A look in the future of Cohort 5.

3 MONTHS FROM TODAY....,
(probably when high on something).
Most probably this would happen.

Whosever room this is should be ashamed!
His underwear is hanging on the lamp.
His raincoat is there in the overstuffed chair,
And the chair is becoming quite mucky and damp.
His workbook is wedged in the window,
His sweater's been thrown on the floor.
His scarf and one ski are beneath the TV,
And his pants have been carelessly hung on the door.
His books are all jammed in the closet,
His vest has been left in the hall.
A lizard named Ed is asleep in his bed,
And his smelly old sock has been stuck to the wall.
Whosever room this is should be ashamed!
Donald or Robert or Willie or--
Huh? You say it's mine? Oh, dear,
I knew it looked familiar!

by Shel Silverstein

Well guess its nearly time for all of us to part ways to wherever you people (COHORT 5) are going.
When this moment actually happens to you, hope it actually brings a smile to your face in remembrance of this poem!
ADIEUS!!! ;-p

One liners for Chinese New Year

Ever heard of the cliche phrase "SHOP TILL YOU DROP" which is overly used in supermarkets???

Well, i just realised that they dont actually mean women shopping till they finally collapse under the ton of unwanted stuff they bought because "its on sale for 50 PERCENT!!!" but rather their Husbands/boyfriends/guyfriends/
who had been dragged into this mess.

Godspeed men.

Happy Chinese/Elvish New Year

Please check into Hotel 626...., tonight.



Hotel 626 is a game which you could play off the web which is sponsored by the Dorito's.I got the link from a nice friend who wants to scare me ;-p. Yeah most of the games you play off the web really sucks but hotel 626 is different. Its one of those games which tries (and succeeds) at scaring the player.(im surprised by the quality of the in game visuals which could be described as a weird mix of graphics and cinematics and the superb background music)

THE REVIEW

Well the game basically start after you check into the hotel,(ill recommend that you allow the game to take control of your webcam, because there's a surprise if you do.)

You find yourself awake in your room, in the middle of the night. you feel your hearbeat begin to rise as the surrounding rooms seem to emit a strange presence ..., you a hear strange noises from the corridor so you quicken your pace. as you run, the darkness begin to envelop you.


It is at that moment, your instincts begin to scream for you to run, YOU NEED TO GET OUT!!!
you throw on your shirt...., and the game begins.

Interested? feel free to visit the hotel. You are recommended to play in the dark with a set of head phones. and THOSE ARE ACTUAL SCREEN SHOTS FROM THE GAME!!!


a preview of whats to expect....

O yeah, one more thing, the hotel only opens from 6pm to 6 am.
Enjoy your stay. The Hotel always welcome new guests.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

yeah, i know the titles cliche and that saying its cliche IS cliche, but its the NEW YEAR, so i guess we just pressed the restart button on the year which makes it NOT cliche to say it!

Well it was a rather interesting way of celebrating the New Years in the my hometown (a combination of retardness which nearly got me killed by a bunch of speeding bikers),The year before that i nearly got impaled on a hockey stadium's gate!!! (dont ask)

But one thing i did realise is that people dont really celebrate the NEW YEAR when the NEW YEAR actually BEGINS! Think about it, a few seconds before the New Year, everyone would be excited that its going to be the NEW YEAR. They take time to hang out and count down till the final seconds of the last year and usher in, OFFICIALLY, the NEW YEAR.

And then , they just PARTY or go home!
lols. yeap, thats a total summary of a New Year. Guess thats how it is!
In any case,
HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE!!!!

INDIE MUSIC RULES


Whoa, garage punk music really rocks!!! Seriously its really sad that people still claim they love music when all they ever tried was mainstream music. Seriously, lots of the mainstream music are the same song over and over again with different lyrics.
Ever heard of Amerie, Rihanna, EStelle, and the likes???

CHALLENGE=If you dont believe me, try counting how many songs on the radio at the moment who sings about girls(or boys) and break-ups(or hook-ups). GAH!!!

Im not saying DONT LISTEN to MAINSTREAM stuff but guess there's more to music then the stuff people think are 'IN'. Music should be enjoyed by the listener, not cause you think the singer looks hot or its 'cool' to listen to the current chart toppers.

TRY INDIE MUSIC!(like so)
The musicians are ordinary people who just want to spread their love for music and not (all the time at least) commercialize it.

Well this clip isnt the best indie music there is.
Ill recommend "untitled' by Interpol.
Check it out at this address= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm2oBSCtImg

I just love how crazily creative the music clip below is! Song ain't that bad too! Enjoy!!!

Wii Fit tells 10-year-old she's fat

The Daily Mail is condemning video games again--and this time it's Nintendo that bears the brunt of its vocal indignation. Although the Wii and DS have been generally insulated from the usual haranguing of traditional video games in such sections of the British press because of their popularity among the elderly, women, and on cruises, family friendly Wii Fit has managed to incur the wrath of the tabloid.

The reason is that an unnamed 10-year-old girl from South East England was told by the game, during its Body Mass Index test, that she was "fat." (Wii Fit actually puts users into a variety of categories, the two heaviest of which are "overweight" and "obese.")

The stepfather of the girl, who didn't want to be named for her sake, said, "She is a perfectly healthy, 4-feet-9-inch-tall 10-year-old who swims, dances, and weighs only six stone. She is solidly built but not fat. She was devastated to be called fat and we had to work hard to convince her she isn't."

The paper then enlisted the opinion of Tam Fry, a spokesperson for the National Obesity Forum, who called for a ban on kids playing the game, presumably meaning she wanted to see it brandishing an 18 age gate sticker. She said, "I am absolutely aghast that children are being told they are fat. A child's BMI can change every month and it is perfectly possible for a child to be stocky, yet still very fit. I would be very concerned if children were using this game and I believe it should carry a warning for parents."

However, Nintendo declined to entertain her suggestion, simply saying, "Wii Fit is still capable of measuring the BMI for people aged between two and 20 but the resulting figures may not be entirely accurate for younger age groups due to varying levels of development."

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

ANYTHING SEEMS TO BE A GOOD ENOUGH REASON TO BAN A GAME NOWDAYS...., guess parents are getting a little way too overprotective and is quicker to JUDGE A GAME before thinking with some LOGIC .

seriously..., chill people.
Your the parent.
YOU can BAN the game for your children if you think its unsuitable for them.

(eventhough Wii Fit is basically an innocent fitness game.....)
