Just Lost It

A sudden fit of anger.

The cruelty.

The mercilessness.

The rage.

The spouting of nonsense.

The wake up call.

The relief after the spout of nonsense.

The heartache.

The decision.

The end.

Super Mario Bros?

I dare say almost every one of or around my age, maybe older has played Super Mario Bros before, I'm thinking some of them are still playing because its just seriously and addictively fun.

Stepping on the evil mushrooms/turtles etc and eating the mushrooms to grow big or spew fireball. Saving Princess Peach/Toadstool and occasionally if your not careful, falling into the pits or getting killed by evil mushrooms and fireball-spewing flowers etc.

What does all this this signify? Is Super Mario Bros really just a dumb game whereby Mario jumps around and over obstacles trying to save Princess Peach?

The answer might just suprise you!

Holiday mood FTW!

I have a test tomorrow, its ridiculous. I have had 2 weeks of holidays already and you expect me to have the mood to study, please gimme a break.

I can't even get shit into my brains, let alone words which doesn't make sense. The computer and the internet as a whole isn't helping either.

Off to bed and pray hard for me.

Dear Father in Heaven, most Gracious and Loving God, please grant me the power to excel in my test. I know what it is pointless if I do not help myself and study, but I swear I tried to study.

I thank You now Lord for the recent blessings I have received and for the blessings yet to come because I know You are not done with me yet. Amen.

Swimming

ahaha, went swimming today, wasn't so bad at all.
I'm too old for swimming already. 2 laps and I'm already feeling the breathless-ness. I use to swim like 10 laps at one go without feeling anything.

For those who thinks that the iPhone 3G is cheaper than the current iPhone, think again.
  • AppleInsider mentioned that a prepaid iPhone 3G in UK could cost about £350.
  • The current 2G at 600-700SGD is without a plan.
  • Apple is greedy, they would never price the device at 199 without telco subsidy.
  • AT&T is paying Apple 325USD susidy per iPhone.
  • You pay the telco back the subsidy through your monthly subscription/plan.
  • Telcos are also also greedy, their objective is also, like Apple, to earn your money.
  • Think logically and stop thinking that the iPhone 3G is only 199USD without considering the susidy and monthly subscription.

The points above can easily tell you how greedy Apple and the respective telcos' are. Think about point 7 and tell me whether the iPhone 3G is indeed only 199. Obviously not, you dumbass.

The current iPhone is 600-700SGD without a plan but the iPhone 3G, although priced at 199USD, you still have to sign a two year contract min. and a data plan as well. You would be paying close to 2 thousand dollars just to get your hands on the iPhone 3G. Good deal? I don't think so.

What would be the scenario when Singtel finally launches the iPhone 3G. I predict that:

  • iPhone 3G will be priced at 199USD or 299USD depending on the capacity(16 or 8GB)
  • You would be required to sign a contract of 2 years minimum.
  • You would also have to subscribe to a dataplan as well
  • You can use the iPhone 3G on any network in Singapore (M1, StarHub or Singtel)
  • You would have to activate the iPhone 3G on the spot, in the shop.
  • iPhone 3G will be offered without contract but at exorbitant prices e.g. 1000SGD

StarHub and M1 will also be getting iPhone 3G at a later date, smart consumers will wait until then. Consumers in Singapore are so gullible, they believe whatever companies feed them, exactly like what she said.

Whenever there is a sale, people will rush to buy, be it useful or not, necessary or not. Some even buy to store it for future use. Does it even ever occur to them that there are better revision/products coming in the future and the sale now is apparently to clear out old stock?

no more UIR but still Using-Internet-Ridiculously!

Friday, February 1, 2008 was the date of the previous post. Damn, time flies so fast. Its already June now, June 21 to be exact.

Frankly speaking, this whole UIR blog thing was basically just a half-baked job by me. Posts were clearly posted in a single shot, on a single day, I merely just edited the date on the posts to reflect the days when I have UIR lessons. Anyhow I'm already graded for UIR, that is why I'm here to confess.

Lets talk about current issues. Rising oil prices, inflation, rising transport fares, everything is rising and its ridiculously expensive to even step out of the house.

Talking about stepping out of the house, I've blown a hundred over bucks these few days on food and stuffs for/on her, mostly on food and abit of her, well it always have something to do with her be it food or not. Food is so expensive nowadays its ridiculous but I never scrimp on food ever.
I recalled having Fish&Co on Tuesday and KungFu Panda yesterday and had her favourite Korean Saba fish and Nihon Mura (translated to mean Japan Village) today.

Lets move on and talk about movies or in this case a particular movie.



Religulous
So why am I interested in this movie? Simple, because I'm until now still unsure about Deities and Gods (I know there is only one true God for some but just bear with me for a while here).

Uncertainty brings about doubt and doubt puts ????????? in my head.

There are questions I would have loved to ask here in this blog, but it might be too controversial for my own good/head.

This movie or rather documentary above is very controversial because of the inclusion of religion. I'm not even sure if it will be approved in Singapore.

While I'm not an atheist (I often pray to above for help and I also visit temples to pray), but I can't help but wonder just how powerful the deities/gods/god are. Using my best friend (Google.com), I stumbled upon this!

After watching and reading that site and youtubing their vids, it started to make me wonder........

DO YOU WONDER TOO?!

Of course, everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and religion. I'm just here to post about something I found that is really interesting to me. I've heard and personally experienced something that is out of this world before (unless my eyes are lying to me) but still it makes me wonder............
