in cnet’s recent dual-core processor test… amd’s athlon 64 x2 4800+ outperformed all others in every test round… and it’s better value for money than intel’s best offering too… i’m on amd so of course i’m on their side… ;)
downloaded a couple of old school dos games last night… digger… alleycat… man… those came out ages ago… i checked… they were released around ‘84… about my age huh…
my guitar’s intonation is out and i can’t bring it to my fave shop musicraft anymore cos they’re already closing… and the repairman isn’t around… oh man… now my solos sound worse than ever… just went there today to accompany my fellow bassist get a cable… but there were none left… haha… the racks are practically bare… boy am i gonna miss the ‘friendly neighbourhood guitar store’…
my car’s gonna die from corrosion soon… having some parts resprayed and replaced this thursday… boy does everythin’ cost a lot of money…

seven days

today is the seventh day of my return…
what has happened in the past week?
in a way… quite a lot… and also nothing much…
i haven’t put as much as time as i thought i would into really practising…
but that was because i was just too busy goin’ out here and there…
and life outside’s been rather happening…
unpredictable it is…

727 in 12

well… my journey home was far from uneventful… luckily for us… at the end of the day… we were safely home… travellin’ for 0.727Mm all in all was indeed tiring… man… if anythin’ can go wrong… it will… especially to my car when i’m on the highway… :) spent half the day literally on the road… and it was 2200 when i reached home… a delicious burger at burger king for dinner was probably the best part of the trip… hehe…

time to unwind… practise shredding… enlarge my dvd library… go on a few trips…

9 to 5

No… i’m not talking bout the long workin’ hours i’ll have to endure in the future… (excluding overtime of course)
That’s roughly the duration of my journey home today… at least it will not be a solo feat this time… it can be pretty boring… and not to mention dangerous at times…
Right… one hour to pack… and i’ll be good to go… till the next post… signin’ out…

bureaucratic stupidity

Where? Issues When? November 20th, 2005 Who? [[[[|]]]]

i’m glad my course isn’t in this list… but i wouldn’t be too happy about that either…
they like to change decisions overnight… retarded administration…
well… a number of u guys readin’ this are affected i know… let’s hope it’s not here to stay…

i didn’t know that there was such a campaign until i read it on the raw feed… i must start readin’ the newspaper when i get back home i guess… malaysian cops certainly have innovative ways of enforcing the law… i’m not sure if this method is also being practised elsewhere overseas… the hall of shame is worth checkin’ out… just for entertainment… if you’ve too much time in your hands that is… :)

three and a half

Where? Hang Out, Music When? November 19th, 2005 Who? [[[[|]]]]
years of my university life are officially over as of today… phew… what a journey it has been… 

serpent had a little barbecue gathering… an end-of-term farewell of sorts… it has indeed been the most active period for the band lately… taking part in two competitons over the past three months… getting to know fellow local rockers and bands… whom we have grown quite close with in a short span of time… strangers have become acquaintances… buddies… love has even blossomed among a few…

it has definitely been a great semester… more jamming… more newfound rocker buddies… more gear (an amp, a bass, a guitar & two effect pedals) among serpent members… more exposure to the band scene… more songwriting (we’ve completed one new song and are currently workin’ on the other… in fact we just composed some lyrics at the party)… in short… more FUN

hopefully things will even be better in the second semester… maybe a gig or two?… or some recording?… more composing?…

the fun has just begun :)
