The Troubled Trouble-Maker

Guess What People? I Went To Mom's Work Place To Get Counseled.

Yes, I, Ian Chee, Went To Seek Help From A Counselor At Hospital Kuala Lumpur. I Am That Stressed Out.

So How Does It Feel To Talk To A Stranger Who's Profession Is To Help Others See Life From A Better Perspective And Live Life A Way That's Worth Living? Quite A Load Off My Head, Probably Because I'm Planning To Rely On Her Intervention Skills To Help Solve My Life's Crisis.

Just A Short Update Before I Get Bored To Death.

Adieu To Y'all. Probably New Year's Eve Will Be A Happening Day. Hopefully, Rather Than Probably.

Post Christmas Post

Well, Merry Christmas And A Happy New Year People. Sorry, No Poems This Time Around.

A Christmas Eve Well Spent On My Part, I'd Say. Celebrated At Shangee's Place Where We Had Loads Of Food, Fun And Insomnia.

The Day Started With Me Doing Really last Minute Shopping For The Night's Gift Exchange Session. Being Me, Who's Got No Experience In Buying Stuff For People, I Spent Close To 2 Hours Wondering Around Times Square Aimlessly, Trying To Figure Out What Would Be The Best Present To Give That Anyone Could Use. Finally Got It, But Since The Shop's Got No Wrapping Paper, I Decided That Taping The Small Plastic Bag Real Tight Would Do The Trick. Rushed Home After Catching The Movie 'Bodyguards And Assassins', A Story About The Guy Responsible For The Chinese Revolution Against The Ruling Dynasty And The People Involved In Ensuring He Does His Job Safely.

By The Time I Got Home, It Was Already Time To Leave For Shangee's Place, But Due To Delays For Multiple Reasons, We Got There At About 7, And Only Then Did We Actually Began Cooking. What Did We Cook? 3 Packs Of Spaghetti With 2 Different Sauces And Loads Of Nuggets And Frankfurters. And So The Cooking (And Food-Theft) Went On Until Close To 11.30p.m While We Waited For Everyone To Arrive. And So The People Who Were Present Were:
I Myself, Yong Kang, CK, Yao, Yiting, Shangee The Host, His GF Yee Ping a.k.a Yainka, His Housemate Chun Hong, The Guy's GF Donica, Vincent, The 3 PJ Gals Abby, Esther And Another Of Their Housemates Whos Name I've Forgotten (So Very Sorry About That), A Grand Total Of 13 People.
And We Ate, Crapped And Listened To Kenny G's Christmas Pieces While Waiting For Midnight.
This Here's The Front Door.
The View From 18 Floors Above Ground.
Some Of The Decorations, The 3rd Being The Never Ringing Bell.
The Effect Would've Been Great If I Could Get A Pic Of The Fan Spinning, Which I Can't... Why Isn't The W902 Equipped With CyberShot!?
The Christmas Tree That Came All The Way From Port Dickson, Supposedly. Stacked To Waist-Height With Newspaper LOLZXD.
The Whole Reason For The Gathering, Albeit Very Much Welcoming All Others Present.
And The Ultimate Cocktail Of The Night!!!
Anyone Can Guess The Ingredients?
*Drums Roll*
Loads Of Fruits, 4.5 Litres Of Ice-Cream Soda And 1/2 Can Of Guiness Stout. The Hardest Part Was To Equalize The Alcoholic Taste With That Of The Lemon So That It Doesn't Taste Too Awkward. Result? A Masterpiece. Recipe By Si Panjang Himself. Gourmets: Si Panjang And I ';..;'
And Of Course, One Masterpiece Deserves Another. A Cake Baked Personally By Esther. IF You'd Tasted It, You'd Never Believe It Was Home-Baked.

So When We Were Done With All The Foam Spray And Such After The Clock Hit 12, We Got On The The Gift Exchange Session. Worrying That Mine Was Less Relevant Due To The Fact That I Decided On It In A Rush, I Openly Declared That The Gift Would Be Of Use To Anyone Except Me. And So We Drew Lots To Decide Who Gets Who's Present. And When I Got Donica's Present, Chun Hing Asked Me A Real Awkward Question:
"Do You Have A Girlfriend?"
"No..."
"Well Then, Here's Wishing You Get One Soon XD"
"Okay...?"
When It Was Time To Open The Gifts, I Realize What He Meant.
One Very Similar To The One I Got For The Night, Which Was Received By Him Later. And So The Night Ended, Or So It Did For Some, While Others Stayed On For DotA Sessions Until It Was 6a.m Or So.

