I don’t know why but Wordpress 2.7 makes me want to write blog posts.
Open house today was fun. A surprising number of people who were into IMD/MOI (as opposed to the supposed sheer quantity of interest VSC is supposed to attract, and by right).
Encountered generally nice people compared to the rest after their horror stories such as Potato’s ITE girl who got her finger slashed quite deep accidentally by her friend using a penknife.
There were also a rather large amount of guys enquiring about ADM. There were more guys than girls that approached me actually. Cool, that course is severely lacking in the testosterone department :D
Now, pictures.
Helium filled balloons with wishes written on them, set free to the skylight.

TP Design just launched a new microsite done by seniors from my course, in time with Open House 2009.
Must say I’m blown away by everything– the visuals, design, the experience, the UI. I can’t spot a single glaring mistake (this is very rare) and I am damn impressed and damn fucking proud of the students who did it. I am very proud to be an IMD student in TP Design right now.

Something (a lot of things actually) is bugging and eating at me. I don’t know what it is but it’s really affecting me and how I’m around people. I can sense their impatience and annoyance sometimes. No I don’t have a knack to detect these things, it’s just painfully obvious. Hence it becomes an issue.
Some people write nice, abstract, vague little lines of literature, almost poetry but not quite so, when they are emotionally unstable and their brains feel like snapping in two. No, that’s a way to describe arms and legs and such, body parts of length. Whatever, I’m digressing. Now all that is left is the vagueness. I really can’t be bothered.
Scoff at this because it desperately screams “attention seeking whore”.
I write not because of that I guess for the reason of documenting life as I live it, read back maybe a year or so later, laugh at myself for being a silly little boy and smile.
Also as an upkeep to my proficiency in literacy of the language so it doesn’t drop to a point where I can barely manage a sentence without some sort of a reliance on filler, invalid words such as “lah”.
A post that is random and drives no point, and has no clear message.
What’s new, really.

There was this guy today, wearing the transparent Club Marc jacket that I wanted to buy, but in white; shrieking and cat walking through the canteen, stopping at the drinks stall. You could see the heads all turning to look at him as he did his little parade across the stall fronts. He said Hi to my friend who he completely does not know, chatted him up a bit and then left.

Envy—
An emotion that “occurs when a person lacks another’s superior quality, achievement, or possession and either desires it or wishes that the other lacked it.
A total surprise when the kiss and message arrived. Faint recollection of seeing a kiss from you before, did I return it? I forget, but sorry for not reciprocating it then if I didn’t. For the pictures you have don’t represent you very well, you’re much, much better in person. So much that I was thrown off and didn’t for a minute even think that you possibly could ever be interested…
That is if you are. The reluctance and absence of returned messages even though you’re the one who initiated, which leads me to start thinking, maybe I’m not replying with enough wit, or maybe I’m just boring. The presence of a much hotter, sought after character that is after you throws me off a bit; why don’t you want him?
So many questions makes me have doubt. I guess when I’m afraid to lose something, I over think, over plan and over do everything. The what ifs start arriving.
I won’t deny I’m anticipating what is about to happen, though. That is, if it does— would you reply to my last text message already?

If I say that I wrote this song for you, would you believe me?
It might not be as well-written or beautiful like other songs…
I want you to know that a love song cannot be written if you’re not in love.
But for you, I can write this song so easily.
You might have heard of hundreds & throusands of love songs.
They might be meaningful, but their meanings are for anyone.
And when you listen to this song, it is only written for you.
If you understand the meaning, our hearts will be together forever.”

Many PC makers are content to source all their components from one vendor, and Intel is obviously happy to bundle all of its components together under a brand name that suggests to consumers that “Centrino” is a feature they need. However, Apple has historically always selected the best parts available for its desired design goals. Last year, that meant skipping Intel’s WiFi chip. In the year since, Apple has been plagued with reports of problems related to MacBook graphics, forcing the company to rethink its use of Intel’s relatively uninspiring integrated graphics options.
Add in the fact that NVIDIA could offer a replacement northbridge/southbridge controller in one chip combined with far better integrated graphics performance, and it’s no wonder why Apple dropped Intel’s 2008 Montevina Centrino platform entirely for its new generation of MacBooks.

