… BIG SIGH OF RELIEF … finally got the midterm over and it wasn’t as hard as i expected. answered every question besides the extra credit. think it went something like this, “who were the antagonist in the battle of theodyte” (don’t think i spelled theodyte correctly). during the practice i was stumped @ every single problem, but i actually managed to complete the stupid midterm today with not much trouble, not sure how much i got right though. probably have tons of small errors.

on my way home today, i had a shocking experience. you know how gophers are afraid of their shadows and we always (well, i did) thought it was silly. i mean it’s a harmless shadow. but today, something happened that changed my perspective. while i was walking home listening to my minidisc, i noticed someone was following me. nothing to worry about, just kept walking along naturally. the person moved closer behind me each and every time i checked, but never before me. suddenly i stopped, turned around and THERE WAS NOBODY. all this time, i have been wary of my own shadow. and trust me, i was really frightened @ the end. could’ve sworn beads of sweat was coming out on a freezing tuesday nite. still sends shiver down my spine every time i remember it.

just completed an anime series called Hack Sign. awesome soundtrack, but storyline got extremely weird. the ending was somewhat satisfying besides the fact that it said: to be continued…

welp, that’s it for tonite folks. tune in tomorrow. ^_^zzz

went to review session today for upcoming cs midterm. this one is going to be a killer. sigh.. wish me luck guys!

thanks to crabyaple for donating this link. welp, there’s 2 things you’re suppose to find on this map here. many including myself has asked the original poster what the heck he wants me to see, but if you study the map carefully, you’ll find 2 specific things you wouldn’t believe existed on a map. i won’t be giving away the answers so if you’re stumped, contact me through email or aim. ^_^x

i’m sorry, but no doodles today. maybe after my cs midterm. ^_^x

ungsunghero: i (and at least 3/4th of my college buddies) have hit a wall
ungsunghero: two depressing points:
ungsunghero: 1) my roommate and i were discussing future plans
ungsunghero: and how college sucks in general
ungsunghero: and especially how, after graduation, life is so uncertain
ungsunghero: even more so than after HS
ungsunghero: and i swear he nearly teared up when he said how much he’d miss our place should he move out after graduation
ungsunghero: (pull out a kleenex, if needed)
ungsunghero: it got worse when my friend IMed me a few minutes ago
ungsunghero: talking about how she was overwhelmed with four classes + work
ungsunghero: plus the fact that she’s had a bout with a week long cold
ungsunghero: she’s considering dropping a class
ungsunghero: which got me thinking…
ungsunghero: boy is life rough!
ungsunghero: i have THREE classes (one lab)
ungsunghero: she has four AND work
Krunk4Ever: same here! high five!
ungsunghero: and i’m the one itch-baying???
Krunk4Ever: well, i’ve had these moments before
Krunk4Ever: future is scarcy
Krunk4Ever: scary*
ungsunghero: while my friend (she’s still fighting her illness, btw) has to struggle with four and work
ungsunghero: isn’t it?
Krunk4Ever: but i figured if i take life one step @ a time
Krunk4Ever: i’ll reach there eventually
ungsunghero: yeah
ungsunghero: but it’s rough when you hit a wall
Krunk4Ever: yah
ungsunghero: but imagine how much worse it is when a bunch of people sympathize (sp?)
ungsunghero: when they’re all crashing into walls
ungsunghero: and, like i said…i’m bitching about three classes!
ungsunghero: and she’s dying over 4 and work
Krunk4Ever: stupid dog, u know that search dog. he starts scratching himself when u leave him idling
ungsunghero: and so is my roommate
ungsunghero: eh?
Krunk4Ever: winxp search
ungsunghero: i see
ungsunghero: anyway…i’m sad
ungsunghero: and i feel bad
ungsunghero: bad in the sense that i’m bitching over 3 classes
Krunk4Ever: dont feel bad.
ungsunghero: bad in the sense that i hit a wall this early in the qtr
Krunk4Ever: what’s life if u can b*tch about it
ungsunghero: and bad that all my friends have hit the same wall
ungsunghero: and i can’
ungsunghero: t do anything about it
ungsunghero: but sit back and watch
ungsunghero: have you ever had to sit back and watch something so horrible, but you knew you couldn’t do anything about it?
ungsunghero: or at least, in a dream?
Krunk4Ever: many times
Krunk4Ever: but since u cant do anything about it, life moves on
ungsunghero: how about in real life?
Krunk4Ever: when u hit a wall. u either stop, climb over, or walk around it
Krunk4Ever: if u see someone hit a wall
Krunk4Ever: and cant help them over
Krunk4Ever: that’s the suggesting u give them
Krunk4Ever: suggestion*
ungsunghero: i don’t understand
Krunk4Ever: what ur friend needs to understand is there are choices u have to make when u hit a wall
Krunk4Ever: although it may have some bad consequences, it beats standing there staring @ it
Krunk4Ever: and when someone complains about something, they’re not really looking @ u to help them solve it
Krunk4Ever: it’s words of comfort and acceptance and acknowledgement they’re looking for
Krunk4Ever: stuff like, ‘i feel ya’, ‘yah, that class is a killer’, ‘i’m dying here over too!’ and etc
Krunk4Ever: only when they ask seriously: “What should i do???”
Krunk4Ever: that’s when they’re requesting for help
ungsunghero: that’s not my problem
ungsunghero: i did offer her my condolences
ungsunghero: i even offered to help her with classes
ungsunghero: (since i’m such a nice guy)
ungsunghero: but it’s just the shock…
ungsunghero: to think that everybody is so messed up
ungsunghero: i just had a “town hall” meeting with my roommates again about how life is so screwed up
Krunk4Ever: remember what kimura said
ungsunghero: and it’s only THIRD WEEk
Krunk4Ever: the chicken w/o the head
Krunk4Ever: well, all college students are like that
Krunk4Ever: well, most
ungsunghero: yeah
ungsunghero: it’s pathetic too
ungsunghero: and i feel for my friends
ungsunghero: i hope the feeling is mutla
ungsunghero: mutual
ungsunghero: i’m so disoriented right now
ungsunghero: you’re the only person i know that hasn’t yet told me that s/he has hit a major wall
ungsunghero: i’m going to bed
ungsunghero: hopefully, you’ll allow me to continue/finish this convo tomorrow
ungsunghero: g’nite
Krunk4Ever: g;nite ^_^zzz
ungsunghero: and aren’t you going to tell me to calm down?
ungsunghero: or to keep cool?
Krunk4Ever: i think i’ve implied that already ^_^x
Krunk4Ever: and u seem calm
Krunk4Ever: just a bit shaken
ungsunghero: definitely
ungsunghero: remember…i’m screwed up
Krunk4Ever: what i’m worried is about that girl friend of yours
ungsunghero: and yet BETTER OFF than others
ungsunghero: oh…that was just the latest example
ungsunghero: my roommate is in the same bind
Krunk4Ever: i c
ungsunghero: 3 MAE classes
Krunk4Ever: im guessing htat’s some really hard classes
ungsunghero: and a lower division class that requires 200 pages of reading/week
ungsunghero: yeah
ungsunghero: mech/aero engineering
ungsunghero: = MAE
Krunk4Ever: yuck
Krunk4Ever: but it sounds like a cool major
ungsunghero: yeah
ungsunghero: i’m worried about many people
ungsunghero: and i know for sure that my roommate worries about me
ungsunghero: i just hope the feeling’s mutual w/everybody else
ungsunghero: thanks for letting me vent
ungsunghero: part 2 is 2m
ungsunghero: haha
Krunk4Ever: np ^_^x
Krunk4Ever: okay
ungsunghero: ZZZ..

