Heeey

Hey people! didn't post for a while. leaving nimalan to do two posts in a row. which SHOULDN'T happen as he doesn't post that often (not saying anything).

Anywayz, yah, trying to keep this blog alive. I just finished Avatar: the last airbender up to it's current episode in 4 days. lol! that took a looong while. Watched part of it on youtube. It's a pretty good anime for an american trying to b jap anime series. Very funny.

Also bought a new bag. FINALLY. I still use my old one though. Now i have a "math (a.k.a. calculus)" bag (the old bag), and a exercise science + biology bag (which is the new bag).
It better last a longish time since it cost 40ish dollars. Darn swiss bags... they're suppose to be good i think... but expensive. Doing everything i can rite now to try not to get it dirty. Of course it always starts that way until an accident happens and it gets dirty or i get too lazy and i give up. Rite now, i'm just NOT leaving it on the floor and if i need to (like for volleyball games) i'll put it on top of my coat. Still working out the convenience of things like where the pencils should b put for best effiency, or wht books go where and what stuff goes in what pocket. Yes... i love my new bag.

Mid-terms coming soon and i'm gonna die. Oh well... haha. anywayz, that about ends my post.

To do list...

Where is everyone? I seem to be the only person that ever comes back to this (well, the first person before everyone else falls back and gets out again). I guess its just how the last year of high school is on people. So bringing myself up to date, i got a new monitor. Now, thanks to my cousin's discount, i can work that desk space in front of the monitor. I can also watch high-def widescreen movies. well, i'm being kicked off... Sleep till i get this done during spare tomorrow:)

'Bout goddamned time!

Finally, after so many years, I finally got a damn music player. An 4GB Ipod Nano to boot to, a silver one. I considered the 8GB in the sleek black, but went against spending more money. I think I'm happy with my purchase, but only time will tell. I have a general rule, always try to get the 2nd Generation and up for any piece of hardware, there's usually a very substantial amount of improvement.

After finally setting up my ipod (I did it the first time with gary and jon beside me, with the cable only half pluged in), I got the ipod to work. Itunes was a "bitch", but once I got rid of all it's playlists and just made one that was my own, and added music to that, its all working fine. The screen is already smudged, but a wipe with my glasses cleaning cloth should do the trick (that cloth does miracles).

At the end of the day, although my sister questioned it as soon as she saw it, I'm fine with the 4gb model, and the fact that I saved 80 dollars. Did i mention that my parents agreed to pay for $100 of the cost? Certainly lets me buy that weight set.

P.S. - Got ripped off buying 500ml of Chocolate milk... $2.00...... A sin that even the devil would not dare to commit, but man has.

post a post

heey... went postless for a while there

hmm... what has been goin on... not much. planning to spend some money while i can still spend some lol. I am watchful for anything on sale.

I have a spare now! i think... i hafta check with guidance to see if they verified my dropped data course coz i need to concentrate on bio, calc, and exercise science just has a lot of things to memorize. I'd drop exercise science instead... but it's a useful course for me... and data isn't much fun... especially since i was suppose to haf a test tomorrow but now i get to SLEEP IN! during SCHOOL? that's just incredible. But i feel a bit left out now that everyone's at school while i'm at home or something. booo... oh well. Still getting used to it. I hope i don't slack off and work while everyone's at school. Most likely not gonna happen, but i'm still aiming for it.

University! man... dunno if i should stay behind a year or try to apply to a university. Don't know which uni to choose and need to find a scholarship that i can apply to. All these conditions... boo... oh wellz. That's all for now.

