Chronicles Of The YuV

Chapter 309 - 5 Months Ago

2011-10-29T12:08:00.002+08:00

Shit. I find it so hard to believe I haven't blogged for over 5 months. I wasn't all that good at it but still, so hard to believe I just left it here for so long to rot. Either way, this is just to recap what happened in the last few months when I was AWOL.

1. I finished my internship in Mattel Development and Tooling (M) Sdn Bhd. Excellent place to work at, amazing people working there, great learning experience and very nice working atmosphere. I only have 1 complaint. There's not enough women there. Like seriously. You can count the number of girls in the entire plant of over 300 people. Very sad for a young boy like myself.

2. I graduated college. Finally taking my degree in Technology Management with Honors from University Utara Malaysia. I can finally say goodbye permanently to the stupid butthole place that is University Utara Malaysia. Good ratio of girls here, just that they're just not all that fun. Which is why I ended up with a girl 4 hours away from my home. *smacks head*

3. I was asked to help out a friend to commentate for an autocross event he was organizing and since I had nothing better to do over that weekend (sad but true), I agreed. It turned out to be one of the best events I've ever had the privilege of being a part of. Honestly, nothing beats waking up in the morning and when you're barely awake, hear the sound of tires screeching over the asphalt, the amazing soundtrack that is motor sports to wake you up. I lost like 80% of my voice by the end of day 2, breathed in a shitload of tire smoke and dirt, was hungry most of the time, and I'll do it again in a heartbeat. It was that fuckin' awesome.

I need ~~a job~~ money.

Fuck.

Chapter 308 - After A Long, Long Time

2011-10-29T11:49:00.002+08:00

When I was walking towards the stage, I could only feel the adrenaline pumping in me. It's been almost 3 months since my internship ended and I continued working in Switch again with the assumption that I'll need to go back to college again when it reopens in September.

I was wrong. It doesn't happen very often, me being wrong, but when it comes to things related to the university and how they run their whole shindig, it just confuses me so much I just don't care. Quite possibly the chain of events which led to me being wrong in the first place.

It wasn't so much the fact that I was getting my degree or I'm finally graduating, leaving the hellhole that is University Utara Malaysia (which, is actually a nice place to study, with all the facilities and closeness to nature). Fuck UUM. The thing is that I've never actually mentally prepared myself to being a graduate and finally having to step into the world of working men and women. I have a feeling that I'm finally liberated from the constraints that was my life in college yet the fear of being unprepared or immature to step into the working world.

My dad didn't give me any time to relax at all. After walking out of the hall, he immediately told me to start looking for a job and get out of the house.

I think the only way to start with the working life is by doing things how I've always been doing them. Just wingin' it.

Chapter 307 - Birthdays & Me

2011-05-05T18:34:00.002+08:00

It's supposed to be your birthday morning. You wake up all excited and hoping the day will be the best day you've had in ages. You check your phone for texts and your Facebook for the friends of yours who dropped you an early birthday wish or message on your "wall". You brush your teeth more vigorously, trying to look your best and make sure you get every single gap in between your teeth clean. You open your wardrobe/cupboard and choose the clothes that will compliment you the best, in fact, you hope that what you wear that day would compliment you EVEN more on that day than any other. You expect to be given a king's welcome and greeted with smiles and happy wishes on your auspicious day. You grab that cup of coffee and drink it, somehow feeling that it tastes better than it usually does, wondering it probably was brewed better than the glasses on the other not-your-birthday days.

You go about doing your daily routine, hoping for a cake or for a party or at least a small get-together with your closest friends and family. You hope the dinner is properly cooked and everyone who came for your small party will be well-fed and will have a great time socializing with your other friends and family members. You'd hope to also have fun, enjoying the chit chat and whatnot.

You'd see all your guests to the door as they leave, hoping they had as much of a great time as you did, and you'd not worry about the dishes and the cleaning up, thinking, it is after all YOUR birthday. You'd want to relax a bit, if you drink, have another drink, if you smoke, have another cigarette, if you do neither, just relax, and not long after, go unpack whatever presents your guests brought you, hoping to find something you've wanted for a long time but never actually went around to buying. After which, you will want to go get prepped for bed and before you go to sleep, look back and think to yourself what an amazing birthday you've had and be thankful you have people like that in your life willing to do those things for you.

Now, the thing about birthdays is that it doesn't always go your way and bad days don't discriminate whether it's your birthday or not. You won't necessarily wake up to a family waiting to carry you on a pedestal wherever you're going and you sure as hell ain't going to be expecting the amount of bad things that will happen to you.

I for one, don't expect anything on my birthday. I don't expect to wake up to see my floors lined with rose petals and a grand breakfast hot and ready for me to gorge on before I go off to work or whatever it is I'm supposed to do on that day. I don't expect presents because I don't get people presents. It's not that I'm cheap about getting presents, ~~I'm just cheap altogether~~ I just feel there's no point to getting people things they most likely will never use. I'd prefer if someone took me out for a drink or a meal or if you really want to give me something, just give me cash. Nothing beats cold hard cash ~~unless you're giving anything below RM50 in which case, just keep the money~~.

Now, I'm not being ungrateful, I'm being realistic and I don't want to sound rude. I do somehow enjoy the idea of getting something I have no idea about and the fact that the person who gave whatever they gave me actually though of me enough to get me a gift. I just don't like the idea of having to go out to buy something for someone which they probably won't like (because I have no present-buying skills whatsoever) with the budget that I have (I'm still NOT cheap ~~just VERY cheap~~). I'd rather take him or her out for a drink or a meal and just talk and enjoy, probably get them a slice of cake.

All-in-all, I think birthdays are a little bit overrated. I'm not saying it's an entirely bad thing, nor am I saying it's an entirely good thing either. You'd build it up in your head on how much you want to be celebrated and when things don't live up your expectation, you get disappointed and feel like the people close to you aren't actually making an effort to make you happy. The thing is, it's always good to have some kind of expectation but rather than having it on just your birthday, why not have that thought everyday? What's there to stop you from feeling special and, hopefully, make you a more joyful person?

This long post aside, I'd like to mention it's not MY birthday today, but my dad and younger brother's birthday. So, many wishes and happy returns to them.

Chapter 306 - 2011 & What I Want To See

2011-01-24T22:31:00.008+08:00

2011 has been an awesome year so far and I hope to see this awesomeness continue. Here's 5 things I want to see happen this year.

5) People wearing frames without lens to die. Painfully. By fire.

Like that.

4) The Nintendo 3DS actually being released.

3) Twilight, arguably one of the most popular movies of the last few years, suddenly flop cause all the teenage girls watching them realized that in real life, nothing sucks more than pussies which glitter in sunlight.

2) Music returning to more than just auto-tune. I'm sick of singers relying 120% on a microphone which digitalizes their voice instead of just singing.

and the top thing I want to see this year is...

1) Justin Blower's funeral. My internet and my ears have taken enough abuse from the calamity that is this bastard. It needs to end. Now. Which is why I'm thinking of hiring some people to whip this pussy/lesbian/gay/whore/kid/alien's ass.

For all that is good in life, this.. thing must die. True story.

Chapter 305 - A Glimpse Back To 2010

2011-01-09T23:05:00.002+08:00

Another year has passed and here's what happened to me in the year 2010.

