"Sadness is Me"

Greetings.

Tonight is a sad one for me. Everyone's out - off to celebrate our beloved country's annual independence day.

While everyone's out, i'm left at home, caged. Nothing new especially with a mom whose role besides being a mom is also the prison warden as a secondary role. I seriously don't know whats her problem.

So here i am, with the fireworks started off, alone, sad, with nothing to do, but to play with balls.

Really. Balls.




Dad's new toy.


Dad's new toy.


My dad syok sendiri got himself a mini pool table. Its small, like the ones by bowling alley at 1U. Oh well, i'm not complaining.



Dad's new toy.


Last, but not least;


My old toy.



Its sad. Here i am, sitting in front of my PC while everyone's out celebrating Merdeka's eve. Its damn sickening to know that i was caged at home by my mom just because she think Merdeka's eve is something small and s' not worth going for.

Haihs. Thats her own preference, not mine.

Its really damn sad. To know that my friends are out enjoying the fireworks, the company, the atmosphere, the environment, while i'm just..at home, playing with balls and sitting front of my pc.

Damn thats sad.

Bee's out at the curve with her friends, and i'm not there to be with her :(






- take care and God bless, everyone.

"Un-Malaysian like Sebatian"

So, i am as un-Malaysian as Guy Sebatian. Uh-hum...Hmm, that rhymes.

I've been neglecting my blog for awhile. Nothing much to write about. Really. Or more like too lazy to write about something :)

So, what's been going on lately?


My one week sem break is over. Time to get adjusted. But for last week, i managed to intrude HELP's marketing lecture. I smuggled in with the help of Bee and Kwee. I brought my own work over there, did my own stuff.

Have to admit, i liked their seats though. Their lecture theatre is somewhat resembles a cinema seating concept. I like :)

Other than that, i've been trying to catch Nacho Libre but haven't had any luck. Things just keep getting delayed. Instead, i've watched Ant Bully, and Beneath Still Waters. And believe me, Beneath Still Water is NOT for the faint-hearted, big babies, or small kids.




Its really morbid and gory its just sick and freaky. Beneath Still Waters is really a horror film that should have remained underwater. We even walked out of the cinema with still half an hour to go for the show. Besides that, its boring and terrible. Not a very good show to watch. Not recommendable.

Anyway, here's just a brief synopsis of the movie;


Synopsis.

Based on a novel by Matthew Costello, the movie is set in a town that was submerged underwater, in an attempt to end the cult activity that thrived on the death and destruction of humans. Time passes, and the whispered secrets of the town have been long forgotten.


uh..dah mati.

But now, just before the 50th anniversary of the completion of the dam, the surrounding area is shocked by a mysterious death: a boy is torn apart by debris while diving in the lake. News reporter Teresa (Raquel Merono) and underwater photographer Dan (Michael McKell) don’t believe reports that the death was caused by sharks –– there’s something not right about that lake and it’s up to them to find out what.

And what they will soon find out is that the occult leader Salas (Patrick Gordon) has somehow risen from his sunken tomb and the town is now doomed to suffer the same fate as the one before it.

Directed by veteran horror director Brian Yuzna, Beneath Still Waters is slow and predictable with no surprises or twists at all.

End of Synopsis.

There is a fair bit of gore, for those into those kind of effects from severed body parts and decapitated heads to a face opened up from jaw to jaw and a crazy man sawing off his limbs. But, for those who consider this a good thing, they should also be warned that they will have to endure the annoying script and wooden acting for just a few minutes of blood-splattering action.





Its a pretty simple story, though. Forty years ago a town was overrun with occultists. So, how do the town’s people get rid of them?

Easy, build a dam next to the town and flood it so it never exists again. We now enter the present, or forty years later and a big town party is about to take place in celebration of the dam being built. Plans are being hampered, however, due to deaths taking place in the dam itself. Clara, the granddaughter of the previous mayor (who has just recently passed away), knows something is wrong with the town but can’t get her mother, Susana, to listen to her. The stranger, Dan knows something is wrong also but the police won’t listen to him. Instead he gets those worn out lines, such as “if I see you again in this town I will throw you in jail” and “I’ll let you do it but just for the record I don’t agree with you.”

