Okay. I have two announcements.

One, I've finished my iconfiend100 claim. :D All the icons are right here.

Two, this journal is going on a semi-hiatus. As much as I love LJ and my f-list, I'm really short of time here (or maybe you could argue that I just need better time management XD). This is my second last semester, and my exams are coming up next month. I really have to work even harder because my grades for the common test sucked and will affect my final results. On top of that, I have two reports to write, and my final year project presentation is just next semester. It might seem like I have a lot of time, but at the same time, it's a lot of work. I think it best to start now than have everything snowballing and knocking me off a cliff (so to speak) later on.

So I won't be posting much. I'll try to read my Friends page when I can, but I'll be pretty much invisible around here for some time.

From The Golden Compass official movie website:



Found it while exploring another person's LJ. XD

Genre: General, humour (or intended humour anyway)
Characters: Shinn, Rey, Lunamaria
Pairing(s): None
Word Count: 709
Warning: Unbeta-ed.
Summary: Set in their Academy days. The two of them didn't want to see their friend sad, so they decided to help her out. One-shot.
A/N: Not my best story. But the idea kept playing about in my head, so I wrote it down. Yes, and I know the title is lousy. Let me know if there was any humour at all. I fear cracking jokes that nobody gets. XD

( She lost something important... )

Thanks to Imageshack screwing over my icons, I've had to rehost them somewhere else. The other icons I deleted, since they'll probably share the same fate as the screwed-up ones.

I've put together most of the old ones here, in case anyone wants any. Why most of? Some of them I deleted since I had many similar ones anyway.

( This way to crappy icons. XD )

Take if you want, just comment. ^_^ Credit not necessary.

Resources are here!

Oh yes. Of all days it happened, it just HAD to happen today.

( Go ahead and laugh. I know you want to. )

Oh yes, I found a Rey wallpaper on MT I hadn't seen before. Took me some time to find it.



Here's the link if you want. In fact, if cooked_sashimi hadn't requested for the raw pictures on gundamseed, I'd never have known about it.

[Rhetorical]
I've watched Red Garden ep. 1 and 2, and am wondering what the hell is going on. Who was that dog-like man? And that lady talking about the contract? What contract? What is with them having to fight and all? And worse still, the girls didn't ask for that in the first place.

p.s. Happy Christmas to everyone! :D

( So...about our Organic Chem test. )

I have saved up about $26. Yay. :D It's good to have a lot of money when one is going to Orchard Road. Okay, okay, so $26 is not that much XD

...I wonder which CD I'll get if I can find it...

evenstar1389, I still don't get how one could blow a hundred bucks in one day. =_=

I still have a lot to learn.

( A list of books I borrowed. Don't read. XD )

Lelouch can be really ungrateful. CC saved his ass back then in episode seven. Maybe it was just so she could make use of him later on or something, but still. The least he could do was say thank you. Sheesh. D:

( I made a banner! :D )

I've just come back from my Cell Biology test. I really shouldn't have skipped lunch. Well, it wasn't my fault that I didn't feel like eating. -_-;;; Yeah, well, you know what exam halls are like. It's so quiet.

So my stomach went on protest at not having lunch just as I was doing my paper. It began growling. Audibly. >.< It was so embarrassing, I tell you. I hope no one actually wondered where the sound was coming from. But of course they will. :P I had to keep pressing down on my belly to deaden the noise. Not that it was a permanent solution.

Tomorrow's the last test! Organic Chemistry. I still feel a bit woozy about amines and amides, but I'll do my best. :D

And I'm still waiting for my GSD calendar. Gah.

I've watched Code Geass up till episode 6. Actually I skipped episode 5, but that was because no. 6 downloaded a lot quicker than no. 5. XD I've been wondering...how did Lelouch know how to use the Geass so quickly? I certainly didn't see any explanation given to him. :S I suppose it was okay anyway. If he'd needed C.C. to tell him how to use it, he'd have been a goner. Since she was apparently dead then. I guess it must be one of those "I just know how the thing works" cases. :P Or maybe C.C. explained and they just didn't show it.

...I'm wondering how much I've saved so far. I want to pop by HMV and see if they have any Gundam SEED Destiny Suit CDs. Or OSTs.

