The clock never stop ticking,
But we do, occasionally.
The journey has started,
On the pursued of dreams.
I'm with nothing but a paper,
Which have numbers and time on it.
Brought to this strange place,
of which I have no memories off.
Perhaps, time has flies too fast.
That the past has failed to register in my memories.
All I have,
Is the path that I am supposed to take.
I was told that it would lead me to my destination.
The pointer was a stranger,
but what options I have,
except of having faith in him.
Time past,
light dim,
hope flee.
The prophesied chance appeared,
Yet my heart is waving.
Wondering,
What if,
this isn't the one I'm waiting for.
What if,
the pointer misguide me.
What if...
Shaking off my fear,
taking my chances,
I ride onto the infamous wind.
Alone I sit,
With the battle of curiosity and pride rage.
In the end,
Pride take hold,
and it muted the other party.
I taken a backward direction,
A unique position it was.
The Images proceeds,
I slowly but surely familiarized the picture.
Of which, with love and hatred,
Both unforgettable.
But Images doesn't stay,
Only distance acknowledged understanding.
The instant it appeared is not treasured.
....
I will leave it at this state,...

Pool
Played pool with my friends yesterday. Everyone seems to know how to play and are able to play well, even my friends from Johor know how to play well. We are roughly around the same age,I wonder how can our exposure differ so much.
Flashback for pool
"I only contacted pool once in my life, before this. If I recall correctly, the pool players in the first game I played consisted me, Wowyay and Joseph. It was during our Akido trip. It turn out be totally nightmare because none of us have any idea how to play properly,we don't even have any clue how to grip the poles properly, and yet we try and try. For half an hour we struggle to goal - trying to get a ball into the holes. We gotten one in the end, the white ball. There is no fun at all, we end up feeling very boring and decided to not touch the game for good."
I don't know where I get the picture but I always have a bad feelings about pools (Is this is influence of TV?). I always thought it's a game for pub, and pub is evil, stay away for good.
Funny thoughts though, after playing it, feels like it's just a another game that can be learn and mastered. The culture of game is same with all other sports, just that the environment it's portrayed in is usually different - Pub.
Side Note :
Oh, we didn't play in pub, we played in some hall/college until 3am. It's FOC

Eden, additional information
* Some information might already be given via the comments on the picture in the Picasa web albums
Here's a piece of map of Australia, it shows where Eden is. You could look for Canberra and Melbourne in it as well.
From the map it's roughly 200km, but it take at least a 4 hours drive from Canberra. To my surprise, there is no widely developed highway in Australia (Maybe because it is such a big country). This means that the bus we rode drove though two ways one lane round through the forest and while on a zig zag path. This would normally enable us to see the forest, but it simply isn't possible because we are travelling at night.
We departed from ANU about 5pm, stopped in Cooma for dinner before continue our journey. The trip consisted about 130+ people I believe. We have three big and one small bus. Oh, their bus is nice, at least better than I once experience in M'sia (we got on what they called a VIP seats, luxury ride, but it was crap). But I might just have been cheated on that.
Cooma was a small town, it's main form of income is tourism, skidding I believe. You could notice there is a lot of motel and hotel on the way, along with skidding shops. There is a Snowy Mountain nearby. If you want a skip trip from ANU, here is it.
We then continue to Eden, arrived at something about 10pm. Distributed to our cabin and sleep. Our accommodation for these 2 night is Garden of Eden Caravan Park. Too bad we aren't sleeping in Caravans, instead we get to sleep at the cabin provided.
The Small cabin which we slept in. I found that the Aussies (local) are quite funny. I shared my cabin with two of them. One of them was taking photoes of the cabin. He claimed that he want to keep memory and prove of it so that one day he could tell his grandchildren that he once live in these hobbits house.
Sleeping quarters during the trip to Eden, triple deck. With the limited space, it's hard for me to sleep well, I couldn't imaging what the situation the two Aussies would be facing in these spaces.
I brought nothing (linen, sleeping bad, pillows, blanket) there and they offered nothing. It write that they might offered those, and I happen to decided to test my luck. Never have I heard that a hotel/motel that doesn't provide these. It then turns out they only offered that in another park which is for group A.
Slept without blanket for two days (had to improvise with tower). As it is further south, it's getting very cold, I was awaked several times during the first night because of the cold. But it's very relaxing as our park is near the beaches, you could hear the sound of the wave hitting the beaches while you are on your bed.

Back, with more problems....
It has been a while, since I have left this blog behind me...
Well, I ain't here to say that things will change, nor I am going to state that things will not change. I haven't make up my mind yet, regarding posting or so...
Having holiday now means that I have plenty of time to spent on whatever I want. And, so far I spent a great deal of time gaming. I played fallout3, world in conflicts so far in the holiday, currently a bit sick of gaming though. But, nothing much to do, it's very hard to bring myself to study, just can't find the mood.
I managed to go through my physics a little. But not much, just read through. Doesn't seems to have problem as long as I don't jump over. Found out that if I go through words by words, I have no problem. This does require extra attention as I always tend to skim through without bothering with minor details, and my attention span is considerably short. Slowly getting the hang of it now.
Spend the half of yesterday (1/10) trying to validate the win7. I could do it 1st time, but somehow fail during my second trial. I just don't understand why it did not work. Could it be that the validation program only work one time?
I am not ready to give out using it yet, it is quite a wonderful windows. Will continue to try ....
You might be asking why I reformat in the 1st place, when win7 is running perfectly. My answer is that eventhough it is running well, I allocated too little space for it (only 15gb), and the windows itself ate up 13gb. This prohibited a few operations I want to run.
When I tried expanding one of the drives using an external program. But not only I failed, but also could not recover the 20gb I used to extend. Oh, it gets better. I then try use reformat the whole drive (only drive C) to extend the drive as well as recover the 20gb. Failed again, both in recovering and extending......
And now I set myself a timebomb, win7 beta only last for 30 days.
By 30 days, I either solve it, reformat, or just leave it.
Well, at least I solved the vista issue, it's time bomb just being diffuse...
Posting some picture up 2morrow, those which I had taken during the trip to Eden....