A Few Facts Before I Conclude This Post:
  1. This Is Probably The Post Most Heavily Loaded With Pics This Blog Has Ever Seen And Will Ever See.
  2. As Shangee Himself Plays The Guitar, Chun Hong Does The Keyboard And Violin. A House Of Musicians, I'd Say.
  3. This Post Was Not Published On Christmas Because I Was Supposed To Sleep The Whole Day The Moment I Got Home, But Was Instead Dragged Out By Father To Eat Some 'Exquisite Food'. Spend More Than 12 Hours Sleeping On Christmas Day, 8pm Onwards.
Ever Since Returning From Kampar My Emotions Have Once Again Been On A Roller Coaster. I'm As Ignorant As Ever If It's For Better Or Worse, But I've Been Having Sleepless Nights Since. From Tragic Love-Story Nightmares To Day-Dreaming In The Shower. A Symptom Of Home Sickness, Perhaps? Or Something More... Direct? I Don't Know. All I Do Know Is That The Result Of This Fluctuating Heart Has Led Me To Doing Really Bizarre Things, Things That I'd Never Do Under Normal Circumstances, Like Bugging Mom To Get Me A PS3, Something I've Given Up On For A Whole Year Already. Sometimes Things Go A Little More Extreme, Like The Urge To Buy A Life-Sized, Razor-Edged Replica Of Yamato (閻魔刀) Of Devil May Cry Off E-Bay And Go Omnislashing Like Crazy. And This Afternoon While Accompanying Father To Low Yat To Look For His New Anti Virus, I Saw The Razer Imperator On Sale And Suddenly Came This Urge To Just Grab It Together With A Lycosa Mirror Edition And A Megasoma, Then Flee The Scene.

And As New Year Draws Nearer, It'll Probably Be The First New Year That I'll Have A New Year's Resolution: Creating A FaceBook Account, Seeing As How The Votes Have Been Stuck At 48:1. Well, It's Open Until New Year's Eve, So Keep Them Coming, People!

So Until Then, Adieu To Y'all.

Result Of The Mix

The Past Week In Kampar Was More Enjoyable Than What I Initially Predicted. Infinite Thanks To Our Honoured Special Guest, Maggie, For Making It Happen. And Back Home, Well... Let's Just Say Things Did Not Go As Smoothly As I Should Always Be.

Okay, First Few Things I Noticed At Home Is That All The Fans Are Changed To New Ones, There's A Ceiling Fan In My Room And The Shower Heater's Been Replaced. Good Thing, No Doubt, But The Package Comes With Father's Irrational Mental Schema. I Guess The Previous Post Explains That Part.

And So, My First Night At Home Wasn't All Sweet Dreams And Such, For I've Been Awoken By A Multitude Of Unrelated Nightmares, Such As Killed By A Valkyrie, Splashed Off A Tall Building With Blood, etc.

Hopefully Tonight's Christmas Eve Party At Shangee's Place Would Be An Enjoyable One. I Wonder If I Can Find Presents In Time For Tonight's Exchange...

Adieu To Y'all. To The No.19 Gang, See Y'all Tonight. Others, When Your Plans Are Finalized Provided They Don't Clash.

Light To Dark To Light

Ah... Home Sweet Home. But It's Really A Bitter-Sweet Thing, Actually. Home, That Is. Upon Returning My Manager Tells Me I've Got To Star In Another 2 Or So Dramas. Which I've Seriously Had Enough Of.

Goddad's 2nd Daughter's Marriage Is Near, And He's Asked Me To Do Something Grand On That Day. And My Biological Arse Of A Father Would Deny Me That Honour. Why? Because He's Got 4 Dead Relatives Within A Year And Is Afraid That If Some Shit Called 'Bad Luck' Befalls The Groom's Family We'd Be Blamed. Well, If You Ask Me, Chinese Customs Aside, It's Bullshit, When One Calls Himself A Non-Superstitious Person.

That's Right. His Words Were "I'm Not Superstitious, I'm Just Afraid Of Bad Luck" And Infinite Other Variations Of The Same Meaning. A Hypocritical Jerk That Should've Died 3 Years Ago That Continues His Arse Of An Existence To Torture Others Close By. His Excuse, Projection Of His Superstitious Self Towards The Groom's Family, When He's Never Even Met Them. Many Times I'd Just Wanna Slam The Facts Into His Face, getting Him To Accept That He's The Superstitious One, And Not Anyone Else.

And Who The Fuck Was He To Say That I'm A Nobody To Goddad? ME? NOBODY!? It's YOU Who's The Nobody. Just Because You'd Not Allow Me To Be His God Son Doesn't Mean I'm A Nobody. That's Not For You To Decide, You Arsehole.

