24...

So the 26th came and went, and now I'm officially 2 dozen years old... If that even makes any sense. Haven't really achieved much, let alone much as I would like. Some people my age are already earning 100,000++ pounds per week! Yes yes, I am talking bout professional footballers. But hey, if they can get there during the same amount of time, why not me?

One sad thing is, I was sick yesterday. Think it started with a sore throat (but not the kind you lose your voice) from taking shots of Mr Takila and Mr Smirnoff on Saturday... Felt like sandpaper grinding each other on the walls of my throat on Sunday but by Monday it eased up but in came the cough... Don't wanna get into details here but it involves a lot of coughing and quite an amount of 'green stuff'... So I pretty much spent my birthday at home, either lying in bed or in front of the screen...But then again, I guess I should be thankful that I even get to celebrate being a year older. Some people will never get the chance to do so.


Drink with caution, side effects include blackouts, vomiting and sorethroats....

On to other things, if there is one thing I have to say I dislike about HELP UC, it has to be the way the different departments are ran. Each department (econs, business, psych) has a totally different way of doing things that makes me wonder at times, are they still under the same institute? For instance, in the econs department, all we have to do is to get the timetable, see which subjects we get, and go. Whereas in the business department, have to register for which lectures and tutorial groups you wanna join on a first come first serve basis. As for the other departments, I'm not so sure, but it can't be any much the same...

Now, if the student was to say stuck in that one department for their entire duration of the course, it's fine, probably after the first week or the first semester, they will get used to it. But if they were to be like me for instance, taking different subjects from different departments, its a real pain in the ass. Not only do I have to run to different departments to get my timetable, I have to arrange it myself. Times like these makes me miss TARc =\.

So it all boiled down to today when I (I'm from the econs department) went to see the coordinator for the business department to register for my tutorial group which I had no idea I had to do in the first place...

Me: Kak, I nak register for marketing tutorial group 6 boleh tak...
Coordinator: Hah, apasal now ni u nak register? Anyways, group 6 sudah penuh...
Me: What? I tak tau kena register untuk tutorial lah kak, can lah tolong skit, my jadual pack d...
Coordinator: Awak mia department coordinator nvr tell u that this department need to register kah? ok, give me ur ID and class that u clash... These are the only available tutorial groups.....

After taking a long hard look, deciding and changing, I made up my mind. See it is not that easy when you've actually planned your initial schedule to near perfection...

Me: Ok kak, I'll join this group lah, eh thn can I register for other subjects oso ah?
Coordinator: *giving me the O.O wtf look* you mean you langsung tak register?
Me: *givin the -.-' face* No la kak, I dah cakap, I don't know this department need to register tutorials...
Coordinator: Ok ok, here are the available slots for each subject, btw, apasal I call your department, takde orang angkat har?
Me: Oh, sekarang lunch break ma, 1230-230 they all break. Ok lah, I'll go for this and this tutorial..
Coordinator: *O.O wtf look again* Ada lunch break ka??? 2 jam lagi?? kita sini lunch pun buka juga...

So after rearranging my timetable for the 3rd time (I'm sure got at least one more time to come) I can finally sit back and relax for just that little while... But actually, I get why the administrators here give each department the liberty of setting up their own way. Some departments have way more students then others so certain things must be done this way and not that. But still, it doesn't change the fact that it is a pain in the ass...

Oh and it didn't take long for the coordinator from my department to call me and ask wtf was all the commotion about. She can even say I make her 'lose face' in front of the business dept ppl. -.-'. Luckily she's quite friendly and given the our department isn't that big, she does know almost all the students quite well so, can say it was quite a light hearted banter we had...

Oh look, now pig heads are being thrown into mosques. Another May 13th incident? Well, all I can say for now is, after watching sooooo many movies, it is pretty easy to say this is one of those reverse psychology, framing someone type of gag. Hmmm...

What Better Way To End The Week...

After 5 days of dragging my ass out of bed for the first week of class, watching the whole name calling over a 'higher being' debacle unfold (actually that was pretty amusing) and a tragic sudden loss of an acquaintance, I really needed a 'pick me up'.

And what better way than to look forward to the weekend matches of football. So far it has been good news, better news, great news and well, silly potty one. Good news: watching Liverpool and Real Madrid falter. Seriously, the only feeling better than watching your team winning is watching your team's arch enemies choke up. =D

Better news: United returned to their winning ways with a 3-0 thumping of Burnley thanks once again to the dynamic duo of Rooney and Valencia. And it pays to have them in my fantasy team though I made a wrong captain choice this week so far =.=...


Moment of relief...

Great news: Barcelona absolutely obliterated Sevilla with a score of 4-0 with Pedro, whom if I'm not mistaken is only 18 or 19 scoring his 15th goal this season... Oi Berbatov, saw that mou? Kid a decade younger and MUCH cheaper doing way better than you... Adding icing on the cake of course was World Player of the Year Messi scoring his 100th and 101st goal for the club at the age of 22!! At 22, I was basically flunking college...


