Hmm.. I guess the Edition 9 will have to wait for at least a couple of years.. The MSPro is doing its job well for rock!

Ok, enough about this insane hobby.

The weekend was fully packed with me out for more than 12 hours.

Here's a quick summary of the weekend -

Saturday -
Sam camp family day
Novena
Jon's place for revision and dinner
Jaben

Sunday -
Accounting lesson
Hang out with classmates
Jaben

Upon reaching home early sunday morning, i was shivering while i was taking my shower before going to bed and NO, its not because that the water was cold, but, because i was so damn shagged. Never experienced this before la lol.

I'm actually damm shagged now also, but i didn't use the com enough over the weekend so its payback time =x

Although it was a fully packed weekend, it was damm enjoyable and come to think of it, fulfilling.

Was talking to Winnie online and she recently got her hair extended and suddenly thought of a 'revolutionary' idea WAHHA!

Remember during our younger years, where you would see teenagers with really long sideburns and be able to curl it round their ears? YES? LET'S BRING IT BACK. MUAHAHA!

How about wearing tight and bright Badz Badz Maru T-shirts?

How about carry long wallets with a long metal plate and dragon designs on it?

OR

How about sharpening your long comb and sticking it in-between your long wallets?

AND to top it off

How about those gigantic baggy FUBU jeans with humongous pockets that can fit the long wallet and comb in perfectly?

I KNOW I KNOW!

How about slinging a pouch across your shoulder? WAHHAHAHA I just suddenly thought of that.

Nostalgic right?

London cigarettes burn too quickly.

--

Paramore rocks.

Flyleaf's not too bad either, but is depressing to start the day off.

--

ANJADI, if you're ever reading this, where shall we go for our next meal that neither one of us has never tasted before!!

--

Rocky, you seem like a sleep deprived dog with you sleeping like at least 18 hours a day.

--

Ok, i think i'm beginning to really feel the effects of the long weekend that i'm even talking to my dog on my blog.

I don't feel like ending off though.

So.. Read on if you haven't got bored yet.

--

Lecture tomorrow.. Seriously, this module is damn heavy. I really hope all of us can pass this one.

--

Ok, i feel i can end off now.

Enjoy the week ahead my friends..

OHH, i suddenly thought of a couple of situations where i said a phrase to my friends last time.

1) I can only remember vaguely why i said this to my friend, Keat Ming. I think we were talking about pick up lines or stuff to say to your other half.. I think i came up with this - 'I wish my hands could go through walls, so i can touch your heart.'

2) Rachel was talking about sms conversations and i can't remember what specific subject we were on but what came out was this - 'How can you fit a conversation into 160 characters?'

I must go for the next IT fair!! Even though i really don't have anything i need. Go there and chou re nao!

Was talking about IT fairs with my uncle and we agreed that 1 IT fair in a year is actually sufficient enough if you really need the basic stuff. Wah, got tv la, lcd monitor, printer, mouse, keyboard, laptop, MP3 player, camera, dirt cheap memory cards, external hard drives, speakers and the other miscellanuos stuff.

Yea, wheres the CPU? Just go Sim Lim Square and build one before the IT fair starts or after getting your peripherals from the IT fair.

I think 4 is really overkill. BUT, its fun! So i'm not complaining. I'm only complaining about the lack of cash to spend =x

--

Ok, its 3.40am now and i think i probably blogged for an hour.

A long overdue goodnight.

Stay well friends..
