Let's Handsome~!!


Well, yesterday, to celebrate Nick-san's birthday, Mark, Glenn, Hao-man, Tabitha and I went out with Nick to Sentosa. Lunch/Picnic, and running in the sand told me I really need to exercise. still, it was fun and we went for zi cha near glenn's place after that.


So well, timely-ly, I've finished watching 'Handsome Suit' today! It wasn't as funny as I'd expected, or was looking for, but still, it's a nice show to pass the time. SO in honour of Nick-san's 19th Birthday, I 'handsomed' him. Guess who's Ms. Pretty at background! ahaha.

[You might want to click on the pic to fully appreciate my efforts to handsomise everyone!]

[btw, I feel proud that I actually bothered to protect my desktop against the upcoming (tomorrow) conficker virus via a critical update.

At 1200 hours, we will be launching...

CODENAME ZACKE!

with this famous words etched in our minds, Jeremiah launched codename zacke, the most awesome youth activity so far this year. And like I promised, I've uploaded everything on youtube. In this series of videos. (I divided the entire set into 6 arcs of roughly 3-5 mins) One has been published before and one is an unofficial/unreleased version.

So only 4 are new. But anyways, its gonna be shown in chronological order so if you have the time check them out. Wear earphones or raise your speaker volumes. I hope you guys enjoy it! Ouh, and I apologise for the low quality, I can't possibly upload 6 seperate 200++ mb vids onto utube right?

Genesis



Origins



Captain Slipper



Dog and Papaya




Epic Finale



Unreleased/Unofficial Version

Which serves well for passing time.


Yeap, engrish.com folks.

When I grow old,

I wanna be like this guy:

Women Fight Over 72-Year-Old Man

Embedded video from CNN Video


read the full article here!haha he pro la.

So anyways, I'm done with my 'captain slipper' arc of the zacke video, feeling pretty satisfied enough to take the time to blog and surf the web- that while i'm exporting the video.

So right now, my grandmother's talking to my mom, and she said (in hokkien) "I really feel that being the bad guy is more worth it" apparently in reference to the drama she's currently watching, she drew up references to real life incidents and drama shows she watched hahaha.

I should go talk to her :D

Title? look at pic la!


hahaha no luh, I don't really feel sian, more of yesterday though, cauz my eyes were dying from all the different tasks.
BUT thank God, after this morning's quiet time, I had wonderful worship and I'm reminded God is bigger than my problems so heh.

I just like this new art style :D

Ouh yahh, the latest news is, I'm condemned to a diploma specialised in Journalism. ahahahaha.
And everyone seems to not like journ O_o but oh well. so I guess you wouldn't want to lighten the mood with this clip my brother introduced to me?



Actually I don't find it THAT funny, but he was laughing his head off :O
_____________________________________________

Life-update:

hmmm,
I'm working on the video, and people who previewed it so far (only the committee and my family) find it hilarious ;D
I'm working on someones' shirts.
I have a shirt design in my head for very long now but I don't have time to execute it.
Shawn gave wengkeong and I the job of producing the next sermon design theme, thankfully wkeong is doing it.

I only really had one official day of holiday so far. So I'm sadly thankful, or thankfully sad. something like that.

Anyways, going out soon for lunch, and then online discussion with pantsLee on the bbq chalet.
Cheers all.

Movies I wanna watch

but probably won't.
Fanboys, is released today in theaters and although I would like to watch it. -$$$ > Movies. But I must say it would be nice to watch it, since George Lucas himself loved it. (says Wiki)

So aiyah, check out the trailer. And if you want to sponsor me, lets go! ouh wait, I have 70 cents in my ezlink card :*X



So sometime back, maybe last week, Mark woke up and appeared on msn,

"Dan go check out my noob blog".
"I already did, its badddd, as usual"
"Awesomeee, but did you see the latest entry, like JUST"
"no? isit baddd?"
"yeahhh its noobed up like me, go see"
"okay later. no wait. beg."

So much later I came onto his blog to see:


It's nice, quite cute, but still, A DECLARATION OF WAR.
So Mark, while we're on the topic of Fanboys,
Enjoy:


Ahahahaha, right, so I still intend to do shirt designs, but I'm reaching the climax of one the One Piece Arcs, so not much time to design, since its draggggy. And after tomorrow most of my efforts will be spent on editing the codename zacke video.

But I'm sure I can put aside some time laa. think so.
Maybe later I can go collect my shirt from the printer! :D yay

Sarang Hae Yo

[picture courtesy of hongzuo]

Anyways, yesterday we held codename zacke.
It was exhausting, "sunburn-inducing", "thirstingly", "large-scalely" fun.
We caught quite an amount of footage, will get them edited by the 29th. So look out for it!

