Crawling On The Floor

No, rather like, 'sprawling'. And it's not on the floor - on the road.

That's what I did for today. Uh I mean, yesterday by now.

Had a friend who called for help - apparently a friend of his needed actors for a commercial shoot. Well, me and Co. had participated in one last week for a car club, but of course we were the 'keh leh feh' - carefrees whose job is to stand next to the cars going 'OHHH' and 'AHHH' on those pimped metal boxes on wheels.

But this time, the newest shoot was for an anti-smoking campaign. And probably because I sold my comical self too much to the society, I got picked as the *shameless* male lead for it.

So, the plot was about this couple walking down the road, and while crossing the road the male lead's cigarette box drops on the middle of the road, and he was hit by a car while attempting to retrieve it.

That means not only we have random retakes due to acting awkwardness, but I also have to roll on the road several times, and I had to sprawl for an estimated 40 minutes on the tarmac, smeared with fake blood (which is obviously something red, sour and tasty diluted in water) and suffering bites from bugs and ants which were attracted to the fake blood.

But the experience was fun and priceless. It's not like everyone gets the chance to sprawl on the tarmac for 40 minutes just to let people shoot you. :)

Anyways, off to deal with my stuff now, and sleep coming my way. Interesting day of events to dream of. :)

Note To Self

Getting heavily drunk is not quite the my ideal way for celebrating my birthday(s).

Uh, take a look at no-wing's and, well... *shrugs*

OH YEAHHHHHHH !!!

Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 2 is out !!! Finally I found the rom for it. :D

So is Jigoku Shoujo Futakomori - thanks to Ayu for the 2 episodes !!! They ROCK !!!

Now waiting for Aizome, the ED for Jigoku Shoujo Futakomori... as well as the delayed Yggdra Union...

Will You Stop Barking ?

Dedicated to someone who should be sitting in his house retired and enjoying his pension instead of trying to repolish his broken old glamour of his.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your age is over, your time has passed
your era is already the glory of the past
yet things change and no longer it's your day
so will you stop barking, I say
will you stop barking anymore ?

Won't ask you to quit, no man's a quitter
you think you're right but that no longer matters
respected you are but count out your trash
and will you stop barking, I ask
will you stop barking anymore ?

Maybe you're old, and you're getting slow
nope won't blame or flame you for that though
but shouldn't one be wiser when he gets older
when will you stop barking, I ponder
won't you stop barking anymore ?

I guess there are things, that are meant to be
some things should be done but not all of it
and sorry no one listens to you it seems
well will you stop barking, I mean
won't you stop barking anymore ?

Dropped By A While On The Platform

Probably nothing much to write about today at this twilight hour, as I thought while I opened up this dashboard. Mouth itch settling in again - had a bite of chocolate just now. Turned on a sleepy song by Tanaka Rie, "Tadaima", while rocking the rocking chair - my PC seat broke down days ago with me on it, and all I can say is that the rusty piece of metal couldn't support what meager weight that I possess. Oh well, mmmm comfortable.

Next week is the end of this break. Lots of stuff to keep up with, and who knows what will come up when I return ? Maybe more people and stuff that I'd get to know - and who knows, maybe more e-diotness ?

But well, watching 'Gokusen' did help a little on lifting myself up - inspiration and motivation on the right spot. Probably could've been killed by over-depression if not for it. And changes are coming, I see it...

Guess after spouting all these random nonsense I'll turn up early for bed today - even though I had a nap this afternoon while it rained like '猫と犬’ ('neko to inu', cats & dogs, and probably I need to slap myself up on some decent Japanese lessons).

Life's Like A Game Of Minesweeper

Well, gotta admit I was too emo on the last post - thanks to Fireburn and EwA for pointing out my 'cardio black hole'. Maybe I should lighten the mood a little in this post.

Had been slacking around again, and still not satisfied on my progress (especially on my personal projects). The newspapers for the whole week are in a heap now, yet I don't felt bothered much by the headlines - disputes between Uncle and Doctor, blah bleh blah, disputes between Uncle and Doctor again, bleh blah bleh.

