So the world's first ever F1 night race came and gone.
And boy was it entertaining.
Might have stared a new interest in F1 for me.
Like the commentators said, it was
"thoroughly eventful".

Note: I really like Lewis Hamilton's car.
The gray makes it look metallic.

I feel very lucky that i did not challenge or bet with
any1 on who would have been the lucky winner of the race.
Because i couldnt have been more wrong.

Ive never been more wrong since i tot
the Vietnam War ended in 1990.

Because i tot for sure, Felipe Massa would have won,
and Fernando Alonso had no chance of winning.
I mean look at the odds.

Alonso had his car breakdown twice in qualification.
He had to start in 15th position.
He hasnt won all year.

Massa on the other hand, cruised through qualification.
And started in 1st position.
He is second in the drivers' championships.

A twist of fate came in the form of an early crash,
and an incident at the pit stop.

im sure most ppl watched
so no explanation needed here.
(basically he just took off from his pit stop
with the fuel hose still attached to the car)

Nice race.
Very entertaining. That's all i can say.
You know what else is entertaining?

The Amazing Race.

It used to be my favourite-no-miss kind of show
up til season 3 cuz by then i lost the drive
to continue watching.

But now, season 13, i'm making it a point
not to miss any episodes.

My friends and i were so crazy about it last time,
we played our own versions of it.
Be it in the primary school, HDB block
or even Mount Faber.

Just ask Yi Fan.

Theres just something about The Amazing Race
that makes it so great to watch.
After all, its been winning Emmys for like
90 years in a row now.
(exaggerated)

The winner is probably one Wiki search away.
(I think it is rite?)
(Actually it is not)
(I mistook this season for season 9)
But please, i wanna enjoy watching this on TV.
So whoever comes up to me and tells me who wins,
you're the worst kind of human there is.

Saturday Night Live

Live From New York;
Its

SATURDAY NIGHT!!!!!..




Sarah Palin here is played by Tina Fey,
who won best actress for a comedy series
in the recent Emmy Awards.
The series is her very own 30 Rock.

And the winner for best actor in a comedy series
was Alec Baldwin, also from 30 Rock.

Not surprisingly, 30 Rock won best comedy series.
So imma watch it sooner or later.

This year's Emmy's had its interesting moments,
though at some times u feel as if it wasnt Emmy material.
They did start with a surprise though.
This time round they stripped down Heidi Klum
from a business suit to a.. well..
more revealing suit.
Still, i dont think this was well receieved by the audience.
Well, some say the 5 hosts for this year's show
were the worst ever.

I prefer last year when Ryan Seacrest hosted it alone.
And when Stewie and Brian appeared.



But i also kinda liked Josh Groban's performance this year.
Especially the Southpark part.



many more entertaining stuff.
so if you want, youtube away...

my first GPA

I woke up to a pleasant surprise today.
A couple of B+, 1 B, 1 C, and an AD
gave me a GPA score of 3.16
Absolutely delighted since i convinced myself
that i was gonna get 2.5 or below the night before.

This is in accordance to my way of life, called,
"Aim Low"

You aim low, so when you perform above expectations,
you're extremely delighted.
Yet when you don't, you dun feel all too sad.
Why? Cuz u aimed low.

yea. This mentality got me through my whole sec school life.
Kids, there's a life skill for you.

Just kidding.

Well anyway, i dont usually do this,
and neither do i get to do this very often,
but,



F#$% YEAH!!

DISTINCTION BABY.

YOU FEEL ME?

YOU FEEL ME?!?!?



okay.
sorry about that.
yea dat AD means i got a distinction for one of my modules.
which is called ECPRO.
Engineering: A Creative Profession.
Remember when i posted about building that
mini robotic car and stuff like dat?

(If you dont, click here.)

yea, this module.
It owns.

Though i do feel i cud have pushed for an A
for Computer Programming.
But seriously, 3.16 is more than i cud wish for.

Did anybody see the moon anytime last night
or even tonight?
I probably nvr seen a bigger rounder moon
thn what i saw at 8pm just now.
at 9pm it got higher in the sky
and further from Earth
(assumption)
so it looked smaller already.


But seriously, it was so mystical,
it almost had a haunting presence.
Its like one huge eye looking down at you.


No, not you Sauron.
Go away.

Does this happen every mid Autumn festival?
Cuz this is the first time i've noticed it.
Oops, look at the time.
Gotta catch heroes.

Marcus called in from Shibuya just now.
Life sounds so great in Japan.
Definitely going there at some point of my life.

So as to explain the lack of entries in recent days,
again, its a combination of laziness and nothingness to post.

Sleeping time is now 3am - 4am.
And i wake up to eat at 5am (for fasting purposes).
I watch Oprah which is an awesome show btw,
til 6am.
Thn after some time stoning,
i go back to sleep and wake up at around 3 - 4pm.

Its actually a good strategy cuz i can shave off
like 8 hours of fasting.
I just have to wake up at 3pm or so,
and tahan the hunger for a while, till its 7pm.

But ur discouraged to act all lazy when ur fasting actually.

Its also been more anime for me.
It felt like i waited a damn long time for ep 22
of Macross Frontier to be released.
But well, it didnt disappoint.

Seriously, thank you Macross Frontier
for redefining anime music and soundtrack.
Your music is just f#$% awesome.

Here's Sheryl Nome's Northern Cross for you



Korean music's actually nice too.
Been listening to their hip-hop and r&b.



Epik High mashes electronica with rap very well.
The girl's not part of their group btw.
That's Younha, whos probably my fav female singer
at the moment.


btw, this song is her singing in Japanese, not Korean.

or maybe you'd prefer Big Bang.



yea, they've got more of the pretty-boy appeal.
They're still hip hop oriented though.

I realise I listen to so much songs from the west,
I dun really pay attention to local or at least
regional music.
Tmr i'm trying to find Chinese rock bands.
A rarity indeed.
Seriously all i hear from Chinese artists are slow love songs.
Or at least those are the ones that get popular.
Or maybe im just ignorant.
Prove me wrong CHINESE PEOPLE!!!!!
