Bloodthirsty Majesty <> Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge

Finally, my keyboard is fixed. 

Last week I watched Pandorum with humans (too lazy to type out names). It wasn't bad, but the whole plot was so predictable from start till end. These days we have too many delusional characters in the showbiz. James was so scared but in the end he called the movie a fail. Oh well. I managed to get myself two black pants for the KL trip to, so coupled with my sole pair at home, that makes 3 pairs of trousers for me.

Everyday was gaming day. Wake up, game, badminton, multiplayer game, sleep, rinse and repeat. I couldn't blog or write or whatever since my keyboard was being defective. I played lots of Mana Khemia 2 (finished Ulrika's story, working on Raze's). I love that scene in Chapter 1 of Raze's story.

Et: "Did you just touch my boobs!?"
Raze: "Oh, sorry."
Lily: "You touched her boobs!? Raze if you like big boobs that much then why don't you go work for her!?"

The scene is somewhere in the middle (around 4:09?), but just watch it through, especially the scene in front with Ulrika's team, which is made of win. I cried in her playthrough when Pepperoni sacrificed himself to allow Ulrika and Raze to escape from Reicher. But yeah, he lives. He isn't Aeris. Eugene said that wasn't a cry-worthy scene. Ugh, but whatever. After I finished Ulrika's story I felt very empty inside since Raze's team isn't as awesome ... In Ulrika's team, every crew member was funny, especially the Pepperoni and Goto pairing. Chloe's creepiness (which rubbed off on me). Enna being bullied all the time.

Ulrika: "But without your machine, you're useless"
Chloe: "Incompetent"
Pepperoni: "Worthless"
Goto: "Disabled"
Enna: "Stop saying anything you want!"

While playing Raze's story I suddenly stopped and resumed playing Namco X Capcom instead. KOS - MOS ftw. Around 6 pm I always play street badminton if the weather permits, then later around 8 Mynci will come over. Our routine usually starts with Obscure: The Aftermath (we stopped playing like June last year). We finally finished the game last night. Well, it wasn't the first game that I finished co-op. Once I finished The Ocean Hunter in the Hock Lee arcade with a random Malay guy. After our daily dose of Obscure we would either be playing Melty Blood: Actress Again (I like using Nrvnqsr Chaos ... not a typo it's a name) or Soul Calibur 3. I suppose after my return from KL we would be working on finishing the first Obscure.

Anyways, today we went to SMK Padawan on a seemingly fun trip at first. However, the trip was so freaking hot! You will see another article on the trip (also by me) in next year's school magazine, but it will be much much brighter and cheerier than this post. Well, it is a school magazine. You can't expect me to reveal my true self. He ... hehehehe .... heh. 

Btw, it's my birthday today! Um ... yeah, it's so boring and nightmarish. But spare that part for later. The trip was an agonizingly long road trip, and unlike the movie College Road Trip that we watched last year in class, there is neither any 'lol' or 'roflcopter' or 'lmao' moments. I didn't bring my DS or my phone so I hoped that the scenery would save me from boredom. Too bad, it was sucky. Even after we went past civilization into the dark green nature, it was so ugly. The non-civilization part was seriously a winding road that I thought would probably never end. There were ups and downs, twists and turns. We even screamed to make it funner. But it didn't help much. Oh yeah, I forgot. While we were still in Tabuan Jaya, a frog leaped into the bus and urinated on the window. Then Ms Vivien grabbed it and flung it out instantly. Whoa. I was sitting with Jordan (Siaw), and in the non-civilization part I was like, "I wonder if our bus will ever crash down the mountains ... hmm, hmmhmm, hmhmhm."

Well, we finally reached the beautiful school and I made my move. I trampled on the grass, poured mild poison into the pond and released a cobra into the grass. We went into their library which was like really colorful and bad for my health. The few opening speeches and annoying braggy Powerpoint presentation urged me to fall asleep and I snored the whole way through. Their principal called Ms Vivien as Ms Amy and then later he said, "I've known her for a long time." If he's our principal, we're in deep doo-doo. So I took out my personal voodoo doll out of my slingbag and started playing with it. Then we walked over to their mess hall where their stage was also located. The way there was roofed a bit too low so I muttered a few curses on whoever built those mini-roofings. 

We had our ice-breakers next. There were two sessions, the first one was kinda boring, so I will skip to the part when Dawn, Nadia and Fira left the group. I took out the latest Cola Mentos and said, "Would you like some Mentos? It's a new flavor - Fermented Squid." They said, "Really?" which I responded with, "No not really."

Then there were Chik's dances which were our  pride and joy. Such vibrant dancing was not good for my poor health so I didn't bother joining in. I did my own sacrificial dance at the back. We went touring next. The students lived in dark dorms. It's perfect since you can hang yourself on the railing outside. The principal seemed seriously insistant on forcefeeding us with the idea that "we live nice comfortable lives compared to them and should papreciate what we have" which I considered repulsive since he talked without knowing anything. I live in a-not-THAT-rural place myself and I come from a dysfunctional family to boot. I call that principal Jerktown #2. Sharon's #1. Then there was this long road to hel- ... I mean the front gate. A truck passed by and it nearly turned some of our school's girls into roadkill. Tch, I seriously wanted some corpses for us to bring back.

We visitted their herb garden after that. The bridge there was infested with red ants. I was so irritated that I grabbed one of them and cut it into three parts - head, thorax, abdomen. Tasty. I recommend red ant platters with a combination of ketchup and mustard. In their herb garden, they grow poisonous plants like cassava. They also have a secret stash of apples in their hidden greenhouse (I blackmailed the principal to tell me this). They extract cyanogenic glycocides from the seeds which can be fatal. They also grow Angel's Trumpets. Our school's prefectorial board should also implement that system. Useless students should have their food mixed with self-grown poison (non-lethal) to teach them a lesson. Hm, hmhmhmhm. *ba-bump* *ba-bump* I would get orgasms just watching them writhe and convulse in pain ... *huff* *huff* My, my face is getting all red! While on the road, we suggested that we all do a jump photo ... and fall to our deaths. Everyone wisely ignored the suggestion. Luqman asked me to hold his bags for him. "For every one minute you make me hold this, one extra curse will be placed on you ..."

Then we had lunch. The food looked horrible so I switched it out with my Mystery Food XXX, along with a voodoo brownie, intestine cookie, and others. No, I actually finished my food (except the fish) unlike most of our people. Anyways we went home later. Super boring. Chik made friends with a guy named Bluetooth. Before we left, he shook my hand. "Hai, saya Wilson. Saya seorang iblis. Saudara akan dikutuk setelah memegang tangan saya :)" Then Yi Yong explained to him that it's my birthday. "I am most negative during my birthday :)" During the journey home, Jordan was already seated with Chung Han so I sat alone at a hot, steamy seat. I fell asleep and knocked my head silly on the window as the bus shakes (many times).

You can read the real report next year. It's dull and boring, but whatever. ANYWAYSSSSSSSSS ................................................................... I hate my father.

F4RkTH3r: Are you effin' home yet!?
Mom: Nearly.
F4RkTH3r: BICH3! Look at the taim!
Mom: Wilson went home at 3 something!

(The above conversation was translated directly from Hakka by aspiring master linguist Williew)

What a bitch! LGI has NEVER EVER explicitly said the word bitch, or any other swear word. At most I use bish, biche or bee. My father just goes around calling my mom a biche for everything wrong in his eyes. I don't even consider him my father, but if I don't say it, no one would understand who I'm talking about. So from now on we should call him Rubbitch. He's pure rubbish, and he's a bitch. He's also a son of a bitch. Sow ~ lee, Rubbitch, but you belong in the ditch. Trust me. So since we were in the car when Rubbitch called, I purposely said lotsa stuff in front of my gossipy driver so he would spread all across town. Among the stuff I said:

"I never considered him my father, not once. If law never existed, I'd run him over with a car, reverse, rinse and repeat till he's all creamy and sweet. Then I'd walk away all guiltless and free like I just won the Nobel Prize for World Peace."

"When he dies, I won't go visit his rag doll body for all I care. All his 'friends' would be there for him anyways. I mean, he easily spends thousands of bills on them and he won't even pay my mom for bringing my sis and I to eat at Sushi King. Wth."

