Up and running

Alright, the blog is back. Long story man, I am damn pissed.

There was some error with my blog, basically I can’t access it. I emailed my host’s support centre. They called me to tried this and that and it didn’t work. To cut the long story short, my blog got deleted, everything is gone (the template and the past two weeks of entries). I only had backup from my previous blog. Well maybe I could have salvage it..ok nvm, long long story.

Basically, I spent the whole afternoon recoding this damn thing. Maybe this is what I get from a host that only cost $1.60 a month. I am 100% sure it wasn’t anything I did that screw it up..it was perfectly fine just the other day. Damn you host called 3ix.org! All the visual posts are not linked so yea..wait till I cool it off, and have more patience for this.

You know how I get really, really extremely annoyed with things not running properly and perfectly (like loosing two weeks of blog entries and all the links not working). And it is not just the recoding, I have to reedit many categories and post cos the backup was a little screw up with them…

I can go on forever whining..

Alright, it’s over, moving on.

So my final year project officially started on Monday. I look at the groupings..graphic design, illustrations, photography, advertising..I am under the graphic design group. 2 and half years in Polytechnic, in VSC, I was so certain I would be in the photography group, I did all the photography subjects..everyone thought I would be in the photo group. But well, see where I am.

For don’t who don’t know..it’s not I am kicked out or anything like that. I decided to graphic design instead of photography for my graduating project cos I am not confident enough to do photography..I am thinking probably it’s more like a passion instead of a career? I was quite upset cos you know..I really love photography but I guess I also can’t deny I really suck at it.

My lecturer is James Na. He is a lecturer who recently came back after a long vacation. I never been taught by him but it’s apparently really good

Ok I shall go backup this damn database before it crash again.

New home

Woohoo, I am back. SO this is what happened. I was too busy to blog and when I finally really want to blog, my account got suspended cos I had no money in my account to pay for my hosting fee! Haha..I was absolutely broke man. I just got my pay not long along but I am broke once again. No I didn’t mad spend it..just I worked very little in September.

I need to blog, I miss blogging. You see, blogging is my only outlet..a place where I can talk and talk and talk non-stop and no one can say I am boring or call me to shut up. See I need to talk, I talk alot just I stop talking many a times cos I might just bore people out or they will stare at me blankly.

Today I went to work. I hate working on Sundays. See firstly, I hate getting out of the house on a Sunday, Sundays should be everyone’s rest day. No one should go to work..everyone should stay at home or go to your friends’ home. And I hate the Sunday crowd/customers. Somehow they are annoying. I think it’s the ‘family day’ crowd. Lots of annoying parents, screaming kids, old man and woman that are rude and friends chill out day and all the other things. The place somehow is especially messy on Sundays.

Tomorrow (actually today) I am gonna stay at home. It’s been quite a while since I stayed at home. I need to do my FYP proposal draft for submission on Tuesday. Well, I still have absolutely no idea what to do..I don’t wanna think about it man.

My hosting fee per month cost me USD$6 which is around SGD$9.6, 10. I always thought it was cheap..well it is..for 200GB of space. Then on Saturday Audrey B. suddenly exclaimed “Wah so ex..you actually pay $10 for your blog?” That got me thinking..got me thinking when I am this broke. I use like probably less than 1GB of my space. I planned to do a portfolio site and stuff but you know..yes you know, it never came out.

SO, after I payed for my overdue invoice of $10 to Surpasshosting, I found a new hosting site, which will only cost me $1.66 sing dollars. I already got a new domain name, will be switching over soon, very soon, I think tomorrow. There you go…I just wasted $10.

Ok I rambled enough, I am getting some sleep soon.

Yes

It’s raining, it’s raining, it’s raining. I don’t like when it rains and I am indoors, at home. Rain makes me emo, like it just ruin a day’s plan or make everything wet and frowning.

I have been working and going to the beach, that’s about it. Time flies and I can’t even recall what I did..like seriously, I went to work and what happened to the rest?

On Monday, it was rainy and cloudy the whole day but we still went to Cafe Del Mar. By evening/night there were me, Shups, Val, Naz, Joan and Addynna. Well let’s just say there were booze and it was very x-rated in the tent/box/house. It was well..memorable.

Yesterday I was working..I was fine and suddenly thought of my final year project. The proposal submission is next Tuesday. I checked, I have exactly a week left. I panicked. I guess I haven’t feel this stressed for 3 years..I mean yea..stress of submission for projects but it’s like a dreading deadline kind of thing. This is…real panicked. Like Panic at the Disco. Ok no..I am serious. Maybe it’s the competition (all my friends are damn good), maybe I don’t want to graduate and really I think cos I know I am not good enough.

I still have no idea what I want to do for my project. Why everyone seem to have something on their mind, an interest…I just do what I like because it is what I can do with the little skills I have. I don’t know man…………………………..I don’t even feel I have any skills I can use for my future job. I don’t even feel I went to school to acquire skills from lecturers. Is this what a poly grad is suppose to feel? Or is it just design students..or just me? 

My computer is kind of screwed up. My dad tried to install a Mac OS in my PC. It did work…only to scew up my D drive that contains all my shows. I have been trying to restore the datas..kind of work..I hope.

Ok bye, I just realised it’s 3pm and I haven’t eaten. It’s Wei’s 22nd birthday today.

Grab that pocket

I spent the whole of yesterday watching the season 2 of “Prison Break” (soon Audrey!) and I am still not done yet. Damn, it’s exciting and Wentworth is sizzling hooooooooooot. Please don’t be gay!

These are the only thing interesting that happened today, while I was people watching on the train, on the way home:
1. A male nurse (he was in the uniform) had like 10 over keychains chained to his handphone. They are probably heavier than that phone.

2. A male sitting in front of me puts money in his chest pocket..no not money, many many MANY money. He had stacks of $10 and $5. It can easily be 600 bucks. Who the hell puts that much of money there? I would grab it if..I was desperate for money.

Interesting? Yes.

Hohoho

Yesterday was fun.

I went to school in the morning for the first FYP talk/meeting, stressful.

Then Shups, Val and I went to Sentosa, Cafe Del Mar to tan and chill. The weather was nice..not too hot, I didn’t get any burn or redness. It was fun..thanks to the girl-school Val and Shups, a male apparently looks like an mini alien from “Men in Black” (???). I had to hide my face while those two go on and on with their unflattering comments. Haha..

Then we headed to this place at Tanglin Village at Dempsey Road with Naz and Addynna and with Carrie joining us later. It is called “Dempsey House“. It is a super nice place! They have spa, fine dinning and a chill out bar place. We went to the bar side. The interior is very old school, very cool themed dinning rooms, the alfresco area is next to a forest with sofas and very romantic lighting. The prices are affordable..regular bar prices. The finger food is really, really good. The music is good, with DJ spinning. The website doesn’t do the place justice. Everyone should go to that place..I didn’t know there is such nice (affordable) places in Singapore.

We had beers and wines. The waiter is super cute. Like he will run over to the table when we have a request..like he really, really dash to the table and he so politely! Haha..

Alright, I will stay home today to plan my schedule for my hols and FYP and then back to work on Thursday to earn back the money I lost.
