Kmart river cruise

i went to a river cruise at fremantle yesterday. It was organised by
kmart and i only found out that i was going on friday. It took a while
for me to get there. i thought that i would be really late because i
couldn't find the entry for the wharf. When i did make it into the
wharf i found out that it was the wrong one and had to ask for
directions. i asked some guy packing his bicycle onto his car and was
told that the rottnest ferry wharf number 18 was about a few kms away.
Anyways i got there in time to see my kmart friend Leon with 3 very
intoxicated girls. Later i found out that one of them was my sister's
friend's littlest sister and the other was the sister of my highschool
friend. Such a small world. i had a good time. Lots of dancing,
music and looking at the water, and the city lights. Later i took
Leon and the girls to maccas where we chilled for a while before
taking them home. Today i watched The Bourne Identity and Bourne
Supremecy. The movies were quite good. The hero dude was really cool
coz he could get to anyone and could anticipate how things would turn
out. He also has some kick ass moves and takes down people with his
bare hands in a couple of seconds. Now i have to study for my
interview tomorrow. i may have to cancel a centrelink appointment
because of it. Grrr things aren't slotting into the correct
timetable.

Car troubles

There was a big problem with the car yesterday. The oil light came
on, even though i made sure that the engine always had sufficient oil.
It means that the oil isn't flowing through to the engine which is
really really bad. i don't think the mechanics that service the car
have changed the oil even though they said they did. (Or at least
thats what my dad told me). The reason for this is because the oil
seems like a really dark colour. Right now its parked in the driveway
until we and the mechanics can fit in a time for servicing. i really
don't trust the mechanics but my dad does. Hopefully it won't cost
too much. i really hope the engine isn't damaged much.

Hilltop Hoods LIVE!

Had a MASSIVE day yesterday. Went to Ben's house to check out his new
computer fan and also grab some anime. Spent quite a while watching
games and vids and stuff and his dad told me to eat KFC for dinner. i
had a few pieces and had a zinger burger and felt kinda cheap LOL.
When i went home i watched a bit of TV and then found out from my bro
that Daniel was trying to contact me. And then i remembered that we
were supposed to go clubbing for some girl's 21st. So in about 30
mins i got ready and was on the way to metros. We had free tickets to
the special function room upstaris coz 'we' or rather Daniel and his
bro knew the girl. We were told that normal metros entry cost rose
from 10 to 45 and then 70 later one in the night. It was coz Hilltop
Hoods were performing live there. The queuing line grew to a
phenomenal size but we went in through the front coz we had VIP ENTRY.
MUAHAHHA. Had a couple of drinks, sushi and unfortunately had a pretty
close view of a male stripper. We knew that a stripper was coming and
we thought we were safe on the upstairs balcony where it was kinda in
the public because people from the street can see in a bit. Thats also
what the birthday girl thought apparently as she tried to escape from
him and rushed to balcony (where unfortunately for her and for us
guys) was a dead end. It was all in good fun, even though the birthday
girl wouldn't cooperate as much as her friends woulda liked.
Afterwards we went downstairs to the main club where Hilltop Hoods was
performing. They were awesome. When we left, Daniel and his bro
decided to go to Chinatown to try out some mudcrab at Billy Lees. So
we all had mudcrab and fried squid and springrolls. The price was
kinda crazy though, but Daniel's bro decided to pay it all. I kinda
felt cheap again, coz it was the second time that i was getting food
from my friends. Anyways i went home around 2 or 3 in the morning and
crashed till 11 in the morning today.

Tomb Raider Legend

I just found out about Tomb Raider Legend. Wow, there's been a lot of Lara Croft Tomb Raider games. The only Tomb Raider i've ever completed was Tomb Raider 2. i didn't manage to complete Tomb Raider 3. That was the good old days. When i first got the playstation, Tomb Raider 2 was my first game. In fact it was my only game on the playstation for quite a while. The graphics (then) were mind blowing. Not only can i move left and right, but i can see and move up and down. It was probably my first 3D experience. Surprisingly i didn't pay much to Lara's boobs then. Its kinda strange coz i think i was well into puberty then. It must of been because i was too stunned by the 3D graphics. Or maybe because her boobs were way too large to be any real. Or maybe it was the fact that i was more into using her to shoot things. A lot of the games i played before the playstation were platform shoot'em up games. Anyways i looked into the storyline of Tomb Raider Legend and it seemed really interesting. Some forums even say that the game explains why Lara became a Tomb Raider. Anyways Tomb Raider Legend seems more realistic, Lara's boobs are smaller, she looks better, the resolution and quality of Lara and her environment seems more real. Yeah, she is hotter than ever. Maybe i'll get this game once i get my super computer.

Wishlist

i've always wanted to build a computer for MYSELF. My very own
computer. i need to save up about 5000 bucks. Its gonna have a really
good motherboard, a really good cpu, really good DDR2 ram, and a
massive fan.

