Life As Seen Through A Lens

The New Beginning of an End

2007-12-12T00:20:00.000+08:00

I'll be launching on another blog specially with my girlfriend, Phoebe.
Guess it's more interesting sharing a blog together.

HER WORLD . HIS WORLD . THEIR BLOG
www.herworldhisworld.blogspot.com

Kinky eh?

This blog wont be dead, but consider it as temporary on hold.
More projects to come later. I'll be back - or around.
CIAO!

WTF?

2007-12-06T00:50:00.000+08:00

WTF!!! I'm back - again - period.

Slightly cheerful, content, emo, sad, high, confused, baffled, stressed out, crazy, funny, moody, expressful (you named it) recently. But hey that's life... with its ups and downs.

Screw it-LAH! Anyways some updates on this blog - as promised. :)

Just came back from watching the Disney's Enchanted in Cineleisure with dear xL. More like a muscial fantasy-come-romantic movie which the story line's predictable. Some of the characters were funny and cute, especially Pip the chipmunk, Prince Edward and not forgetting the princess herself.

Worth watching I'd say, bottom line is.... reality > fantasy in life. Alvin & The Chipmunks is next, another childhood cartoon of mine. See who wanna sponsor me to watch to show. :P

Captain Sao Pei Said, "Welcome To Langkawi"

2007-07-31T02:06:00.000+08:00

Got it bald for the 1st time in my life. Waiting for the gang to arrive in Pudu Bus Station as we are heading to Langkawi for to hit the beach!

We made it to the top via cable cars (Langkawi Hills?) - gang consisting of Yin Wei's friends & my buddies (Skyline-cum-Botak clan). The view was breath taking and lots of photographing & smoking were involved. No lungs were harmed here.

Some of the places we went to or passed by - via island hopping or exploring with a trusty manual Toyota Unser. One word of advice from a man who did scammed us, "Dont ever get packages offered by agents located nearby the jetty when you arrived." Bunch of money suckers. Sheeshh.. now to the beach!

Life in Langkawi... was pretty relaxed despite spending quite a huge amount of money. The next beach to hit? Thailand's with her?

Saya Sudah Balik...

2007-07-31T01:54:00.000+08:00

At last, this lazy blog-focker is back - with a vengeance.

Quite a lot has been happening to my life lately, many different things be it positive or negative. But I can't really be bothered to blog it, as no one is reading it. Lol!

Thanks to my dearest Feebz and my Skyline buddies (Vince Joe - bound for UK again, SS - his blog is dead finally and the rest) for putting colors back into my blogging life and now I'm ready to blog 'n roll!

More more pictures to come, puhless! :)

Eason Chan "Get A Life" Concert

2006-10-05T23:12:00.000+08:00

Well, It's been a while since I last touched this site. But thanks to my buds who got their asses back into the blogging world, I was thinking that I should join them as well... and pawn their asses - real bad. Yes, the legendary Tanglung Hijau has to move on. A lot has happened recently within these few months as I've been experiencing millions of stuff that $ cant buy, particularly in work and life. This should teach me to treasure things; mainly life, family and friends as much as possible.

August was a very good month. As it was the first time I've ever been to a LIVE concert to watch one of Hong Kong's most popular singer, Eason Chan. His concert, Eason "Get A Life" was held in Bukit Jalil National Stadium on the 28th. Thanks to Yin Wei and her friends from the press, Eddie and I managed to tag along and got free tix (RM122 seatings), which was far away from the stage but thank Lord Fragster, for the giant screen projector.

There's only one word to describe the night - AWESOME. The stage step ups, costumes and mood was kinda dark (more like Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas theme). As for the King of Cantopop himself... Eason was one hell of a charismatic entertainer. That chap belted out almost all his famous Canto hits within 3 hours - encores included and he even joked with the crowd.

The downturn was a minority of cool-attitude crowd (mainly from the front) whom didnt sing along and cheer like the rest. Where as the back row people were darn happening + noisy, 3 of us were singing and screaming at the top of our lungs and doing the Hard Gay "Hoooo", non-stop! Another sad thing was I didnt bring my fugging FZ7 camera!! Was told that cameras are being forbidden, but in the end people were taking shots like nobody's business. Screw the rules... wasted a good time to practise indoor shots and make use of the 12x optical zoom. But afraid not, I've photos to share, ~~noobs~~... once thanks again to Yin Wei's whats-her-name friend. :)

I will be back for more updates and happenings, people.
Stay tuned for more.
Ciao peeps!

Who Wants To Be A Superhero?

2006-08-24T01:04:00.000+08:00

NBTD (nothing better to do) at the moment, and I haven't been taking much photos with the FZ7 camera as well as update on this blog for a long time, ever since I've started working hard... to hit the RM 1 gazzilion mark. Well, I'm almost there anyway, just short of a few bucks.

So, this post my fellow people, is a NBTD-cum-personality-test dedicated for you NBTD-ers out there. Do it if you bother to do so, else ignore it and eventually this message will be terminated in exactly 59 seconds after you have read it.

The results I got... so darn accurate, except that I am not much of a hot-headed person. Who's Green Lantern anyway? A superhero who only comes out during the Chinese Mooncake Festival and play lanterns with little kids? Fuahh... I'm lovin' it ala McD style.

Click here to take the Superhero Personality Test

I'm officially declared a superhero for REAL. Hail me pee-ple for I am your friendly neighbourhood... the evergreen.... "Hijau Tang Lung". :P

p/s: Waited for 59 secs already? Got self destruct anot? Keep on waiting, fools... ^ ^

Working Life is . . . =_="

2006-07-21T22:27:00.000+08:00

Started work as a management trainee in this event management company, MIFF a week ago.

It‘s already Day 5 now, and I wonder how long I can last...

Day 1 >

Day 2 >

Day 3 >

Day 4 >

Day 5 >

Doing paper-based work (which is my daily task) in such a boring environment sucks... big time! Well if it includes preparing incoming / outgoing invoices, arranging stacks of super messy files (thousands of them!! No, a million gazillion!! Ok I exaggerated too much) in proper alphabetical order, going through all the application forms within those files to check if there are any mistakes thus correcting it, doing redundant data entries, etc etc yada yada bla bla. (p/s: I could go all day if I want to...)

What more if you are given a slow-shitty computer with a 15" ‘going-to-kaput’ monitor, which takes ages to load a system or a program.

Not to mention the PC’s favorite trick is that it hangs often and blinks alot as well, thus delaying my workloads. @#$$%*... Rotten scumbag!

Damn depressive... I need a Dr Phil... Beh tahan but I will still live to die another day. Fight on!

I Zizou You!

2006-07-14T21:52:00.000+08:00

I believe most of us here knew about the confrontation incident during the World Cup Final match between previous winners, France and Italy. France captain Zinedine “Zizou” Zidane was sent off for head-butting on Marco Materazzi’s chest.

Apparently, he did it because Materazzi threw insults and made racist remarks concerning Zizou and his family members. As a result, Italy then went on to win the game (and the World Cup) through penalties. Forza Italia! :P

The moment that shocked the entire football world...

Since then, it went on to dominate all sports headlines around the world. We've also seen whoopings of fan bashing and media bashing (especially the French) on Zizou. Next, there were jokes and funny pictures of the headbutt thingy, appears almost everywhere on the internet. I LOL'ed hard at the pictures below, from ggzidane.com. Bwahaha!

There's even a flash game known as "Zidane Head Butt Game",which was made based on that incident as well. Sheesh... those people sure have nothing better else to do. =_="

Indeed, it was a shocking-cum-silly act by the man himself, not a good way for a legend to bow out of his international career like that. However, I take my hat off to one of the greatest footballer of all time for his football abilities and magical skills (no, not the head butting skill) to the game.

So, stand up and hail the one and only, Monsieur Zizou...

Thai Sabye Sabye Restaurant

2006-07-12T15:09:00.000+08:00

Went to this Thai restaurant which is inside the Mines Shopping Centre (15 minutes drive from KL city centre) for a dinner with my family. Quite a nice place to eat out with your friends and family, what more if you are into spicy food. I took some shots of what we ordered, some photos ain't that clear, due to the dim lightning and I did not have the flash on as well. So, bear with it. Now let's get on with the food. =)

Sawadee-kap-kap-kap... Behold, the Thai Sabye Sabye Restaurant.

Sweet & sour Thai chilli sauce. Nothing's good without it.

The starter's a dish of sweet dry mangoes, which is popular in Thai.

Seafood Tom Yam soup... A must-have even though it is kind of spicy!

Chicken skins. Taste funny as the food's meant to be that cold.

Squids! Another must-have. Juicy and spicy, delicious!

A veg dish, not even spicy at all. Taste more like Chinese-cooked style.

S.S.B = Sizzling Spicy Beef. Lol, I made that up. The meat's very tender and juicy. Thumbs up for this! Bagus.

Thai-style Omelette. Very plain Jane, nothing special as it has too much of onions but the taste was okay.

Chicken meat wrapped with pandan leaves. Meat's juicy, smells tasty but once you have a bite on it, feels ordinary. And it's not spicy at all.

The remains of the Pandan flavoured chicken. Not edible. Not spicy too. :P

Always save the best for the last! Hot Plate Toufu accompanied by tauges as well. Not spicy but it was simply tasty.

What a great feast. Not to mention that the price's pretty affordable as well.

They even gave us desserts - F.O.C, with varieties to choose from. Mostly traditional Thai delicacies (more like Malaysian I think). So I took this..

