(Un)Done

I have partially listed down things and places for my wish list and I have created a link on the left panel so my friends can drop by and see how ambitious the dreamer can be. :D

Easy link: My Wish List

Now, there are two things I want to do on my blog:

1. Add table
   I was supposed to put my wish list inside a table but I just can't do it here. I pasted table html and it still didn't work well. If my suspicion is correct, I think blogger has to work on that.
2. Archive
   I need to archive my journals! I don't know how to start. And do I really need to transfer everything to another blog site who caters archiving? Hay...

Day Dream

While I was on the bus this morning, my mind went frisky about things I want to buy and places I want to visit.. And so, as usual, I switch on to blogger mode; I started to build up my entry on my thoughts.

Delpoy The Spender:

1. iPod Nano
2. X-men signatured leather jacket (luxury I know!)
3. RL Blue perfume
4. Canon Ixus digicam
5. Brown leather shoes
6. Laptop

Delpoy The Traveller:

1. Hongkong (Ocean Park or Disney)
2. Phuket, Thailand
3. Tokyo, Japan
4. Sydney, Australia (Opera House)

As if those are easy to achieve, except the perfume which I will buy next week hehehe. But I do hope I'll be able to bring it off one at a time, on top of my other financial obligations. Even in spending we can ask God to send the Holy Spirit to make us a good steward of our own finances. And I just did.

For now, my day dreaming is enough to sew up my craving. I think I better create one fixed entry, sort of a Wish List. Ok I will do that later.

By the way, I hope this one works. I'm writing this through yahoo and send it through my bogger email to be posted automatically.

God bless. (ooops sorry Almin. I know this is your closing signature ait? hehehe. Can't help it)

New Yahoo! Mail Look

Check out the new Yahoo! Mail.


I put this up few minutes before I ran to my class and it was just now that I'm exploring on it. You are right Mitzi, you have to sign up and be on the waiting list to get this. :D

Still not too fast though but a lot of features are there to enjoy. :D

The Pirates

Ok so I hope this one doesn't come as spoiled. I just thought of writing this down before it expires. Perhaps I wanted to kill my boredome while fulfilling my promise to do this.

I watched Pirates twice. The first one I had no choice but to watch it alone as I need to discuss it with my students the following day. The second one I had no choice either because my friends already got me my ticket with them.

My Thumbs Up

1. The production is superb. It pays off well.I felt like I was brought to their Age.
2. The story line is well-twisted. It tied out all throughout and everything ended crystal clear, except of course for those things we have to watch out on part 3.
3. It started with adventure and ended with more adventure.
4. Johnny Depp. He's the man.

My Boo

1. This is subjective though but I think there are some adventure that made the story a bit draggy in the middle. They can take it out yet the story can still pull through. Yeah it's entertaining anyway.
2. This aint really boo though at first I thought the entire scene with the tribe is irrelevant, yeah it's entertaining but can be cut, unless they are going to connect it on Part 3, like the metal paprika container produced by East India Company. It might make sense later on.

Well, I think I have forgotten the rest, or maybe I'm just preoccupied now.
4.5/5

Deep-Fried Status

Just recently, my boss asked me to create a draft of guidelines on using digital images and other copyrighted materials. It all started when I used these images from Devianart for a certain e-flyer the Sales and Marketing pips need. As usual, I tweaked it a bit to make it slightly different from the original file. And I though I made a mess when our big boss got us all to verify if those images can be used without facing any infringement issues. When things spruced up, I just told my boss that I know a lot of web chaps doing the same thing I did practically on de facto principle. Now, did I just make it as an excuse? I don’t think so. It’s true. Public ownership takes effect once you put things up on the net; not until I read this fair use and published guidelines articles that is making my day quite uneasy. It’s giving me a big headache.

Firstly, I don’t how to start my draft. I thought I can do the draft in a breeze. But after I have read those useful craps, I can barely write a line. It’s quite a broad issue and it overwhelms me now.

Secondly, my friends pulled me in last night to watch the Pirates the second time around. They refused to watch it without me. As if I can do something on that, so I ended up watching it again. And while watching, the blogger’s instinct got to me. Let me write my views on the flick some other time. But anyways, we got home almost 1am and I’m almost hitting my monitor sneaking up a nap.

Thirdly, I guess I just woke up the wrong side of the bed. That’s it.

Now, let me go back to work and start hitting my monitor again. Hay, how do I start the draft for child’s sake, before they get me well-done.

It's Over

The World Cup fever is over for SG, as well as my students'. There were few who came in late last Monday due to live telecast of the finals at 2am. But I was surprised to know that majority of them didn't watch the game at all.