Had never got a nice sleep for the past 2 days - shop lot behind undergoing renovations, and drill-drill-drill whole day long since the morning. Can't - get - sleep. Eventually I had the urge to go get some hand grenades and lobe them into that big open hole and blow out those drilling Krauts, but killing anything alive including those noise-inducing mecha Nazis on this rock in the Solar System is penalized by iron bars and free back treatment, so I'd have to pass the idea and close up the whole house like a WWII underground bunker. Hopefully they won't operate on this perfect Sunday morning, or I'll have to operate something to release gas.

Though today, went out for dinner, and, uh, I think that should be the last time I venture to that restaurant - the food is... never mind. After that, I hanged around the bridge over the LDP for a while - while munching on that KitKat Cornetto (or is it something else?) and listening to my phone's radio. Somehow it's just comfortable standing on top of the center of the highway - neverending breeze, sodium vapour lights, tremor of the vehicles rumbling below the feet, and the company of random songs from the stations. I thought of trying that again next night, but definitely I'm going to skip that restaurant.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, later on I returned to my ghetto, turned on my monitor screen, and heck, still don't know how to put what I want to write into proper words. Turned on Minesweeper, started playing. Then my mind was dulled by the clicking, and the inner voice spoke :-

"Life's like a game of Minesweeper. You click your first step, not knowing the puzzle - and you will never know what the puzzle is unless you uncover the tiles one by one. Step by step uncovered, mine by mine marked, all will be uncovered by extra care, patience and rational thinking. And if you're not careful, you make a mistake - and you have to play the whole game all over again.

"But sometimes it can be a biatch - at times you find you are betting your stakes on that two tiles that you cannot judge which is the safe tile, and which is the mine. Sometimes you get lucky - but the other half of the 'sometimes' you will curse at your ill luck."

"And come to think about it - isn't Life the same ? Uncovering tiles, avoiding mines and avoiding them, got blown by that unsuspecting biatch mine you mistook for a tile, and most importantly, learning from your mistakes. And in the end, you realize, winning is not by solving the whole puzzle, but by learning how to solve it every time you face a new puzzle."

Well, that's what the voice told me, and urged me to write it down here. Maybe I'd forget about it one day, but I might find it here again and recall this little abandoned thought of mine.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the other hand, finished the 1st season of Nickelodean's 'Avatar : The Last Airbender' (don't be fooled by the 'Nick' tag and assume it's kiddy stuff - it's good shiat we're talking about, and IMHO it beats Naruto & Bleach in terms of creativity, storyline and animation) and as well, been watching this J-Dorama, Gokusen (dated couple of years back, so sue me for not watching it until now) that I've loaned from Sig. Both brilliant and inspiring I must say - it's like a female version of GTO, except this time you see a HELL lot of boys, a HELL lot of Yakuza stuff, and not to forget a HELL lot of Japanese humour. Don't let the female lead 'Yankumi' (nickname for Yamaguchi Kumiko, played by Nakama Yukie) deceive you by her 'normal' looks (think Asian Village/Town Girl with specs and double ponytails in tracksuit) - she can be very HOT when she gets pissed. Burning, flaming, and sometimes I'd imagine that she'd kill someone with her eyes by forcing their inner muscles to sever themselves. OHWAITDAMN - I'm mixed her up with Oboro from SHINOBI Heart Under Blade again. =
Well, probably I could again start writing because I watched like, 8 episodes for the last 2 days (average 45 minutes each minus the credits and stuff). Laughed. Pitied. Touched. All sorts of feelings overwhelming at every scene resulting in either headbanging or tearluring - probably a good kickstart to motivate my inner heart. 4 more episodes to catch, and that will be the conclusion of the 1st season for me.

And well, been spamming this song, Atsumi Saori's 'Ashita Ni Nareba', from the 'Kujibiki Unbalance (TV)' OP single 'Ai'. Had to check her name again before I remembered that she was the sweet voice that sang for 'Midori no Hibi' - well, her 'Mousukoshi... Mousukoshi' still pull the strings in my heart everytime I play it on my foobar2000. Oh well, hope the torrent for that old album of hers still work.

