life is never at equilibirum

"but this will never happen because
the world is never at equilibrium" Dr. Kenny Tan

and how true it is...
life has never been at equilibrum
but if life is at equilibrium, there wont be any excitement
but sometimes, at least for me, how i wish that
life was at equilibrium
that it may remain constant
that things will juz go well with no hurdles
or it'll juz be constantly happy
instead of fluctuating emotions

haihzzz....
how i wish things were juz achieve equilibrium
and stay there.... haihzz
i guess today's an emo day
everybody's very emo today....
(i know not every1 la jubs, but lets juz keep it that way)

haihzzzzzzzz
when will this ever cease
and when will this achieve equilibrium
i really dunno
its time to face my worst nightmare i guess

plz Lord, strenghten me
and plz help me make the right decision
shield us from all harm
and plz watch over us
and walk with us
in our darkest moments
amen

i brought upon him
and put him through
and
after all the things that
i've done to him,

he found it in his heart to forgive me
and still able to call me a friend
and a brother.

for a friend like u i can never ever find again
and i thank God that u'r still my friend
and i pray that u'll find peace
and for a better future

rest assured that i'll be there,
no matter what

thanks for everything ^^

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince


well, to start it off, i bought this tickets a day before the movie. which was decent la.
got good seats and stuff. i read the book already. n me as a not really typical guy,
i do love romance stories ^^
anyway, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince aint tooooooooooooo bad though
some parts were done nicely and stuff.

especially the settings and camera angles, that did the trick to adding
a whole different mood into the harry potter movie series
but when u compare it to the book, well, lets juz say its not up to par.
or really it juz cannot be compared.

well, they made an ok choice in choosing the cast for Ginny,
i guess the producers didnt know Ginny was gonna be Harry's lover
and hence pushing her from being juz another actress into
one of the main actress. (i think they were guessing Hermione) hahaha
anyway, actress Bonnie Wright (Ginny) is oh well, okla~~~~~

anyway, back to the story, i mean,
graphics, superb
casting, superb
settings, superb
camera, superb
directing, superb
storyline and book adaptations........... errrrr............. u guess la

all in all. its an ok movie la. 2 hrs 30 mins run time. well, if u ask me
i rather prefer that they make a similiar replica of the book, not caring
bout the runtime. if they actually do that. i'll watch even if it means
10 hrs of run time. hey, i guess what all of us really want is a
perfect replica of the book to be on screen.
well, at least thats what i want la
anyway, all in all, okla~~~
hahahaha

Video Accomplish

WOOOOOOOOTTTT!!!!!!
i've finished the YA.TV video already ^^
and way sooner than expected.
dunno what drive me last night...
errrr......
more appropriately this morning to finish it up
i finished at 6.17am ^^

hehehehehehhee
anyway 1st tried using windows movie maker
and.......
er............
lets juz say the functions are uber limited

so i downloaded corel, ulead video studio and yes,
it all came back to me.
it was the video editing programme that i was trained with
so yeah. got all my skills back in an instant.
so i did the video.
then i realized that eventhough the background noise
made the movie a bit realistic, it was kinda too noisy
with the background music (BGM)
and all.

so i downloaded a video to mp3 converter
and audacity, as recommended, to solve the problem
so what i did was juz convert the video's audio
into an mp3
then open the mp3 in audacity
acquire the noise profile of the noise i wanna remove,
and remove that noise in the entire video
well, have to do this again and again for each individual videos la
then mute the audio in the video, and insert the edited
noise removed ones into the track
edit the timelines so it synchronizes smoothly
(and not have lip and voice lag. i hate that alot =.=")
and voila. no background noise ^^

only 1 problem to this. if i dun choose
the lowest rate at which the noise is remove,
the voices in the videos will be very pitchy
so i had to remove very minimal of background noise.
but as a result, the background noise
becomes more of a high frequency disruption
so can hear the background noise becomes a very annoying
high frequency distortion,
if i wanna retain the original voices and not change the pitch
(if not kelly and kelly gonna kill me when their voices
becomes chipmunks, and yes, i made the song "Solution"
into a chipmunk version while i was at it.
hahahahahaha)

but oh well, the BGM managed to mask most
of the noise disruption in the background la
so hopefully it turns out fine.
anyway i did 1 with original background noise
and 1 with filtered background noise
so i hope all of u enjoy the video ^^
and plz comment on it as this is my first video
for YA!teens

hehehe
if u wanna see the video, then plz do come
and join us for our
GTAK youth concurrent service
this sunday 19th July 2009
10.30am ~ 12.30pm

cya there ^^

lovely night

i picked up the phone....
shud i? or shud i not? if i do....
what would be the consequence?
i.....

hey, hi, er.... i didnt mean to.....
huh? oh nothing....
haha.... juz being random i guess?
haha....

i guess it wasnt so bad after all
we would have small talk...
i would ask u bout ur day, bout ur week,
and u would ask bout mine.

feelings sparks...
and thats how my heart would yearn for u
for every word u say, would brighten my day
and u would light up my life, even in the depths of night,
i would still feel ur warmth....
how i wish i could hold u close...

but even so.... u r so close... n yet so far.....
and i dream.... dreaming that it was not pretend.....
that i was with u...
that i could hold u in my arms....

and when the lovely night ends....
reality snaps back...
and i am lost once again....

