chili explosion

i've been staring at my streamyx dsl modem and the 3rd darn light has been blinking all night!!! then how was i able to post this? surprise... i'm using the old trusty jaring dial-up... btw i'm getting sick again... kept sneezing right before dinner... maybe i'm allergic to the dog...

so what's new? i'll start from the most recent interesting event to whenever i feel board of typing... friday - woke up at 7.30am (should have been walking by that time...), so practically ran/brisk-walked to dk teratai (which is so far away and situated on top of a small hill...)was panting like a dog when i reached the lecture hall! after biostatistics tutorial and geology discussion session - went to return the 1st library book i borrowed... saw that bong guy from aiesec (why do ppl have to bleach their whole head of hair???) anyway, when mom came to pick me from college, it was raining horribly... mom drove "into" block d... but still, i got wet... then we went to sungei way to eat seafood... and it was raining too... lots of water for an afternoon... well, thursday after bio practical - went to 1u with mom... bought duck rice for dinner... went back to hostel and had a cat nap for 15 minutes before bugging yen chyng to go for aiesec meeting... anyway we ended up waiting for some time for irving to fetch us... went to the aiesec episode... was just in time for a little square dancing... wauter and e.j from the netherlands presented about their country and also made us play a game where we had to get signatures from the people who matched the description of 10 prepared questions... i got only 7 out of 10... one of the questions was "who is wearing pink underwear?" (?!?) anyway, after the episode, we went back to college... decided to eat my duck rice... had a chili explosion... the little chili container was like a puff ball and when i lifted its lid slightly... "Pop"... there were so much tiny bubbles at the bottom... i wonder whether it was a result of bacterial activity or the chili sauce was extra-cooked by the heat from the soup (which smelled a bit suspicious too)... wednesday - after watching fragments of A.I (i love that show... esp the aliens!) for S&T, i went back home... btw, our S&T tutor quit... so our lecturer is going to conduct our tutorials! (oh no!) .

.. divergence from topic: i watched gattaca and the devil's advocate just now... i love those two shows too... great actors/actresses and good themes! ethan hawke, jude law and uma thurman for gattaca (we should have picked this show to discuss for S&T instead of star wars III!!!) and keanu reeves, charlize theron, al pacino for the devil'e advocate!!! although i've watched these shows so many times around... but i still love them... ;Þ

bought an ftec notebook on sunday from senQ in low yat plaza... it costed us rm3999 plus another rm300++ to extend the warranty to 4 yrs. it has a 12" wide screen... supposedly 1.9kg (seems heavier to me)... pentium m 740, 512mb ram, windows xp home edition, the usual specifications plus it came with a small mouse and a bag. however when i came back home and used it for the 2nd time around midnight, i found that 1 pixel wasn't working... LK confirmed it... so mom took me back to low yat on monday to check the problem... but the pixel was fine when then turned it on... but they promised to change the set... so we hung ard sungei wang waiting for the stock to come... but it didn't come... so had to come back the next day and the boss/person-in-charge was slightly insolent to us... but they changed it for us anyway...

so ok... i'll end here... feeling lethargic and sleepy now...