Should be scoring with girls at his age, but I'm not complaining...

And the silly potty one? How the fark can Chelsea without Drogba or Essien tapao Sunderland 7-2 with the score already 4-0 in the 34th minute? Aih... hopeless Black Cats... Watching the highlights, I had a strong feeling that the Sunderland team was actually Chelsea's youth team in disguise out for a training match.


Swore something was amiss when Malouda scored...

Oh, about the politically fuelled (come on, even a blind man can see that) name calling thing. Its one thing to fight over something you believe in, but doing so over some imaginary friend made up by adults who apparently lives 'up there'? Seriously, what are these people on?



So yeah, a pretty good way to end the week with I must say.

p/s: Sandra, if there is a Heaven, I know you will be up there reading this. Though our paths cross just briefly, you are exactly like your friends described : funny, cheerful and bubbly. Here's to you finding peace once and for all. You will be missed.

It Was Legen...Dary!...

(WARNING: Do not attempt to read the following on an empty stomach. I won't be held responsible for anyone's stomach growling when there is no food at reach)





2010 couldn't have kicked of in a better way. Couple of months ago I suggested we all went for an island retreat some time around New Year cos I know most of us needed the break especially those overworked ones (no, I'm not referring to the one who gets of at 6.15pm and claims to be overworked). But due to some unforeseen circumstances or rather typical Malaysian 'besok lusa' mentality, it did not happen. So I thought it would be nice to have a BBQ. Not just any BBQ, no, when I suggest a BBQ, it has to be LEGENDARY!


Yong doing work, one for the album indeed...

Quite frankly, I'm kinda sick with the chicken wings and measly looking hotdogs on the fire, well I thought of making a comparison bout the hot dogs but I guess I'd better not. Now don't get me wrong, I do enjoy BBQs in the past with all those stuff and all, especially thankful to the people who took the time to organize and cook but I think its time for an upgrade. So up popped my idea of having the most legendary BBQ to date with burgers, lamb and cheese sausages amongst others.


I give you, "The Pit"...

So as the days drew closer, plans started to come together and the necessary stuff and ingredients were bought. Heck we were so ecstatic bout it that we went shopping at 9am on New Years Day! We manage to delegate jobs to those who were there and me being me, the only thing I was interested in doing was the burgers! I thought, "Hey, all those years of eating McD, Burger King, Carl's Junior, A&W, Ramli Burger, Burger Maut, etc. should give me quite a good idea of how to make an awesome burger rite?".


If you smell what the chef is cookin'...

Now besides the awesome food, what else is essential in making an epic BBQ happen? Why the BBQ pit itself of course. None of us had those high end BBQ grills that have temperature control and the one that Liang had was well, a bit too small for my plans. Wanted to use those for the sausages though. But I figured, we have like 4.5 qualified engineers around (the 0.5 comes from yours truly with a diploma :P), impossible we can't design a grill right? Oh and we have a medic in training in case shit happened. We have the resources, so how hard could it be? With some help from my dad, Zhou, Daryl, Yong and Phang came out with what I must say is a marvellous piece of engineering.


Awesomeness at work...

As for me, I was busy making ketchup, yes ketchup. Zhou at first asked why make when you can buy. After giving him 'the look' and giving him a taste of my concoction, I guess he knew then. Though not all of our food was 100% self made. Example, Yong was suppose to do the marinade for the lamb himself but his mom got in the way. Zhou was suppose to make croquette (sorry if spelling wrong ah, my england not the powderful) but his grandma took over and my mom had a hand in my burger making attempt. Thankful we are, cos without them, who knows what we would've been eating.


The dude staring at the camera wanted to ditch this and go Penang instead...

Anyways, when it came time to start the fire, it started to drizzle so with a slight change of location, THE BBQ got under way. See not even that imaginary person in the sky could stop me :P. Had Daryl and Phang on duty for the lamb. And I have to admit, Tesco marinaded lamb tastes pretty damn good! Of cos the home marinade one kicked Tesco butt lah but hey. I guess hours watching the Asian Food Channel on Astro thought me a thing or 2 about determining how well done to cook meat cos the ones that came out were tender, juicy and I have to say perfect! So kudos to the chefs!


Concentration is key to perfect grilling...

Next up was the burgers, already before it got on the grill, I proudly announced it was gonna kick so much ass, this burgers eat Burger Mauts for breakfast! This time, I took over the grill cos I wasn't gonna let anyone else mess with nothing less then perfection. Yes yes, I am gloating quite a lot here but hey, its my party and I do what I want to rite :P. Anyhow, remembering important tips to cooking the burgers surely did help, namely 1) Do not turn them until one side is done 2) Do not press down on the burgers. And how did it turn out in the end? I guess it was THAT good that no one bothered to take pictures of people eating em. All busy stuffing their face full. Well, the look on their faces says it all and for me, a job well done. Mr. Yeah even said it was better than McDs, and coming from him, I take that as the utmost compliment!


