Update in life 30/08/08

So my exams are over and I must say that I did pretty ok. Except for my programming one that is. Hopefully I just managed to pass that. So not exactly sure what I'm going to do for now. Life's not really moving on for me, or maybe it's just that it's progressing very very slowly. Hope you're managing all right yourself over there. Wish I was there to take care of you. Well I'm off now.

Good song

Oliver James - Long Time Coming:

Everybody wants to be loved
Every once in a while
We all need someone to hold on to
Just like a helpless child (yeah)
Can you whisper in my ear
Let me know its all right

It's been a long time coming down this road
and now I know what I've been waiting for
just like a lonely highway
I'm trying to get home, oohooh
Love's been a long time coming.

You can love for a lifetime
You could love for a day
You can think you've got everything but
Everything is nothing when you throw it away (yeah)
Then you look in my eyes
And I have it all once again

It's been a long time coming down this road
and now I know what I've been waiting for
just like a lonely highway
I'm trying to get home, oohooh
Love's been a long time coming.

Life Is An Eternal Bliss

What is eternal happiness?
Is it being happy forever,
Or simply just staying sad-free?
To bliss out, as they say,
Is simply just to become joyful.
Yet how is a depressed person blissful?
Simply, to become happy at the cost of something,
A loss of some some sort.
So no matter what,
No matter how,
Life will always be an eternal bliss.
Some way or another.

I will remember, by Ryan Cabrera:

I, I will remember you
And all of the things that we’ve gone through
There is so much I can say
The words get in the way
So were not together
I will remember… you

You were there when I needed a friend
Thank you thank you
I never told you how much that meant
Gotta thank you thank you

I need to work my way back to you.

I got a hair cut

So, I cut my hair yesterday. I would say it is my best visit ever to the hair salon. I had my usual stylist attend to me and like always, service was good :) So I said that I wanted to make everything really short again and that's what I got. In the end, it turned out pretty good. Then came the part that was looking forward too, the hair wash that's always accompanied by a really good head massaging. For the first time ever, I actually fell asleep for a moment during the head wash. The massage was just that good and it was extra long. After that I felt really refreshed and my head was feeling rather light. Well that's about it.

Decisions

There are some tough decisions ahead of me that are yet to be made. Wonder how things will turn out.



The sun sets as day turns to night. A new day will be born, as life goes on.

Sudoku Challenge

Today my school had this sudoku challenge set up infront of the library and anyone who wanted to try it out could give it a shot. I thought it'd be interesting to try it out myself. The previous night I was rattling my brains out trying the very difficult puzzles in my sudoku book. It took me an hour for the first puzzle. After that, it became easy and I managed to solve one in 20 minutes. So today I felt ready for the challenge, thinking what level they would be giving us. To my surprise, it was not that difficult. In a way, it was easier than my normal leveled puzzles. So I was going at a nice slow pace and suddenly I would find the key numbers and start filling in the rest at a really fast pace. And then I'll come to a stop with the last 10 or so numbers. This was already at the 20 minute mark. I was quite surprised with my timing. I knew that I could finish it withing 25 minutes, but then it happened. For some reason, I made one of the worst mistakes that I could have ever made. I wasn't able to see that one of the crucial numbers placed in a certain box could have had two possiblities. Because of this, I wasted lots of precious time. After making the mistake without realizing, I began to finish up the puzzle till I suddenly saw the error. This was about the 25 minute mark. I quickly tried to re-trace my steps, but couldn't as I had filled them up in a hurry. So I decided to erase the whole thing. It couldn't be helped. Luckily, I managed to fill everything that was correct back into it's place within 5 minutes and figured out my mistake. The puzzle was finished in about 30 minutes or so. It could have been much faster. But oh well. I heard the longest was about an hour. There probably is someone who did much better than me.

Life Goes On.

Daniel's Birthday and more

Well today was Daniel's 19th birthday so a few of us gathered and celebrated it. We had a nice long lunch which was followed by a cake session. Was quite hilarious. So we all enjoyed the lunch and all, and after that some of them had to leave for their own purposes. The remaining lot of us decided to go bowling for a while. We ended up bowling at Marine Cove. But the journey there was the fun part. I didn't want to make the rest who had to sit at the back of Daniel's car feel uncomfortable. So I volunteered to go into the trunk. Always wanted to try it. Took me a while to convince Daniel to let me, and he finally did. It wasn't scary at all, except when we approached a bump at a high speed. It was quite fun actually. Only that I perspired a lot. Scared a few by passers by screaming in the trunk.
After that I headed over to BAS to meat my team mates and play a bit. And later on we had our match. It was quite a breeze through. Made some good passes and played fair D. Had my jaw knocked by one guy by trying to challenge him on his way to the basket. Wasn't intentional on his part. It was all good aggressive play. After that I met up with Daniel and the rest again. Had dinner and just chilled out for a while. It was a pretty good day. Everyone seemed happy.

Nothing new

Well there hasn't been much done this past week. Nothing new, as my post title says. Well I guess there is one thing new. I found this new band called Metro Station, and they're pretty good. And their story of how they actually started and came to be is really interesting. Here's a a music video of one of their best hits called 'Shake It'




Oh, and I've finally managed to buy someone on facebook which I have been trying for weeks :D