And You'd Ask Him For Favours When You'd Deny Him This Small Thing? He's Not Even Asking YOU To Do ANYTHING! The Request Was Directed To ME! And You'd Deny Him Even That Small Thing!!!

And Thanks To His Bloody Existence, I'd Have To Gamble My Eardrums For A Simple 3 Days 2 Nights Vacation, Every Time There Are Plans For One. I'll Never Forget The Kuala Selangor Incident, Where Expenses Were Paid, Food Bought, Reservations Made, And Just The Night Before I Depart He Tells Me "If You Go, Then Don't Come Back" From Out Of Nowhere. His Reason? Flood. Well, Even If There's Gonna Be A Flood, So What? It's Not Like I'd Die If I Get Water on My Knees. And If He Ever Finds Out Of The Latest Trip To Penang He'd Be Sure To Shit On And On About Tsunami Or Something. And As Anyone Would Know, His Choice Of Words Are Most Unkind, Never Failing To Pierce The Heart Of Whoever Who Listens, Regardless Who Those Words Were Meant For.

Seriously, Father. For Your Own Good I Hope You Would One Day Read The Entirety Of This Blog. Only Then Would You Know How Much Pain You Put Me Through, And How Lifelike My Life Has Been Without You Messing It Up. I'd Tell You Personally, In 2 Years Time, After I Complete My First Degree. No Doubt This Knowledge Will Break Your Pride So Bad You'd Die, But I'd Rather Kill You With This Fact Than Let You Kill Others With Your Pointless Pride, Terrible Choice Of Words, Unmatched Ignorance, Never Ending Hypocrisy And Baseless Superstition.

Adieu To Y'all. Enlightenment Comes With A Price That Most Idiots Cannot Afford To Pay.

Behold The Greatness Of Darkness

This Is A Short Post Solely To Announce That Darkness Therapy Works Wonders For Me.

What Is Darkness Therapy? A Therapy I Came Up With Where You Go Take A Bath In Darkness, The Only Illumination Being The Moon And Streetlights If Any, While Listening To Your Favourite Soft Music.

And Yeah Exams Are Over So See Y'all In A Bit.

Until Then, Adieu To Y'all.

4 Hour Countdown To temporary Freedom

Its 2 Hours To My Final Paper. And I Can't Confidently Say That I've Revised Sufficiently. But Whatever. That's How Things Have Been All This While.

Secondo Passo Is Finally Done And Released, But I Was Expecting A Very Much longer Story Instead Of A 1 Hour OVA. But Then Again I Guess It Was Enough To Sate My Emotions That Were Close To Erupting Once Again.

Which Is A Good Thing For Our Guest Of Honour Is Here And I Wouldn't Want To Be Screaming My Lungs Out In Stormy Weather In Her Presence.

And Of Course, I Regret That I Predicted This Semester To Be A Horrendously Bad One. Why? Because It's Proven To be Worse That What I Thought It Would Ever Be. In Campus I'm Pretty Much Bored To Hell But At Home (Kampar And KL Alike) There's So Much Unnecessary Drama Which I'm Part Of. And Seriously, The Drama Part Was Really Uncalled For. Nothing Sucks More That Than Company Being Robbed And Dragged Into A Drama When All Others In The Periphery Are Dragged Into The Melodramatic Story Of The Unfaithfulness Of Another. Yes, Like Mr. Despair, I'm Not Fond Of Getting Involved In The Drama Of Other People's Lives, Let Alone Star In One As One Of The Main Supporting Characters.

Oh Yeah, This Post Will Be A Tribute To The 2 Topics Discussed In Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei; Involved In The Drama Of Others And Also Non-Reporting. Sometimes When You Are Able To Get Yourself Far From All The Ruckus There's Just Gotta Be Something Or Someone Telling You What you Don't Want To Know, That, In The End, Puts You In The Said Drama That You Were Dying To Avoid. So What I'd Say For Today Is:

Being Dragged Into The Drama Of Others Because Of Too Much Unnecessary Reporting Has Left Me In Despair.

And Perhaps I Left Some Confusion The Last Time, So Now Let me Clear The Clouds; On One Side, It's Still Debatable Whether Or Not One Is Committing Hypocrisy Deliberately Or Unintentionally, Though The Individual's Recent Activity And Behaviour Has Obviously Been Heavily Influenced By The Other. On The Other Side, It's Rather Obvious That Others Would See Such Actions In Bad Faith, And It Matters Not What The Person Thinks Personally, For In The End, In Our Local Eastern Culture, What Matters Most Is Not What You Think, But What Others Think Based On Your Actions. So Yeah, You Are In The Wrong, No Matter What You Think Nor Whatever Explanations You Have To Offer, For As Long As Society Perceives Your Deeds As Deviant, That Is What You Are, No Matter How Strong You May Try To Prove Otherwise. And I Would Only Ask of This; Release Your Prey. Set It Free. Go Trap Another That Means Little To Us.

