Bright And Gloomy Day...

...and I found myself turning back into some sort of a noob gamer, again...

Sounds of booming explosions fill my room, loud enough to wakeup whoever sleeping in the next room... And yeah, my mum does get cranky like that at 2am in the morning...

I'm not sure why I started playing games again; since my Otago days the sort of entertainment that I do on the computer is the simple Freecell, though it was more of an intense addiction than a simple entertainment I must confess; without playing at least 2 games per 3 hours, the random twitching begins... And no, this doesn't help the geeky image of some untidy long-haired asian dude with severe myopia in baggy cargo pants sitting alone in a lab full of 22" CRT monitors... Gee I miss the Graphics Lab at Otago.

Bunch of european dude at the lab went surfing again today (bastards), during the time where I had to mown the lawn and cut some trees, gee, I know what I'd rather do...

I guess I'm becoming a bit slack, but gee, got to find other things to do too...

The capacity of human beings to bore one another seems to be vastly greater than that of any other animal.

25 Years Ago, Today...

Sad day for the world, mourning one of the greatest people of our time.

December 8th, 1980, John Lennon was shot and killed outside his apartment in New York City...
Same day, December 8th, 1980, on the other side of the world, I was born in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

Like everyone else, I cried.

"I'll probably be popped off by some loony."
- John Lennon, during an interview in the 60's

Woohoo.. Finally Some New Layout...

Was quite fed up with the layout of my blog a while ago, and finally squeezed some time out of my time to make some changes. So now, new layout, new title picture, new boarders, finally at least i feel are up to an acceptable standard, for the time that i have in my normal to do random stuff...

Now, only if i can get my normal life on track, things would be sweet...

Oh, the drawing is done with my new Genius Tablet that i got a few weeks ago... Yeah i know Genius Tablets are a bit budget, i wish i could afford a Wacom Intuous3 as well, but i wasn't born holding Microsoft shares in my hand (though some Google shares right about now would be nice), so this would have to do until the flood the cash hits my front door in the near future... Yeah, who isn't a dreamer?