I’m angry.
The new Macbook is everything I wanted when I decided to switch a few years back.
The new MacBook is really a 13″ MacBook Pro. It uses the same design, and same manufacturing quality. Bridging the gap between consumer and professional model.
Weighing at 2kg, it’s light, thanks to the new aluminum unibody build. Even my current Macbook Pro weighs 0.5kg more and trust me, 500g makes a lot of a difference.
One of the reasons why I initially went with a Macbook is because of its size, I’d much rather have a 13″ than a 15″ because to me, a portable is exactly what it is: it’s a portable. I want to be able to carry it around without it adding a lot to the total weight I have to carry.
Also because of the fact that I want to carry it around everywhere, it’s bound to take a lot of punishment and abuse to the frame. My MBP has held up really, really well, I think if I didn’t throw in the original plastic Macbook I had for a MBP, there would have been severe cracks and everything by now. Actually it’s a miracle my MBP has survived thus far without any damage to its frame and body. I keep it in my backpack and it gets thrown around a lot. I used to fall on my back with the backpack, essentially crushing it.
Another reason why I upgraded to a MBP is because I couldn’t put up with the mediocre graphics performance any longer.
The new unibody takes care of weight issue, and the durability issue. The fact that the Macbook has a GeForce 9400 in it takes care of the graphic performance issue as well.
Ugh, if only I waited two years.

- The reason why I don’t bare my feelings is because once I do that, they are at the risk of being trampled over. No wait, they always get trampled over because you get off by crushing other people.
- You choose your drug. I won’t judge… I still think it’s pretty blind of you to not realize I risk so much by telling you this because it’s the cold hard truth he can’t run away from…
- Funny, I used to be able to drop tears at the slightest bit of hurt… now it’s just a void.
- I hate to ask you this but who do you really believe at this point? I can swear I’ve not told a single lie to you and will not even though the consequences are great.
- And if you could delete everything I sent you…
- When You Were Young. I wanted to find and go back to my original hopes and dreams, remember what I was and what I hoped for to find because everything morphed me into one cynical bitch.

If you’re trying to turn me into someone else
It’s easy to see I’m not down with that

Go ahead and try
I’m still sorta sad I didn’t get to see Avril Lavigne when she was here last month.
“He is a difficult child you know.” I was somewhat surprised as I heard this. “Tantrums and such. It doesn’t seem that way right? He’s only passive around me.”
Not just you, the thought runs through my head. It’s around everyone else I’ve seen him around with, the crowd. The defiant character in him emerges only when he’s behind the safety of not being physically present. I saw a mirror image of myself, a younger me, in him. Which I suspect was what made me go out of my way to reach out to him even though it really wasn’t appropriate for me to do so.
I shan’t forget that fateful night of when those mean words were first spoken. Aren’t you humiliated? Those horrible denims, and those shoes.
Of those days where the both of us would be so broke, we’d talk over a mug of teh o halia in a run down coffee stall opposite Habourfront. Those were good times to be remembered.
Things will never be the same again.

Woofing down two packets of Koka (original stir fry) instant noodles in the dead of the night has become a routine. Yes Koka, the as advertised no MSG instacrap.
I feel like I need to reevaluate my life and goals and all that.
But right now all I can think of is buying those pretty clothes. Collage has shorts arranged according to length, how freaking awesome is that?
Sometimes I forget how beautiful my Macbook Pro is. It reminds me of how everything revolves around how beautiful something is. Would I have bought one of them PC laptops instead of the MBP? Maybe, if everything else within it outshines that of the MBP, but then again deep down inside I would have wished I had bought the MBP instead just because it is pretty. The same goes for men.
So what happens when you are manufactured as one of them boring, bland and plain ugly beige boxes? You’re just, doomed… like, sorry, it’s just how life works.
“It would have been easier to love you more
if you were better looking.”
One day, I am going to be one of them lean, toned men with perfect skin.
