A blog.. is just another day.

And so here I am again..

As the title mentioned.. it's just another day.

Don't know why I feel so relaxed.. (wait wait..) I feel more calm.

Dateline for the 'Gahmen' project is today.. and I got the boards done. ONLY STILL AWAITING FOR THE APPROVAL!!

At the moment of this Typing-Of-This-Blog, I just feel worried about my girlfriend's family. Heard from her.. things are not going well. Or rather.. alot of arguments in the household. Sorry, I just can't reveal anything here... though this blog of mine is a NO-HOLDS-BARRED blog. Well,.. I just pity her.. Will pray for patience for her.

Hmm.. Oh.. I finally realised something funny today.

"NEVER WAKE UP SO EARLY TO MAKE LUNCH... IN THE MORNING!"

Sleepy like F**K sia.. though I am to wake up at 7.30m ~ 7.40am.. waking up at 7am to make lunch (wtf?).. is like a chore,.. and you know what I cooked up in the morning? MAGGI. Haha..

Here's my recipe..

Things you need.

- Packets of Maggi Mee.

- Grounded Black Pepper.

- White Pepper Powder.

- Packets of Cheese.

- Home-made Garlic-flavoured Butter.

- Hotdogs.

- An Egg.

- Tobasco Sauce.

How to prepare.

- Prepare 1 or 2 packets of Maggi. (Preferably Curry-flavoured)

- Prepare all the condiments that you want. (I love cheese and hotdogs in mine)

- Pour about a 3/4 full of water from a decent-sized bowl.

- Boil water.

- Pour in the Curry powder from the Maggi packets. (1 packet is enough)

- Add enough Grounded Black Pepper.

- Add enough White Pepper Powder.

- Stir.

- As it begins to boil, place the Hardened Maggi Mee in.

- Leave it to soften for about 5 ~ 10mins.

- Add enough of your Homemade Garlic-flavoured Butter.

- Stir again.

- Add a little Tobasco Sauce.

- Add an egg.

- Stir.

- Finally, add Cheese.

- Stir 'til its dry.

- Serve.

I love my meal to be spicy... 'cause I've been brought up with eating spicy food. Haha. That's why there's alot of Pepper and Tobasco in. Well, I prefer Grounded Pepper as, when I eat and munch, I can have this crunchy feel to my food. White pepper powder is just meant to make my meal spicier. Tobasco.. for me.. it adds.. a tangy feel to my food. Hehe.. Oh.. yeah.. I guess you have to make your own Garlic Butter. I was lucky, that my mum still had leftover Garlic Butter in the fridge from last Saturday. That added a whole new taste to my Maggi. Hahaha.. love it! It's nice and feeling.

Have fun trying, ya?

P.S.: Should've titled the entry.. "Cooking With Hammett". About half the entry is my cooking recipe. Heh!

I need a break.

Sorry, haven't been updating my blog.. heh.. by the way..

And here's a drawing of my boss I did when I was bored..

Hehe..

----

The most hectic week of my time here at my company was last week.

I was 'attached' to 3 producers in a space of a week. I am always involved in this particular project from the time I got hired. Then, immediately, I was attached to another... and not long.. I was drafted into another 'cause my colleague couldn't handle the project. Haizz..

Been jumping from one project to another. Well, let's just say, I'm officially left with one project which is due on the 2nd week of December.... AND STILL NOT YET APPROVED!!

I'm feeling the unnecessary pressures already.. what can be approved.. is not happening at all. I thought our ('cause I'm working with another on this) ideas are working fine.. hell, we were contradicted. Damn, the producer rejected the idea, after we got it approved earlier on. Haizz... again..

Now, I got to complete.. the "unapproved" works by tomorrow. Get all the storyboards done... (mind you.. I'M ONLY DOING E-CARDs!!).. then get approved and sent to client for pitching and then,.. we get to execute the production of the designs. What am I DOING? I'm not hired for this! oh well....

My Saturday got burned. I came back to office finish up my 'boards. At first, I wasn't alone.. then I was. That's the most boring part of all. No one in office.. all alone doing work.. but I got into the groove and managed to do about all.. WHEN SUDDENLY, my colleague came into office.. JUST to collect his mp3 (which he left in the office). What the hell.. Haha..

Celebrated my mum's and bro's birthday together at my aunt's place on Saturday too. Haha.. very very awkward. Haha.. anyways, been slowly catching up with my games.. and my dating life again. So nothing much is new in life for me right now.

Anyways,.. dateline for my project is tomorrow.. and my team is about... 3/4 done.. we're almost there. HOPING HERE THAT MY IN-CHARGE WILL APPROVE IT!

I'll update again real soon.. laters.

Gaming Weekend.

Had a terrific day yesterday.. Caught Tropic Thunder with my significant other, the one I cherish, my Girlfriend.. Siti Warda. Damn, was she hot yesterday.. been looking so good lately. Love her so much!

...and one right between the eyes!