I guess I will have to conclude here for the time being.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Felt like a million miles away from my heart, yet a million words can't catch up with what I had left running in front of me. It may never be enough, but that doesn't mean happiness is out of grasp now.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, bed then, probably. Right after I Net on a while.

The Path Retaken

Got up at around 10 today, thanks to my phone.

Cleared out some stuff. Took a shower, and by noon went out for lunch.

Probably because of Hari Raya, the mixed rice stall behind my house wasn't open. And well, I'm in no mood for noodles, so I have to walk another kilometer to the nearest mixed rice stall. Though in exchange, I get to catch up on what's new on the way, and there's always the radio on my 'new' phone to keep me entertained.

Over the neighbourhood. Crossed the metal bridge over the river. Passed by the LRT station. Nothing new apart from a new Guardian outlet, where a wall supposedly stood the last time I passed by there. Though people are still people, passing by with their numb passerby looks. Ignoring them, I continued on and crossed the pedestrian bridge over the LDP.

Stopped by the 7-11. Checked out what's in there, got a pack of Tic-Tacs. Walked out and continued on for another 10 minutes. Due to Raya, the streets were empty. Occasionally a car passed by, but that's all that stopped me abruptly from crossing the once-busy road. Soon I reached that restaurant, and had my lunch. Less than 20 minutes I walked out again.

Weird though. Nothing much on the way have changed. Maybe I was the only one who had changed for these couple of years. Or maybe it's the past that I did not managed to catch on ? I pondered as I walked my little journey home.

I don't know. Nothing's certain in this world. Either it's the world who abandoned me, or it's me who abandoned it. Probably I've been too disillusioned by the world's changing, that within myself I've became numb, insensitive and cold for this world. The price I pay to be an adult.

I stopped by at the 7-11 again. Bought some snacks and stuff. While walking on the way out, saw this girl waiting inside the 7-11 for her friends - another couple who arrived via LRT. I opened the door for her, and she darted out to meet up with her friends. I looked at them and pondered a while before I exit the mart.

They probably have a long way to go. And so, do I. Different routes, but nevertheless the same weight. Different paths, but nevertheless the same goal.

I continued on my way, returning to where I belong, retaking the path of growth.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Was thinking of this song while I typed on. The 1st OP for the anime series, Fate/Stay Night. Countless nights it had accompanied me, and once again tonight it had.

Day Of The Instant Noodles

Lesson of the day : Noodles cooked on the stove in a pot always taste better than noodles drowned in boiled water in a bowl.

Woke up close to noon today - normally would've been yelled at even if I got up at 9. Thing is, I worked myself all to 4am in the morning. And I felt all horrible all over myself, physically and mentally, so that's why today I decide not to go out for lunch. And it rained at evening and there goes my dinner plans. BLEH. Noodles will do tonight.

Tomorrow I'll go out for a change - staying at home all day does not work out at all. Get something nice to chow on, buy some snacks and stuff, and take a look around to see what's new in the neighbourhood. And that's what I've decided after I took the last bite of my noodles. Guess tonight there's no midnight oil to burn.

Wrist now turned from tingling to decay. Not like I did not treat it or something, but the plaster fell after some time. Maybe I should just leave it alone, and let it serve as a 'friendly' reminder that I should work out on balancing myself so that I won't fall terribly next time.

Browsed a couple of blogs today. Found one link, which lead to another. Something that I've always wanted to post up because to me, it's ROCK and it ROCKS.



'God Knows...' by Aya Hirano. For a better 'synch-ed' version and w/o the crowd noises, click HERE :-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aHrE7d2XgA

From episode 12 of "Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu" (The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, note the 3 'u' 's in 'Yuuutsu').

