sorry guys for the late post!! i've been really really busy these days with schoolwork aaaand making a birthday present! :) lately, i just finished my mid terms so i spent the week relaxing quite some bit, catching up on some much needed rest! also....we got back some mid terms results and i felt like i did kinda meh.... not too good i guess? but i am glad that it is over! well it's only my mid terms that is over but some of my friends are alwready totally done with school which i am like errr....that's fast! looking ahead, given the busy uni schedule. we still have finals in december... and before that, the gap is filled with various projects, and assignments! hope it doesnt get too much!

life has been largely mundane? i've just updated to the new Mac OS, OS X Yosemite aaaand it just feels very iphone-ish! the icons take on a very minimalistic approach which i found it disappointing as it is taking on the same as the ios7/8. I am not digging this standardization, although certain icons like the finder icon and game centre got a nice update, looking a lot more vibrant! I feel that given how big the macbook screen is and with retina display, apple could have done better to improve the icon in my opinion...with so much space on the macbook, i very much prefer having those 3d-ish icons of the past just that they could have worked on them. so that there is still some difference between the usage of a macbook and an iphone..i've been using Yosemite for one whole day already since the 30min update in the morning, but it doesnt seem worth it updating... downloading takes 15mins, installing the OS and all takes approximately another 15! I initially thought that yosemite would be a nice upgrade for my Mac OS but i seem to be wrong....grossly wrong.

Changes that i found in Yosemite:
There is this dark mode now? to allow more comfortable usage in the night i tried it, kinda ummm,..nah.
the finder icon has definitely become a whole lot HAPPIER, plus point although....
the other icons have like a foot in the grave.
the sound adjustment sound is gone, which is a good thing IMO although the graphics for that is really horrid. absolutely NOT digging the new designs. it just looks like a shabby job slapped onto my mac.
most obvious, the 3d dock is gone, replaced with a translucent dock, same thing for the drop down menus which is a nice touch, but the dock now looks horrible.
theres slight change in the system preferences...
There are changes too in pages and messages, not really obvious... and who uses messages anyway?

My verdict,
Yosemite came just in time for halloween.


Now on to whatever that's in my life!!
I'm currently feeling quite....ballistic. parents.



Just last weekend, we just had an event for LAN gaming, it was a fun time having lots of friends coming down for the event!! i guess im just feeling really tired now for some reason....like really worn out from the week although it just started LOL i shall put the blame on monday blues aye?



Currently, i am still working on my Gundam Unicorn full armour, still in the slow and tedious process of painting and building... handpainting the whole thing darn. So that's one project, the next one i am doing is nerf related! just simply trying to refill all my darts by making a whole lot more, about 300 to be exact... somehow i have very little darts left? gahhh what else do i have on my hand... ah yes i also have Xuan's aeroplane which im just secretly laughing at myself because i am decking it out and it's gonna look real different from the original product xD so that's three projects on hand!! lastly, is my most important project which is a 21st birthday present gift for my close friend! I'm so tempted to upload photos of it, but nahhh shall keep it as a secret until this coming weekend is over! So yeah i am working on 4 projects concurrently...Here are some clues to the present!
I've been spending lots of time on the product, it requires a template, it is something that i have never done before, neither have i ever worked with the raw materials before! which means....its NOT wood, or metal, or plastic. ;) and it requires quite a lot of effort (lol also cuz i'm new to it)
That's all the clues that i am giving!! happy guessing!! i will have a post on it when has been opened up by the recipient! i'm just hoping that i can do up the present properly lmao. i dont know if my workmanship would be good enough, but still trying!
