2009-09-16T04:13:00.005+08:00

I know, I know...
I supposedly have moved to a different link so why am I still putting posts on this old blog? That's what you're thinking, am I right?

Well, okay. Here's why:
I've just realised that there are bazillions of random photos in my computer that have not ever been seen by eyes other than my own. It is such a terrible, terrible waste. They're just begging to be viewed, showcased, commented on, and most importantly ogled at. And since I'm a photographer in bloom, I shall post them here on this old blog of mine to be marvelled at by all.

Also, since these photogrpahs were all shot in Malaysia, I cannot absolutely post them on my UK blog.

Understand the contradictoriness?

Hence, this blog will preserve itself through the postings of many random, random photographs taken in the country I call home -- even though I am hardly patriotic about it.

Left 4 Dead

2009-08-07T17:06:00.009+08:00

This is especially
for Mei Li, Melissa
and Yee Jin

<3

Jin: So you're trying to get ML to play Left 4 Dead. I second it.

ML: Woman, listen to Jin ... and me. =P

Mel: Hey, Melster! This isn't the right time to recommend games to you but when possible, try out this one. Hope this becomes your first ~~18+ rating~~ very fun addiction.

LEFT 4 DEAD

[First-person shooter computer game]
[ Horror/Survival]
[18+ (For violence)]

Introduction
The game's name is Left 4 Dead with the word "for" replaced by a numeral. The plot is titular. You play as are one of the four who has been left 4 dead after surviving a viral outbreak that has wiped out humanity. But as the place overpopulates with murderous, flesh-chomping zombies (in-gamely called the Common Infected), pockets of survivors have made it too out there and are calling other survivors (like you!) to group up.
It is now your initiative to take your new found team across Infection Nation to request rescue. But it isn't only the Common Infected that stands in your way to sanctuary. There are other, other things prowling the vestiges, too. And they are different...

Interested yet?

Gameplay
The player must work together with 3 computer-controlled characters that form their foursome where there is constant interaction between them. Team play is an essential key here for the entire team's survival and by incorporating incapacitating situations, the player is forced to depend, look out for and work together with his computerised team. But not always as link-play between friends is also possible.

There are four campaigns to play in with a different location and scenario for each:

No Mercy
Classic. It's the abandoned hospital.

Dead Air
It's Resident Evil: Degeneration all over again! The airport!!

Death Toll
Church is not so safe anymore now that everyone's dead.

Blood Harvest
Forest ... farmhouse ... cornfields ... infected...

Interested now?

Combat
Physical attacks hardly chafe the skin flakes off your enemies in this game. So, firearms are at your service to do the dirty work. You posses one handgun (standard weapon) and another of your choice. And this choice ranges from simple TMPs to the sleeker, more devastating rifle.

For those who went for National Service, here's your second chance at holding that M-16 again. And for those who didn't ... ~~I'm sorry you are deprived~~ you can get acquainted NOW! Also, obtaining another handgun in the game lets you wield both guns at once. 30 infinite shots ready to take aim and fire here, guys.

You can be Zombie City's Lara Croft...

Characters
L4D offers four unique protagonists that will spoil even the fickle-minded. Dubbed the Survivors, the foursome consists of ~~Zoey (a girl), Francis (a boy), Louis (a boy) and Bill (an old boy)~~...

- Bill, a tough old codger who served in the Vietnam War.

- Francis, the typical soft toughie who screams like a girl when on the verge of death.

- Louis, a loudmouth. Dresses like an office worker.

- Zoey, a university student. The only female.

Enemies
The pandemic turned all humankind into grey, gormless zombies. But as usual, extraordinary mutations occur putting some of the infected into a class more dangerous than the rest...

The Common Infected
If you though Resident Evil's zombies were something, think again. L4D's Common Infected are faster, wilder, more aggressive and ... ouch! They smack you! Going up against one Common Infected is cake, but when the Horde comes a-rushing ... well, prepare to go trigger happy.

Boomer
Boomer is a bloated piece of infected work. He is a rotund bomb in a little blue shirt where his swollen belly grotesquely bulges from. Boomer's main attack is to vomit gunk on the Survivors, thus obscuring the screen and attracting the Horde. Annihilating Boomer is not that easy either; piercing the rotund fiend with a bullet will cause him to explode and if done too closely, slime splatters and the Horde happily pays a visit once again.