Reason why I think it's cool (POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD BEWARNED):-

Well, Suzumiya wasn't quite the popular figure in her school, but she was just a talented person who just got bored of everything around her. Founder of the 'notorious' SOS Brigade (Sekai wo Ooini moriagerutame no Suzumiya Haruhi no dan), she was so obsessed into her own interests that she'll do everything in a 'cowgirl' manner - from wearing bunny suits and passing out flyers in the school compound after school to extorting a PC from the neighbouring Computer Society. And everything that'd made Kyon (the grumbling male lead you'd see stuck among the crowds, and his real name remains unknowned...) have a certain level of dislike for her. But he and the other 3 brigade members (Nagato, Asahina and Koizumi who were actually hanging around for a purpose) had no choice but to follow her orders - since she mustn't be BORED.

But in this scene, it changed Kyon's opinion towards her for this day. Apparently she and Nagato (girl in wizard costume from the now-defunct Literature Club who was absorbed into the SOS Brigade - and she's not any ordinary human girl, since she just learned about the guitar skills like, minutes ago ?) were substitute members for the playing band performing that afternoon. And they simply ROCKED everyone out.

And kudos for Kyoto Animation for making this great series - they did a great job on the details of the graphics and the animation. Bravo.

Oh well, guess it's time for me to stop here and start hanging out elsewhere. Till then.

Period Of Idling

*coughs at the dust collected by the blog dashboard*

Oh well.

Deepavali was over. Coming up next will be the Raya festivals for the Malays.

Parents off to China for a trip, and my younger siblings went to Grannies' house approximately 20 KM away from my home.

And I, now on my second week of my semester break, will be all alone in this house. For a week. Stocked with rations and stuff to keep me alive for 7 days.

Ups will be I will have moments of silence, peace and alone to do my own stuff. At least 3 story projects, my own studies to catch up, games to play, animes to watch etc.

Downs ? Plenty as well. Already I'm sensing BOREDOM and LONELINESS. Stuff to be done daily. And I don't want to think what the other 'downs' are.

Couple of hours has passed since my parents left for the airport, and I'm already feeling the ennui spreading all over me. Heck.

I turned on the music, and my foobar2000 is repeating Maaya Sakamoto's 'Chibiko Fork'. I read a little. I wrote a little. I was less than inspired. Minimized everything.

I turned off the player and started up the GBA emulator, loading up Riviera -The Promised Land-. Less than 10 minutes later I got frustrated with the inventory system and turned it off.

I browsed around the Net again. I read a couple of blogs and commented in them, then I thought it was time to bring up this little dusty corner of mine. I wrote and wrote and wrote. Up to this point, where I'm changing the song as well. Heck, I'm not in the mood for any positive-sounding songs.

Hungry. Probably there's something for me to bite on in the stores. I decided on the song 'Cry Baby', from Kawabe Chieko - the alternate version of it (namely Shining!) appeared briefly in episode 19 of Ouran High School Host Club.

[3 minutes later...]

Seems like there's nothing much on the cupboards. Checked the fridge. Decided to open up that bar of chocolate (fruits & nuts). Contents smashed all over. Took a couple of chunks and came back to the PC.

Found a link from BBC. Apparently it was for the quiz for one of their documentary series, Japanorama. About one of their episodes, which are about Otakus.

8 questions. Answered 6 correctly. Does NOT mean I'm Otaku or whatsoever - friend showed that episode to me one night and I still remembered some stuff in it as well. Back to writing.

Wound on wrist tingling. Grazed it on badminton session this morning. Need to work out on body balance, as well as strength control. Tonnes to improve. Oh well.

[----------]

After all the doodling on this dusty corner, I felt like an empty shell.

Life sucks. Kinda.

Probably I need an impact or something. Had none since 2 semesters ago. Maybe I'll do something for a change within this week.

Hopefully it works.

WHY

... are people doing stupid things, especially when they are online ?!

... do they always post without spellchecking first ?!

... some people just don't know how to learn from their mistakes?!

... people can't be more considerate to others ?!

... can't people learn how to forgive ?!

... can't they be much more creative ?!

... is the Internet connection so lousy nowadays ?!

... is it so hazy here nowadays ?!

... am I broke ?!

... am I not sleeping now but instead typing this piece of crap post ?!

... is it like, WHY ?!

