Going into High Alert

What is a kingdom? Biological taxonomy? A place where theres a king who rules over the citizens? United Kingdom which consist of England, Ireland and Wales? Well thats beside the point today, as the topic mention yes its about the movie The Kingdom. Starring Jamie Fox and Jennifer Garner. It takes place in Saudi Arabia where an American residency for an oil company is hit by suicide militants. News then travels to America where Fleury (Fox) is notified and is called back in to the FBI office to catch up on the events. In the process, a fellow agent reporting from Saudi Arabian gets caught up in a second bombing in the same place much later when rescue attempts are being made. Things however do not go as planned and the United States is not authorizing Fleury and his team to make landing in Saudi Arabia to investigate the site however he does make some favors and a side threat to the ambassordar of Saudi Arabia and gets his team on a flight in. Upon landing things however do not go as plan. Without access to carry out any investigation the team is up against the clock in order to find a way to get involved with the bomb site investigation. Unknown to them, what lies in wait further on is far more than expected.

This one is a must watch for all you fans out there who would love to see some urban warfare.

Yeaps its nearing the end of the semester and I am trying to find some small timeframe window to blog a bit and also reply e-mails and such which unfortunately I don’t have that much to begin with neither would I be able to reply if I get any for now.

As it stands theres much work to do and theres also a lot of research to be done plus assignments and such. Have to really get the gears shifting into another level in order to cope with the nearing the end of the semester issues then its a 3 week break then 2 final exam papers.

Previously went for a training session for some stuff that I signed up for, had to pass a test it seems from that session in order to actually participate in the full thing and I did pass which I am thankful for and also am getting paid for it quite good actually.

Church Christmas party on the 14th, so many things happening once the break starts and not to mention paintball war after finals next January which I will be going for with a few fellow classmates. Hope theres enough snow for a good camouflage where I can hide or climb trees. Sounds like I’m going sniper at this rate.

Worship team practice previous Thursday was a great time. Had fun, and got introduced a new member to team. Not going to be playing on stage anytime soon or I might get assigned to the kids church instead on the other hand since that ministry needs musicians and they have yet to have a full band there.

For now I have to run, last practical to go for then its reports all the way and then final presentations and more assignments and reports.

Fro the time being here are two people who just turned a new age.

Links to their blogs to check out further what happen on their bdays and also for other surprises.

Gratz to the two of you and best wishes and may God further you in His will and works here on earth.

Due to the unbelievable boredom I have today which hit me all of a sudden I decided instead that I would add all sorts of stuff to my blog roll links. Yes I am adding short descriptions of what the people that I have linked to from my blog to theirs with probably the most best and short descriptions that describe them on what has happen in their lives. Well there isn’t much I can put so I will have to keep it short and concise though it might be offending to some people. Lets just hope that my blog isn’t a high frequency blog where tons of people will come everyday to check it out and see whats going on with me and so on.

Ok to top the list up, yes my shower and sink seem to have a sort of blockage problem and hence the slow drain of water down it. I wonder if there is something that is clogging the pipes. Looks like I will have to go out and get some drano to clear it out and I will have to do it at night when everybody is sleeping in order not to add anymore water that will dilute the solvent as its suppose to be added to the drainage pipe and little bit of water added in order to make it flow down. From what I heard from my dad, it takes like 12 hours for a complete clearing of the blockage. Looks like I will have to try with less time probably 8 hours or so as that would avoid anymore water from being added to the either the sink or the show stall drain pipe.

On the food note, yes my beef went bad in the fridge!!! Darn it, how could this happen? Well to tell you the truth, I put it in the normal cold compartment instead of the freezer and that was how the bacteria got to it and it went bad. So yes my fridge smells but luckily I check the fridge everyday in order to find out what I have left which at the moment is NO FOOD left. So I tossed the meat and to add to the shopping list more meat and vegetable in order to cook for night meals though I think I will get those later on since today I will be eating out for both meals as I have to go down to Wilkinson’s to check out for the drano and also probably a door stopper.

And just before I go heres a little something for all you people who tend to sleep in class often. The three stages of falling asleep from the right to the left.

K.O. ED 1/2 WAY FISHING

I felt, bored and lonely and wanted it right away. I could not think of other things.

The smooth feel that it had.

Those cold icy touch to my fingers.

Itching to strum all over the body.

Hard yet soft to the touch.

The sound you can hear.

Sexy for some who goes about.

Beauty as they say knows no bounds.

Yes it costs.

Its a relationship that requires commitment.

Meet my new….

Yes my new guitar.

The Yamaha APX 500.

Priceless…………………………………….

It was long and not that hard thanks to Grace Ong for her help in setting up this blog. Really am grateful for what she’s done on this. Great looking place here and now I have to work on keeping this place updated also properly maintained. Pictures? Well for now I will keep on snapping when I have the chance to actually do it.