1. I have a steady girlfriend whom I've been with for a little over a year now. (Who knew?)

2. I still think technology is like one of the best things man has discovered. Number one is beer.

3. I'm STILL working in Switch (part-time) and I'm STILL unappreciated.

4. I stopped playing Mafia Wars.

5. I went down to KL so many times in the year 2010 I lost count.

6. I spent one of my loneliest semesters ever in UUM. No biggie.

7. Had friends come and go. Some I wish to never see again.

8. Had a more than a few friends getting married. Reminds me that I'm slowly, but surely, getting older. (mind you, my girlfriend keeps calling me old too)

9. I played StarCraft 2 Story Mode.

10. I re-played StarCraft 2 Story Mode.

11. I re-re-played StarCraft 2 Story Mode.

12. I re-re-re-played StarCraft 2 Story Mode.

13. I re-re-re-re-played StarCraft 2 Story Mode.

14. I re-re-re-re-re-played StarCraft 2 Story Mode.

15. I bought my first Razer product, an earphone with mic for me to use on my iPhone, PSP, and laptop.

16. I got addicted to the Razer bug and subsequently bought myself a mouse, mousepad and a shiny StarCraft 2 exclusive Razer keyboard.

17. I got all those high end gaming accessories to plug into..... my 3 year old beloved notebook.

18. I watched Kick-Ass in the cinema. Twice. Loved it.

19. Movies in this year were decent. Mostly.

20. I see more and more stupid people walking around shopping malls. Strangely, they're all fucking loaded. I'm beginning to doubt if what I was thought in school had any relevance at all in my adult life.

21. UUM got flooded. YAY!

22. Internship began in Mattel where I'll work for 4 and a half days weekly at a discounted rate of RM400 monthly.

23. Ended 2010 with a beer in my hand and 2 friends whom are steady enough to celebrate with me. I'm gonna miss them when they're in KL.

2011 started and I have to be awake in less than 6 hours to get prepped for work. Cheers.

Chapter 304 - Death On Facebook

2010-12-20T20:20:00.004+08:00

So some mofo offed himself after his bitch dumped him. He even went as far as posting it on Facebook before he did it.

He jumped off a building cause he was being all emo and shit. So sad. Sad for the guy whose car he landed on. I sure hope his insurance pays him back for the damage.

Also, you might notice that there's 480 "Likes" on his status. I reckon his friends were all like "DUDE, YOU SHOULD LIKE TOTALLY OFF YOURSELF! THAT'D BE FUCKIN' AWESOME!". And then he did. Bet that's why it's so fuckin' awesome. I honestly can't justify why he'd wanna kill himself for a girl who clearly doesn't love him. I mean, going all Titanic and saving her from certain death is one thing but to off yourself and rid her with guilt and probably mentally scar her for life? You must be some high level nut to do that.

I have to say though. What kinda name is "Alviss"? Is it supposed to be a Chinese-efied "Elvis" or did you intend on naming yourself "Elvis" and misspelled it as "Alviss" and just stuck with it? Such a dumbass. He's the epitome of stupidity. If it were up to me, I'd put a picture of this guy in a pictorial dictionary for the word "dumbass", eg. "Alviss was such a dumbass for killing himself over his bitch."

Chapter 303 - Internship 1

2010-12-14T20:01:00.002+08:00

So, it's been 2 days since I've started my internship and it's safe to say that I'm bored outta my mind and I'm gonna bring my PSP to work tomorrow to play my new game. That's how bored I've been. So far, all I've been asked to do is some lame typing job which a 5 year old would've been able to do. If he had the attention span. Which he probably doesn't. Like me.

Chapter 302 - The Working Life

2010-12-10T20:24:00.002+08:00

My working life is gonna start this Monday. It's an internship but still, it's my first step to a real job. I just hope I don't fuck things up.

Chapter 301 - A Little Secret

2010-12-03T02:15:00.002+08:00

So here's me sharing with you a little secret I've come to discover.

You know when you turn on your Facebook and then you see someone cute? Then you click on the profile and wanna see more of that person but end up finding out that the profile is locked for friends.

So what do you do?

You add them.

After that when you see the display photos, the person doesn't look half bad and you think that you have a shot and maybe should just try to know him or her. Who knows, maybe you'd get lucky, right?

WRONG.

You need to remember something.

Cameras these days are digital. This basically means, he or she can take a million photos from a million different angles just to find one that is nice and use that photo for their display photo. Please be reminding I've not even considered those who Photoshop their own photos yet.

All I'm saying is be careful who you add in your Facebook. Don't add people just cause they seem cute on their display photos. You could get butt-raped.

Just what I think.

Chapter 300 - THIS IS SPARTA!!!

2010-11-13T00:25:00.005+08:00

Of course, this ISN'T Sparta, though when the number 300 comes in front of me, that's the only thing that goes through my mind. That being said, this is somewhat a rather big milestone for me. Actually reaching 300 posts of pointless, utterly insignificant blog posts which mainly consists of me ranting on my views on how things are, Internet memes, the little things I go through and whatnot, is a really big deal.

To put it bluntly, I'm like an episode of The Simpsons. What happens at the start of the episode most probably won't have anything to do with whatever that goes on in the end of the episode. I like that I'm like that, though many would beg to differ. But then again, I've never been the type to care.

I wanted to do something about this post, like take a photo or cut a cake or write something somewhat special after that I just got bored and started ranting again.

So, I just finished God Of War: Ghost Of Sparta, the latest installment in the God Of War franchise. The story falls between God Of War I and God Of War II and explains more in detail of Kratos' family. Very good game. Totally worth playing. Then again, all the God Of War games are worth playing. Twice. At least.

Chapter 299 - Flood In Kedah

2010-11-08T00:32:00.002+08:00

So, the recent monsoon season has hit Kedah pretty hard. The whole state is slowly sinking and over 30,000 people are now left homeless. When I heard that, I really felt pity for the victims.

And then I read that because of the flood, UUM is now temporarily closed until further notice. Read article here.

3 years in UUM and FINALLY something happens. God IS great.

Chapter 298 - Gene Simmons Vs The Internet

2010-10-18T22:28:00.002+08:00

4chan, a forum really famous for their actions against Scientology (a retarded religion), apparently have set their eyes on a new target. According to Gizmodo and DANGER NAZI ZOMBIES AHEAD, Anonymous (the pseudonym for 4chan members) were discussing on hitting artists and from nowhere, Gene Simmons from the heavy metal band Kiss' name fell onto the board.

As a result his website was apparently hit and taken down Gene Simmons' site. Long story short, Gene Simmons wasn't happy. He's made a police report and the FBI are apparently on this case. I've been on the Internet since I was 10, so I dare say what the 13 years I've spent on the Internet has taught me is to never mess with Anonymous. They will eat you, vomit you out and then piss on whatever remains of you (or at least your life on the Internet which pretty much is everything).

After that, Gene Simmons did what any person who's been on the Internet for more that 4 seconds knows.

DON'T. FUCK. WITH. HACKERS.

He threatened to get them arrested and post their photos online.

Not long after, his recording label's site was down. I had a fucking good laugh out of this, furrealz.

You can read the full article here.

Chapter 297 - My Razer-ume

2010-10-09T17:08:00.003+08:00

Slowly but surely, I will come to ask myself what the fuck I was thinking when I paid for these goodies but until then, I'm gonna be smug and adore my gifts to myself as much as possible.

First, was my Razer Moray+.

Then I got the Razer Abyssus Mirror.

2 days after the mouse, I got myself a Razer Kabuto.

Next, I'm gonna get myself the Razer Marauder Keyboard.

Hmm... Kinda retarded that I'm buying so many accessories especially when I don't have a rig powerful enough to play the games I REALLY wanna be playing.

