Don’t touch my things!

Beware of profanities.

PicLens

I found a very nice FireFox plugin so I decided to take a few minutes of my time to share it with all of you! It’s called PicLens, and you can find it @ http://www.piclens.com/. The webpage will redirect you to the appropriate plugin for your browser so use FireFox to visit it! What other browser what you use anyway? Anyway, PicLens is a plugin that creates full-screen slideshows of images of certain webpages, including Flickr, Google Image Search and Facebook to name a few. It lets you start a slideshow by clicking a play button on an image and lets you slide around the images a la iPhone style. So check it out if you want to have nice slideshows and have time to spare!

Guitar Hero

Nothing much over the past few days (once again). Well I did work OT on Friday for free since I was meeting Joanne for dinner + movie at PS at 7 and I was supposed to end work at 5.30. So I worked OT till around 6.15 then took a slow stroll to PS. Joanne was late, so I spent like 45 mins walking around PS! Nothing much to walk there. We watched 27 dresses. It was a nice and funny romantic comedy. I like this quote from the movie - “I feel like I just found out my favorite love song was about a sandwich.” :P I’m more of a romance, comedy the likes movie goer rather than horror or action, though action is still okay with me. After that, Joanne fetched me home and I watched the last episode of Zhu Meng at 1250! Didn’t sleep much but wasn’t really tired.

Anyways, I’ve been playing Guitar Hero III on PC alot lately! Not with a guitar though, but with my keyboard and mouse. I can’t tell you how hard it is to play with a keyboard and mouse. I would expect it to be easier to play with a guitar but I wouldn’t know! I might buy the bundle that comes with the guitar but it seems alittle too wasteful of money. Anyway, I recorded myself playing the dragonforce song on easy! I know I know, it’s only easy, but cmon and give me a break! It’s not easy playing with a keyboard and mouse, and when your system does not meet even the minimum requirements and all the time with Fraps on.

  

Here’s the direct download link for those with nice bandwidth and feel like watching a clearer nicer sounding vid. http://moomookau.org/dragonforce 97.avi (58.1 mb)

Foxkeh!

I know this is a blog of a moo moo kau, but today is the fox day. I mean, how could you not love foxes when they’re so cute, especially if they’re named Foxkeh! Foxkeh is the official firefox mascot for Japan, and it’s the cutest thing you’ll ever set your eyes on! Just check it out!

You can check out Foxkeh’s Blog. I’m so in love with Foxkeh, that I’m using the Foxkeh Firefox theme at home, at work, and even on my portableapps browser! Even my wallpaper at home and at work is of Foxkeh! Check out the wallpapers here!

On another note, please do check out Singapore Law Watch for your latest legal news! Just plugging it cause it’s a free portal launched by my work place and it does provide some interesting reads, especially the Headline News part and certain cases in the Latest Cases section. It even provides RSS feeds, so it’s convenient if you don’t want to keep checking back. I personally use Google Reader to subscribe to RSS feeds, but use whatever you want!

Nothing much…

School has started, but not in full swing yet. However, being the hardworking person that I am, I have been spending quite some time on my GEM1501 assignments, though Lab has not started. There’s a total of 28 assignments, and I have already finished 19 of them. However, I’m pretty much stuck on the 20th one, so there goes my chance of finishing them all :( I wanted to finish them all to lighten my load on Thursdays, which are the days I have lessons pretty much from 9 to 6, except for an hours’ break at 4pm. So, if any kind soul wants to help me with the assignment, you can check it out here. It’s done in javascript, so it should be quite easy, but the problem is not with the javascript programming, but rather with the logic or the thinking through of the problem :P

Didn’t go to work yesterday, because my boss fired me for one day! She was on MC on Monday and didn’t have time to prepare work for me. How ironic is that? I mean, I thought by my going to work I should lessen the workload for them, but since they need to prepare work for me, I guess I’m causing them more work?! Maybe I should work slower in the future, and prevent these situations from surfacing again! Yea, I’m considerate this way, so don’t think I’m making excuses when I work slowly okay?!

And, last but not least, someone tried to kill me today! I was on my way to school, and was going a road when this car wanted to turn right out of NUH carpark. So he inched out, and stopped. It’s important to emphasize that he stopped, since if he carried on I would have been forewarned that an idiot was going to turn out without caring about oncoming traffic and I would slow down. However, he stopped, so I mistook that for him being not an idiot and that he stopped cause he saw the oncoming traffic. Apparently, he was only checking the left side for traffic, and didn’t care to look to the right. I mean, who the f*** turns right and not check for traffic from the right. So there I was, thinking that he was not the idiot I thought he would be, and almost knocked into his car and flew. Thankfully, SSDC did teach me well, and I applied an emergency brake and slowed down, and managed to avoid him. And I didn’t even horn that guy too. I think I underuse my horn too much, as I hardly horn other road users when it is blatantly clear they are in the wrong. Oh well, at least if I did fly I would have been just outside NUH?

One more random thing to add: Raw broccoli is not nice. Somethings are nice when eaten raw, whereas for broccoli, let’s just say they taste better when cooked. Raw broccolis just taste too… green.
