 A great man once said: "Playing UFO Catcher is like opening a savings account." Yesterday, I personally witnessed the true meaning behind the qoute. After a little Viwawa mahjong session with my "Friend" (whom do not wished to have his name published) at Suntec Star bucks, we decided to take a little tour to the nearby arcade center, carrying hopes of groping little girls. As we approaching, we noticed a little crowd at the UFO Catcher section. A group of middle-aged ladies were having fun inserting tokens, beaming with hope of grabbing the poor Elmo which has it's arse facing upward. Initially, it seems pretty exciting because the poor Elmo is so near of being caught by the saliva dripping ladies. But each failure disgust me by an inch. Why? You would ask. After each failure, you will immediately hear 3 x *cling* sound of tokens inserting (For idiots and nerds - each *cling* you heard means 50 cents gone into the machine), the action caused me great disturbance. I don't understand why the fuck people would rather spent over 50 to 60 bucks worth of tokens to grab a poor Elmo that cost about 30? I believe anyone with NORMAL eyes will notice the strength of the grabbing arms are definately too weak to hold poor Elmo up and travel all the way to the exit of "OMG DEAR YOU ARE SO COOL, YOU CAUGHT AN ELMO! MUACKS!" But why do they keep trying? Is it REALLY a fun way of spending money? If these bunch of people spend about 100 bucks a week on UFO Catchers, in less then 2 years will net them AT LEAST a LV bag. I can't comprehend the excitment within, in my eyes, they are just a bunch of retards happily getting their hard earned money milked off by a dumbarse machine which won't even say "Thank you very much for being scammed so happily". My heart ached each time I heard the *cling* sound. I felt the pain of losing money for them. My heart cried and begged for them to stop. This sentence is definately a joke though, I am actually quite happy for them to be able to play such an important role in reviving Singapore's economy, in the nutshell. My friend too, decided to have a try on his luck. He exchanged 4 dollars worth (I think, I don't bare to see) of tokens and talk towards the so-called "EASIEST" noob catcher. It was a small machine, much smaller compared to the rest. The grabbing arms are as tiny as the plushies but it does look kinda strong. Try no.1 started briefly. After a short examination on the grabbing arm's position, he hit onto the grab button. The arm drop exactly onto the position of the....I don't know what that monster's name but whatever. The arms closed up and lift the monster up, it was successful. However, it was nothing worth celebrating, the moment the arms hit the top bar, it immediately let go of that monster. We looked at each other, feeling retarded. Now, is the point where the great man's word got proven on my friend himself. After strolling a few rounds at the UFO Catcher section, he once again stopped in front of the tiny machine. He paused a moment, beaming with a little smile on his face, he grabbed another token out of his pocket. Yes, you guessed it. Since he already opened a saving account, the next step is to put more money into it isn't it? I believe I do not need to explain further. We left empty handed. After this little event, I came out with a conclusion: He got SERVED!   2009年8月16日日曜日  Do you know the reason why I always choose to sit in the 1st row? My answer is typical, since there isn't much other reasons...is there? -to focus on what the lecturer is teaching; to be attentive and capture as much information as possible- But why the 1st row, why can't I be as focus as if I were to sit at the back of the class? Girls. Pretty classmates. If I were to sit right at the back of the class, chances were I get the full view of all the girls in the class, and of course, that's because my class do have a few really 'moe' girls. In order not to spend my time looking at pretty females, I delicated myself in the front row, so all I can see is my lecturer and the white board. However, something unusual happened today. 'Moe-chan_1' decided to take the front seat too. By the norm, she always take on the seat at the very last row, but today for some reasons, she decide to take on the front seat too. =O Good news? Bad news? You judge. For the 1st time, I noticed her expression when she is studying. She is just toooooo cute. I always think that she's the cutest girl in class but I never thought that she can be so cute when she's studying! *blush* Anyway, hope she's getting better by now since I heard she isn't feeling well these few days.... So! I guess you people now can understand why the picture of the post, which seems to be pointless in the beginning, start to make sense now right? *wink* *cough* now back to serious business. Just completed another module known as Management of Organisation (MO), in another words, omg it's another Organisation Behaviour(OB). The only difference is my Lecturer for MO, Mr Colm Foster sounds more like an Inspirational Speaker rather than an Educator. He is generally a cool guy, and his lesson isn't REALLY that boring, just slightly dry but I'm cool with it. Now that the module ended, it's time to prepare for a new 'Group' Assignment and I'm gonna start preparing for my exams too! (Oct 24 iirc). Kiasu!, nope, I'm just bored, period. 2009年8月12日水曜日  Ok, 1st of all I would like to say hello to the people who hasn't been able to contact me for the past 2 weeks! Yup I'm back into real life world again after enjoying a full 2 weeks of tranquility. I spent my fruitful 2 weeks farming Diablo 2 LOD gears and I have finally beaten the game utterly, I really mean utterly, clearing all special Uber Tristram runs, max geared and botting like no tomorrow now. Cough cough, now back to real life. I finally step out of my house yesterday! Met up with Delphine, or more commonly known to me as Evo's girlfriend. Clearing up the assignment for new school term, and doing some researches in preparation for the new modules. I had rarely talk to her since we are not very close friends initially, but she is very friendly and I got don't really feel bored talking to her. A good friend indeed. Later in the afternoon I will be meeting her up for more study researches again, follow by having Aaron to join in for kopi and probably Danny too! Now I hope Kula will come too. Let's hope he is actually reading this. =D Now listening to Kimi ni shiranai monogatari, the latest single by Supercell/Ryo, my current favourite ending song for the anime Bakemonogatari (Ghost Story). *Senjougahara kyuuunnn~~* Ok probably I should share the song too, will upload it into my jukebox in a moment, stay tuned. 新の人生始め！楽しみ！ |