Chapter 296 - Today's Movies

2010-10-04T00:44:00.003+08:00

It's been quite long but I rewatched The Shawshank Redemption, which some might remember it being a bloody old movie. I almost forgot how well made the movie was, the narration, the characters, the development of the story, so down to earth, no cliche-d moments which you think would only happen in a movie.

Where are movies like that these days?

Out of the dozens of new movies I watched this year, few actually made me feel fulfilled as I did watching a 16 year old movie. Stories now are about fantasy, characters so cliche-d you can tell what words the characters are gonna say next. Not much can surprise you as a movie-goer.

Maybe I feel that way because I've watched a lot of movies but then again, I'm just 23 this year, putting aside the first 10 years of my life which movies I can't really remember much about (besides The Power Rangers Movie, which in my opinion is the BEST. MOVIE. EVAH.), I've just spent a mere 13 years watching movies, which isn't that many movies if you think about it.

As a viewer, an avid movie goer, as a fan, I'm not asking for much, I just want movies with substance, not some second rate rip-offs with scripts so sad I wish I'd burn the money I paid for tickets instead. But it's not all bad, from time to time, Hollywood does produce movies which will be discussed for many, MANY years and that's a good thing.

Local shows however, are not so fortunate. Malaysian movies, in general, suck. A 1 hour 30 minutes of a bunch of talentless wannabe actors strutting around talking in a language so rojak-ed its an embarrassment to foreigners who watch it.

Let me put things into perspective.

The shows are so bad that getting shot in the head would seem like a liberation.

The shows are so bad that suddenly vomiting blood and dying is God showing He loves you.

The shows are so bad it'll make you sick. Like Twilight.

The shows are so bad you'll consider the fastest ways to kill yourself so you don't have to suffer.

The shows are so bad your eyes will bleed for a week. If you're lucky.

The shows are so bad that you'll watch True Blood. For the story and SKIP the boobies scenes.

The shows are so bad that there's no word in the English language to describe the level of retardedness that you'll go through.

The shows are so bad you'd gouge your eyes so you'll never have to watch shit like that ever again.

Honestly, what the hell are these bastards thinking?

Chapter 295 - Blogging & Stuff

2010-10-03T12:36:00.002+08:00

I should blog more frequently.

At least that's what Nin told me.

I figure I should start learning how to write properly first before.

In lighter news, I was on the Internet and I found this.

Chapter 294 - Glasses With No Lens

2010-09-15T13:45:00.005+08:00

Apparently there's this new fashion boom just like popped collars. Only this time, it's a bit higher up.

Probably somebody thought wearing glasses was cool. Then somebody else (probably a friend of the first idiot) thought wearing one without lens would be better. Thus it began, the 'glasses with no frames era', or as I like to call it, the 'dumber than dumb generation'.

People who wear glasses without lens suck. You're stupid, retarded and got cheated by the companies making glasses frames. You wanna trade? My short-sighted eyes for your 20-20 vision ones?

This is what I think of your fashion sense (to whom it may concern).

You wearing those are like monks buying a condom.

You wearing those are like buying wheels for helicopters.

You wearing those are like blind people buying a television.

You wearing those are like kids searching for porn in YouTube.

You wearing those are like flying without wings. Note: You cannot fly without wings. You will die. Painfully.

You wearing those is like studying AFTER your exams.

You wearing those is like thinking you're a good dancer just cause you dance in a night club.

You wearing those are like how Malaysians think they can make a good movie.

You wearing those are like believing in the local government.

You wearing those are like a fat guy trying to do gymnastics.

The similar conclusion for all those is that they serve no purpose in any way whatsoever.

Here's something visual that would show you how much you've failed in case you didn't understand anything I just wrote (it's okay, I don't blame you, you're just stupid).

Chapter 293 - My 1 Terabyte Monster

2010-09-15T13:39:00.002+08:00

I bought my 1TB ~~Sexternal~~ External Hard Disk Drive about a year ago. Today, I saw this.

God damn it. Who knew porn would be so heavy on the hard drive.

Chapter 292 - Out Of Blogging

2010-09-14T10:48:00.003+08:00

I've been so preoccupied with other things these days that I don't spend any of my time blogging anymore. That being said, I figured I should update at least a little bit before my blog becomes a distant speck.

Also, I've figured out the perfect gift for any girl.

Furrealz.

Chapter 291 - Birthday Present From Me, To Me!

2010-07-19T20:47:00.003+08:00

For my birthday this year, I got myself a present again.

2 years ago, I got myself a Sony PSP.

Last year, I got myself an iPhone 2G.

This year, I got myself a t-shirt.

Not just ANY t-shirt.

I got myself a t-shirt of what I deem the best movie of the year. I paid RM129 for it.

Totally. Worth. It.

Chapter 290 - Photobomb

2010-07-18T18:35:00.006+08:00

What is photobomb?

According to Urban Dictionary:
1. To drop in a photo unexpectedly.
2. Any time the background of a picture hijacks the original focus.

That being said, here's some.

That guy in the back there works with me.

Uh.. Right.

And last but most CERTAINLY not least, here's James ~~Bomb~~ Bond doing a photobomb on Taylor Swift.

Check out the stache.

Chapter 289 - Expecting Help Is Pointless

2010-07-04T23:37:00.002+08:00

I should be smart enough to learn that expecting ANYTHING from people is a stupid move at best. I need to nail it into my thick frigging skull.

Too bad there's no 'Cmd+Alt+Esc' button in life.

Or if you're a Windows user, 'Ctrl+Alt+Del'.

Now, more than ever, I wish I'm not where I am now.

Chapter 288 - A Movie Like No Other

2010-04-27T09:39:00.003+08:00

It's been so long since I've watched a movie where I came out of the cinema smiling like a kid. Too long. That was, until last night.

I'm an avid movie goer. I love movies and I love watching movies on that huge screen. This year, I've watched quite a few new movies, some decent, others worse than what I expected. But this movie - by God, this movie - was an ass-kicking load of fun. The show's plot, action and theme is just the perfect blend of comedy, action, drama and love with a whole lot of blood spilling. There's also a lot of references to modern pop culture which people who watch enough ass-kicking movies will get.

I could talk loads about this movie but in the end, it'll keep coming back to just how fucking awesome this movie was. I have no regrets watching this movie - unlike Legion - and too bad the show we watched was the last one for the night and today I'm heading back to campus. But if I could, I'd go watch that movie again. It was THAT fucking good. I don't wanna spoil the movie for those who haven't watched it but if you haven't watched it, here's my advice:

Go. Watch. Kick. Ass.

Best. Superhero. Movie. Ever.

I know it's still late April and there's a whole lot of other movies coming out this year but for me, Kick Ass is the movie of the year.

Chapter 287 - Another Trip To KL

2010-04-15T13:26:00.002+08:00

So, last Friday I took a trip down to KL to meet my lady. All in all a good trip. Except for the part where I nearly died. Here's my story.

So, this trip wasn't actually 'reported' to my parents, I told them I was heading back to university but I hitched a ride with my cousin down on his 'no-plans' road trip. 3 persons in the car, my cousin, me and his friend. Both of them are doctors.

Me, sitting in the back, just closed my eyes for a few minutes, not yet falling asleep, felt the car swerving and hear the car going through gravel. I opened my eyes and saw the car just going crazy. Apparently, my cousin who was driving first fell asleep at the wheel while going at 100+km/h. After that incident, which made my balls of steel shrank, I just went blank in my head.

I drove after that with nothing but the incident replaying in my head.

Dear God, thank you for everything.

PS... I AM ALIVE!