So far i want to get a Aw8-max motherboard (LGA 775). Still drooling
over it. And for the CPU, i want a Intel Pentium Processor Extreme
Edition 965. Its a dual core chip so it has a 2x2MB cache, 3.73 Ghz,
and 1066FSB. Maybe one day i'll fill it up with 8Gb of ddr2 ram, and
put in the lastest most pyscho uber graphics card ever. Sigh...

Meet Wiffle

WiffleOk, so i got hooked on an item called Eggflips. Maybe its their spikey hair, or their plumplish figure, or maybe its their humongous eyes. Whatever it was, it had a very high cuteness factor. Theres about 25 different eggflips. When u buy one u don't know what u will get because u have to turn it inside out literally to make it like that cute little thing u see in this pic. Otherwise it just looks like a plain single color egg shape thing. Supposedly there is only 5 golden eggflips and if u get that one u instantly win 1000 bucks. There's also larger ones but they are already flipped out and you can't win 1000 bucks from them and they only come in 4 patterns. Also they all come scented. =) Anyways the eggflip i got is Wiffle! He's in the Ultra Rare category. Not as rare as the golden one but in the second rarest category then. Lucky i didn't get the pink one. i'm happy with Wiffle's pattern. It matches the colour of the car.

Music reflections

final fantasy 8 - eyes on me. Long bus rides to Murdoch uni, Rockingham campus. 2002.
Neon Genesis Evangelion - Come Sweet Death. Reading Ranma comics. November 2002.
Rikki - Suteki dane. Working at Palm tree cafe. 2003.
Otoha - Ichibyo no refrain. Bus rides to uni, murdoch campus. 2nd semester 2003
Fiction Junction featuring YUUKA - Akatsuki no Kuruma(Dawn's Carriage). Doing Oracle pracs on weekends at uni. 1st semster 2004

These are some of songs that got stuck in my head through my uni years. All of them were heard during times where it was very silent and i was alone and bored out of my mind. When i hear them, it always reminds me of the real boring quiet times i had. However in 2005, while doing the project in first semester i started listening to more radio music and in 2nd semester started listening to songs my friends listened to which included AFI, Rise Against, Offsring, and others. Nowadays i guess i'm listening to radio music again.

Have decided

Have decided to tell my grandpa that its all fixed. It may be a bit
selfish but i weighed the pros and cons. He has to know that i can't
always drop everything to help him. i need time at this stage of my
life to start looking for work and making a career. If the computer
has the net cut off, all he has to do is reboot and try again. i have
to think of myself a bit more and stand up for my own decisions which
i think is right. This allows me to be responsible for my integrity
on doing things of my own accord instead of other people telling me to
do things. i can't always be passive all the time or people will start
taking advantage of me. Anyways i don't like the way my grandpa acts
sometimes. He sometimes scolds unreasonably at my grandma and
sometimes swears as in "F%&* @#%" to my cousins who live with him in
front of my face. i know that i should respect my elders but sadly
sometimes that can't happen. My parents tell me to do what he says
all the time or "he might talk bad about me behind my back". i
personally don't care what bad stuff people say behind my back because
thats all they can do. The people who are stupid enough to believe
gossip deserve to be stupid and deserve to fear what other people can
gossip about themselves. Gonna be MY day today.

Need my own time

i got some stuffs to do but my grandpa wants his comp fixed perfectly.
i dunno how its working now. Shop said that it works fine now, but
i'm not so sure. It sometimes says that it is not connected to the
wireless network and still the internet works. Sometimes it does
disconnect. i got my grandpa using the comp that is connected
wirelessly to the router. He's reading some chinese newspapers online.
i thought he knew how to use a comp but it seems like i was wrong.
He told me to do the search for him. i wonder how he uses the net?!?
Probably gets my cousins who live with him to search for him. He just
reads and clicks on any chinese hyperlink. Things that popup, he
pushes OK to get rid of them. i dunno how to tell him that its bad to
do that all the time. Some webpages put hyperlinks on images that look
like windows popups and he can't tell the difference. i dunno if i
should take it back to the shop or pretend that its all working ok. i
need time of my own. Gotta look for jobs and gotta work tonight. i
can't always drop everything just to help him and i don't want him
bugging me all the time. Dilemma.

Wireless connection

Been pretty busy lately. Trying to get my grandpa's comp working
wirelessly with another comp that has a wireless card then gave up on
that. We bought a new wireless router and tried to get it working
with that. It kinda works. The Internet works even though sometimes
it shouldn't be. =S And sometimes it does disconnect so i dunno. Its
getting fixed at the shop today. Dunno when they're gonna be done with
it. i got 3 days a week a Kmart now. Extra $$$ is good. i've been
doing a lot of cleaning lately. Cleaned my room, cleaned my email
inbox and cleaned the car. Busy as always.
