Was taking a break from mugging. Read this.

I should be studying for 007...

Yes yes. I should be studying for Thursday's 007 test now. That's if I want to make it for tmr's drum class. Owells...

Well, I think the 'grade' issue is more of a gone-case now. Sent in an appeal and the office will get back to me in a month's time. Well, in the words of the prof, chances of successful appeals are really low. Even if there's a mistake committed by the office during compilation/tabulation, tendency is that they won't amend it.

Guess I should leave it as that. Shan't talk about it anymore.

Will learn from this: to trust and to be humble.

Just so you know, 2 posts back, the one regarding all the double-0 'agents', they ARE my course codes. Haha!

CNY celebrations wasn't exactly a blast. Constantly thinking about the work that had to completed. To think of it, gonna graduate in about one year. Wondering what lies ahead. Wondering what should be done. Wondering what is planned for me. Wondering the wonderings...

Know what? I have people asking me (during the CNY visits. those nosy aunties and all): "So when are you graduating? ... ... Oh i see, very fast hor... ... looking for a job soon? ... ... Oh i see, see how hor... ... SO WHEN ARE YOU GETTING MARRIED? ... "

For all blinking-nuts in the world, I was beyond words and the only one audible vibration my throat could conjure was: "huh?"

Man am I getting old. 24. 24 24 24... I'm almost half one-third through my life. Half a decade more to the 'elusive' 30.

6ists: wo men lao le. HAHA!

Just a random thought. Re-watched Ironman (the movie) not long ago, and I wonder, of all the superheroes that made it to the big screen, which hero's life would have been the best to live in? I mean, have you thought about it? Maybe not the ladies out there, but I think guys... haha. Every guy must have thought about it at some point of your life?

"What if I was Superman... What if I was Wolverine... What if I was Professor X...."

So this was what I thought for which hero's life was the best to live in:

1. Superman: well, I think many would choose live in his life, no? You can fly, you have strength to shift the moon, bla bla bla. And OH! You can see THROUGH things, physically. *evil laughters*. But hey, I mean, having to conceal your identity whenever you put on that latex suit and have your red undies on the outside just doesn't cut for me.

2. Batman: Smart, rich, influencial, adored by the people of Gotham. Though he has got no superpowers, his super fit body and all the a-la-007 gadgets (maybe even better) works for him all the time. But living in a world where all the bad guys are psychotics (read: Joker), black undies on the outside, and mostly spending his time with his butler (old man) and gay partner, eh, I mean... side-kick Robin (young man), aint' really that enticing.

3. Professor X: This guy reads people's minds! But I guess that's the most powerful thing anyone can do, and that's one heavy responsibility to bear. Moreover, he's bald.

4. Wolverine: Strong, powerful, never gets injured (or rather, he heals ultra-quickly) and those really cool claws of his... ... However, he's just one sad sad character whom never got to be with the one he likes. Not the kind of life that's really attractive, though he's really cool...

5. Spiderman: Everyone's childhood hero! Getting bitten by the radioactive spider, he can scale walls, swing through buildings, super-human strength, spider-senses, etc etc... I mean, what more can you ask for right? Well, he's up there on my list. But not the top. You'll see why...

6. Fantastic 4: I think they're just plain freaky. Really. And they can't live without each other.

7. The Hulk: "Hulk angry!"... and he turns green. Enough said.

8. Ironman: Filthy rich, intelligent, suave, charismatic, and his suit... Ooo la la. His like a bit of everyone else. Though he has ZERO super-powers, but heck, he's as powerful! The cars he drives, his house (it's not a CAVE), his jets, his tech, the girls he date =P, his personal assistant... what more can you ask for? I guess that's why Spidey has to make way for him. HAHA! Ironman probably has got the best life for one to live in, wouldn't you agree?

I know there are many MORE on the big screens and whatever I just blabbled is arguable. But hey, a 24 year-old should technically be studying for his 007 test now, and this is his form of entertainment. So do let him have his peace. Thank you. =P

Oh, on another perspective, if I could just HAVE any of their superpowers and not live their lives, the guy with the red undies on the outside would be the obvious choice... who wouldn't want to carry their hot-dates in their arms and fly to Paris/Rome/London/Seville/etc for romantic dinners and more? And the ability to see through things is well... useful. HA!

Back to reality, back to my notes.
