Long Time Coming

Its been a while, but blogger has finally launched a template-designing feature for blogger. Maybe because of competition from tumblr? Speaking of which, I had abandoned tumblr for like a year already, but i still like the 'smokey' picture and green background.

I know that there's been a lack of updates, even though its the holidays... But then again, its usually the time where most people sacrifices blogs for TV, games and so on... Ironic, isn't it? Usually we have no time to update, and yet now we still have no time to update.

Even though there has been a lack of excercise whch I have promised to myself to do, at least I didn't waste too much of it. I went to Sunway's holiday programme! Lecturers, atmosphere was good, though the food they had for us left me longing for the food sold instead by the other stalls set up in the cafeteria. Good variety too, there was even a stall selling 'authenic Iranian cuisine', bundled with words that sounded like they were lifted straight out of the Quran. The content of the workshops were also not bad, for RM20.

For some crazy and unknown reason all my tuitions were held early in the morning. Chemistry- 9.00 am. Add Maths- 8.35 pm. Too early la, i tell you, especially when one sleeps earliest at 12 everyday.

Also, I have been trying to get a car under control in NFS Shift. And no, the game is not very good IMO. It is said that it has a good balance between a realistic and arcade feel, but I think its just too little of both. Not as precise as Gran Turismo, not as easy as previous NFS games. The feedback is lousy and laggish. i would press the turn button and the car just does not turn. Split second later, it suddenly intercepts it and twists the car off the track. Blame the preset settings for that. Race Driver Grid does a much better job in this half-half feel. Either that or its just that I haven't adapted to the game yet. I won't be wasting much time on the game now though. I have already given it its due.