Its been a bit too long of a while

Well, I’m experimenting by making a post in Word 2007. Hopefully it works, and doesn’t crash, or something like that. So to catch up since my last post:

1) Got a job at Gala Travels Inc. as IT through Tropicana Job Agency where my cousin works

2) I work 35 hours a week and lost a lot of contact from friends

3) Worked 4 weeks and made about $1400

4) Work finished, on the first day of September (I actually started work on the first of August)

5) On labour day, went shopping with my cousin and spent $220 on clothes and lunch, the most money I’ve spent on myself at one time and also the first time I bought clothes in 2 years (yes, that’s how sad it is). I managed to finally get a Spring/Summer/Fall jacket after just using my 3-in-1 winter jacket since grade 8

6) Started school like everyone else, Geometry and Discreet Math (Al-Geo from now on), Chemistry, Physics and Engineering (Contemplating on dropping a very slow and currently very useless course as I no more than what they’ll teach, but it is an easy grade)

7) Finished off the worst week I’ve had academically – I knew everything I need to know perfectly but thorough my own procrastination

a. With a corrupted calculator screen, I did my math test (easy as hell as it was all from the homework) in twice the amount of time that it should have taken me and did not have time to complete one question

b. Handed in an incomplete Chemistry Lab because I procrastinated on doing as much of it at home, and ended up trying to do a complete lab write-up in half a period and lunch

c. Did not complete a physics quiz (lost 6 out of 25 marks) even though I knew my stuff completely, all because I was too cheap to buy a good calculator AND decided to do things the long and hard way (calculations instead of scale drawings)

d. Handed in an incomplete Chemistry Lab because I procrastinated on doing as much of it at home, and ended up trying to do a complete lab write-up in half a period and lunch

e. I didn’t follow instructions on a test (it was for engineering, just read all the questions first, and the last question is to just raise your hand and not do the test)

8) Went To STC with Gary, in search of new shoes (finally bought new black shoes a week before this post after I a rip in my shoes-so-small-they-hurt that caused my feet to flood and me come home with wrinkly feet with dry ankles) and me shopping around for gym equipment. I ended up with:

a. a brochure form Sears on the equipment they had

b. drinking 2 37 cent bottled pop with Gary and Walmart (Deepak – Kola Champagne and Mango drink, which is nasty, and Gary almost drank all of it until I dumped the last part out)

c. Walking around the mall so many times out legs hurt, forcing us to sit when we can (that, and the Mango drink tasted so bad it hurt my stomach, that’s what 37 cents gets your)

d. Walking outside of the mall, down to national sports, in search of more shoes (and a jacket for Gary)

e. To a not yet opened Winners

f. Then further north to Sheppard to Staples, where I finally bought a calculator… that can do quadratics for me

g. and back home, and after some research, deciding to relax on buying white shoes until a certain pair shows up on pickyourshoes.com (I wanna get good shoes online, cheaper then here in Canada)

So now that were caught up with what I can remember, I now have to worry about a lot of homework, a birthday party that I want to go to but can’t, finding that right gym set, and cutting my hair.

Oh, and sleep.

(It didn't work in word, so i just copied and pasted to blogger)

Boo.


School's work, work and work. Grade 12, yet still tries to slack off whenever I can.

Make or break time.


Boo.

daycamp 2006

I haven't posted in a looong time. So, what have i been up to? yes... kingdom hearts 2 was extremely addicting, but now it is over... no more for me unless i start living at jon's house. lol. I returned the famous ps2 that holds the memory card that holds my game haha. Now it's all up to jon's schedual that permits whether or not we can go over there and play.

For most of august until the last week, i'll b helping out at a daycamp... again. I'm pretty sure if u look bak on august 2005 and if there is... an august 2004 u'll see me posting about the same daycamp i've been helping at for 2 years. Yes, this is my third year. I am teaching gr.5/6's who are quite different from the gr.2's i've been looking after for the previous 2 years. Quite tiring and very fun for some parts. lol. Kids are koool, and very hard to control. Must find the proper technique and wield the awesome powers of child-control.

Post-birthday post

No cake.... thats not cool... i deserve cake.... don't need the candles.... just the cake.... mmmm.... cake......

Yeah... so Gary pulled my into KH2, and now that I've played it with him (after he finished the game in a week at lvl 60+), were at lvl 99 and just participating in in-game tournaments. It really is an addicting game... which i refuse to play through once because of it. That, and if i wanted decent cinematics, I'd watch....

Stealing

Posting this after I listened to Nelly Furtado's new song promiscuous girl on the radio.. It was pretty random, then out of a sudden I found out, one line from her song is actually mine. Well how?