Oh, btw, I did ever call Rubbitch a dog once directly, and in return he killed my poor floor fan. He smashed it aside and I picked up its few bits and pieces. The fan was more humane than Rubbitch is. It protected me. I also told him that I will report to the police once, he threw a chair at me, which hit a table and broke it. Crazy. Once Mynci was gaming with me, my mother opened the fridge door a bit too loudly and he chased her all the way into our room and kicked open a hole in the door. Wtf.

People today ask me what I want. The one and only thing on my wishlist is a normal family. Well, my family is pretty much normal already, just kick out Rubbitch. Go die or something, old fart? I don't believe in god. Or karma. Otherwise Rubbitch would have been long in the dumpster ... no need burying/cremating him. It's not like I'd ever visit his resting place anyways.

Of course ... you guys can always get me a Shibuya Nobody (that's like 1, 000, 000 Gold +) on Gaia Online or a PS3 irl. Ask Chik and Sharon what GO is. I'm lazy. I went to my 'birthday dinner' just now, which was uber tense and I just wanted to scram ASAP. He didn't have to bring me out if he doesn't want to. Rubbitch.

... I love reading Deadman Wonderland and Sket Dance.

And Then There Were Plenty ...

... Agatha Christie. 

Why am I able to wake up this early!? Durh-hur-hur, it's the deep effect that the ability to game again has on my body and soul. I don't even need anyone to wake me up anymore. This is to ensure that my gaming time is completely maximized, so ... it's really helpful. It won't work tomorrow, my body knows I don't look forward to school. *flips fringe* So, this morning I actually made some effort to blog, unlike yesterday. Hrmph.

Mr Linus's session with us was fun. But of all manga/anime series to like, why Naruto!? Though I must admit, it's the most easily recognized by any Lodgian. Disgusting. BM gave me something to mull over - I really have to write long essays starting next year, and we are expected to have tons of idiomatic stuff mastered already, along with higher levels of vocab. Ugh. Hopefully we get spoonfed with words in class like how Mr Danny did it. *achoo!* I'm kinda sick right now? My sore throat and flu came full-frontal on Friday evening just before I departed for Karen's party. I arrived third to Vincent and Derrick.The party was okay, especially the blueberry-cheese tarts. I was just not up for card games really. My last few minutes of the party was spent upstairs as I record 3A's musical voyage. After recording one song, I had to go.

Yesterday was purely gaming. Mana Khemia 2 ftw. It's a totally awesome game, with two main characters (Raze and Ulrika) to choose from. I started with Ulrika since Eugy chose Raze in his first playthrough. Wow, you really can't judge from looks! I figured Ulrika would be a very polite and studious girl, but she's lazy, brash and rude! Her pal Chloe looks like a total shut-in timid nerd, but is a totally creepy girl with obsessions of the occult. Which provides comic relief most of the time. Pepperoni is a muscular guy in a kiddy costume who's very extremely creepy, much more than Chloe. He's kinda like me? He always acts cute and has the most unsuitable voice for a big muscular guy. Pretty disgusting, but he's helpful. And extremely funny. Next is Enna (Ennarsia). He's a guy. He traded names with his sister when he was young (he's supposedly Etwart). His English voice is horrid and cringe-inducing. He's probably the only normal person in Ulrika's crew. The last person in Ulrika's team is Goto, a womanizer who uses an animal costume to attract women. Well, the costume IS cute. But just cute. He's also a narcissist. I still remember one of the dialogues concerning him.

Pepperoni: "I'm cute AND strong."
Goto: "I'm cute, pretty AND adorable."
Chloe: "... That's the same thing."

Ulrika uses ropes/strings/chains in battle, Chloe uses tomes/grimoires, Pepperoni utilizes bludgeons, Enna has mechanical oversized gloves and Goto uses balls as his weapons. The rival team consists of Raze (full name Razeluxe, Ulrika-christened nickname Jerktown), Lily (rich girl with sexual fantasies of Raze), Et (Etwart, Enna's sis), Yun (hired by Lily) and Puniyo (girl on a jelly monster). The game has totally awesome script and fun gameplay, without a doubt among the final gems of the PS2. Oh, did I mention that KH: 358/2 Days has an equally kickass script?

Axel: "Demyx works just as hard as...well, okay, no, he doesn't. But I'm sure he has some kinda job."

Axel: "There's this thing about chests. They have stuff inside?"

Demyx: "Everyone at C.O. got K.O.'d! I'll have to underachieve twice as hard now."

Xigbar: "Do you always have to stare at me like I just drowned your goldfish?"

Larxene: "Go bang your head against the glass or something."

Larxene: "If you're our big-shot Keyblade wielder, then we're in deep doo-doo."

Demyx: "I love days when Larxene is out. I can sit around playing sitar...instead of gopher!"

Roxas: "Really!?!"
Axel: "No not really, go back to sleep."

Genie: "Feeling blue? I can relate." (Genie from Aladdin, he's blue)

Roxas: "I can improvise."
Xion: "Roxas, that's a stick."

Demyx: "Checking everything is rule number one of recon 101. (And letting someone else do it is rule number two)."

Xaldin: "You don't need a heart to know how to manipulate one. Remember that, Roxas. Art is beyond our ken, Roxas. One needs a heart to feel moved."

Axel: "Girls sure can be complicated stuff."
Roxas: "How did you know what I was thinking!?"
Axel: "Because you aren't complicated."

Roxas: "Have you seen Xion around?"
Luxord: "Xion? I wasn't aware she had returned."
Roxas: "So you haven't seen her?"
Luxord: "That is generally what 'wasn't aware she had returned' means, yes."

Axel: "Sleep, sleep, then when I'm done with that, roll over and sleep some more."

Xaldin: "To hold something dear is to let it hold you."

Axel: "Well, sure! Especially if they're real and female. That's like a double dose of complicated."
Roxas: "So, what about a Nobody girl like Xion?"
Axel: "Single dose."
Roxas: "I am so lost."

Roxas: "That cat is a walking question mark."

Cheshire Cat: "You might say I do, or you might say I don't. What do you say?"
Roxas: "I say see you around."

Roxas: "What's summer vacation?"
Axel: "A dream come true. A whole month of vacation."
Roxas: "How do they hold onto their sanity? I could barely fill one day. [Silently think] I could take a week, maybe."

Larxene: "Ugh, let's go - before you kill any more of my brain cells."

Roxas: "It seems like the more I learn, the less I seem to know."

Xion: "What is it you saw?"
Roxas: "A talking candelabra."
Xion (takes a look): "You're right, it is a talking candelabra..."

There's more. Especially Luxord's lines, which all consist of gambling puns.

I'm going for a birthday party again later. Same kid from last year. The name's Dylan. He got a Wii even though his parents know he did poorly in his UPSR. Anyways, it's boring since it's held in Marrybrown again which was boring last year ... seriously. What a waste of time and gastric cavity. I'll just go for the sake of going - we aren't really close at all.

Oh, and guys, if you are really that keen to take up Pendidikan Muzik for SPM, be aware that it's a BM paper.

Oh, almost forgot. For the lols.

Going, Going, Gone!

Lalalala ~ I'm on a high dose of happiness. Last week was PMR ~ I got through it by just gaming every day of PMR. Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days and The Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road! Pure fun.The toughest paper was BM, like, I got 29/40. The rest were pretty much pushovers - I obtained nearly perfect marks for Science (Paper 1), History and Geography; perfect for Maths. I'mma real worried for my BM essays. I had a lot of fun doing English essays. Especially Section A. I was the only one who didn't write using my own real name. I was a girl in that essay. Harmony Liew. It's really one of the many uncommon names I thought up in case I have a daughter in the future. It's not my fave in my list, but it still sounds nice. Science Paper 2 really only had a few questions that were a pain in the ass - the lime juice and zinc powder + the operational definition thingy. Was I the only one who found the cross-pollination a cakewalk? I learned the stuff in tuition. But I think I didn't phrase out my answers much directly ... but anyways. I didn't get to learn Geography the night before it so I picked up my History textbooks. I made a number of codes tha thelp me to memorize, but before even an hour passed (I only managed to cover 3 chapters) I was so bored so I went back to creating my own Pokemon League in my notebook and also jotting down all the names that I like. For boys, uhn, I like Roxas, Ciel, Mint, Thunder, Lucis and Claude. For girls, my top few are Celestine, Sandersonia, Chrome, Mercedes, Ashe, Soveraine (original!), Rolaine (original), Heather and Rhyme. I had an easier time thinking up girl names than guy names.