FIFA World Cup 2006 Express

2006-06-30T22:16:00.000+08:00

It has been a long few days break since we last saw the match in World Cup Round 16 between "Young Guns" Spain and "Old Coqs" France. Finally, the football fever is back haunting all football freaks that are willing to stay up late just to catch all the remaning matches. Bring it on, FIFA!

Just to update you guys out there, it is now the quarter-finals time at Germany 2006 and the action commences with numbers of super-duper-hyper-wateva bona fide World Cup classics. Take a look at the qualifiers chart below and you shall know why. Yeahhh baby!

There are six former world champions in the WC quarter-final lineup.... Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Germany and Italy. The other two teams making up the elite eight are Ukraine, making their first appearance in the competition, and Portugal, whose previous best achievement was reaching the semi-finals in 1966.

Let's take a short trip down the memory lane on what these teams went through in the WC Round 16. Come come, ~~let uncle bring you go see goldfish~~. Shall we, football-holics? :D
___________________________________________________________

Germany 2 - Sweden 0
Two early goals by striker Lukas Podolski secured a comfortable 2-0 win against Sweden. The hosts produced a magnificent display of attacking football to brush past a disappointing Sweden team.

Game Highlights: Lucic's 2nd yellow card & a Larsson's penalty miss. :(

Argentina 2 - Mexico 1 (after extra time)
Argentina needed extra time and a wonder strike from Maxi Rodriguez to give them a 2-1 victory over Mexico. Early goals scored by Hernan Crespo and Rafael Marquez.

Game Highlights: A world-class "gila babi" strike from Rodriguez, scoring the winner & a determinated Mexico side. :)

England 1 - Ecuador 0
Captain David Beckham's second-half free-kick proved enough for England to get past the Ecuadors, who seemed to lack the belief to seriously threaten the opposition goal.

Game Highlights: Boring 2nd half, a fit Rooney in the starting lineup & a 'Bend-it-like-Beckham' freekick. :)

Portugal 1 - Holland 0
Portugal progressed to the quarter-finals after eliminating Holland through a first-half goal from Maniche. After Portugal's Costinha was dismissed on the stroke of half-time, Boulahrouz followed after 63 minutes, Deco after 78, and Giovanni van Bronckhorst five minutes into injury time.

Game Highlights: Match was more like WW4, Crappy decisions by 'kayu' referee, 4 red cards and a cry-baby C. Ronaldo subsituted due to injury. :(

Italy 1 - Australia 0
An injury-time penalty from substitute Francesco Totti took ten-man Italy past Australia into the quarter-finals. Australia produced one of their best performances . But Italy stand firm when down to ten men for the majority of the second half.

Game Highlights: Best Aussie performance so far, great saves by Schwarzer, play-acting by Grosso in the penalty box & a thumb-sucking Totti. :)

Switzerland 0 - Ukraine 0 (after extra time; Penalty 0 - 3)
Ukraine won through to the quarter-finals against Italy after beating Switzerland on penalties after a goalless draw. Switzerland had a disastrous shoot-out, missing all three kicks, provided the only real drama of the night.

Game Highlights: Safe-playing by both teams, boring game & a Swiss miss on penalties despite having PERFECT 100% defensive record in conceding ZERO goals. Woot! :(

Brazil 3 - Ghana 0
Brazil marksman, "Fatboy" Ronaldo became the the all-time top scorer in World Cup history as he struck the first goal in Brazil's 3-0 victory over Ghana. Ghana can be well satisfied with their performance at their first ever World Cup.

Game Highlights: Solid performance, 4 wins and counting for the world champions in WC2006 & the "Fatboy" breaking the goal scoring record :)

Spain 1 - France 3
Late goals from Patrick Vieira and Zinedine Zidane booked France a quarter-final tie with Brazil as they came from behind to beat Spain. France produced a fine all-round performance and Spain pack their bags for home having once again flattered to deceive in a major tournament.

Game Highlights: A french suprise, Spain out despite showing much more promise (in my opinion), exciting game & old man Zidane on fire! :)
___________________________________________________________

Okay, that's all for this. The qualifiers round are going to start soon, with host Germany against the sizzling hot Argentina on TV soon!! It is gonna be one hell of an exciting week for us football freaks. Till then, ciao! OLE OLE OLE OLE! :)

My "Best" World Cup Moment

2006-06-27T22:19:00.000+08:00

Imaging this....

You are getting ready for a live World Cup match on TV at home.

You gather around with your family members, debating on the better team to win, and making match predictions on the outcome. Check!

You have prepared tons of junky snacks and drinks that it could almost turn into a feast. Check!

You have picked your best spot (or couch) to watch the game, already feeling the heat for your favourite team to win. Check!

As there was a match preview going on and the game's about to begin, suddenly the lights went out and everything was dark black. Blackout!

Upon hearing weird sizzling sound, you smell something is burning and then you noticed a bright glowing light outside. Uh-oh!

You rushed out of the house to find out that the cables connected to your electric meter is burning… red-hot. OMGWTFFIRE!

What would you do then? O_o"!

As for me, we had a very old fire extinguisher kept somewhere (a miracle that it’s still working though) and used it to take out the fire. Luckily, the fire didnt caught up on anything and things were okay. Called up TNB and they assured us that they will dispatch a team in about 15 mins later. At last, there is hope on catching a glimspe of the match. Hooray!

But we ended up waited for freaking long 40 mins before they finally arrive. Guess they were too busy watching the game as well. And they took almost an hour and half to replace the wires and some parts. Arghh.... mati! @_@"

There goes my World Cup matches that "tragic" night. So guys, please do not ~~drink and drive~~ forget to check your surroundings if your "spidey" sense tells you something is wrong.

I've Got WCF (World Cup Fever)!

2006-06-10T18:04:00.000+08:00

Yes... I've got infected with the WCF. Gotta go AWOL as it'll take me weeks to recover! I'll be rooting for Brazil, Holland and of course... England!

Meanwhile, stay tuned or update yourself via WC06 sites such as FIFAworldcup.com, ESPNsoccernet or get yourself glued to the TV set as there will be plenty of live matches coming thru' tonight - LIVE!

FF VII: Advent Children (The Leakage)

2005-09-13T00:38:00.000+08:00

To all of you Final Fantasy gaming freaks out there, the moment has finally arrived. The Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, the FF7:AC movie has been leaked! Most sites verified that it is a full DVD quality release.

The encoding is XviD format, thus it is a DVD-rip release. The entire film is in Japanese and the provided subtitles are also in Japanese. Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is scheduled to release on September 14th 2005 in Japan.

However, there is rumors that the English sub are already available on a torrent hidden somewhere around. I'm still searching for it and hopefully it turns out to be real. Let me know if any of you guys found one!

I can’t wait to see more of Cloud, Barrett, Aerith, Tifa, Sephiroth and the rest of the Final Fantasy 7 characters in ‘real’ action. It's going to be a great day for FF devotees, all hail Tetsuya Nomura & Square-Enix!

Need A Laugh? That Reminds Me Of A Joke II

2005-09-12T21:51:00.000+08:00

(Previously: Part 1)

http://stevenscorner.blogspot.com/2005/09/need-laugh-that-reminds-me-of-joke.html

Wedding Dinner

Obstacle: You are stuck at a table filled with distant relatives and obscure family friends who are on a totally different wavelength.

Goal: Covering your “I tried to be friendly” responsibilities without actually encouraging them to get to know you better.

Joke: Marriage is a union. It is a union of hearts, a union of minds, and a union of dreams. The problem comes when it’s time to pay for all these union fees.

Adult’s Birthday Party

Obstacle: Someone you love is a year older and isn’t happy about it.

Goal: Whether he/she is turning 20 or 100, celebrate the occasion with some good-natured teasing. Deep down, while you never hear anybody admit it, we all love jokes about getting older. After all, getting older is the objective.

Joke: A man brags to a friends about his new hearing aid. “It’s the most expensive one I’ve ever had – it cost me $3500!” His friend asked, “What kind is it?” The braggart says, “It’s half past four.” His friend was speechless, “…”

Family Reunion

Obstacle: Good news – that patent and manufacturing deal for the improved mousetrap family finally came through, making you the family success story. Unfortunately, your second cousin, the one who actually invented the improved mousetrap, is unamused.

Goal: A self-deprecating joke will show everyone that success hasn’t gone to your head.

Joke: The other day, a man went to work with both ears bandaged. His boss asked what happened, and the man told his boss: “I was ironing a shirt when the phone rang and I accidentally answered the iron instead of the phone!” “Well, that explains one ear,” said his confused boss. “But what about the other?” “The person called back!”

Need A Laugh? That Reminds Me Of A Joke...

2005-09-10T18:12:00.000+08:00

Humour… it’s partly in your mind, partly in your body. But thank God, we humans sure find lots to laugh about (Even hyenas do!). I myself and my friends laugh at any jokes, provided it’s funny as hell and tickles our stomach like mad.

We are guaranteed to laugh at the misfortunes of other people and stuff too. Nasty? Sure we are but it’s a common thing. Well if you look closely at most jokes, you will see that someone is being laughed at. After all, you can’t stay mad at someone who makes you laugh, right? Take Stephen Chow or our own local Senario clowns for example. :P

I found this article written by Edmund Tan when I was reading the June edition of the Readers Digest. This article proved to be quite funny but true. Plus, it is a great stuff for those who need a laugh and you might be able to learn a line or two on telling a funny tale just to impress your friends or family. Here is what the author mentioned…

“We often use humour to lighten the mood at a gathering and help ease people into having a good time. But humans are complicated creatures, and a simple joke is never that simple.”

