Lux V burnout

Cold days in the office recently. Seems that Acendas is secretly storing VX gas or using some part of the building as a morgue. Outside the weather seems to be hot n humid but I can`t even feel my fingers even as I type.

Sad thing happened yesterday night. Finally waited for a full month for all my parts to arrive separately from US. After an of hrs of struggling trying to solder all the tiny components together(burnt my thumb in the process), the Mag Space Needle was a failure due to a amateur mistake. Shorted out my Luxeon V WX1T emitter and ruined my DownBoy 833 converter board. Expensive mistake. The disappointment is equally great. Never mind, it shall live again when I have enuf funds again... maybe next yr...

Will be moving to Depot Rd in a couple of months time. My place now is filled with boxes. Most of the stuff is packed liao....Wow din notice we got so much rubbish all hidden away. Gonna miss Teck Whye!

Tragic Day for NJD

Ok a mini recap,

The worst of my fears all came true for the Cineleisure performance. The stage size posed a problem( Mark even almost slide off the stage in one choreographed fight), the audience was unsupportive(there was jeers), and the performers lacks alot of maturity. The only consolation was that They never screw up the entire performance, kudos goes to them for remembering their routines. Unfortunately, I got lotsa info from various sources that there are expert Martial Artist who went down to see the performance out of curiousity. Personally I would not blame the juniors for the outcome but would like to slice n dice the MC on stage that day. He couldn`t have kept his big bloody mouth shut. Making stereotypical noises and shouts that is often heard in those 70s kung fu movies. Making the whole scene cheesier and masking out the music that my Juniors are listening out for the timing. Basically his jokes are definitely NOT funny and the comments that he said about us able to break bricks with our heads and some of us decendants of Bruce Lee is definitely out of point.

It could have ended there but no......the committee had to do "extra" performance after the actual one. Wonderful. As if we had not shamed ourselves enough. They had to go on stage on try to break the remaining tiles. Pls....we did not book Cineleisure. Over a hundred pair of eyes are watching and this is NOT Ngee Ann. Colin and I was so embarassed of their actions that we just had to siam to one corner. Had this urge to just go on stage n drag them down. But did not cos I dun wanna make them paiseh. They can`t even hold the tiles properly. Let alone accomplish breaking the tiles. G***** even failed to break the tile after five kicks!!! After the 2nd kick it was too painful to watch on.... n the MC just had to rub it in by requesting to break one of the tiles too. Too much to blog here on wat happened that day. But Chris gotta take the cake as usual. Totally broke his hand while attempting the break....end up gotta send him to hospital. Nice.

Enough for now.

Next post gonna be more happy ones...
perhaps about more torchlights!!!! *big big grin*
