HAI! I'm back again.
So my new comp came back, and rather predictably, the first things I stuck myself onto are games. But I guess I have to force myself to stop, or refrain from playing so much, soon.
With hard work comes results, a principle I've known, but living by it only reluctantly, because I believe talent wins over hard work. Not that my beliefs can override the !@^%$^# of the education system, so it all boils down to adaptation.
With my revamped comp, I can do many more things that I've always wanted but limited by my hardware, or the lack thereof, previously. So now, I can do more, like, large scale Photoshop, Flash, C++, Sony Vegas, and countless others. That's why I dont even know where to begin. Maybe, I will start with my studies. That's going to be much more useful in the short term.
I wonder, if conflicting beliefs can overlap. "Pessimists see the difficulty in every opportunity; Optimists see the opportunity in every difficulty" is something I read somewhere. It's kind of hard to live with just one side, for if you are an out and out optimist, you will fail to learn from your mistakes, for "Mistakes are only mistakes when you fail to learn from them". If you only see opportunities, you will fail to see where you went wrong, since everything, good or bad, that happens is your responsibility, whether it is or it is not your fault. And the same goes for pessimists; if you keep staring at the door which closed on you, you will never notice other doors which are open for you. Temperance is best.
Oh yes, I realised, it was National Day yesterday. Didnt do nuts for it, since I was busy with my computer. And I read somewhere that the public alarm system would ring at 8.22pm for the pledge, but too bad it didnt, so I missed it too.
Cant wait for Family day's carnival.
I know I've been grunting about this since forever, but I'm going to do it again.

That's kind of a change from what I used to dislike. I dont dislike people, but I dislike the the lack of effort being put in for english. Hello? It's motherfucking-easy-english? Granted, not everyone has a good foundation to base their skyscrapers on, but it's not to say a little effort to strengthen the base will hurt. It may be ignorant to judge from a view from a pedestal, but that's the harsh reality where english is the most common medium of communication in almost everywhere. A step for english, a stride for yourself?
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODERATION.
