Interesting news in the world…
June 24, 2006
I’m taking a break from constructing my thesis outline. I’ve been at it for the last couple days even though I was told to get one ready last week. It’s due on Monday. I have a strong feeling that I will never change. I will continue to be the procrastinator I am cursed to be. =P
I was reading some news on Yahoo! and a couple articles caught my eye.
I don’t know about you guys but I grew up watching shows like Saved by the Bell, Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, Home Improvement etc. So imagine my surprise when I read about Screech (Dustin Diamond) from Saved by the Bell is selling T-shirts to raise money to pay for his house!
Each T-shirt costs $15 and if you want his signature it’s 20 bucks buster! Sheesh, talk about extortion. He’s selling the shirts on his website.
Personally I’m not going to pay about RM60 to help this guy out lah but I must say it’s quite ridiculous to charge an extra 5 bucks for his signature at a time when he needs FINANCIAL help from his “fans”. I don’t hate the guy or anything. He did make Saved by the Bell funny in his geeky-nerdy way. I’m just saying, beggars can’t be choosers. *shrug*
BUT my favorite in Saved by the Bell (who i thought was just the most gorgeous thing BACK THEN) was none other than Mark-Paul Gosselaar aka Zack Morris. Note that I emphasize on BACK THEN.
See I told you he was HAWT (back then).

Back to my thesis outline, I’m having troubles coming up with titles for each chapter. My supervisor insists I use my “creative” brain to come up with something, well, CREATIVE seeing as (and I quote) I “look like a REASONABLY intelligent person”. I’m not sure as to how I’m suppose to take that comment.
What to do, what to do… *ponders*
Oh yes, I (well technically Rob)now own(s) www.shin-yi.com. YAY I’m not sure how to manage my own website but at least that one is owned. Unfortunately, www.shinyi.com is taken but according to Rob www.shinyi.com can be easily mistakenly pronounced as shiny I(eye). com. Hehehe so shin-yi.com is good for me. I’m wondering how I can import all my blogger contents to it and maintain my own website. I think that will be tough. I didn’t pay attention in class when they were teaching MS Frontpage. But of course, don’t expect too much lah. I’m no Kenny Sia. I was too busy sneaking around website surfing and chatting. =D
I’m sitting here listening to Mix FM. 80s and 90s music…ahhh, brings back memories. Okay, okay I won’t go all sentimental and go down memory lane. I’m getting old. Next year I will be a quarter of a century years old. *sigh* Life life life. Such is life. No, I’m not like depressed or anything.
But here’s a closing thought. Life is a bitch, so let’s all join in. =P