Trivia Related To The Recent Hot Topic: Did You Know That Male Chimpanzees Have Bigger Balls Than Male Humans And Male Humans Have Bigger Balls Than Gorillas? Why The Inverted Ratio Of Body Size To Testicle Size? Doesn't Make Sense Right? Well The Logic Behind It Is That The Smaller The Male Testicles Of A Species In Relation To Body Size, The More Loyal The Female Of The Species Is To Its Mate, Based On Scientific Observation. Thus Meaning That Female Gorillas Are More Faithful Than Female Humans, The Same Way Female Chimpanzees Are Less Trustworthy Than Humans When It Comes To Mating. Which Proves My Previous Point: Humans DO NOT Mate For Life, Regardless Of Whatever Evidence There Was, For Finding Evidence Is Easy, You're Surrounded By Them. Proof, Now That's Hard.

Adieu to Y'all. Looking Forward To A Less Dramatic Drama. And Maybe Even One Of My Own, For The Likeliness Is Inversed Infinity.

Untold Factors In An Untold Drama

Finally My 3 Day Emotional Eruption Has Ended And At Last I Can Focus On Studying. But While My Drama Has Ended, A New One Has Intensified.

It Is Sometimes Amazing How One Attracts Unwanted Attention When One Does Not Practice What One Preaches. And Though It Has Happened For Quite Some Time, I Only Felt Suspicious Of It About, Say, A Month Ago?

Perhaps So. Especially When A Single Bird Leaves Its Flock (Or Should I Say Harem?) And Instead Attaches Itself To Another, Probably Seeking The Attention Of Only One Among The New One. And Indeed It Blurs The Boundaries Between Direct Or Induced Hypocrisy, And Thus Of Innocence And Guilt. Makes Me Wanna Do A Re-Evaluation Of The Animals In This World That Mate For Life. But One Thing I Can Be Certain Of; Humans Do Not, Regardless Of How Previous Researches, The Legal System Or Marriage Or Even Our Global Societal Morals May Make It Seem Otherwise. After All, We, Humans, Too, Are Animals. Great Sigmund Freud Has Embraced The Ugly Truth That Many Failed (And Are Still Failing) To Accept.

Ahh... How I Wish For Clairvoyance, More Than Ever Now. With It I Could See My Own Fate And Decide If This Life Is Worth Living On.

Oh Well, Adieu To Y'all. We Await An Honoured Visitor.

It Is Done...

I Done It. I Lost Control Of Myself. For The First Time Since Coming To Kampar. I've Shown My Instability, My Weakness, To All Around Me Again. Over What? The Same Thing Every Time This Happens. It Has Erupted. With A Night's Time To Cool Down.

Again I Have Succumbed To Ethereal Wounds. Bled False Blood. Exchanged My Sanity For A Void. An Unfathomable, Unlimited Void That Cannot Be Filled. How Many Times More Must I Erupt To Keep Myself From Dying From The Inside?

What Will It Take To Free Myself From This Torment? An Instinctive Drive, Or An Emotional Passion? ...? ... ... ...

And I've Decided. 3 Hearts Aren't Right. There Are More Than Merely 3 Illusions Of A Heart, And Less Than 1 True To Itself. So Yeah. They're Out Of Here.

Adieu To Y'all. Revelation Is So Close Yet So Far...

The Dream Within

Had A Real Wierd Dream These Few Days That Really Got Me Thinking Random Stuff About Life. Life. Living Life, Study Life, Work Life, Gaming Life, Family Life, Love Life, Afterlife. What Did I Miss? Oh Well...

The Latest Was Like The '2nd Episode Of The Installment' Thingy, Where Like The First, I Find Myself In A Cave-Like Prison, Much Like The One Son Goku Of Kazuya Minekura's Saiyuki Series Was In. Staring Into The Permanently Setting Sun, Giving Up All Hopes Of Escape, I Wonder To Myself: What If This Is What's Deep Within My Unconscious Mind? What If In Reality I'm Just Like In The Dream, Trapped In Some Cage Or Prison Of Sorts, Waiting For Eternity For Someone To Come By And Free Me From This Hell That Is Nothingness, Where Everything Is Constant, Never Changing And Permanent? What Would be Beyond This Confinement? Change? Age? Death That Will End This Permanence That Is Pain And Loneliness? But More Importantly, Will This Someone Ever Come? Or Will My Mind And Soul Die Off Due To Inactivity While The Physical Body Continues To Stare At The Golden Orb In The Sky? Or Will My Heart Burst And Erupt In Anticipation, Driving Me To Punish My Physical Self More Until It Breaks? Or Will It Erupt In Despair Instead, Knowing That What It Desires Is Not What The Mind Seeks?