sigh… midterm went okay. didnt have enough time to finish though. was stuck on problem 3 and when i checked the clock, it was already 10:37 and i had 23 minutes left to do the remaining 3 problems. sigh…

after we came back from our midterm, liam and i had a interesting discussion about fact. it all started with a snapple cap (which now contains interesting facts). his said, elephants are the only mammal that can’t jump. mine said, there are at least 9 million other people with the same exact birthday as me. i said that’s not a fact, they can never prove that. then liam goes and says it is a fact because it is in reasonable statistical probability. i shot back and said probability isn’t a fact and he replies then nothing is a fact. i said, well i know my birthday is on blah blah. he asks, how did i know? i said, ppl told me, birth certificate, etc. but he says how does that make it a fact? can’t the ppl who told you be wrong? your birth certificate be a mistake. it all comes down to the probability of it being an error is very minuscule. and if the probability is small enough, we recognize it as a fact. i guess my reply to that would be that snapple’s assertion has not been proven because they did not know my birthday and further more the world is approaching 6billion people yielding a average of less than 16million people who are born on the same day. that’s just only an average meaning some days yield more babies while others don’t. i believe i can disprove the likelihood of this probability by pointing out that people who are born on February 29th (leap years) would only have an statistical probability of 4million ppl with the same birthday, almost half of snapple’s prediction. therefore, i believe there is reasonable doubt that this is not a fact.

during my nap today, i noticed something very peculiar. have u ever wonder if your brain runs at a different speed during your sleep? well, i had something like that happened to me today. sometimes i don’t close my eyes completely when i sleep leaving a tiny gap to see the whole outside world. when you sleep, you sense of feeling also becomes numb. while i was sleeping, i felt my hand sliding off my face very slowly. i was wondering why but i couldn’t stop my hand from moving. while half awake, i wanted to see what else my body can’t normally do. what i found out is that my eyes see stuff moving at a slower rate than normal time. each frame freezes for a bit before moving to the next. it was really cool! however, during this experiment i had another weird sensation. i think i moved my head too close to the edge of the pillow and my head started to roll off. however i had no feeling of rolling off. all i felt was something rubbing my face and that the world my eye is seeing is rising above me… in slow motion. i went back to sleep after that freaky experience. hehe

new episode of Hikaru no Go came out today! w00h00! also would like to remind those who follow ninjai, that episode 8 and 9 have been released. ^_^x

sorry about not updating yesterday. was sitting in my chair and fell asleep. woke up and dragged myself to bed. think it was one of the earliest days i went to bed and it’s probably also one of the rare tuesdays i’m not going to take a nap after cs70.

the following link has been donated by crabyaple: link – hilarious but really mean.

thanks to harrybons for donating this link. it’s hella funny. (just before you criticized that i’ve become a NorCal person, i used hella because freaken or the next step sounded a bit extreme/offensive).

had an awesome harvest these 2 days. got my Dragon Drive, got my Hikaru no Go, and even got my Prince of Tennis! <– my 3 current favorites! ^_^x the following are some cute pix i extracted. the last one might take a bit longer to load since it’s 500kB.