Hunter
Hunter is the nastiest infected to tussle with. Fast and agile, he ~~stalks and~~ pounces from afar so you never see it coming. Once down, he'll pin his victim and claw like no tomorrow. Since pushing him off is not an option, a teammate has to save you. Before your life runs out, that is...

Smoker
Fun stuff, Smokers. When shot, he'll explode into a blinding cloud of ... yeah, smoke. Although pretty, those green particles don't compare to his main weapon: A python tongue. Smokers like to capture and haul the unwary away in a asphyxiating tongue wrap. It's revolting and once again, freeing yourself is not an option. A teammate has to do that.

Tank
I hate this thing. This is an infected who has snacked on too much steroids and worked out like the Hulk. Ritually. Tank is not a subtle attacker. This means, it'll gives one hell of a frontal attack. Being pursued by Tank is like being chased by -- dare I say it? -- a tank. And he deals the hurts out like one as well. It takes the whole team to gun him down but on the bright side, he prompts the trigger-happy you inside.

Witch
She's the epitome of "you leave me be, I leave you be". She sits on the ground crying, moaning, ~~orgasm-ing~~ docilely but turns viciously vicious when "startled". Two strikes from her crazy claws and you're out. Running doesn't prolong anyone's life either ... she chases like a ninja. According to the game creators, Witch was purposed to turn "Happy Hunting" into "Shut Up and Sneak". But no matter what, I always can't help ~~shooting~~ accidentally disturbing her. She's fun. To kill.

Conclusion
Though L4D has no story line, this game is enjoyable for the heck of putting the iron pellet to the undead. And with the aesthetic touches and detail put into the graphics, it almost seems as though you can really photograph that gloomy skyline and feel the disaster under your feet.
Why you should play it? Because it simply kicks ass. Also, on a more selfish reason, you must play it because I'm ~~addicted to~~ playing it.
I've already given it 4 stars out of 5. You le? XD

The Sephiroth addiction is back
via Final Fantasy : Crisis Core!

Don't know who he is? What a sin...

That's Sephiroth, the One-Winged Angel of the FF game series. Making his debut appearance in FF-VII, he's the game's prime antagonist -- in other words, he's deliciously evil.

In Crisis Core, he's a minor character and ultimately NOT EVIL as the game is set to contour around the early lives of some of FF's core characters. While players take on the role of Zack (Crisis Core's main character), the un-evil past of Sephiroth eventually structures with unfolding of the plot. Honestly, I never thought Sephiroth was capable of good until I came across Crisis Core.

And as bonus, fans will be glad to know he smiles at least TWICE in the game...

One.

Two.

Smexi, yeah?

Note: I promise that one day -- eventually -- I'll stop being such video game girl and ~~get a life~~ do something worthwhile.

When I was at NS, we used to be visited by a church called MIRI GOSPEL HALL. Then one day, as my brother bought burgers from Burger King, I see this signboard above one of the shoplots...

WANGSA UKAY GOSPEL HALL!!
Wow ... NS really follows me around, doesn't it?

During dinner, the guy forgets to give me a spoon for my soup. So my dad went and pesan. But the waiter never returned. So dad pesaned from another waiter. This other guy also jalan, and then sesat somewhere.
So dad got angry and scolded a third waiter. In the end, Waiter #1 and Waiter #2 come back and my soup ended up having 5 spoons.

For 1 person.

Well, the camp is deep in the middle of Nowhere, accessible through

You practically bounce in your vehicle.
Think roller coaster.

WELCOME TO KEM PLKN, MIRI.
The road in.

This is the site map.
Very accurate -- simple.

The yellow-brick road to the Wirawati Barracks.

Then, you pass by Dorms P4, P5, P6 and so on...
Until you reach P9B (my dorm).

The bukit and the toilet.

Another part of the Delta Company dorms (P9 & P10).We're damn far at the back...

Grotesque: My precious book. Lost and found one Saturday.

And here are the wonderful people I've met!
The list is not yet through because there are
tons more in my camera album...

wait for it...

Cath and Do (both Iban).

Her make-up artist: Allynne.

