Someone outdoes you! Chatted with Jeff, and he's spent a decade of time collecting Dr Who episodes, and he's got all of them. Do you know anyone with a 42" plasma TV? Well, Jeff's not only got one, he's got a 50" LCD at home too! Dammit, that guy. I'm envious.
This morning, went to played table tennis and badminton at Unity Secondary. It's been a long time since I've played either.
Afternoon, went to the National Library to look for Foxtrot ("Orlando Bloom has ruined everything", "Am I a mutant, or what?" and "Your momma thinks square roots are vegetables"). Couldn't find anything except a copy of "Come closer, Roger, there's a mosquito on your nose", so, I finished reading that at the library. Then, I borrowed SHAZAM Archive 1, 2 and 3, and "Pearls before Swine".
On the way back, went up the MRT, and discovered that the cap for the MP3 player was lost, and went out of the MRT on the path back to the library. Fortunately, I found it along the pathway. Of course, that meant I wasted about 60-80 cents just going in and out of the MRT.

如眼睛可分对或错 这么一瞬间 看清楚我么 藏于心底那真诚 如何共你谱千载情歌 从我的身份判别我 这么的女子 会否深爱么 如外貌让人错用情 如何令你看真我 来看一次清楚 哭吧 是我不懂得欺诈 是你不懂我的好吗 仍然相信 真情是我深情未变假 来吧看吧 尽穷一生不可怕 尽穷此生不怨 不悔不恨 这是情的代价

Effective in 24 hours, I'm banning those RSS readers who refreshes too often. Such as every minute, every 10-minute, etc. I'm not a journalist, a reporter, or a publisher. There's no way I'm writing a post every minute, every 10-minute or something. Hence, it's illogical for people to check my blogs every minute. Yet these people do exists. The recommended checking / refreshing policy on my blog is once a day. I do not expect to post more than 3 entries every day....
