Back to Basics
Just changed the template and now i'm using Blogspot's own template. I guess i like this better than my previous template :)
whew... Finals is over. the First Sem is also over. i'll be graduating in a few months. this is getting pretty scary and exciting.
So what's keeping me busy now that the sem's oveR?
Well.. all i do is just relax. Have downloaded some US series and movies from down under. And yes.. i MISSed a lot!
Already done watching Corpse Bride and it was good. although the copy that i downloaded wasnt that clear but hey i can't complain. The movie was ok. It was a story about a man getting marriend the next day to a woman he doesnt even know. But at the moment they met they got to like each other. But things during their wedding rehearsal didnt end up well and the man ran away and eventually practiced his line and unknowingly inserted the wedding ring to a DEAD person's fingers. Well you'll get the story from here and i dont want to spoil the fun. :D
What was interesting with this movie was that it was the first animated movie using Stop Motion Animation Techniques.. So DUH what is it? Well, this technique uses photos. The puppets movements are shot using a still camera. so this means they change the puppet's posture, action, etc. using a camera. Then they put everything together in a computer and voila you got a movie!

The culmination of a 10-year engagement, “Corpse Bride,” directed by Tim Burton and Mike Johnson, is a revolutionary marriage of stop-motion animation techniques, digital photography and digital movie editing. Shot with Canon digital cameras and edited with Final Cut Pro on Power Mac G5s at Three Mills Studios in London, the film marks the first time stop-motion animation has been shot in digital.Oh yes.. did I tell you that this was made on MacOS X? hehe

HeartBeats...
It has been a while... missed posting... been only posting lyrics of songs and some interesting "articles"
anyway.. so what's up for me?
all i can say is S-T-R-E-S-S...
I really have no time for myself, well, not entirely.. but all i do when i go online is to just check my mail, then some forums that i frequent.. BNCXE n Philmug.. and that's it.. sometimes i just download songs..
i miss watching the movies.. that last that i've watched so far was The Longest Yard. It was a good movie. I enjoyed it. And i watched it with my thesis group mates! :D
Anyway, I just finished downloading The Corpse Bride but i havent really started watching it. Although i opened it once just to check if the quality was ok. Guess I'll be watching it next friday.. Maybe my ONLY rest day Next week. Coz the week after that.. FINALS!
Studies... Well, so far so good.. although most og my major subjects are on the rocks.. near passing.. My quizzes so far this finals period are ok, except for Genetics and Embryo.. did a big booboos on the first quizzes.
Genetics lab.. a bit stressing... crossing/breeding fruit flies was not an easy job... we have to isolate VIRGIN females... argh already did three crosses but they died.. luckily, the last one that i did was successful. On it's 4th day, there are larvae ! Yippee! Crossing my fingers now... hope it continues..
BioSoc latest project.. Hale Concert... APPROVED!!! NOw... reserving the Med Auditorium....
BioQuartz 2nd release is on the way... just waiting for the articles... :D
It's been 5 months since i switched to Mac! :D And i have no regrets... although one regret is that it really is "expensive" owning one... the range of accessories available are just too hard to resist! hehe Been using the Mighty Mouse for a week now. And so far, i'm loving it, no regrets! Very light! Even lighter than my old "portable" mouse. Recently bought 3M BumpOn. A cheaper alternative of the SpeedBalls.. but i have used it yet..
What can i really say in switching... I think i really made the right decision :) I've been working more effectively. It NEVER crashed.. in 5 straight months! before when i make a powerpoint presentation i would really have to save the work once in every slide coz there is a 70% chance that it will just crash. now, i dont really have to worry about saving my work every now and then as i work through it. Mac never fails to surprise me everyday.. now if only Yahoo would update the YM for Mac..... ;)
Just heard my parents love story ;) will post them on my next update! :D I still have to do my SCL9 project...
