Bye Bye Facebook

Deactivated my facebook account and opted to not receive emails anymore.

Did it after watching Surrogates today. And also figured I want to spend more time to myself doing what I want, like watching DVDs and playing more video games. Clicking buttons on the internet on a social network just doesn't give me the satisfaction I was looking for nor fulfil my desires of believing in a more fulfilling life.

Like I've said before, I live in the movies. :D

So Good bye facebook. Forever I hope.

In-principle

I have gotten my prospective investors to agree to lending my a large sum of money just to produce one single copy of my DVD.

Now the pressure is to make sure it looks good.

A grand total of about $42k. $30 that I need to return over 2 years with a 7% interest. which is not so bad for me. I think.

Tired. Hope it all works out well. Really tired. Can't say I'm ecstatic. But it is a relief. Now I have to really focus on getting the product out. And on top of that there's still the marketting that has to be planned. The risk is great coz this is just a pilot project only. Baah... hard to say.

Got to push for quality now. hence getting a semi pro to help me... just grad fellow, same as me. from RMIT. paying him a hefty amount a day. he gets just sliiightly less than what i was getting in aussie. haha... but that's besides the point. coz i'm paying him lower than what i'd be paying real professionals. so its still reasonable.

lets see how i can tie in my product with Varun's plans also. I need a marketting expert to really help me take over selling our line of products so that I can just oversee that dept rather than get my hands dirty in it at the sacrifice of the creative side and if i were to call dips on both sides equally i'd be taking a big chunk out of my personal life... balance. baah..

still, one major hurdle crossed. relieved.

I am in USA

Hey guys,

wonder if you guys are still keen to write into this blog, haha, well now its my turn to be away for abit, in Tsang's and mine favourite English speaking ang moh country, haha.

well, so far have been here for like 9 days, in silicon valley, CA. Been quite good fun here so far, tagged along with my uncle from India who was here visiting too to places like Reno and Lake Tahoe, both a nice places to see.

Once they had left, started driving here too, haha, I really love the 101 (the main freeway from San Fran to LA, it cuts through the valley too). So great driving at 130km/h, I guess its just something I like. Got used to driving on the right side of teh road already, think for us not too difficult still, as we are not set in our ways. So have been driving around quite abit around the valley, to Gilroy (factory outlet), Santa Cruz ('near by' beach) and even dropped my aunt off at the airport and returned home on my own (she's also going to NC). So its really cool. :)

I guess I will just make the occassional post here about wats going on in my life. Also I have started a long-distance relationship with this singaporean punjabi girl who is studying in Adelaide, can say we met through facebook. Guess will wait till I meet her in Jan to 'confirm' our relationship, but she seems like a nice person so I optimistic it will work out. Guess see how it goes. Guess dont want to publically announce it yet, so just keep it among us ya.

banned waterbottles.

Didn't NSW plastic water bottles recently?

Is that the plastic bottled water industry's new marketting ploy? to make us believe that their water bottles are conscious?

And what morals do a water bottle abide to anyway? Is the water in them under their jurisdiction? So like if the water in the water bottle grows fungi and algae and what not, is that the water's fault or the water bottle's? And like are they responsible for non spills, like when their owner is trying to drink from the bottle in a bumpy vehicle or something, who's moral obligation is it that the water should not spill?

Opium-eating wallabies

Opium-eating wallabies get high, make crop circles - Latest News - MSN Singapore News - News:

"Opium-eating wallabies get high, make crop circles

Wallabies are getting 'as high as a kite' on opium in Australian poppy fields and flattening crops as they hop round in circles, according to a report.

The marsupials, which look like small kangaroos, have been getting into medical opium crops in the southern island state of Tasmania and chewing on the plant's intoxicating heads, state officials said.

'We have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles,' state attorney-general Lara Giddings told a parliamentary estimates hearing.

'Then they crash. We see crop circles in the poppy industry from wallabies that are high,' local media reported Ms Giddings as saying.

Tasmania is the world's largest producer of legally-grown opium for the pharmaceutical market, with about 500 farms supplying approximately 50 percent of the raw material for morphine and other opiate drugs.

Livestock and other animals, such as deer and sheep, which eat the plants had also been seen acting 'weird,' industry spokesman Rick Rockliff said.
'There have been many stories about sheep that have eaten some of the poppies after harvesting and they all walk around in circles,' he said."
