to start anew?

new blog layout! it's still orange though. :D the old one's pictures disappeared from photobucket so i had to stop using it. i'm sorry ichigo :C

(complaint warning)
i do not, for the life of me, know how to change my blog layout using my mac. i had to use another PC in my house (thank goodness i'm at home during the weekend, or i'd have to live with the ugly pixelated "the picture you are looking for is no longer available on photobucket" crap till the next time a Windows is available to me) to open the layout in notepad. my mac kept opening it as an image document, even in text edit. :/ yes TEXT edit opened my layout in an image-like form and allowed me to change the text on that page ONLY.

times like these always make me wonder whether my mac has parallel. and if it does, how do i activate it and go back to Windows? also, whilst it is running Windows in parallel, does that make it susceptible to viruses? or does it being a mac make it completely immune, even when Windows is running on it? so many questions, NO ANSWERS.

this coming week is a week full of auditions and dance for me. hence my mixed feelings. nervousness + excitement, tension + anticipation.

MONDAY
open classes

TUESDAY
Eusoff committee interviews
Eusoff dance auditions (changed it lol, after being persuaded by wj)

WEDNESDAY
Blast! auditions omgggg D:

a fun week ahead. not to mention this week marks the start of tutorials for all of us. whoopee.

another point i'd like to share with everyone:
i really don't like how 10% of my Japanese Studies grade is dependent on IVLE Forum participation.
"You will be graded for your quality AND quantity of posts."
i.e. 5 sentences -- 5 paragraphs. @____@
i cannot stand reading chunks of poorly paragraphed long-winded maybe even copied/paraphrased text on ancient Japanese history. so ancient that it's before the Samurai period.
YES IT'S THAT ANCIENT.

we have had ONE lecture, and already the JS forums are nearly flooded. Singaporeans ah. *shakes head*

i realised i'm becoming more critical and cynical in my blog posts MWAHA i should tone down a little before i become guilty of SLANDER. :O

heh also, Nick Oh's facebook status caught my eye the other day. xD a few of his friends, including me commented on it. here's how it goes:

Nicholas Oh clubbers dance like they're possessed lol.

and here are (most of) the comments:

Nicole Tay: i totally agree.
Nicholas Oh: and it's actually pretty SCARY haha.
Vincent Khoonz: Clubbers club like they want to lose their hearing
Nicholas Oh: yeah! and the woofers can alter heart rhythms LOL.
Vincent Khoonz: I won't be tempted to go back anytime soon.
Ng Yijing: LOL that guy who was like jerking all the time?
Nicholas Oh: well all of them. they throw their heads back and forth like their c-spine's broken while they do half squats lol

XD
made me laugh and also smile to know that HEY THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE WHO THINK LIKE ME. XD
