And Day 1 Begins..

Yes, Day 1 of school. LOL. (okay, it wasn't all that bad really)

Turns out there was a new kid in class before me.
I guess it's like how it's televised, new kid is always the odd alien for some time till another comes along! lol..

okay, time to snooze..got some classes later on =)

Lies

Hmm..what should one do when someone continuely lies to them?




Don't we all search for truth in a world of lies?

Time for some Games!

Alritey, this post is a day late, but well, better late than never right? =)

I'm pretty sure those in the gaming scene would have known abot this rather much talked about game..


YES! Left 4 Dead aka L4D!


I first played it when Steam launched the free demo, and I absolutely loved the game...and that, was really the point-of-no-return...

So instead of hopping down to my regular LAN place to play every weekend, I finally got a copy of the game!!!! WOOHOOOOOO! Now I can play it as and when I want! (Yes, feel free to call me a nerd/geek/lack-of-social-life homosapien)

Anywho...it's retailing at most electronic stores, available for PC and XBox 360! I'm not sure about the XBox version, but the PC one comes with a mousepad and a free poster (sorry,forgot to take a picture of the poster, but it's got a similar design to the mousepad ! oh yes,i think there are different designs too - the other is the L4D main design =) )

okay, off i go for some L4D!

Headache

OMG, I'm having one of those massive headaches again.

Cancer

okay, here's what i heard off the news in the evening.

A particular family in England has had the misfortune of carrying the so-called 'cancer gene', aka oncogene, one which causes cancer. So they were of cause particularly worried when one of the daughters in the family got pregnant.

However,

Researchers have managed to help this family with genetic therapy, and this baby girl has been delivered with the lack of that oncogene (BRCA1)!

Note: mutations of BRCA1 are associated with a significant increase in the risk of breast cancer, as well as other cancers (ovarian, fallopian tube and prostate cancers)

I'll post more when I find out more details =)

More Dead than a Dead Fish

I know how I don't really blog about me in here, guess there wasn't really anything much to blog about then.

In any case, I'm scheduled to be at Sentosa tmr, if anyone's going to be there, do catch me there! (and hopefully don't see me flop big time at the competition..LOL)

it's some SAFRA thing, of which now at the eleventh hour, i receive a message informing me that I need heels. HEELS?! AT THE BEACH?!? Great. Just Great. anyone who knows me knows i don't own any sort of heels.

Great.

Am I more dead than a dead fish?

Definitely.

Pink Iguanas?!

Yes, this isn't a joke, scientists have discovered a unique species of pink (rosada) land iguanas living on the Galapagos Islands!

Apparently, Charles Darwin missed the characteristic pink iguana, which has not been found outside this single, relatively young volcano since his travels bypassed Volcano Wolf!

Researchers,who first discovered them in 1986, first thought that the iguanas, which are pink with black spots, simply had skin pigmentation problem. But after years of study, researchers have concluded that it is a unique species.

Windows Live Messenger BETA

okay, i'm using this BETA version of MSN! Been using it for a couple of hours now, it's quite good!

u get to choose your scene (aka skin), signature sound (aka notification sound), the layout is more spaced out, and the chatting becomes point form!

what's more, you can take note of who changes their msn nicks/ display pictures at the bottom of the platform!
