I feel like blogging on my Broga hike which happened on Monday, but I'm too lazy...  Moreover, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 beckons for my attention.  Anyway...  the main topic for this post will be on the unique date.  Sure there are massive song requests on the radio waves and bla bla bla, but I decided to create my own list.

11 reasons why today's unique six-digit binary date, 11.11.11, will be remembered for a while yet:

1) China's celebrating singles day, since 1 symbolizes being single.
2) Also in China, engaged couples are rushing to get registered for marriage.
3) Pregnant Korean mothers are demanding for C-section so that their kids get born today.
4) The official end of World War I (which ended on 11.11 am on the 11th of November, 1918)
5) The hackers in Silicon Valley is naming today Nerd New Year due to the six-digit binary date and are organizing an all-day hackathon /party for charity.
6) The next six-digit binary date will fall 89 years from now at January 1, Year 2100.
7) If you put the date in binary coding, it will be the highest value (since "1" is the cap value)
8) Yu Liang getting fraped so badly that his sisters completely blocked him from Facebook.
9) Me attempting to preserve a chocolate bar, left overnight in the fridge, from melting for some 8 hours(and SUCCEEDING!)
10) Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is out!
11) The release of the dumbest, linear, stupid, childish, over-the-top goryness, cliched, Greek-mythology-insulting, biggest FU sign of all movies, "Immortals". Arguably THE WORST movie I've ever witnessed yet.

And have an awesome day :D

And this new Blogspot layout confuses me so!!  :/

We're An American Band -  Grand Funk Railroad

Smack

I'm getting obsessed again.  In retaliation, I gave myself a slap.  Not too hard to leave a mark, but not too soft to go unnoticed either.  Excuse the awkwardness.  You guys should know I'm like that since college life started.  Larger extremes: more extroverted AND more reserved at the same time...  

Okay.  That's all for now.  Goodnight.

So Close - Jon McLaughlin

Reveal

There's a few things I've learned in this week of fatigue-ridden college episode.

1. I get sad everytime I walk home in the rain.  Don't know why, just my newly discovered nature.

2. Power naps are to be used sparingly, not all the time.

3. We met again, "D" and I, if you still remember what I mean.  Otherwise, here's a reminder.  But since I was so busy with the Halloween booth and stuff at that time, I just waved and smiled.  At least she remembered me and smiled back.  At least.  And I still haven't gotten her name.  Teenage romance?  Oh, please don't be that...

Escapee - Architecture In Helsinki

Courage

For the 21874th time, sorry for not blogging.  I was either too busy violating (and abusing) my free time with FIFA 12 and Dues Ex: Human Revolution (which is shizz AWESOME) or finishing up the assignments I stockpiled all this while, and juggling the tensions of organizing an event with an absurdly demanding crowd.

*sigh* I hate it when I find myself in a position where I have to sigh.  It shows near intolerable levels of frustration.  But I'll soldier on, as I have been doing all my life.  Unfortunately, that means the inevitable outcome of not meeting some expectations.  I'll take the bullet for the team.

But I seem to be bereft of confidence lately...  Maybe it's the big odds placed against me.  Or it could just be me under-performing.  Well, sadly I've been in a mess lately.  Gotta get out of this slump soon.  I'm sure I will buck up.  Just need to push myself instead of someone else helping me. 

I need more courage.  And I'll drive myself to get some.  I must.

Let This Go - Paramore

Idiot

I just miss those times where I felt that I mattered.  At least, to someone.  Idiotic me.

Baby Blue - Dave Matthews Band

Blank

Sorry I haven't posted for a while!!  Another one of those "no incidents, no post" scenarios.

Had an interesting day at the Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary yesterday.  We got to feed some elephants as well as ride on them.  It was... scary yet fun (as all new things are).  Then we were supposed to bathe the baby elephants later that afternoon.  BUT they decided to take a leak and dump(s) in the river with the workers.  So that idea was (thankfully) scrapped.

So blah blah blah, everything ordinary about a trip.  Long hours in the bus, restlessness, and some snoozing.  Best of all, no report required.

And I'm having emotional conflicts again.  G-Dang it

Rumour Has It - Adele

Reborn

*pardon my lack of enthusiasm; imagine the hype displayed in this post by the factor of 10*

Had a fun time with Atia and Sab yesterday.  We went to The Curve at Mutiara Damansara.  We initially wanted to eat at Ikea's cafeteria but since it was Malaysia Day, a public holiday now, it was jammed packed.  So we settled for the always-healthy Subway.

We walked past Bubba Gump and at the entrance positioned 3 waiters.  EVERY ONE OF THEM greeted in the same matter: "Hey, ladies!".

Self esteem : -10 points

It seems when I hang out with girls, I'm collectively the gal too.  Not really complaining.  Nagging, perhaps.

Anyway...  it started raining heavily so Rakesh couldn't make it, since he lived some distance away.  So the three of us decided to watch a movie.  There weren't many shows to choose from, so we settled with Johnny English Reborn.  With front row seats.  I guess that's the bargain you make if you decide to buy the tickets just a minute before the movie starts.  It was a good movie, though.  Very funny.

Then once the movie ended, we went home.  Now that's what I love.  A simple get-together, no fusses, everything just comes across naturally.  Now why can't I have that more often?