This is the Wednesday when I skipped kawad and went
to the Medical Ward...
I wasn't the only one... XP

THE END.

So, let's take a glance back...
It's been 54 days since I've left. Does anyone miss me? Are you all doin' fine with college/year12?
i know some people aren't XD
Well, I'm missing you all -- friends and family alike. I had this
strange dream some nights ago where Mel came back and
the 3 of us went to her big, luxurious SPA apartment for
a sleepover...

Crazy, no?

Strange, no?

Wierd, no?

It felt so lifelike I was nostalgic when I woke up. I was on my secluded
dorm bed -- freezing, but happy -- until I realised that dream was...
sadly UNTRUE.

But until that big, luxurious SPA apartment dream really
comes true, I'll just duly serve my time in NS...

After all, I've already filled the place with my bootprints already...

I don't know if you like talking loudly just because you think I can't hear. So, it's not okay when I don't listen but it's okay when you don't listen, am I right?

WHY, OH, WHY??

You play tricky, little mind games that are more than cruel. But this house is not a sanatorium. And you're no psychiatrist.

You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.
You're no psychiatrist.

So stop making me the patient and stop forcing your twisted pseudo-reverse psychology onto me, into me, and everywhere around me because it's butchering my sanity MORE than it's getting me to listen.

Every time that I walk off and run from you is my way of saying "STOP!". You can talk, but don't repeat and rinse.

And the five words I never want to hear from you again:

"Why can't you be like me?"

No.
I don't want to be you. I'd hate to be you. I'm phobic of turning into you. Nobody wants to grow up their mum. Me, the world and everyone else. Even you. Because that was what you said once upon a time, and I can remember it more than clearly because I was thinking the exact same thing, too.

So shut up.
I just don't want to hear you anymore.

"The best part about being Chinese is that I get to celebrate New Year twice.

That means, I get to make my resolutions, break them, and make them all over again.

It's an absolutely marvelous thing! And you don't even feel the guilt!"

--a quote from Huey Shan, herself.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR, MINIONS & MUNCHKINS!

keychain maniaaa~~

2009-01-08T17:04:00.003+08:00

You all know I'm a keychain freak, right?

Well, today I made my own:

The first 2 I made are Mei Li's. It's her Christmas present. Mel, don't worry! Yours is stashed away for your return.

These are the new ones, made for my dad's friends in UK...

Comparative size to a triple-A battery.

Close-up of the face. It's a Victorian chair, by the way.

The Back : It's left plain.

This one is Uncle Duncan's...
All the 4 Aces.
XD

This is what's on the back.

And a close up...

This one is Aunty Jenny's.
It's Alice In Wonderland

And on the back...
We have the White Rabbit and his watch.

I bet you're all curious how I made these...

3 simple items:

1. Cheap Nail Polish.

2. Stickers.

3. Keychain base from hardware stores.

And with some tweezers and ingenuity, you'll get the same results as me! XD

as I did, after coming home from YTTC.

And that is...

watch countless movies on my bro's laptop.

Hence, if you see me looking "fluffier" and "cuter" than usual...

This is a random reply to Mel's random post that was a reply to my random message in her c-box about posting random things!

Okay! Let's start!

Now what did I do today?

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

But since I got to make this post random...

I'll

stretch it

and

pull it down

to make it

extremely,

extremely,

long

so that it's

considered

RANDOM!
XDD

Well

sebagai kesimpulan...

I believe

that

this

is

as

long

the friendship

I

want

us, three, 3

to have.

So...

Through bad times

times 6!
(can't forget that.)

here's a big cheer

to our friendship!

Viva forever~~

I bought a NEW bag

2009-01-01T19:03:00.005+08:00

So, what can this new bag do?

Let me tell you...

It's damn amazing.

See, first it's a sling bag...

And now...

It's a tote bag!

By gad, it's a MIRACLE!

So stylish!

Disclaimer: This sling-bag-changing-into-tote-bag is not a miracle. The bag just has foldable handles. This is not a miracle. I repeat: This is not a miracle. The bag is not a miracle. There is no miracle.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Escape N.S. -- Plan #1

2008-12-30T19:45:00.006+08:00

do you have a minute?
i'd like to share
with you
a proper moment
outside the circle and under the sky
i'm standing and i'm waiting
for this year
to fly and pass...
quickly.

