It has been some time since I made my last post. And it is about time to pen down the jorunal to keep track of myself: my progress in life.

The recently concluded preliminary exams really reflected a fact: I need to take the teachers' advice seriously. Being too overconfident or underestimating the difficulty of the papers certainly had gave me a lesson. The lesson is about the true meaning of eating humble pie and picking myself up afterwards. Nevertheless, its about time to face the inevitable O levels by doing preparation, mentally and academically, now.


It is a nice song :)

LARA~! has decided to hang up his gaming mouse for good and stop playing DotA. No exact reason was given for the decision made. However, we believe that the decision was made due to a multitude of reasons which should include unable to fit in with his teammates, his role in the team has been undermined, his gameplay was too limited and most probably the inflexible picks of his teammates.

He has always been an avid fan of competitive DotA and he strongly believes you cannot call yourself a real fan unless you truly understand the mechanics and beauty of the strategies used by various teams, to great success. His suggestions were rarely accepted by his teammates and he had subsequently, lost his passion for the game. He will still be a fan of competitive DotA, he revealed himself.

Besides that, he has observed that some people, when playing DotA, change into some sort of egomaniacs who think they themselves are the best. They will start to taunt opponents, or even sometimes, their own teammates. This has unfortunately happened to one of his close friends, a victim of such egomaniacs' taunts. LARA~! had seen enough and finally made the decision to quit DotA.

Regardless, we wish him the best of luck in any of his future endeavors.

All these exams talk, how much you love studying, how much you have studied, really makes me wanna puke. If prelims are really that important, then the O levels certificate would be a piece of laminated paper with no actual value.

With just less than three days time, the prelims will officially begin. With just less than three days time, I simply cannot believe I had been mapling, dotaing, stoning and practically not doing anything constructive to my studies for three weeks.

Let's not bore you with the usual laments on how hard I should study or how much I have studied.


But the critical problem right now, is that, Father's Day in two days time and there is nothing I can do about it. Now that really sucks. Nothing beats having dinner together with your family. Of course, my father isn't the perfect role model father. He smokes, drinks, goes out till late etc.. He has his weak points, alot more than what I've stated.
But.
He is my father after all. And I don't wish to see a family in tatters anyway.

And I want to spend Father's Day with him... >.>

Regardless techno or electronica, both are music genres that sounds nicer than noisy clanging screamo sounds.

but the point is,
WHY IS FFXIV COMING OUT ON PS3 ONLINE?
Can't imagine a massively multiplayer game, something like FFXI, being played on PS3 and a HDTV. The graphics must be mind-blowing.

Damn, about time to upgrade and reward myself with an unaffordable PS3?


not until they cut the price.

"Age is catching up on me."

I guess that serves as a wake up call that time is not to be wasted. I wouldn't want my dad to wait and wait for me to graduate and finally start working. Some day soon, I would really like to allow him to retire in peace and enjoy his life.


Adolescence, the time when crazy thoughts flood your mind. It is the phase of life when a person can be misled easily. Crossroads of life, from a teenager child to a full grown adult. Restless, full of passion. Rash, indecisive.
Please don't change the way you are.

Enlistment - every young man's worst nightmare.


Staying away from that sensitive topic, I still think the ongoing feud is just another storm in a teapot. The insatiable hunger to prove that 'I have more friends than you so you should just shut the fuck up.'
Anyway.

P.S. I did not list down any sources, so you can't shoot me like how Nazis shot Jews.
P.P.S. I am not taking sides, merely messing around. So don't get paranoid.
