So, now I'm free!!

So free. Like a boulder off my shoulders, I'm free....

Hahah, saying like i'm getting holidays already, but it just feels like it.
I'm gonna play finish my Final Fantasy XII which i started 2 years ago and have not finished.
I'm gonna play all the Dunne 2000 i can stomach. I'm gonna buy back my Heroes of Might and Magic 3 and play till my eyes pop out.

Then I'm gonna complete my Resi Evil 4 on Pro mode which I'm halfway through but too scared to continue cos I'm at the waste disposal area.
Waste Disposal area means the Regenerator area. And although i've beaten the game 3 times already I'm just too scared of fighting a pro-mode regenerator. 
But i will, just you see Capcom.

Also, i went out with shan to watch the Dark Knight (what? still in cinemas?).
It was so so awesome. Just blew my brains out with sheer awesomeness and bombastic craziness. Love it love it love it!



The next day i went out with Miss oink and Miss greentea to have a dimsum buffet!
Awesome! Dim sum is one of those stupidly expensive bits of food alongside sushi and hagen daz ice-creams.




So a dimsum buffet was awesomeness in entirety. We ate till we burst then went off to watch the Mummy3 which deserve every single bit of its score in Rotten Tomatoes but was so much dumb fun it was worth its $7.

So.... yeah..... have fun!

Damn busy.
It's busy enough to kill a bee.
But if you look at it from a certain angle, it looks like a honey-comb. All wrinkly and gooey and nauseatingly sweet.
Actually, time feels too squashed and if i were superman, i'd kill the clock and i really don know what i'm talking about cos it's definitely the busy-ness and it's as crazy as a sandwitch under a steamroller.


Bon apetit. Send me to Mars on a jet.

I hate maths.

I hate it because it reminds me of times long forgotten when my dad would grill me on algebra with a cane.
He never could understand why i took so long to digest why the brackets should be solved first before multiplication.
He's such an algebra freak he started to use algebra to teach me problem sums in Pri 3 and i don even know why the heck X does not have a secific value or that X and Y are different but they seem the same to me cos they are all alphabets and come right after each other.

In secondary school, i took A maths and hated the hell outta dy dx.
I hated chemistry only because they had mole calculation.
I absolutely hated physics.

I hate solving sudoku and i hate chess and i hate even looking at the weather forecast cos they remind me of my dad.

Why why why then am i typing lines after lines after miserable lines of miserable mathematical codes and logic based equations and all that crap i tried to run away from?
Why oh why did our teachers lie to us when they say the technical part is not important when the technical parts are what define our lives as IM students?

This is one big conspiracy up there.
I dunno what to think anymore, my brain is all powder from thinking too much.
I want to rob banks when i grow up. So i wont ever have to script anymore. Then i'll go away on an island where i can live my life on coconuts and sandy beach.

Kate Nash's songs make me happy :)

Growing fat- 20%

Did i mention sleeping?- 10%
Other miscellaneous activities- 7%

If you drew a pie chart, that's time well spent.
I love reading, so i'm going to tell you which are the books you absolutely must read in this lifetime!

1) Riptide Douglas preston & Lincoln child

This is one of the most awesome thrillers i've read. The plot and scientific explanations behind it are just mind-blowing. Riptide makes you think that the situation and mysteries surrounding Ragged island are truely supernatural before bashing you with a revelation that's not only believable but wildly fantastic.
No cookie-cutter plot here. It's so good it borders on being terrifying.

2) Killing Floor Lee Child

Gore. Blood. More gore. You can almost see the claret flying all over the place in this. The main character is really cool. Cooler than Alex Cross by a continent. Cooler than Neo or Justin Timberlake. Or any damn person you can think of.

3) Life of Pi Yann MartelKilling Floor is brutal and sadistic in a loud way while Life of Pi is brutal and sadistic in a way so subtle the only way you'd realise how sinister the plot is is after you've read to the last page and ruminated on it like a cow.
How can a book about a boy in a boat with a zebra, a hyena, an orang utan and a bengal tiger be any sinister?
It is. And it's a great book.

4) Road to Perdition Max Allen CollinsIt's a graphic novel. Nope, it doesn't have whiny teens with incredible eye-sizes, ridiculous outfits or hairdos bigger than Amy Winehouse's. Or robots shooting rockets out of their knees. This is a tale about a father, a son, a cute car and buckets of bloody revenge.
Moving, gritty, tragic and wonderfully good.

5) Assassin's Apprentice Robin Hobb
My favourite fantasy series. It's so humane it could almost be a history book. The book is brick thick and wordy and damnably hard to break into. Yet the pay-offs for perseverance are immense.
I've read a ton of fantasy books and this series is..... .... simply... ... the best. *chokes*. It's the best.

6) Vlad Taltos Series Steven BrustAssassin's Appentice is a soulful, heart-wrenching and philosophical whirlwind of emotions. The Vlad Taltos series is just great fun! Fantasy books aren't really fun in the first place. Moody and filled to the brim with old men in beards. This series manages to be eccentric and ridiculously entertaining.

Yup, go read these books now!
As you can see, I'm an exclusive fantasy and thriller reader. No other genre sully my eyes.
So, if you're the kind who loves romance or drama or, god-forbid, biographies, you might find these books utterly unattractive. So forget all that i've written and carry on reading your Nora Robert or whatever.
