even the timetable is set in a way that the last 4 days is solely for the computer to render. lol. imagine, the computer on for 4 straight days without offing. man.

interior elements and construction is ok. construction stuff. but boring. but ok. lol. wat am i talking. contradictive.

UPDATE FINALLY

well, indirectly thanks to jason gan and ambrose lee, i am updating.

why? cause we are supposingly supposed to have breakfast at 7.15 . but being jason, i shdn have trust his judgement of time!

this time he din fell asleep BUT he jog too long! omg. this is the third straight outing tat i have organised that has failed! wat sia?

oh did i mention it took jason 88 missed calls from 1pm to 3pm to wake him up for vivocity outing???? and i waited for 3 and a half hours before i saw a person! (joan not counted lol)

alright, i was bz these few days, drawing drawing and going out.

quite regretting my past coursework, which pulled down my grades for freehand, and considering the lecturer marks so weird. if u score a C+ or C for ur coursework, then ur final assignment will be marked down. i thought i deserved a high B+ , but in the end he gave me 74 marks which is short of 1 for B+ . thankfully for sketchbook i scored quite high, but wasnt sastified course i was marked down again. i scored a 82. which is a low A.

So i am gonna improve on my big drawing and hope he give me some more marks to push me up to a B+ overall.

oh ya. i shall provide a summary for vivocity which is designed by world famous architect Toyo Ito.

Vivocity in overall, is extremely daring compared to the other shopping malls in singapore. once inside, the navigation was surprisingly easy, thanks to the ceiling element that Ito used. the ceiling element also became a part of his outdoor roof. Continuity of the flow from the interior to the exterior. great man.

In one phrase to sum it all, Vivocity is simply, simplified sophistry.


yeah. HAIL TOYO ITO MAN!

VIDC OCTOBER RANKINGS

Ranking and Analysis

In case people accuse me of cheating, i shall not post my own rank here!!! haha. but you all should know where i am right. AHAHA

1 ) -=fLamYsT=-

Jason Gan

Analysis :
Due to a certain someone not being on the list, this guy now tops the list, of course you all know who the certain someone is la. HAHA. ok, jason has improved since the last ranking, so its only natural that he rise up to this hot seat. However, his challengers include newcomer Daphne and also Ambrose. Jason's weakness remains the same, he loves to kill a lot, therefore sometimes he gets his priorities wrong, but he has improved on that. Also, he works on impulse. Sometimes, his temper gets the better of him.


2) MaJoRiNsTiNcT

Ambrose

Analysis:
Its a tough call to choose between either daphne or brose for this position, however, brose's consistency moves him ahead. He has finally ditched the old VS image, and moved to experimenting with other heroes, however, recent losses could pull him down to lower positions during the next rank update. A point to note that his morphling has only lost 1 match so far.


3) d

Dapne

Analysis:
This is one of the newest member of VIDC and is also a great player. At the start, no one knew how to deal with her, but as time goes by she became more predictable. However there is no denying of the fact that she brings new challenges to VIDC and her recent play as the witch doctor shows that fact.


4) pigsflew

ying sheng

Analysis:
He has since made a return to the daily dota scene after a long absence. Although rusty at the start, he showed us the form that justified his high position here. Proof is that his Viper has only lost a few times and things look promising here.

5) bnn

yee long

Analysis:
He has been consistent, and perhaps consistency is the thing that costed him here. Once he learns how to turn a game around, we should see him rise up this ranking board. Also, he needs to improve on his reaction skill, otherwise, he is quite good with a few heroes.

6) kNeE

kenny

Analysis:
Knee has gone to serve the army, which is kind of sad, as he would not get many chances to improve on his ranking here. He has improved since the last rank update, and is trying out new heroes such as PA.

7) Orion

Lionel

Analysis:
Due to inactiveness, Lionel drops down a position. He needs to work on his confidence. There are matches that could be won and he sometimes gives up very easily.

8) jf

Jian Fu

Analysis:
He RISES , thanks to his consistency again. He is also improving, and even had to turn down a dota match up once because he had a "dota appointment". Secret training eh?

9) Daniel

Daniel

Analysis:
Rarely on the scene, but he showed that he can play well, we are looking for more involvement from him.

10) TVXQ

Stephen

Analysis:
He could have been #9, however a recent mistake pulled him down. A major mistake, such as slow reaction speed of 3 seconds to escape a furion trap by eating a tree. And worse still, he ate the tree that instead blocked him in. =_=. But, he is a above average player nonetheless.

Analysis is provided for only the TOP TEN. so work hard guys, if you want to be in this list.

11) Max (inactiveness)
12) Alvin Ee (new member)
13) Qi Jun (inactivness)
14) John (inactiveness)
15) Denise (newest member)

Out of list:
Pohboon, Khoo Yu

Fields of Hope

Along with hoshi no tobira, this is the best song i heard from gundam. yes perhaps go down one of the nicest japanese songs that i heard. I can really replay this song over and over again, because it is that soothing, and that memorable.


Performed by Tanaka Rie

konna ni tsumetai tobari no fukaku de
anata wa hitori de nemutteru
inori no utagoe sabishii nohara wo
chiisa na hikari ga terashiteta

Beneath a veil so cold,
You deeply sleep, all alone
The melody of prayer; on the lonely fields,
a little light shined

anata no yume wo miteta
kodomo no you ni waratteta
natsukashiku mada tooku
sore wa mirai no yakusoku

I watched as you dreamed
You laughed like a child
So dear, and yet so far -
That is the promise of our future

itsuka midori no asa ni
itsuka tadoritsukeru to
fuyugareta kono sora wo
shinjiteiru kara
Fields of hope

That one day, on a green morning,
One day, we will make it there
Because in this wintered sky
We still believe
Fields of Hope

umarete kita hi ni dakishimete kureta
yasashii ano te wo sagashiteru
inori no utagoe hitotsu kiete mata hajimaru
tayorinaku setsunaku tsuzuku

On the day we were born, we were embraced
And now we search for those gentle hands again
The melody of prayer; one vanishes,
And all begins again; a powerless, painful continuation

itsuka midori no asa e
subete no yoru wo koete
sore wa tada hitori zutsu
mitsukete yuku basho dakara

One day, to that green morning,
We'll cross through all these nights
Because that is the place each one of us searches for

ima wa tada kono mune de
anata wo atatametai
natsukashiku mada tooi
yasuragi no tame ni
Fields of hope

Now, within my own heart,
I want to keep you warm
So dear, and yet so far -
In the name of peace
Fields of Hope

natsukashiku mada tooi
yakusoku no nohara
Fields of hope
Fields of hope

So dear, and yet so far -
The fields of promise
Fields of Hope
Fields of Hope
