Deludedly Swapped (DS. Get it?)
Anyway...
Now our DS looks brighter. Would stick to Black, we really would, but is it worth waiting 3 weeks? On screen is the Hit Game, Nintendogs. Thank goodness it's not like a Tamagochi, There's no need for 24/7 pampering.Found: A Nokia 6020. Lost in Translation
Got in my ride to get home. Cab Driver Jeffery found a Nokia in the Backseat. He asked me to try to track down the careless, absent-minded owner. I found the owner's (most likely a teenage girl because a guy won't display a "Derrick Rawks" on his phone, stick a flower sticker on the phone and call his friends stupid cute-cute names.) home number. I instinctively put it on Loudspeaker for a safer ride for both of us. Some Mandarin-speaking lady (her mother, no doubt) answered. I almost shut myself down when she started and went on speaking Chinese.
Let me tell you. My Chinese isn't good. I can only speak Chinese to get on with my day, not to save my life. 94% of my daily conversation language is English (while 2% is left for Singlish, 3% for Chinese and the remainder's for Dialects and Malay, mainly used to blend into whatever i say).
I think the Woman's a little hard of hearing, 'cause I was practically shouting to the phone. We then got information that they lived in Outram Park. Good Luck.
Why can't we all just learn to speak English and live in Peace?

Weird, I don't feel Seventeen...
Incidentally, it's also Michael Jackson's birthday, which, due to current events, does give me the creeps.
I have been enjoying The Sims 2 Over the weekend. It's Friggin' Fun!
The Graphics are Real Pure Now, it's not as rigid as its predecessor. It got so advanced, I can build more than 2 storeys now, not that I want to.
A Sim's Life is much more complicated now. More Commands, More complications.
Such Extreme Detail of the game can be seen in the Sims you create. Change their Eyes, Chin, Cheeks, Nose. Lips and Hair (with really brilliant Hairstyles too!). I would show you what a few of my current Sims look like, but the Snapshots are Small and Grainy. Maybe another time.
Our DS has been (sadly) sent back due to a Dead Pixel on the Screen**. It's only Day Two! We must have it in Tip-top condition! "Nintendogs" is just simply adorable! We now own a Shiba Inu, it's called 'akira'. I find it weird that I have to speak to it through the DS's in-built microphone, but for some reason, my sis doesn't. hmm...
I want Canvas Curse!!!
**This just in...due to the aforementioned technical fault, our "dead pixel" Black DS has been swapped for a Turquoise-coloured DS. Yeck. Me don't feel nice about that colour. Poor Black.

NintendoDS Get! The Sims2 Get!

We now have a NintendoDS in the house, accompanying the PSP Edwin has. Canvas Curse was not available so Nintendogs will have to do for now. The Worst, most frustrating part? The Guy who sold it to us forgot to pack the charger back in! Now our DS has no Juice! Aww...

No Matter, I just ripped open another present ahead of time. I got The Sims 2 for Mac. Yeah!
Who da Man?!
I'm gonna get busy and install The Sims on my mini. See ya!
Episode 29 - "Quest for the DualScreen!"

It's a Black nintendoDS! Our GameBoy Color is getting worn out. It's like what, 6 years old? We also hold a GameBoy Original v2. That one's still working, extremely durable too but it's so Fat and Lazy. It's time to Step to the Future!
One problem is that either the range of games we want is limited or that the NDS is too Expensive alone. Choices, Choices, Choices. I want Kirby Canvas Curse, Sister wants Nintendogs. Notice it's all Cutesy.
I picked the black one after i saw it on the Japanese Nintendo Website. You won't imagine how much the Japanese love their DS! There are so many bloody accessories I'd already flipped over on! WAH!!!!
Dinner, then Disappointment.
As mentioned yesterday, we went out last night. My Esplanade birthday-ish celebratory dinner was well-worth and fulfilling. I decided to pick out some things that were a bit different from our last trip there to "No Signboard". Pepper Crabs a-plenty. We actually forgot to make a reservation, so we had to wait around. I went to Pop Culture (if it's called that, can't remember), that Movie Merchandise store where Sister told me that the Matrix Visuals were off the sale. Oh well...
Gridlock.
We went home after I lost track of time. It was 2200hrs Exact. We got a cab home. Dad, Me, Sis and Edwin in one, Mom and my 3 aunts in another. If you were at the ECP last night, you would know what happened. Some driver got down on his luck yesterday and his car burst into flames. Causing a "Massive Jam after Rochor (Road) Exit" (this message flashed over the Traffic Warning Display on the expressways, explaining the quotes.).
The Next TWD showed that 4, yes FOUR, lanes were to merge into one. Being a person interested in Extreme Traffic Conditions, I was actually excited to see how this would turn out. Up ahead at Exit 13 (hmm..): East Coast Park and Fort Road, a Tow Truck 2 highway cop cars, 1 Fire Response Truck, and a medium charred wreck of a car were holding the entire expressway up. They gotta be more efficient in this.
Touching is Good. Yes?

