Suddenness

July 18, 2008

Things sure can creep up at one at the most unexpected of times… well, not that the case at hand was really that unexpected but… yeah, it was a surprise attack kind of suddenness, just that it isn’t a very pleasant one.

As mentioned before, my grandfather is hospitalized for cancer. And a moment ago, we just got news that his condition worsened and it has reach the point that he is starting to have difficulty in breathing.

So… me and my family will be at Ipoh till further notice. If things don’t get worse, I should be back by Sunday. In the worst case scenario… I dunno… >__> Therefore, ’till further notice’.

Anti-photogenic

July 17, 2008

The way today went by were identical to that of yesterday where I left home at 9:30am and got home at around 5pm. Difference is that today is where our photos will be taken rather than videos (but there is a guy/girl/somebody with a camera lurking around random corners from time to time anyway so I guess technically a video is still being taken).

It has been years since I had any of my photos taken without me demonstrating resistance. Everything is fine as long as the photos stay where they were meant to be I guess.

Things were a lot more arranged and well executed today. Things were done pretty quickly because of that but we were still delayed in a few instances where we had to wait for one or a few person who were late from wherever they went.

Anyway, things went fine. Those who are in-charge of publicity have to attend another meeting on Wednesday next week to present their respective progress on their respective responsibilities regarding the showcase. I am one of those in-charge or publicity btw orz

Fakering

July 15, 2008

Went to college and acted in a trailer thing. It’s for our final showcase that we will be holding at the end of this semester.

It’s my first time in some recorded acting so… err… yeah… got to be thankful that they were using digital video cameras rather than film cameras. It was also one of the more messy production process; no written scripts and every action had to be impromptu. That part kind of got to me since I was given two separate descriptions of how my character was supposed to be… contradicting ones.

Anyway, we eventually got it done after spending the entire day there. The production left quite some casualties at its wake too like for example one of my friend’s neck, that same friend’s car’s front bumper, one of the production crew’s friend’s car’s self-retracting side mirror, and my face (nothing serious, srsly, but still noteworthy).

Tomorrow’s the photo shooting sessions omg.

Rearrangement

July 14, 2008

The last time I updated the playlist in my media player was probably about a full year ago. Since then, all the newer releases that I listen to I would just throw in some temporary playlist, which changes almost every hour.

I ended up in my former main music folder the other day and thought “wtf, where is my Alstromeria Records?! D:”, which is how it all started. It struck me that I really should be updating my music folder and renaming all those folders to conform with my arrangement methods.

So I spent much of today just renaming folders and moving things out of my xdcc folder/any other random places into my music folder. The folder gained 10GBs instantly. I will update my playlist in the player tomorrow, still have some loose ends to deal with before I can do that.

Random thoughts

July 13, 2008

I had quite a number of those today, just that I can’t really remember most of them by now. All I remember was that i thought they were very clever and intriguing, yeah.

And I am mostly done with all those things I brought back from Kinokuniya the other day. Tsugumomo and Nekogami Yaoyorozu was pretty good, while Touhou Bougetsushou and Mirai Nikki was great as usual.
