CSv1.6
Tried out Valves’ Steam 2.0 program today (after an unsuccessful try few months ago), and what else can you do with Steam but to try out CSv1.6 with it? Heh.. after a few rounds of test-fraggin online, its not bad I say… esp the new guns, ricochet sounds, game physics and game interface. But overall, the game still feels shaky at 60-100fps even with a constant ping of around 37-80. I guess, with so many spoilers in the mod, thats the old halflife engine struggling there. Anyway with Halflife2 in the line of new soon-to-come games, we will see, we will see…. *grins*
For all to wOOoo and enjoy, to download Steam 2.0, head to the downloads section.
Mmm, now to cautiously and wisely spend my remainding 5 hours on mainland before heading back to tekong camp… *sighs*

Just for laughs.
Just came back from a late night show, Charlie Angels- full trottle. And these are shows which makes you wonder how ridiculous certain stunts can possibility turn out into- all with pin-point accuracy and its “always something there for them!” All in hand, it appeals to the general audience with a all good happy ending (like the prince marrying the princess and they all lived happily ever after). Oh well, at least I can commend on the effort into it, not bad overall. *grins*
On now on a-side note, a different topic, wanna try something funny? Just do this:
- Go to, google.com home page
- Type “weapons of mass destruction” in the search field.
- Hit the “I am feeling lucky” button.
- Read the error message carefully… Hehe
And Mmm yea, frozen throne is out already retailing at a soild $49.90 ouch!

Wonders of tidying your room
As chaotic as it looks, its time I started tidying my room… again! And heck didn’t know doing so can land you into a flu, not to mention the amount of dust lifted in the process, talking bout sensitive noses… :p
*time passes* And so everything’s much neater now, personally speaking and did get to “unearth” several old stuffs I’ve not seen for sometime, namely old school bios, photos and such, does bring back lots of old memories. Oh well, it would be sometime before I start the next summer-cleaning up too. 😀 *duh*
On national serivce, time really pass very fast in camp and I am already onto the 3rd (of the 10th week) of BSLC in the specialists’ school. Did really get to learn lots of interesting stuffs there, namely handling genade launchers, LAWS, SAWS, mines and signal sets. And man! they are definately more devastating than what you get to experience in computer games *grins*. Would be “choinging” next week, time to get down and dirty again…
Warcraft3 Frozen throne would be out in 2 days time, would be looking forward to that. Games to look forward to these few months:
yipeez!

Creative, not-so-good warehouse sale
And yup, so theres the sale going on at Creative technologies headquarters @ jurong. Went there this morning, reached there at opening time (11am) and heck! 300 people are already there queuing. Queued for some one hour plus (can’t believe I actually did that). Sad to say, everything just kinda sold(ed)-out, darnnn.. so more or less, went back empty handed. Good thing the parking’s free though… but the thing which kinda pissed me off there are the customers there- they are super kiasu. And so it goes on, there are those who can’t stop rushing, cutting queues and there are those who just grab everything in sight, buying things as if everything is free, no $$$ is needed without the care for others… typicals?.. oh well, thats life.
Now for some Battlefield 1942…

Busy Busy
Booked in late afternoon yesterday, so didn’t have time to update on happenings. The first week in Sispec is really one of rush- lessons lectures and practicals. Went out today mostly to buy stores for the course, so quite busy. *looking at the calender* and hey! Creative warehouse would be having a sale next week, would be going with my good old friend Geoffery. Check out their site at www.creative.com for more info.
Would be watching “The Hulk” next week with my NS friends

Ritz Carlton Millenia Singapore Buffet Dinner
Had dinner at Ritz Carlton Millenia today as part of the birthday celebration for my sister. The service is very good and the staff are very courteous professional and friendly- things you can expect from the 6 star hotel. We were greeted with very friendly staff who led us to our table facing the glass walls overlooking a garden. The table has a full setting laid- something you don’t see often in most hotel restaurants.
The dinner buffet for the evenings was generous helpings of food from their international buffet, complete with an extensive seafood collection comprising of lobster, clams, oyster, mussels. The selection is not only extensive by very fresh too, especially the oysters. There is also an assortment of Japanese food, serving sushi, sashimi, as well as collections of hot cooked food from western and Asian cuisines (just to name a few). Each diner is also served a complimentary glass of red wine.
The pricing per head is $88++ per head, which was great value for the outstanding food quality. This restaurant possibly ranks high up on quality International buffets in the country which I will strongly recommend if cost is not an objection. The restaurant too has a really dim and romantic ambience I say, with soft classical music being played by the mini live orchestra in the quiet background, a very relaxing place and a good place for a peaceful dinner away from the buzzes of the city too. 🙂

Unit Posting
Well, would be heading back to SFT (Singapore Ferry Terminal) to get my NS posting which would decide whether I get to sweat out or slack for the next 2 years. Hopefully I could get a 9-5 job in an aircon-ed environment with the DSO (defense science organization). Otherwise, I would like to give command school a try, as I don’t wanna waste the 2 years learning nothing too, why not make the best out of it.
Just dun wanna be a rifleman.. *duh*
Mmmmm, and the dumb NUS is still processing my university application, wonder whats taking so long…