Chapter 286 - Boredom Kills

2010-04-08T12:45:00.001+08:00

I'm bored. Really bored. I should be doing the last assignment for this semester. But I'm not. Instead, I'm idling.

Nom nom nom...

Chapter 285 - The Specs Effect

2010-03-20T13:13:00.001+08:00

Chapter 284 - Best Uplifting Video

2010-03-20T12:49:00.000+08:00

Self-explanatory video.

Chapter 283 - Carbon Fiber

2010-03-17T11:31:00.003+08:00

Carbon fiber, strong as steel and like really light, used mainly for cars in racing and sports cars and stuff.

USD$150, a pair of carbon fiber chopsticks with the rest. It's non-toxic and dishwasher-safe. It's also something you can do without.

Taken from here.

Chapter 282 - My Niu Wallpaper

2010-03-17T11:21:00.002+08:00

Been having a rally craving lately and just found this on the hunt.

Chapter 281 - Update

2010-03-16T15:35:00.002+08:00

This is my update after a long time of not updating.

I'm busy and I don't have much time to update.

Bye.

I must not goof off.

Chapter 280 - I Want To Go KL

2010-02-09T16:07:00.005+08:00

I want to go to KL.

Just to be with Grace.

Cause I miss her.

It's been quite some time since I actually felt like this, so don't mind the lovey-dovey road my blogging is taking. I just really love this girl.

Chapter 279 - Avatar In News

2010-02-01T09:21:00.002+08:00

I don't get it. I paid RM17 to watch Avatar in 3D cause it was apparently very good. I don't get it. The graphics is top notch and the effort James Cameron made to ensure the 3D experience is excellent.

The question that bugs me is this:
Why the hell does the movie with a plot so thin can draw such a big crowd? Or perhaps is the pricing for watching a movie in 3D aiding to break the world record?

All I know for sure is I felt that Avatar was overrated. If you have an opinion (that means you, Kok Hsien), do tell me, I'm very much interested ~~to pretend~~ to listen about it.

Chapter 278 - In A Relationship

2010-01-20T18:55:00.002+08:00

I'm in a relationship now. I'm still not used to it, but it's refreshing. I like her. A LOT.

She's cute.

And she knows it.

I'm fat.

And I know it.

Chapter 277 - James Cameron's Avatar

2010-01-18T15:05:00.003+08:00

I just watched Avatar Saturday night. In 3D. The movie had one of the lamest stories you can think of. As Julian said before, it's just Pocahontas, just more glorified and in a bigger scale.

That being said, the movie had graphics to make up for the lack of story. Oh my god, the graphics. They were A-fucking-mazing. I'd say James Cameron outdid himself once again. Great graphics that can make you go 'waffak?' when you watch it. That being said, I think he might have a few screws loose when he came up with the idea of having a Na'vi sex scene.

Chapter 275 - Roommate

2010-01-11T02:06:00.003+08:00

I've been in university and have been living in campus for 3 years now. I've had my share of 'unique' roommates. None have come close to what I have to suffer through now.

He snores like a pig, doesn't respect a person's privacy, digs through my stuff when I'm not around and now, a latest addition to his list, smelling like something died.

If you think you got a bad roommate, you should take this mofo out for a spin.

Chapter 274 - 2010

2010-01-01T11:43:00.002+08:00

This is my first post of the year 2010. There's so much I wanna rant about but I don't know where to start, so I'll just say "HAPPY NEW YEAR" first.

Happy New Year!!!

My new year resolution is to be awesome, just like 2009.

Chapter 271 - 2009 In A Random List

2009-12-26T11:09:00.016+08:00

Here's what I learned and discovered in 2009. *In no particular order.

1. I love technology more than ever. It changes non-stop, recreating something new, one after another, and never has a dull moment.

2. I began my love affair with Apple and their products by finally getting my hands on an ~~iPhone~~ iBone 2G 8GB.

3. I attended AIESEC's International Congress 2009 in Palace of the Golden Horses. It was amazing.

4. I met some of the nicest people I'll come to know. Those who read this, you know who you are.

*photo unrelated*

5. Nin came back!! YAY! I finally got someone who's almost as crazy and me and random!

6. I became part of the Organizing Committee for MyLDS (Malaysian Leadership Development Seminar) 09 and I don't regret a single moment of it.

7. I still hate and can't trust people.

8. I fell for a girl which I...

9. I started smoking again.

10. I started drinking again.

11. Mafia Wars is fun.

12. Metal is TEH best music ever. Nuff' said.

2010, here I come.

Chapter 270 - New Template

2009-12-21T18:49:00.005+08:00

So, today is my off day off work, and most likely one of my last posts till Christmas. I got bored earlier and just started hunting for a new template for my blog, so I came across the current one I'm using which I felt was rather fitting, you know, Christmas and all. So, anyways, I don't have THAT much free time in the next few days, as I WILL be working my ass of at my minimum wage job.

Hopefully I can 1UP my sales to boost my end-of-year paycheck. I hate being broke.

Chapter 268 - Christmas 2009

2009-12-16T09:57:00.006+08:00

In conjunction with the upcoming Christmas holidays, here's what I found.

Lily was traveling to Tel Aviv. For some reason, the Israeli security officers thought she was suspicious. So they put three bullets through her MacBook.

Lily says:
Then they asked me to wait. Since they had asked for friends and families phone numbers I assumed they might be calling to verify my answers to questions or confirm I really had extended family in Tel Aviv. An announcement played over the sound system, interrupting my break in the sunshine. First in Hebrew, then Arabic, then in English. It was something along the lines of, "do not to be alarmed by gunshots because the Israeli security needs to blow up suspicious passanger luggage."

I went inside to check on my bag. I had left it unattended, where they instructed. It was still there so I went back outside.

Moments later a man came outside and introduced himself as the manager on duty. And then, "I'm sorry but we had to blow up your laptop."

Fortunately for all of her data, they missed the hard drive. Now she's trying to figure out how to get the Israeli government to reimburse her for her swiss cheese laptop. Be sure to read the full story over at her blog.

Chapter 267 - Nobody Remembers

2009-12-14T20:05:00.004+08:00

Today I received a text message from a friend whom I befriended during last year's MyLDS (Malaysian Leadership Development Seminar) '08 in Universiti Putra Malaysia.

Angelyn quit being an AIESECer (formerly from Taylor's University College's Local Committee) not long after due to her busy schedule, but I did consistently 'kacau' her with texts and online chatting and whatnot. 1 year has already passed since then. She's now back home relaxing and enjoying her holiday. I dropped her a text asking her how she's doing and telling her it was a shame I couldn't play host to her. She then pointed out that apparently I was the only one who consistently kept in touch with since the conference ended.

It's just how things usually end up, sure, there are those which create a new friendship and more, but more often than not, many of these friendships will inevitably deteriorate and fade into the dust and the next time they cross paths, it'll be either one of these two scenarios, you'll walk past each other not knowing who the other person is, OR, if you're lucky, the person will shake your hand and give you a hug.

~~But don't bet on the latter, cause people are backstabbing lying bastards who will suck the soul out of you, eat it up, vomit it out and piss on it.~~

Don't mind me though, I'm just ranting.

Chapter 266 - MyLDS 2009

2009-12-13T08:24:00.002+08:00

I just came back from one of my most memorable AIESEC experience. It didn't matter that I had little to no sleep, it didn't matter that I had to drive all around town in UUM, one of my most hated place in the world. It was all worth it, every single moment of it, the good, the bad, the painful.