Just STFU Feg

Read some short article on the weekend feature on the Nanyang Siangpau today. Translation titled : "You, army ! Return to your barracks !", which was referring to the Thai coup d'etat.

I would say that, whoever paid that e-diotic biast with that pseudonym "Zhou Gong" (周公 AKA something like the Chinese version of the Sandman) who wrote that pointless meaningless article just to fill in the weekend feature ought to get his/her eyes cleaned. That author of that stupid article is just someone who lives in his/her own fantasy world to write out his/her silly little fantasy thoughts - and I doubt he/her has faced any hardship in major political changes at all. Typical writing lapdog that wastes article space in papers.

In case you're wondering what was written in the article :-

- The author was writing what the Thai army should do and should not do. He/she commented that everything should be solved with the 'Constitutional' way. Yeah right, what kind of 'Constitutional' way ? I'd like to smack the idea into his/her mind that it depends on which hands the Constitution lies in. And if voting works all the time, they would've another person for their Prime Minuster since like how many ages ago. And oh, if the 'Constitutional' way really works, there won't be such a thing as a loophole to enable the abuse of balances and checks and tax evasion.

- The author was merely FLAMING the Thai army in the papers. Oh yeah, the weekend feature of the papers, not in the forums section or something, and flaming it like a small little eleven-year old kid on some Internet gaming forums. And what little point he/she tried to convey in his/her article crumbles easily into contradiction in terms of common sense (or was there even a point in there from the start?).

- And last but not least, he/she said that politics is not the 'stage' for the Thai army. I'd say that whatever that's happening in their country is not his/her 'stage' to casually comment about. Oh bloody heck, it's not even up to him/her to comment about what's going on in their country. If he/she 's trying to tell what the Thai army should do, then I'll tell him/her what he/she should do - WRITE SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE (or even heck, DESTRUCTIVE) FOR OUR OWN COUNTRY IF YOU WANT TO BE THAT 'HEROIC', DAMMIT.

What a WASTE of article space - I wished it could've featured something else rather than the political 'comments' of some e-diot. Heck, I'd rather read recipes than that.

Final Tribute to the Wise One

Link.

"......"

That was what my mind spoke when I received the news yesterday.

Today when I woke up, the sky was very, very clear. It had been weeks since it the weather was that clear. Yesterday the sky was gloomy, as I gazed up wondering whether it will rain or not. It didn't rain much, but last night from my balcony I can see Genting's lights shining above KL again.

A sign. Somehow it was what I felt it is. A sign of goodness on the surface of Earth, indicating his departure to a new world.

Now it is left to all us whom inherited his wisdom, to use it to polish our ways and thoughts, and in turn, pass it down to the next generation.

Farewell, "Chief". Farewell.

I - CAN'T - SLEEP - PROPERLY - AGAIN !!!

I slept at 3 am today due to the uncomfortable condition I'm in - dry weather, mosquitos and stuff. And I thought getting bitten all over the legs is already bad enough.

Then, during 6 am (which is only around 10 minutes ago when I typed this blog), my NEW housemate (think Genghis Khan country) who moved in about 1.5 months ago DECIDES to make his EARLY MORNING COMEBACK with a BANG. Not only he and his friends talked in their usual loud voices, but there's a much, much more annoying part that literally put me out of my sleep - his Y! Messenger.

Apparently he has this 'very polite' habit of forwarding his 'good nite all' message EVERYTIME before he goes to sleep - AND I DON'T KNOW WHY AT ALL. And guess what ? Most of his peers REPLIED to his 'good nite all' message - AND I DON'T KNOW WHY EITHER. And he did NOT turn down his speakers NOR did he turn the stupid incoming message RING off - and the effect is CONTINUOUS BOMBARBMENTS OF INCOMING MESSAGE RINGINGS, WHICH ARE UTTERLY USELESS 'GOOD NITE' REPLIES TO HIM THAT FILL ALL OVER THE APARTMENT, which leads to me waking UP in a LOW-BLOOD-PRESSURE-MOOD and ending up in me RANTING AND EXPLODING IN MY BLOG AGAIN.

