Yeah it arrived today, seems it was stopped at customs anyway, thus delaying it.Originally Posted by Psyke
Not much more waiting to go:
Anyway ITEM GET #2:
KUKUKU.
This really feels like a collectors edition, everything is feels sturdy and high quality, again my utmost thanks to you Psyke =D!
Nice darkshadow, seems you like to collect limited edition and bundle packs, especially since you got the Killzone 2 with the hat.
What made me smile today was when my little baby niece was talking, of course it was 3 month baby talk which consisted of "Gahs" "Aahs" and finally she can say "hi"
No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."

I ordered some loose leaf tea three days ago, it arrived yesterday because the import company is about a two hour drive from me, and I brewed them at work today.
I got a special gunpowder green tea (had it before, needed more), an oolong, and a darjeeling sampler. I tried one of the darjeeling in the afternoon, and it was very good.
A small thing really, but it made the day a lot better.
Gunpowder tea balls smell like shit and look like shit pellets, but tastes pretty good when brewed. Go figure.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

I went for our national medical school admission test today. A 2.5hr component followed by an hour of lunch, then another 3hrs of testing....
I wouldn't call it "satisfactory", but I guess I won't know till results come out. I might have done fairly well after all. But since I can't use these scores to apply as it's a graduate entry thing anyway, today was more of a practice run, so I kind of winged it without preparation.
One of my weakness was my vocabulary, which kind of shows in the humanitarian section - but there's not terribly much I can do about that unless I read (and use, or I'll just forget) some really obscure and often long words.
The more important thing I should work on would be essay writing. Not having done stimulus-plan-write-STOP essays for a good few years, I suck at it now. It won't be too hard to brush up on this though, and next year when it counts, it'll just be like essay preparation in my highschool days.
Science was the part I loved. Of the topics and types of questions tested, I either did it in first year Pharmacy, second year Pharmacy, highschool chem/physics, or 3rd year pharm... In fact, the first question on the paper was something we just did....2 days ago?
Study wouldn't be necessary for that part, unlike those who are doing law, working, or something non-biochem based. The only things I can think of that I should read up again would be some rules/concepts on lenses/light/real-or-virtual images, and alpha-beta-gamma radioactive decay.
Anyway, now that that's finished, I topped off the day with some CSS fragging and Hellsing Ultimate 5 (now that Anon's the only choice). THAT made me smile

I got on the bus today, and instead of setting my laptop on hibernate like I usually do, I decided to put it on standby instead. Since I've never really tested how much power standby mode drains compared to hibernation (zero minus the small amounts needed to maintain the clock etc), I initially wanted to check the power level after my 1hr bus trip.
I got off the bus and went to work afterwards and went to work, came home and what not.
9 hours later, I finally remembered to turn it on again to find a 10% decrease in battery charge.
It greatly exceeded my expectations, so it made me smile.

Talking to career advisers through my university is helping me relieve some of the worry of graduating and finding a job. Right now I'm seriously considering teaching English abroad. I'd love to go to graduate school, but as it's too late to apply for any for this next school year, my next year will be spent working. I can only hope I find something that interests me.
Also there's a guy sitting next to me who sounds exactly like Noam Chomsky. It's making me sleepy.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

I did some more searching to find a store that sells that heatsink for $56. It incurs a $20 delivery charge though, bumping the gross cost to $76.
I then checked another site I was getting some Nexus 120mm fans from, and they had a $10-off special going that I wasn't aware of.
So now buying 3 of these fans like I intended covers the delivery charge and then some.

My daughter celebrated her 4th month last week, and I made this video for her yesterday.
And yeah remember to watch in HD. Anyone knows how to directly link to the HD version of a video in youtube?

I think if you add this tag at the end of the YouTube link, it'll set it to High Quality: &fmt=18
So basically, for those that want to watch the video in High Quality (I recommend that you should), use this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_hYP2ZCQ0k&fmt=18.
Other than that, kudos to Psyke for the awesome video. Very cute, indeed.

Nice video, but man, I forgot how top-heavy babies are. That child is about 2/3 head.
I love the last second of the video where she slaps her head on the mattress after flipping over.

The last few seconds just made my day.

Aww cute vid, congrats!
Washing my dogs made me grin. =D And smile.
Man, I love dogs. Also...my dad received expensive chocolate and shared it with me.
Chocolate. Guaranteed smiles.
Reading the summary of how godawful Queen's Blade is going to be.
(and by that I mean horribly awesome)
The kind of series that makes Ikkitousen look like a History Channel documentary on nuns, Berserk look like a high intellectual thesis on the politics of the Medieval Era, and Bleach an instructional video about sword combat.

I couldn't stop laughing and going "what the hell?" at the screenshots. Seriously, can they think of something else that can't be purely perverted and strange, like Sekirei?

Ya know what, THAT made me smile too.
Now... we can click as warriors... button to button, it is the basis of all internet.

That's probably what I'll be doing. If not, then at least the first episode to see what this Boob Cannon is all about