Uhn, *cocks head* back to the exams. For Geo I was kinda lucky because like a few questions that came out were coincidentally mentioned by Eugene in the morning. Thanks, Eugy (read: yu-gi)! You can't imagine how much I got nagged over the weekends. My mom even switched off my Toy Story 2 during the second half of the movie. Wth. Anyways History was kinda tough. But the sole piece of hoarfrost on the otherwise fine steel was a stupid Form 2 question. Ugh. I'm going to watch Toy Story 3 when it comes out in cinemas next year. Woo-hoo! It finally got a sequel. Unfortunately one of its original voice actors had died (the one who did the spring-daschund toy). Maths was surprisingly easy, I have doubts about my PK but otherwise everything's fine 'cept BM. Huhn. Never mind.

So, like, we had captainsball after our KH paper. It was fun, but I sprained my fingers (which healed in a night). *gasp* Could captainsball be ... my hidden sports talent!? *ponder* *ponder* *ponder* Okay, no way. We went to Spring on our day off yesterday. I went there quite late and had to deal with a bunch of gays from 3A. Wow, especially since I'm usually the one called gay in class. Surprise, surprise. So I angrily went to buy the tickets for the anonymous gays of 3A. They were scared of being caught for being underage. Wth. 

Receptionist: "So you want to watch Sorority Row? Are you 18 and above?"
Me: "Yeah, haha, I just turned 18 recently."
Receptionist: "I'm sorry, but may I see your IC please?"
Me: *cocks head, makes puppy face* "Oh, uhn, pardon me miss, but like, my father keeps it with him at all times. I'm kinda klutzy, see, and he doesn't want me to lose my IC like how I lose my money (this does happen!)."
Receptionist: "Oh ... okay then. Are you sure all of your friends are 18 and above?"
Me: "Yup."
Receptionist: "Are you VERY sure?"
Me: "Totally miss!"
Receptionist: "Have fun then."
Me: "Much appreciated!"

Gays. Even if they DID get caught, they had nothing to lose. Then they gay'd around s'more, in the end I got tired of waiting, grabbed 4 of them and stormed into the movie. I had an extra ticket which Edbert offered to pay this morning. How nice. The movie was a nice watch. B+? My fav character was Ellie. Girls with glasses are cute with glasses and hot when their glasses are off. Hey, she was in The House Bunny! The movie had bare breasts, but nothing compared to Monster's Ball or Pathology which actually featured real sex. Crazy. The showbiz is really getting more and more 'open'. Hrm. After the flick we walked around some, looking for Jocelyn's party. They were at Sugarbun, where I grabbed a Cheese Burger. It was pretty decent. We then gallivanted over to FOS. There were some okay tees, but I didn't grab any as even the girls didn't buy anything. After that since things were a bore, Vince and I went over to Spring's Speedy outlet and then to the top floor's gaming boutique. We didn't get anything. We separated at Sushi King where I had lunch with my mom's party who were just done watching Where Got Ghost.

Next was Kenyalang. I grabbed 3 PC games which I later realized were useless since I lack the minimum requirements (a 1GB RAM especially). What a biche. Hrn. My comp also became uber laggy when I tried installing Left 4 Dead. Ugh. 

The Gaia Online bug also came back to me - well that was what I was doing during the PMR weekends. Haha. Now Chik Sheng is also a member of Gaia - woot! Not: Gaia Online is NOT an online game. It's a social networking site. Ask Chik or Sharon.

Today was actually mediocre at best. Two teachers were boring and didn't bother lightening up the mood at all. I can't believe Eugy was assigned with the Arts stream. There were really others who don't deserve to be in Science too. Poor Eugy. Both stream hardly matter to me but I went for Science since I got myself a free pass for 4C. I told Mr Ling to give me that class if I do happen to be assigned with Science stream. I used an excuse worthy of my wiles. Hmm hmm. Now I sure hope he doesn't forget ...

Been playing my PS2 today! Finally! After 6 whole months! My great reunion! I test-played all the games I bought over the course of non-gaming months (this excludes my DS which I play everyday). 3 were defective. To hell with them. The rest were fine. Most of them were what I found in the bargain bin of a store - Game Players World at Kenyalang. Rare games of 2004 and 2005. Still nice to play. I will be getting 2 consoles ~ One will be a PSP and the other would be either the 360/Wii. I gave Dawn a handful of DS ROMs, just to continue the tradition of end-of-the-year gift-giving. She found Scribblenauts awesome! Like everyone else! Okay, not everyone else. The gays were like, nonchalant about it. How boring. At least Jordan knows the cool factor of Scribblenauts. During the last two days of PMR I also played Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. I am a Riolu named Williew, my partner's a Shinx. I'm currently exploring with my newly recruited Anorith and Lileep. They died in the Waterfall Cave. Hahaha.

Pardon, but I will be playing Mana Khemia 2 and Devil Summoner 2 on my PS2. Am I the only one looking forward to the Career Talk? I love Career Talks.

There Are Lots Of Things To Do In The Dark

... says Mr Jeff!

School ... school ... ugh, don't even remind me of school. It's so ... HOT! The school is so freaking hot, anyone who even tries making steamy hot love will spontaneously combust from the friction-generated extra heat. It isn't helping when you have classmates who find this tropical hell COLD. 

I went to Mr Jeff's extra class. It was alright. Then the lights went off. Then the titular sentence came in. Then some busybodies pulled open the curtains, burning me. Vampires don't glitter in sunlight! Beware the mistruth that is Twilight! And I do bite! Lol, these sentences rhymed just right!

Like I said before, I'm playing Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. It's so addictive, I am now addicted to what the main character himself is addicted to. I wanna eat sea-salt ice cream! SEA-SALT ICE CREAM! I like the taste of sea-salt. Salty, yet pretty sweet. There's a dessert at Asian Recipe that tastes just like that. The Red Ruby. I've just found a DIY guide on YouTube on making sea-salt popsicles, and I really want to get the ingredients. The whole recipe includes sea-salt (where the hell do I find that!?) and materials like popsicle mould. Hrm. Repeat: I wanna eat sea-salt ice cream.

I am wondering if I should debut into the writing world with a horror-comedy. Would that give people the impression of a half-assed, childish kid writer? Or should I stall my idea until later? I would like comments on this! I already feel in love with the characters. There's Rayford Darrington, a businessman with OCD, and I even already came up with a line for him, "You can use my stuff, but please don't touch them." I think I will definitely love moments featuring Missia Hawthorn, the delusional heroine I chalked up. She played too many video games and she read too many fantasy books, hence her seeing the world in a Final Fantasy-esque way. She's kinda robotic too. Ah, and Isaiah just disillusioned me to something. If I want to write, I still have to raise capital. For publication costs. Wth. Never thought of that. At all. I thought publishers will just get 30% of your books' sales, but publish them for free first. Damn ... it seems like even writers won't be free of debts.

I wanna have a house with a balcony that faces west so I can eat sea-salt ice cream while watching the sun set everyday.

I hate my father, I hate Bau people. I wish they burn in hell and never reincarnate. When my father's on his deathbed, I will curse him a tonne of curses and pray that he will never arise from the clutches of his hellish tormentors. He's a tyrant, a monster, so I might as well use him as a tool - I won't be grateful for him bringing me up. It's kinda traumatic anyways, why should I cherish it? Bau people, oh, they're a bunch of sleazy no-gooders who all have mastered the art of backstabbing, gossiping and cheating. Maybe aside from my small clique, there's nothing else remarkable about the isolated Bau commoners. They're horrendous idiots, bastards - especially the men. They're all fairly stupid. And useless. And disloyal. And just have the foulest of potty mouths. Not to mention that they ALWAYS butcher my dreams of being a writer. Hey, um, hello, none of your business, move along, I don't wanna do some dull job of running a run-down sudnry store and living away the rest of my life in dingy Bau with no great dreams of the future. And stop pestering me to be a doctor or an engineer - jobs that just force me to dam up my creative juices. If I'd be sitting in an office in the distant future, at most it will be in the advertising field. Still, I won't be all that keen about it. Wasting my time mulling over the useless Bau folk is just going to shorten my lifespan with the stress and all. Geez. It's not easy when there are adults who laugh for no good reason and swear for the equally non-existent reason, calling people dogs et cetera. 