My master pieces...

Well, after the starters and mains, everyone was visibly stuffed like a Christmas turkey but the night was still young so what better way to carry on then to have a drinking game? Now while we were out shopping, me and Yong asked the rest who followed us who wanted to drink and one by one said 'no' or assume those not around would not. So fine, we just bought 1 bottle of tequilla. When the games got underway however, one by one begin to show their stripes and drank along.



Ahem, step one to cook an awesome burger is...

I for one was pleased cos if it was just me and Yong and Zhou drinking, it wouldn't be so fun. And thankfully Siang became our saviour by bringing a half bottle of Absolut which we cleaned dry as well! This couldn't have been achieved if not for Yong's brilliant idea for a drinking game. I was surprised to see how fast the drinks went! Another good thing for me was that no one puked or got wasted. Though I think some were pretty close to!


Great food deserves great company...

Before calling it a night, I had one more surprised up my sleeve : Peanut butter banana shake. Granted that night's batch wasn't my finest. Think the one earlier in the day was better. For those who want to know, inspiration came from Paddington's House of Pancakes. And after the cleaning up, everyone went home at 3 am. I really do hope everyone had a blast and by the looks of it at the end of the day, I hope I have my reputation intact (cyeh, 'sif I have one to begin with o.O). Drew pointed out that it was the same time that I actually said it would end on Facebook, now hows that for good hosting!


When the drinks start pouring, the horns start growing...

The next day, I was seriously burnt out. Don't know if it was the excessive indulging of good food or the way I slept and certainly not the liquor, but I felt very lethargic and aching. Haha, signs of old age. Slept almost the whole day in fact. But most importantly, NO trips to the toilet for unscheduled stops! Asked a few of them and seems that everyone did not suffer from any food poisoning. Hahaha. Daryl and me were relieved to hear that. Unless of course someone contracts mad cow disease within the next 10-14 days and turns into zombies!


One for the road before he jets to the States...

Of course couldn't have done it without the help of everyone who cleaned, carried, arranged, cooked that day. So as cliché a speech as it gets, without you guys (and girl) being there, it wouldn't have been LEGEN...wait for it...DARY! For those who must be wondering why or where I keep/get that line, here's the man himself to explain:



Oh, I really do hope the next one (when ever , where ever) will be better then this!

In A Nutshell...

As the 1st decade of the new millennium winds down, 2009 for me can be described in short as one full of ups and downs. To not bore you all to death (we've had ENOUGH of those already this year) I'll try to summarize it as short and simple as possible. If there was a song that I can think of at the top of my head right now to sum it all up it would be Katy Perry's Hot & Cold. Yes, not so rock-metal-type of song usually associated with my music taste but hey, it has been that kinda year for me.

Best moment of the year has got to be being able to watch Manchester United LIVE in our very own backyard. Everyone knows what a die hard fan I am so it might not come as a surprise eh. But spare a thought to the tragic bombings in Jakarta for which if it did not happen, this would've been THE worst moment of my life, let alone year. However, it all went well and part of my life long goal has been achieved. The next part is to actually go to Old Trafford and watch them in a competitive match. 2010 perhaps?


Dream coming true...

Close runners up as far as I can think of would be those road trips to Penang, getting a new laptop, quitting TAR College and starting afresh, finding new ways to get hammered, watching The Foo Fighters Live via Facebook, going white water rafting.


The Power of Facebook...

Worst moment of the year, well I tend not to remember bad things for long, so I have to say, waking up early in the morning, checking Facebook and realizing Micheal Jackson had just pass away. That totally spoiled my mood for the entire day.

Which brings me to the main theme of 2009: Death. I am well aware that people die everyday, but famous people? Ones that I know of and not some old fart whose time is due anyway is just sad. Probably 09 will be remembered more for the demise of the Gloved One than the election of America's first Black president. Other notable ones include Sir Bobby Robson, Patrick Swayze, Brittany Murphy and most recently, The Rev, drummer for Avenged Sevenfold. On the local front lets not forget film maker Yasmin Ahmad and victims of political evil Teoh Beng Hock and Kuga.


Story of The Year?...

Which leads to my bleak outlook at our country for 09. I knew we were already in the shits back then, but this year has really opened my eyes to see how much shit we are actually in. And by the looks of it, 2010 will reek of crap spilled over. From riots to fugitives to murders to corruption to racial incitement and deaths and suffering of innocents. Literally every single offence you can think of, it has happened at the highest level. And to think the new 'slogan' for our country is 1Malaysia. Will it be better or worse next year? All I can say is I love my country (yes you read right) but I hate the people running it.


The State of The Nation...

Right enough of that, lastly though it wouldn't be right to wrap up my review without including the girlfriend. She has been through the best and worst parts of the year with me, through thick and thin. For that I do consider myself lucky. Happy New Year to you in Hong Kong love.


Let The Good Times Roll...

