THIRTY has been reached

YESH! this is my last blog. so i'm thinking that i should actually make an effort and i went to the guardian.com and then i'm looking and thinking of what boring things shall i write about right then i saw this title" Indie band releases album directly the the public" and then i read it and it's bout how the raconteurs (whom i love) are going to release their album in every available format without going through any advertising or interviewing or promotion for their album at all and it's suppose to be breakthrough in the merchandising of music in the music industry and stuff. so u can click here if you wanna check it out. yeap.

and like steady as she goes is probably one of the funniest videos i've ever watched and the song is really good also. very catchy.

More Music

i just realised that whenever i start to do many blogs at once, i talk more about things that affect me personally instead of going online and finding boring technology news. cuz that takes too much time.

so now, MORE MUSIC. always good news in my head. usually on itunes, my playlist is on alphabetical order right but then i always never follow that and just listen to the songs that i really am into at that moment. but recently, i put it on shuffle and it played the Beatles "a day in the life" and then it relived my love in oldies rock and stuff. and then on American idol, this week's theme was the Beatles and that was just too big of a coincidence to ignore. so I'm just so into ACDC, the Beatles and Led Zeppelin and stuiff and i realised that like eventhough the music is still wonderful, the quality of the sound is so different to the quality of the sound of the songs that are produced in the 21st century and its actually really clear how the recording equipment has advanced and how it affects the final product and the quality of the song.

so that's great for technology i guess. and even better for my ears. yesh.

how fast can you go?

i spend a lot of time on the computer right and like i type a lot and stuff like that and recently, about a million ppl told me that i type really fast. okay3 people. but that's still a lot right. and then i remembered on the office how Jim and Pam talked about typing and stuff like that. so i went online and took a typing speed test and my gross speed was 100 words per minute. and that's about 45 times faster than lightning, if you count properly. haha. no seriously. i used the calculator and it informed me that i take 1.6 seconds to type one word. which is probably faster than some people i guess. so, i think i'm pretty fast. oh right, i can type without looking at the keyboard. that prob earns me about 65 thousand points so my speed just increased to 5980 words per minute.

see if you are faster than me here.

Around the World

I came from an international school so like i have lots of friends who are like overseas right cuz most of the people who go to international schools are either people whose parents who get transfered a lot like by their company so they move around a lot right and also people who are mixed blood. so i have friends from like different parts of the world right and like it's really hard to like keep in contact with those people if not for the internet right. cuz like imagine there wasno myspace ofr facebook or stuff like that, the only way i could keep in contact if i were to text or call them and that would cost too much money and also, it seems like you're making such an effort just to call them and stuff like that but if you're on facebook with them it's like really casual and stuff and you can check out their pics and stuff, so. the internet helps. a lot. yappers.

Sports mania

i am such a sports fan. like i really am into football and formula one especially. and like, it's my dream really to go to Anfield and watch a home game right. (Liverpool's my team) and like i just realised that it would actually be hard to organise a trip to anfield and get tickets and stuff like that but like because of technology and that beautiful box, i call the TV i actually don't have to. like i can still watch it at home right. and like imagine if there was no like satellites and stuff like how am i suppose to live my life without watching liverpool play or watching kimi race and stuff. like, what kind of life would that be.

And like out of all the channels on TV, the sports channels are the only channels that are up to date cuz like on astro,, i feel like it is such a tea bag like they keep repeating all the shows and stuff and we are always like a season or two or 500 behind so that is not good at all right. but like the sports channel are the only channels that are showing current things. and that is very good. yes.

iPod speakers

I'm really thinking of getting iPod speakers for my iPod because I'm starting to be more environmental and i wanna save like electricity. cuz like now i use my computer to listen to my music when i am in my room but I'm thinking that if i get speakers then i wouldn't have to on my computer and then i could save lots of energy so that would be great. and i can actually like bring like my music downstairs. like if i wanna do something downstairs and actually on the music for everyone to hear, like not only through the ear phones, like a speaker would be very useful. so i went to mac to check out the ipod speakers and the cheapest was about RM 500-600 and that's too much. really. but i really wanna get it. so. I'm like online a lot now, looking for ipod speakers. and i think there should be like more which are not like apple. like speakers that would work but are not apple speakers so they wouldn't be too expensive. yes. i would like that v.much.