I can use the giant F- again. And there is NO way - and I mean, NO ABSOLUTE F- ING WAY - that I can COOL DOWN DUE TO THIS STUPID COMMOTION. I've to go out later before 8 am, DANGIT.

This will be something like the yellow card now - if he does anything that lacks of intelligence again, I will have to take action. And strangely enough, my connection here seems to improve right after he turned off his PC. Let's hope it's not because there's too much spyware in his PC.

Rant Of The Day

August 3rd 2006, 12:50 am.

Headache's bugging me, and just took some medicine for my flu which has been running for the whole day. My fatigue is killing me - to the extend that I'm even too tired to go to sleep. I don't know, but my health seemed to be declining for this week - probably the weather change was behind this.

Connection's bad recently - the lag has been like that for almost a week. Don't know what's going on with TMNut, but it seems like my home in PJ and Cyberjaya are badly affected as well. Can't even do a proper thing with such a lousy connection.

Poor health, poor connection. I just hope nothing goes much more worse than that. No wait, there are. The FUBAR people.

-----

Throw in an e-diotic international student (think hockey country) staying downstairs who seemed to think that blasting his speakers to the max for 5-10 minutes is part of his 'legal rights' - well, I haven't shown him my 'legal rights' of treating him coffee in the police station. And when I mean blasting to the max, I mean ground-trembling moments for the upper part of this condominium I'm staying in.

And well, yesterday he did it again - it isn't the 1st time he's doing that kind of thing - apparently a week ago, his neighbour went all over the place to hand out complaint forms to the other tenants to complain about his inconsiderate acts. Being sick and having my little time of peaceful music-enjoying disturbed, I turned up on his doorsteps and then only did he turned down his speakers.

He came out, and he starts to defend his own acts - he claims that he hadn't be doing that for the past 4-5 days, and he wants to 'enjoy' his music in extremely loud volume. I cut him in, saying that he is being inconsiderate and stuff, but he kept insisting on that he "understands the situation but need a break because speakers needed to be blasted once in a while".

AND WHAT KIND OF STUPID REASON WAS THAT ?!

And because of that, I couldn't tolerate anymore - I kept cutting him in while he tried to explain himself, because I knew that this guy would be too comfortable if I don't go aggresive.

And guess what? It appears that someone noticed us - the barbarian guy's brother (the one who stayed in my place w/o permission) who was staying next door to that e-diot !!! And he came out to butt in our argument !!! *ROTFL*

But anyway, he's not much of a help - the only thing he did was standing next to both of us and repeating the line 'You got a point', and I have to do all the argument by myself. Maybe after knowing how I worked like an exploding bomb when I'm in the hostile mode, he didn't even dare to butt in and talk about what he thinks. Bleh, be it me that's the bad guy this time, but bad guy's have their times to rock other people's heads.

So, in the end, that loudspeaker prick tried to get rid of me by "promising not to blast anymore but can't promise forever because need to blast speaker once in a while". Ah well, screwed-up people with their screwed-up nonsense defensive lines. I replied to him that I "can't promise forever to tolerate as well because we can't be in a good mood forever". And well anyway, later on he headed off to the gym as he claimed and which I doubted - I can clearly see that he's just finding a way to escape from me, that's all.

-----

Ahh anyways, there's no limit when it comes to ranting about people, and some people are just plain inconsiderate fools. But as how Sig put it, "without them we have no entertainment". Heheh.

And ahh, it's already 1.45 am - almost an hour gone to blogging. Maybe I think I will just check around before I go to sleep - again.

We've Got Ourselves A Clown !!!

Seriously, it's been a hell while since I blogged. Dunno why, but it occured to me that I had nothing much to blog about for the past few weeks.

Heck, the only thing worth mentioning is some slight upgrade in my PC - which actually helped me a hell lot, since we're talking a 'slight' upgrade from 256 to 768 MB of RAM. Yeah, my PC's that lousy - until now. *grins evillish*

Perhaps that's one of the few things that I had to write down here, but actually in my real life, I'm actually having fun watching silly people running their silly little shows. I don't know these people are just immature or born retarded or what (prove me wrong anyone?), but seriously, these clowns (yeah, I like to refer them as that) made me faced the dilemma of choosing between laughing my cheese off or puking my sickness off. Or both.

