Woke up this morning and saw Hippo trying to support the big cushion with his nose tip. Maybe he thought the cushion was going to drop on him...
Anyway, helped mom to wash the veggies and found it to be a very boring and tedious job. Washed 2 packets and I was just imagining what my mom has to go through everyday when she cooks for the family especially so when I was cutting the corn, it was tough. Not only you have to wash EVERY single leaves in 1 stem, you got to check that there's no eggs, remove the leave if there's alot of holes and if it's turning yellowish.
Thought I'd try taking an artistic photo of the flower using my compact camera.
Mom was like "this is nice".
Me: Yea, this is the nice flower that we are all going to eat later.
So, after lunch, I went on cleaning the house and started packing my room.. Actually it's more of my snail pals letters. Pack, clean, and also switched the xbox360 place with the PS3 because my small fan was spoilt, or somehow the part-time helper did not place the blade properly and it could not move when switched on. And as I have never attached the wireless connector onto the xbox before save the USB, so I was quite impressed with myself when I figured it out and it looked pretty cool with the xbox. :D
I didn't know there was another USB port at the back till today. :P
Somehow the Xbox reminded me of the da ge da handphone with its antenna at the back. Lol.

Okay... 31st August 2010 and 14 September 2010 have been very meaningful to me.
I was invited to a Halo Fan's event in August and it was really some experience. I'm a shy girl by nature (Don't laugh!) and to be surrounded by 29 other boys (yes, I'm the only girl there and I think majority of them are at least younger than me by one cycle), I kept my mouth clam shut. I did get to chat with this guy. So, we get to meet up with the Bungie Developers, Chris Opdahl and David Allen. Seriously man, this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience! I do hope to get to ask them questions which were bugging me but the time frame was too short. After a preview of Halo:Reach opening and running the spartan around in the game, we get to have a photo session with them and also to try out the game too! I was unable to post the photo which I'd took with them as well as with the Master Chief because of the stupid iphone 4. It was really difficult to sync with my computer as compared to my all-time favourite blackberry. I did not try the new game because I'd love to save the best for the last, to keep my anticipation for the launch and fully embrace it when it happens!
**Side track: iphone 4 is just my gaming phone whereas my bb is my phone**
You see, we get just an hour with them and the queue for photo taking was long enough, followed by them having to sign the posters for us fans. After which, there were some fans chatting with them, which I suddenly felt kinda self-concious because the questions that I'm going to ask will not be relevant to the new game. My game room is so going to be plaster with Halo Poster, figurine and more! I was even thinking of painting the Reach's picture on one side of the room!
I'm glad to have continue with my errands for that day though.. Like going to Centrepoint to collect my specs, pre-order my Halo Reach Console and bumping into Joy there. She's super cool and pretty and I was really happy to see her there! xD
Meeting up with Clifton as well. A day well spent!

14 September 2010
I'd check out Xbox post on Halo and saw that some will queue as early as 8am! I didn't think it was that bad initially, I mean, this is Singapore and what can be worse than queuing up for rides at Tokyo Disneyland?
Clifton told me that the queue was really long and wasn't moving much. I wasn't really panicking and took my time to reach Funan Mall. When I reached there, I was like "WOW!!". Perhaps queuing for rides at Tokyo Disneyland had trained me enough that I wasn't really pissed and also expect the queue to snake around. Total time spent on queuing was closed to two hours! By the time we were queuing in Funan Mall, we were entertained by the emcee and contestants on stage. I tell you, the stage's background was "fantastic!". Again, I wasn't able to post it here because it was in my iphone. Gotta check out my fb in order to see it.
I tell you, all that wait was really worth it! The black box (tempts me to play Halo Wars again) was really cool! It wasn't just a plain ol' black box but was plastered with "Property of UNSC", those barcodes and all. It doesn't matter that it's all marketing gimmicks because it was done up really well and made the spending all worthwhile!
The Front
The side
This was found on the outside
And when you open the top portion, you'll see this yet again! Cool!!
Inside
Even the stylofoam was emboss with this
Slide out the small box, you'll see the game!
Greeting you was the top secret notice upon removing the game.
And this! See, even the sticker has the UNSC logo! Not only that, not some cheap simple plastic but those thick "piak piak" plastic containing... you guess!
Diary of Dr. Catherine Halsey!! Plus her employee pass, and other documents. What I love about her diary was the scribbing and little random drawings. Although I know she do not exist in the real world but the person who did these was really creative!
Very ser bu de remove the plastic because I intend to save it for my game room, where I'll have a glass cabinet and place all these treasures inside. xD
So you just gotta make do with this.
Even down to the fine details - their big guns
Next... my Halo Reach Console. Also very ser bu de to remove the console, so I'm still using the big one. Ey, got gan qing one hor. Super ser bu de lor. Sigh.
Last but not the least, just for Master Lil only. My mini collection of Halo. I'm going to buy the OST but not this year. Spent enough liao. Lol.
This time, I'm not going to chiong all the way just to quickly finish the game for the storyline but will play at my own leisure so that I'll not suffer any withdraw.
PS: There were TWO spartans on the launch day, but I'd missed the opportunity to take photo with them because I didn't see them!! :(

I'd been looking for this song "Mad World" for quite a while and as I didn't know the song title, hence I'd reached a deadend then.. Till one of my admin boy played this song on youtube. YES!
As the version he'd opened was sung by Adam Lambert and I know that I have to search for the original singer. Result was quite... unexpected. It was sung by Tears for Fears!!! There, I found out they sang "Everyone wants to Rule the World"!
Anyway, back on track.... I found where Mad Originated from in Wiki and I gotten something more! "Mad World" was the background music in Gears of War trailer! How cool is that?!
Sit back and enjoy.. The trailer of GOW w/ Mad World and Adam Lambert's version of Mad World. I simply adore that song. xD
Tears for Fears ROCKS!!!!!

I'd just realised that ALL my photos (save for 2010) were totally GONE!!! Damn!!! I'd unwittingly transferred them all to my external HDD (which I thought was my trusty ol' friend) all because of wanting a friend to pass me an anime series which my thumbdrive was unable to fit in all. I should have made an extra copy elsewhere (burn it into a disk or something). Very heartpain ah!
I know this is going to be a very stupid question I'm going to ask but.. is there ANY way of retreiving information from a crashed HDD? Seriously speaking, I have absolutely no idea how my external HDD will creash on my friend's computer when it was working perfectly fine on mine. Ugh!!!! Now there only old photos I have are going to be those edited pictures dating back to 2007 only!!! I just want to cry in anguish!
By the way, Master Lil, sorry to keep you waiting with my latest collections but... I'd placed an order for the Halo Limited Edition Console which I'll be collecting on next Tuesday along with my Halo Reach Legendary Limited Edition pack! So...... CHOTTO MATTE KUDASAI!!!! m(_._)m
In the meanwhile, you can check out my fb!!! I posted some there. heh.
Going off to nurse my very pain heartache...
