Letters to my future self

25th oct - by our powers combined....

haha, a show of hands how many ppl felt that title farmilar.

was in a dungeon the other day, part of the dungeon requires a few party members to touch a altar of some sort to open a door. when the members touch the altar they glow for awhile before the event triggers... and so while 'glowing' and waiting for the event to happen, thats what i typed in the chat window "by our powers combined..."

and the next thing i know from 2 different persons are the following replies:

singaporean - "earth."
american - "man, i've always felt bad for the heart kid"
me - on the floor laughing

ran a quick search on wikipedia, it turns out that the official website for captain planet is still very much alive and it seems that there is a newer series called the new adventures of captain planet and the planeteers. and btw, the correct phrase is "by your powers combined, ... blah blah blah" as opposed to 'our powers' when i mentioned it in the chat

man, cartoon reach out to everyone, regardless of nationality, thou i have to say, for a moment i was taken aback by the american's response. firstly, i wasnt aware that they showed it in america (thou it made sense now, since its probably 'made in america' anyway) secondly, his age probably isnt very far from our age.

heh

7th oct - updates

- am accepted in Griffith, but its not for certain that i'll be going over... yet

- recieved some slightly upsetting news recently, so its over even before it started. =(

- time to watch my diet. am shorter, but heavier then bernie (OMG). time to go vegetarian or not eat at all.

- security alarms are stupid.

- card gaming is very expensive, for some reason i've only discovered it now. should seriously consider giving it up, good idea to recover some cash anyway?

-bah.

4th oct - no room for failures and rejects

been thinking alot about the 'future' recently. not that there's much to think about really, looks pretty bleak to me.

the study abroad option is once again open for discussion.

sometimes i wonder if the gahmen has some kind of 'destiny plan' like in gundam seed destiny. primary 1-6, sec 1-4, jc1-2, ns 2.5 yrs. if it all works out well, you'll be 21 when you enter university. find a girlfriend, get a job, get married and have kids.

well whatever this freaking plan is, i'm not part of it and this plan has no room for failures and rejects. pfft.

considered sticking to a full time job as of now, but no it doesnt work. pay's cool but no prospects. its not a kind of pay that i can forsee myself being able to buy a roof over my head.

vexing, very.

less depressing news:
-read the 1st 13 vols of strangers in paradise, interesting story.
-someone made an offer on my sandman statue.

3rd oct - taking a breather

my my, been neglecting this blog for quite a while. been quite busy of late. full time work has offocially commenced. any off work time is spent on world of warcraft, its been nearly a month since i started, lvl 32 now. =)

work wise everything is fine, getting randomly disturb, but all in good nature, no offense taken, plenty of fun. but it looks like i have alot more to learn, especially after spending the day yesterday at serene. apparently there are various customer levels... hmm... ok

gaming wise like i've mentioned, i'm lvl 32 now, but long been taken over by a few who started the game later then i did. still trying to find enough people to form a guild, its an uphill task, since i dont always see everyone online, although in theory we have enough people to for a guild. for now, the charter is just basically wasting 1 inventory slot in my bags. *frowns*

social life is officially dead, everyone apart from mel is overseas, adrian is and will be stuck at home for at least another month and theres world of warcraft. there is this gal however working at the lanshop in cine thats keeping me from staying entirely at home (which is actually a financally sound plan, since i save on food, drinks and transport). however being the coward that i am, it will probably be another 6 months even before i can manage to even go over and say 'hi', either that or i give up ><". meanwhile added incentive for playing wow at the lanshop (even though the interface at home is customised and better and i actually dont have to pay to play at home), i still feel the impulse to go there and play anyway =P

alright, back to gaming