If the government actually cares, please start moving on to developing places like Bau so that the uncivilised monkeys will finally develop brains.

I do not feel anything bad about dissing them, I am officially born in Kuching, I am closer to my Indonesian relatives, and I have a fanatical love for Japan. I feel no kinship with the unreasonable, foul, insensitive townspeople whom I've seen for over many years. 

... Sea-salt ice cream!

Radioactive Clusters On The Move

I had to wake up early again and go to Kuching for Maths tuition. I slept for 3/4 of the class. I had no idea what I was doing, but I was really half asleep and awake. Thus there were many scrawly lines on my worksheets since I was holding my RexGrip. Anywho, I finished a Papers 1 and 2 in time. That was the last tuition class, *sniff* ... I doubt I will ever see that place again ... 

LGI sincerely expresses its gratitude to Madam Chai or SMK Arang Road for her speed, and efficiency in teaching Maths for 3 years. Not to mention she doesn't give off the stern, terse aura that makes people to don't even bother asking questions. And she dutifully reduces the monthly fees according to the amount of classes you attend. That was the first tuition ever that actually did that. Now! As an old Social Link folds closed, hopefully a new one blossoms soon. 

Life is kinda like this. People hop aboard and leave your bandwagon consistently. What a harsh reality. You just can't have everyone hanging around forever. Tonight will probably be my last swimming class, depending on how next year's schedule sorts out. We are all currently moving onto the next stage of life - high school. Forms 1, 2 and 3 are middle/junior high classes. Our class will be disassembled. And people like Edbert are transferring. For no good reason. Is it just because Australia is filled with Kuching transfers? Is it okay to just make decisions based on others and trends? I'd prefer to ... differ. And what about Edwin? Did he study through Forms 1 & 2 for nothing? I still keep thinking that he is somehow the black sheep. Yet, he is so nonchalant about the whole thing. Whoa.

I am CURRENTLY looking for an English-speaking college/university in Japan. If I manage to fully learn Japanese before the end of high school, yeah, I probably won't need an English-speaking one. And I can finally play Japanese games with full comprehension of things. I've been trying to coax my father into signing up for a tour group to Japan. But he insists to go to Singapore this year. It seems very unlikely that I will go, but it is of yet still tentative. I had also stupidly signed up for the SMK Padawan trip, and the Science/Maths Camps. Just because nearly everyone else are going. How foolish. I really should have went with Daryl - not signing up for a single one. Why? Firstly, if I go to another school, I'd just be observing from the sidelines. I doubt I will have any fun; this isn't the first time after all. The Science/Maths Camps ... no! I forced myself to be nerdy! I can't believe that I wasted 3 gaming days on these 3 trivial activities. And thank goodness they are only till noon ... they are, right?

I'm still annoyed with Kuching ... IIRC, they never showed The Other Boleyn Girl in local cinemas, I really wanted to watch that since I saw its trailer in Jakarta last year. And Kuching's manga stock sucks. Sucks sheet. And Kuching is no eye-candy. And one would normally think that cities that are not very developed would have plenty of natural beauty. Sadly, Kuching's fugly. Like sheet. And Kuching's as hot and steamy as sheet. I love shopping in Jakarta. Japan is my dream country. I took a quiz and apparently Amsterdam is the perfect European city for me. Hmm, I never looked into Amsterdam much. I thought I would be recommended the quaint, serene countryside of Cottswold (sp?). 

Ah, swimming, swimming. I'm finally doing the butterfly. It's not very fun. But it's great learning to do new things. Just remember one thing - when doing the butterfly, let your butt fly. Seriously.

Can't Even Obey Rules?

... ... ...

I went to the study group! Cha-chaaang! It was really guilty pleasure going there. I went there for Pokemon, then found out that there weren't any WiFi signals today. Wth. So since I arrived around 7:50 (it was scheduled to be at 8:30, but I didn't know), I whipped out a History book and finished it while listening to music from my DS. I really couldn't help but look around when I listened to The Vogues. Paranoia mambo. Scary. Chik arrived next. Then Jordan. Sharon. Joce & Elisa. Darrow. Che Yik. Fira. Adrenne. Michael came much later. Before Michael came, we already started with Form 3 History revision. I told Fira about the dream I had concerning her wedding.

Much later, Jordan started playing Phoenix Wright (he's only on his second case!) and I played Pokemon Diamond. My Murkrow can take down enemies around 9 levels above her, given that they are weak to Flying/Ghost/Dark. Now heading for 7th Gym! ... We were playing our DSes cos' they moved on to Geography revision, we felt that we didn't need any (I hate to say this, but I really only need to focus on History and PK now, if I want all the As) ... ANYWAYS, Jordan decided to play hypocrite and joined them in their revision. So I who gets bored of the sluggish, clunky interface of Pokemon easily, switched off my game and lazed away ... trying to do a PK paper that I mislooked.

Btw, Ms Wong & Mr Willie was at school. So are a few other teachers. Wonder what they were doing. Sharon and I scouted the library to see 3 teachers discussing inside. They weren't the named couple, ergo the point is moot. The weather was so sickeningly HOT, so we slinked into the staff room to cool down. The janitors were chit-chatting away in the mini-kitchen, so Sharon and I just stood at the main doorway, enjoying the humming air-conditioner ... that was after the Liew couple left. While we were there, the rest heartlessly started thumping down the stairs. I was particularly miffed at the fact that they knew where we were, yet decided to abandon us. So apparently they were going to the shophouses. Only Joce & Elisa bothered noticing us. So we charged on ahead. The heat of the sun was unbearable. I want to up and leave Malaysia. Fly to Japan. It's currently the season of love and romance there, autumn. 

So the people went to the handphone store. I followed them there, felt nauseous, and opted to join Sharon at Uni-Shop instead. I love convenience stores ... especially ones in Japan. I dwindled around in the shop on purpose to enjoy the air-con. It was so funny cos' I pretended to check out all sorts of drinks with Sharon. In the end I went with my initial choice anyways, Pulpy C. I like orange juice with pulp. I grabbed a packet of sweets, very old classics, those milk tablets. And those choco-balls we all used to eat during our hazy childhood. 

Back at school, our McDonald's delivery van was there (was it a van?). I had a Double Cheeseburger set, along with a freshly-baked Apple Pie. They wrongly packetted them into Banana Pie packets though, which caused quite the furore among the uninformed (which includes Daryl and even myself). It was a nice lunch. I think I am beginning to appreciate McDonald's food. I used to hate the cheese, now I feel it's okay. The fries today were pretty tasteless enough that I had to use ketchup. The apple pie was awesome. Finished first! 

After that Jocelyn suggested that we play a game before we kick off with KH revision. Since everyone were confused as to what game to play, I saved the day! I thought the classic game of Hide n' Seek would just be perfect. And perfect it was. It was a total blast. It's fun playing either hider or seeker (I had played both today!), but hiding is more fun! There is this corner that I hid in. I crouched there and comically used my Doraemon wallet to shield my face. Haha, just for laughs. Sadly the seekers never showed up while I was there. In the end I was forced to hide elsewhere since my ankles ached. Adventurous games like Hide n' Seek is plain awesome. I'm happy that everyone was willing to go along with such a childish game. Once I was a hider, and I was found nearly immediately, so I went around trying to seek out the rest. I went to 5A, and I checked out the storeroom. Why do they make storerooms when the students don't even use them!? I looked to my left. Nothing. I was about to leave. But I looked to my right. I screamed. It was Adrenne with her long hair. And Shau. Scary. They screamed too. So our screams attracted the seekers :P ... That was just part of the whole game. We clocked in thelast hour of our group study with a few rounds of Fire & Ice. Not as fun, but nevertheless these nostalgic games are still very fun indeed. Shame Dawn didn't join us. Or the rest of the class.

