Deadlines are lines which kill you when you don't finish your tasks on time... this is week 10... loads of deadline coming up this week... 4 out of 6 modules... super tired.. haven been sleeping much the past few days... felt really drowsy when i drive to school in the morning... BTSL video is coming to a close soon... left with editting and sound effects to do... den there's paper for engine prof... paper for urban planning... and huge project for infra project... everyday is packed with meetings and discussions and projects...

very tired now... need sleep....

How was NUS Week 8

this week is when all the projects actually have a meeting.. and that basically makes up my whole week... i haven been going for lecture.. nor have i been to much tutorials... but project meetings have been plenty... and most of them are enjoyable...

today.. i spent my WHOLE day at the DODO Fishball factory office... all the way at Senoko.. doing MNO video... elaine managed to get liyang(her long term chauffeur.. also the son of the MD of DODO)... there's yvonne who looked seriously like a female boss today, very professional looking lar!! den kah hwee or ah KAH after today, she just reminds me of the pantry.. all of us knkow why... elaine, well.. she's the future DODO bosstress... hahaa.. hope she dun get pissed by our irritance... hahaa.. Zerong, super funny was the stuff he says... especially those scenes which we were suppose to talk "rubbish" cos there would be no audio.. the "rubbish" he says.. simply makes everyone laugh till u drop!!! henkie.. our old man & bad man.. i think he had a great lesson in acting today.. hahaa... finally our main producer.. mr OH wenjun.. damn pro is what i have for him... and dues to our filming overrun.. think his family had to wait up for him for dinner... and FINALLY there's me!!! I think i'm a ultra crazy actor.. i think i like to act.. it's fun... or rather i like to be a comedian... just be lame...

that's just damn cool... we were running around the office shooting here, there, everywhere.. luckily it was public holiday.. so there werent much staff around to be irritated by us.. we were seriously noisy.. but there was loads of fun doing this video shoot.. and i got to act.. this is by far my first major role in any video clip ALL MY LIFE.. and i loved it.. it was just damn fun... although this video clip is ultimately supposed to be just 7 mins.. we managed to stay at the office for almost 12 whole hrs for filming... hahaa.. loads of wasted time on crapping and hysterical laughing... mostly by me...

technically it's elaine's birthday now... so we celebrated for her earlier on just now.. i actually bought cake for her yesterday.. and hid it in my car.. and i only remebered to take the cake after like 5 hrs of filming.. hahaa.. i shove it into the fridge immediately.. i guess it was still ok when we ate it.. heheee.. hope no one has problems after eating... think elaine was quite happy we celebrated for her.. and yah.. we TOOK loads of photos.. and loads of video today... cant wait to get my hands on them.... hahaa...

This is week 8

total there's 13 weeks of lessons... this means majority of the semester is gone.. and i feel like i have successfully GHOST past it... i managed to survive so far without any get failures.. but.. HOW the hell will i survive the final exam?? a miracle??? this is the time of the semester when i think i should find a religion.. or maybe practise some black magic... hahaa...

Get more for less

Ask for less and you will get more...

If you are less demanding, you find you have gain more than you asked for.. If you ask for too much to be done, it simply reduces your speed and nothing gets done... take one simple task at a time.. stay happy and live easy... :)

This Feeling is new

This is the first time i feel betrayed by a lecturer... you ask him about how the project should be done.. he gives you tons of ideas... you work on it... do and suit his tastes... but when presentation comes... there's another bigger shot there.. who shoots down almost every aspect of the presentation... and that dumb lecturer just nods his head along.. BETRAYAL... BIG TIME... there goes my results...

This Is My Mid-Term Break

Mid-term break... this mean it's half way thru the sem already... loads of things/assignment/projects... and my engine is still cold...

Week 6

Week 6 is coming up... and that's basically HALF the semester gone!!! Deadlines are coming up!! and what have i done for the psat few weeks??? NOTHING!! Practically NOTHING!! although not physically nothing... but the academic value adds up to ZERO!! A big fat ZERO!! I dragged myself to school early today... managed to reach here around 830am.. and since then.. i've completed a short PPT presentation for Eng Professionalism tut.. and that's all for now.. i'm drained... already...

last week is slightly more eventful... attended one of my airforce colleague's wedding.. it felt great initially to be meeting up with them.. but after awhile i felt i have lost touch with the way they behave, talk and think... And i realised most of them are leaving the force already.. something that i was trying so hard to get into, they were all trying to get out.. they say i was lucky to not be inside doing crap like they are.. but i feel i could have made a difference... too bad i wasnt there...

finally watched Ratatouille last week... it's a nice cartoon with a simple plot.. but the graphics.. WOAH... close to reality... it's simply stunning... further more i watched it at GVMax.. huge screen.. superb resolution... the only problem was the freezing cold temperature... BBbbrrrrRRrr...

also caught the lastest Sandra Bullock movie.. quite disappointing actually.. the plot became alittle too obvious in the middle of the show.. and the ending was... unexpected.. but unexpected wasnt good in the case.. i would prefer it to be the expected ending... i feel the show has some sort of religious linkage to it.. but i wasnt religious enough to understand it... :P

NUS Week 5, here I come...

