"I like to move it move it"

if u watched the animated movie "Madagascar", you'd know what it's all about.. it was the most funniest tribe music ever made in animation history, that is in my opinion.. hilariously catchy tunes with crazy tribe dances.. watched it today at noon with clement and pretty much hung out with him for the whole day and I had both my lunch and dinner outside which leaves me even broke from today's spenditure.. sigh..

took a few pictures with clement's camera phone, a rough idea where I was during the day.. though after like 3 in the afternoon, his battery went flat and the camera refused to operate

Blogged, I have.

sweet freedom.. watched Star Wars 3 with wei khee and zhi wei on saturday nite.. it was pretty cool.. since it's going to be my first star wars film and my last.. classic beginning where it started with "In a galaxy far far away..." followed by the scrolling horizontal planed words from the bottom of the screen converging up.. classic indeed, reminded me of superman.. at the same time got me wondering whether they'd make a film about superman's original life on planet krypton.. hmm..

personally, I'm not that of a star wars fan.. but seeing the characters in star wars and the way they talk e.g. the howling breath of darth vader, master yoda with his passive linguistic talk and the induced light-saber humming sound with air, was actually very amusing as most comedy series on TV had jokes and laughter based on the concepts of those distinctive characteristics.. after the movies, like wei khee's blog had said, zhi wei's car was blocked by a huge white toyota car since he parked his car right in front of a pub.. LoL.. and boy was it awkward being inside the car of the teacher who made me relive my traumatic bean'ed years.. I don't like you mr. ang.. then later after he sent me back, in sheer blurness, I left my phone and wallet in zhi wei's car and thank God it was red on the traffic lights and I manage to caught up to them by foot.. humiliated indeed, I am..

went out with wei khee again today and hung out at the arcade for like 2 straight hours on fighting games and went for dinner afterwards at Hartz and ended up with a bloated tummy full of carbohydrates and fat.. ugh.. then we headed home early since he was in a rush.. my first day of the holiday week was well spent not to mention my money as well.. sigh I question myself how am I gonna survive the whole two weeks of holidays with just ten bucks.. sigh.. owh and thanks to nurul, if it wasn't for her, I'd have gone to school tomorrow morning waiting in front of the computer room like an idiot since the actualy computer class starts only the 2nd week of the holidays every morning..

more posts to come during the holidays.. nites.

the end...

finally the exams are over! who gives a damn about tomorrow's PA paper!?? Objective again.. I'd rather spend my night reading books I borrowed from the library rather than studying PA..

physics on tuesday was bad.. chemistry was alrite.. for chemistry, I had to force coffee down my esofagus just to stay up the whole night till 2am in the morning just to study through organic chemistry.. well, at least my effort paid off seeing the number of questions I manage to complete.. this morning's maths paper was so depressing, especially with 3 or 4 questions about probability which was the topic that I never had a single clue on and the most complicated of all.. ugh.. all this talk about exams is getting really depressing and ruining my pre-holiday spirits.. enough.

alrite this is wad I've planned out for my holiday plans.. catching up on the latest movies.. hanging out with friends everyday (that is IF I have any).. sleep till the later afternoons.. finish all my books I borrowed from the library (with effect from today).. hang out till late in the morning.. uhh.. such freedom.. such joy.. damn the school for having extra classes for chemistry for the whole first week out of the two weeks of holiday..

owh by the way, made some changes to my blog.. changed the song to Michael Buble's Home if u guy hadn't noticed by now.. nice tune.. and thanks ken for letting me host the file.. wish me luck for tomorrow's PA.. gotta go work on my "aiming" for tomorrow's target practise.. ciao

wesak day...?