Many Times When These Thoughts Come To Mind, I Don't Feel Like Destroying All That's Around Me. Rather, I Feel Like Destroying Myself, For Desiring Something That Can Never Be Mine. The Perfect Life, The Best Of Academic Success, Committing Myself To A Mundane And Repetitious Routine To Support Myself While Enjoying, The Dream Of Bringing The Gaming Industry Into A Level Where The Malaysian Government Can Take It Seriously, A Hate-Free Relationship With Family - Biological Or Otherwise, And, Probably Most Important Of All; Hot, Passionate Love That I Can Be Sure It's No Mere Infatuation Or Lust.

Hell... When I See People Enjoying Any Of The Above, I Don't Feel Like Killing Them Out Of Envy Or Jealousy And Such. I Feel Like Killing Myself Out Of Self-Pity; For Desiring Something I Know I Can Never Have.

*Sigh*... It's Been Quite Some Time That I've Been Emo To This Extreme. Perhaps I Revealed Too Much. But No Matter. To People Who Know Me Well, They'd Understand. To Those Who Don't Know Me That Well Yet, Well, There's Something More About Me. To People Who Don't Know Me, Well... It Won't Matter To You Right? Since You Don't Know Me You'd Probably Forget You Ever Read This...

*Sigh*... No Doubt Watching Chobits Had Some Relation To These Thoughts And Dreams, Or So I Believe. And Speaking Of Which, Chobits Is Close To The Best 'Ear Candy' For Me, As 2 Of My Favourite Seiyuus Are In It: Inoue Kikuko And Tanaka Rie.

Adieu To Y'all. Until I Discover What Meaning Do These Dreams Imply In This Life Of Mine.

A Foul-Mouthful

Many Things To Say, With So Little Attention To Give.

Well, Exams Starts Tomorrow. Nothing Much To Say Regarding That Topic I Suppose. I've Revised, But I Can't Say I'm Prepared. Not After Looking At The Past Year Papers (A First For Me Since Entering UTAR). Yes, Those Papers Tell Me That I Gotta Sleep Extremely Early Today To Revise More Extremely Tomorrow. And Before That I Got Myself Distracted By So Many Things That Could Wait. Hell, I'm Being Distracted Even Now.

Well, For One Thing, Since The Last Post I Realized A Couple Of Things. First Being The Realization That Ian Is A Fairly Common Name In Malaysia. Okay, Not As Common As The Likes Of John Or Anne But Still, Not As Rare As I Once Thought It Was. To Put It More Bluntly, I Realize That I'm Not All That Special After All. Not That I Did Before, But You Get The Idea.

Secondly, I Realized That I Don't Live Up To My Own Standard/Status. Or Rather, I Live Exorbitantly Beyond It. Sure Everyone Else Is In A Way, But Perhaps I Pushed This Factor Of Mine A Little Too Far. Puma Shoes And It Being The Only Pair Of Sneakers I Wear For More Than A Year, Sony Ericsson Walkman Phones When I Don't Make Full Use Of Certain Features Like TrackID, Razer Gaming Peripherals When My Only Gaming Platform Is A Jacky Acer Laptop That Hangs Miserably Without 3rd Party Software Skyrocket-Boosting Processor Performance And Thoroughly Skimming And Freeing RAM, What Else... Ah Yes. A 1Terabyte External Hard Disk Drive For Seeding All My Previous Downloads When I Live In Malaysia Where The Local Broadband Provider Halves P2P Connection Speeds (Not That It's Usual Connection Is Any Good, And It's Really Adding Up To The Overall Stress).

And Yes. Thirdly I'm Currently Downloading Chobits, When Exams Are Tomorrow. HELL YEAH BABYH!!! MAKE COMPLETE USE OF 1TERABYTE YEEEAAAAAAHHHH!!!