Take this particular clown, which me & Co. secretly nicked him as 'Big K'. Big K is an 'otaku', and when I say he's one, I mean it. Yupe, the standard typical "otaku" commonly found bathing cathode rays in front of their CRT tubes, going 'moé' over their favorites in full fetish mode. However I don't have an issue towards 'otakus' - I only have a MAJOR dislike towards Mr. Big K here. And yeah as suggested by nick, Big K is BIG in size - I doubt anything he fell on will survive the impact.

Now you'd ask why do I disliked him ? It's actually kind of none of my business, and I can easily walk away with it, but I tend to say Karma loves to hit the sweetest spots - me and him had met in several occasions, and well, he pretty much screwed himself up most of the time. Which pretty much 'entertained' me - at least I've someone as a target to snipe on.

One thing that I must admit - everytime I see him, in real life or online, it kinda turns me off. Every action, every word, everything about him, TURNS - ME - OFF. I don't know why - but some people tend to be like that. They TURN others OFF. And they ALWAYS do that. And hell, don't expect them to be the considerating type - they are very insensitive with the aftereffects of their own doings.

I know nothing about him when I first met him, but it was the second time when I started having suspicions on his personality. He inquired about someone who stalked him online - when the place he asked was merely a registration booth for the club I'm in. Me and Sig (who was also there helping at that time) looked at each other when he came up with this weird request - to us, something is so wrong about this guy. No one in the right mind will stalk this huge guy - unless the stalker's a huge-guy-fetish or, which was what we later found out to be, Big K did something to provoke the stalker.

Since then, nothing good came out from Big K. He's considered active in the IRC channel for our club, but whatever he says is PLAIN SICK. He's the only guy I knew in real life who will describe himself masturbating online. And it isn't funny at all - he's actually talking about it in front of girls.

I don't know of anything that can save him from his ignorance, stupidity or whatever you call it, but one thing is for sure - guy needs a GIANT smite on his head, preferably with something heavy and metallic.

But like it or not, me & Co. will be stuck with this screwed-up character for these couple of years. But of course, we're not going to let this clown off for anything stupid he'd cause in the future.

Hopefully when he finds this little dusty corner of mine (maybe via Google?), he's stupid enough to not know who I'm referring to. But if he does, I congratulate him - with my shoe.

One Example Of "How To Deal With Lift Smokers"

Here's how it goes.

Tonight me and friend Sig (who was um, temporarily lurking in my house for the month, hogging the connection at my house for extremely heavy downloads *ROTFL*) returned from campus after dinner.

Then, when we reached our block, we followed a couple of MYY kids were walking in front of us towards the lift. One of them was holding a box of cigarettes at one of his hands - and a lit cigarette at the other.

"Oh my, those kids are going to bring that into the lift." I commented. In Mandarin, that is.

"Yeah, definitely." Sig replied hastily.

Suddenly, I got a giant lightbulb on top of my head.

"Let's take the stairs instead." I said with a smirk.

"Okay." Apparently this isn't the first time the both of us "playing" around the staircase.

Then with full speed, I climbed up the 1st floor - with Sig following close behind - and ran pass the lift doors while Vincent continued going up the stairs.



And then, I pressed the 'Up' switch.



I ran to the other staircase there (there were 2 of them) to the 2nd floor, and then from opposite, Sig ran to my direction, and I took the opposite as well.



This time, it's Sig's turn to punch the switch.



And we continued the process up to like, 4-5 floors (we couldn't remember exactly how many though *ROTFL*). After that, we made our escape (on foot) until the 9th floor, where we stopped to catch our breath (of course we had to find a corner to hide). I managed to make it back to my room before I seriously burst into laughter. And one thing is for sure - We DEFINITELY heard the "ding" of the lift stopping for every floor.


Lesson learnt - if you piss off the people in the lift, they are going to get you back on the staircase.