Sometimes people can turn ... jerky, suddenly. I sometimes wodner how they have the gall to pull that off. I don't know whether to like or dislike these kind of unstable people. You just can't help cherishing them when they are nice. Then they just drop off their mask and become an entirely different creature which is a total jerk. Even Michael is sick of said person. Said person is pretty sick too, what with this multiple personality disorder.

The whole day, Daryl and Jordan was at it again - teasing Jocelyn with random garbage. Sometimes I just can't help but wonder what there is to be amused of; what there is to be laughing at. I mean, wth. They just spout something illogical (usually related to Jocelyn's non-existent fatness, or what she eats) and laugh their heads off. Yeah, har har har. I am most bamboozled. By. Such. Baseless. Stupidity. Geez, and since in normal class I sit quite close to them already, I listen to their stupidity every day. Now I'm getting fed up. No one else ... maybe except for Jordan's delta formation in front, bothers to laugh. Can't they see that they are ANNOYING, CHILDISH ... and STUPIG!? Is this caused by the PIG flu!? Things are just getting STUPIGGER and STUPIGGER by the day! Seriously, I can't believe it. And to think most of the time I see them as the most mature boys in class. Wth.

After PMR, I would like to watch Couples Retreat with everyone. It looks cool. Also, if anyone's going to Singapore in the year-end hols, tell me! Because it will affect my decision of whether to go to Singapore or not.

Last year I was all into English songs. This year it seems the J-vibe caught up to me again! I finally had the chance to listen to GReeeeN's widely acclaimed "Kiseki" which means "Miracle" in English. After listening to it, I felt that it was deserving of its popularity and place in the Guiness Book of World Records. IIRC, it broke the record for number of downloads, worldwide methinks. Not gonna post the vid (pretty enchanting), local readers = anti-Japan! 'Cept a small number of people, yeah. Talking about J-Pop, Salyu's "Iris ~ Shiawase no Hako" is awesome. It means "Iris ~ Box of Happiness". It's also Prof. Layton and the Diabolical Box's ED. The music video is so touching. Even though I have no idea what the ending is like :P ... Dawn knows though, ask her. But don't tell me. The OP and ED of Hana Kimi, "Ikenai Taiyou" by Orange Range and "PEACH" by Otsuka Ai respectively are so upbeat and hip! I am currently also looking for "Eternal Pose" by Asia Engineer - anyone has it (I doubt it)? 

Hana Kimi ... is a Japanese drama serial adapted from a manga of the same name. It's so popular, it spawned a Taiwanese version (me don't likey). It's about Ashiya Mizuki, a girl in California, who, after watching a Japanese guy who came to America to train in high jumping, disguised herself as a boy and enroll in the guy's all-boys school in Japan after hearing that the guy stopped high jumping. The school is a school that doesn't take in students based on grades but based on looks. So it is also called "Hottie Paradise". It's funny, wacky, hilarious and altogether cute and charming. It's watchable for free here.

Now I am off to Chik's blog! Woosh, just finished 3 homework in a row, after coming home from a tired day of work! I speak like an old guy! Ha ha!

Blogger Blawgh

This is my first attempt at blawghing. It's just like tweeting in Twitter. Just that this one sounds less cute. Btw, I am patenting the term 'blawghing' ... or at least I am the founder :P.

I won't be blawghing here. Too bad. The blawgh is just the official term for the short sentence at the top in gray.

This morning I woke up for History tuition after a mere 3 hours of sleep. When I woke up I scrambled for the door because the room was dark and Where Got Ghost took its toll on me apparently. Last night after blogging I went up and I played Zubo for a bit. It's a musical-cum-role-playing game on the DS. Quirky and decent. Then I quickly moved on to Pokemon. Diamond. I finally discovered how to connect with players all over the world. I'm so happy that I have HomeWiFi. Did you know that WiFi stands for Wireless Fidelity? Later I will be battling Jordan's team, straight from my house here in Bau. I hope he remembers. I trained my Pokemon a lot last night, without using Rare Candies/Exp Share. I mostly focused on Vesper (my Vespiquen, originally intended to be named VesperLynd, a tribute to the Bond girl of the same name) and Cherry, my Cherrim. Here are their current movesets, ready for my future NU battles with Jordan or anyone else. NU means Never Used. I like using Pokemon that are rarely used by pros. 

Cherry Lv 29
Naive nature
Held item: Persim Berry
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Petal Dance
- Growth
- Sunny Day

Vesper Lv 29
Quirky nature
Held item: Insect Plate
- Heal Order
- Defog
- Power Gem
- X-Scissor

They were both very useful on the annoying route to Celestic Town. Cherry easily OHKOed the Ninja Boys' Geodudes and Vesper Power Gem'd those stupid Ponytas to death. During the final quarter of the route I switched in Murina, my Murkrow since the aforementioned duo were already exhausted. 

So let's get back to History tuition. Not very reassuring. I got a B for the first paper my tutor issued but I got an A that beats my mock's A for the second paper. It was very fun. My tutor also watched The Final Destination and Where Got Ghost in cinemas though she is pregnant. Whoa. And here I thought horror flicks are the worst treats expectant mothers can ever receive. We discussed the deaths in mediocre detail, laughed at some of the silliness, talked about the songs that were playing on my playlist (my teacher loved The Vogues' "Turn Around, Look At Me" which was palyed in Final Destination 3 and was really creepy) then Mynci and I were left with two sheets to do in the holidays. Before she went, we watched a spoof trailer of Final Destination 4 on YouTube. It's got to be one of the funniest parodies of a horror movie yet.

Watch, there's not one bit of a scare, but every part is worth lolling for. Then after the teacher left, we moved onto watching the very first Final Destination on YouTube. Wow, the movie feels so fresh since I last watched it during 1st grade. Part 7 of the movie was banned for 18 and below YouTubers ... what a let-downer. I believe it was during Mrs Lewton's death. Too violent? Don't think so. The first movie's deaths are all pretty lame. And stupid. First of all, Mrs Lewton is a retarded teacher who didn't even notice her mug leaking, and didn't have the common sense to back away from a smoky computer. And she was a bish. Die, bishes! So we watched Hana Kimi instead. Mynci already watched the Taiwanese version, but it's all new to me. I love reverse harems. Awesome. I mean to say, I love everything with Horikita Maki in it. 100% lol-guaranteed. Later Mynci left after the first episode, I went for a nap. I woke up, looked at my left. Then I turned my head to the right. WAGGGH! My maid was standing so near to me staring off into the distance and I was so scared. I really should have picked A Perfect Getaway over Where Got Ghost. Or even G-Force. I was so traumatized, I didn't go back to sleep and sat around singing random songs I came up with. I really wanted to get on with my homework, but ... yeah ... The whole afternoon I also used Blogthings, a lot. I also went for a walk under the rain with my umbrella. I like rainy walks. Chilly, refreshing. 

Then I sat aorund doing fruitless stuff till now. I know, I REALLY should start getting things going. Quote Mr Andy, "When the going gets tough, the tough gets going!"

WiFi Battle, here I come!