Lights!!! Camera!!! ACTION!!!

okla.... technically we didnt have dedicated lighting,
nor do we have dedicated mics and stuff but hey,
we have the same thing they used to film
quarantine and cloverfield ^^

well, nuff said. kelly and kelly has done a great job once again
applause ppl~~~ they deserve it
oh oh, and not forgetting miss director
she deserves an applause for dedication. hey, this work's not easy at all u know
and.... i'm juz the cameraman ^^
oh well, i'm left to do with the editing
wah~~ so long i didnt do editing stuff le
the last time i did video editing was like.... ages ago
and i did a trailer ^^
hey, my trailer good ok. the instructor looked at mine and was like
u do one or its the original trailer???
i was like........ =.=""""""""""
hey, dun doubt my capabilities ok

okla.... basically i'm off to editing la.
lolz..... hopefully it turns out good.
its so fun to edit~~~~~
WHEEEE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Phase 2: Disappointing 1st Coat Primer =.=

well..... as u guys know....
i was gonna spray my 1st primer coat 2day...
BUT....
my 1st coat of primer didnt come out nice T_T
crap la...............haihzz....
i thought if i cannot see the dust n if i cannot feel the dust
it'll be fine

how i know..
once i sprayed it on, the dust all buldged out
like freaking daisies~~~
ARGHHH~~~

great la... so yup.
have to sand it flat once again.
supposedly i'm suppose to wipe it with
denatured alchohol or use a tack cloth
to remove the dust n prevent the
surface from being statically charged
which is attracting all the dust particle.
i went to 2 hard ware shop n they dunno
what on earth is that =.="
gone case...
apparently i googled that denatured alcohol
is any alcohol not suitable for consumption
errr.....
apparently spirit methyl
could be used.
i'll try and see how la =.=
sianz laaaaaaa

n also how to do vinyls?!??!
any1 knows how to do vinyls??
i thought i could cut out using
a blade or scissors...
i was so wrong....

i think i got juz bad cutting skills la
eh wait...
i'm good with the saw....
hm......
oh well........
have to try again lo~~~~
see how things go.....

Finally got Starting: Project Laptop Cosmetics Surgery ^^

Finally, my project has begun, and its been a crazy day.
have u tried sanding for 4 and a half hrs?
no? u shud try then ^^

well, started by stripping my com.
so scared. unscrewing EVERYTHING for the FIRST TIME >.< this is the keyboard part there la. hahaha. stripped everything
wanted to remove the metal piece also.
but apparently cannot. so nvm lathe keyboard base panel stripped off. haha.....
can see motherboard and stuff la. ^^
for all u ppl who nvr seen the insides of a laptop before ^^
this is the keyboard. i'm thinking of changing the keyboard
to 1 with red led backlight ^^the keyboard base which is plastered and ready to be sanded.

all the covers plastered up. hehe. the back i use a pvc transparent
plastic to avoid dust and later paint to go inside. still got
components and wires inside that i cannot remove.
so have to protect la ^^

and after 4 and a half hrs of wet sanding.....

TADA~~~~~~
looks a bit scratchy but felt smooth like silk. superb.
started with 180 grit, then 320 grit, 400 grit
and finished off with 600 grit.
the keyboard base i didnt sand the paint off
too much details there i scared i spoil it.
so juz sand till smooth with 400 and 600 grit
only some parts i removed the paint ^^
will be starting with the primer 2moro ^^
hopefully this project will be a success la
hand very tired.
1st time i sand till so long....

i can get a headache juz looking at it

and for the most funkiest one i bought.
this pic is it while its still in a cube, solved.

looks ok? to me it did. not until i started turning it around
now.....
TRANSFORM!!!!!
yup. every piece has a different shape. but its still capable of turning
and hence makes it very very confusing.
seriously its the most funkiest looking one.

but oh well, guess what? i already solved it this morning ^^

i was like.....
WHAT ON EARTH IS THERE TO SEE HERE??!?!??!
