The crusade against deliberate cuteness

Still searching for my voice. And it seems like I can’t accept a mountain’s fate and always assume a rolling stone. But does it ever accomplish anything? If we keep moving on after we’re through, how long does that memory stay with you until we phase it? And was it  of any significance if we’re just to toss it away? So why do we choose to do it in the first place? And how long did it take to arrive at such a point? And do we think that decision we made will make the world a better place? How much selfishness are we allowed to escalate within a society’s system to live rather than to exist? Why is emotion always a critical barrier or catalyst behind any motive? Is this human?

How concerned are you about the education system in terms of quality; are the lecturers doing enough to drive us, as students to achieve the best in ourselves? With three semesters finally over, I sat back and stared at the ceiling thinking about the system. It does not matter what major you chose, I bring your attention to the fact that no longer are we on a competitive advantage as a majority. Students from Lim Kok Wing competing institutions have surpassed us in our specialty, they have branches in the United Kingdom for crying out loud. True, you attended the headmaster’s motivational speech but after hearing all that talk, why are only a handful of us within his inner-circle? What about the rest of us

The Wrath of the Assignments Tsunami

Face it, "exploration week" has been phased out. Time’s majority is spent on virtually nothing but completing homework. Day after day, we get shoveled an unhealthy dose of tasks at the brink of neck’s breath. Look, you paid good money, (your parents money I assume) for change.. but look what you got out of it. And now you gotta deal with that. So let’s say you have five subjects in one semester, and for that subject alone you’re expected to commit a hundred percent towards it. Therefore you have to find a way to bestow five hundred percent in total. Is this even possible for a super human? Let me break that down to period of three months, whereby one major subject could possibly have:

  • 2 major projects
  • 8 weekly assignments
  • 3 sub presentations
  • 2 examinations

And that’s just for one subject.. Now look, I know what you’re thinking, "why are you complaining too much? Shut the hell up and get back to work!". But see that’s the problem, we’re doing nothing but work work work. All day, everyday. All work and no play. Is this what you really call learning?

The naive Industry & the lack of International Exposure

If we are to compete on a global battlefield, we obviously need light from abroad. There’s absolutely nothing wrong hireling local lecturers please don’t hold that against me you can’t help feeling caged. Your experience is limited to this realm alone. You feel… sometime’s you’re just.. trapped. Other universities rectified this a long time ago, hell even making it a standard to have disclosure.  We have lectures that don’t even know the correct timeline of our classes. They admit being lazy, these so-called professionals. My question to you is, are we satisfied with the professionalism, integrity, spirit and drive our current lecturers have?

The glorious absence of sophistication

Group projects, weather you like it or not brings out the best and worst in us. Sometimes we are the greatest enemy. Lecturers in their infinite wisdom judge who is ’strong’ or who is ‘weak’, pitting one ’strong’ along with four other weaklings assuming them to save their asses. This in my humble opinion is complete b.s.

Think about this.. What are we really supposed to accomplish?

Why are we being subjected to these odds? Are we receiving the best quality education? We paid for it, so are you satisfied? Do you think this you as a student you receive fair and equal treatment, from your lecturers and classmates? Is this system so perfect that you embrace to your bosoms with open hands in that you’re confident of your future?

Being offline can really show how dependent you are on the Internet. So I came back. One of my cousins has tied the knot and to think how time flies is a crime. The really nice thing about being a Filipino and being born in Malaysia puts you in a situation where (to be continued)

…anyway I’ll be updating soon

As a direct consequence to our monstrous appetite for instant gratification, we pay the price of three hours to Blizzard’s emergency repair crew. Maybe taking a break from WoW for seven days might seem like a good idea after all. My plans to level Kiyoshi to 50 stalled. Ah well, at the end of the day it’s only a game. Let’s play Kane’s Wrath.. *barf* Enjoy the launch of the Lich King. Have fun. I’m outta here.

Numerous players are now jumping into Northrend  or preparing to finish the remaining quests and leveling at the seventy’s Outlands, how is it even possible to find a party within the range of 1-60? The simple truth is, it isn’t. So I create my own luck. This is my current multibox setup for leveling my alt. I have control over four WoW accounts, two currently active. So before I leave, thou shall enlightened how I cheat professionally in this game on my way up the sewers of the pre burning crusades. With the help of a few macros it makes the game a little smoother. However it would be nice to get a desktop that can run five accounts simultaneously. I’d make a shaman army like one of my guildies did.

  1. My defunct noisy Macbook Pro living on borrowed time controls my priest
  2. My four year old Acer Aspire possess my friend’s 70 rogue
  3. 2 keyboards, one controller. Me Boom De Ah Dah
  4. My 2.5 year old Diamond Razor. Still works like a sexy girl. :3

I have my goals stated clearly:

  • Klonoa - DPS + PVP + CashCow
  • Kiyoshi - Primary Healer (Groups + Raids)
  • New DeathKnight - Primary Tank

More to come soon stay tuned. Basu Gasu Baku Hatsu. Haa Hii! ARA ARA KINSHIIN!029bd99cdae3cdbc99d7b7d95ef86759082085f8

Alright I’m calmed down. With so many disruptions to the WoW server, it’s only natural that I’d be a bit disarrayed. Haa Hii. Before I had back home to Philippines I want to make a couple of adjustments to the Kuronoir mesh. One of the most notable ones is deliberately pitting our class MMo71 against MMo75 my first class when I first re-joined the One. It keeps things pretty:) Haa Hii. I’ll see if I’m in the mood to make any other changes.. Expect the unexpected *shot down for horrible cliche * A little off topic - Isn’t Akari the best… Yes she is… For her to choose Ai as her disciple.. is decent. Haa Hii.

Haa Hii.

Can you believe this? Blizzard’s latest maintain session has just caused some of the tier sets to be removed of the pre-requisites  ratings. In other words, free epics! Look at how desperate these players are.. Greed. Lust.. It’s all in us. The players that worked hard to earn these items spent months farming Arenas.. now it’s nothing but welfare. All of us here need to be severely punished. Beaten up. That probably includes me. But I’m not interested in doing this. I’ve got work to do. I confess! I took some! but they were useless , why do Warriors need intellect? So I deleted them after that. Pfft. There’s no challenge. Take them. Take them all you greedy faggots. Look at you all. So much for those civilities and ideals to be  American or European. You are all hopeless degenerates of a level that only the enlightened can tolerate. I hope you keep doing this because it’s keeping the rest zones peaceful.

Rather than falling into a delusional state of mediocrity, going emo from Blizzard’s non-surprising announcement of their servers being offline longer than expected, I decided to clean my desktop. So here’s the proof. See! I’m not lying :3 This will be my last day of this week in Malaysia. I wonder how the weather is like in Manila, I could have sworn I saw a headline about some typhoon aftermath last night…

2008Nov11000147_10253I don’t believe this! There is such a big fan community for Macross or Gundam but this totally made my day. Provided that I buy it ROFLMAO. There’s like no more space in my tiny room to display her but isn’t she a beauty… What? You have not seen the series yet? It’s great chef’s recommendation! plus Yukikaze was done by Gonzo Animation so the quality’s superb… just like this 1/100 scale ver. Yes it is sexy indeed.