So there, wrapped it up pretty short right? In a couple of days time it all goes back to 1 and we shall start the cycle again. All I can do now is show the middle finger ..i.. to the bad times and the devil horns \m/ to the good of 2009. As for the upcoming year, 'Just Bring It'. How has 2009 been for you?

Injury Crisis...

I think everyone knows that in contact sports, injuries are part and parcel of the game. Heck, Manchester United has 12 players out at the moment, majority of them made up of the defence. Well, at least we are at the top of some kind of table.


Dear Santa, for Christmas please give us a class defender - Fergie...

And if I was a player on the squad (oh how I wish!), the number would be up to 13. Well I suppose playing futsal 3 times in 4 days is bound to take a tow somewhere down the line on me. Firstly, I strained my wrist a little. Odd thing was, I had no idea how it happened and all I knew is after 3 hours of futsal on that day, only when I came back did I feel the pain. Only theory I can come up with is I got injured when using my hand to cushion my fall. Aih... life...


At least I could still strum...

One of the reasons I dislike playing futsal on turf is because of the major carpet burns I get. Seriously, each time I play on the turf/green court, I can say 90% of the time I get carpet burn. -.-'... And I'm sure most of you know that getting water onto the wound is a major pain in the nuts!


Carpet burn #5647

And to sum it all up, my reoccurring injury on my left knee well, reoccurred last night. Luckily I had my knee brace on or I think I would've seriously twisted it already. Yeah, today left knee internally injured, right knee superficially. Putting on pants has never been this troublesome!

But I can consider myself lucky as this is by far the most serious injury I've had playing futsal/football. I know people who have broken bones and torn ligaments so I'll quite whining now =P.

And to add salt to injury, I will have to extract another wisdom tooth ( am I not unwise enough already?) soon. Aih...

Football Karma...

Some call it fate, some call it destiny, some call it karma, some even call it an act of God. What ever it is, this season's Champions League draw has been throwing up seriously ironic and yet scrumptious ties.

Case and point, initial group stages, Real Madrid vs AC Milan: The return of Kaka to his once hunting ground, claiming he wouldn't leave. Well he hadn't left long enough as those grandpa's in the Milan defence still remembered his playing style and marked him perfectly.

Then it was Barcelona vs Inter Milan. The return of Zlatan and Eto'o who ironically switched sides during the off season. Oh there was Maxwell as well for Barca but that didn't really matter.

Now, right after the draw for the knockout stages were done, this mysterious force can be seen at play again. David Beckham's Christmas wish came early cos couple of days ago, he said he wished to return to Old Trafford with Milan in the next stage. And lull and behold, he got it. Must've a good boy this year eh Mr. Becks.

Then there is Real Madrid vs Lyon. I highlighted this tie cos Madrid do have a former Lyon player, key and star player in fact, who goes by the name of Karim Benzema. Prolific player no doubt but maybe not such a prolific match cos he hasn't been getting his chances at the White House.

But the draw that takes the cap has to be the return of The Special One to Stamford Bridge as Inter has been paired with Chelsea. And with current Chelsea gaffer Ancelotti previously managing arch rival Milan, sparks are sure to fly!

So yeah, come February, another set of mouth-watering ties are in store. On a related manner, Mr. Wy has finally chosen a team to support. Well, at least now you will be able to enjoy or suffer (which ever makes u happy) the turmoil and stress of being a supporter of THAT club. Seriously, I know die hard supporters giving up on watching the team play cos of that fat waiter that seems to have the managerial job in the dugout. Well at least on paper the have an easy draw in the Europa League. Yes wy, the taunting has already begun :P!

Once Bitten Twice Shy...

Well, that's the expression a normal person would do when being caught doing something bad. But apparently here in 1Malaysia, that just doesn't seem to apply. Remember this ?:














Notice the mentally disabled guy holding the cow on the left...

Well the same bunch of people are at it again...


Here he is again with the SAME outfit...

This is a retaliation to an incident where an opposition MP stepped on pictures of 3 BN pictures. 2 Malays and 1 CHINESE... So this mentally challenged people thought it would be a smart idea to do the same... With much more than just stepping on the faces...


'Peeing' or asking to 'suck dick'?

My main question is where is the police? RELA? Water cannons? Tear gas? It is after all IN FRONT of the Shah Alam court house. I seriously doubt these people even have permits to gather. What, they gonna tell the cops 'Nak apply permit untuk pijak muka MP PKR' ?


At least cows are more useful and smarter than this lot...

Seriously, if these are the kind of people who are fighting for malay rights, no wonder they can't progress any further then they already have. There must be more civilised ways to go about this matter. So can we call these people degil macam lembu?

Clearly 1Malaysia but 2 standards. If its any of the minority races that did this, by now they'd be hulled up by the ISA. Its not that I wanna bash these kinda people but when it's right there in the open served on a silver platter, how not to?

It Went *Crrcck* *Crrcckk*...

That was the sound I heard when the dentist pulled out my wisdom tooth or should I say twisted it like it was lickerish with the sound of someone grounding nuts and yanked it out with two tries...