Here's the story I guess, for a while during school. Me and my friends always talked in rhymes, and one day me and a friend had a friendly battle. It was more freestyle kind of rhyming thing.
During my turn, one of line was:

Hey is that really the truth or are you talkin trash,
because we all know your game ain't MVP like Steve Nash.

Well, the lyrics from nelly's song is this:
Hey is that the truth or are you talking trash Is your game M.V.P. like Steve Nash

Damn..
M&m

I'm still here...

More asylum, less assassin

Here at the asylum, we deal with all types of patients, including the new generation of "gaming addicts". Unfortunately, due to lack of interest and funding, we could care less about this group, so they're out on there own. I don't want the ps2 because I get frustrated playing Naruto with the language barrier (theres missions with conditions thats is so annoying to look up all the time), POT isn't fun if the characters have no significance, and after attempting to continue on where Jon left of in KH2 and getting far, i found how addicting it was but frustrating in not knowing how it started, so i quit without saving.

So now that i've left gary's eyes to bleed, his brain plagued with winnie the pooh and seven midgets, i can stay at home... or i would if i wasn't doing odd jobs with my dad....

calling for help

Hey! posting coz jonathan posted and i didn't want him to feel alone. So... 4ish days it's been already mr.ulaganathan. I hope that u do know that i'm waiting for u to call me for the ps2 rite? lol! i'm not calling u coz there's something called addiction. that's when i don't wanna part with it unless it's taken away from me by force. Calling me would be that force. Use the force nimalan! use it!

I've been playing kingdom hearts 2 for 30+ hours now. I'll just estimate it to be around 33 hours approx coz i forgot. Assuming i'd play for 24 hours a day for these past 4 days, it'd mean i woulda played for 96 hours. Now, if we slice that in half to account for the possible breakfast, lunch, dinner, sleep, and bathroom and drink breaks; u'd get 48 hours. Of course, the first day i got it wasn't really full, and i also didn't start playing it rite away (had to get the POT and Naruto urges out of the way first before embarking on something new). So u can clearly see how much time i've spent playing this game that i thought at first wouldn't be that addictive, but turned out is addictive. 34% of my 4 days spent on KH2; without the sleep, eat, and rest breaks it'd b 68%... and without the POT and Naruto urges, as well as the forced breaks where i force myself to take a walk outside... and volleyball on tuesday it'd prolly be 100%.

So... i dunno how long jon has played this game... but i already passed him... that's how long i've been playing all day. It's got me hooked. But no worries, i'm getting ahold of this power called addiction. I already plan to do 5 push-ups everytime there's a cinematic. It started with doing push-ups for the entire time the cinematics played... but that got REALLY tiring. And with ALL the cinematics i've been though, i gave up like... 5 cinematics after i pulled myself away from the controller. So, my arms are pretty tired... until tomorrow...when nim hopefully calls and takes the playstation2 away. (My heart aches everytime i force myself to tell nim to take it away... which makes this issue more urgent, take it away!!!)

Peace!

Very postless?

So right now i'm halfway through vacation, somewhere in a internet cafe in rome,italy. Keyboard is confusing, i cant get that "at" symbol so i have to copy it off someone who typed it before, and symbols are all in different places. Afraid to try any short cut commands because the last time i tried one, i posted after i finished the title.

So far, its been a week i think, iàm not even sure of the dates here any more, and dont see any posted in english. Been to a different part of italy almost every day, too much pasta or pizza (menu is composed 90% of it, they have to get sick of it sometime dont they) went to a chinese restraunt once though, iàve seen about two so far out of like 100 restraunts? they have to speak chinese,english and italian. at least they still sell a bowl of rice for 1 euro, everything is alot more expensive, euro to dollar rate is 1.5-1 so about 150% more expensive than in Canada. some of their subway trains are nicer, with a tv and scrolling advertisements. havent been on the buses though, most of them are half the length of a normal bus, since lanes are so much smaller here, motorbikes everywhere, and smart cars, iàve seen at least 50 of those so far, its soo convenient here because instead of parallel parking they can park perpedicular to the sidewalk and still be fine. Then theres a whole bunch of mercedes, bmws that are taxis, why? seen a couple of porches and ferarris as well... thats all for now

haha wow... it is postless... =P

I started using listerine... it's crazy fun to use... crazy painful... but i just get like... this adrenalin rush from using it... feels like i can do anything after using that thing... lol! took me 10ish minutes to figure out how to open the child-resistant listerine bottle... i'm a child at heart... who can blame me... lol! shut up everyone, i know ur answer.

postless,

nobody has posted in a long time...