For now I’m hungry and its time for a spot of lunch and then its off to guitarguitar to check out and see if they have stock for my new guitar that I plan to get here.

When was about to leave for Newcastle, United Kingdom my mother asked me what I would like for an advance Christmas and birthday gift as she was budgeting some money to give to me to either buy a phone or to get a digital camera. My father though would have liked to get a digital camera for me to take pictures since he is interested and wants me to take pictures of the place here and also send them back. Well as it is there is not much pictures to take here as I have not been wandering round the place at all and most of the student activities take place on a Sunday which clashes with church unfortunately.

So I went round town and looked up for the phone that I had always wanted. A Sony Ericsson w810i. Indeed I searched high and low and found a place that was selling it for and extra 58 SGD over the budget alloted to me for it. The verdict, it was out of stock and they did not expect to sell anymore of it. Disappointed I carried on my search around town looking for a place that would sell it. So happens that I was looking on the internet and low and behold I found a place that sold it at a lower price by at least 15 SGD. So I went and got it. with a 2 mega pixel camera this would suffice in taking some shots and sights around Newcastle.

There you go. Nice looking one is it not? I got the one in white since the black colour one was out of stock and the white one was a newer version compared to the old black one. Well I have quite a few friends who are using the black model here in Newcastle and that is nice. We can form a w810i club at this rate over here.

So I got a proper contract line here as if I were to use pay as you go I would be wrecking a bill of probably 50 quid a month not to mention more probably if with all the miss calls and such going round and round the place, well I could opt for it since I am a low frequency user but I would have to pay when people called me and that would drain my credit as I have some church mates who are also classmates and I tend to get some calls from them for some duration of time for help in work and also probably some side deals which I am not at liberty to state. So in the end it was better if I got the fixed line with tons of free minutes and free sms-es so I can go wild since it does tend to collect and roll over from one month to the other. Not much calling from me for the time being. So what phone did I get for paying 36 quid a month for?

Oh yes my spanking brand new N95. Unlike other plans this was the cheapest on the market as it stands due to it being only 30 quid a month and 6 quid for insurance. Other plans are like 35 up to 50 quid a month in some other places. O2 is the network that I signed up with and a contract of 18 months. Nice but I am not sure if I can actually change phone midway of my contract like in 9 months time I switch phones to something else as I would rather have gone for a iphone type of phone like the latest LG iphone that just came out and its 40 quid a month if I sign up at carphone warehouse which has an insurance of 13 quid a month. FREAK. Well they can terminate the contract if they like whenever they want unlike O2 which is a binding contract till the end of the 18 months.

There you have it from a Nokia when I first started to a Motorola then to a Nokia again then Sony Ericsson and finally back to Nokia again. Seems that Nokia will be the family tradition and line as my family is mostly Nokia users accept for my brother who is using a Motorola still and also my grandfather who is using a Samsung phone.

Welcome to the Kitchen where the food is exquisite and you will have an enjoyable and not to mention a night to remember. Well first up we ask the chef to give some feedback.

Chef Boh Chap: Gud ifning. Wecome to my restauren.

Customer: Good evening. So what is the special of the day?

Chef Boh Chap: Well, tu start ouf we have a dis called chicken with potatoes in frech dressin.

Customer: Very well then lets have a go at this dish.

Well the dish is served and soon the customer was on his way to a night to remember. Yes a night to remember indeed.

So I have come to know that this is probably the new place that we hang out now and that we are here for one purpose, to blog blog blog and blog more till all the saliva we have is all over the keyboards and also all over the screens. Well for the first up I really do not have much to talk about other than the fact that I am still new to this place and will be looking forward to learning more on how to use it and also what are the functions.

From Newcastle, weather here is getting colder by the day, staying in my room is not going to help and thus going out a night to find and grab a bite is a good idea. Church is a Hillsong type of church here and we’re having pray and fast for 3 days continuous. Due to medical reasons I am only fasting for day which is in fact TODAY! Work and assignments here are not that hard to deal with as it is pretty much straight forward but however there is a lot of reading up that needs to be done. Got myself into good fellowship here and also am currently looking round town for a guitar and bass and also probably an amp. I am thinking go with the guitar first since that is easier as the bass and amp would rack up a hell of noise.

From the hostel here, we had another false fire alarm yet again. The 11th one in 8 weeks. Yes 8 weeks and 11 false activations. The peak was 4 activations in a period of two days. Indeed it is bad. Not to mention that the fire brigade wants to prosecute instead just fines as they are rally fed up with all that false activations going on and not to mention we are a higher priority compared to other locates of emergency. Thus far there was no major incidents while the false activations were taking place here.

From anywhere else: Nothing much other than the food is good, weather is great, good people and good church.
