This week was filled with disappointment, consolation, enjoyment and foremost: free food; lots and lots of free food. Long story short, Midwest Games 09 was canceled, a bbq was held, then a treat from MSD, then another "makan2" at Asma's and finally another bbq. Maybe that's just how people are. Foods and friends can really cheer up the situation.
Then there was also the movie. I watched X-Men origin: Wolverine with Resty (not much sense in hiding it anymore) on Friday night. The movie was great. The company was even better.
All in all, this week started with a sad story but ended with happiness. At least that's how I feel. Hopefully no one is still grieving about the stuff that could have happened. Just be thankful of the happy things that came true in the end.

A Rite of Passage
This is the new music video from the Metal Gods of Dream Theater.
Dream Theater is one of the seasoned Metal band out there. They're about to release their 10th studio album called Black Clouds & Silver Linings. The single from said album is A Rite of Passage. Enjoy.

I have forsaken thou long enough
Finally an update. First post in the month of May and it happen on the 15th.
Just so busy with the final. Now the semester is over I can get to game again. Haven't touch the xbox 360 and ps3 for quite a long time now. Need to practice my guitar hero and drumming skill after abandoning them for too long.
Need to update my movie list. Can't remember the last time I went to the cinema (actually, I can but it's just a metaphor). I really wanted to see X-Men Wolverine and "Angels and Demons".
I'm taking Summer classes, and summer 1 term is going to begin next week. At least it's not gonna be too hard. At least I hope so.
That's all for now. I'll think of something more to write later.

next best thing to going into heaven
Is going to the Mayhem Festival 2009. Every year, only the best metal line-up can make it. This year is no different. The name Trivium alone is enough to make my eye tears in happiness. Add them with Killswitch Engage and Bullet for My Valentine, there's no way I'm missing this event. Owh, remember God forbid that I missed because of final exams? They're gonna be there too.
The ticket arrived today and it looks like I'm gonna go there alone. Unless there's someone brave enough to join. Let me warn that this is gonna be loud, fast and full of drunk people.
Another thing. Last Sunday was the grad nite for the seniors. It was a blast. I've decided to post some cool pics.

Slipknot - Sulfur
A new video of Slipknot was released last weekend. The song is called Sulfur from last year's album All Hope is Gone. All I gotta say is, being under water with the mask on must have been scary. Enjoy it.
Crazy weekend
Yes it was. A lot happened.
All of 'em was great. Some more wonderful than the others.
One was especially awesome.
It seems that a rumor started going around. Whatever it is, I can only say it's most probably untrue. I sense that it is going to hurt some people. And I hate to see any of them feel uneasy around me. Please stop it.

False Alarm
Went to see an optometrist today. I really felt like my eyesight was deteriorating. I was so worried that I had nightmares that I have to wear this ugly and thick eyeglass. So I went to Illini Eye Care to have an eye exam.
First off, they asked a lot of this bogus medical questions that for me, personally, has nothing to do with the eyes. Anyway, on with the actual test. The optometrist told me to read the letters across the room with each eye and I can read the lowest one, although not as clear as I used to see. He then turned off the light and use this scope with light thingy and check the inside of my eyes. He said it was perfectly fine.
Then he used the machines with the rotating lenses while I say which lenses makes the letters at the far end of the room look clearer. However I just needed 1 click to make it all better. He then gave me a pair of lenses with -.50 power and brought me outside to read the door sign (with is small as hell) from across the street. FYI, that was farther than across the room before. I can read it clearly with the glasses on.
So what's the conclusion? He said I can make a pair of eyeglass with power 50 (it was soo damn thin), or wait and literally see if it gets worst. He recommended that I just stop stressing my eyes by not sitting too far at the back and eat more vegetables to improve them.
All in all, it was just a false alarm. I still have great vision. Although not as perfect as before. Gotta start eating more carrots to get them back to 20/20.