Who knew that the cause for my bottom gum to swell was because of my top wisdom tooth pressing on the gum. All this while I thought my bottom tooth was being the problem one.

Good news is, 1 week of pain and discomfort is finally over =D. Bad news is I probably have to go see him again in 2 weeks to massacre pull out the bottom one pending X-ray. And that's the one that's gonna be a bitch so I've heard. FML.

Think only PYH knew bout this and the fella can tell me summore why I come back to do when I can do in KL. I don't know how much it will cost in KL but back here, private clinic summore only cost me RM70 in total and that also I can claim from my mom :D.

Ah... can't seem to get Foo Fighters' 'A Cold Day In The Sun' and 'Everlong' out of my head!!! Not that I'm complaining though... ^^\m/

In The News Today...

As ever I find that our nation's mainstream printed media is fast becoming tabloid stuff. In other words, 'this kinda news also wanna publish meh?' In today's page 3 of The Star had this as the main story : Obese housewife back on her feet.

Apparently she hasn't been able to stand for 2 years (!!) now and that standing for more then 10 minutes for her was a pain... Now she can stand for 30 minutes. And she's close to tears! She says it was reported as such a feat... WTF! Climbing Everest is a feat, battling and beating cancer is a feat, climbing up a flight of stairs with 1 leg is a feat.. standing up on 2 is NOT.


Its A Miracle~!!... pic courtesy of The Star

I agree with Ricky Gervais when he said that obesity is NOT a disease. He said, when obese people were still at fat stage and stepped on the scale, didn't they have it in mind to stop eating for *insert anything u believe in here* sake?

In this case I really have no pity for the woman... Her 11 year old kid had to quit school at Standard 1.. Standard freaking 1!!! to support her. FUUUkk.. Didn't she stop to think that 'hmmm.. I'm starting to gain a lil bit too much weight. maybe I should cut down on my food and try to go exercise?'

Getting down to the point, if they suffer by themselves and die in a pool of their own fat is fine by me, but when they drag others around to their misery, their own kids for instance, thats crossing the line for me.

Oh and get this, her waist size is a whopping 71cmin! and that is after she went some therapy and shrunk from 77cmin! machaohai, did it ever occur to her that when shopping malls like Jusco or Parkson stops selling pants for NORMAL people, she should do something about her weight?? Don't think poverty can be put at fault for this, after all exercise is FREE, don't have to go to Fitness First or Celebrity Fitness to lose weight ok.

Shit, even the army had to come and help rebuild her house! I know that our army has nothing better to do then blow people up at times la but still to have the army to help you...

The complete report can be found here and here.

Life's A Drag...

This has got to be one of the more boring weeks I've had to endure. Well, for one all of my assignments (group and solo) is done and dusted. So a big weight off my shoulders there. Funny thing is I don't remember working so hard on my assignments before during my days at TAR. Hmmm, could it be that they don't give a shit bout plagiarism so last minute work is ok where as HELP uses some online system that manages to check out how much you copy from the net or book sources!, or could it be that I just didn't give a shit bout TAR assignments since it was so dry and yawnz?

Anyways, finals will be in about less then 10 days time. Shit thing is 1 paper on the 1st then have to wait a whole 2 weeks for the next paper!! =.=' ... Which will give me much time to study or much time to slack off in between... Kinda feel like out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Since it has been November Raini-ing almost everyday, it does make the whole mood to get up and do something kinda die off. Good thing is there is finally football coming back this weekend. Bad thing is full of fucking injuries to my fantasy player.. though I'm sure I'm not the only one whining bout this.

To add to the shittyness of the week per say, the net has been on hyper fucked up mode (what's new btw) that not only is it slow but somehow some turd decided to shut down the site I download my series from. Don't think its the same turd that tried to shut down the site I do for gossip though but it still kinda pisses me off. But with net speeds like this, wouldn't make a difference. Thankfully still have trusty torrent to do the job for me.

Think this dark cloudy mood is also infecting almost everyone of us. Even the political scene that I oh so love to bash here has dried up. Nothing new or exciting for me to piss and moan about.. -.-''

Well, in the midst of all this, at least I have live concerts of Metallica, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Foo Fighters, Avenged Sevenfold and Radiohead to keep me occupied during the weekend. Heck I might as well get started on my revision... Another thing that has never happened to me before! o.O...

On a lighter note, I am truly surprised that the Prosperity Meal @ McD's is out already!! And it is still not even Christmas yet!! I have always been a fan of the Prosperity Burger since it was 1st introduced... heck even my non McD eating dad likes it. But ever since past few years where the burger shrunk but the price got jacked, it has become just one of those commodities that I have to have at least once a season... Oh well looks like the week ain't THAT dull..


Prosperous shyttt...

Gah.. another 5 hours till United plays...

The Word On The Street Is...

That guitar/rock God Slash will be releasing his solo album next year... Well, that is a long way for it to be hyped out now.. but the shit that got me all jacked up is the line up of artist that will be appearing on his album.


