Summer Star, why are you lost?
(You are) searching for we who disappeared.
That’s why I have such sad dreams.

~Song taken from Naruto, Episode 180

This is one of my favourite songs currently. First heard it in Grey’s Anatomy, Season 1 Episode 6.

When it doesn’t rain, it snows
Yeah, the cookie crumbles but in who’s hand?
All things said and all things done
Life is short

I’ve just made a new discovery. Get a blue ball pen. It doesn’t matter what brand it is. Wet the tip and then smell it. Smell anything familiar?

Lesson of the day:

Work for the government. Reason? Your medical expenses are well taken care of. Now and until the day you meet your Maker.

Not so much of patriotism, really. You’ll either die of old age (this is getting rare nowadays as a result of our hectic lifestyle, bad social habits, improper diet, sedentary living and city pollutions) or sickness/injury one day and as we all know, medical expenses are on the increase following the improvement of modern medical management in terms of drugs, equipment, etc. Unless you’re born with a silver diamond spoon in your mouth, a key to the latest BMW in your hands and a family fortune that will last you for more than a lifetime, then you may need to sell of your every possession, mortgage your property or appear in local news to make a plea for financial aid to the public in order to settle your medical bills if you were to be inflicted with diseases like cancer. *TOUCHWOOD*

Think about it, it can be really difficult for someone out there just to stay alive. Nowadays, the poor can’t even afford to be ill. Yet the rich are spending their money in a ridiculous way just to satisfy their wants, upgrade their social status or to keep up with the Joneses. Who says the world is fair?

But then again, for those who agree with me - fear not… for there are angels around this world. I’ve seen some. God will find you.

I. Thou shalt backup, backup, BACKUP!

X. Thou shalt not curse at thy computer, when thy problem lies with its user.

Saw this at CHiQ’s and she got it from HERE…

Watched the movie, read the book.

The movie was so-so, rather short, I must say. There were quite some things I didn’t fully understand, and a couple of things left hanging. However, it wasn’t as bad as some reviews said it was. Perhaps it was because I haven’t read the book yet.

As for the book, I’d just finished reading it yesterday. The book was definitely better than the movie. I also realised that some parts of the movie didn’t quite follow the storyline in the book, though the modifications were subtle. However, a lot of things were explained in more detail, especially the meaning to all the terms, such as danna, mizuage, obi etc.

All in all, it was a nice love story, I guess…

This is something that doesn’t happen everyday…

I called upon a good friend of mine to help me buy a thumb drive with 256Mb storage space. A small, stylish one. He got me a PenDrive alright. Small, yeah. White but not stylish enough. However, I’m grinning from ear to ear coz it’s so cheap you wouldn’t believe it.

It’s price - RM80… for 512Mb storage!!!

Can you believe it? No, neither can I. The thing is that the salesman went to get him a new package after the deal was made. But he mistakenly gave my friend a 512Mb one instead of 256Mb.

Geez.. I know it’s sinful for me to be feeling so happy about this but then again…

Nyek nyek nyek :p

Nothing can beat watching the numbers change at the rate of a snail crossing the road.

ARGH!

Let me ask you a question : What does it mean by “clearing the table/desk”?

A - Return the book to its shelf, place the pens in the stationery container, throw unwanted papers into the rubbish bin, wash the used mug and send it back to the kitchen, etc… clear the desk/table till you can finally touch its surface with your bare hands and move them across from edge to edge.

B - Grab all the mess with your two hands, place them on the chair/bed/floor, use the table for what you need to do and finally transfer the former mess back to where it came from… the table OR leave it on the chair/bed/floor only to shift its place again when you need the chair/bed/floor.

C - ??? Never cleared a desk/table before.

Jel would go for B, I believe. Dad too. And I can’t understand why. It’s annoying when you’ve one or more type B at home coz you’d have no space to lay the dishes during mealtime, nowhere to sit and no place to walk from one end of the room to the other.

Geez…

Glad I haven’t come across type C if he/she even exists.

Hmm… Am I the odd one out to choose A?

Thanks to CN- I did this weird quiz too. Poor me…I better stop being so KPC, so that I will not end up in the wrong place at the wrong time.

You scored as Bomb. Your death will be by bombing. You will probably be an innocent bystander, not doing anything wrong and not a person who was targeted at, just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
