Walking

Walking around for shoes,
Trying to buy what I always use,
refusing everything shape and style I see
only to have people want to kill me

We went north to south in our search,
from Yorkdale to Eaton's over sized perch
only to walk outside up Younge street
wishing there were new shoes at our feet

Points were awarded for those who owned
Points were lost for those who just sucked (I'm sorry but there no way to rhyme 'owned' with 'you suck')
In the end i got owned a lot
With Gary trying to look cool and hot

But Jon surprised most of all
With messages from Jenn making us stumble and fall
Questions were asked, jokes were spat
But in the end, we'd know Jon'd tap that

So Jon's off to Boston, Gary and I at home
Same old shoes on our feet, and Gary the bastard reminding me of homework (that right, you don't deserve a rhyme Gary)

wasting time

booo...

wow, no one is posting on this anymore! whts wrong with u people! gosh!

anywayz. just quickly. last week was pretty much my hygiene week. just what i call it coz i bought a new toothbrush, deodorant, gel (those lil' pocket ones for 50 cents, hahaha), aftershave (first time buying that...). Then I also bought a new formal jacket (which i love!) and gloves that can keep my hand warm and grip the steering wheel when i'm driving coz my hand gets cold.

It seems that jonathan is the first to experience my driving skillz (or lack of). I haf grad photos tomorrow... i dunno if i should cut my hair or not... lol! i forgot when the last time i cut my hair was. I tried not to cut my hair for a longer period of time coz im getting bald spots on my head. They're growing a bit of hair now... but it's still a bit noticable. I stress out for little things so time will slow down once i come to my spare and prepare to dress up. My hair better co-operate with me.

I practically bombed my calc test today. Optimization... related rates... disgusting. Easy... but i just had like, one of those brain...malfunction...blocks...thingies. I couldn't remember anything. It sucked! Left questions blank. I feel so bad... which i hear is good coz if u feel good about ur test, it usually means u did poorly. But this time i know i did bad!

As for universities... i dunno how to get them loans for money or how u qualify. too lazy to check rite now. My choices rite now are (1) U of T, (2) Waterloo, (3) MacMaster all for kinesiology. I should haf a back-up subject... oh well. That b all for now i guess. ooo... also got a humidfier for my guitar... not that anyone really cares but something worth mentioning. oh... and I LOST MY DAD'S METRO PASS!! that's like... 90 dollars just lost... and i lost it on like december 2 or 3. Which sucks... -sighz-

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRAP

Heeeey!! yes, 'tis me again. frequent posts... well... more frequen than recent months at least.

JUST WANNA SAY I FINALLY GOT MY G2!!! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
It actually wasn't that hard... it was just 10 minutes of driving. The instructor isn't even that hard. If you've driven a lot, you should pass. G2 isn't that hard one... the G liscense is... or so i've heard. I was soooooo nervous about this test i was just freaking out. The test wasn't up to my standards though... so i wasn't completely satisfied. I'm still thankful that I passed... it's just... when it's that easy... it feels like it was handed to me. I didn't really do much work to deserve it. I could've pwned the test, but i did make a few mistakes... minor... but mistakes nonetheless. Oh wellz.

That be all.

Here i sit,

sitting in the library last period on my spare, havent posted in... a long long time.
Typing on new dell computers that the school has gotten, why couldn't they have these when i was taking comp sci in gr 10 and 11? 19' flatscreen monitors everywhere, and 50 mb space on a network which runs throughout the school, quite nice.

school has been going... blah, just failed a chem where i guessed 90% of the test, so that might affect my evaluation of how the year has been so far. gr 12 actually isnt much harder than before, just longer hours spent doing homework, much longer. May be a reason why i haven't posted in such a long time... i hear people talking about university, everybodys stressed out over it, and it is a pain for me as well. my goal, is to get into mechanical engineering at either waterloo or uft which is apparently requires the highest mark out of all the other engineerings. my marks are strange this year, either very higih or very low, which somehow balances to somewhere in the middle, we'll see how it goes. money, have spent alot of money doing something at least one night a week, my budgeting skills arent very good. it'll eventually run dry soon, and its only november.

halloween was yesterday, our neighbourhood was so quiet? in total probably only 20 people/groups came by the door, barely anybody walking around outside, dont know how it changed so much... in my halloween years there were literally lines of people, youd either speed up or slow to down inorder to go with another group so that the people at the houses wouldn't get mad for ringing the door one after another. dont knwo what has happened to halloween these days.

kitchen is being completely redone, so i've eaten dinner in almost every other part of the house so far, its fun eating on the floor too. oh driving, been using the car more often now, which means i've had to do more driving favors than before, cars really are much faster to get from one place to another. Reading, been starting to read books again, usually whenever i have a spare after a depressing day such as today from something school related, read some old books over again still enjoying them, and then reading this other book someone lent me which really makes your head hurt if you read it all in one sitting. the book is 'god's debris' by the same person who wrote dilbert which although you can see similarities is still a huge stretch, the book is... i dont even know what genre it is, philosophy/humor/abstract??maybe..., it really plays with your mind and goes into everysingle possible topic you can think about... no seriously it does... even though it is a short book, 100 pages or so i didnt finish it in the time i had to read it, so then i was left only reading halfway through it. I tried to find it in the libary catalogue, no luck, (was the schools anyway and i dont think they'd have that type of book on shelves anyways) so i searched it online, and what do i find? the homepage of the book and how it claims to let you download the ebook version of it, what?? nothings free. it actually was, so i downloaded it, its a really small file, while at school on one of these computers and i finished reading it, that was one of the best free deal ever, it feels like music downloading all over again... and apparently the book was made to download for free, in order to promote readers to read and hopefully buy the sequel, which i may actually do if i find the time... so ya if you really want to read the book, remember you have been warned...

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)

Post Less

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

0.o

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...