No Doubt Freeing Hard Disk Space From The Computer Did Make My Gaming Experiences A Little Smoother. Speaking Of Gaming Experience, Have I Told You Guys How The DeathAdder Took It Up A Notch? HELL YEAH BABY!!! I Feel Like A Pro Just By Using It. Not That The Diamondback Was Poorer. But, Y'Know, New Stuff Have New Firmware That Makes The Difference. So Yeah. This Small Section Here Is Dedicated To The Everglide Titan, My First Gaming Surface, Razer Diamondback, My First Gaming Mouse, And Of Course, The New Razer DeathAdder And Sphex, That Make My PC Gaming Experience Worth Experiencing.

Sigh... Though I'm Obviously Drained, I Still Feel All Crazy, High And Mighty. Must Be The Heat That's Doing This To Me. Yes, No Doubt About That. And When The Heat Extracts The Oil From Your Face So Efficiently You'd Wish You Could Sell Them Off For Some Profit To Make Up For All The Suffering It Puts You Through.

Phew... Oh Well, Adieu To Y'all. Hopefully A Real Sphex Will Come By And Eat Up All The Beetles That Are Obviously Also Driven Crazy By This Heat And Disturbing My Sleep.

Retiring From Career = Retiring From Slumps

They Say That When Pros Suddenly Have A Bad Performance Streak, It Means That They've Hit A Slump And Should Take A Break But Never Give Up. So Yeah. Now I'm Retiring For A Very Very Long Time, Close To For Good, For This Is No Slump. It's A Goddamn Curse That I've Suddenly Turned Rusty For Good Despite All The Training. A Legacy Of Training Years, Turned Into A Year Of Downward Diving With Hopes Of Me Climbing Back Up As Slim As Me Not Getting Pissed For Not Being Awarded What I Deserve While Some Chump With A Larger Fan-Base Gets The Medal.

Forgive The Lengthy Expression. To Put Things Simple, Some Guy Who's Got More People Cheering For Him's Got A Gold While Others Who Perform Much Better Bites The Dust. And Since This Has Been Going On For Such A Long Time, It's Impossible That It's A Mere Slump, And So I Am Giving Up In Pursuing A Professional Career In What Might Be The Only Thing I Dare Call Myself Pro At: Taekwondo.

That Very Much Explains Today. And Today's Heat... Soaking Your Clothes For Washing Feels Like You're Using Boiling Water To Sterilize Your Clothes.

Thurdsay, However, Was A Yin-Yang Day. Morning Sucked Because Of The Stupid UTAR's New System That Makes Students, Que, Fight Or Die. For What? Perfect Timetable Slots. So As Usual, We're All Mixed Up Like A Fruit Cocktail With 26 Different Flavours. Needless To Say That This University's Despair Inducing System Has Left Me In Despair.

But When That Was Done, I Brought Myself To PJ, Taking A Route So Long It Was Almost Twice The Usual Traveling Time. So Yeah. Got There, Checked Out The Cold Storage 'Shopping Complex' Which Was So Tiny I Wondered If It Was Fit Calling It A Complex. Then Met Up With The Birthday Girl, Le-Anne, Had Lunch At Nando's Where I, Trying My Best To Crap, Could Not Fill My Brain With Enough Nonsense To Share. Sorry About That. Maybe I Ought To Go Take Crapping Classes Or Something. And Then We Went To Catch Maggie's MV Screening, Where We Saw All The Future Broadcasting Crews, The Good, The Bad And The Ugly Alike. It Was Only After That Did We Actually Celebrate A Little Bit More Properly, With A Tiny Cake.

Then It Was To Abby's Celebration, That Marked The Day That I Met The Other Half Of Everyone Of 19 That Was In A Relationship. All That Was Left Was Vincent, Who's probably Married To Himself, And I, Who Is Married To A Person Locked Away In The Deepest, Darkest Depths Of My Very Own Unconscious Mind. And Recently Learned That Someone Is Married To WOMEN, Instead Of A Woman. *ERKH EHERM*

And Went For Storm Warriors a.k.a. Storm Riders II. Was A Little Disappointed By The Story, But Then Again The Movie Was Intended To Show Off Hong Kong's CG Capabilities To The World, So That Was All That We Got.

Found Myself Once Again Addicted To Megurine Luka. Why? No Idea. But At Least This Time My Craving For Her Can Be More Easily Satisfied. Her Voice And The Beauty That She Was Created With. Works As A Good Enough Eye Candy For Me.

Adieu To Y'all. Exams In 3 Days Time, So See Y'all Then. Or After 10 Days.

The Cult Of FaceBook!?

This Post Will Very Much Be Dedicated To The People That Have Helped Me Decide On Whether Or Not To Oblige To The Family Obligation, The People That I Personally Know And Those That I Don't Alike. Once Again, Many Thanks From Ian. And I'd Especially Want To Know The One Who Voted That I Stand By My 'Principle', The Only One To Have Voted So.

