just had driving lesson. Sth funny. I got the instructor that perpetually dozed off everytime again. I was along AMK ave 1, real long straight road, he didn't give any instructions, so I assume we are going straight. Until we almost reached serangoon, then I was like er.. then he suddenly woke up and realised we had overshot. He was wearing sunglasses, so I couldn't really tell he was sleeping or not. Clever way to slack. So I had to drive into the private estate and narrow roads, and make a turn back towards amk.. haha but I had fun driving long distances. Feeling much more confident now, just that instructor been complaining that i drag my gear for too long and don't change up fast enough.

Haha got weepoh to drive me from home to simlim to check wads wrong with my graphics card on sat. At a price of course, treated him to lunch. Hahaha. Thanks anyway. Supposedly I had already tried uninstalling my driver and reinstalling it(tried a couple of times both with my cd, and the website update) but it still keeps rebooting when my com tries to load windows. As a result I can only get into normal mode after uninstalling my graphics driver. But when they did the same thing over there in sim lim, my com miraculously worked.. Argh felt like an idiot at that point in time. So i thot everything was fine, but when i got home, and tried to play some video files, I got really bad images and resolution but the funny thing was I could still play my warcraft perfectly. So after some trial and error, i stumbed into this toubing shooting option for my graphics card where I could adjust the graphics card accleration, so I tried lowering it(such that I cannot play gamesthat require nice 3D images) and amazingly the video could play properly. Argh wth is wrong with my com man. can someone enlighten me?

Finished harry potter finally. Read real slowly initially and only picked up towards the end.. front part was kinda boring. Sighz shall not mention too much in case some of u all are slower in reading it than me. Haha had to wait for ppl to finish reading then i can borrow and read.

Didn't realised I had overbooked too many driving lessons like (30+) until I was shocked by my bank acc balance. I was like where did my money go??? hahaha. Hope I woun be needing so many lessons either. My friends are planning to go HK in nov, yes that super double combo holiday week(think its deepavali n hari raya) which happens to my birthday week too, where ppl only need to take like 2,3 days of leave and can go off for the whole week. As much as I want to go, but I'm really like damm broke now from my driving lessons, moreover I've just been there in march this year. hmm... there n again, there's disneyland, dim sum,shopping, blah argh... sianz... I wan more money! gagaga haha.

Meanwhile, really busy at medical centre everyday... tons of paper work to do as audit draws near and there's more n more ppl nagging at me to do things. sianz. The warcraft dota craze isn't quite over yet, kinda funny as I've already long past the dota-obsession period. But i still join them for fun la. heheh.

hahah i realised i'm not the only one who hold the same views towards superstar after all. LOL..
Rather disappointed and disgusted with the results of jue dui superstar. I think sgporeans should wake up their idea, this is a competition and we're looking for someone who has the looks, dance and sings well. This is NOT a charity show. There's certainly a limit to how much we can sympathise, and at this stage of the competition, its high time that talent becomes a more critical and decisive factor than sympathy. I feel really sad and wasted for junyang.. I realy think it would be a great laughing stock if weilian really wins the competition. . Some of u might find me abit extreme, or prejudiced, but I really feel that voters should cast their votes based on one's talents, and to the who has the ability to be a superstar. Realistically speaking how far can weilian go? I really feel that junyang won him in almost every aspect.

I dun mean to be superstitious or wad.. some how bad things seem to occur after one another ever since the start of u-know-wad month. My auntie(da-gu) passed away yesterday.. actually she was already pronounced brain dead on friday. I was really stunned when dad called me from malaysia(most of my paternal side relatives are in KL) on friday..she had this benign brain tumour and underwent a surgery on monday.. Was kinda worried initially cox the op was already delayed b4hand due to her HBP, but dad called on tues saying that the op was successful so I thot everything was fine and over. But things took a turn and her condition kinda deteriorated on thurs/fri i think, her BP became very unstable and eventually causing her brain to suffer from a lack of oxygen..and...

I can't help but feel abit affected even though I'm not very close to her, mainly due to infrequent communication and contact.. think the last time i saw her was in dec'03.. but she's always been a very nice and caring aunt, and worthy of my respect. i really din expect things to turn out this way.. Somehow I dunno why i feel abit guilty or wad, I think its just me regretting not seeing her for the last time and spending more time with her b4 she left. Should I have went back to KL with my dad for the past 2 weeks.. haiz. To everyone out there, thought its a very old saying but pls cherish the ppl around u, b4 its too late. Somehow I feel abit guilty for spending my weekend as per normal, its not as if i'm cold blooded, but i just feel that cooping myself at home and brooding over it will not make things better.. Haiz.. I hope my dad is feeling okie..

And now I have this grandaunt in hospital now waiting to go into operating theatre, she has HBP too... think she has some gall bladder infection or dunno wad. not v sure. I really hope she will be fine.
