I'm not going to apologise. I find no reason in saying sorry for the mere fact that I have not updated for a couple of weeks. Firstly, as all of you should know by now, my excuse is me being busy. I'll confess, I did find time to play during Saturday and Sunday but it was mainly for relaxation purposes. Did you know, blogging requires one to think? Unless of course you're letting your hand takes over, which would explain most of the unexplainable and incomprehensible passages that peppered people's blogs. I'm not referring to the majority. I'm plainly referring to my circle of connection. Then again, I may be wrong. I only visit a few blogs. Speaking of which, I shall now pop over to see Ms Tan's blog.

*comes back with a wry smile on the face* Yes, I've visited her... thingamijick if that's what she calls it. Ah, yes, I recall. A web portal. Strangely, the way she types is a bit different from how she speaks. I wonder whether its mainly due to the fact that since she never expresses emotions on the surface but through her tones, the words on the web portal fails to be more lively. It's also interesting to note that she updates very fast and finds the topic to do so. Compared to any of us, or as far as I'm concerned and aware, her creative juices are practically overflowing. But the fact remains that her style is still there. But Miss Tan truly has her essence in it. It puzzles me sometimes on how she holds power over us but we have a relaxed relationship with her. None of us will be afraid of her. Or rather, scared of her in the way we might be scared when Ms Cheong is angry. So far, we haven't experienced that. But Miss Tan's a good teacher. And I shall add her to my personal Annals of Great Teachers. AGT? ... I shall attempt to change the name. Recollection of Devoted Facilitators of Learning. RDFL? I don't seem to get a nice name. I shall try that next time. Ah yes, for those who will read this post today, please remember to bring $9 for the Island's Voices book next time. I, the unofficial Lit Representative of both 3T and 3G, will attempt to collect a full collection of $90 tomorrow.

Anyway, thank you to everyone who have wished me a Happy Birthday. I've turned a year older and hopefully, has not grown any white hair. I apologise for not personally thanking everybody but has to resort to this post whereby not many will be able to see. Nevertheless, I hope that this message will go across. Please do not be offended if you did not recieve the word "thank you" or "thanks" from me. I can't remember those who wish me before hand. I try to though. No names are mentioned for the sake of privacy. I repect the fact that my friends may wish to remain unknown and anonymous. Besides, its a brilliant excuse to not list out the names.

I also wish to thank all those who had bothered to get me presents. Namely, S.C.H.J, J.S, L.T. I suppose you all know who you are. Ahh... before I forget, back to those who wished me a happy birthday. Thanks to Joani and Shang and Geel who texted me. I appreciated that. Even though the messages came at different intervals, it still was on my birthday. Thank you once again to those who sent me um, in order, muffins (which didn't result in stomachache. Actually, I had a bit of diarrehea throughout friday and saturday...), sweets/chocalate and bookmark (although because I placed it in my bag that resulted a mini microwave effect) and Cadbury milk chocalate (whereby because of the mini microwave effect again, has been placed in the freezer). While Mel still ponders about what exactly to give me, I shall list out what I've been wanting. But then again, I believe its only temporary. At least, for a few. And I am not wanting people to give me. I just thought that since there's wishlist on a few blogs, I might as well come up with one. Just in case someone decided to give something to me.

In no particular order of importance/longing:
1. Playstation 3 (I don't have time to play though so its impractical)
2. Final Fantasy games from X to XII and upcoming XIII (but since I don't have consoles, what's the use)
3. Final Fantasy merchandise (keychains/OST/artbook/figurines/collectibles etc)
4. Novel Kara No Kyokai (Garden of Sinners) in chinese actually... It might be found in Kinokuniya
5. Novel Fate/Zero (prequel to Fate/Stay Night) Might be found in Kinokuniya...
6. Nintendo DS along with the upcoming Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings
7. Yukata (and an instruction manual on how to tie the obi also... considering I don't know how to tie. Actually, I don't even know whether I'll wear it. )
8. Kingdom Hearts games (But then again, the same with FF, I don't have the consoles.)
9. Merchandise related to Fate/Stay night, Kingdom Hearts, Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, and Final Fantasy (again, for repitition)
10. Able to view more Eminence Concert.

Ah... not a nice list. I know they're all material things but I suppose its nice to have. I appreciate and admire FF for the developers (Square Enix) plot and cinematic experiences. The graphics are also top-notch. That's what I like about them. KH is also by Square and that's enough said. Its also has a fabulous plot. Meanwhile, I suppose merchandise are out of the question. They do not appear to have any use other than take up space. I'll disagree with some people. I've problems coming up with designs for some of my characters because I'm unable to get proportions or clothes design. These items come in useful. And OSTs are the best things one can get. Who doesn't like music? Of course, this is hasty generalisation but many will agree. Part 9 is not really needed... I just thought of ending with a nice number. Please note however, that most of these items cost alot. The range would be $10 to um, according to digital life for PS3, $799. Not that any of you will buy them. Haha, its just what I like. Of course, to watch the Eminence concert would be more expensive that the PS3, considering there must be airtickets. Why don't Singapore bring them over? *sigh* Alright, I've ranted on long enough. Ciao.