I must swear to eat when necessary.

I must swear to lose weight like a sheep shedding its wool.

I must swear to drown myself in diet pills.

Because?

Reason of National Service exemption: Too damn underweight.

Aha. This is such a brilliant plan...

the highway home.

2008-12-29T14:59:00.005+08:00

This is the end of the
30th Batch
Youth Theological Training Course.

training? my butt. i feel like i went for a holiday.

I'm Home!

2008-12-26T21:36:00.003+08:00

When I woke up this morning, I was wondering if I could stuff all my belongings back into my bag without having to sit on the lid. Then, I looked around and saw everyone else in my dorm getting all their stuff in with relative ease -- like they had some Mary Poppin's bag-of-infinity or something and I had this thought that Damn! I'm going to miss them like crazy, that's for sure...

But.

But I do know that there's no real parting because one year can pass very quickly, almost like a sneeze. I'll see everyone next year again but for those who I won't see... well, God has some way of reuniting us ... eventually.

Though I was 2 years older than everyone else in my class, it seemed like all of us were ageless. I got along with everyone but to me, it was as though we were all of different ages at times.

When I was high, and they were high, we were 15.

When I was serious, and they were serious, we were 17.

When I pooled my contributions, and they pooled theirs, we suddenly became 50 (and like mini preachers). You cannot absolutely put a thumb on the maturity and critical thinking a person has regardless of age. Sometimes, someone can seem like a complete dunderhead but once he's gotten into his serious zone, he's absolutely untouchable.

I love my church members. All of them.

And along the way, over the period of these 3 weeks or 21 days, I found it amazing to progressively see changes in the attitudes of some people: Those that have always let others serve them food actually served others first.

And those that never spoke up before or talked were actually ... quite noisy.

It's like what Robert Ripley (from Ripley's Believe it or Not) would say... "Unbelievable? Believe it." And after that, you just gotta thank God for all of this.

Especially now that it's ended and over and I'm finally home.

bye.

where are you going?
now that everything is gone
and there's no place left
to go on home.

when the world's already so full
of liars and felons,
you think there's only you alone?

pearly-fair skin, dark eyes, sexy bod, and
his very, very nice white teeth.
Ah, oh.
Plus when I was watching his concert for the first time, I thought:

"Wow, that's a pretty lady."

Woosh! Lady, much?
But yeah, he's a certified XY phenotype male.

doll craze//love// <3

2008-11-17T20:13:00.006+08:00

I'm girl-lified all over again! Just look what the Japanese doll manufacturers have done.

Introducing Super Dollfie, a brand of dolls manufactured by the Japanese company Volks. They are the height of your standard blonde bimbo doll, Barbie, and do come in height ranges of child, adolescent and adult. Another thing that catches the eye about these beautifully crafted dolls are the accurate details in porportion of a real person's body.
Yes, they aren't as ridiculously tall as Barbie is.

The unique quality of an SD doll is that each doll has its individual name, hairstyle and even face. Yes. The manufacturers treat each doll NOT like a product of the factory but as a masterpiece and hence, each doll has their own individual look save for clothing.
But clothing side of the SD dolls, the meticulous detailing of the doll's clothes will most absolutely drop any jaw, even that of the fashion blind. The SD dolls sport intricately designed clothes that cover all the aspects of REAL human high fashion clothing... lace, ribbons, straps, accessories like earrings and brooches can be seen on the appropriate parts on the dolls. If placed on a pedestal, they're are likely chances the doll would be the better dressed than its human exhibitor!

Lastly: Yes. The SD dolls come in the opposite gender of "pretty-looking" boy dolls. Do take a look, my fellow doll fanatic....

(click to view enlarge the pictures)

The William Doll.

The Garnet Doll.

The Madoka Doll.

The Pearl Doll.

