Haha, It's good that you can spend time on music and head-fi...

Last week, I went to bed around 5am and woke up around 11am (Tuesday to Monday) due to my assignments (Term project) and financial analysis, extra part-time job (magazine distribution) and class

My friends also ask me about the video or computer games, I've ended up playing video/computer games for a few years because I had to work and I like to listen to music more than playing the game

however, I still left PS2 at my home in Thailand and rarely turn it on ....

Impressive 15... jebus same age as my little brother, that's kinda scary/funny.

My problem is I live my life in the red ... keep finding ways to spend large sums of money money (Computers, surf trips overseas, new bodyboard + wetsuit, a car) so I'm forever bailing myself out of that then I stupidly keep buying booze and weed and going out to festivals and/or parties whenever I can :S
I'm at the stage now when I keep thinking, hmm buy this really nice audio equipment (Bloody hell it's tempting) or save for next year when I finish school. I keep finding it harder and harder to splurge money the closer I get to finishing high school.
I've got to pull my finger out and start selling stuff I'm no longer using, hopefully that might see me with some quality equipment for next year and beyond.

 

[stang]

That is why I don't do weed or buy alcohol

Or go to parties. I rarely spend money on my computer anymore, just a new graphics card every once in a while. Right now I am saving for something like an ATI 5850/5870 and something else in the audio world

I have lots of homework to do...but you know, I really can't be bothered

Oh well, it's a bit unfair to compare them.
1, they are at a different level, and 2, My 13pro has been used for about 8 or 9 months already.

But for what I can hear now,
the 13 need a bit more energy to drive compare to the 5.
13 has better sounstage, vocal not as close compare to 5.
Better clarity and detail from 13 as well.
13 is also more neutral and balance in all 3 (high mid low) freq.

It's actually quite obvious...but then I still think the 5 is worthwhile as an entry level cm.

VCE is overrated.

Seriously, don't believe the crap that they say about VCE being the only oppurtunity in life to get somewhere.

I asked my friend who recabled my HF2 and K701 about the cable that he used. Unfortunately, he's not sure about the exact cable (he modified a lot of headphones

) but he answered me that he used some vintage cable and changing soldering materials....

I'm so sorry about this ...

 

[Collagen]

Announcement Again.....

Who is the owner of the headphones adaptor (1/8" to 1/4") gold plated??? Please tell me immediately I will return it to you ASAP....

Thank you very much..... ^ ^

And who told you that?

You better shape up mate, I know what you've been getting in you SAC's.

Going to the same school as Trysaeder, although we are in different year levels, trust me when I say that every single day, we are fed the "VCE is everything" mantra and are constantly reminded of it in our academic arena of a school; and most of this is coming from the students too.

Too keep to the topic: I really wish I had the time to come to this meet, I feel that I could have learnt so much from it and met very nice people along the way. I'll be sure to make time for the next one

Kudos to Yukari for what turned out be a great meet

Its just a pissing contest between schools. If you're willing to put the hard work in, you'd get a high score no matter which school you go to.

And whats with all the tutoring kids do these days? I only had 1 tutor for Chemistry because I hated the subject.

VCE scores are a meaningless number once you're at uni.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you about the VCE scores, but it really is hard to ignore the degree of importance that it holds in getting into the uni course that you want in the first place. Coming from an average school and moving to a school of high achievers, I think that it's a valid point to make.

 

[MomijiTMO]

OP 2 QLD guy here. It got me into uni and now it's forgotten. Sooo not worth it to me

.

Super late edit: I went to a crappy school too. You can get the result you want.
