets two promo units, one for me and one for Jon,
Karhock will receive $70.
Jon and I will only have to pay karhock $35 each.
If Karhock gets one promo unit, one for me,
Karhock will receive $60.
I will have to pay karhock $60.
But anyway also earn la, cuz original price $400+. Just got the soundcard from Karhock just now @ 2.30pm i think. Then excitement fill the air liaoz. Now gotta think when i'm gonna install the soundcard into my comp, cuz i leave my comp on everyday like every second until i sleep. May need junwei A.K.A Sexy Boss to help me too.
And now some pics, quality not that good la, cuz use my sis' hp cam.
The smile is cheesy i know, but i duno how to smile properly la. The highlight of this pic is the soundcard, my Razer Barracuda HP-1 which i bought almost 2 months ago, and my smile.

The highlight of my day, Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty soundcard. Thanks karhock. Comes with a console and remote. Bought at promo price $219. The guy's face on the box is some cr4zy gamer who endorses for this product.

Today's saturday, a time to rest, a time to slack after the past few cr4zy days of cheong-ing projects. I hope the effort put in is worth it. This is first post of this blog, but i've got a few in friendster, and those are real web logs. LOL. Eh, boring la, duno what to type.
Ok la, i'll set rules for this blog.
I will not,
Hmm, after using the text editor here awhile, i think it sux. The font changing function is screwed, the text-style is screwed. Not user-friendly, wtf?
23 Nov 2006
Lol...This text editor is really bugged. Thursday is the most busiest day of my week, at least for now. Cuz every Thursday after school got guitar lesson @ International Plaza. That like from Dover to Tanjong Pagar or Bt.panjang to Tanjong Pagar lol? Last time always decide to come home after school before going out again to international plaza but since 3 weeks back I started to go straight from SP. But the lol part of this is that I must wait for at least 2 hours at international plaza before my lesson starts. School ends at 4.30 but my lesson starts @ 6.30. zZz...
Guitar lessons getting irritating and boring, cuz now all fingerstyle crap. And the stuff they teach so not soothing to the ears. The chords like anyhow anyhow one. But nevermind, wait another 4 months finish liaoz...wooohohoohoo...
This thursday i was lucky enuff to catch to the last 700 from international plaza back to bt.panjang. Then as usual on the bus, i'll either fall asleep on the bus or i'll think about stuff. I thought about alot of crap on this trip. About how i was gonna finish my wcd project when the submission is on the next day. But i and louis still got the work done. And then i also thought of the electric bass, I wanna learn after my lame guitar lessons @ international plaza finish. Most probably from someone private or else bo bian, go yamaha learn. Thought of some crappy stuff, like what will happen if my dad, my sis and I play as a family band.
My Dad - Electric Guitar
My Sis - Piano
Me - Bass lor...
Why not acoustic you may ask. its cuz i phobia after i go international plaza learn acoustic. X_X. Really cool right? BUT, my dad and sis won't think so far like me la. They got they're own likes. Although they play, but they play for church only. Never really put in effort to learn more advanced stuff also. So ar, who got lobang for private bass teacher tell me.
And ya ar, although forgot, jonathan during the afternoon in class told me about creative's warehouse sale. I excited, but at the same time sian, cuz the promotion for the thing I want only on Sunday (I'm in church)...zZz...impossible to skip church to line up for a product right? LOL...den when i went home, i suddenly thought of the warehouse sale and thought of a cr4zy idea, pay someone to help me line up. Then, i put an ad on msn lo. Wait for people to reply. Den Clifford came to ask, but he got work so cant help me. Then the uber, handsome, karhock A.K.A Karl came, and help me for the $50. Thanks Karhock, make sure you help me get it.
And what's the it?
Here it is :
Its a soundcard FYI. Cheaper by almost 1/2 on Sunday if you get it. The catch is that only the first 50 units is the promo price.
Original Price : $429
Warehouse Price : $399
Promo Price : $219

I probably didnt know wth is this instrument till about last year or so. Didnt really took notice of this instrument, cuz usually when i hear songs, i seldom take notice of the instruments. Until one day when my sister told me to take up playing bass cuz she liked the sound it produced. Only then did I really take notice of the bass. And from day onwards, in every song I heard, I heard the bass. And as time past, I began to want to learn it.
Even then, I usually heard bass as the icing on the cake in songs. And I thought it was that way, until, youtube helped me understand my mistake. It can be played solo, rhythmically like the electric guitar too.
Victor Wooten
First thought after watching him = omg? Second thought = power!? Really good music. Like this type of music, is this comtempo or what? What I know its not metal (I hate metal, to me its some musicians trying to prove that loud is good. Jimi Hendrix's music is the limit for me) , but if you like metal, by all means, its our choice. =) If you liked the guy/video I posted, try this.
And this is all for 23 Nov 2006.
24 Nov 2006
Today must present ISE project and hand up WCD assignment liaoz. Nothing much lo. I and louis kept cheong-ing WCD until about 4pm, just one hour before submission deadline. Jonathan asked me to help him ask karhock to help purchase another soundcard for him at the warehouse sale. Today actually meeting up with karhock @ fajar lrt station @ 5pm to give him the money to buy the soundcards at first, but i did wcd assignment till 4 and stayed in SP until about 5+, so sms-ed him to tell him I can only meet him about 7pm. Met him and gave him the money. I'm little worried that he can't get it after reading something on the vr-zone forums. Some people planning to queue for the promo @ 6am. And then when I went home after meeting karhock, I played a little NFS: Carbon, but cant win Darius again, so i quit playing for the day and continued to watch wonderful videos on youtube featuring Victor Wooten.
That's all for today, have a nice day.