“Humorous anecdotes can be a means to impress, distract, prove a point, declare an opinion or disarm people. But beware – a funny tale can also backfire and either send the wrong message or reveal more than you intend to about yourself.”

First Date

Obstacle: Does he/she have a sense of humour? If so, is he/she Jerry Seinfeld-funny or Vladimir Putin-funny?

Goal: You’re doing two things with this joke: A) Trying to show your date that you’re not a humourless dork. B) Fishing around a bit to see if he/she’s a humourless dork. Since you’ve a lot to learn about your date in a brief period of time, ALWAYS stick with one-liner. If he/she laughs, stay for dessert.

Joke: How many coins does it take to play the new Lord of the Rings pinball game? None. It only takes Tolkiens!

Meeting Future In-Laws

Obstacle: Your soon-to-be-fiance/fiancee’s parent, who still haven’t made up their minds about you.

Goal: Get off to a good start with your beloved’s parents. Show them that you’re the sort of person they’d like to have in the family.

Joke: I prefer to go jogging rather than working out in the gym to keep fit. At the gym you have to do some very painful exercises, like the sit-ups, then chin-ups and the most painful one of all – the pay-ups!

Night Out With Clients

Obstacle: You’ve been told to take out a potential new client for an evening of wining and dining. Make a good impression and your career will be looking up; blow it and you might want to start looking for a new job.

Goal: Create the impression that you know the value of a good laugh, without getting too carried away.

Joke: Getting the right location is everything in the business. For example, never open a fire hydrant factory next to a puppy farm.

(end of part 1...)

Moshi Moshi... I'm Back!

2005-09-05T16:50:00.000+08:00

Nothing old, nothing new has been happening since the day I stopped blogging for a short while. As life goes on, I’ve been rotating my daily activities repeatedly for the past whole month during the college semester break… which is really boring most of the time.

Thank God for the existance of the very wonderful music, music shall always be a part of my life, serious! Well looking on the bright side, I realized that I’ve already mastered the art of eating, sleeping, gaming, surfing and lazing around with ease. Haha!

Thus, it would be a waste if I wasn’t listed as an emerging candidate on for the Humantarian of the Year award. Yeah right? So go ahead, worship me. LOL! However, I did encounter + do lots of interesting stuff during the semester break.

Will try blog more about it later though. Aunt Liz and her family is coming back from Australia tonight. So I'll be off later in the evening to do a "Schumacher" to the KLIA airport. Till then... Steven Schumacher signing out! :-)

Petrol Petrol Petrol...

2005-08-04T13:52:00.000+08:00

We have all seen the price of our petrol shooting up to record levels around the country with no relief in sight. You have heard it in our national news, magazines and articles that our national petrol price is constantly increasing. Below are some of the things you can do to get that extra bit of mileage while minimizing your petrol consumption.

1 Use Air Conditioner sparingly
Air conditioners can use about 10 per cent extra fuel when operating and is a super drain on your engine's efficiency, so don't use it unless you really need it....

2 Drive slow and steady
Drive between 45-55 kmph. The faster you drive, the more wind resistance your vehicle will face....

3 Switch accessories before start
Switch off all power consuming accessories before switching on the ignition so as to minimize battery load during the next start.

4 Strut tower/anti-sway bars
Increase control, which allows you to corner without loosing speed - which makes it easier on the brakes and requires less gas to accelerate....

5 Avoid Jack Rabbit Start
Eliminate jack rabbit starts (sudden acceleration from idle). It wastes fuel. Accelerate slowly when starting from dead stop. Don't push pedal down more than 1/4 of the total foot travel....

6 Putting your car gear into neutral or park position
When sitting at a set of traffic lights or in traffic for an extended length of time, put your car into neutral or park....

7 Clutch and Accelerator play
Don’t manipulate the clutch and accelerator to stay stationary because it wastes fuel. Use handbrake instead.

8 Shut your Windows.
Shutting all your car windows while driving will make your car more aerodynamic. This will improve your car's fuel efficiency....

9 Check & Replace Air Filters Regularly.
Air filter prevents dust from Fouling the engine. Dust causes rapid wear of engine components and increases fuel consumption....

10 Switch off accessories before start
Switch off all power consuming accessories before switching on the ignition so as to minimize battery load during the next start....

11 Get your engine tuned up!
Tests on a large number of cars prove that you can save as much as 6% by tuning your car regularly...

Joke...

2005-07-05T08:51:00.000+08:00

A company, feeling it was time for a shake-up, hires a new CEO. This new boss is determined to rid the company of all slackers. On a tour of the facilities, the CEO notices a guy leaning on a wall.

The room is full of workers and he wants to let them know he means business! The CEO walks up to the guy and asks, "And how much money do you make a week?"

A little surprised, the young fellow looks at him and replies, "I make $300.00 a week. Why?" The CEO then hands the guy $1,200 in cash and screams, "Here's four weeks pay, now GET OUT and don't come back!"

Feeling pretty good about his first firing, the CEO looks around the room and asks, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-off did here?" With a sheepish grin, one of the other workers mutters, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's.

Huh.... =.=?

2005-06-22T18:46:00.000+08:00

I had been sitting here, wondering whether to write or not to write.

This is the first time that I am feeling clueless on what shall I put inside my blog, despite having some very un-interesting ideas and boring stories to share. But I guess I rather not post it here, just in case I am afraid that it will bore someone to death. Lol!

I have been blasting some nice R&B Rap songs (try this, Eminem – Mocking Bird) in my room as I am still thinking on what to write, but unfortunately CLUELESS I am. In fact, I really really have no idea on what to brag about today…. =.="

What a boring and tiring day it has been for me in college, despite the loads of assignments stacking high up until the sky. Besides that, due dates for the submissions are coming ASAP and I am still slacking big time here. Arghhhh! ><

Well, I guess that is all for now at the moment. I shall take some time off in spending some time, going through some of my photo collections as well as mp3s. I would like to start uploading pretty pictures daily as much as possible, having to think of the saying, "A Picture Speaks A Thousand Words". Yummy, so it is time for my Nokia 6630's 1.3 megapixels camera to do the work. Haha! :)

Will try to post something interesting when my brain is back working though. Ciao!

Return of the Jedi : I Am Back!

2005-06-08T19:28:00.000+08:00

I am back, after missing in action for many countless 'years'. Feeling sort of lazy having to force myself to blog now (yup, good thing I’m not addicted to blogging anymore!), unlike the old times when I have the urge to post multiple non-stop craps and grandmother stories a day in my blog. But after being told off and 'threatened' by my friends and my buddies to get my lazy hands on the keyboard to start blogging, I have no choice but to listen to their evil Darth Vader-alike commands. LOL! Plus, not forgetting that I am also being inspired by some good bloggers out there which I kept myself updated on almost everyday (well you know who you are... ;P)

Well I guess old habits never die. So it means that I... the Chosen One, Steven Skywalker, and the last surviving Jedi of the Rebel Alliance have returned! Let’s get to my updates. Nothing extraordinary + interesting has been happening for this past month. It is all about the college stuff; assignment, projects, class, studies, FYP, etc. I sense the Dark force in these. Noooooo…..! =.=" However, a couple of nice events did go on the way though, which I had listed down below:-

• Fredrick’s birthday (1^st June)

Well actually, I couldn’t attend the dinner-cum-celebration, but I heard that it was a fun night. Wasted! Anyway, a very Happy Birthday to you, dude!

• Henry Pang’s birthday (5^th June)

“Last minute shopping, some delays in our plan, driving a powerless 1.6cc ‘cow’ to Tampin (Malacca), horrible traffic in the middle of the highway, almost 2 hours travelling, feeling hungry and worn-out” = Sucks! But Henry’s party was nice and we had a great time hanging out there = Priceless! Happy Birthday once again, Henry!

• Dad’s birthday (6^th June)

#1 Dad and the rest of us had a filling breakfast at a dim-sum restaurant in Petaling Street, KL together with Aunt Yen and my cousins, in celebration of Dad’s birthday. After that, we showed them around to shop for “original” stuffs, some nice bags and cute items. Later, we ended up having a coffee-cum-chatting session at Starbucks in Leisure Mall. Nice! =)

#2 Later in the evening, we went out for dinner at “Wong Kok’s Char Chan Teng” (coffee house) together with my master, Dad. The food we ordered was fantastic but when it comes to the bill…. I say, PRICELESS! Why? I ended up paying for it. =.=” Guess I got scammed by my sis, cause’ she said it was going to be a 50/50 for the both of us. I am broke now but it was worth paying though, after all it is my master’s special big day. I love you Dad, the man with the greatest most powerful Light Force, serious!

I guess that is all for now. Damn that Vince Ocean giving us a suprise this afternoon after class @ college. Indeed, he REALLY came back from Newcastle for a short break. So we are gonna spend some time with this buddy of ours, so there's a gathering later. However, I sense that it is going to be tough turning him back into a 'straight' man @ the Light side. After all, he's one of my young apprentices. May the Force be with him. LOL! Till then.... ;)

Prayers 4 A Sweet Friend... =)

2005-05-09T01:50:00.000+08:00

Phew, been very busy lately this week due to my PSF submission and some other updating on a few assignments as well. No good! And the timetable for my one of the subject has been changed (added another subject in the current one). Bad! It’s the DSAP module, for which I’ve to attend classes at 8:45 a.m. every Monday morning from next week onwards? Arghhh! Worse! This is bad, it means no more staying up late on Sunday nights. Another thing, the anti-procrastination campaign hasn’t been doing well either for me. I am still feeling lazy as ever. Wicked! Got to find another solution to kick this bad habit of mine away, or else it is going to kill me in the end. =.=”

I found out that Rachea is probably going for an operation soon, to donate a little piece of her liver to her little cousin who isn’t in a good condition now. Hmm, I will try to enquire more about this from Rachea but I shall not disturb her concentration at the moment, since she is having her examination soon. A tough time for her, I guess. Well sh*t happens most of the time and that’s how our life goes on, thus we have to have the courage to stay strong and determinated in facing any barriers, and be sure to appreciate on what you are & what you've now.

