jiminny-jollickers! the pic speaks for iteself!

I haven't made much progress project-wise in the last 3 days; I've been too rained-in/sick/exhausted/cold to do anything but for the next 10 days, the word is progress. Web design project and report due in 4 days...3DMP due in 7 days...I can succeed--I believe that I still retain the willpower to refuse to succumb to failure. I lost it for a while but it's slowly coming back to me.

this is the phone--this is the rant: f#cking sony! they always always come out with some proprietary file/memory/storage format which eventually proves:
1. useless and 2. redundant in a few short years. For example 'Memory stick'--that's just their f#cked up way of forcing you to buy other overpriced sony bullsh!t to use with your heavily overpriced sony memory shitstick. What's worse is sony's blatant admittance that their first-party sh!t is overpriced--buying a brand new sony ericsson phone, imagine my shock when in the box was not a sony memory stick, but a sandisk memory stick. Sony's too cheap to even fork out on their own products. Further evidence of sony's cheapness (by that I mean extreme expensiveness) and admittance of redundance and stupidity: their latest camera phones sport yet another memory format-M2. wtf? Didn't betamax, minidisc, memory stick and 'memory-stick-pro-duo-turbo-mad-gear-wtf-title' hammer the message home? Apparently so, cause these new phones also support SD cards. HA!

Ok, I'll give sony props for making sweet cellys.

⇒ something's amiss...

something's really really wrong with me--I simply can't focus on anything--exercise, uni, work, socializing--anything. And my right-eye twitch is driving me nuts!

⇒ Nadal's the man!

Nadal trounced Federer in the 2007 French Open final 6-3 4-6 6-3 6-4. This is his 3rd successive win and totals 21-0 at Roland Garros! Holy sh!t! I had a feeling that Federer's thrashing last month in Hamburg masters was purely a strategic loss to build up false confidence in Federer. Sacrificing an 81-win streak to take a 3rd French Open crown--why not? It's not like the 81 wins are in danger of being broken anytime soon by anyone but Nadal...

Now about Roger's loss: Sure I like Federer, but how exciting would tennis be without a great rivalry? Besides, Roger's got Wimbledon to exact revenge bagel-style!

Head-to-head Federer now trails 8-4. wtf?!?
Meanwhile, here's the Battle of the Surfaces match highlights