So over it.

the fashion newsletter is done! we had much problems with the writing and the pictures and the printing even and i was so stressed and all and i am so glad that we're done and i'm actually really satisfied with the end result. our front page is b-e-autiful and i reallythink that we made a good fashion newsletter. i jsut hope that maybe this might prepare me for the future where i might be the fashion editor of a real fashion magazine. such a dream. but i am so so glad that i did the project and learned all that i did. i think that the stuff that i wrote also, i feel like it's good. exp the battle of the brands. and the title is just so asstounding like. i really wanted a really nice title and then i was listneing to my music right then i thought bout the battle of the bands then i thought, erm, why don't i just add a "r" and make it the battle of the brands. and i did. and that was one of the smartest things i've done in my life. yes. fer seriously.

6 more blogs to go. yes. i will do it now. with a smile.

Newsletter update

in class now. i think almost everyone right now is writing another of the opinion piece to get us ready for the OSSLT test bt i got a perfect score on the previous one, so I'm exempted from doing another one today. i' prob should do another to get ready for the real test bt i just couldn't be effing bothered. so i shall not.

i'm grammar checking catherine and ivone's articles and i'm adding more stuff to it. and hopefully we can do everything by wednesday cuz we need to finish it by thursday. i have a lot to do still. we hvn't started on the layout at all even so, we might have too much on our hands. yes.

i'm going to start now. so. toodles.

OSSLT

for the past 2 days of comtech, we have been doing OSSLT papers to get us ready for the mock test tomorrow and also the real test which is coming soon. and i got a 40 and 50 for the paper that we did yesterday and that's okay. cuz the highest possible mark is 40 and 60. so, i'm thinking hat's not too bad. but i felt i totally screwed it up cuz for an opinion piece, we were only supposed to give one side of the argument but i guess, i'm just too practiced in history (haha) that i gave both sides of the argument. so i thought that was no good. but then my mark was quite good. so no worries. yes.

Update on newsletter

o, i hv to do this fashion newsletter right and i'm just so excited cuz i get to think that i am almost like anna wintour. but i don't read vogue too much. so i get to be almost natasha kraal. and she's awesome. like all the captions and just all the catchphrases in harper's bazaar is just so good. and i love it and stuff.

so i wrote a review on Topshop and i used beautiful words and i thought it was quite good. then i read harper's bazaar and then it wasn't that good anymore. but i feel i might be on my way to be just as good as natasha kraal, maybe. so this is what i wrote about topshop. it's not done though. just a draft. it sounds kinda plain, i feel.

One of UK’s most respected brands; Topshop offers a variety of kinky, fun, casual and always stylish array of clothes, shoes, bags, accessories, socks and panties. Topshop has a mini clothing line with the controversial but ultra-fab supermodel; Kate Moss. The result of this collaboration is an edgy, yet chic but slightly over-priced clothing line. Also, being proudly from the UK, all Topshop outlets play lovely indie Brit rock, which guarantees customers a quirky and upbeat atmosphere when shopping at Topshop. Topshop has outlets in KLCC, Pavilion, MidValley, Sunway Pyramid, and One Utama.

and i started taking pictures. and i didnt dare to go in and take pictures of the clothes so i've got the outsides of topshop, miss selfridge, dorothy perkins and others. and for the clothes, i tried to take pictures of my own clothes. but they didnt turn out the way i wanted it to turn out at all cuz like when i hang the clothes up, you can see the hangers and then when you put the clothes down, then it looks really fat, the clothes that is. so i'm so sad about it. and i really wanna look for interesting backgrounds for my clothes but every background i see is just so boring. and it really frustrates me cuz i really wanna make a beautiful fashion newsletter with fitting pictures inside.