I can't really put the things I want to say into words, but here's me trying. If they're reading this, I'd wanna thank my entire Organizing Committee team, without whom, the entire MyLDS would probably never come to be. Wei Mun, you're the best OC President a person could ask for, and you're amazing, thank you for everything, I really can't describe how amazing and cool you are. The rest of the OC, you're all equally important, just because I didn't mention your name doesn't make you any less significant in this experience. There's been times where I felt like I could just fail in my endeavors but there was always people there giving me moral and physical support, Seok Chien, Darren, Xian², Andy, Li Ling, Kalai, Raymond, Tatt Soon, Peck Ching, Shey Man, Rou Lin, Hooi Ling, Yen Ching, Pei Yun, Siew Hong, Seng Chien and last, but definitely not least, Wei Mun. Thank you for everything guys (and girls), my life will definitely always have a special place for this.

There's also the other people who made my day, my delegates from Taylor's University College. I wouldn't take back a single moment of it, running all around, going bonkers and being consistently fired and hired. I'm sorry for those I did not have a chance to send sugar cubes to. It's not that you guys didn't matter, I just didn't have enough time and I truthfully can't remember everyone's name. Take care guys, till the strings of fate entwine our next encounter, you're the best!

I'd like to apologize to those I might have wronged or offended and know that I sincerely didn't mean for it to happen. I sometimes, more often than not, say things that I don't really mean when emotions flare.

Love you guys to the max!! Even though you guys forgot me during the OC picture, I'll forgive you guys.

Take care guys, till we meet again.

Enjoy the recap video, for those who missed it.

Chapter 258 - I Literally LOLed At Myself

2009-11-07T02:06:00.004+08:00

So, I bought dinner earlier, nasi lemak and I was watching ~~Friends~~ a TV show and I was eating on my bed. So, I was looking for a piece of paper or something to put my nasi lemak on. I found a piece of file thing so I used it.

Which brings me to this story, about a month ago, I headed on down to KL for AIESEC's International Congress. They had free gifts for the delegates (that's the fancy names they used for people who attended the congress). There were chocolates, biscuits, beer and some rubber there. You know, for protection and whatnot.

Which brings me back to the first story. So, after using the piece of file, only then did I find out what the file was. It was one of the files which came along with the condoms they were giving out during the conference.

So... Yeah.. I had my dinner today on a piece of file explaining how condoms are made and the quality of the condoms the company makes. Appropriate? Not so much.

Chapter 257 - Men & Breasts

2009-11-05T16:27:00.006+08:00

Article taken from here (mostly).

According to German research published in New England Journal of Medicine, men staring at women's breasts in fact prolong their lives with years.

"Just 10 minutes of looking at the charms of a well-endowed females is equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out," said author Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist.

The team led by Weatherby was made up of researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany, and found this results after monitoring for 5 years the health of 200 male subjects, half of whom were asked to look at busty females daily, while the other half had to abstain from doing so.

For five years, the breasts oglers presented a lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and decreased risk of coronary artery disease.

"Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There's no question: Gazing at large breasts makes men healthier. Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half." said Weatherby, who even recommends that men aged over 40 should spend at least 10 minutes daily admiring breasts sized "D-cup" or larger.

Well, men (and women), look at breasts, then:

Looking at breasts is as healthy as going to the gym for 30 minutes daily and prolonged a man's life by five years.

Note : I don't know where gay people falls into this.

Though.. I myself am more of a ass person.

Yup, can't go wrong there.

Chapter 256 - Finals Semester 5

2009-11-01T13:05:00.000+08:00

Its time for my final exams for my fifth out of eight semesters.

I should study.

I know I should.

But I'm out here chilling and not giving a crap.

I should study.

Right after watching a movie.

Chapter 255 - Uselessness 101

2009-10-21T12:41:00.001+08:00

Have you ever had to work with incompetent people before? I have and I still am. I'm in this group with a bunch of dumbasses and I personally never knew my luck would actually be SO bad that I somehow managed to end up in the same group which is ENTIRELY populated by incompetence, minus me, of course, cause, let's face it, I'm just awesome.

I could rant on about how incompetent they are by not knowing what they're researching in the group project and also about how NOT knowledgeable these people are (and they probably wonder why they don't have much friends) BUT I don't want to bore myself typing this. I seriously think I should start to have a screening process before I get into a group, otherwise, I'll just work by myself. People suck anyways.

Chapter 254 - 1Toilet

2009-10-15T15:27:00.002+08:00

I was reading the paper a little while ago and apparently the Terrenganu government is suggesting that teachers and students in school share a toilet.

Say what you want but I've got a feeling sodomy cases are gonna be all the rage if this shit actually gets approved.

Chapter 253 - Burgers

2009-10-02T11:44:00.008+08:00

Here's the 12 best burgers from "The Cheeseburger Show" (and people wonder why American's number 1 sources of deaths is obesity related sicknesses).

1 - The Grafton
Tribune photo by Kevin Pang / May 6, 2009)
USDA choice sirloin patty + Labriola Bakery pretzel roll + fried onions + mesclun greens + curry mayo + even more curry sauce on the side = luscious, juicy, break-apart-in-quality meat, prescription for hangover cure.

2 - Hot Chocolate
(Tribune photo by Kevin Pang / August 25, 2009)
Coarsely ground Heartland Meats beef + Gunthorp Farms bacon + Carr Valley six-year aged cheddar + Mindy Segal's brioche bun + fried egg with yolk overflowing = A cheeseburger breakfast of champions.

3 - Sola
(Tribune photo by Kevin Pang / August 25, 2009)
Wagyu beef from Oregon + house-cured bacon + arugula + Cambozola blue brie cheese + caramelized onions with pineapple juice and rendered bacon fat + pretzel bun = Balanced, complex burger with sweet, blue, savory flavor profiles working in concert.

4 - The Capital Grille
(Tribune photo by Michael Zajakowski / August 25, 2009)
Sirloin beef mixed with bacon, Havarti cheese and onions inside + house-made toasted onion rolls = Porcine-smokiness-whiff in beef, saving precious chewing time by combining main ingredients.

5 - Top Notch
(Tribune photo by Abel Uribe / April 8, 2009)
Beef cut fresh from side of cattle on-site + toasted sesame roll + grilled onions = Classic beefy, manly American burger with meat so fresh you can hear the moo.

6 - Sweets & Savories
(Tribune photo by Kevin Pang / May 15, 2009)
American Kobe-style beef + foie gras pate + arugula + black truffle mayo + truffle oil + toasted brioche roll = The most luxurious, rich, insane burger you've ever set lips upon.

7 - Paradise Pup
(Tribune photo by John Dziekan / April 29, 2005)
Ground chuck + flames from a charcoal grill + Merkt's crock cheddar spread + grilled onions + challah egg bun = A burger similar to one grilled in your backyard, except better, with the added sharpness of Merkt's cheese.

8 - Carmine's (Rosebud Burger)
(Tribune photo John Dziekan / May 6, 2005)
Prime ground beef + pretzel roll + housemade spicy ketchup = Like buttah. Like a big freakin' stick of buttah.

9 - David Burke's Primehouse
(Courtesy of David Burke's Primehouse)
Potato roll + 40-day dry aged beef patty + crispy shallots + garlicky spinach + bacon mayo = Steakhouse on a bun, maybe best beef patty in city.

10 - Schoop's
(Tribune photo by Kevin Pang / May 1, 2009)
Steak flattened to a crisped edge + 5-inch white hamburger bun + American cheese = Saturn-in-appearance burger with a deliciously beefy, crispy "skin" you'd nibble around first (or save for last).