I Miss Battle Royale

Tough day, folks. Last night I slept at 1 after playing Knights in the Nightmare. And I woke up at 6 something to prepare for my private tuition at 8. History =). I have a History tutor starting last week. When my parents told me about it, I was horrified as I had been through tutoring experience before. Last time in 6th grade I had a tutor for Chinese. He's awesome, but I had restrain myself from yawning the whole time. I really didn't want to relive such a nightmare. Therefore I invited Mynci to come along to my house every Sunday morning. At RM50 a month, it's quite cheap for a tutor really.Well, contrary to my initial expectations, the tutor is fun! She has quite the sense of humor, we get our share of laughs, and I get to play music from my computer XD! I've always wanted to go to a school with a BGM, especially those video game ones (which ARE school themes) like Persona 3's Want To Be Close, Changing Seasons or Mana Khemia's Vayne and his Pleasant Friends. Revitalizing, fo sho. Sadly, schools don't realize this. Even though Lodge is a private school like Gekkoukan, no one thought about it. Like, speakers in class playing the music quite softly (like I do during History tuition). The speakers can also be used for breaking news/announcements by the higher ups like in Japanese schools. Cool. Last week during the exams I was suddenly thrust back into Persona-mania mode. Therefore, I bought a sling bag on purpose, and I jog into the foyer with the exact rhythm as the random Yosuke, Chie etc. who bump up on Souji when he is walking to school. And I hum Want To Be Close. There's that sense of true youth in it. I walk into class and shout, "Mornin'!" Wow, never done that before. Very, very refreshing. I wonder if Eugene does it too. Whenever I finish my papers I will be tap-a-tapping my fingers like Inspector Lunge and hum something. If it's cloudy, Hearbeat, Hearbreak. Sunny? Your Affection. When The Moon's Reaching Out Stars for rains. But then the rhythm of the falling rain is enough for rains, like in P4. A most carefree exam week. As of the last day of exams, I went to PBK for my replacement exam. I didn't meet Karen or Phil. So I was so down, down, down. I did meet Geraldine-dine-dine. I'm high (now, not then). After I'm done I went out with a big plan. Not exactly, but a plan. I wanted to go to The Gingerbread House, sit down, order a cup of coffee, and act all adult and cool, sipping coffee while playing Suikoden Tierkreis on my DS. Nevertheless, my plan failed, due to my mother already waiting for me. Huh. We were to go to Premier 101 to wait for my father. So off we go in her friend's car. Woosh! And it was like, ka-blam, and, like, we crashed into the main square of 101. It's the open area in front of the Yamisu tea house. I'm not calling it Zhen Gong Fu, because it's Jia Gong Fu. No, serious, it's fake. The real Zhen Gong Fu franchise in China is not that cheap. Cheapskate! It had been quite long since I went to an open-air coffee-shop. So why not? It's kinda wild and happening anyway. 101 is pretty tame during the day, so I didn't know. For people out side Malaysia ... 101 is a block of shops that is far from 109 in Shibuya, Tokyo =). Anyways I ordered mantou with cream milk. And off I went to the nearby cd store to jot down horror movies worth checking out at Wikipedia. It's one of my hobbies. I don't watch horror movies much (cos I don't do well with nightmares) but I am fascinated by them I constantly look up on horror movies in Wiki. I like reading about the deaths =). Don't worry, just a hobby. Willie ain't no psychopathy =). When I was done, my father was already at our table. Apparently he did something rude which I didn't find out until last night. I don't want to go into detail, I ALWAYS suck at explaining the cruelties of my father. The mantou there was good. Of course, my father HAD to go against it. He said it was unhealthy. Okay, whatever. Everything he recommends is good, and everything new I try is bad. Like I care. Actually I do. Hmm. 

Wow, I finally managed to digress. So after the tutor and Mynci went home, I had to go to Kuching for PBK. Ugh. I ditched my essay today, the teacher is too blur anyways. Which is kinda good actually. You can pick to write the essays which are decent and ditch those you don't like, he won't scold me. After all, I don't talk in class. No one to talk to. Pretty cold class. It wasn't like this back in grade school. Last time in tuition even when we were total strangers everyone would ease up to each other fast. Teenage life, sigh. Oh well, at least the Green Road girl sitting with me is beginning to warm up. My throat always feel stuck when I try speaking to her though. I hope everything's resolved by the end of the year. Or hopefully not. Then next year I can move on to Mr Willie's tuition with no regrets whatsoever. But if I DO manage to net myself some friends, I may stay in PBK. After all in PBK you can get 97/100 in essays. Serious. When it comes to marking essays it really all depends on the teacher marking it so don't be sad if your school teacher if you low grades. Some other teacher may just worship your essay! Let's positive thinking! Oh, talking about grades, I'm quite happy with myself this term =). My Maths shot up from 54 to 95. If only I got 59 in the first term exams, then my marks would be palindromic. Before I went off for PBK, I finished up Battle Royale's last two chapters. Sob, bye, BR! I will miss you! Currently looking for the original novel!

What did I do yesterday ~ I woke up abruptly thanks to my inconsiderate father who doesn't realize that people need more sleep. I couldn't get back to sleep, and instead of playing Knights in the Nightmare I went downstairs, switched on my PC. I spent most of the day watching Smile on Dramacrazy.net and Nobody Knows at the same time. I finally found the movie online. Don't worry, I don't entirely blame the class. That stupid teacher too. She DID know that she wasn't one of our teachers, right? Why show us a movie of hers which we know would not be finished in 2 periods? Crazy! I also actually logged into my supposedly-dead Facebook account out of boredom. 48 friend requests. Wow, crazier than that stupid crazy teacher. Sheesh, craziness these days. I'm Ken Amada on Facebook btw, not Williew or anything. That's why I had to accept 48 requests at a time =). Facebook hates Opera, so there are stuff I cannot do with my current browser, like, say, Mafia Wars, searching for apps or adding quizzes to my Page. I hope Facebook becomes more compatible with Opera soon. I may like it more. I tried playing Bubble Town. Very classic. Actually that was just a nice way of me saying, "What a Puyo Puyo/Puzzle Bobble rip-off!" But really, it does have its own ideas, like the walls bouncing off Borbs. 

On my way home from PBK, I also noticed a few houses that burned rubber, causing a tall pillar of black smoke rise up. Yeahhhhhhhhhh, maybe I was in Indonesia. *nudge* *nudge* Malaysians aren't really all that great and civilized, get real, know-nothings. There's a haze in West Malaysia now. Oh, I wonder what caused it. "Stupid haze from Indonesia"? I think not. Have you even been to Indonesia? Retard. Retard isn't a bad word, we have to learn it in Maths. Stupid dense commentators on haze who have serious retardation issues, geez.

I will try my best to keep up with consistent weekly updates. 

HeCuDePe

1. Knights in the Nightmare - This. It's also the must-use-stylus DS game I am currently playing. The learning curve is steep therefore I don't recommend it to Dawn. The story is pretty dark anyways. My current band of Knights includes Bonn, Oswald, Diora, Meryl, Reinhart, Giesche, Freiber and Hilgard.

2. Persona 3 - This.

3. Mana Khemia - This.

4. Gekkoukan - The elite private school you go to as main character of Persona 3. It's awesome.

5, 6, 7. Yosuke, Chie, Souji - Main protagonists in Persona 4, they wear glasses in battle (hence the coolness). Users of the Personas Jiraiya, Tomoe and Izanagi respectively. Souji can actually use any Persona, since he is the game's main character. Souji is his given name in the Persona 4 manga, there was never any real name given to him in the game.

8. Inspector Lunge - An eccentric, important character in the manga Monster. Read it, it's deep. I mean, c'mon, it's by Naoki Urasawa (author of 20th Century Boys), how can it not rock? Of course, 20th Century Boys is way better ..... obviously as it is even more popular than the rock song by T-Rex its name is based upon.

9. P4 - Persona 4.

10. Suikoden Tierkreis - The current non-stylus game I am playing on the DS. A spin-off of the original Suikoden series, with still 108 characters to recruit. My current party consists of Hero (named Williew), Sophia, Yod and Servillah (with Balsam as support character) all at Level 51. I'm near the end of the game , currently at the Rarohenga dungeon. I returned to HQ to rest after recruiting Zayin inside Rarohenga. I recommend this game to Dawn, it needs no experience in RPGs at all, the battles are too ridiculously easy (except when you get to Rarohenga), nice if not slow plot and you do not need to play previous Suikodens to understand this game. I mean, it's better than just revising in the weekends! For Sharon, get Suikoden and Suikoden 2 for the PlayStation. Even if you can't game now you can keep it until the year-end holidays. My favorite Suikoden game is Suikoden 2. 