Blogging has once again deteriorated to a once a week activity... i see 2 reasons...

1. I'm too lazy
2. No one's bugging me to do more often anyway

last week hasnt been any much better than the week before.. but as usual i still like my MNO class loads.. MNO is basically a very fun class.. so so so much more fun than all the technical crap in engine.. damn!! i really hate wat i'm studying.. aarrgghh... but it's my choice.. so i'll stick with it..

MNO highlights included 2 tutorials this week, one's the usual one on tuesdays.. the other is an extra lesson on saturdays.. called BAFA BAFA.. we played a game.. which was actually quite interesting.. first we learn some simple rules of our society.. den start on it.. the we start interacting with another tutorial group which has totally difference rules of games.. this kindda mimics a persons emmersion into another society.. you get the same kindda of lost of directions, you get the same cluelessness.. but you'll also start understanding what happens after a while.. even though you totally dun speak their language.. it's really quite a fun yet meaningful game...

watched evan almighty this week.. it's MUCH nicer in terms of plot and acting compared to Bruce Almight.. which is just a crappy show starring Jim Carrey.. and i really recommend watching this show... christians may not agree with wat i say.. but i think the show is nice... and funny... great entertainment... oh by the way.. i'm saying all this here because.. i'm going to end my movie addict blog.. cos it's rather tedious to maintain.. and their aint much viewership except for myself... so it's goodbye movieaddict.blogspot.com...

NUS Week 3 Over

3rd week was over in NUS, and still nothing much was achieved for myself.. got to know a few people in my MNO class.. missed many other classes... basically nothing much was achieved in school over the past week.. but i feel the ball is finally starting to roll.. so i hope things will start going on smoothly from now on...

friday was basically the highlight of the week.. going back to tj for homecoming dinner... met up with some 06 people.. and other tj frens.. too bad the turn-out for our batches not very good.. otherwise it shld be quite fun.. the current tj vice principal was my history teacher back in cchs.. and he still remembers me... which is pretty cool... i took quite a few pictures that night.. just follow the link on the left to check them out...

saturday went minds cafe with bingguang, jass, lihui, wanyang, yinglan, jingting & dear... basically, now i have a pretty bad impression of minds cafe.. pretty bad... the games are alrite, the food actually not bad... except when it came to mine.. my lasagne was frozen in the middle when they serve it to me.. no to mention mine only came after EVERYONE had finished their food.. super sad & pissed... so yah.. that's pretty much the last time i'll go minds cafe i guess... hahaa...

sunday had KTV at the NUS guild house at Suntec.. it's a pretty cool place.. the KTV facilities not bad.. i like the rooms much more than other KTVs outside.. their songs are piggybacked from the Kbox systems... but somehow less updated... but it's cheap and good... however, the membership to the place really quite ex... hahaa..

Week 4 has begun and it started off with labs.. 3 lab session in 2 weeks.. going to be a very very busy 2 week up ahead...

Bourne Ultimatum

Jason Bourne finally finds out his true Identity. This is the key focus of the film, after the past 2 prequels, this finally puts and end to the Jason Bourne Amnesia problem.. But there seems to be 2 more Novels after Bourne Ultimatum, which i doubt would be made into movies due to deviated storyline & plot... we shall see..

Continuing on the witty escapes and seemingly genius ways of killing and getting out of though situations, Bourne Ultimatum ties you down into your seat. Non-stop action from start to the end. Julia Stiles has a slightly longer role in this episode compared to the last 2, and she even hints of an affair with Bourne.. interesting.. too bad that was not built on in the show.. perhaps a basis for the next installment?

Classic Quote -
Noah Vosen: [in car, on cell phone] Perhaps we can arrange a meet.
Jason Bourne: Where are you now?
Noah Vosen: I'm sitting in my office.
Jason Bourne: I doubt that.
Noah Vosen: Why would you doubt that?
Jason Bourne: If you were in your office right now we'd be having this conversation face-to-face.
[Bourne hangs up]

License To Wed

A Reverend Frank (Robin Williams) puts an engaged couple, Sadie & Ben (Mandy Moore and John Krasinski) through a grueling marriage preparation course to see if they are meant to be married in his church. This is not just a typical romance flick, you add in Robin Williams, you get a HILARIOUS Romantic flick.