dinner.17 at the 'nade
I'm gonna stash 20 bucks and get me either Neo's Matrix Sunglasses or the Twins'. Being my second attempt this time.
Both are replicas, but I don't care. and of course I'm not wearing them! Are You MAD?! Strictly a Collectors Item.
Tomorrow's supposed to be the day where Mars is like, near the moon or something. I think I lost that email. I've been seeing this small dot next to the moon during the early mornings. That speck should be Mars. I'm not really good at astronomy. I only like Orion.
I've received word that I have no tuition tomorrow. A relief from early-morning stress for once.
Me Likee My Blog. Makes me smile on the way i did it.

I think I'm turning Seventeen!
In 4 days, I turn Seventeen, which counts as my last year as a minor. I'll still stick to my resolution that when I turn of Legal Age, I won't Smoke or Drink. I'll slit my throat the moment I pick up smoking. hmm...I sound a bit Dark today.
Nothing Much exciting happened today. These Melodramatic School days are tiring me out. So I'm gonna put some personal opinions I had for a couple of weeks.
Tiger Mac OS X is making former PC users, like me, very, very happy. Next Year, the War Begins. Microsoft will release Windows Vista. It's a fact that at least 65% of Vista had "taken" ideas from Mac OS 10.4, Tiger. Tiger's Spotlight and Safari RSS is being knocked-off in to Vista with its Start Button Menu Search Bar and IE7, which is RSS enabled, apparently they say, is to take on FireFox. Sigh. Now I won't say that Microsoft is Copying Apple, but Steve Jobs did. I won't recommend the upcoming Windows Vista. No matter what they say, Naughty Geeks are creating a fleet of Viruses just waiting to pounce on Vista.
There has also been a version of MacIntel, the Mac OS that runs on Intel Processors, circulating around recently and Hackers have got hold of it. OSx86 is now being used by cheapskates who want a low-cost feel of a Mac on a DIY PC. C'mon lar, Where's the Love? What's the point of Using a Mac on a PC? Just Switch, please.

Guess who's back?
Well, I'm back. What's New? Allow me to explain.
1. I've removed the former Blog and replaced it with this one from Blogger (or blog*spot, whichever.) This makes it easier to write my thoughts than on Dreamweaver.
2. The Navigation Above is now much simpler. For Several incompatibility issues, the Update scroller bar has thus been removed. the Navigation above now open the links in new windows, solving my several page MIDI problem.
3. The Archives belonging to the former blog has been shifted to the sidebar to your right. the Archives for this blog will be shown properly, as soon as I find the original coding.
well I guess that's it for now. Major update on hedgehogStyle. Speakerboxx's back up, BG MIDI is functioning. See you again soon.

Good as Back.
I'm gonna learn using Dreamweaver, but it's damn f**king hard. It's not as WYSIWYG-ish HTML program like Frontpage (i guess that's a thing Microsoft is good at, but their OS stinks, and they aren't making a Frontage for Mac either.).
while I wasn't blogging, I had a few life-changing SonicTeam sketchies done. I mean, these look REAL-GOOD! I simply love them! you should check out my deviantART page and get the Wallpaper if you want.
Today's Singapore's 40th National Day. I'm not duly impressed about this year's. Sure, 5 separate areas and a crowd of people celebrating together dived at JurongEast, Tampines, MarinaBay, Yishun and the Padang, but the MCs are the same, old same, olds. Mediacorp needs new stars, desperately.
Thursday is the start of my Preliminaries. I must say I'm very nervous. Wish me Luck.
Because inactivity doesn't mean I'm dead.
If you're seeing this without, then proceed to puff-x.com and view it there. It'll explain why this blog is very empty and that it appears without a Blogger sidebar.