Anyhow, one of the occultists, Salas, has come back from the dead and needs Clara to help him in his quest to take over the new town next to the flooded town. It’s up to the mysterious stranger to battle his own demons and save the town from the evil Salas. Typical.

One thing to note about this film; the accents in the film are absolutely atrocious. This is a Spanish film but done with English language. There are no sub-titles and no dubbing. I was trying to work out if the actors were South African, English, British American or Spanish. I mean well done to them for giving the English language a go, but I missed a lot of dialogue because every actor in the film had a different accent. It would have made the movie much more enjoyable if the actors spoke their native tongue and they put in sub-titles.

Oh, and..the evil antagonist drives a noticeable Mercedes Benz S-Class. Damn. Somewhat rich for someone who's dead for over 40 years.


So that pretty much wraps up about everything on horror flick, Beneath Still Waters.



Hee. Hee. Hee. I come for you.


Yesterday (Monday) i had an ISB assignment spreadsheet test. And i didn't even know about it. I messed up, and therefore, flunked it. This' what i get for slacking and not paying attention to important dates. The assignment isn't to say is hard, its FREAKING easy and straightforward. And i can still fail it. Imagine the embarassment.

Sure i had friends retaking the assignment, but not because the failed; they missed out on some parts. For me, i screwed the entire thing. My lecturer commented "i had the most errors."

So...screw it la i thought for that time. I just need to get home and practise on the assignment. I left Sunway with an unsatisfied feeling.

I went to Bee's house after that. And she cooked for me :) And she's not a bad cook either :)

Oh, and i'm feeling ji-wang. So what the heck.

Baby, i miss you :(

"doPod"

Some time ago, my phone ran into some techincial difficulties. The navigation button (joystick) doesn't function anymore. The entire thing cracked and i had to remove its plastic cover, exposingits bare...stick.



O2 XphoneII - Notice the missing joystick.

Soon later, the entire navigation stick completely does not function, anymore. This make things rather tough and renders the phone's functions completely useless. This includes sms-ing. Yes, i cannot sms-es without the use of the navigation stick.

So therefore, i was contemplating to get myself a new handphone, with financial assistance from my parents, of course :)

Enter the Dopod S300:



Dopod S300



Dopod S300


Dopod S300


Dopod S300


Dopod S300

Its size and dimensions rivals of Motorla's V3X, except its slightly thicker, and longer. But its a smartphone, just like my previous one :)



Dopod S300

Motorola's V3X dons a built-in 1.27 megapixel camera, but Dopod S300's one is a 1.3 megapixel camera. :) Thats 0.03 megapixels difference. Ok. :/




Dopod S300


Dopod S300


It also has an extrenal screen so that people can snap self-portraits. Essential for the cam-whores.



Dopod S300

There were actually some bad review on this phone, e.g camera stops working after 2 weeks of purchase :S

Daymn. That must've sucked.

Well, lets see how mine fairs up. Oh, and next week is my semester break. I have a one-wek holiday to make myself contented to :)

Oh, wait. I have a report on ISB to hand up the following week, a "student-at-risk" test on the following Tuesday for macroecons, and individual assignments for marketing and accounting. Daymn.

- take care and God bless, everyone.

"A Day to Remember"

Greetings!

Time for some recap.

Friday, 11th August 2006 - A Day to Remember :)

Yep. Indeed it was :)

I had classes from 9.30am-11.30am. That's two classes in two hours. You do the math. After class i went to get hBee.

We then went to get lunch from some Cina coffeeshop nearby my place. We were going to catch a movie w/ Aaron, Ghee, ChoongKhin and Brenda. It was kinda early to go 1U, so we decided to chill at my place :)

After that, we chowed to 1U to meet up w/ Aaron and friends. We watched Click. The show was good, but the company was even much better :)

Later, Aaron and friends went to the arcade just upstairs on the cinema level. They played Daytona. Brenda and we just watched. Actually, Daytona is a game for the Sega Saturn game console. I have used to play it, and yes, i used to own a Sega Saturn. Its still around in my house, at least i think it is.