Summer...

Is going exactly as i expected it to be... Not much exciting has passed so far, a few days doing this and a few days doing that... so much time on my hands that i dont reallly know what to do with it, so far i've got maybe 3 or 4 hours of work done, like 10 hours of tv, not enough sleep for the "summer", 2 hours for driving lessons, and enough time spent doing the things which would have taken too much time during the school year but serve a purpose in taking up the too much time i have now, and i started playing video games, or video game "kingdom hearts 2", that game has about a 3:1 ratio of cinematics/actual playing...

weather so far outside hasnt been bad except today... i go out it starts to rain(it was pretty bad, if you can hear the rain then it must be raining hard!), and as soon i get back it stops... on other days, it was nice enough that i could actually use my roller blades, and its quiet enough that i can skate without braking or slowing down all the time... i have yet to bring out my bike though, the whole once a year beginning of season pumping tire ritual has slowed it down...

what really bugs me is when other people who have jobs, making all that money, and it is alot, doing something useful with their time, but also it means one less person with available free time to share boredem with. No clue when i'll have time for a job, as next year apprently as quoted by a gr 12 who was talking about gr 12 courses, this one being chemistry "if you take this course and have a part time job... quit it".

And money, hopefully i have owed everyone back, i might still owe peter, remind me if i do. As i've found myself in quite a few situations where i needed to use more money than i predicted, wether it be owing back other people, spur of the moment spendings, hunger kicking in and a need to eat something somewat healthy...

hopefully my wallet can survive the summer.

So.... summer time is here, i don't got many plans during the rest of june and july... august i shall b completely booked unless u talk of saturdays and sundays. But yah... so far i haven't gone one day without going outside or hanging out with someone, which is good, lol, keeps me busy. My boredom will prolly start coming in during July... haha

So... extremely brief recap of my days after my last exam which was on Monday...

Tuesday: went to the beach for a birthday party...
Wednesday: Visited Tam coz principal was retiring...
Thursday: Watched X-men 3...
Friday: Went to Daniel's house...
Saturday: roamed all over downtown, walking for 8 hours... exhausting... but very fun with a day pass
Sunday:... haha, nothing much... just went to church...
Today:...

Ok, so today, yah... since it's today i won't do the brief thing. Today, basically... woke up at like 7:15... for some reason i hafta wake up earlier in the summer than when i haf school. Anywayz, yah, had to get somewhere near Leslie and Finch... that was somewhere near my destination in the morning. I was due there at 8:30a.m. So, my journey starts off at around 7:50, i witness the birchmount bus pass me... so i decide to walk all the way to warden for the warden bus. I witness the warden bus pass me... but luckily there was another bus behind it. So i take that bus, forget to take a transfer, so i end up paying another bus ticket for the finch bus to get to leslie. I get on the express bus which doesn't stop after Don Mills... i did not know that... so i ended up going all the way to Finch station. So eventually, i take the Finch East bus and go all the way to Bayview where my friend picked me up. I spent the whole day "working"... (sounds better) coz my friend's dad's company needed help with assembling trophies and packing them. So i spent 7-8 hours looking at golden trophies and bubble wrap. The bubble wrap was so fun to play with... but sooo tiring to cut and stuff.... oh man. It was fun though... and i got paid for it =D yay... i got paid... something that i'm not familiar with.
Then i went home... ate... took a nap that was longer than i hoped it would be. Went to a friend's house to watch a movie. We watched the phantom of the opera at his home theatre... when i same home theatre... i mean... home theatre... seats, screen, and all... lol! 'cept for the ushers... and the previews... which is unnecessary. Played some table tennis before, it was all good. All in all... had a fun day... hoping that the rest of my week be as fun-packed as the rest of my days were.