Right, and I'll be leaving the house for the barbecue later at amos's place.
___________________________________________

So, "Sarang Hae Yo" or "I Love Daniel" in Korean, is my favorite korean song of late. Written by Kim Hyung Sup, I first heard it in the comedy/ romance show "Sassy Girl Chung Hyung". The show premiered in 2003, but I only watched it this year. Apparently I first read of it on Julia's blog before it started appearing on Channel U. Since then, I followed the 17 episodes and its gewwwdd.

So yeah, Sarang Hae Yo is that good that indonesia remade its own version! I'm serious haha. *shrugs* check out the song in the video, spoilers ahead.



So todays post is intended to encourage you guys to watch the show.


Unlike other stereotypical korean shows, this one is fast(er) paced, funny. It indulges in the viewers wish to see more happy than weepy stuff. And the 17 episodes fly by so fast its regretful. The cast is easy on the eyes and the show is comedic in nature, so compared to those winter sonata and all those dumber weepy self-abusive/pitying shows that sadistically compells you to watch and tear at the injustice etc etc etc. It really gave me a run keeping my tears in! Q_Q

This show is gewdddd.


I watched twice le. And I intend to watch once more before the holidays run out. So why don't you give it a go? Click here immediately.

Btw, the show is also known as "Delighful Girl Chun Hyang". A more far-off version had it as "Pleasurable Girl Chun Hyang" =_O hahahaha.

ho-hum


*update*
the 3mo black tee got declined :*(
I submitted the above, but I'm not banking on it, I just did it to experiment with a new designing style. Anyways~

Schedule for the day:

1. Meet Elijah and guys for regional youth activity meeting at 9.30.
2. Hand billing at 3.00 at Bedok with Matthew and Net
3. Leaders meeting at 7.30 at church.

Wednesday (tomorrow): Codename Zacke.

Its gonna be awesome, was doing a recce at pasir ris park earlier with Elijah and Timothy. We can just see all the fun we're gonna have tomorrow as a region (guys). Just pray that theres no heavy rain. And there will definitely be an awesome video, which I'd post on the 29th of March.

But man, today's one full day Q_Q. Hand billing is gonna suck later, but its all for His glory! so let's do it with praise! hahahahaha :*)

______________________________________

Anyways, I was reading the news yesterday, and they were talking about how 7 in 10 poly males fail their napfa. Wah lao eh, real scary la, since I'm nowhere near fit at all.

So i went to check the requirements for the test.

For 19 year-old males, a minimum of D and 15 points, here's what I need to do.

1. 34-36 sit-ups in one minute.


Quite reasonable, roughly one situp done for every 1.667 seconds at a constant pace for 1 min. Do-able, so no worries.



2. Sit and reach 37-40 cm.

which is slightly above a quarter of my height. =_=. this is crazy man, my sit and reach always real jialat. A 178 cm guy stretching another 40 cm. @_@ My tummy keeps getting in the way.


3. Standing broad jump: 222cm


been there done that. okay, no worries for this,
my fondest memories of standing broad jumps were seeing sherd sigh and having to redo it in secondary school- again and again and again ahahaha. He just couldn't jump, despite being so tall! ;X ahahaha

4. Shuttle run: 10.6secs

In secondary 4, ben and I and some of the rest, disturbed the lower sec student recording our results, into giving us an A ;p
heh heh, but still, this run isn't the problem, its the 2.4 that is.



5. Pull-up: 5-6

AHAHAHAHAHA.
Ask any of my secondary school friends!
Since I fractured my collarbone in sec 3. I wasn't really fit in the limb muscles. So on that day,
I did ONE PULLUP, dropped to the ground and said, "yay! I pass" and left it at that,
everyone around laughed and the teacher doing the recording was like =_='''

6. 2.4km run in 11.41 mins

wah siao liao. This is the killer, the award stealer Q_Q
To get a D, at a constant speed for 12 minutes, i need to run 3.333 metres for every second...!wahhhh. For 12 minutes I need to make 3+ metres in every second?!?! dieeeeee
......................................................................................arghghghgh *foams*
but right, since we're on the topic of exercise,

The Big Launch

was awesome hahahah. especially when wearing the new 'The Edge' t-shirts, real cool. everything flowed nice and smoothly and almost all the merchandise were sold off at the edge-shop $_$. haha but of course the profit will be used for more shirts la.
So anyways, check out the new edge site, its really awesome and cool, check out the podcast or the edge announcements and just let your eyes feast on the designs not done by me.