Anyways, that’s a very sweet and brave thing of her to do such a kind thing. Therefore I hope everything turns out to be fine for both of them, especially her little cousin. “Get well soon yeah, lil cuz!”. Last but not least, "My never-ending support, prayers and blessings to you and your lil cuz, Rachea. Way to go girl! No worries, stay strong and take good care of yourself okay? Everything's going to turn out to be fine!"

BTW guys, care to drop a greeting to our dear friend @ her bloggy, HERE! Give her some support and I shall treat you to a fine exclusive lunch after that! (*Dream on*) Lol! That's all for now. Need to catch some sleep....Signing out!

The Truth of Procrastination

2005-05-04T00:37:00.000+08:00

Why are we so conditioned to put all sorts of things off that need to be done? Instead of doing what's required to get the job done, we too often delay action to another day and another time. We keep telling ourselves that we will get to them somewhere down the road, yet we never seem to reach that somewhere.

When it comes to those tasks that we desperately need to complete right now, life changing decisions that beg for immediate attention, why is it always so easy to postpone or delay action to a later date? Why do we rarely if ever get around to doing those tasks we put off and off and off? Sigh!

Face it, get after it and then stay with it until you get the job done has never been and never will be the path of least resistance. This course of action takes courage, commitment and concentration, rare commodities that seem to grow scarcer with each passing day. The habit of doing what needs to be done when it needs doing, that ever elusive do it now attitude, is what separates the real players from the pretenders in life.

No doubt about it, is always far easier to pursue the path of least persistence by grabbing the remote control, snaring another doughnut and sliding back into the easy chair. There, sitting in a stupefied daze for hours on end, we forever put the life we could and should be living on the back burner as we waste time and squander one opportunity after another. Day after day, year after year, the beat goes on and on.

Over time and oftentimes unknowingly, we become increasingly better at concocting all sorts of imaginative ways to keep from doing what needs to be done. As we put off more things, more often, we actually con ourselves into believing that it’s OK to keep procrastinating our lives away. Before we know it, a lifetime of opportunity has gradually slipped through our fingertips, replaced with a lifetime of regrets, sorrow and feelings of unfulfilled emptiness. We wonder what happened and where we went wrong, painfully reflecting back on what might have been. Looking back, we can only see an aimless set of footprints in the sand.

Regardless of whether we realize it or not, we possess an inner drive deep within us that yearns to take advantage of each moment, right here right now. Not sooner or later or whenever we get around to it, but right this very minute. This wellspring of energy, excitement and enthusiasm for living begs to be unleashed; anxiously awaiting the chance to catch the opportunity at hand and catch fire. Amazingly, even after years of dumping cold water on our internal zest to be our best, we cannot extinguish our inexorable desire to accomplish great and memorable feats.

Whenever we quiet and suppress our zeal for living, choosing instead to postpone action to another day or another time, we forever forfeit the opportunity that came, and went with that moment. And when we make a life of making excuses and delaying action, we forever consign ourselves to a life of living without. A life forever robbed of its richness, a life forever stripped of its passion. In short, a life that’s hardly worth living. It doesn’t have to be this way.

The next time opportunity comes calling, why not shun that temptation to put off, postpone or push back action by tapping into your unique need to succeed? When you do, you will quickly discover that the best way to make something happen is to start happening yourself. Right here, right now.

By taking immediate action, without even one moment of hesitation or indecision, you instantly breathe an exhilarating breath of fresh air into your lungs, pumping verve and vitality straight into your heart and soul. You’ll suddenly come alive with a burning, white heat passion for living once again; basking in an astounding, almost beyond words sensation that you probably haven’t felt in ages.

You’ll begin loving the life that you live and living the life that you love. Instead of procrastinating and putting off, you will find yourself embracing new opportunities as your life takes on more meaning, more fulfillment, more of just about everything you've always dreamed about. As you push yourself higher than you ever imagined possible and further than you ever dreamed attainable, you'll wonder what took you so long. Delaying, dilly-dallying and dragging your feet will become distant memories, replaced by a DO IT NOW tenacity that simply cannot be stopped.

The Bottom Line:

When you live a life worth living, you leave footprints that live forever

Damn, I intended to enhance my blog by adding more links and pictures just for the sake of decorating it. But instead, I messed up with the template coding without saving it first on a notepad. Arghhh! Now I've to redo and fixed anything that had gone wrong again, especially the links and emoticon links. =.=" Thanks to Kevin who spotted the error, he is not as ‘KKD’ (blur-case) as he used to be, LOL!

While surfing around for some useful stuff to be included in my blog, I found something which is quite interesting. Try this out and see for yourself. Tadaaa! I present you the world’s most infamous, Gematriculator!

The Gematriculator is a service that uses the infallible methods of Gematria developed by Mr. Ivan Panin to determine how good or evil a web site or a text passage is. Basically, Gematria is searching for different patterns through the text, such as the amount of words beginning with a vowel. If the amount of these matches is divisible by a certain number, such as 7 (which is said to be God's number), there is an incontestable argument that the Spirit of God is ever present in the text. Another important aspect in gematria is the numerical values of letters: A=1, B=2 ... I=9, J=10, K=20 and so on. The Gematriculator uses Finnish alphabet, in which Y is a vowel. Experts consider the mathematical patterns in the text of the Holy Bible as God's watermark of authenticity. Thus, the Gematriculator provides only results that are absolutely correct.

My results, 59% of my blog site contains evil stuff? what the... >"<

Got Sleep 'Deprivation'?

2005-04-29T18:23:00.001+08:00

Just woke up from a tiring sleep after a gruesome morning out accompanying my Mom for her eye medical checkup @ Tun Hussein Onn National Eye hospital in Petaling Jaya. Got lost for about 20 minutes in PJ housing area trying to figure out the exact route to the hospital, but after a few rounds of circling around we gave up and decided to ask for directions. Luckily a motorcyclist was helpful enough to show us the way. Haha! We’ve been to that hospital for a number of times without any problems and this was the first time we got lost. This is embarrassing!

When we’ve reached the place by 9am+, the entire waiting room was crowded so I thought it was going to be a long wait until we meet the specialist. Yes I was right, waited almost for about 2 hours before Mom’s name was called by the nurse. I really wanted to faint that time due to sleep ‘deprivation’ (slept only for an hour the night before). Thanks to a night out for a mamak session with my buddies and also non-stop marathon of watching Initial D and Naruto animes. I think I got addicted to it, I guess! XD

While waiting for Mom, I received an SMS from Rachea saying that she was okay, felt relieved so I replied, hoping she’ll have a great day @ work. SMS-ed others particularly a special person from ABA as well for a chit-chat to keep myself awake. Well unfortunately she did not reply… guess she was busy enjoying her holidays at the moment. Sigh, wasted my 2 cents there! T.T Anyways, Kudos to Maxis Hotlink for the cheap SMS rate plans. I had a great time spamming people via SMS. *spams*

Reincarnation of A Lazy Bum

2005-04-25T21:01:00.000+08:00

Oh dear, I wonder why I'm getting lazy and lazier nowadays. I had tons of homework, housework, assignments and projects bombing me like mad and yet I still find reasons and excuses from the inner me trying to put-off those tasks aside. I am slacking like crazy and I felt so relaxed now. Sigh, so much for my ‘tidak apa’ (never mind) attitude.

Felt like I just wanted to forget everything inside my head right now and just jump on the bed to sleep as if there is no tomorrow. I am still thinking and fiddling on whether the Dark side is good for me or not, perharps. LOL! And if there is a thing such as an existence of a job which requires us humans to procrastinate, definitely I will be the right man for the job and I will hitting the top getting the ‘Employee of the month’ awards for the rest of my working life. That’s for damn sure. Haha! XD

As for now, I am busy into chatting up with my pals, checking out and reading stuffs online... particularly such as random blogs, kaypo forums and news on Google. Found some 'interesting' sites as well so click on the links if you are really NBTD here. :P

Googlefight and RockPaperScissor and WebCrossword. That's so educational right? If it is, then it is good for you then. Haha! :P Careful yeah, never ever underestimate the power of a lazy bum. Maybe I reconsider into joining the light side after all.

Going out now to have a mamak session with my buddies. Till then, signing out!

Flashbacks - A True Story of My Past

2005-04-24T06:01:00.000+08:00

" It took place somewhere in the Gunma prefecture, located in the Kanto region on Honshu island, Japan. I could not recall the exact date or year though. Well, it began like this…It started off with me being a 13 year old kid. Born and raised in a small normal Japanese family with me being the only child of the family. As I can recall, the surname of my family is Fujiwara (means Wisteria Fields). I had no memories of my exact name and my family members’ name that I ought to find it out later. What I remembered was that I had a father who is in his early 40s, who is the only guardian and breadwinner of this family. He’s always seen smoking at times, apparently when I see him. As for his wife, my mother, Dad didn’t seem to tell what has exactly happened to her. He said that she left us when I was at a very young age. Anyways, it didn’t bother me much as both of us are living in such a very normal but happy life. Life seems to be so calm and peaceful in our hometown here, the Akina province.