爱し子よ PV

Enjoy. :)

EDIT: Found a new one...

People Favored Ayumi, But I Choose Rurutia

After spending like around 2 weeks of downloading, that torrent containing 4 of Rurutia's albums finally reached 99.9% this morning (well, due to the last file is still 98.7, but the most important ones - all the music files were completed, thank goodness).

Rurutia caught my ears with her tender voice when no-wing passed me one of her songs, 'Traumelai' to sample - so tender that it made tend to make me had the comfortable image of falling leaves in my mind. Another friend of mine even mistook her for Ayumi Hamasaki - but Rurutia didn't have the high pitch Ayumi loves to resort to (which I sometimes find it annoying). Then after listening to 'Selenite', the song she sang for the anime 'Karas' (good stuff if you ask me - impressive graphics, dark world setting and yeah, smooth fighting scenes) and also 'Chou no Mori', I decided to search out for her previous albums via BT.

Unfortunately, most of the torrents out there had either been removed or had no more seeds, and only this current one that I'm downloading is still working. Though it took quite some time to reach 99.9, but it was definitely worth the time to get it.

Talk about more sampling - among the albums in the torrent, one of the songs which turned me on was 'Itoshigoyo' (translated as 'My Lovely Child'), which came out around last year but I only get to listen to it now. The music was hauntingly beautiful - Rurutia's soft voice works well with the dreamy electric guitar behind. And later on when I checked the translation of the lyrics, I went like 'WHOA' - read below and you will see what I mean.



Itoshigoyo (爱し子よ )

itoshigoyo itsumademo konomuneni dakarete nemurinasai
itokenai anatanokotowo mounidoto nigashitariwa shinai


kanojyono kotonara wasurete shimainasai
zaratsuita nekonadekoega sonomimiwo namenai youni
nodowo shimeagete oitakara

futari dakedeii hokaniwa daremo iranai
watashidakega anatawo mitaseruwa
anatanoa shini ginnoashiwo hamemashou
oyaji ayamachiwo okasanai youni

itoshigoyo konomuneni myaku utsu amaimitsuwo suinasai
itokenai anatakara mounidoto mewo hanashitari shinai

kanojyono kotowa mou kinishinaide iiwa
moshimo mata tsumewo tatete anatawo ubaini kitara
konotede uchi koroshite ageru

aragaukotonaku sa subetewo azukete
watashidakega anatawo ikaseruwa
anatano hanewo chigiri sutete shimaimashou
moudokokae tobitatenai youni

futari dakedeii hokaniwa daremo iranai
watashidakega anatawo mitaseruwa
anatanoa shini ginnoashiwo hamemashou
oyaji ayamachiwo okasanai youni

aragaukotonaku sa subetewo azukete
watashidakega anatawo ikaseruwa
anatano hanewo chigiri sutete shimaimashou
moudokokae tobitatenai youni ¡¡



Chinese translation

小宝贝 不论什么时候都
在我的怀里睡觉吧
幼稚的你 我再也不会
让你逃跑

忘掉那个女人吧
不要听她嘶哑如同猫叫的声音
她曾使你痛苦

只要我俩在一起
有我就能满足你
给你带上银制的足枷吧
好让你不再犯同样的错误

小宝贝 在我的胸怀
吸取蜜汁吧
幼稚的你 我的眼睛
不会再离开你

不必再想那个女人的事
如果她胆敢再来
张牙舞爪要夺你
我就要亲手杀死她

不必再反抗将一切都放下吧
有我就能带给你生命
将你的翅膀切碎丢掉吧
让你再也无法飞到任何地方

只要我俩在一起有我就能满足你
给你带上银制的足枷吧
好让你不再犯同样的错误

不必再反抗将一切都放下吧
有我就能带给你生命
将你的翅膀切碎丢掉吧
让你再也无法飞到任何地方



Me and company shared the same conclusion - the lyrics were SADISTICALLY good.

Anyway, gotta spend some time to sample out the other songs. If anyone wants to sample it well, please tell me in the comments - I might leave a link or something if there are requests for it. :P
