9am to 11am, Web Programming(WWWP) practical lesson, boring lesson at the start of the day, teaches all those simple webpage stuffs, code up 5 pages in notepad. Some uses dreamweaver and some uses notepad. Basic HTML knowledge, later on we will learn Javascript and XML, and thats what I am waiting for.

11am to 1pm, Design For User Interactive(DEUI) practical lesson, also another boring lesson, teaches all those newbie flash stuffs, and it is basically crap. Should teach Macromedia Director 8.5 instead. Lunch break in just 10 mins time, followed by a lecture and another practical then home sweet home at 5pm.

Wooo, finally can animate something which looks abit realistic after today’s CANI pratical, 6 more weeks to first CANI individual assignment deadine.

1st time played Warcraft III over BattleNet since I bought the orginal box. Played with Reaper, Faze, Maxima, Phuse, Tidal, Firezai…etc. Played 3 rounds, 6v6, 6v6 and 5v5, all 3 rounds we won, pro aren’t we? As what Reaper said, we played weeks before them, so technically we cheated. LOL.

School at 9am tomorrow boring……..

Hmm learn the most important part of computer animation according to my lecturer which is called “The Function Curve”, if you cannot understand that part, you will fail this module.

Tomorrow will be using 3ds max to animate stuffs during our CANI pratical lesson. “Open You” computer again got problem, after talking to her 4 hours over phone, telling her how to solve it. Another problem arises. Sighzzz

Went to Ikea in the afternoon for lunch with my family, because my uncle wants to shop for furnitures there for his new house, saw 1 CD rack that can hold 880 CDs, took down the measurements and came back home and measure to see whether it fits, but who knows? It fits nicely, will be getting that next week, cost about $198, my mom also bought a movable coffee table to replace the old and bulky one.

Went to Old Kallang Airport the market for my dinner, because Yummy King said that the wan ton mee there is very nice, queued for 30 minutes, tried it, and it doesn’t taste that special. I still prefer the one at Lavender Food Center.

My good budddy, paranoia has his work ripped again, this time that fellow ripped the whole of his website, but within minutes after paranoia knew, the site is taken down, think is the job of some seconday 1 kid. RIPPERS SUX

Went to eat the seafood buffet lunch, ok the buffet sucks. Thats all I can say and have to say. Later on we went to Orchard and we spilt. 3 of my friends and I went to watch Monority Report at Plaza Singapura, and the remaining of them went to East Coast Park, don’t know for what.

4 time slots for the show, 3 sold out left 1 slot at 6.15pm but 3rd row from the front, althought is very front, but is not too bad, no need to strain my neck to watch the movie. Movies last 2 hours and 30 minutes. The show is very good and it really deserved 4 stars.

Will be watching The Eye with my poly classmates on Wednesday as we end early on that day.

The guys over at HTGK and paGn has been very good, they had mirrored 2 videos of the Warcraft III launch that have taken place on 2nd July midnight at Funan. The first part(744.80 MB) last 56 minutes and the second part(323.94 MB) last 20 mins. Head over to paGn downloads page to grab the files.

In other news, I had taken a couple of pictures of my Warcraft III collection, they can be viewed here. I will be adding in pictures of the birthday party soon.

School ended at 1pm for me, went to Bugis Junction to eat teppanyaki with my poly classmates, later on I went to Funan and bought the Microsoft SideWinder Game Pad for $39.90 just to play FIFA World Cup 2002. LOL

Went out again at 6.30pm to buy presents for my 3 friends who will be celebrating their birthday tomorrow, bought a cap, wallet and a pouch for them at Hereen. Hmmm, steamboat buffet at Hotel Royal, that will be the place they will be treating us. Been there once and from my point of view, the steamboat is not really that good, but again that is don’t know how many years back.

Actually, we do not need to go out personally to buy the presents, but thanks to my the other group of friends who bought the presents and never include us inside, thus 7 of us need to buy our own presents for the 3 birthday ‘boys’. This type of friends, cannot make it.

Haha, on another note, fishie’s computer has spoiled, one of the kernel files for windows is missing, thus, she cannot start up windows. LOL

Happy 4th July to all Americans, its Independence Day for them.

Just came home from school, had a very “breakful” day today, altogether 4h30mins of break. Last year, when I took OOPG(Object Oriented Programming), we used codes to design user GUI, but now lecturer taught us a much faster way, all you need is just to click, same as how you design a webpage on Frontpage or Dreamweaver. Need to create a “simple” animation using Jbuilder and pass up tomorrow. Looks tough, but I try to, if I have the time, I will try out tomorrow CANI practical work.

In gaming news, US army has release a free game to the public, the game is created by the United States Army, it is a multiplayer game has realistic game play and military detail. Click here to proceed to HTGK download section.

School ended at 11.30am for me today, reached home at about 12.30pm, was very tired because I slept at 2am and wake up at 8am. Haha.

Did some body modelling on my first Computer Animation (CANI) practical, and I can say it looks good except it looks more cartoon than human, anyway the lecturer said that if it is too realistic and it doesn’t animate as realistic as a human, you failed. If it is cartoon, its mean to be funny so your imagination is your only limitation, much easier to animate.

If I have the time later and my mom remembered to bring back the digital camera, I will take some pictures of the contents in the Warcraft 3 goodies bags and the Warcaft 3 figurines.

Will be learning Dreamweaver, UltraDev and Flash 5 in tomorrow practical lessons, I started learning Flash when the version was only 3, so confirm not problem in it. Flash is easy, is only your creativity that stops you. Anyway after seeing http://www.pixelranger.com, you probably be demoralise.