11. Let's positive thinking - Catchphrase of Persona 2: Eternal Punishment's main character Maya Amano.

12. Battle Royale - Oh I love BR! BR starts as a novel by Koushun Takami on a government project where a class of students is sent to an island and they are forced to kill each other until one remains. It was later made into a manga, which bore a sequel (Battle Royale II: Blitz Royale) and also a live action film, which also bore a sequel (Battle Royale II: Requiem). Both sequels don't rock as hard as their prequels. I've watched the films, read the manga, now I'm hoping to chance upon the novel sometime soon. It's really awesome, and sadly you can't read it at OneManga. Go to this website instead. Beware, it may be deep, but there's nudity and gore. The gore is really cheap though. Ask Sharon. She saw Yutaka's head drilled through with bullets by Kiriyama. Not very scary actually. You just may at most be surprised since it's a manga. Well, tough luck, CuDePe. Manga isn't limited to stuff like Naruto. Talking about shonen battle manga, I'm addicted to Fairy Tail! It's pwntastic! And I like it that Katekyo Hitman Reborn finally realizes that it sucks as a comedy manga and is moving on to become a real battle manga.

13. Smile - A Japanese drama. You have to watch it. I mean, it's the first drama EVER which got me crying in the first five minutes of the FIRST EPISODE. And I cried two more times i nthe first episode. How good do you think it is? It is subbed and watchable for free.

14. Dramacrazy.net - A website that hosts countless asian dramas and movies (Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Taiwanese). Yes, you can watch Battle Royale and Battle Royale II: Requiem on that site. Don't worry, the films have hardly any gore.

15. Nobody Knows - The sad movie based on the affair of the four abandoned children of Sugamo. The movie is unappreciated and underrated ... here at least. I'm happy it got the awards it received. I don't like Shigeru, unlike Sharon who had finished the movie online. I think Susan finished it too. Damn, I wanna finish it myself. Awesome stuff. 

16. Puyo Puyo/Puzzle Bobble - Play Bubble Town in Facebook and you get the idea of both games. They already exist in arcades years ago. You can't find them in Hock Lee. But why play a puzzle game at an arcade anyways?

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

Let's have a major recap, starting from ... the day after I posted Tis-n-Tat. By the way there is another new post under this one - it's posted earlier today.

Definition of last week: Torture, buffed with Tarukaja, Bravery, Heat Riser, Power Charge, Makakaja, Mind Charge and all that. The Geography project kept everyone staying up late (unconfirmed for all, but confirmed for me). It was frustrating, especially when your parents are inconsiderate enough to ask you NOT to do the work and doubt you about what you are doing on the computer. Well, according to my father, back in his days they don't do these things and they freaking don't need computers to do their work -.-" ... Yes, there are people like him in this diverse world. Whenever he asks me to go to sleep, my usual line is, "Hello, the teachers don't care about your health. You can have your work done and you at a point of extreme fatigue but the teachers will remain indifferent. But when you don't finish your work, brace yourself for incrimination." But of course, thankfully people like Mr Danny are considerate enough to allow me to sleep for a certain amount of time (I slept in his test for 30 minutes). This is what I consider real sleeping, not WCSD, due to the fact that I bear the need, the want to sleep. WCSD is automated, and its nature is more akin to that of rebooting than real sleeping. James, I hope you see the reason why now. Maybe for some reason you are able to get sufficient sleep, but I surely didn't, and I ain't the only one sleeping in class that week. Aight, boys? 

On Wednesday there was an assembly. Mr Ling warned us about placing insults in your blogs. I'm safe from that warning, I guess. If there's really any form of insult in my blog, I'm sure I have apologized for them *nudge nudge*. As in foul language, I've never used anything further than 'damn' or 'dang'. I don't use dialect slangs like 'hao lien', 'kanasai' or 'sienz' because I don't think they are cool, but others think otherwise, duh. Most importantly, I don't use the f-word which Mr Lee frankly explained in his portion of the assembly. But I promised myself that should there be more anonymous warnings, I will delete the post where I insulted Mr Danny and Ms Connie. I mean, since those warnings are anonymous, I never know if they are directed towards me or not. Geez. One thing of note is that when Mr Lee went into that subject, he practically drove off Ms Voon Suan Ngo from her seat. I didn't observe the other teachers - Ms Voon was kinda close so a glance or two was fine for me. I didn't dare observe too long to avoid any eye contact with any of teachers. During that assembly I sat next to Sharon and Dawn, with Lester in front and Vincent at my back. I'm not very sure actually about who being sitting behind me, but I digress. Do correct me if it was someone else, those of you who noticed. On the teachers' side, Ms Voon was sitting with Mr Willie who sat with his left arm on the wall and right leg on left knee. Talking about that, let us sidetrack for a moment. Philemon (not really an official name) Kho Chik Sheng is a very funny guy. I just realized that despite mentioning his name a lot, I never really went into anything deeper about him. Unlike the other boys, his actions are kinda feminine, and that's not exactly a bad thing. Men don't have to be macho, strong or brave. That's gender discrimination according to Ms Lucilla by giving men a set of rules as to how they should act. I for one respect Philemon for who he is, and I think he gives himself identity. So whenever he's about to seat himself onto any seat other than when he's about to eat, he will place his right leg on his left knee, naturally in a flawless fluid motion. Well, I will mimic his movements in fast forward speed, then before my right leg reaches the left knee (in slow motion) I will retract, with the "Eh what am I doing?" expression. It still cracks up the Philjannes trio and the Wilsuron trio. Of course, the Philjannes trio will soon be reduced to the Aglemon duo *sniff* adieu, Janna-chan! Have a safe trip and remember to buy us souvenirs! Let us reunite with the 11/03 assembly. Ms Elaine was sitting along in one of the rows at the front and she gave out some of the prizes. Ms Voon took off her glasses during the f-word part. Time didn't give me any chance to observe the others. The prefects working as MCs that day were Yvonne-senpai as the senior and the junior being Magdalene-senpai. The former was a bit dreamy ... or not.

Phoenix: Is ... 
Franziska: She ... 
Judge: HIGH!? Bailiff!

Yes, she did sound like she was onto some dope. It's a bit ditzy, so I like it. 

On Friday, we were issued our holiday work. For BM, we have a 1080-questions objective paper. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Ms Wong gave us a pretty short worksheet on chapters 1 and 4 of 9th grade Science. One whole workbook for PK. By the end of the day, Jocelyn's Halibut is already Jessy's, Susan's chair got its name Kristoph and I realized that I had also named Daryl's chair earlier but forgot about it (it's Thalassa). During lunch I was with Yana-senpai in the Music Room. She left quite early (a prefect's travails ... ah, wonder if I'll get to experience it), leaving her stationery behind. So, I took the initiative to skim through her Biology reference book. Complex. Too complex. I don't even want to think about it. And I thought I will love Biology. I wonder now. Friday was also the release date of Resident Evil 5 for the PS3 and XBox 360 - I'm so jealous of those who own the said consoles. After the day's classes ended, I rushed for home, since I was leaving that night. I packed up fast. Let's go through what I brought. First off, I have this Camel sling pouch that I've been seen wearing during my outing to the Sarawak Museum weeks ago. 