Basically i decided to watch this show because of Robin Williams, he's a great entertainer.

Classic Qoute -
Reverend Frank to Ben : So Ben, what have you been doing, besides little Sadie here.

I'm so Drained...

It's been a pretty busy week cos school is finally back in session... kindda hard getting back to the mentality of studying.. totally dread facing the books again.. though i haven bought any books this semester, the lecture notes are just as bad.. no matter how much i hate it.. i still have to go thru it.. sucky...

in the past week both the guys and gals vball teams from tj played their last match for the singapore open.. and the results for this whole tournament had been losses from start till the end.. it really sucks to play that badly.. but then again.. there's no one to blame cos we were lack of trainings...

It's GOING BACK TO SCHOOL for me...

The past week in NTU has been pretty easy.. compared to NUS, the crowd in NTU VERY VERY little.. den sales wasnt very high.. and i seriously think the "feng shui" of the booth quite bad... totally blocked from the view of the entrance... so yah.. sales werent very good... but the good thing is, this really leaves us with nothing much to do except to talk cock.. hahaa.. so yah.. quite fun also... but NUS still better... got more common ground to talk about....

The volleyball open is also drawing to a close for me soon... so we haven won a single game... due to the simple fact of lack of training... physcially and mentally totally not ready for such a competition.. so yah.. quite disappointing.. but no one to blame except myself..

So this is basically the end of all the fun and games and work i have for the past 3 months plus of holidays... it's been an enriching experience, this holiday... worked several part-time/temps.. made a bit of $$... gain loads of experience and frens too...

it's time for me to start checking NUSemail... start printing and reading notes... aarrgghhh...

anyway new photos taken during the NTU lenovo have been uploaded.. take a look...

NTU!!! Here i COME!!

First day of sales at NTU... not exactly wat i expected.. but not too bad.. there's quite a crowded even though i felt there wasnt much adverts being done for the roadshow.. BUT.. we din sell much... and NTU don't accept NETS payment.. at least NUS accepts NETS... so so dum.. hahaa.. den because of the system of ordering in NTU.. it's pretty hard to track how many sets you actually sold... so it din really matter... just help selling only... only 2 other fellow promoters from NUS are here in NTU... then there's quite a few new people... especially some with totally no experience or product training.. sianzZ... so i was actually one of the more experienced ones there.. wth...

still not feeling well... flu is still quite bad... breathing still difficult... wonder how to cope tml's work and vball match after that... oh well... one step at a time...

Rush Hour 3

3rd installment of the funny pair of Jackie Chan & Chris tucker... Fast Tongue... Fast moves... FULLL of funny crap... simple entertainment... not really the best plot you have on cinemas nowadays.. but seriously.. are you seriously looking for a DAMN good plot in Jackie Chan movies??? NO!! it's about the stunts and the jokes.. and the after show credits...

So Basically If you are a Jackie Chan Fan... watch.. if not.. unless you are bored and look some more simple laughs...

Jackie Chan & Chris Tucker Visiting the Martial Arts Centre...

Sniff Sniff!!

Laptop selling in NUS has ended.. Sales has been pretty good actually, and got quite a fair some of $$ from it too... so i'm quite happy with it...

National Day just felt like any other day... no special feeling at all.. feels kindda sad rite?? not enough hype in the event... not enough involvement by the people... mainly cos too much non-locals locally...

Ask some vball ppl over for steamboat on friday... quite a few din turn up... so there's only 6 of us... but i think we still had quite a good time.. got quite a bit of food left over though.. hahaa..

anyway... i wasnt feeling well the past few days... first it was very very bad sore throat... loads of phlegm... den finally i got rid of the phlegm.. came flu... nose totally blocked.... feeling cold... and weak... totally played like shit during the match against Hew Rockets just now... sucks....

sniff.. snifff....

Secret - 不能说的秘密

Jay Chou's latest involvement in the movie industry. It's a romantic love story, with the usual corniness which made him so unique. It's a movie with Jay Chou written all over, it seriously seems like Jay is fulfilling some childhood fantasy of his in this movie. It just made him look damn good... But!! This is a good movie to watch, the romantic essence of the movie will just make you go "aawwwww"..

Perfect Stranger

A suspense thriller with a huge twist in the show. From the start till almost the end, you'll guess who's the bad guy and who's the victim... as you go on.. you realise evidence pops up refuting your previous argument..

It's a very intriguing plot... it keeps you locked into the storyline... you want to solve the case... and yet everytime u take a step forward you realise you are going in circles... the ending is just simply unexpected...

Great acting from Bruce Willis & Halle Berry, really kept the suspense going on throughout the whole show..