Its rather old, dating back to the 90's era. It wasn't really popular back then. Probably overshadowed by other game consoles.

Go here for more info. on the Sega Saturn console - Click Here

Anyways, after a few gaming sessions at the arcade, we left off for MidValley to look for her friends. We kinda travelled alot today, but as long as she's in the car with me, i don't mind :)

At MidValley, we met up w/ Bee's friends - Mei & Julian, and YuZhi. Tim would meet up with us later.

"They welcomed us with their cunning smiles and unbounded questions." - adapted from jW's blog.

Haha. Indeed we were. The first thing they did was wanna shake hands with me :S Daymn.

And so we headed to Chopstick Restaurant for dinner. As usual, there were cam-whoring sessions but don't think i'll post them photos here. At least not now :)

After dniner, we jalan-jalan sikit. We decided to stop at TopShop. And a long one it was. Bee thinks i look good in plain t-shirts. She grabbed two plain t-shirts (one black and the other um...a "brighter" black..uh...ok) for me to try them on :)

And so..i went to try them on and see how it fits.

Hmmm?

Bee cam-whoring and me..looking on.

Hee hee.

The girlfriend commanded, "Buy 10 of those in different colors cause I like it". HAHA - adapted from jW's blog.


Bee said i look really nice in those plain t-shirts. Hmm... later at 8pm+ Tim came. Tho we just had dinner, we still felt a little hungry so we headed to YoYo Snack. Yea, we're big eaters :)

Had some fried chicken and chicken nuggets. And yea, they tasted really good. YoYo Snack's got some really good stuff there. After our "little" snack there, we proceeded to the cinema. Oh, and we watched Garfield 2. I don't think its that nice. More like a kid's show. Click was much better :)

I like the "3 minutes" and "less than 30minutes in a year" part :)

At around 11.00pm+, we drove to Subang for a drink at this Tanjong mamak in USJ. Oh, and Bee's really scared of cats. Really. She says she gets freaked out by things that have fur and moves. Haha. Ok..thats not funny :S

Soon, t'was time to go off. I had to send sayang home all the way back to Bandar Sri Damansara. Imagine the distance travelled on that day itself.

Home --> Sunway University College

Sunway University College --> Bandar Sri Damansara

Bandar Sri Damansara --> Home :)

Home --> 1U

1U --> Mid Valley

Mid Valley --> Subang Jaya

Subang Jaya --> Bandar Sri Damansara

Bandar Sri Damansara --> Home


Long day huh :)

Bee claims that day to be the most near-perfect day of her life. Hmmm.. :)

Yes Bee, i think it was a damn near-perferct day too myself :) I get to spend time w/ sayang, my friends, and Bee's friends. Not bad, we get to spend the day with everyone.

I especially get to spend the whole day with Bee. It was good since i get to see her the whole day! Haha :) Though i kinda blow quite alot of expenses on a single day itself :S


Anyways, residing all the happy moments i shared on that day, there are some who aren't so happy.

Like my mom.


Saturday, 12th August 2006 - Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned


But i don't blame her.

My mom owns a locally-assembled Mercedes Benz E200 Kompressor. Her car broke down..for the 6th time! All with the same problem involving some dumb engine valve malfunctioning or what-so-ever.

The thing that got her most aggravated was...the 5th and 6th time the problem surfaced..it happened within 3 days.

On Tuesday, her car had the problem. So she sent it back to Cycle & Carriage to get it repaired. She got back her car on Friday. Then today, in the morning, the same problem came back.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Indeed it was. It got my mom so annoyed man. And nobody likes it when my mom gets annoyed. She was practically screaming over the phone w/ the people over at Merceds Benz Cycle & Carriage. She complained and complained and complained and complained and complained...

And so, having enough of my mom's noise, the people @ Mercedes decided to compensate for her problem by....



Mum's new toy.

Getting her a brand new car! Alright, fine its not really brand new, at least they were nice enough to let my mom use a temporary replacement car while waiting for her car to get fixed.. Not bad huh..



Mum's new toy. C180 Kompressor.



Mum's new toy.


Mum's new toy.


Mum's new toy.


Mum's new toy.