11 - Labriola Bakery Cafe
(Tribune photo by Bill Hogan / August 23, 2009)
What makes this burger one of the best? Nueske's bacon, pretzel bun, caramelized onions and an 80/20 lean-meat-to-fat Angus beef patty that's cooked on a griddle with about a quarter-stick of butter.

12 - Kuma's Corner
(Tribune photo by Chris Walker / September 16, 2008)
Kuma's pretzel bun behemoths, from Highland Baking Co. in Northbrook, are so, so tasty. Its namesake patty comes topped with a fried egg, and it offers about 21 other varieties of burgers.

Chapter 252 - My Roommates & Me

2009-09-30T23:24:00.002+08:00

At home, I don't share my room with anybody. Things have been that way since I was like 13, so coming into campus to share my room with 3 other people I don't know all that well can be counted as something I don't really enjoy.

So, for the 4 semesters prior to this, I've had weird, strange, friendly, irritating roommates, but I'm gonna concentrate on my current one, cause none of them prior to this, though irritating, were as interesting as these ones.

3 persons besides myself, 2 Sikh guys and 1 Indian guy.

The Indian guy roomie can listen to the SAME LAME Malaysian Hip-Hop song on repeat for days (I stopped counting after 1-2 weeks). Other than that, he's pretty normal. The whole song thing I can actually deal with, earphones was created for this very reason.

The other two guys however, are on a wholeeee other level.

Guy number 1 (lets call him that), really has issues. He is always on the phone, ALWAYS and is always talking. I talk a lot, and if I tell you he talks a LOT, it means he REALLLLLY talks a lot. He's talking with someone from home I suppose cause he's speaking in some language I cannot comprehend and he talks like an old lady. The whole peace and quiet thing doesn't really apply to this guy, which is why I've been pretty quiet since the Raya holidays ended so he doesn't talk to me.

Guy number 2 is more funny than irritating. He's Sikh, as I said earlier, and I think he might be sick. Either that or he hit his head somewhere while growing up cause when I hear him speak in English, or Malay for that matter, he has a weird slang. Not just any slang. A Chinese slang. It gets even better when I'm talking with him, cause I subconsciously get sucked into speaking in that slang. He doesn't have much friends who are ~~sick~~ Sikh and the group of friends which come and find him are Chinese. I get where he gets the slang from, but... how do you get that Engrish slang when all you're speaking with this group of friends are.. MALAY??

Chapter 251 - UUM On Fire

2009-09-29T03:52:00.002+08:00

Oh, how I wish that this hellhole would burn to the ground one day. I'll be preparing to come here for class after an amazing weekend back home when I get the news, UUM has burned to the ground. I'll smile and cry tears of joy. That day however, is not today.

Today, the 'geniuses' running this hellhole decided to conduct a fire drill. At 1.30am. Chances they suddenly decided to do this is probably cause of some fire accident during the last semester break which razed my college's cafe/office.

How did the 'geniuses' start? They turned off the power to everything.

I MEAN EVERY FUCKING THING IN THIS GOD-FORSAKEN HELLHOLE THEY CALL A RESIDENTIAL FUCKING COLLEGE.

Then, everyone was asked to move to the field, where some fucking training shit was to be done. IN THE FUCKING DARK.

I couldn't stay in the crowd so I bailed, took my friend's bike and headed to another college to chill with my friend.

After I came back, apparently somebody fell into a drain somewhere in the dark and fainted.

Nice work, smart ass.

Chapter 250 - My Funeral

2009-09-23T03:36:00.002+08:00

It has been over a year now that I've blogged, about no things in particular, just random stuff. This, once again, is one of those random stuff.

Yup, 250 chapters later and I've still not yet run out of crap to talk about.

Just a short while ago, I read an article about the passing of Yoshito Usui, the manga artist who drew the highly popular Crayon Shin Chan, after a hiking accident.

This got me thinking on just how fragile life is and what I want to happen in the off chance I do get off-ed.

First things first, I don't want that conventional funerals people have, where everyone is crying, wearing some sad, dull colored clothes, not awesome food (I wanna say bad, but that's disrespectful for people who actually like those food), sad music and prayers all day long.

No, I want an awesome party. Great music, people having fun, great food and for the love of God, please, no crying. I mean, if there's a farewell party for someone leaving to a far place, you won't cry, rather, you'd let them go with a blast. A memorable event. I mean, I don't know if I'll be there to be part of the celebration (spiritually), but heck, I know I like fun, and sadness just ain't really my thing.

I think more people will be happier to just come by and have some fun than to just come by and weep before they leave. Besides, its not like you'll never see me again, right? Chances are that I'm gonna be seeing you in hell soon enough.

If there are effigy burnings and offerings, I want mutton, lamb chops, fried chicken wings, steamed fish and chocolates. I ~~absofuckinglutely~~ love chocolates. Ideal drinks would be a good glass of teh tarik, a cold glass of vanilla milkshake and don't forget the booze (ideally, I want whiskey, good one, no being cheap at this funeral). Oh, a pack of cigs wouldn't hurt.

Cremation would be the preferred method to dispose of my worldly remains, after which, pouring into the sea on a bright sunny day where everyone who's disposing saying, "Bye YuV, ~~smell~~ see you later".

In fact, since I'm dead and all, it wouldn't be bad to sugarcoat the farewell wish a bit more. Maybe something like, "Bye YuV, the awesome and amazingly good looking, friendliest person I know who's now dead ~~in which case even if I lie about this it wouldn't matter~~".

So, I once again say, if I do hit the sack to never wake up again, please do me a favor and see to it my AWESOME last wishes are granted.

Chapter 249 - Hard Rock Hotel PENANG

2009-09-21T15:43:00.003+08:00

So, I visited the NEW Hard Rock HOTEL Penang, the first Hard Rock Hotel in Malaysia (WOOT WOOT!).

I don't have a big shiny DSLR at my disposal so I had to make do with my iBone's 2 Megapixel camera.

I'm gonna let the photos speak for itself.

Headed down there with my nephew/cousin/relative Nav.

Chapter 248 - Malaysia's Clubbing 'Scene'

2009-09-20T00:39:00.003+08:00

Malaysia's clubbing scene is like a funeral.

There's people, there's music, there's booze, but nobody's dancing and everyone just hangs around people they came there with 90% of the time.

That's at least true in Mois, as I've discovered like half an hour ago.

Reminded me why I don't go clubs to drink.

Chapter 247 - Facebook Addiction

2009-09-18T10:44:00.002+08:00

I use facebook, as do many of my friends, all FIVE HUNDRED AND THREE of them.

I spend a lot of time on facebook. Too much time, perhaps.

But I'm not addicted (I think) to facebook.

Can't say the same for this guy though.

Just a side note, to all ye potential criminals, sometimes, a little discretion can go a long way.

Chapter 246 - Of Mutton & Temple

2009-09-17T21:37:00.002+08:00

So, I just came back earlier, posted about watching The Ugly Truth with Nin and my cousin, teh uber f1icker Nav, called me to go temple to go and eat mutton, cause there's this temple near where I live, which somebody he (my cousin) knew that potong goat.

Basically, if you wanna eat fresh mutton, it don't get any fresher than this. So I went on down to the temple to go and eat.

From the rate that things are going, I'm just securing a seat in hell for my ass, cause I have no visited the temple in AGES and now I'm all over the place for some non-vegetarian food.

I'm so d00med.

