If anyone still bothers, I'm shifting. Blog that is. http://itstourettesnotbeer.blogspot.com/
Why you ask? Well, basically, got asked to do it. So now it's like a shared blog. Weird, but really, with my blogging frequency of once every blue moon, at least there is something else to read while waiting for my enlightening posts. I may post copies here depending on my level of laziness. We shall see.
Thanks to the punks who made me create this blog. The end.

More often than not, long titles supposedly are less ambiguous; and thus i shall prove that is but a myth with this useless title.
First things first. I have to get this out of my head. I have to say my piece. Otherwise, it will annoy me for as long as I retain this memory in my mind. It was a long time ago, but I have to do this. The temptation is too great not to. I have to etch this memory in writing, or digital writing if you like; well here goes.
MANCHESTER UNITED 3 - 0 LIVERPOOL
Well, that felt good to get off my shoulders. As a sidenote, scorers were Brown, Mascherano, Ronaldo and Nani. Well, one of them did score a card, so technically he shall be on the list. Well played.
Having said that, I know that only the double would help me avoid some backlash from scousers. No other way around it but to hope for the best.
Few things to complain about:
(1) My grades, although that has been a source of complaint for a very long time already.
(2) The lack of actual music on the radio on the trip to uni. Instead having to listen to utter dross.
MOVING ON.......
CHOR TAI TI A.K.A. BIG 2 or BIG 2.5 in this case. Been playing it for past few weeks maybe. It's turning out to be quite fun; although it has the potential to consume several hours of my life. Thus, I shall have to follow a notion more commonly applied to medicine, which is playing in small doses. This situation has equivalents in medicine such as taking ganja in small doses. Well, maybe.
Today, FLYINGLIKEAPIG a.k.a. siew yok a.k.a. char siew or the more fondly remembered moniker of bak kut teh decided to join in the partaking of the tai ti drug. The effect of such a union was detrimental to say the least. Tempers flared, a player tried to act like a girl but failed miserably, players cheated, bak kut teh hacked into the server and thus obtained fullhouses for countless games, and I won (and proceeded to leave the scene). It's funny how almost all of the above was due to one person.
Going back to the ordinary; I tried playing the guitar earlier and had a lot of problems. I spent close to an hour figuring out the first part of the right hand melody for White Houses. Yes only one hand. The other hand not yet at the stage to be used.
What else? Converse shoes are comfortable although my very bones shiver in fear at the sight of rain when I wear them. I want another Man Utd jersey; which reminds me, 3-0. I need a haircut badly; which doesn't really remind me but I still want to do it anyways; 3-0. I really want to go to sleep soon but I keep having this strange thought. So, I will end this post with said thought for whoever reading this to ponder.
Not 1-0, not 2-0, but 3-0. Yes 3-0. Very nice numbers, 3-0. It just rolls off the tongue, 3-0. So easy, 3-0.
THREE - NIL

Dropping A Metaphorical Bomb
Disclaimer: The word rubber has several alternative meanings and as such should not be confined to a single context.
Wow. Not yet a month since my last post and I have decided to grace this blog with my presence here. Timely in fact, considering I had already forgotten the name of the blog and was very close to forgetting the username and password. Not surprising though, considering I pretty much lack the enthusiasm I first had when I started this blog. The initial plan was to write down bits of my daily life to look back upon in the future. This of course was done under the assumption that some crazy scientist had not yet come up with the idea of turning the Internet into some 3D world where we transfer our whole consciousness or soul or whatever into. After reading that sentence, I have also come to the realisation that I shouldn't have watched Matrix again the other day.
Now, for some updates on events that have occurred recently.

Firstly, on the football side of things, it is getting rather interesting. Man Utd trashed Arse 4-0, Arse start screwing up, Man Utd start trashing other teams, Chelsea are still being taken for grant-ed (credit for this pun goes to some random person on the Internet), and Liv are still stuck fighting for 4th place with the better half of Merseyside (this is still debatable and as such remains solely an opinion rather than a fact).
In other news, I have probably done more exercise these past two months in my room than the whole of last year when I had a gym membership. One can only see the irony of this after considering the technical support and equipment the gym provides, and the lack of either that my room supplies. Something amusing; decided to lift weights over my head yesterday for some reason (whatever reason it was, it had better be good), and my pathetically weak arms gave way after several sets and decided that the weights had to land on the corner of my brow, just above my left eye. However, some good came out of it, as I realised that apart from the initial burst of pain, there really wasn't any pain to be felt after. One can only see this as my skull being thicker than normal. Thus, I have jumped to the following conclusion that my thicker skull is there to protect the rather powerful brain that resides in my head. Arrogant as that may sound, I believe I came to that theory through being self-critical and unbiased, so too bad. To prove my unbiasedness, my prediction of this being true resides in the odds of a billion to one. Referring to such odds, I remain cautiously optimistic, with more emphasis on the optimistic part.
In uni life, I won't be so arrogant as to say it has gone perfectly without a hitch; simply because it hasn't. It has been just okay. First up, the lectures. I knew beforehand that the lecturers would be rather fast and not wait for anyone, but I did not expect them to be fast and furious. Good thing I watched the movie, so I am more prepared. More self study is required, and as anyone with half a sane mind and knows me would know, self study is not in my dictionary. Or maybe it is, under the section "Things I Loathe The Most". Well, I suppose a change of mindset is definitely in order. Other than that, can't have too many complaints about uni. It's a new experience so I am definitely looking forward to it. By the way, snuck into science lecture for air-conditioning; lecture was nothing special. The guy made a few jokes here and there, but he pretty much lost me with all the science terms. Although, having taken my seat early, as I looked at the audience coming into the room, I realised that the lecture really wasn't the main attraction.
Having pretty much rambled on about bullshit, I really do not wish to continue for no real reason. So that's it.
The End (of whatever that was).

At all; nothing to say.
The year is 2008. So far so stale. Holidays were very good with all the visiting and stuff. Being able to play pool and make money out of it made it sweeter. Penang was quite fun. Mostly busy eating the local delicacies. I now know that I have a addiction to Penang food and should keep myself from over-indulging. Personally I was quite disappointed not to try the 'famous' Ipoh prawn mee that has been talked about considering I had to sit in a car twice during the night in Ipoh waiting for the food; only to be informed that the stall was either closed or not open yet.
Christmas was a blast. Got to see so many people I haven't seen in almost a year which was great. New Year I can't remember what happened to be honest. Oh wait I do. Yea it was good also. As a side note, I learned a valuable lesson. Never trust a moron when he says that a cab ride to Asia Cafe is only 'a short while'. I also bought some books on learning the Japanese language since I am hoping to learn more about it. The culture behind the language is so amazing and the sophisticated nature of the language truly astounds me. That would make for a good excuse to hide the fact that I want to watch anime faster.
I was also quite disappointed that since I came to Australia, I have pretty much unlearned all my guitar lessons simply by doing nothing. So hopefully I can rectify that mistake by actually practicing more; or rather just practicing. And it is sad to say but it looks like I am taking the moron's advice of working out. It's better in the long-run I suppose so I have to give props where they are due.
Back in Aus and feeling the boredom in the air seep into my brain. Good news is that I have a new com so I won't have to rely on my laptop which is soon to be dead. Hopefully I can get a MacBook in its place in the not so distant future.
That is as close an update as I feel like writing considering the time now and the need to wake up early to go for a medical for visa tomorrow.
