it's amazing how such a simply game could get me so fired up. i'm such a sucker for cutsy games.
welcome to MapleStory, where super mario meets the new millenium. u start off in maple island, a small island for beginners to hone their skills. after u haf accumulated enough level (eg. 8-10) and depending on wat u wanna be, certain amt of str/dex/int/luk, you would hafta take a ship to the main island, victoria isle. once there, u will be off to the designated towns to change ur class.
this game was first introduced to me by my bear brother, the same guy who made me interested in ragnarok online. he told me his friends were playing and asked me to check the official site out and blam, i'm hooked. before i knew it, my own friends were also telling me abt how they juz started playing MS some time during last wk.
also, another obsession this wk is yu-gi-oh. it started out with an innocent search for new fanfics to read but even that took me the whole night. the search for more yu-gi-oh stuffs brought me to a new heights as i was sourcing out bit torrents & vcd stores for the epic 224 episode anime.
as most of u might know, yu-gi-oh manga ended at bk 38 (but a new series GX is in place) and the anime is split into series 1 & series 2. the series currently being americanized is the latter. way back when i started my ygo manga collection (abt 3 yrs ago maybe?), i had bought series 1 while in search of series 2 after a chance encounter of episode 3 on scv at my aunt's house. back then, being young and naive, i didn't know of the split and thus didn't bother much abt not finding the 2nd series. not that the stores had much to offer anyways... but now, things are different. i blew 30 bux on the first few parts of series 2. the ones i've got was oni til epi 102. i still haf like another 122 more...
which bring me to my 3rd pt of the day. mirc and me don't mix. in search of the missing 122 episodes, i was forced into logging into mirc for greener pastures. i had nvr been gd at using mirc and again, it took me the whole night to finally figure out how to work things but the queueing is terrible. i nvr knew such long queues was possible other than the hello kitty-mcD incident. and i made a real silly mistake. paraphrasing a random person in said ygo channel. doh. haha...
to me: "u r searching for pokemon in a yu gi oh channel. what are you, high or sth?"
in the end, i managed 2 episodes and, as of now, is still queueing for another 2. wish me luck in waiting for the endless line. ^_~

no... not DNA coding... not even MCT coding. this is my first editting of blog template. the original is done by my juicy juztyn pimp so all i did was find some codes for the tagboard & changed a lil of the color for the fonts & such. it had been almost 2 yrs since i last touched html codes so i was a lil disoriented. thankfully i still managed to get thing right instead of screwing up the format which my juicy pimp (painstakingly?? :p) fixed up.
~~juz some random drabble~~
I missed u
Right down to the very last detail
I missed the prickly feel of your day-old stubble against my cheeks
I missed the tangy taste of your lips against mine
I even missed the smell of tobacco clinging onto you like a second skin
And on a night like this
When our past surged and overflowed
Would you miss me like I missed you?
Would you remember the cold nights we’d spent entangled in each other’s arm?
Would you cherish these memories that can never be ever again?

i'll admit it before anyone else tells me. i sucked. hahhaha...
what i learnt today (other than the fact that i sucked):
1. starting
2. moving off
3. turning
4. stopping
the pickup pt is paya lebar mrt but mr lim drove me to kallang stadium there. there's a huge empty carpark where other private drivers like myslf got their lessons. he explained the clutch, gear & engine in relative detail at the start. he oso explained the 3 pedals of doom. and then he told me get in d driver's seat & start driving. i got short legs so the seat was like 30 cm away from the steering wheel. talk abt cramped.
so i drove ard abit. had quite alot of prob trying to get d pressure of pressing the pedals right... always too hard (jerky) or too soft (no movement). i blame my thick shoe sole. moving was ok... as was turning. after turning left all day, i didn't quite get d right turn right. always too lil or too much... gotta work harder on right turning the next time i get my hands on a car. haha... stopping was better than starting tho. gotta work harder on starting the car & the initial move off too.
hopefully i'll drive less jerkily next lesson... hopefully... heehee

i had nvr thought i would start my own blog any time during my living years but here i am. heck, i said the same thing abt friendster & look where it got me...
lesson of the day kids: nvr say nvr. u'll nvr know when ur words will come back & bite u right in the behind.
~~
on a side note, anyone with any gd skins that is dark/gothic/anime-ish, allows u to comment & contains a tagboard somewhere within? nobody?? well, i guess one can't ask for too much when one is juz a novice blogger with absolutely no experience whatsoever, can one?? :p
haf a great nite children