My late sneak-in strat is over. Yesterday when it was half past 9am and I was still on the train, someone from Course Planning Department phoned me to ask my whereabouts. I was very cheerfully honest to tell him "Oh, I'm few more stations away!", thinking it was okay, but the thing is, they were actually looking for me because I never realized that I have a GLS schedule at 9am, and students daw are waiting for me. The moment I heard it, I visualized how they are holding their pen and adding a cross sign on my merit card. Bad trip talaga. But I apologized to them through email and ccd my boss as well. It was an honest mistake though. I told them I was preoccupied, which I really am up to now, because I'm moving in to a new place and need to attend to a lot of things for it.

Goodbye Choa Chu Kang. Hello Aljunied. If we travel for almost hour before, now it's only 20 minutes, including the walk to the MRT station. Though our new place ain't as luxurious as our condo in CCK, it's quite in almost everything. It's accessible. But sure I am going to miss the wide pool, the community and all. Ours is a commercial place. It is an old HDB that was renovated so still ok, though furnitures can tell the centuries gone.

Today I might watch Pirates alone because we didn't made any reservations. I need to watch it today because my students and I will discuss the movie tomorrow in connection to Multimedia subject. I should have taken my students' invitation to join them if I only knew I'll end up watching it alone, thoug it's still ok.

(Inc)complete

Woohoo! Just when I thought my day is gonna end so dry because i forgot to wear perfume today and it's raining my way in the office that my gray top and slate pants catched the drops, I could not believe I can update my blog right here from my paperfull desk! Yehey!

I wonder what happened to our blocker. We used to have this Fontiguard that blocks all personal, dating and game sites. That's why everytime I access my blogsite here, I can't see my tagboard and other stuff. I wonder what our network guys had eaten this breakfast...

MITZ!
I'm so glad you're willing to join SFC there! That's a wonderful decision. Hope you can find the community soon. Don't worry I'll help you find it. I'll ask my friends here in Singapore.

SERGE!
Where are you ba? Give me your contact details pal. I'll be moving to Aljunied soon. Just in case you're near to the place.

JAN!
I'll let you know my other line number once I got one ok.

YAN!
I haven't added you yet on my blogsite. I'll add you ha? Thanks.

NAIDA!
Friend sorry if I haven't not emailed you lately. Get back to you later ok. I miss you!

I hope this one gets through. Have a blessed day.

A Close Encounter: Superman Returns

The long wait is finally over. I saw the flick last night with my friends, at Cathay Cineplex. As usual, the movie didn't start on time. But it's just okay because you almost cannot take notice of the delay since the theater-like movie house seems to be so comfy to stay on. I was excited to see not just the film but the teaser trailers for the upcoming box office films only ended with my disappoinment. I thought of seeing the Spiderman 3 teaser as they told but they just did not have it here. Anyway, the movie started and off the people begun to hold their breath too.

I find the movie quite captivating. Of course, movies like that needs to be absorbed well before you can say your piece of verdict. And I made some which I think has made realized how I miss Smallville so much. Haven't seen Season 4 yet and I don't even know which season they are into right now.

My Thumbs Up

1. Superman takes off, flies and lands so flawlessly. Though at times you can see that thin gap between reality and animation, but all in all, it's amazing how it's been done.
2. The story went quite realistic in such a way that it humanizes Superman character. It has shown his other side and it pays off.
3. Characters are well justified except for Lex Luthor. I guess it's not proper to elaborate it on this category. Later. Though, Lois Lane seems to be way too tough there. She still seems fine after all the accidents and life-and-death situation she got involved in. But as compose as she is, her personality is quite strong.
4. Brandon Routh looks perfect for the character. I like his facial expression. Something I can imitate hahahaha. He's just few tissues away from me anyway hahahaha.
5. I like how the OST (Can you read my mind) was arranged in an orchestral way, if there's such a word.
6. Given that all visual and sound effects are superb.

My Boo

1. I just had one big boo with the film - Lex Luthor and his entire story on it. I find him weak and stupid. I don't know what's the catch behind it but I couldn't take how he's managed to have someone as naive as Kitty when he's too damn smart with almost all things. And did he just lost all his wealth? That one I miss. And this is where I miss Lex/Smallville too. His idea of creating a new "land" is something so unreal. It's not even land he's creating in the first place. It's crystal. I guess I'm wrong.

Since I'm feeling like a movie critic, I'll give it 6/6 stars as inspired by the 6-star Fullerton Hotel which I've just seen few hours ago. hehehe.

This one is the Real Close Encounter! I just can't get over it when it's just about to happen soon. That kinda weird huh. I'm so excited to watch Robbie Williams. That's it. I'm excited as well to meet some friends. I can't stand to enjoy the entire concert alone. And whether they like it or not, I'll barge in to any peer group there as long as it's in my reach. hehehe.

I'm sleepy now. It's almost 2am. Just got home after touring our friend around who just arrived here in Singapore and Jess' brothers and friends.