I learned that Dad has a well-known shop in our town selling fresh tofu here. He had lots of customers who come to his shop everyday to have their meals; most of them are close friends of my Dad. As I was his only son whom soon will be taking over his business, he gradually forced me to help him out almost everyday, without even paying me extra allowances. Eventually I worked for years without any hesitation until I was around 18 years old now. Well what do I do everyday? At 4 am every morning, I have to help him in preparations of tofu making and then deliver the tofu to hotels around the Mount Akina. It was really troublesome and tough at first but I’m used to it after a while.

Since 13, I had been trained by Dad to drive his car, an old looking Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 (in Japanese we called it “Hachi-roku”) to deliver our orderings. Dad sure has a unique way of asking me to drive the ‘Hachi-roku’. Every morning, before I have to go on my tofu delivery route along the long windy roads of Mount Akina, he will give me a cup of water. The cup of water is placed in the drink holder on the dashboard and I wasn’t allowed to have a sip at it. And I was told that I must not spill even a drop of it while I am driving or else I’ll be punished. It was very strange as I didn’t really know what it’s that for, but after many days of doing the same thing over and over again I managed to prevent it from being spilt during the deliveries. Occasionally, Dad checked on the cup and he mentioned that I have the potential to be something good, judging by the way I handle his car doing the same boring thing everyday. I wonder what that was supposed to mean.

Besides that, I work as a part-time at a gas station called GS during the day with my best friend, whose name is Itsuki Takeuchi (we go to the same high school too). As far as I know in work, most of our colleagues there are car racing fanatics and a few of them are even members of a local racing team, known as Akina Speed Stars. The leader of Speed Starts is Kouichirou Iketani, who drives a Nissan S13 Silvia. Then there is Iketani's best friend, Kenji who drives a Nissan 180 SX. He always hangs out at where we work from time to time, usually discussing cars and driving techniques with Iketani and Mr. Yuuichi, our boss. Itsuki himself is also a member of the team as he loves racing and admires Iketani very much, but he doesn’t have a car yet. Iketani thinks that the Speed Stars are the best drivers in Akina but as usual our boss tells him to dream on. Well I was thinking what’s the big deal about car racing? After all they are just a bunch of people who like to race in their leisure time. So funny that I remembered that I was laughing loud, couldn’t care less about cars now.

Well, I heard that guys at the Speed Stars are being challenged to a friendly race by the racers of the Akagi Red Suns, a team from the neighboring city. It is going to be on for next week. Itsuki told me that they are a very highly skilled team lead by Ryosuke Takahashi who's Red Suns leader. They often prefer to race on other team's home course and have a rule about not racing on their home course. Very strange people. However I’m looking forward into watching the race and supporting my friends from the Speed Stars. "

Something Strange

2005-04-24T02:40:00.000+08:00

What is reality in life when you can't trust your memory? I had experienced something very strange which I find it so unbelievable when I woke up this morning. I wasn’t sure whether it was real but it sure was something very familiar to me, it is something which I felt that I had been through before over and over again. Something freaking was going on right at that moment, as I had sudden flashbacks of what I think which could be, my previous past-life. Yet it was so realistic and surreal, that I ended up going through the entire flashback deeply and feeling very confused. It was neither a dream, nor an imagination.

What was that which I am going through now? The reality of the situation is constantly in question. Why are the flashbacks so real? Who am I in my past life? How did I get in ‘there’? What was I doing inside ‘there’? Which personality is correct? Which version of reality is true? Why is this happening to me?

Will tell you what's going on later okay? The most exciting part is gonna come. Stay tuned! =)

Return Of The Darth Vader

2005-04-22T22:12:00.000+08:00

Gosh, it has been such a long long time since I last posted a blog in here. I had just recovered from the Rubella infection, aka German measles and to tell you the truth, it wasn’t an enjoyable experience to fall sick at that moment. Well it has been going on almost for a week that I have to suffer the torturing of pure insane-itchiness. I wondered why I will get infected at such age, getting measles during the adult stage is a big no-no and it could be quite risky and threatening as well.

FYI especially the ones who thought I was joking; Rubella is contagious almost to anyone at any age, not only to children and FEMALES. Even those who have been infected during young would end up getting nothing… no symptoms, but still spreading the virus to others. Dun ‘play play’ I tell you! Such thing would have the ability to threaten your life and take you away. Try to Google out for more information if you're curious to know more or wish to make fun of my sickness. Alright? :P

At times during the toughest moments, I couldn’t get a hold of myself and began to scratch the infected areas filled with painful, horrible red spots and patches, succumbing myself to the overwhelming dark side. Lol, I’m talking craps again! On the serious side, whenever a person is down with Rubella infection, I can assure you that he or she is going to face a hard time ahead, towards the golden Age of Itchiness. Not forgetting the early symptoms and signs as well, it is HORRIBLE experiencing it! The ones marked with stars (**) were the ones which are driving me nuts.

Low-grade fever

Headache **

General discomfort or uneasiness

Runny nose

Inflammation of the eyes (bloodshot eyes) **

Rash with skin redness or inflammation **
Muscle or joint pain **

Well as for the eating part, it is obvious that I’ve to cut down a lot especially on the fried and spicy ones which tend to be my regular favorites. No eggs, no seafood, no snacks, no this, no that, it’s either the porridge or plain slices of bread. Haha, tough nuts! Well what’s worse is that my granny mentioned that it is better to quit eating such ‘heaty’ stuff for approximately 3 months, which is to prevent scars and keeps blood in your body from being poisoned. That’s Chinese saying….or should I say their way of prevention. Sigh, I've got no choice but to listen. Hope i'll be fully recovered and get ready for next week, had ignored lots of important stuff which were meant to be done earlier. =.="

And I would also like to express my gratitude and thankfulness for all the well-wishes, guys. It really helped to speed up my recovery, I tell you. It's true. ARIGATO-GOZAIMAS! I am lucky indeed that I live for another day, shall be back to haunt you guys. Haha! That's all, signing out! :)

Life Without BitTorrent ('o',) .v..

2005-04-14T22:15:00.000+08:00

I woke up late this afternoon and found out that my current downloading of torrents was completed. I spent an hour’s time on the world’s most ever successful, inspirational, richest, loveliest, arrogant, powerful person....Donald Trump’s “The Apprentice 4" – 1^st episode. Personally I think it is worth watching, considering that you might get to learn some business-related stuffs as well as principles out of it. Thank God that Mr. ‘Nice Wig’ Donald Trump won’t be appearing in every screens of the show, or else I won’t be watching this series. Lol! Can’t stand to watch his weird funny hairdo but apparently it’s found to be real! =) But there is one problem, the size of an episode of Apprentice bittorrent can be as large as up to 700 MBs. OMG! So lots of patience is required when you download it. Man, I loved watching this so-called ‘reality’series, but I’m not as crazy as the ‘kiasu’ Ryan who worshipped him as if like a religion so much. Ha-ha! Bet he’s going to cry out loud when he sees this. Lol! :P Get the Apprentice torrents here!

( The CSI investigation team does an autopsy on Donald Trump's hair )

Donald : Sir, I'm innocent!

Agent 01 : I announced you are charged under the law of...

Donald : Sir, I told you that I was trying to let my hair grow, being constantly told to get it cut, and pretending all the while it was not growing by smearing it down with Brylcreem!

Agent 01 : Would you kindly shut up once and for all!? I found some traces of dandruff on you hair! Busted!

Donald : Sir, you got it all wrong. You should have say, "You're Fired!"

Agent 01 : .....

Lately for the past few days, I have been busy downloading tons of torrents such as mp3 albums, animes and popular TV series. Yum-yum! I can forsee the future that my hard disk's gonna go burst, well sooner or later. Lol! Basically I don’t think it’s illegal because it's.... Well who in the world would cares about that anyway? I must say that BitTorrent was the greatest thing to happen to me since the day that freaking sluggish Streamyx was discovered. Lol! Well most of the best things in life are free right? Hmmm....I shall continue with my downloadings of torrents and watch some animes as well. Till then, signing out! :)

Oh My 'Gracious Lord Vader' 2!

2005-04-11T23:23:00.000+08:00

On the bright side, I was glad that I had some great team members in my AOOM groupings when all of us in the intake were all assigned by the 'big-bad-final-boss', Mr Sanath again. Sheessh! We had like 3 great guys and a girl in my group, urmm...which is quite 'balanced' though. Think about it, I was quite lucky compared with my buddies' groupings, especially Mike! "My 'condolences' to you okay?" Lol! Anyhow, I will have to work harder than before, as the members in my group are quite intelligent and capable of doing great jobs. Well, I hope.

Managed to download and watch two of the latest Naruto episodes from Dattebayo. Wow! 'saabaku no Gaara' aka Kagekaze kicks ass man, eat your hearts out Narutards!

Downloaded another cool anime which is about basketball, Buzzer Beater by the great Inoue Takehiko who is also the manga-otaku of Slam Dunk! Watched the first episode and it was nice, the drawings and animations are quite good. I will watch the remaing three later. Those interested can get torrents from [Saizen] :P

Hmm...i think that's all for now. I would like to take a time out to relax and watch my animes. Till then, signing out! *May the Dark Force be with you*

Oh My 'Gracious Lord Vader'!