Wesak? Buddha? Siddartha Gautama? who? A-mi-to-fa? wad? nvm.. I seriously dunno wad wesak day's celebrating about and I could care less since I myself is a Christian.. not that I'm a religion-ist or something since my moral Christianity values are questionable or u can say I'm partially Christian but let's not go there coz that's a whole different story..

last nite behind my aunt's place was a parade along padungan road celebrating wesak day, I had to follow since I was proudly given the task of carrying the stool and holding an umbrella thanks to the drizzling rain and my tolerating kindness.. and there they came, big polymer plastic (wadever u call it) foam covered lories and trucks with colourful decorated buddhas with water lilies and everything any typical chinese cultured person could imagine.. dragons, jades, candles.. u name it.. they walked like they owned the road.. and literally they did.. emitting carbon-monoxides as well. Understandble that it was a long walk from Padang Merdeka (direct translation - Independence Field) to Padungan and back, they were EACH given iced water contained inside a tied plastic wrapper and sucked on the tip f the plastic edge to drink on.. and each group of so called "buddists" parad'ees ranging from little children to adults were very considerate enough to LEAVE the plastic wrappers that hold their only source of H20 to prevent them from dehydrating, on the road for their respectful Gods to clean up after them while on their other hand holding symbolic plastic candle-lit water lilies.. so much for buddhism morality I say.. later that night, I noticed DBKU workers cynically smiling as they proceed with their O.T. (Overtime) work schedule for that extra-pay.. but nevertheless still, for the sake of good and optimism and for all that's worth, the eye candy was nice..

Well.. about today, which is a holiday and tomorrow which is my Physics Paper.. I only studied mostly on Electronics.. not even a quarter of the volume 2 book! sheesh I have some issues man.. I always, ALWAYS do things at the last minute.. especially on EXAMS! gosh.. I need to study!! by now I may be sounding like a person who got his life not organized and screwed at the same time.. and I admit it.. Guys.. anyone who is reading this post, any useful tips? PLEASE?

Advice In Need..

last nite after finishing the previous post.. I updated the computer with the latest windows update and restarted it.. to my annoying surprise, I couldn't log on my account and neither can the other account.. this morning when I woke up, I called ken and he guided me through the phone and I was so frustrated I almost wanna smash the monitor with the keyboard!! weird enough, my explorer.exe file was somehow "corrupted" affecting other applications to a halt upon loading.. and funny enough I could play my mp3s through task manager..

my initial schedule for desmond's saturday plan was to study.. then during the afternoon, go to library to return the books and get back my chemistry text book to study and head for home to indulge in physics.. frankly, I had to send the computer to ken's place to fix Windows which delayed my schedule till 4pm in the afternoon and I had to head home since my aunt needed the car.. but thankfully I managed to finish wad I planned only to realise wad I expected my day for my physics was a mere effortless act of procrastination.. AGAIN.. sigh..

the most bizzare incidents or should I say accidents happened just now.. talking about coincidence.. I was heading down to 3rd mile to pass my cousin her photos when I was stuck in a traffic jam.. wad else? accidents lah! then.. making a turn to a corner at the right, another minor accident happened and there was a tow truck.. then turning left into a junction from the main road another accident where a vehicle collided with another vehicle in the front while turning into the junction to the left as I did.. 3 accidents in just one night.. bizzare indeed..

now I'm just hoping to finish my physics Volume 1 and 2 in time through thorough understanding at least..

just had my maths paper this morning.. compared to the last exam, my maths paper this time has a better chance of redeeming myself for a pass.. hopefully blue figures.. but hey, maybe it's wad I think, the matrix question, a give-away questions of 8 marks and I ended up with three answers where two was right and one was wrong! aRgh!! I'm on my knees hoping it'll just cost me 1 mark for the wrong answer and have my workings for the majority of the marks..

tomorrow is saturday, which is a holiday including sunday and monday (God knows why monday). Three days of sheer book-worming and finally tuesday, the dreaded physics paper and chemistry paper on wednesday.. I had my schedule planned out tomorrow for a complete full-day study for physics since chemistry tuition and computer class are off.. just as I need a break on saturday weekends, it has to happen during exams.. my luck never cease to amaze me in dismay.. wish me luck guys..

the relevance of this post and the previous one is totally unrelated regardless of the time I posted this post.. don't get me wrong I still want to study.. and I need it..

last sunday afternoon, went out with Wei Khee to watch xXx 2 and the movie was action packed.. the effects were awesome and all but still it looked like a typical action movie.. good against evil.. and obviously the good guys normally win.. nevertheless, the humour elements in the movie is quite amusing where Darius Stone (xXx) gave this unexpected comment that turned the whole cinema upside down hilarious.. then on thursday evening, went out for another movie with Kennedy and Yew Jing who came back from KL during the hols.. watched One Missed Call 2 and it was totally confusing.. I had almost forgotten the story line in One Missed Call 1.. I think having a clear story line on the two shows again should set a few things clear on the movie.. One thing remained the same though, the cynical horrific ringtone.. here's a preview on it, click "here" and "here".. feel free to download it on ur phone as a ringtone.. for sure it's gonna scare the balls out of any "One Missed Call" fan.. Don't get surprised if u happen to come across another versions of this ringtone, there're a lot of variations..