Woahohohooo.. just completed a mission in which I'm required to assasinate a target. Shot him with a Dragunov Sniper Rifle. Right between the eyes. Hehe..
Welcome to the dangerous and dusty world of Far Cry 2. A wonderful game with an open-world concept. You may choose to trek the jungle or bash through the pathways with a vehicle, to get to your target. For the first time, I feel so fulfilled being a mercenary. Hehe.. Reminds me of GTA4 with First-Person View, less the urban landscape.

Another great game I'm nearly completing, Dead Space. The most anticipated horror game of this year, 2008. Even previous versions of Resident Evil, pale in comparison with Dead Space. It's so scary, I really nearly peed in my pants (actually, I've been holding my pee even before the installation of the game.. haha..). Killing enemies (the Necromorphs) are so fun and fulfilling. Story is good too, unlike Doom 3's. But the best parts are the scares! Go and play it!!

And lastly.. Pro Evolution Soccer 2009, is a rather interesting game for me since I finally get to live out my dream as a professional soccer player.. but its just the same game when I play the other modes.. kinda bored after awhile.

Looking forward to GTA4 and Fallout 3 on PC. But I believe GTA4 will be THE game for me to get.. and last for a long time. Hahaha... Getting broke by the minute.. Hahahaa..

"Under-Appreciation" is the new buzz word at work.

"Even a superhero is under-appreciated always..", says a colleague of mine.

That's how I feel recently. Contribution seems to be the talk of the past few days when I had a talk with him. Clearly, he does not appreciate my help or effort. He thinks I'm not suited to be a storyboard artist.. and my works are SHITTY!

OF COURSE IT IS SHITTY!!.. 'Cause, today I realised why they say all that! I saw a video of the animation's animatics. I was scolded for doing a bad job.. but I explained.. most of the ugly drawings.. wasn't mine at all! It was improvised by the editor, who can't really draw well. (And for that I got put down.)

I guess I don't need encouragement.. I just need reassurance and guidance. I have to thank my ma'am, my in-charge, who supported me and believes I can do better and great jobs. I know I can.. I just need that oppurtunity. I've been getting clean-up jobs that DO NOT SHOWCASE MY TALENT!!

So from now on.. I'm gonna go and push myself and do better. Time to level up.

Hehe.. and by the way, I got myself wonderful games.. Pro Evolution Soccer 2009, EA's Dead Space and Ubisoft's FARCRY 2. All PC..

ONE HELL OF A MONTH FOR ME...... wallet is just getting lighter and lighter.. shit!

More on the games real soon, aight?

Further disappointment.

Hey, ya know what..?

I've just been added more stuffs to my already piled up workload at my workplace. I'm handling two more projects. Wow, I really have to manage my time.

And I'm still suffering from a mild rash on both my wrists.. thanks to my Reservist. You see,.. I guess my wrist was not exposed to the irritations of the uniform for so long. Normally, I don't where Long 4.. and being in Long 4 for about the whole of my Reservist.. it began to itch.. but I went with it.

Haizz.. what bothers me most now.. is that, my bro has not improve much from his last exams. I read through the report book.. I was just sullen and silent. I just don't know what to say or do.

So,.. for now, I've devised a plan to make him see (or realise) how he has fared out this past few years.

I made a chart. A Progress Chart, to make him see how he has.. well.. progress.

I hope this will open his eyes.. as it did for me in the past too.

Time to make a change.

After 3 days..

Finally! After 3 days worth of wait.. I've got the Hari Raya Outing pictures of me and my old mates.

Here, enjoy this pics for now..

The second picture with a close lady friend of mine.. Heh,.. reminds me of a well.. better looking Norfasarie (Wife of Singapore Soccer, Defender Baihakki Khaizan.)
Funny lady ahaha... anyways.. whoever wanna make friends with her..

NOTE: Taken already arh.

And by the way,.. life is back to normal at work. Still got loads of stuff to clear. Sheesh!

Will update more real soon.

Settling back into life.

I'm finally able to sit and slow down my life as I de-Army myself after about 12 days of In-Camp Training. Heh.. It was a rather interesting 1st ICT (In-Camp Training).

BUT A SERIOUS WASTE OF TIME FOR ME AND MANY OTHERS! Haha.. well, it's over now.

Damn, I'm still drained and shagged from yesterday's Hari Raya outing with my bunch of old mates from my Primary School. Miss 'em all! Everyone just looked great, and as usual,.. I'm just a simple-looking one there. Pretty fast the day went, after we... flitted from one house to another. Hehe.. after all the hectic moments in the day.. we settled down at night with another outing..... at the new shopping centre at Pasir Ris. We went there and had a damn hilarious time watching "House Bunny"! A great date movie!!

I only wished, when I was watching the movie,... that the lady friend who sat beside me, was my gal. Haha.. miss her so much.

Oh btw.. I did not mention at all that my gal is in London to visit a relative. Yeah she's there, just got a her email yesterday night. Hehe.. my goodness,... smiling all the way reading the message. Too bad,.. I can't reply back to her since she can't get into contact again with a computer for the next few days.

With a parting piece, I love you too dear.

And everyone.. hope you guys enjoy your day and have fun!