In it, I have Twilight for reading purposes, my NDS Lite for gaming purposes, my Apple earphones to be plugged into the DS and a packet of Kose oil films. Books are a must-have during travels, for those short moments of nothingness usually, like when you are at an eatery waiting for your food to be served or you're at a boutique waiting for the women to be done shopping. The time you have to wait is never predictable, thus books are perfect for burning through those moments since whenever the wait is finished, you can just slip in a bookmark and be off. The NDS Lite is also for moments like that, but I don't take it out if the noise is too excessive, because even my earphones cannot block out the noise from interfering with the game's sound. I recently got a new microchip for my R4 card - it holds up to 4 gigabytes, compared to the previous 2 gb chip it's way superior. The earphones' from my iPhone kit. The oil films are what James always asks from me. And whenever he does that there's bound to be someone else following suit and asking for oil films. The Twilight book is from the school library. I am the first to borrow it! Ms Lucilla personally bought it for the library in MPH. She sure likes going to MPH. I've seen her there last year but I didn't know whether I should greet her or not. It's not that I am disrespectful or anything, but usually I don't greet teachers who've never taught me before because it feels awkward and at times even teachers who teach me ignore my greetings so why should I bother with those who don't teach me? My DS's microphone is not functioning. Ugh. The owner of Game Boy Center at Hock Lee was at wits' end trying to fix it but failed, big time. I miss the microphone - without it, I can't use Twister or Street Jam psychs in TWEWY, play mini-games in Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure, yell in the Ace Attorney series and extinguish the candle's flame in Feel The Magic: XY-XX. Concerning the DS, I used to never play games that require the usage of the stylus when I'm outdoors because I want to avoid damaging the stylus. Now I freely play such games, such as Time Hollow or Magical Starsign, because instead of my stylus, I use the nail of my right index finger.Yes, the touch screen ignores any form of normal physical touch with the hand but it is indeed as sensitive to fingernails as it is to styli. But if your nail is too sharp it may scratch the screen, so be careful. It is also recommended that you use fingernails instead of double styli when trying to solve the electric switchboard puzzle in Hotel Dusk: Room 215 because for me it didn't respond very well to two styli at once. Okay, next! (BTW, I place the sling pouch over my left shoulder, to my right) Over my right shoulder, to my left is the bag that contains my camera. I got it last week, because I complained to my father that my iPhone's camera lacks flash and thus it captures crappy pics when in dark areas. The following night I came home from school to find a shopping bag on the dining table with a tripod beside it -.- ... what about my Ps3!? My XBox 360!? That camera costs more than a freaking 2, ooo!Well, I'm not really sure what model it is, I know it's a Canon and it's an EOS. 

I will stop here. I've typed so long then Blogger just deleted everything. Thankfully I saved the first quarter of this post already beforehand, and that's what above this paragraph. I hate you, Blogger. These things ... ALWAYS happen to me. Once I was writing a review for P3 on GFAQs then I accidentally deleted it. This is the one major disadvantage with typing. If you write it out, chances of losing your work is less. If you keep your documents in a computer or a laptop though, it's practically taking a great risk. Actually I could've just postponed this post so that I can complete it but I don't want to disappoint Alfred any longer. Or anyone else. If there is any.

Love Me Tether

Whoa, this must be the first time I have no idea what to blog about. So expect severe randomness and a post with different subjects scattered about.

I will be going on a vacation in the March holidays. From Monday to Friday, so that reduces me to only 4 days at home. Worry not, I got a laptop just in time for this dilemma. It's not bad, but I am yet to have time to customize it. It can detect my phone, so maybe I'll start using it as my main blogging medium from now on. IIRC, I am going to Guangzhou, China on Singapore Airlines. This marks my first time on a Singapore Airlines plane! If there's anything confirmed, it's that I will be bringing my DS and the laptop (mainly becuase my father needs it for his job - there, that's it ... In the future, I will keep myself out of work stuff when on vacation with family members). I have been pondering about whether I should bring my PS2 along or not. I mean, 4 days is too short, seriously. Not to mention I can't stay up late on the last Sunday. There are a few games that is already confirmed that Williew will resume playing - Odin Sphere (after a sickly hiatus), Silent Hill Origins (practically too scared at the first save point to play any further when I first got it) and of course, my dear P4. Currently I am focusing more on my DS games, since the PS2 has hardly any (good) new releases anymore and the fact that the DS has plenty of games that are just what I dig. I use a R4 card, and my games are mostly RPGs and Adventures with a single Horror. Games that are put on a break are cut-and-pasted over to my computer to save space. Those I am taking a break from include Final Fantasy III & IV, Exit DS and Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker. 

Talking about DS games, I am yet again into another JP game. I mean, the US release is due June 23rd, I believe, so am I expected to wait that long when the game's so good? The game I am hinting is ... Megami Ibunroku Devil Survivor, which will of course be released as SMT: Devil Survivor.

Yeah, I know the main cast suspiciously resembles the P3 cast, especially the main trio (MCs, Yuzu & Yukari, Atsuro & Junpei). The plot involves a 7-day survival like in TWEWY, just that this one is set in the whole of Tokyo and not Shibuya. Anyway, the characters have gadgets called COMPs which resemble the DS physically. Atsuro, the whiz kid (who somehow for some weird contradictory reason has low MAG growth but focuses on STR and END) just happened to hack into a folder in the COMP which releases the first three demons the protagonists have to fight. Upon victory, they become party members. The COMP can thereby be used to receive mails from others, enter auctions to purchase new demons, view character profiles, perform demon fusion, save data and change the game settings. If my memory serves me dutifully, this should be the first SRPG SMT game. When attacking, the screen experiences a transition to a battlefield in first-person view where allies and foes dish out attacks. It's pretty cool, and I will still grab the US release when it's out. The game features multiple endings, so I guess it can last till I get the US release. 

Let's just say that the DS really has awesome games. Compared to the PSP, the DS falls behind in term of graphics and sound, but makes up with more quality games. I have thought of getting the PSP ... but heck, that may take a few more years. I really want to concentrate on my writing competitions since there is prize money to be won, but I can't really focus with all the school projects hogging me down. Can the Education Ministry please explain the use of these kerja kursus-es we are doing? Because if there's one thing I know for certain about it is that it severely takes up large chunks of our valuable time and causes unnecessary stress. I have really been thinking about ditching everything and focus on my short story, which I haven't even started and the deadline's due end of next month. The one thing pulling me back is whether or not I can actually win - if I can't win the prize money, it's really not worth it, and the story is not going to be returned. Argh, I am currently torn between my schoolwork and my own dreams. If I can request a personal special ability, I'd choose the power to manipulate time and space. I'd just freeze time and finish everything, because it just always seems that I must have SOMETHING to be finished, sheesh. Personally of course, I have not the slightest intention to be doing my projects. Then again, it's not like people care what I want. Thankfully, this year's PK project is much smoother, thanks to Mr Jeffrey who doesn't reject every single piece of my work. It actually gives me the motivation to finish quick. I am worried about the woodwork, because I heard he's quite strict on that part and I suck doing woodwork. *sigh* But no worries, no matter how strong the gale and blinding the lightning, Williew will always pull through.

Have you guys heard of the recent petitions in West Malaysia? The petitions against PPSMI - teaching Science and Mathematics in English. According to recent news, the higher-ups of those petitions think that people learn better in BM and it is our national language. I will not try to sound biased with my opinions. The main point is the blatant injustice in their claims. They practically ruled out people who learn better in English. As a student, I find English easier to understand than BM. BM isn't too bad for me, but when compared I really find English to be much easier to understand. While this may be unrelated, I prefer writing English essays, mainly because people prefers reading them and even teachers appreciate them. Whenever I write fictional BM essays, I never get high marks from teachers. They always complain that I drag things around (exactly what my mother remarks - berleter-leter). To top things off, starting next year it is fully factual for us. It is as if they are trying their best to make BM boring. Well, I am never really against factuals - I sometimes write non-fictionals myself, but every single factual BM topic is so freaking CLICHED every year and keeps getting recycled that I'm nigh bored dead. They could have made it more fun by asking us to write philosophical ones - on second thoughts, no, because BM teachers also do not like that (last year I did 'Death' as my oral speech topic in Ms Siti's class and obviously the reaction wasn't very convincing). Factual English essays are fun, you get to stuff in lots of words and quotings. Not to mention I really love musing with things. Now, back to the main topic. I think those petitioners are deliberately trying to stall us from grasping the international language (English) because probably they themselves aren't so good with it so they are jealous that we get to be more knowledgeable than they are. Just my opinions. If they have so much time to burn through, they might as well petition to ban kerja kursus instead. If we learn Science and Maths in BM, we surely can't do very well overseas. I mean, the rest of the subjects are already in BM! Why are they so selfish!? They should be thankful that we students don't go on strike asking for all the other subjects to be taught in English! Get real - we will really only need BM that much if we plan to never modernize and jsut stay the way we are in this sheltered place called Malaysia that is quite the hypocrite - makes up urbanization challenges to be achieved but at the same time tries to slow doen progress. You're such a jerk, Malaysia. What disappoints me most is that the petitions even got the support of A. Samad Said - I expected him to be quite wise. Pity, he chose to side against English.

It's, like, I have work to do, so, like, I gotta bounce. BTW, I never knew this is how bimboes talk, I am just imitating the way Ini Miney talks in PW: JFA.