Girls want him... Guys wanna be like him...

Amongst those who are slated to feature on the album are Ozzie Osbourne [Black Sabbath], Chris Cornell [ex-Audioslave], M. Shadows [Avenged Sevenfold], Kid Rock, Alice Cooper, Flea [Red Hot Chilli Peppers], Dave Grohl [Foo Fighters] and even Fergie!!

Holy shit man... that's an all star line up if I ever saw one... Its like erm... BoA and..errm... who summore arrhhh... Trying to put this awesomeness in a perspective Yong, Phil can understand but FAIL...

But if this rumour is true it is going to be LEGEND...wait for it... DARY!!!

Justice Is Served...

Read this article in The Star last Friday bout a lady ramming down a snatch theft in her Perodua Myvi to death in KL. See this is when greed can get you killed. According to the report the dumb ass snatch theft was given RM42 but was not satisfied so he demanded her phone instead. But when the woman refused to give it up, he snatched her handbag instead.

Yes, a Perodua Myvi that had me laughing in stitches when Top Gears' Jeremy Clarkson did a review..


Calls it a MeeVi...

Well, what happened next was pure WIN in my books. She ran him over crashing him into a golf club fencing. Son of a bitch died on the spot! Ah, for more details go here.

But no good deed goes unpunished as according to the cops, she will be charged under Section 304 of the Penal Code as culpable homicide no amounting to murder.

My question to any lawyers or future lawyers out there ...errm.. Joanne? What are the charges will she be sentenced if she is found 'guilty'? Jail?

On a similar note, is there any law that protects the victim if he/she acts out in self defence and lets say kills the guy (like in the case above but only intentionally)? Or lets say I kena mug, then in self defence, I beat the living shit out of the guy, can the guy sue me for assault and battery? Or is there some self defence law where I can get off Scott free?

Cos I seriously won't mind running over some mat rempits if I was being chased by them. Taking out the trash of the nation so to say.

An Almost Perfect Weekend...

Could have been more perfect if not for...


Recipe for Destruction...

1) Damn FM2010 disc requires the DVD to play.

2) Metallica concert sounds SUCKS! Feeling so ripped off.. haiz.. but still at least the video quality still ok larr..

Though this will be the closest similarity ever me and Yong will have in terms of music. Haha...

Then again this is FM and Metallica.. so I won't complain that much..

Well, this weekend another BIG match... and this time I'm even more sceptical about the outcome compared to the last big match.. A draw IMO would be a good result.. fingers crossed...

Having A Laugh...

PYH shared this with me on MSN... Pictures says a thousand words...


IIUM stands for International Islamic University Malaysia...

Seriously, they expect their students peers to be scared by the sentence 'Allah is watching us'? Seriously...

I've been staring at the screen for a good 10 min contemplating whether to put up the words 'Allah/God' and 'voyeur' in the same sentence.. Hmm, guess I'd better NOT this time :P

*Edit : Sorry, apparently the campus officials had nothing to do with this instead it is the work of a student group in the campus.. pai seh pai seh*

Rockin' At 10 In The Mornin'...

Earlier this year a friend of my dad asked me what's all this hype about Facebook and what use has it other than being a waste of time displaying your details to the rest of the world? All I could say then was 1) Can be used to get reconnected with old friends, 2) getting to know about events happening around.

Now I can add another one : watching live concerts by bands who wouldn't think twice about coming here to play! Yes, few hours ago I was up at the crack of 10am to watch the Foo Fighters play LIVE via FaceBook! Those of you who don't know who they are must've your heads shoved up a place where the sun don't shine for about a decade and a half.

For those who do, well, they did a free gig and streamed it via their FaceBook fan page (see it pays to click on those fan pages). They rocked for a whole 2 and a half hours! I wonder if it would've been that long at a concert. What surprised me was I was able to stream flawlessly for about 2 hours from 10-12. Then unsurprisingly our lowly ranked internet speed gave me shit. Was stuttering and lagging for the last half hour >:(.


Who says Facebook is a waste of time?...

Sweet thing was they played most of their big hits so I was actually head banging most of the time at 10 in the morning! Pity those fellas in Europe who had to watch the gig in the wee hours of the morning though... having to put on earphones and all. Well take that bitches! Now you know how we feel having to stay up watching football matches!

This was my 2nd time watching something being streamed live over Facebook. 1st was the memorial service for MJ. Hopefully more artist will catch up to this and decide to do a free gig for the fans. Would really like to see the Red Hot Chilli Peppers do this!

Right, I suppose now is the right time to go and resume my nap time. Couldn't sleep till 6am and woke up at 10 for the show.

Oh Halloween is today though we Malaysians don't celebrate this as big as the States. It would be nice to dress up as a cop and beat up people eh? But then again, people might just say "meh, biasa lah tu, macam tak pernah tengok".

One last note, this week's South Park pwns last week's 'They Took His Job' episode with Cartman singing Poker Face! And shit it wasn't half bad!

Aftermath...