Still feeling like i'm upside down...

just got back from 'asian day' at wonderland. I really dont see whats so asian about it. There was some concert or somethign that we didnt go to at night but that was it, there was nothing around the day to show anything asian. The line ups... were not long, it was crowded in the streets/roads/pathway , but not in the actual lines. And wonderland isnt really cheap anyways. although it was only 30$ or so to get in, not sure how much cheaper it was, but everything there was expensive. first of all the go bus to get there was 4 something each way, combine that with a bus ticket and there goes 10$, then the food was like 5$ for a not so different hot dog. And that was already cheaper compared to the other stuff they had there. Then we spent some money on those imposible games, watching us and other people fail for the most part. That throwing ring game, where you toss them over a whole bunch of glass pop bottles in an attempt to get one of them on, if you get one on you win like the biggest prize... and then we all pitched in to get a bucket of like 50 rings or so... and nothing, its impossible they bounce off, and we didnt see anyone else land a ring... then the best ride: the bridge of timberwolf ( the ride with the log where when it reaches the bottom, it makes a huge splash forward, soaking the people on the bridge in front) so I went for like 5 or 6 times, was completely soaked by the 3rd time so it didnt matter after that. and spent the day in wet clothing,(had a towel and extra shirt but no pants) so spent a portion of the day in the hand dryers in the washroom. The day was sunny at times so it wasnt too bad 2-3 hours of standing outside. and then we left before the show at night, saw a few people that we knew during the day, apparently some people had vip passes for front or something but didnt matter it'd be crowded anyways... so that was a long tiring expensive day that was definetly worth it.

Back from war

The war might be over, but rumour has it that it'll be started two months from now. So in that time, we'll be here at home from now. We should be preparing for the next battle, but seeing how we won the last (assuming that no one failed), I think this time of peace will be spent relaxing and with family and friends.

So, we far, its none of the above since I've been doing nothing. There was some tree climbing and such yesterday, but the fun of jumping out of trees involved intense testicular g-forces that did an then unknown amount of damage and best to let be for now. So in my time of healing, i'm playing sudoku in a book that i borrowed off a friend and never had a chance to give back.

So now, I'm bored, and since I'm assuming people actually read this, my friends of the asylum, wanna go to a buffet sometime this weekend or next week? only need to bring 20 (its not actually 20, but if we do something else)... also, two bus tickets or equivalent. ? comment your reply... for yes and no... and a suitable time

Schoolz Overrr!

Yes... well school was really over 2 days ago for me as that was the last exam, but school was actually over for me yesterday as I still had to hand in a late essay! It was a tiring day indeeeeed.

Now I sit here... on Nimalan's chair as I took over his computer as he does his sudoku which is taking him hours to do. I shall now glance over to see how he's doing with his numbers. He is currently still on the same sudoku problem that I've seen him with an hour ago with about 12 boxes without numbers... and one with a crossed out number... i think. This report is brought to you by Gary Yip. For more updates, tune in after in about a minute... or that may b just the next paragraph.

I wanna download a new ringtone for my cellphone now... but I don't know what song to download... and i can't find the bands that i would like to download from. Such limited amount of songs... and they're all mainstream songs... oi...

wait... wait... it looks like nimalan's on a roll... no... he's not... nvm, false alarm.

I wonder what he'll do once he reads this... it's like i'm spying on him... mwahahahaha... lalala. I have no life now that i haf no school. sooooo bored. I don't even know what i'm going to do tomorrow!

WAIT! NOT A FALSE ALARM! he is actually done, he has just told me, so i'm telling u the truth. I am a reliable source, i have been checked. Use me in an essay! =D haha... too many essays for me... -sighz-

Let's see now... today... i did absolutely nothing in the morning and most of my afternoon. Visited Tam O'Shanter with Nim and saw some old teachers... weird. Shall update this perhaps later, but yah. Climbed some trees... u know... the usual (if u talk about 5-6 years ago). What to do tomorrow... what to do today... so lost... kk, i shall go away now.
