Handphone Craze

Was downloading games and themes for my new handphone on tuesday night until 6 am! I was quite shocked with the enormous amount of games i can download from the internet and transfer to my handphone. Overall, K750i is really a thoroughly amazing phone although the ring volume is a bit soft in a noisy environment. The sound quality is great, the picture quality is great (except indoor shots), the colours are bright and clear, the ringtone and message alert customisable to play mp3, able to record video and sound, lasting battery life, and lots more.

Wednesday, met up with Bing Feng, Anthony and Xi Kun again to discuss the aerospace project. We planned to go National Library but decided to go SMU to take a look instead. Xk had asked his friend to bring us inside and help us get a study room. Along the way, i found out that SMU has significantly lesser students than NTU and NUS. Take a look at this picture i took in the underground passageway.

There was totally no one in the tunnel at the time of the shot and along the way to the study room, less than 20 people walked past us. It is a really conducive environment to study in but it feels weird that there are not many people in the school, considering the people space ratio in a JC, seconday school, etc.

Inside the study room, we set up the laptop and arranged the tables for discussion until we discovered that we cannot access the internet there. It either had to be correctly configured or we needed an account to access the internet. We left the study room after 10 minutes inside and proceeded to the new National Library.

Basement 1 was packed with lots of people and we headed up to level 7 (Reference section). People with bags are required to put them in lockers. Since we got no other place to discuss, we have to make do with the hassle of bringing the required materials after depositing our bags inside the coin-operated lockers.

We finally had some headway after we compiled a content page and collected quite some info from the extensive collection of reference books. We then split the project into 4 parts for our detailed research.

Met up with Edwin, Clarence and Derrick later to watch Kim Ki-Duk's The Bow at night. The story is as usual offbeat at the hands of the acclaimed director. The study of greed, lust and sacrifice is well-crafted but disappointing compared to his previous works, namely 3-Iron, Spring Summer and Samaritan Girl. The cinematography is fabulous and the setting picturesque, a fishing boat amidst the limitless ocean .The main flaw is in the story which lacks oomph and emotional resonance.

Someone stop me, i'm spending too much money!