Now you can't say that they're NOT fabulous because they ARE.
But if you are a fellow collector like me -- actually I'm a hoarder, but it doesn't matter -- don't cast yourself in dreamland trying to go after these exquisite dolls. Each doll costs a bounty of US$990 each, and that's not even including tax.
So, take my advice. If the Super Dollfie line of dolls has inspired you to go doll collecting, stick to that conventional bimbo doll, the Barbie.
At least she comes in local ringgit....

add maths on a friday

2008-11-15T13:12:00.003+08:00

I went up to Subang Jaya yesterday for an extra class in Add. Maths. It's F-R-E-E!
My uncle = Mr. Teacher.
Ho-ho!

The Subang guys are so different than our KL people. I'm sitting there, ~~cowering~~ bent over my paper because the class was frickin' crammed in and was way packed -- I was sandwiched between two unknown boys, what the hell?!? -- and suddenly, the Chinese dude next to me goes:

"Suck cock."

Really loudly. Really vocally. Really in front of my uncle teaching on the board.

...

...

...

Like, what the hell??
But, don't worry. There's more...

"Tiu."
"F*ck."
"Ma chi bai."
"Damn tiu."

*withers and dies*
Like, lol? And they were coming in from both sides, too...

Then, one of the boys began this interesting story. It's about this boy, Vikram (I think) -- kind of sounds like that Bikram Yoga thing, no? Haha.
Yes.
About Vikram.
During the Sejarah paper, this boy in his class let Vikram copy off his objective paper. BUT what that boy did was blacken all the WRONG answers before letting Vikram copy and then, 15 minutes before the exam ended, changed it.

Even more what-the-hell things these Subang people do...!

But according to my uncle, this Vikram boy has been cheating in his exams since monkey-knows-when...

So I guess he deserves it la.

Cheer with me, ladies and budak-budaks.
The time of our life has just arrived smack on the ground like Santa has just dropped his sack of Christmas prezzies. Exacterally! SPM is in season now and who in the good world is as revved up as us Malaysian 17-year olds, huh?
I'll bet my sexy tush that no one is...

Right.
If you're wondering why my blog post is so out-of-the-world and knarlier than usual, I'll let you have a think about it yourself...

Please answer this question. Choose only A, B, C, or D ONLY. Do not attempt to cheat.

1) Why is Huey Shan in such a terrible, snarky mood?
I. Because SPM is ~~around the corner~~ already here.
II. Because her hair is boof-tastically messy as of SPM.
III. Becayse SPM is already here and she is poxed with fever.
IV. Because she can't seem to give a damn about SPM.

A. I, II, III and IV only.
B. I, II, III and IV only.
C. I, II, III and IV only.
D. I, II and III only.
E. None of the above.

If you chose A, B, or C, you have no faith in me.
If you chose D, you obviously feel sympathy for me. Thank you. XD
The correct answer for this question is E because it shows that you have not studied, did not study and will not study...
Like me! *does the Nanny laugh*

This is me on the Tueday SPM started. I ain't no photogenic model but it's just to show everyone out there the artistic impression of SPM frustration. Look at the clock (it's handmade by me, by the way), you'll see it's 6:50 a.m right before I left school.

"dear lord,
as we all sit for spm this year,
please guide us and bequeth thy children with
godlike stamina... especially to our the regions
of our right hands (left for left-handers)...
please clear our minds but not so that we forget
everything and keep us in the pink of
health. amen."

3 weeks later I'm still doing the same thing.
Regrets? A little.

Anything to make right? Nope.

ramen~~

2008-10-08T21:48:00.008+08:00

Made ramen that day. I was out of ramen noodles though so I used udon instead.
They work fine too!
This is a real working recipe so here's how:

You will need:
Ramen noodles + Soup
PS: Prepare the noodles before hand. Do I need to tell you how noodles are cooked? =\

METHOD:

Chop onions, carrots and garlic into fine, fine bits. You
can omit the carrots. Personally, I don't like the taste in
my soup.

Fry 'em in sesame oil. Do you know why? Sesame oil is
ultra, uber healthier than normal cooking oil.
Plus, it makes your soup smell like sakura flowers. Just kidding.
But it will make the soup smell very, very good.

Prawns are optional. Fry them until cooked in the carrot, garlic
and onion mix.