2005-04-11T22:40:00.000+08:00

Oh sh*t...really had a tough day today. Woke up late this morning and saw that the clock was hitting almost 11.30 am. I realized that I was supposed to be attending my supervisor clinic in college at 12.00 pm sharp! Arghh! How in the world could I turn off my alarm clock without looking at the time? Guess I was pretty sleepy and blur at that time =.=" Without wasting time, I rushed for a short shower, had a nice breakfast made by Mom and quickly hurried to college. It was almost half an hour late when I reached the class, where I was supposed to meet my supervisor and my heart was beating madly as hell. Seriously, I wasnt ready to present my proposal and I wasnt in the right mood to present due to my blurriness and laziness of not doing some 'homework' to support along my proposal before I come. But I was hoping towards to see Mr Zarak (my FYP supervisor) in person. Damn, it turned out that he was hospitalised and was on leave for almost a week!

The admins told me to see Mr Sanath (mother of all bosses/supervisors). I thought it would be a great idea to have him to supervise me temporarily, as he is quite a good & understanding lecturer and offers great advices as well as suggestions. Unfortunately it turns out that my PPF was rejected, due to insufficient complexity + features in the system and that my proposal doesnt really meet the standard of a final year project! OMG, I was totally gutted + stunned during that time! Fought back with every solida reasons and craps I made up to backup my proposal and it failed to convince him. Guess he was in a bad mood at that time due to his heavy work schedules. What he replied was just short - but very true statements, countered almost everything that I could think of. After an hour of trying to 'take' him down, I gave up arguing. I've lost the battle to the 'final boss'. But in the end, he gave me some better suggestions to beef up my PPF and told me that I could stick back to what I wanted to. To hear that was a relief, but I felt discouraged to continue on with my proposal thanks to him. After that, I left the the office and proceed to my classes! *sniff* Should've brought along my 'lighsaber' and some 'lifepacks' to face this tough nut! Sad but what to do? Sigh! I'll have my revenge sooner or later. Just like the famous quote by Arnie the Terminator, "I'll be back!" :)

Procrastination = My Religion!

2005-04-10T19:23:00.001+08:00

I've been such a great procrastinator in these couple of days, which I kept on delaying things that should've been done earlier. It helps me to get hold of myself and release my stress and tensions. I felt so God-Like now! ( it's for the current moment only :P ). Well at least I did something which is good + informative enough to fill up my free time.

- Checked my buddies blogs as well as added some spams in their tagboard. I updated mine of course - Added a buddy's blogring section.

- Fixed my BitComet (quite a nice bit torrent P2P sharing program, try it!) configs + disabled the lame NVIDIA firewall - Wohoo! Now I can begin my downloadings of my fav Bit Torrents! Thnx to Chip!

- Did a slightly lame version of my PPF proposal, which is supposed to be shown to my supervisor tomorrow - Sigh, will redo it again later :P

- Visited the PAGOL site and played with the features in there. Updated my information and I've added 'important' FYP notices in my so-called diary. Interesting, lol!

Found a website which it is quite an old story yet so interesting, well just a coincidence though. The John Titor website, a guy who claimed that he was a soldier on a mssion @ time-traveller from the year 2036 and possessed a lots of almost-true predictions as well as a time machine. Sure it was interesting but I think I shall not believe entirely on what he said plus I'm keeping a healthy skepticism inside me. Just curious okay? =)

Yet again, I've been spending countless of hours in fron the of PC...argghh! This is very very bad for my eyes...But dont worry, I reassured myself that I will not end up wearing specs as some of you guys out there expect me to. So FAT HOPES in landing me, the Dark Lord of the Sith to wear such weird stuff, for he shall wear the most fearful black Mask! Come join the dark side of the Force! =) Well that's for now, time to take a shower and get myself a great dinner. Signing out!

Bad News... (=_O)"

2005-04-09T16:58:00.000+08:00

Woke up this morning feeling very restless and a bit unwell. In fact, I've just recovered from a cracking bad headache and blurry vision, which I got last night during a day out with my buddies. So I went to see the doc for a minor checkup and I was told that I may be suffering from a bad eyesight which tends to strain my eyes once in a while therefore giving me headache, which I think is due to my computer activities in front of the PC 24/7 =.= Well, the doc told me that I should go for an eye checkup in case it gets worse. Arghh, this sound bad. I dont want to end up wearing a thick ugly spectacles which I could find it very uncomfortable. A big NO to me wearing that, I aint a '4 Eyed Guy' wannabe! Sigh! I couldnt believe that after all those years I've managed to maintain a perfect eye vision without any problems, finally it's probably deteriorating by now. Talk about hitting the old age! Haha, well serves me right for not taking simple preventive measures (like sitting for away from the TV or computer screen, etc) during my early days! Anyways, I'm not worried plus I'm prepared for such outcome, after all I've spent half of my entire life in front of the damn computer screen. LOL! And it's a long term thing, for your eye visions to deteriorate as you grow older...well i mean OLD. Here are some interesting articles I found in AskMen.com regarding about good eyesight and its preventive measures, which is quite informative. Hope it helps! Here and here

Well I wouldnt mind wearing specs in the future. That is if I turn out as good looking as this guy! YEAHHH-baby! Muahaha! =P

Numa Numa Yay!

2005-04-06T21:51:00.000+08:00

Arghhh! After many many times of getting the 'Numa Numa' song (it's actually entitled "Dragostea Din Tea" by the Romanian pop band, O-Zone) out of my head successfully about a month ago, it has finally came back to hit me once again. The craze started when a young fat American, Gary Brolsma took the orignal song and turned it into a worldwide hit MTV, with himself doing the Numa Numa Dance. Haha! Damn, seriously it was really ticklish + hillarious watching him doing the dance, but he does it in a extremely cool sleaky way. LOL! The internet sent it around like crazy, and it's wound up on over 80 websites, with also an appearance on CNN. Woaahh...I cant believe this but this guy's even hotter than William Hung, i could say! He rocks! =)

( The True American Idol )

The craze in me started this morning when Mike asked me during class whether had I ever heard of the song. From what he told me, I've found out that he has gotten the sickness and addiction over it thru' watching the 'American Idle' flash video, another parody of the orignal video. Lol! And I did promised him to send him the orginal song by the time I got home. Well, I did...but I ended up gotten addicted to it! Darn, should've played the song in the first place! I cant seem to stop playing the song, in fact it has been the only mp3 which's playing on my Winamp repeatedly for an estimated 20+ times?! What the heck? I guess I got the sickness back again and I'm really really addicted to it. I've been singing along the chorus like a freak-up parrot with nuts stuck in its throat, hitting the high notes in a frenzy mode as high as possible. "Ma-ia-hii...Ma-ia-huu...Ma-ia-hoo...Ma-ia-haha!!" OMG, I'm getting crazy, someone please stop me! I cant seem to control myself, my body is moving by itself! *goes on shaking his bonbon* LOL! =.="

Late Night Poem

2005-04-06T01:53:00.000+08:00

As I Grew Older by Langston Hughes

It was a long time ago.
I have almost forgotten my dream.
But it was there then,
In front of me,
Bright like a sun--
My dream.
And then the wall rose,
Rose slowly,
Slowly,
Between me and my dream.
Rose until it touched the sky--
The wall.
Shadow.
I am black.
I lie down in the shadow.
No longer the light of my dream before me,
Above me.
Only the thick wall.
Only the shadow.
My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling dreams
Of sun!

Commencing Operation 'Hit 4 Sleep'

2005-04-06T01:04:00.000+08:00

A lot has happened since the first week of April. Been busy for the past 2 days doing researches on a few subjects, preparing slides for my PMMT presentation which is due on tomorrow and completing the project proposal aka 'Final Year Project 2' for Mr 'troublesome' Kalai, my least 'favourite' lecturer from DWA. Argghh! The hard times are coming soon and hopefully I can make it through. *coughs coughs* There is still a long long way to go before I reach the end of this journey towards peace and humanity. *coughs* Yet, it's getting dark here and through my blurry eyes, i could see a dim ray of light at the otherside. I reached out my hand to hold for it but I can hardly see it now. It seems like it's starting to fade away. *coughs* I must fight against it if I am to make it through...Lol! Crap's aside okay?

I've just found out the announcement through the college webspace that my project supervisor for my finals is Mr Zarak Bin 'Something'. I wasnt feeling any anything...probably turned blur at the time, due to the reason that nobody knows exactly who is this Zarak guy and how is his personality as a lecturer. However, I was by an old ex-classmate of mine that this man, is good at giving guidance on helping students out in their projects, but is stern with ones that doesnt have a strong database foundation in developing a project (that's me >"<). So I'm quite relieved and relaxed thou'. Well, we shall see about that. Hopefully he turns out to be alright and could provide me some guidance/help on my project.

Sigh, it's getting late now. I wonder why I'm feeling kind of down and quiet for the whole day as well as very sleepy. Guess I wasnt ready for the day, without someone who's missing here to motivate me, i think. :( And I've just realized that I've spent too much time facing the damn monitor surfing for stuff and chatting. Some time were spent on revamping a few features plus layouts of this blog as well as testing the codes & sources, for FUN!? Arghh...what has gone wrong with me? It's time for me to get away from things and sleep I guess =.=" Hopefully by the time I close my eyes and wake up the next day, i wouldn't have this kind of weird feelings anymore. signin out, ciaoz!

Launching Soon : New K-Car By Perodua!

