And here it comes again

Filed under: 2 — Drew @ 12:25 am

Heh, the loneliness sets in again. It’s been what, 3 years being alone?

Can’t help it, loneliness still sets in. Time to just let it pass again, and hope it does it quickly this time.

FIXED.

FINALLY FIXED THE DRAGGABLE LAYER ISSUE.

So basically now, you can drag to your heart’s content and rearrange whatever’s in your way.
Click on the [-] on the right side to hide the layer. Recovery links are on the top left until I find a way to just hide the content and keep the bar.

Spam

Filed under: 2 — Drew @ 12:56 am

Ok, apparently some crawling spambots managed to get a hold of my shoutbox, which was relatively untouched for a few months.

I’m not suspecting anything, I’m not suspecting that someone intentionally did something to cause the shoutbox to be attacked, and I’m definitely not suspecting a particular person.

Definitely not.

Daily stuffs

Filed under: 2 — Drew @ 5:21 pm

Droning off from the working regiments of daily life.

It’s not even been a month, yet I feel so tired of it already. Perhaps I’m not suited to be an engineer to begin with?

Maybe.

Also, to all those who wish for a lifetime supply of [insert food/game/item here], for me, I would like a lifetime supply of wife.

Finally, to all those retarded jocks who think playing Rockband/GuitarHero makes you a rocking legend full of charisma and pwnage on a live stage, no, it doesn’t. You’re still the piece of failing geek trash underneath that jock image you’re trying to project, who will never be nor understand the workings of a live band and the audience. And justifying your choice in playing it only because it has songs you recognise does not make it a superior game – it just shows your cowardice and insecurity in trying new things.

So excuse me while I play Rockband the wrong way – by not playing it at all.

Personal life stuff

Filed under: 2 — Drew @ 11:34 pm

Semi-jobless now. Waiting for a confirmation, and seriously I don’t mind settling for it since right now it’s more of a chance for me to learn alot of new things at one shot.

Parents nagging at me constantly to find a job still. As if I haven’t been actively doing that for the past whole month. Just because I don’t flip the Classifieds in the physical newspapers doesn’t mean that I am not doing anything to find a job. Do they really think I just want to bum around at home, when to begin with, they don’t even give me money for my meals anymore? Do they really think that I don’t want to find an actual job and start building up my career and financial foundation so that I can settle down easily next time when the right one comes?

Speaking of the right one, I’ve just realised something:
I have totally forgotten how to go after a girl. Lady. Woman. Whatever she wants to be referred as. No, I’m not speaking from any recent failed expeditions, because I have not gone on any, nor am I in any position to attempt to begin with. Since, considering my financial status and time available right now, I am the least desirable in any potential female’s eyes.

I know very clearly and am extremely confident of the process during a relationship, how to maintain it, how to not screw it up too badly, etc. but apparently, I have totally forgotten, or rather, lost the ability to know how to take the first step to initiating one.

It’s like I know how to drive a manual gear car smoothly but I don’t know how to start it up. Seriously, that sucks.

And that’s the end of updates for my life thus far. Which apparently still sucks quite a bit. And no, I have not been IIDX’ing due to my worsening wallet condition.

Filed under: 2 — Drew @ 11:29 pm

Going for my first official job interview in less than 10 hours’ time. Ugh, hope I’ve filled in the forms correctly and got all my relevant documents.

Back from job hunt

Filed under: 2 — Drew @ 11:21 pm

Seems like quite a number of people applied for the same position. Guess I’d have to cross my fingers. And look for other job openings in the meanwhile.

Also, I’m not asking for much in terms of starting pay, since my degree’s not some gold embossed diamond crusted Dean’s list firstest first classiest class upper honourable honours.

Just hope I manage to get a job by next week.

Job hunt status

Filed under: 2 — Tags: — Drew @ 1:45 pm

Just got a call from some company after they’ve received my resume.
Seems like they are quite in need of people.
Will update more after I come back from the job meeting.

Adobe Premier Pro CS3

Filed under: 2 — Tags: — Drew @ 7:22 pm

Right, it has sucked away close to 20 hours of my life just because it refuses to sync properly, despite throwing in various different source videos for it to process, all the way from standard H.264 to absolutely lossless AVI. For ONE video.

I am so pissed off right now. I can’t believe that something that is free (t@b ZS4 Video Editor), but slightly slower and of a more low-levelled interface program, performs better and to much higher expectations than something people pay over two hundred dollars for that doesn’t even solve the most simple problems of syncing.