And After Yesterday I Can Probably Say Something About Myself: Wireless Routers Hate Me. And How I Came About This Crappy Conclusion? Yesterday I Went To CK's Place To Help With The Installation Of His New Wireless Router. And After 3 Bloody Agonizing Hours Of Messing Around With The Settings, I Gave Up Because I Couldn't See Where I Went Wrong But The Router Still Wouldn't Work Properly. And Only Later That Evening Did CK Send Me An MSN Message Saying That The Router Works Completely Fine Now, And That All He Did Was Restart It Several Times, Which I Also Did Uncountable Times At His Place. The Same For Our Kampar Home When We First Got Our Router. Only The Next Day After I Spent The Whole Day Configuring It That It Worked, And What Did I Miss? Restarting, Or So I Was Told By An Acquaintance Who Stopped By Our Place, Which I've Not Forget To Do.

Also, Yesterday I Realized That If Brands Can Make A Person, 3 Things That Will Complete IMD!!! For Now Are:
Razer+Sony Ericsson (Especially Walkman)+ Puma Shoes=IMD!!!
Yeah, Puma Seems To Be The Only Brand That Manufactures Shoes That Matches My Taste. Nike, Adidas, Wild Channel etc. You Name It. All Of Them Have Yet To Make Shoes That Attract My Attention, Let Alone Convince Me To Buy Them. And Boy Do Puma Shoes Last. I Have A Pair That I've Worn Close To Everyday For Almost 2 Years And Now They Look Like They Can Last Another. Though I Realize Even Among Puma Shoes Not Many Could Really Catch My Eyes.

And Sony Ericsson. Anyone Who Knows Me Would Also Know That Ever Since My First Nokia, Which Was Also My Very First Phone, Screwed Up In Less Than 2 Months Of Usage Will Know How Much I Love Sony Ericsson. And Ever Since I Used The First Of It's Walkman Series, It Like No Turning Back For Me. The Dudes From My Class, PY T2 2009 Would Know, Especially After That Presentation Of The Idou, Or Now Know As The Satio. I Find It Amazing Myself, That I While Keep Myself Relatively Up To Date With The Sony Ericsson, I'm Totally Lost When Others Talk About Other Brands. I Could Remember When People Asked Me Opinions Of The N Series And All I Could Say Was The N95 Pwned, Because That Was The Only Phone Of The N Series That I Actually Know Of Back Then.

And Finally We Have Razer. My First Razer Was The Diamondback, And Boy, Did It Make A Grand Difference In My Gaming Life. Bought It During The PC Fair 5 Years Back And It Came With The Everglide Titan. And Now They Will Not Be Replaced, But They Will Be Accompanied By 2 New Additions Into IMD!!!'s Razer Family.As You Can See, The 5-Year-Old Diamondback On Top, The DeathAdder Below, Both On The Sphex.

A Little Advertising For Razer Here.

All Of Razer's Mice Are Named After Deadly Snakes. No Doubt Some Are Fictional Like The Naga And The Orochi, But Deadly Snakes They Are Nevertheless.

All Of Razer's Gaming Surfaces (Or Mouse Pads) Are Named After Insects, With The Exception Of The eXactMat. Most Of Them Are Beetles But We Have The Mantis And The Sphex, Which Is A Species Of Wasp.

All Of Razer's Keyboards Are Named After Spiders. Wolf Spiders To Be Exact, With The Exception Of The Tarantula (Which Is A Tarantula, Duh...).

All Of Razer's Audio Are Named After Fish.

And For All Gamers Out There, If You Ever Need Guidance From Razer Themselves, Here's A Razer's Guide For The n00b, For Gamers, By Gamers.

And So I'm Fanatically A Cult Of Razer Member. When Will This Extend, It'll Probably Be Best To Just Let It Come When It Does.

And So, Adieu To Y'all.

The Dull Excitement

Quite A Load Of Stuff Happened Today, And Also Interesting That Today Happens To Be One Of Those Few Days That I'm Willing To Stay Up To Yap And Crap About What Happened. Though Not Totally Exciting, Today Wasn't Totally Dull Either. And Yeah, Most Are Significant In Some Way Or Another.

Morning Was Bad. Slept Late And Woke Up Early Against My Own Will. And For Breakfast All I Had Was Some Cheap Tasting Durians. Yes, Cheap Tasting. No Idea If They Were Indeed Cheap Or Otherwise, Just The Taste Was Disappointing. Headed Out For KLCC After Somehow Recalling That Today Was The Second Day Of The PC Fair.