Say what you want about the match just now, but for the record, I honestly didn't think we deserved to win. I'll be the first to stand up and admit we were beaten by the better team. Right from the kick off Liverpool looked the more hungrier side. Their passes were more precise and had more intent. Hey, it's their managers' head on the line, not Fergie's so naturally they will have more incentive. And I've already said before the match that I can't see Liverpool losing 5 in a row.

Yes we were way way below par. Only shot on target was Rooney's offside goal. Scholes was shitty, I have always said, we can never play big matches with 2 senior players in the team. Oh well, looks like a half fit Torres is better than a half fit Rooney. There were several beach balls on the loose but they didn't come in the way.

Though I do wonder what might've been had the referee grew a pair of nuts and be more consistent. Booking United players, fine I'll accept, but not booking the home team for more malicious tackles is a travesty to football. No wonder the rest of the league claims the Big 4 have the ref's in their back pocket. To prove a point, Carragher was only shown a yellow card for last man tackle on Owen? To prove another point, wait til the return match at Old Trafford, and I'm sure someone will say the ref is on United's side.

Well, it is just 10 games in the season and 2 losses. Not that bad, we had worse times, not to mention losing this fixture home and away last season. All in all, good job on Liverpool's side on winning. On to the next fixture thn...

Life's A Beach...

Another week of the BPL has passed. I say another even though still got 2 matches to be played but since neither involves a Big 4 club, who cares? We manage to make life difficult for ourselves yet again but I have to say Berba is beginning to find his form and could've scored a sublime goal but for a great save from the keeper. And Giggs could've had 3-4 assists IF anyone of his balls was met properly.. thus he only gave me 2 pts in this weeks Fantasy =.='.

But there was good news as 2 of the Big 4 lost. Though I seriously think Darren Bent should NOT be given the goal. It should instead go to the beach ball! Heavy deflection, if it was a Liverpool player (eh, with the logo it might have been!) that would've been an own goal already. Haiz, guess I've to jump on the Bent-wagon again. 2 games I drop him and he comes up with +- 20 pts.

And ahead of next weeks massive clash between Liverpool and United, I have a funny feeling that there will be a large warning sign in front of Anfield saying 'No Beach Balls Allowed!'. Ah, til next week then, in terms of footballing sense, I hope everyone will be fit so that it will be a good match and no excuses can be thrown by the losing team, if there is one. But, in terms of a die hard United fan, hopefully Rooney will be back but Gerrard and Torres is still out! How bout Owen to score @ Anfield?

Ok, need to bitch about PYH cos PYH has been bitchin to me the past few days. When the bugger called me yesterday, I thought it was to see how I was going ka, ask me how I'm spending my weekend ka, wish me happy Deepavali ka (eh, we did wish each other Selamat Hari Raya k), but nooo, bitch just called to ask how to cook beef @ Seoul Garden =.='.

Well, on a lighter note, I'm happy to know that 30 Rock is finally back on the air! But I am having a bit of a troubling time watching this British comedy called The Mighty Boosh. Seriously is a trippy kind of show with funky hairdos and senseless plots. I don't think many of my friends would be able to watch this show. Shit, even I couldn't watch more than 1 epi per time. Overkill...

Before I head off to lunch, I want to put this vid from YouTube up. Sorry love if you get teary eyed over this but I just had too, sure you all know why.


Simply Awesome...

I can only imagine the level of preparation the people had to go through, and it has been happening all over the globe! Check out the one in Bucharest, Romania, equally as awesome. But as usual, we Malaysians want to dip our toes into everything and at times tend to take almost everything out of context and well, just able to make it suck however noble our intentions are.


Nice try but kinda fail...

If you actually see the video, notice 2 things: Flash Mob where will have banner saying 'Flash Mob'? (but I guess they had to else the police/ISA will catch them for illegal gathering!) and the tempo of the song is soooo S-L-O-W. Aih, true to the spirit of Malaysia, apa pun boleh.

But all in all, notice how because of 1 man, people who otherwise won't know each other are able to come together and do something for a good cause even in Malaysia. Yet, this only happened because of the saying : we never know what we have until we lose it. How true...

Lost In Translation...

Seems like anyone can accuse anyone of anything just because they can't understand what that person is writing. And when I say 'can't understand' I mean they do not understand simple English yet they can accuse and English written article of insulting Islam when in fact, after being translated and read to someone who has good understanding in Malay, says that there is nothing wrong with it.

Meaning to say just because I don't understand English, but I read your article and I think you are insulting my religion, therefore I shall accuse you of insulting my religion and call the cops on your ass.



Like MJ said, or what the creators of South Park made MJ said, 'you're just ignorant'.

And the government wants to change teaching Maths and Science in English back to Malay (wait, they change back already right?). Serious FAIL on so many education levels. I seriously pity the fools kids of tomorrow...


I pity the fool...

Well, this comes from a place where someone who has been found guilty of bribery gets elected as MP where as in China, the same offence gets death by firing squad. Ah well, in Bolehland, apa lan pun boleh lah!