ALL RIGHT HERE


So this is my new shirt design, threadless apparently said my 'ouchman', 'pianoheroX' and 'plan2plan' designs were'nt up to standard. I agree to an extent, though it still hurts a little. But its okay, I'm still proud of them. Anyways, please anyone who wants shirts designs please refer them to me! I want to start a mini design business, maybe 30% commission for the shirts or something.

Right, that said, I'm going to Tampines Mall in a bit to print out my own shirt designs to wear! yay.

Remember ah, bring your friends who need shirt designs to me! :D

Friday, March 13, 2009

Yes~! its more shirts!!!


heh, so it's probably boring these days to come by and see shirt designs but heyyy, if designing's your passion, and with a load of free time and 2k to be won, imma gonna churn out one thousand shirts by month's end.

(woops near typo: 'churn out one thousand shits by month's end')




So here are the shirts, I tried out a panel themed design, and of course, severely ignoring threadless rules for an eight colour max design, heh heh. but still, *shrugs*

I like them.

So yeah, I've nothing much to blog about either, but it beats having nothing else to read. and also- billionth time you've heard from me: BIG LAUNCH is TOMORROW. Be there or be :D

Wednesday, March 11, 2009

Piano Hero X


My third shirt design submitted to Threadless :D
Hope you guys love it as well. heh.
Now I'm going out to get the banners ready for this sat, and thankfully Ben is gonna tag along.
So imma loneliz no moar~

Cheers.

Apart from that, wednesday gotta go to fusion hub to prepare for the big launch, thursday gotta go plaza sing collect banner, saturday is the the event, and next wed is operation zacke, kinda busy, but I guess its good, since today I actually took a breather and I found myself pretty bored.

Update

So we launched CODENAME ZACKE today at church, people liked the video, and the subway platter was awesome, so anyways, I uploaded the full version of the video, albeit a low quality one, but it's pretty entertaining especially if you have nothing in particular to do.

Wednesday, March 4, 2009

Holidazed

Okay luh, I'm very late in my update, sorry :(
but well, I just finished my media fast, which equates to no TV, no internet, no com no nothing, so I couldn't do anything. But now i can! haha

Well, since the day my last paper ended, it was non-stop, event after event for me, and this update would be about the very first major event that happened the day the holidays started!


BBQ CHALET


Aight, so we (Ben, Sherd, Reed, Jer, SJ, Eric and I) booked hometeamNS chalet at pasir ris for out bbq chalet, as well as to celebrate reed's birthday :D

So in no proper order, I dump onto you all, the pictures.


On the second morning of our chalet, Ben and I snuck into the other rooms (There were 4 bedrooms with 2 beds each) and took pictures before waking the rest up.

Jer

Sherd

Reed

SJ (This we took on the third morning, since he still had school)

SJ fiddling with my rubiks cube, he spoilt it! Q_Q now its not smooth


BBQ pictures~ anyways, thank God our bbq was awesome. The days we were there, it rained heavily in the afternoon, but they subsided in the evenings.





Funky action hero pose~

SJ and reed wrestling, but sherd was like "eh I missed the picture" then they were like, "ouh okay" *wrestles again* *Sherd takes photo*

IronChef for the day - Benjamin Lee Yi Ren, we had roughly, for 7 guys,

80++ Chickens (mix of buffallo wings, drumlets, 3 joints, jers extras)
70 Satays
20 hotdogs
20 garlic bread
20 crabstick
some otah
alot of soft drinks

So you can roughly guess how unhealthy we were. Ouh, and our kettle was rusted up, so we had soft drinks all 3 days and on the last night, when we ran out of water, we ordered mac delivery at 2am for only 6 cups of drinks hahaha



hahahah I look like yesman pic, but no, let me explain. I didnt know that reed was taking such a wide angled shot, so i stuck in my hand to give sherd rabbit ears then kena liddat lor.

Ouh, and this is sj parading in tight shorts.






Jer dancing to funky beats~! Sherd was playing his iTunes and SJ was like "lolwuts dat song durrr i wants" *copies song details in phone*





So yeah, it was orsum, tiring, alot of fun, and worth the cash, Xbox and frisbee and soccer was not taken in pics, as well as cards, we couldnt cycle since it was raining, but having meals together and stuff, awesomee man.
______________________________________


Aight, anyways, next saturday, Edge's Big Launch, revamped and looking better than ever, come and check it out, let me know if interested.


Well, anyways, as I said, I'm pretty busy :( i'm working on "codename zacke" previously known as "boys night out", and working on the big launch, so its kinda taxing, still got deadlines and stuff, so Q_Q but on the other hand, I'm finished with watching "Sassy Girl Chun Hyang" gewd show and ouh yah, to end this post, a picture courtesy of HZ, taken on the day we went aston's specialties for lunch and movies to celebrate the end of the exams, Valkryie sucks btw :(