I've watched the OP for Rozen Maiden ouvertüre. I didn't expect a slower song. I thought it might have been like Seishoujo Ryouiki. But it's grown on me. XD The part where Suigintou was hacking off the roses was cool. In fact, I liked all of the OP sequences.

Now, I'd like to make an icon of this:


I just wish I could find the Baragoku Otome CD here. I doubt music stores like Sembawang or Music Junction would stock them. :S

Oh yes. I've begun watching Code Geass.

And I'll be dangerous to be around cranky for the next few days until my COMMON TESTS ARE OVER. I hate Networking. I don't get it; some of the quiz questions ask for stuff I haven't heard of at all in class. I' m sure I paid attention, but occasionally the lecturer went too fast, and I couldn't take everything down. Yay, score one for me for slowness. I should've asked him to repeat, but I didn't. Never mind, I have a revision class tomorrow. Heh.

Man, all I need is another C to pull down my GPA, of which I'm not even sure I can get at least a 3.5 ):

( My 2-min talk and a bit about life. )

( Something about the Inheritance trilogy in specific. )

I returned some books, but came home with more today :P I borrowed:

"Mira, Mirror" by Mette Ivie Harrison

"A Mouse Called Wolf" by Dick-King Smith <----(Been looking for this, I've read it before in my primary school days; been wanting to re-read.)

"Emil and the Detectives" by Erich Kästner

"Tales from Earthsea" by Ursula K. LeGuin (I've finished this one.)

"A Wizard from Earthsea" by Ursula K. LeGuin

"Baby Blues: Dad to the Bone" by Rick Kirkman & Jerry Scott

"May the Force be with us, please: A FoxTrot Collection" by Bill Amend

The last two are comic strip collections XD The first three I've read and am just re-reading again. See, I don't actually read so much! :P

I keep getting comments from other people like "Bookworm". People, I'm not even reading textbooks! I'm just reading whatever pleases me! It doesn't count! Does it? If I talk too much about books, feel free to tell me. I'll stop XD

Oh whee, look at the time :P

( VivoCity. )

I am thinking of a journal title right now...But can't think of any at the moment XDDD

I'll be having my Cell Biology quiz in...ah, an hour or so. And I am freaked out.

I don't have extra notes, and what I've studied feels pretty vague, like only bits of disjointed information are floating around.

I have to get myself organised like fearmirichan does *nods*

I'm going to attend the class reunion of sorts later at night, of which I only have a vague idea of the location becuase I've never been there before, and that place is rather...deserted. I have absolutely no idea how I am going to get home without the help of my friends, since my dad doesn't know where it is.

I can't stay there for long because I still have lessons the next day, and an interview to do in the morning/afternoon. After my lessons I'm going out with my orientation group to...somewhere, maybe VivoCity.

Then I have to do the Reflections for Trends in Life Sciences (Or I'll be asking for a low grade), and think of two questions to post online for Organic Chemistry as well as answer two other questions other people posted.

Pardon me if this post seems rather hysterical. I'm typing rather fast.

My 'worries' tag count must be increasing.

Stargazer 3 subs are finally out! There's a direct download link here.

Since I've been asked for The Sims screenshots, here they are XD

( Screenshots. )

We're going to have our presentation on Wednesday. Most of us have finished our research, except for one guy, who hasn't finished. His excuses were: "You didn't tell me what to do", "I wasn't listening" etc. etc. And the most incredulous reason was that we told him what to do when he wasn't listening, as though it was our fault he didn't listen.

Sorry, Your Majesty, but we didn't know you weren't listening.

Seriously, I didn't find it funny like he did.

So now, we have extra work to do on radiotherapy, just in case he doesn't manage to finish in time. Actually I think he will, but let's not take any chances >_< We have to compile the stuff soon.

[EDIT]Meme. Tagged by koyuki_san, 'cos I happened to be one of the five who read it XDDD

List five songs that you currently love. it doesn't matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, the artists, and the songs in your blog. Then tag five other livejournal friends to see what they're listening to.

(Not listed in any order.)
1)"Seishoujo Ryouiki" by ALI Project
2)"Kopperia no Hitsugi" by ALI Project
3)"Hikari no Rasenritsu" bu kukui
4)"Haunted" by Evanescence
5)"The Man With the Machine Gun" by Koji Hajima

Tagging, uh, jdiam, fearmirichan, hikari_curse, __haydee__, lindyali. Whether you want to do it or not, it's up to you.