Wonders Of The Human Body...

Was suppose to become ah long for my dad Saturday, collect rent from tenants that have not paid for 2 months liao! Thing is, its in freaking USJ damnit!! I sempat do this on Facebook:


Sad man... not even 1 comment or like :(...

But as you can see, there are no kind souls on Facebook, just soulless, lifeless people playing Mafia Wars :P (ok ok, myself included!). So initial plan fail, postponed to Sunday cos hey, tenants should be around on Sunday right?

However, I wasn't sure if it was the kangkung belacan or the numerous drinks of JW or a combo of both that gave me food poisoning today!

Now usually I wouldn't talk bout gross out stuff like projectile spewing here but today was something ... well, fascinating to me. Woke up at 10.10 am for throw up #1. I thought it was done , most of it came out though surprisingly neither kangkung nor rice were seen, just the Oreos I had before bed (and we all know what colour Oreos are!)


It looked like a scene from some alien show man...

Here's where the fascination begins, went back to sleep and an hour later, exactly at 11.10, throw up #2 begin! And again at 12.10! Walao, didn't know wanna throw up oso got timing wan... -.-'' And at around 1pm I was already up and on standby d. And like clockwork, 1.10 +- few mins, #4 came -.-'. Think there was nothing left in my stomach liao cos luckily time #5 didn't happen.

Was seriously thinking of going to the doctor had I been in the toilet at 2.10pm. Zhou said virus geng, can know to stop before I go see doctor -.-'. And I knew I was on the road to recovery when 3.10 and 4.10 came and went and nothing happened!

Seriously, timing so geng wan meh?? Oi, future doctors, diagnose can mou? :D

On another note, I have to admit that Yong was right when he said Kung Fu Cyborg was chun (summore coming from someone who has maybe 5% language proficiency in Canto) . As usual none of us believed him at first, but then I said what the heck, might as well download since got nothing to download for now. And whaddya know, 5 minutes into the show already I was laughing my ass off!!

I think those who understand Canto fully will have a much funnier time. Fight scenes were a bit corny and fail in the graphics department but hey, it ain't Hollywood right? Heck, the cyborg even had a move from Bleach : Getsuga Tenshou!


Bleach readers/viewers watch out for this fight scene...

Well, I think that's all for now, no EPL this weekend so no footie rants. But seriously, next week if Ben Foster plays, I think we will lose -.-'.

Love Thy Neighbour? Pt 2...

As well all know by now, our 'friendly' neighbour was hit by yet another earthquake a couple of days ago. And sure enough, we, us, yes I did say US, as good neighbours offered unconditional help. Even Air Asia gave away free tickets here for those who want to do voluntary work there. But this also goes without saying that Indonesia was already expecting help from us as they think its our obligation to love thy neighbour.


Gimme back my batik sarong you tosser...

However, this comes in the wake of the Indonesian government accusing us, yes US again, of stealing several cultural 'things' from them. From batik, to the wayang kulit, to keris to the Pendet dance and even to spices such as turmeric! They want to chop Indo on turmeric!! So putting it simply, they accuse us of stealing yet they want our help! WTF!

If any of you read today's (Sunday) The Star Focus section (middle part there), *found the article, click here*there was this interview between a Malaysian journalist and some Indo party member claiming they want to attack us Malaysians on our home soil! How? He claims that the message has already been sent to the 1.4 million Indo workers here to bomb/destroy/burn down their work place. From maids to labourers to professionals!


If in Malaysia, how would the ISA react?...

And they even have checks in Jakarta, though I don't think they have permits, to see if you are a Malaysian. If you are, they claim to just tell you to 'go home'. Why all this hostility lah? Well we did give them 2 terrorist in Noordin Mat Top and Azahari Husin which in the eyes of the world, were from Indo... And he did claim that the Indo workers here were unfairly treated and often beaten by the authorities. Hello??!! That even happens to Malaysian citizens ok!! Oh, he also claims those attacks will happen on Oct 8. So we see how la...

Well, not only Indonesians are taking shots at us, even Singaporeans are claiming they have the rights to Bak Kut Teh, Chilli Crab and Hainanese Chicken Rice!! Oi! Tiu nia ma.. I have the right to Hainanese Chicken Rice ok cos I AM Hainanese! I think I should sue them and claim the dish as our own!! HAH!


I'll cry if I can't eat this anymore...

On hindsight, we Malaysians also decided to 'play' with the neighbour's kids in the mud pond by wanting to claim the rights to nasi lemak, laksa and char kueay teow! Aih, can't we all live in peace if not for the sake of harmonious relationships between neighbours then for the sake of food?? Next thing you know they will outlaw any non Malaysian food here, non Singaporean food there, and non Indo food there..

I don't think I have any Singaporean friends to offend though I do have relatives there and Daryl is working there,though he is pretty much suffering... and the only Indo friend I can think about is Yong's Indo Maid! So I don't think I'll be attacked rite? LOL