2005-04-03T15:02:00.000+08:00

I wonder why I've been so much into CARS lately? I guess it's been a long time since I've got the car fever. Perharps I've started to regained some of my interest on it since the day my sister took control over my precious Perodua Kenari (A)1000cc. Plus, I've got to drive my uncle's slightly more powerful car which is the Proton Waja (A) 1800cc in these recent months, totally ignoring the car as well. It's been such a long time since I've ever touch and drive what was used to be called my 'darling' - the legendary 'Enzo' Kenari. Haha! Think about it, I've spent quite a load of amount of money on this lovely sub-compact car, in fact I used up around 2k of my own money on it while the rest are actually paid by my Dad. Lol! Sneaky eh? :P The moddings on the car arent cheap either compared to other cars which have bigger CCs. but still it turns out to be very normal cause' my sister has just transferred the Kenari into a Pig Mobile, which has many cute plush dolls and a Bulldog sticker on the rear mirror! So sad! =.=" I'm going to take a picture of the car and will post it up here later. I need to prove to my bud, Kevin that legendary cars such as mine will be able to 'smoke' and overcome his car!

So have any one of you guys seen the advertisement by Perodua on its coming car? I heard that Perodua will be launching this probably somewhere in the next few coming months. Not really sure with the car specifications and the prices, but it's a model which is almost similiar to the Toyota Passo and Daihatsu Sirion (Boon). Toyota Passo -> Daihatsu Boon -> Perodua *Unnamed*. However, some people says it looks like Honda Jazz as well. Judging from the pictures, I could say that the outlook and the interior of the car looks cute and stylish in some way. Try to imagine if it's a modified version, that would be uber-impressive! Hopefully the interior-wise doesnt look like the one in Gen-2. I'm looking forward towards the launching of this car. So tell me what do you think about these, eh?

Project A - Revamp! (NATO)

2005-04-03T12:43:00.000+08:00

I have planned to make a new layout for my blog site soon, provided if I have the time to do so. The default templates provided by Blogspot are okay but those are plain usual and it starts to bore me already. Plus, I want to have something which is different from the others. Lol! I kind of like those cool impressive artistic layouts (inspired by some of the blogs out there, I would die to have one of those *drools*). These are self-made layout which can be designed by anyone who is full of creativity and innovative as well. But the problem is I'm not that creative and a pure noob in web designs, haha! I need to put some time into learning codes and do some research (copy & paste? lol!) on other great blogging sites out there. Well changing a few things here and there, without knowning how horrible it turns out to be or how big the mistakes are, will sure do me good. At least I get to learn things and correct my mistakes, right? I'll inform everyone once the new layout is out. Just let me know what do you guys think of the current one, via MSN or the Shoutout section okay? And please...please do not hesitate to criticize it. If any of the comments given comes out to be too harsh, you probably end up enjoying the "1000 years of pain", one of my favourite legendary jutsu skill! Well I'm just kidding... :P

Sunday Morning...Qing Ming

2005-04-03T10:38:00.000+08:00

Geee, what a tiring morning I had as I just came home from another Qing Ming prayers/offerings. This time it was a 'enjoyable' visit to my great grandparents and great grandrelatives somewherein Sg Besi again. But man...the place was really this BIG and it was overcrowded with a sea of people. However, I'm pleased seeing everyone no matter young and old, still paying respects to the generations of past ancestors. The whole morning was spent on locating the gravesite, cleaning every single tombs and did prayers/offerings.

I felt that I was doing something adventure-like aka Indiana Jones style, as I walked through valleys of thick Jungle-like bushes, carrying my backpack and heavy exploring stuffs, faced every challenges and dangers ahead while locating for the lost treasures (the grave site). Lol, talk about the imaginations and craps I had in my mind at that time! Arghh, the grasses and weeds are killing me softly as I had a hard time pulling the roots out with my bare hands! Tough nuts! Those weeds aren't like what you usually see in the park or a garden. They are those covered with THORNS =.=, managed hurt my fingers a couple of times but it was nothing, after all I'm the legendary Indiana Jones who fears nothing! Haha! I should've brushed up my gardening skills next time before I come! lol! :)

Well in the ancient Chinese times, I found out that "people celebrated Qing Ming Festival with dancing, singing, picnics, and kite flying. Colored boiled eggs would be broken to symbolize the opening of life. In the capital, the Emperor would plant trees on the palace grounds to celebrate the renewing nature of spring. In the villages, young men and women would court each other!" Wow...you get to court each other? Is this true or it's just a myth?! Damn, I wonder why such a things never happens now? Wasted! Arghhhh...lol!

Hmm, overall I'm still glad to see that the tradition still lives on greatly despite it is now the 21st century. I wouldnt mind giving up one of my weekends to go for this so called Chinese holiday celebration as I was there on behalf of my family especially my granny, to pay my respects and honor my past ancestors. I had a deep thought for the entire visit, thinking that we are all very lucky for what we are today and should be very grateful to our past ancestors. Considering what they have suffered during the tough times and worked very hard to provide a better future for their coming generations, which fortunately happens to be us. So to my past ancestors whom might be watching me from the heavens above, I would like to personally thank you ALL from the bottom of my wretching broken heart. I salute you! Sob...Sob... *gets too emotional and grabs a tissue paper* Lol, getting a shower and a good rest. Till then. =)

Relaxing Morning

2005-03-31T06:25:00.000+08:00

I woke up at 5:30 am suddenly just now thinking I was late for college but I wasn't. That's because there ain't any classes on for today, which means I'll be having a day off! But yet again, I missed out on my dinner last night after having a long deep sleep without any wake-ups in between. Sigh, this is getting really bad for me, and my empty stomach as I've have been missing Mom's cooking for the past 2 days! I still remember the words which Dad used to 'threaten' me whenever I slept late and woke up very late in the afternoons the next day.

He would always start by saying, "Why waste your precious time by spending it all on sleeping when the day rises? Your time is always upside down, do live a normal life, could you? When it is the time you die, you will be spending your entire life sleeping forever!". Thinking deeply about his statement, I would find it to be funny but true. Therefore, my usual reply to him would be always, "Ok whatever, I'm going to wake up now and dig up a nice comfortable grave-spot somewhere else to have my eternal sleep". Lol! Let's hope he doesn't get pissed off by what I've said. After all, I'm still under the sleeping mode, uttering rubbish and talking nonsense bluntly without realizing anything. Haha! =)

Hmm...it's going to be half past 7 soon! What should I do on such a beautiful Thursday morning eh? Perharps I've should have washed up myself and have a nice shower? A dog walk or a drive out around the area? Most important thing now is the time for me to have my breakfast (or 'dinner'). Nothing beats homemade peanut butter toasted sandwiches and a cup of hot Milo, yummy! Man I'm getting hungry just thinking about them. Can't wait for it to get into my mouth. Lol! Till then...shall report more on later!

Pray For Indonesia

2005-03-31T05:36:00.000+08:00

"Most of the deaths from Monday night's 8.7-magnitude earthquake in the Indian Ocean were on Nias, Indonesia, 75 miles south of the epicenter. The island's death toll stood at about 333, but government officials said it could climb as high as 2,000. An unidentified official from nearby Aceh province said that about 100 people also died on neighboring Simeulue island. Both islands are just west of Indonesia's much larger Sumatra island." More news here

Sigh, this is sad news for us all. 333 people are already dead after the earthquake in Indonesia and it is believed that the death toll are rising steadily to an estimated 1000. These people have been through so much, only last Christmas they experienced the Tsunami and there may be another one on it's way. My heart goes out to all the families of the dead. Rest in peace...

1st Day of Classes

2005-03-28T09:45:00.000+08:00

Yawn...it's around 9:45 am now and I had a good sleep last night after hitting the bed for slumberland without waking up for the whole day. The sad part is I missed out on the lunch as well as dinner by the time I woke up. What worries me now is the draft PPF that we are going to submit in 2 days time. Still havent think of any good ideas as well as do research, darn I think I have to rush everything to decide on the title on my FYP. Sigh, scary to think about it. I turned on the computer to do some surfing, check my mails then prepared myself while waiting for the kiasu Ryan to come give me a lift to college at 11 am. We're starting our 1st classes this week, therefore I hope there would be nothing much for us to do for the moment as most of us will be busy doing the draft PPF. That's all for now I think...I'm hoping for an interesting day in college. Signing out!

Ughh...Need Sleep...Precious!

2005-03-27T12:02:00.000+08:00

Man, I had a freaking tiring morning without getting any sleep since last night! The feeling now is like not having sleep for a week or fortnight (I'm exaggerating too much!). But anyhow, I managed to blog here for a while before jumping straight onto bed and off to Slumberland later. I just came back from my Qing Ming prayers with my family and relatives. FYI, Qing Ming is a Chinese rite marking the beginning of spring that is focused on ancestor worship. On this day, people visit gravesites and make offerings to the souls of their deceased relatives.

Thank God we're heading to the temple instead of gravesites, because it was where both of my grandfathers were cremated (burned into ashes) and kept in urns which was eventually kept inside the temple. The temple was located somewhere in Sungai Besi, which is nearby the TUDM (Malaysian Air Force). By the time we reached there at 10 am, it was getting hot and I felt like I was going to faint on the spot, due to the lack of sleep! And guess what? The temple was entirely overcrowded by visitors, from the top floor till the ground floor! I supposed everyone's in a hurry to make offerings and prayers before they start work the next day. It was crazy to see people rushing here and there to pray, horrible traffic jams with vehicles parked on every empty spot which I think is impossible to be on! It was total havoc until the traffic police came over to control the traffic flow. Phew...