Chapter 245 - The Ugly Truth

2009-09-17T17:56:00.003+08:00

I just came back to Penang yesterday evening from the hell-on-earth that is UUM and I've done many things that makes me a Penang-ite (Aiiiiiiiiiiteeee). Among those things are:
1) Eat ikan bakar (barbeque-ed fish)
2) Eat char hor fun
3) Watch movie in the middle of the day

And that movie, as the title says, is "Teh Ugly Truth".

Went to watch this with Nin earlier today. That being said, thanks Nin for going to watch this movie, with me. Again. Even though you already watched it. :)

Nice movie. Like the way Gerard Butler acted, and no need to mention about Katherine Heigl. Something about her that makes me go, "HMMMMM....". I have no idea what, but I do.

I could describe the movie, but the script is pretty simple, boy meets girl, etc, etc, but there are certain parts in the movie which are just really good. Should catch it.

The YuV approves.

Chapter 244 - A Little Joke

2009-09-13T16:55:00.000+08:00

Just something to brighten up your day.

Mr. & Mrs. Ng have 3 lovely daughters; Elaine, Ena & Ella.

The 3 daughters were brought up in a prim-and-proper way and when they reached 20, they were still virgins.
Years passed, and it was time to get them married.

So, the parents found them the most suitable ' leng chais' (handsome guys). They got married and were preparing to set-off on their honeymoon.

As 'concerned' (more like 'kay-poh') parents, Mr.& Mrs. Ng were curious about their daughters' first-night experience.
So, before the daughters went on their respective honeymoons, Mrs. Ng told them......'Your father and I want to know about your 1st night encounters and whether you are satisfied.
Write a letter to us, but as not to raise your husbands' curiosity...you
all must use a code-name to describe your experiences'.

So, the excited daughters were off. A week passed.
Mr. & Mrs. Ng got the first letter. It was from Elaine.
They opened the letter and found the word STANDARD CHARTERED.
They immediately took the newspaper and looked for the Standard Chartered advertisement.
'Ah! here it is!', exclaimed Mr. Ng. The motto for Standard Chartered
was... 'BIG, STRONG & FRIENDLY'
Mr & Mrs. Ng were happy.

A week later, they got another letter.
This time it was from Ena.
The content was simple. 'NESCAFE'.
So, again they took the newspaper and looked for the Nescafe ad.
'Ah! here it is. 'NESCAFE: PLEASURE TILL THE LAST DROP'. Mr. & Mrs. Ng beamed with joy.

Another week passed. A month passed. And another. There was still no letter from Ella. The Ngs became worried.
Finally, the letter came. It was scribbled and could hardly be read, but
Mrs. Ng managed to figure it out.
The code-name was ' SINGAPORE AIRLINES'.
Why Singapore Airlines? Mr.Ng rushed to the nearest store and got a newspaper. He flipped the pages frantically.
'Ah! Here it is!' Mrs. Ng grabbed the page and read aloud.
Before she could finish .......THUMP!!!...she fell off her chair.
The motto was ...'7 DAYS A WEEK. 4 TO 6 TIMES A DAY. NON-STOP'.

Chapter 243 - How Low Can You Go

2009-09-13T09:57:00.002+08:00

Honestly, how low CAN you go? My already minimum wage job is making that tiny amount of money I'm earning even smaller. First there was the whole deal about sales needing to be of a certain figure to get some "special" bonus, and then now, there's the deal with the reduced iPod commissions. Actually, the whole commissions deal isn't that big a deal, it was never THAT much to begin with, but there's always the nice thought you're getting a little bit of something whenever you do close a sales but now, its just getting lower and lower and before I know it, I'm not even gonna be motivated to go do sales anymore.

But that's just me though.

I think I gotta start selling weed or something to be making more money.

Chapter 242 - Techie

2009-09-07T17:28:00.003+08:00

I've been indulging myself in my gadget ~~fetish~~ hobbies over the past few years, getting myself 2 cellphones, a Nokia N70, an Apple ~~iPhone~~iBone, upgrading my computer peripherals, like a new set of headphones and earphones, and a 1TB Western Digital External Hard Disk Drive (which I've managed to fill half up within two weeks).

Now, I've got my eyes on another gadget. A new camera. So I can indulge in the joy of photography, a little bit of camwhoring and that occasional stalker-ish photo taking that I see many people seem to enjoy.

If everything goes the same way I shopped for my other toys, it'll be 4-5 months of research and window shopping and approximately a year before the thing actually ends up in my hands for me to use. Cause I'm always broke.

I need a higher paying job.

Chapter 241 - Asus EEE PC

2009-08-29T13:36:00.010+08:00

Well, I think many already know I'm an Asus laptop user and I'm not shy to say that I lub my lil' lappy berry berry much. I also think that many has also heard of the ASUS EEE PC netbooks which started the whole netbook craze.

Personally, I never cared much about netbooks cause for me, Performance>Looks. Sure, the EEE PC looks cool and all but I never really thought much of spending money on it.

Then I saw this.

Mmmm... Nice, nice. The ~~girls~~ netbooks I mean. I might get me one of those if they come like that.

Chapter 240 - AIESEC International Congress 2009 Global Village

2009-08-26T22:33:00.009+08:00

Last week, August 21st morning, I got up with a hangover, and prepped to leave to KL for AIESEC's International Congress Global Village.

The moment I got of the bus, I headed on down to Lowyat Plaza to get me a 1TB Western Digital My Book Essential. Yes, I FINALLY got me a big enough hard disk drive for my movies and ~~porn~~ stuffs.

Anyways, after which I spent the day watching Up in 3D. That's 1 MORE D than what I usually watch!!

Anyways, the following day, was a great day, met a lot of people, old friends, new friends, people I've met before but never knew who they were till last Saturday.

Here's a few photos that I took with my iBone. :)

Well, that's that. I could probably come up with something to say but I've got nothing in my head now but static. So take care now, bye bye then.

Chapter 237 - District 9, A Place Better Left Unstepped In

2009-08-14T00:09:00.004+08:00

District 9, a movie about prawns.

No, not THAT prawn, ALIEN prawns.

Anyways, its about some alien prawn squatters which decided to conveniently land on earth, in Johannesburg, South Africa for some weird unknown reason and just take a 20-year vacation on earth. So after the usual conspiracy mumbo jumbo, some guy gets mysteriously changed into an alien, earth goes "OMFG, THEY CAN DO THAT?" and 2 hours later, I still know as little as when the movie started.

The way they handled this is weird though. The people there took in these aliens and made a squatter zone for them to live in. As far as I know, if they landed in some country in Asia, say.... China.

This would most likely be the prawns' fate.

All in all, don't waste your money, that money you're about to pay for this movie, is better off spent on eating a real prawn.

Or better still, getting yourself some porn. That works too.

Chapter 236 - Ouch, That Must've Hurt

Here's a bit of this year's Teen Choice Awards that was edited out by FOX.

Why was it edited out by FOX?

Well, I think everyone already knows how Vanessa Hudgens' nude pics she's been taking and got 'leaked'(they say leaked, but for all I know, she could the one 'leaking' it out herself, but, I'm not complaining) all over the internet.

Dane Cook, who saw the chance, took it and shot her IN TEH FACE about it.

Check out the vid.

Behold, fools, the return of Iron Man.

I thought I'd be posting about something big in this post.

I thought I would.

Then I got bored.

Then I just started typing these random crap.

Then I find out some people actually read these crap.

Then I thought I should do something to make up for the people who are bothered enough to read my nonsensical posts.

So I found this.

You want something EPIC?

I'll show you EPIC.

This is EPIC.

You want something LEGENDARY?

I'll show you LEGENDARY.

THIS IS LEGENDARY.

