Newbie

Now Playing : "Lady in Red" - Chris de Burgh

Wow, it looks like I haven't posted in a couple of days and I barely even realized it! I do have some announcements and rants (as usual :P), however so listen up!

First off, Phil is finally back from Poland and I'm happy to announce that he is now my guest contributor to this blog, which means that if you see any funky lookin' post, it's probably his doing!! Ahkakakaka!! Naw, I'm just kidding really! But seriously, I have no idea what he's going to post so it'll be just a big of a surprise for me as it is for you heh heh! Also, can someone please convince him to change his profile picture (on the basis that I've got better ones *wink*)??

Number two. I have to go for breakfast now so I'll be back later to complete this post. LMAO!

Update
4:40pm. I'm back at home and it has been an exhausting day and embarrassingly enough, I kept nodding off in two classes. I just hope no one important noticed :P I had a lot of things that I wanted to blog about today, but after going for breakfast earlier, I pretty much forgot them all *lol*. I've got quite a load of work to complete and I have a bloody 8am test tomorrow which I have yet to study for so I'm not going to ponder on until I remember what it was that I wanted to blog about.

BUT

I do remember one rant at least. I'd just like to take this opportunity to say that the traffic light system in Malaysia is CRAP!! Absolute total crap!! There is always something the matter with the traffic lights--the best part about this is that DID YOU KNOW that even just rain always (keyword : always) causes the traffic lights to shut down which in turn causes chaos and endless jams and my blood pressure running up and my cursing becoming more colorful.....okok, you get the picture. 

Everyday it's been raining--not hard, but it's not a drizzle either and everyday I have to put up with the new traffic lights (and you'd think it was the old ones that were futzing out on a ridiculously regular basis?) causing unneeded stress! Most days it's not working, some days the countdown counter counts either too little or too much causing heavy traffic, some other days the lights turn red too fast, allowing only about six cars out of 30+ cars through and some other other days the red light skips yellow and jumps to green (and vice versa) and causes pretty close calls (having been in one myself!)!! Also, sometimes green just never shows. >_<

Seriously, are you trying to kill us road users?!?