Mum's new toy. Thats my legs on the right.

Mum's new toy.

Mum's new toy.

Mum's new toy.

Mum's new toy.


And so..with a new toy around the house, at least it calmed my mom down for the while.

The whole day was spent at home, and in front of my pc. Oh and, i got bored at night, so i decided to go and find Bee :)

We had a drink at some mamak stall nearby her place.

Oh and after that, she drove my car. It was irrevocable. I had to give her the exclusive privilege to drive my car. I had to. I don't know why :P


Fun weeked overall, if you asked me.



Sunday, 13th August 2006 - Today

Its a Sunday morning now, 10.20am. I just got up. Time to find time w/ mummy's new toy :)


Oh and..some jokes for the day. Enjoy.


What your ass is for

A rugged cowboy from Brokeback Mountain, Wyoming, goes into the doctor's office and has some tests run. The doctor comes back and says, "I am not going to beat around the bush, You have AIDS.

"The cowboy tugs at his Stetson and sets his jaw and says, "Doc, what can I do?"The doctor says, "I want you to go home and eat 5 pounds of spicy sausage, a head of cabbage, 20 un-peeled carrots drenched in hot sauce, 25 Jalapeno peppers, 40 walnuts and 40 peanuts, 1/2 box of Grapenuts cereal, and top it off with a gallon of prune juice.

"The cowboy squares his rugged shoulders and asks, "Will that cure me, Doc?"

"No, but it should leave you with a better understanding of what your ass is for."

A Foot And A Half

Maria had just got married and being a traditional Italian, she was still a virgin. So, on her wedding night, staying at her mother's house, she was nervous. But her mother reassured her. "Don't worry, Maria. Tony's a good man. Go upstairs and he'll take care of you.

"So up she went. When she got upstairs, Tony took off his shirt and exposed his hairy chest. Maria ran downstairs to her mother and says, "Mama, Mama, Tony's got a big hairy chest."

"Don't worry, Maria," says the mother," all good men have hairy chests. Go upstairs. He'll take good care of you.

"So, up she went again. When she got up in the bedroom, Tony took off his pants exposing his hairy legs. Again, Maria ran downstairs to her mother. "Mama, Mama, Tony took off his pants and he's got hairy legs!"

"Don't worry. All good men have hairy legs. Tony's a good man. Go upstairs and he'll take good care of you.

"So up she went again. When she got up there, Tony took off his socks and on his left foot he was missing three toes. When Maria saw this, she ran downstairs. "Mama, Mama, Tony's got a foot and a half!"

"Stay here and stir the pasta," says the mother."This is a job for Mama."

Plastic Surgery

A middle-aged woman has a heart attack and is sent to a hospital. While on the operating table, she has a near death experience. During that experience, she sees God and asks Him if this is it. God says no, and explains that she has another 30 years to live. Upon her recovery she decides to just stay in the hospital and have a face lift, liposuction, breast augmentation, tummy tuck, and more. She even has someone come in and change her hair colour. She figures that since she's got another 30 years she might as well make the most of it.

She walks out of the hospital after the last operation and is killed by an ambulance speeding up to the hospital.

When she arrives in front of God, she complains, "I thought you said I had another 30 years ?"God replies, "I don't recognise you."

Three Vampires

Three vampires were on a tree, each bragging about being the best vampire of the three. All of the sudden, Vampire A flew away and came back within 10 seconds. His mouth was so full with fresh blood, excess of the blood were dripping from his mouth.

Vampire A : "You see that house?"

Vampire B : "Ya I saw."

Vampire C : "Ya I saw."

Vampire A : "I sucked all their blood."

Vampire B then flew out of the tree, and came back in 5 seconds. Blood dripped from his mouth too.

Vampire B : "You see that village?"

Vampire A : "Ya I saw."

Vampire C : "Ya I saw."

Vampire B : "I sucked all their blood."

Vampire C then flew out of the tree, and came back in 2 seconds. Blood dripped not only from his mouth too, but was also all over his face.

Vampire C : "You see that tree there?"

Vampire A : "Ya I saw."

Vampire B : "Ya I saw."

Vampire C : "I didn't."
