my wonderful time today! more to come!

today is a totally awesome day :D although it didn't start that awesome heh!

firstly it's the stupid cloudy sky + rain. next, i planned to meet my
friend at a bus stop (i.e. i ride the bus, he hops onto the bus on the
way) but! he came late lor so i had to get off the bus... blah i was
getting comfortable on the seat (not to mention, he made me waste 45
cents) oh well, i think he was a bit sorry and paid for the entire cab
fare to the venue (oh well. i had to use the loo anyway) :P

enough about the less awesome parts! ok! jay (all names changed to
protect privacy) bought for me, FF XII and Utada Hikaru's SINGLE
COLLECTION VOL. 1!!! jay you're the best haha! thanks so much for
thinking of me when you were overseas hohoho! sadly, i already own a
copy of UH's SINGLE COLLECTION :( oh, and mine's also a chinese
version (or is it taiwan?) haha... i decided to do the CD and UH a
favour, by giving it to someone else whom had an interest in 'being
exposed to more music', mr. w. i hope jay doesn't mind :\ i've told
you i would give it away, anyway, heh. don't worry i'll record
somewhere (probably on the CD i already have) that you also bought for
me the CD :)

*mr. w tell me if you like UH ok? :D*

moving on, had really good food at ms tan's place :) love her western
food YUM! then a large bunch of us (16) played CRANIUM! omg it's such
a FUN game! however hor, i realised my acting chops are like, totally
sucky! my group only managed to guess "skinny dipping" and it's partly
because i was reacting, well, badly to it (for obvious reasons HAHA)
and mr. w is funny with cranium clay (i.e. playdoh-like substance)
WOOTS it was so fun, was laughing all the way!

interlude: how do we know that EVERYTHING we know is more than what
another person knows (and hence can conclude we are more knowledgeable
than the other person?) how would this implicate matters (knowing that
we're 'smarter' or 'more well-read'), matters of social/working life?

interlude 2: i think i'm better at drawing and singing than acting! as
proven by my better skills in pictionary (and the humming-the-melody
questions in cranium) than charades!

interlude 3: i feel a bit sad because i need to control my mouth and
mind sometimes heh! i know it's wrong and not nice to say/think of
certain things, but, i don't know, you can't help it but think/say it
:| although i must say some things i say contain no intended extra
meaning, although after i say it, i realise it could mean something
not-nice to another person. or maybe i'm too sensitive :|

was thinking of the above thought because i'm one of the few who know
"sweet dreams are made of these" by i-can't-remember-who haha

to cut my long story short, after more eating we left for home, and
chatted wif a few 'youngsters' along the way... one of them was
telling me about how this scientist proved that dinosaurs actually
only lived up till only about 6000 years ago (this length of time
coincided with the biblical Great Flood, which also happened about
6000 years ago and probably wiped out anything that couldn't swim and
get onto Noah's Ark) he proved it with carbon-14... basically
carbon-14 has a half life of a couple of hundred years, and after a
couple of thousand years (5000 or thereabouts i think :S),
theoretically speaking the amount of carbon-14 left should be
insignificant i.e. virtually no more!

ok the rest of the story is fairly obvious (you can make your
conclusions) - the so called dinosaur bones that were fossilised (did
i spell right?) for millions of years CONTAIN SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF
CARBON-14! which means, the fossils (and hence, the dinosaurs)
couldn't have existed anything more than the 5000 years or so (that
corresponds to the amount of time the carbon-14 takes to disappear)!!

another fact! a very concentrated bottle cap-ful of deuterium and
hydrogen-3 (i can't rmb the name of this isotope ARGH) that undergoes
nuclear fusion can blow up a third of the world! :O that's damn
dangerous omg! i'm thinking like, james bond-style action movies where
the internationally-infamous baddie just presses the little RED button
on a remote control and something important explodes!

if you're wondering why we were talking about all these, it's 'cause i
happened to be reading a book about quantum physics for laymen :P

yay one party is down, THREE MORE to go (equals less sleeping time)...
time to listen to songs :)