Chapter 232 - Mac Lab@UUM

2009-08-07T10:41:00.005+08:00

A couple of days ago, there's was a PC Fair in UUM. Coincidentally, the IT department in UUM requested for a training session for Mac Familiarization and Maintainence for the staff there. Because I'm already here, and Switch had somebody coming over to conduct the training, I headed on down with Ching Hou to check out the Mac Lab which I've heard so much about.

This was what I was greeted with.

40 pieces of Apple's PowerMac G5 and 40 units of Apple Studio Displays. From a rough estimation, I'd guess the lab cost roughly half a million to build.
*Software not included*

As I was sitting in the lab listening to Kant give these middle-aged mofos super basic training, I began to wonder: What is the purpose of a lab so advanced in here, when the people in charge of managing it can't even work it?

I think they're just finding an excuse for them to spend money. I'm a Mac lover, for sure, and seeing these PowerMacs lying around, being used by a group of monkeys just pains my heart.

Chapter 230 - UUM In Fear

2009-07-26T18:35:00.003+08:00

Dearly beloved,

We are gathered here today to mourn on the upcoming passing of the UUM students whom are suspected of contracting the H1N1 swine flu virus. For those who are going to die, I'd like to say that you'll be remembered. That being said however, I'm almost definitely NOT the one who'll be doing the remembering. In fact, I don't think you'll be remembered that long. You'll probably be just another digit on the counter of those who died in the deadly pig virus pandemic.

So for those who'd like to know how all this began, please refer to the photo below for the detailed horrific story on how this began.

Rest In ~~Pigs~~ ~~Piss~~ Peace

Chapter 229 - Of Tasers & Terminators

2009-07-17T11:36:00.002+08:00

Apparently some dude who was high on LSD~~(Limited Slip Differential)~~ drugs and pot was caught running down the street in Nevada in his underwear.

Quote from Gizmodo:

A man found naked wandering along the Nevada border has been tased and arrested despite his claiming to be a Terminator sent from the future. We're a little upset that police would harm anybody this hilarious.

The 19-year-old, a Nevada native named Sean Stanley (we publish his name in hopes of honoring, not embarrassing, this hero) was wandering nude around the highway until he was ordered to stop by police—at which point he immediately headed into a crowded casino. He was tased by police there in the casino, in full view of a group of children (nudity and gambling, now there's a great family trip), despite his claims that he was a Terminator sent from the future, a wry reference to the Terminator films.

As it turns out, Stanley was actually stoned out of his mind on LSD and pot, though we don't have concrete evidence as of publication that he is not a Terminator. Stanley was charged with indecent exposure and resisting arrest by the police, and honored by us with the prestigious Tracy Morgan Award for Intoxicated Hilarity (hence the video accompanying this story). Congratulations, Sean! [Yahoo! via Geekologie]

Okay, I know advertising for a Mac on my own blog is a cheap move but hey, everyone needs to make a living, you know? So to those 3 people who inconsistently reads the manifestation that is my blog, I've gots a proposition for you.

Alright, actually, the plan is only applicable to students from UUM(my hellhole), USM(the uni which I was hoping to get into but didn't get), and UPM(the girls here are cute), but.... I have my ways to go around the small bump. If you're interested, seriously, tell me and I'll get you all briefed about the education program thing, and what is so good about a Mac. So good that for your good(yes, YOUR own good), I'm willing to take time to explain about it.

Take care now, bye bye then.

Almost everyone who pays attention to the world around them knows about this, and I can probably tell how some ~~idiots~~ friends of mine would be all psyched about this. So, for those of you who don't know, here you go. A real life feat by Japan, and kudos to them for recreating the dreams of the otaku(s) all around the world.

Chapter 223 - June 11th Fishing Trip

2009-06-13T08:27:00.007+08:00

So, I've finally hit the 22 year old mark. After work on the 10th of June, went out with Tye, Han & Ho(he doesn't usually join us, but he did this time). Went for makan and the usual, gaming - on Han's shiny PlayStation 3 (YuV: Ooooh... Shinyyy) - all the way till the wee hours of the night.

The nice thing this time around, is what happened after I went home. I slept in for a few hours, and woke up to my phone ringing at about 4am, a friend on the other end giving me a wake up call to prepare to go fishing.

Yes, this is my first time fishing and I was psyched. REALLY PSYCHED!! Only then I realised that we arrived too early and the person we were supposed to go with was still asleep. *smacks hand on head*

So after falling asleep in the car till about 6am, the guy finally arrived. So along we went, walking down the path beside the house to a riverfront, onto a fishing boat. Incidentally, our guide is the fisherman.

After they filled the boat with fish food and ice and whatnot, we left the dock to headed to the sea.

We initially planned to head to Pulau Aman but ended up fishing in the middle of the sea, on the raft which the fishermen use to keep fishes (I don't know what its called, LOL).

This is what I'm talking about.

Anyways, I'm proud to announce, even though it was my first time fishing, I caught the first fish of the day. Some fish which type and name eludes me. Here's a photo of it though.

A little later on, I caught a sting ray on the line. I swear, when I saw that thing dangling off the fishing line, the first and only thing that came to my mind was - "Don't end up like the crocodile hunter".

Here's some of the photos I took while I was on that whatchamacallit.

There's a lot of things to be updated, but I don't know if I'll actually go through updating all the things I want to say, so, for now, I'll just the photos do the talking.

The big shiny metallic durian called Esplanade.

I think the highlight of my trip to Singapore this time around was this, National Geographic Store, only two of such stores exist in the world, one is in London, another one is here, in Singapore. Amazing, simply, amazing.

More to come soon. Maybe.

Chapter 220 - On Holiday

2009-05-31T23:26:00.002+08:00

I'm on holiday in Johor, and have been visiting Singapore twice in the last two days.

The more I hang in Singapore, the more I wanna stay there. I look back and Malaysia and simply go - "Ah... Fuck."

Chapter 219 - A Loneliness Inexplicable By Words

2009-05-30T19:37:00.003+08:00

I want to be talking about my time I just spent walking around in Singapore after driving for 750+km non-stop from Penang to Johor.

But I won't.

Right now, words are empty. As am I.

Why?

I don't know.

I want to be blind so I can see things I've never seen before.

I want to be deaf so I can hear things I've never heard before.

I want to be mute so I can say the words I've never spoken before.

Chapter 218 - Sometimes, It Happens.

2009-05-26T21:09:00.002+08:00

You know every once in a while, when you're working, talking to customers and whatnot, this ignorant boob of a human shows up, and makes your minimum wage job's life a fucking living hell?

Yes?

I met one today. Well, actually I met that poor excuse of a human a couple of days ago.

Sometimes, just cause you got a wee bit of money, and you know how to blog, don't necessarily mean you can roll the world over to you. Apparently, Miss I'm-Too-Good-For-Everyone-Else didn't get the note.

I wasn't attending to her, but by God, I'd probably just walk away if I had to deal with the nonsense she was spouting out of her pie hole.

Oh well, she's damned for hell anyways, so, in the off chance that bitch whom I'm talking about reads this, I'll see you in hell.

PS... Its okay when you're a hot chick, but you can't even compare to the ass of a cow, so... deal with your own problems yourself you ignorant b00b.

Life has been pretty routine like for me, coming back home for the holidays, and working and sleeping at home and partying and more sleeping.

I need a hobby.

Or I need to get paid more.

Or I should just shoot myself in the mouth. Think Fight Club.

I came back home last Wednesday and am now rushing the hell to cramp 3 subjects into my noggin.