The worst part was having difficulty to face the thick smelly smoke which irritates the eyes, caused by the jawsticks, candles, burning of paper offerings, and not forgetting firecrackers set off by some of the idiots out there. I wonder how could people stand it but I can see a large number of people in the crowd were 'crying'. Lol! Ever heard of the popular song, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes...Touching yeah? That's when you cry then. Darn, i had teary eyes from that moment till I got home! Sigh, I heard from my parents that we're probably going to my great-grandparents' gravesites to do some cleanings, prayers and offerings next week. OMG! =.=

Right now, I'm going through some of my buddies' blog to check out on the lastest happenings as well as listening to some nice sentimental songs by Leo Ku. Suprised to see everyone's back into the blogging trend as it has died down recently. Lol! I found Rachea's new blog as well. Well Rach if you're reading this, Congrats and all the best with your new blog and I would also like to apologise for replying your SMSes very late. And how's the keyboard doing?

That's all for now i think...time to sleep! Dont try to wake me up! Ciao!

2 Terroists And 1 Sleepy Morning

2005-03-26T05:51:00.000+08:00

Darn...its around 6 in the morning soon and I've not able to sleep at all for the past few hours. Been surfing and chatting with frens for the whole night, after that I continued on to finish watching some replays of Chinese series and a Spiderman movie on Astro, thumbs! Plus I've got to fetch my bro to school later for his weekly co-curriculums and get myself a good breakfast around 7am. So I guess I better not sleep at all till I'm done with my so-called important tasks. Sigh... =.=

Meanwhile, there is a urgent news from one of my most calibre agent, that my blog has been hijacked by two sneaky new-converted Al-Qaeda terroists, Michael and Eddie! Both of them are currently wanted by authorities from around the world as these two are one of the most dangerous criminals who works for the DARK side. The report says that time recorded on this incident was at 5:30 am. I believed that a traitor-turned-informant, who got me into this was Ryan aka 'the Kiasu'. He has worked under my department long before he got sacked not resigned, just like the old times. It would be a critical havoc here soon I assumed if both of the cyber-terroist are not being caught ASAP. Therefore, I might have to close down this secretive site temporarily before the authorities from C.I.A and the F.B.I take over. I will personally hunt down the two terroists to prove and risk my title as well as my reputation as the legendary Jedi Guardian Batista. Lol! Signing out on my report here. =) * i'm joking guys *

My Life's Totally Ownzed...

2005-03-24T15:50:00.000+08:00

Sigh...it's been a pretty hot today and i'm sweating just like a 'wet pig inside a sauna'. Just came back from having lunch at the 'Miu Kai' restaurant with my group of buddies and fetching my granny back home from her monthly medical checkup. After that, I logged in towards my comp just to have a long-but-enjoyable game of Warcraft: Blueserver. For the past week, i've been pretty busy doing lotsa things, which some of them could be irrelevant. Lol!

With many many assignments...projects...classes...events coming through, I bet my life is gonna be interesting and exciting. It's time to make full use of myself, but the main priority now is to rest'n relax first. Put 'Final Year Project' aside please? Haha! I couldnt believe that time passes us by very quickly, considering that I was busy working and enjoying myself for the past few months. Well life was pretty cool and great then when all i did was eating, sleeping, relaxing, blasting musics, hanging out with my buddies, sticking to the comp all the time and a lil' bit of a hillarious, boring but unforgetable job for A.B.A (as a mascot). I miss the old days man....Well, all the good things must come to an end, right? Lol, that's my all time favourite quote.

Oh and one more thing, i would like to wish two of my buddies, Kevin Chen (19th March) and Vincent Tan (23rd March), a very very merry Happy Belated Birthdays! Both of them turned 21st recently and i wish them all the best in their future undertakings. U guys are the best man...Sigh, two old farts coming thru! Lol!

That's all for now, it's time for another game on Warcraft. Till then...signing out!

Late Night Out

2005-03-17T04:15:00.000+08:00

What a tiring day i had today, but that's good. This is because I trying to keep myself as busy as possbile by filling my time with many meaningful things to do. I'm trying not to remind myself that my final year's commencing soon, next week. So, it's going to be back to the old 'college' life, with tons of assignments, classes, projects, presentations and the most important one, the Final Year Project coming through! Arghhh! Well, that's how college life should be right? After all, i think i had enough playing and relaxing in these couple of months, there should some work and stuff involved too - vice versa. All good things must come to an end, and it's time for me to face the 'bad' stuffs again. That's how life should be!

Woke up at noon today just before Ryan came over to my place before we set of to Kevin's house. Well, today was our friend, Yin Wei's 21st birthday. She was a colleague of ours while we were working together in ABA. The Dota freak Ryan had a enjoyable losing game of Dota, a Warcraft game while i immediately went for a shower and go get myself changed. Then we went over to Kevin's place to meet Mike before we set off to Yin Wei's steamboat-cum-b'day celebration session. When we've reached there, we met some of our ex-ABA colleauges as well as some new friends of Yin Wei's. The steamboat session was not bad, considering the heat and the smell of 'tom-yam' that I've to faced directly. It was a enjoyable dinner and we had a great time chit-chatting, taking pictures and some strange-but-funny jokes from our B'day girl. After that, the birthday cakes were out and we had to sing the B'day song for the B'day girl in diiferent languages! To us, It is a tradition to do so whenever anyone from us is celebrating his / her b'day. Anyways, the Black Forest cake was extremely delicious. Yummy!

After our steamboat meal, the entire group, except for a few ABA friends went to Mid Valley to watch a movie entitled Lemony Snicket's : A Series of Unfortunate Events directed by Brad Silberg and starring the ever-funny Jim Carrey. I thought it would be just another regular family movie and didnt had really much hope for it, but it turns out be quite enjoyable. The characters, Count Olaf by J.Carrey looks evil and convincing; and the character Violet played by the Emily Browning is brainy and just a little bit too sexy! *drools* Oh yea, the baby girl's pretty cute and funny too. I'll give it a 7/10!

( Cool Poster & the Characters )

Hmm....thought of getting the story books, but well next time. By the time we've finished the movie it was around 1.30am, so we decided to go home. Once again, a big Happy Birthday to our funny friend, Yin Wei who is turning into the old 21st!! ZzZz...

A Tragic Night

I woke up late at around 12:30pm today. Felt something stiff on my neck and I was a little bit of blur. This is due to what happened last night, a nights out at the Sri Murni (a popular mamak spot to have late night snacks and hangout with friends) in SS2 with my buddies, Ryan and Micheal. Something funny happened indeed, it was a night i would never forget. =D

You see, it was raining 'cats and dogs' when we were on the way to our location via Mike's car. After we've found our parking spot, I asked whether should we use the umbrella as it was still raining heavily. Thinking it would be a hassle to carry an umbrella, three of us decide not to use it, seeing that the mamak was quite near to Micheal's parking spot. "A few drops of rain won't kill us right? Just run across the freaking street!", I was saying to myself. As long i didnt step into the puddles of water and slipped myself, then it would be okay! With me leading the pack, I ran across the street. In front of me was a table with a couple having their supper. Guess what? I was about to hit them but managed to brake in time and evade hitting anyone or anything. It was close and the couple didnt notice what happened either. But Ryan was behind me. He too was rushing towards the same spot I went to prevent the rain from 'killing' him, without noticing anything in front. He managed to stop but it was a little bit late, he bumped onto the table where the couple was and hit a chair or two. Phew...it was a 'near miss' crashing into the crowd but he made it, and apologised to the 'victims'.

Finally, it was Mike's turn as he was the last one on the line. He ran towards the same spot where both of us were going to evade the rain. Unfortunately, he didnt 'survived'. He accidently slipped on the wet floor and went tumbling down, crashing into the couple's table. We were shocked and at the same time excited. His Sony Erricson T610 phone didnt 'survived' either, as it came flying out from his loose pocket pants and it slided towards my direction when he slipped. Immediately, i picked up the phone and rush towards him, hoping he was okay. But a large crowd sitting around the area saw what happened and got shocked too. I didnt really catch the crowds' expression but i could say we were really UBER-embarassed. Well imagine this, all of them were giggling and laughing out loud on us deep inside! Man, if I was one of them, I would have cried out laughing and would have branded these guys (us) as clumsy clowns or whatever. Darn! Smart thing we managed to cover up by laughing out loud at Mike while he pretended as it was nothing, pity him. :P

( Mike on the floor ^.^ )

Without wasting time, we walked towards into the inner area of the mamak and sat on a table at a corner, hiding ourselves from the crowd who witness the dreadful-deadly-horrible accident. LOL! But soon, we forgot about it as we had our dinner and had lots of discussion about games and computer stuffs. Joining us on our meals and discussion were Thomas and Wee Hong. I did enjoyed the mamak session. After that, we head back home, still laughing hard at Mikes on the way back home and i slept after that. It was a moment which I would never ever forget! Funny as hell! LOL, sorry Mike! The lesson of this story is "Better To Be Safe Than Sorry". Hahaha! =D

Opening Ceremony : My First Blog

2005-03-13T11:17:00.000+08:00

well there here goes my first blog...i am gonna start off with something boring... :D

What is blog? Why people do bloggings? Blogging has exploded in popularity particularly amongst young people, that we know. Reason? They are a way of expressing and communicating on the net, along with mails, chatrooms, forums, instant messaging and etc. But do you know why i blog? To save the human mankind and the universe? To make Osama bin Laden and his fellow crooks surrender? To write interesting and influential crap stories? Hell NO!

Using this blog as some sort of a personal diary would be a good thing to express myself, my feelings, my thoughts, my experiences of my life in reality. Well some of it would turn out to be normal-craps to some of you bloggers out there, but hey...sharing is caring right? So welcome to my world...listen to my stories...

-peace out-