Add water. 200 ml should do it.
A ~~sickly~~ earthy brown colour is normal -- if you burnt the ingredients
while frying. But, of course it's not like I did that anyway...
(*cough*)

Add a tablespoon of chicken stock powder to the water and a slice of ginger. Boil
it. At this point, it's gonna be like a steamboat where the flavour of your soup depends
on what you add in to it... meat, veggies, MSG -- you like la.
But don't forget to put in sugar and soy sauce. The amount you put in
is according to your taste. So you get the logic there, right?
=]

Finally, pour your soup in a bowl, all over the noodles and ta-da!
Say your prayers and then, eat!

My last comments?:

Well, I added in an egg for extra slurp. DO NOT follow what I did because you will never, ever that that extra slurp in a long shot. What you will get instead, is a mushy pile of I-don't-know-what in your bowl.
NOT TASTY!
Trial and error; I did not like it. XP

end.

With reference to my post of two days ago (29 Sept - Leo Club Charity Dinner), I have decided to make a list of good etiquettes that all of you should follow:

1) Clapping is a polite gesture of respect. If you do not respect the person making the speech (say Badawi), then clap twice as loud and fast than your normal clap. Cheering helps.
I, for one, always clap for him. Especially after his Hari Raya advertisement on Astro.
Has any of you seen it yet? Anybody??

2) Farting outloud is an ungraceful sound and is not a polite gesture either to demonstrate satisfaction of the dinner towards a host.
If you must fart, inch it out.
But if you like to show your appreciation aloud: Either burp and say, "Excuse me! But the food is just so-oo good!" or shout loudly and fart while you shout to mask the sound.
If there is a smell, glance at the person next to you and say, "Holy Je-Bus! What was that, man?"

more to come when I think of it.

Leo Club Charity Dinner

"Ohmigawd. That stupid dude smoking.

Can't breathela. No air."
--QiJun

Qijun and I went for her friend's organisation's charity dinner yesterday night on Sunday.

Details:

Date: 28 September

Place: Pandan Lake Seafood Restaurant
Time: 7:00 - 10:30

I reached the place really early, like about 6:20, because the brother had to go to a friend's. Real early. But somehow, I got the place mixed up and we ended up at Pandan Lake Club instead. Which made sense why the receptionist was so confused when we checked with her...

"Leo Club ada dinner kat sini kah?"

"Dinner? Leo Club? You mean, birthday dinner ka?"

"Birthday dinner???"

We took a peek at the nearby ballroom and saw a banner: "HAPPY 65th BIRTHDAY MURAGAN!!"

('omgwtf?? zha dou!!')

But it was okay.
Qijun later called called to correct the venue. So we detoured and went back. When, I got out of the car, saw her ... AND HER FRIEND! XD

He was wearing a suit, a formal suit. So, I think Qi Jun went high. XD

Dinner came after some speeches, a bell ring, and a multimedia presentation. No one listened, which was no surprise as this is memang the "brilliance" of our chinese-educated bunch. Real polite. I bet they would be keeled over dead at a real dinner function...

Oh, wait!
That's only if they ever get the invite to one.

Yeah, they didn't even know how to clap at the end of speeches too, you know? They should have their necks wringed out for being so unapprieciative of the effort the Leo Club put in for this....

I'll gladly stake my own hands for it.

First dish. My favourite.

The Soup. My other favourite.

I brought my cam.

The waiter filled Qi Jun's glass. Really full.

Those are the orphans.
And they are presenting their artwork.

Toilet.

This is what we got for you. It's got a nice title:
HAND IN HAND TOGETHER.... and its autographed. =]

When I got home, it was 11. Daddy bought Starbucks on the way back at PGRM and it was goo-ood! Java Chip, yeah, cafe kiddies!

And I have a confession:
I stole coffee beans from Starbucks! Then, I lost them in the car.

Who doesn't love food? And who doesn't love Japanese inovations? I know I don't.
I think that Japan goes beyond "kawaii" and the mutated lala equility: "cawaii" for many, many obvious reasons.
The creativity is good. The food is good.
And so are their delish bentou boxes*.

*lunch box

JAPANESE LUNCH BOXES SUPREME!

Pink&Black Sakura Design:
This one is my personal favourite.

Here is:
The Cute Animal stack:

The Wood Series:

Don't you adore this butterfly/wood combo?

Hello Kitty spoon&fork set.
I had to put these in because they are cute.
Plus, you can't eat without forks and
spoons.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
