Spiderman Vs. Blade 2

Luckily i managed to watch both the above films in that particular order. Coz if i didn't i would be dissapointed with the ending of spidey. Blade 2 was filled with so much action that i don't think there can be any other movie that can even come close to it, and yes that even includes ep 2.(that's a totally different story all together. I would like to thank the internet and file sharing software(namely Kazaa) for the free screening of these 2 excellent shows. I'll be going for ep. 2 on saturday, so perhaps i could mention a thing or 2 about it.

Peace people.

"party's over" - Mace Windu

This is an exact replica of a supposedly actual letter
a daughter wrote to her parents from college.



Dear Mom and Dad,

It has now been three months since I left for college.
I have been remiss in writing this and I am very sorry
for my thoughtlessness in not having written before.
I will bring you up to date now, but, before you read
on, please sit down.

YOU ARE NOT TO READ ANY FURTHER UNLESS YOU ARE SITTING
DOWN.
OKAY!

Well then, I am getting along pretty well now. The
skull fracture and the concussion I got when I jumped
out of the window of my dormitory when it caught fire
shortly after my arrival are pretty well healed now. I
only get those sick headaches once a day.

Fortunately the fire in the dormitory and my jump were
witnessed by an attendant at the gas station near the
dorm, and he was the one who called the fire
department and the ambulance.

He also visited me at the hospital and, since I had
nowhere to live because of the burned out dormitory,
he was kind enough to invite me to share his apartment
with him. It's really a basement room, but it's kind
of
cute.

He is a very fine boy and we have fallen deeply in
love and are planning to be married. We haven't set
the exact date yet, but it will be before my pregnancy
begins to show.

Yes, Mother and Dad, I am pregnant. I know how much
you are looking forward to being grandparents and I
know you will welcome the baby and give it the love,
devotion and tender care you gave me when I was a
child.

The reason for the delay in our marriage is that my
boyfriend has some minor infection which prevents us
from passing our pre- marital blood tests,and I
carelessly caught it from him. This will soon clear up
with the penicillin injections I am having daily.

I know you will welcome him into our family with open
arms. He is kind and,although not well educated, he is
ambitious. Although he is of a different race and
religion than ours, I know your often expressed
tolerance will not permit you to be bothered by the
fact that his skin color is somewhat different than
ours.

I am sure you will love him as I do. His family
background is good too, for I am told that his father
is an important gun-bearer in the village from which
he came.

Now that I have brought you up to date, I want to tell
you that the truth is there was no dormitory fire, I did not have a
concussion or a skull fracture.I was not in the
hospital, I am not pregnant, I am not engaged. I do
not have syphilis and there is no man in my life.

However, I am getting a 'D' in History and an 'F' in
Science and I wanted you to see those marks in the
proper perspective. Anyway this news is better than
those above.

Your Loving Daughter.

The point of this? i hope i don't have to resort to these kinda letter IF i fail any subjects. Hope that never happens.

If I Knew

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.

There will always be another day
to say "I love you," and certainly there's
another chance to say our "Anything I can do?"
But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

Joke
Here's something that i got from Sean. Well at least it's still counted as a blog.

SeanWoods (11:32 AM) :
One day, Pete complained to his friend, "I caught my finger in a door and it really hurts. I guess I should go see a doctor." His friend said, "Don't do that. There's a computer at the drug store that can diagnose anything quicker and cheaper than a doctor. Simply put in a sample of your urine, and the computer will diagnose your problem and tell you what you can do about it. It only costs $10.00." Pete figured he had nothing to lose, so he filled a jar with a urine sample and went to the drug store. Finding the computer, he poured in the sample and deposited the $10.00. The computer started making some noise and various lights started flashing. After a brief pause, out popped a small slip of paper which read: You have a moderate finger sprain. Soak your finger in warm water, avoid heavy labor. It will be better in two weeks. That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was and how it would change medical science forever, he began to wonder if this could be fooled. He decided to give it a try. He mixed together some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, and urine samples from his wife and daughter. To top it off, he picked his nose and put it into the concoction. He went back to the drug store, located the computer, poured in the sample and deposited the $10.00. The machine again made the usual noises, flashed lights, and printed out the following analysis: Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. Your daughter is using cocaine. Put her in a rehabilitation clinic. Your wife is pregnant . . . twin girls. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. And if you don't stop picking your nose, your finger will never get better.

Just Another Week

Still just a normal week. I'll just post up my horoscope. My exams are in about a months time, i hope some of you guys will pray for me. I booked a ticket for returning to Malaysia on the 3rd. Can't wait for the mamak stalls and all other good things Malaysian.

Wasabe Incident

wasabe wasabe oh what a wonderful taste,
it seems like a desert that may be sweet,
but what a suprise, (just look at you face)

Oops I did it again

Well so much for the 35%, i think i have to double my efforts for the integral portion to make up for it. Reality that in 5 weeks time we the exams has finally sunk in. Let's see if i can still maintain the no-fail record. Just spent a bomb on 2 new books, one Ogata and another is Nillson, control theory and circuit theory respectively. I think the stress level has about peaked hopefully it'll mellow down from here. I'll try to manage my sleep better.

Oh i attended church here. Interesting is the word that i could use. Well i appreciated it, there's nothing better than a religous gathering that helps calm the nerves. I just checked out the religious centre for Thevada Buddhism, nope didn't see it, well i'll find it eventually.

Well time to hit the books.

Weekend is here

Bombed out in a test earlier today. Then we got the whole weekend to study for a 35% exam on Monday. Just came back from marshall avenue. Fell in front of TV woke up about 1. I missed half of Blue Sub No. 6! Better make the best of this time for sleep.

Anzac Day
I finally brought myself to go down to Clayton to buy some groceries and a printer. Not fun to carry stuff which are a quarter of my body weight. Plus i got of the buss 3 stops before the intended one. What a duffus. Anyway ECE3302 was almost a waste of time, except that the ending we actually learnt abit about setting up a PLC. Hung at marshalls for the night. Saw Samurai Jack and 3-4 episodes of Futurama. Now i'm tired and i'm waiting for my stupid laundry.

And today it's Anzac Day. It's something like our hari pahlawan back in Malaysia. Well that's as far as i know about it.

Paintball!

Left for Coldstream abotu 7.40. Then played paintball the whole day. After the whole experience, i respect the work of the peace keepers, as well as any military related missions. It may seem fair for us to criticise the actions or rather the lack of them without us being in their place. I got to experience the simulations of such militatry confrontations.

Within the first minute of the first game, i was the first to get shot. And when you're in any invironment, there is nowhere safe because you can get hit anywhere. We were given protective headgear and we used plastic pellets filled with paint. The impact may only cause bruises if hit on the body but if hit on the head and hands can cause bleeding. Now if we were talking abot real life, any shot could spell the end of a life.

We sometimes take life for granted when we hear about the road death statistic, conflicts in other countries as well as murders. We just take it in and just accept them as a fact of life: shit happens. I just want people to just imagine how a death would be like, i assume it would be painful, and traumatic (like being shot in the face as well as the whole body simultaneosly in an oncoming attack). You'll feel pain, anger, confusion, and you see only the coloured blur (headshot) and you have to surrender and you have to leave the game. That's paintball, for real life there is no returning to the game.

I suppose death would be all that as well as all the other emotions that might occur at the very instance of death, it would be more than a 100 folds of that. Take that feeling (try to imagine it) and then multiply by every death statistics you see. I think we'll value more of our lives that way. Wouldn't want to take THAT for granted.

So when you think of paintball. Think of death, think of pain.