I guess my movie days are over now.. the exams are around the corner and I have to give in all my effort to get blue figures at least..

"you're the new triple X (xXx)."
"what's that? sounds like a porn star..."

listening to a few mp3 songs in my computer and recent ones I downloaded last nite.. Michael Buble's Home, Utada Hikaru's First Love and Marion Raven's End Of Me.. I love my mp3s.. mostly from the 90's and now.. somehow, the latest variety of music, a gross mixture of Rap with Hip Hop or RNB or wadever u call it is just sad.. there's practically no meaning to the lyrics only encourages sex, getting drunk or expressing orgasmic emancipations.. though, there ARE still come catchy tunes which favours my ears like Ciara feat. Missy Elliot's 1,2 step and U2's Vertigo, aritsts like 3 doors down or Howie Day just to name a few.. owh and I love rock music as well, the yellowcard, linkin park, avril lavigne kinda rock..

alrite.. I noticed lately that I've been building some interests and hobbies, maybe signs of maturity or something u experience when u grow older.. I started reading and buying newspapers for myself.. visiting libraries myself, became a member and borrowed books.. thanks to a specific book I borrowed "Double your Brain Power" which teaches us to use our brain to it's potential limit.. read, listen, and memorize better, after finishing the chapter on "Reading" I've significantly increased my reading speed, no shit and started reading faster after that chapter and finished the book in three days.. I know I know, three days is a long time for some people.. but hey, at least I improved a little and built an interest in reading.. I've also been actively involved in planting stuff.. I guess it's the thrill of seeing ur plants blooming and growing and the anticipation.. the pots and plastic casings filled with earth behind my aunt's place, I "re-organized" the whole place and now I have a papaya tree growing and Aloe Vera sprouting in another side.. and when it rains, I'm happy.. also, I've been very independent in life.. I finally found out how to use the washing machine! washing T-shirts and clothes I recently bought myself for a few occasions with my allowance, only to end up with a burnt hole in my wallet to last me for the whole month.. I love to go on strolls during the night or just walking alone along the shops behind during evenings, just to get my mind cleared and away from people around me.. although it would be really nice to have a special someone who cared and love you for who you are.. or a friend who likes you for who you are..

just finished PA paper 2 last saturday morning at school.. and the next subject, Math is 6 days after.. thanks to our schedule.. maybe it's the principal's way of telling us "Be reminded that your exam is less thank one more week!".. Trying to finish my math exercises so that my exam marks on homework won't get forfeited..

No more procrastination and no more delays.. I have got to study and not get distracted but at the same time balancing my schedule foutr leisure.. over the past few years I've been doing last minute studying only to end up with red figures in my report card monopolizing 80% of the page.. "this is my last one shot for STPM and my fure", I keep telling myself that.. but I just can't seem to have the attitude or the brain for this.. Sigh..

it's happy mother's day alrite.. every year it's always during this period where my depressive personality sets in.. my birthday and mother's day u know it.. it's been 3 years plus since my mom passed on and it's been pretty hard thinking back.. however thanks to my friends this year although how insulting and annoying they are, not all of them, just SOME of them.. this year isn't as bad like the past years.. got a present from clarissa during my extra class last saturday morning.. it's been a while since I last saw her, my childhood close friend.. we met in the school parking compound and first thing she said "give me a hug!".. first time I hugged a gurl man! and she passed me my birthday present.. hehe

I managed to keep this "Happy Birthday tag" a sentimental thing in my life.. here's the pictures of my birthday cake that nite as well.. thanks to benjamin and his nokia 7610 not forgetting Photoshop..

after a few bites..