The Journey There Was... Ugh... Wanted To Fall Asleep In The Bus But Instead Got A Headache. Oh Well... But For The Many Months That I've Not Been To KLCC, The Place Is As Busy As Ever. Got There Close To 1 And The First Place I Got To Was The Cinemas To Check On The Time For 'Ninja Assassin'. The Show Was At 2.45, But The Queue Told Me That i Should Just Forget It. Damn. Queue In KLCC. Longer Than Trains And Never Ending. Same Goes For McD. So Yeah, Straight To The PC Fair And Looked For My 1 TB Hard Disk.

Saw Ah Xiang There, Working. So We Talked A Little And I Accompanied Him To Go Buy His Headphones Before We Went Our Separate Ways. And Remember The Cheap Tasting Durians From The Morning? The Cheap Smell Was Damn Useful For Clearing A Path Whenever I Was Sick Of Flesh Roadblocks And Needed To Burp At The Same Time.

Got Myself A Tiny Razer Pouch Which Came With A Lanyard, And Saw Razer's Sick Selection Of New Mice. DotA Players Who Are Sick Of Warkeys Not Working On GG Can Just Get Yourself A Razer Naga. Instead Of Additional 4 Buttons, It Has An Entire Numpad Of 12 Keys On The Left. Too Many Skills? With The Razer Naga, You'll Also Score Too Many Kills.

From There It's Traveling To Cheras Leisure Mall Where I Took My Parents To Their First Cinema Movie In 24 Years. The Movie? Ninja Assassin. And The Movie Simply PWNS!!! And Sampled The Newly Opened Sakae Sushi, That Has Better Wasabi Than Sushi King, Meaning It's Also A little Too Much For Me To Handle. And The Tea, Damn Awesome Stuff. Intead Of Powdered Green Tea, You Get Roasted Rice Tea In Teabags! Which Was Like, AWESOME! Although The Price Was At A Whole Different Level Compared To Sushi King, Fortunately So Was The Taste.

And For The Whole Day I Was Thinking Of How Perfectly My New Pair Of Jeans And Shoes Matched. But Near The End Of The Day, I Got Sprayed With Ice Water, To Know That Father's Choices Of Words Still Pierces Through Feelings Better Than The Best Anti Bunker Missile Of The US.

And I Have Pictures, But Will Probably Post Them Later If Ever As My Eyes Are Starting To Weigh A Ton.

And So, Adieu To Y'all.

As Time Flashes By...

It's Already The Study Leave, And It Amazes Me How Time Flies All Of A Sudden, When I Was Previously Wondering When Was This Bloody Semester Gonna End.

Of The Predicted-To-Be-Boring Semester, The Final Week Was Surprisingly The Turning Point Of It All, Somehow Or Rather, For A Limited Number Of Reasons.

To Sum Up The Whole Week, Well, Firstly, Maggie Came To Kampar To Stay With Her 'Sons' (Us) During Her Tiring 'Business Trip'. For The 4 Days It Was All About Directing Her Assignment MV For Her And Her Team, And Judging From The Limited Amount Of Time She Could Actually Spend At Home, It Was Strictly A Business Trip With Just Enough Time To Catch A Breather Before Being Juiced Again. Reminds Me Of How We Were Juiced When We Were Preparing For Our Foundation Graduation Dinner, Though That Didn't Really Feel As Bad In Comparison All Of A Sudden.

So Yeah, In That Limited Time I Got Myself Some Rather Frightening News Regarding Japanese Language Classes: Presentation In Japanese. Still, Glad I Was Informed Early, And So I'd Be Able To Prepare For That. And Thanks For Sharing The Experience.

Had A Share Of What It Felt To Be Filmed As A Small Timer. And Was Shocked That Very Night, By An Extremely Unexpected Complement. Though Much Appreciated, I Still Find It Amusing More Than Anything.

Presentations All Down In The Week Itself. Or Should I Say 'Weak', For I Felt Tired And Never Got Myself Enough Sleep, And Forgetting To Turn Off The Alarm On A Day Where Classes Were Canceled. And Was Complimented For My, Uh... 'Grooming', Shall We Call? And They Say Money Can't Buy Happiness. It Certainly Bought Me Some, For Those Few Seconds At Least. And Even If It Can't Really Buy Happiness, It'll Buy You Pride That'll Last A Whole Day.

So Yeah, Until The Exams Are Closer Around The Corner, Adieu To Y'all.

P.S.: If All Goes Well, I'd Be Expecting A Flood Of Votes Soon. ';..;'