last nite after my chemistry tuition, got a phone call from a classmate asking whether I'd wanna go for a movie with his friend.. so we had dinner and watched "Kingdom of Heaven".. a very cool epic and the effects are superb.. the attack of the muslims on the walls of Jerussalem is astounding.. that is if u dun take into account the boring story line before Baron of Ibelin, son of Godffrey is made.. however there's too many blood splattering scenes, during fights scenes u could actually see blood gushing out from the victim's body where every possible blood vessels can be located.. gruesome..

gotta get goin now.. later there's going d be a family dinner for mother's day.. wanna get ready and off the phone in case people call.. will post soon.. going out for another movie with a friend later

well just after I posted the last post durin my birthday.. my friends wanted to meet up with me at 3rd mile.. so I followed ben's car after sending jeff home to 3rd mile to meet up.. coincidentally while lookin, I saw them.. kim, fen and ken leaving taiwan cake house holding a cake.. I figured, it was for me.. touched and weirdly awkward coz I have never, I repeat NEVER had a birthday cake in my life in celebration to my birthday and that's pretty much how sad my life is.. I mean was till then..

so, we walked along the stores and sat down in front of a coffee shop right under the TV showing men making fools out of themselves wrestling in a ring with their underwears only.. ken lit the candles and for that instant the crowd's attention was obviously on me during that time since it was dark and I made my wish, blew the candles and cut the cake trying to get over with the candles and being inconspicuous as possible.. in that moment of nought, we used the cardboard as plates and hand-feed ourselves and I went to the cybercafe looking for ben to borrow his phone to take pictures of the cake, actually wanted to post a picture of the cake here but he hasn't sent it yet.. hopefully it's still in his phone.. Thanks guys for that night.. it really meant a lot to me..

alrite.. now the real thing I'm worrying about.. my studies! I've been struggling badly to concentrate on studying man.. damn, the moment I open a book.. next thing I know my eyes are getting heavier and tired like illusive hypnotic effect or some sort.. I think I'm going to the library in a regular basis starting from next week coz I concentrate better in the library.. :P next wednesday's MUET speaking test.. let's hope my toungue get's enough "exercise".. dun blame me for talking too much over the past few days alrite guys.

was checking my mail alert and found this anti-google site.. click here.

the foreseen birth of insignificance has finally come..

guess wad.. it's my birthday today.. just finished tuition just now and hanging out with friends while I'm posting this blog and them gaming on warcraft.. the same thing that happens every year.. the birthday. As usual, presents are nil which is a annual occurance and something I could care less each year.. greeted this morning starting off with a contagious chain of reaction from a classmate.. at least I realised the friends that I have and that's the thing that matters most.. thanks guys for the wishes and smses and emails.. it really means a lot to me.

having dinner later with my friends and going home hopefully still in the mood to study since the exams are creeping up my nerves.. ;)

tired and worn out.. hardly feel like typing anything but wad the heck.. I'll give it a shot anyways..

last satuday's MUET exam was a total disaster.. I wrote weak points (or maybe non at all) for essay writing, then I missed out a point in table manners for summary.. the only thought that keeps going through my mind is another chance to redeem myself for another MUET exam during October if I'm not mistaken..

got back from a dinner function at crown square just now.. huge social event I guess, students and friends from st joe, st.mary, st.theresa and all were there.. and it was alrite I guess.. the shirt I bought last nite looked like I was a hard labour worker.. light blue shirt with jeans and shoes, the masculine-construction-ish look made me look like a construction worker who just finished work from a site in hast to attend a dinner.. so I decided to go with black instead.. the dinner showcased some live performance with breaking and self-defence, pattern and so on, when things started to get restless and boring, I went down for a walk with my friend and bought some bodyglove t-shirts instead then soon realised the reality of humiliation to re-enter the dining hall with a yellow plastic bag and a hand-print on it.. other than the self-defense presentation, nothing was any entertaining and the food sucked as well.. also realising that my luck has absolutely ran out since I've NEVER receive a winning lucky draw for my number since I forgot.. too bad.. at least I got myself two shirts as my birthday present to myself..

dun feel like attending tomorrow's chemistry class since it's only for an hour and a half... planning to catch up with my maths exercise instead..
