Me and Angel after TRANSFORMERS (best movie ever!)

We were at the KLCC park for about half an hour, me enjoying the scenery and she taking pictures (ok I was involved too =P). Given that it’s so late at night we were worried to ask anyone to take a picture for us. Consequently... I chose the fattest lady there, so if she were to run away with the phone, I could still be able to chase her fat-ass down. (haha! brilliant am I?)

Blooper

Tourist in KL

We looked like tourists i tell you! (Angel, you should have wore your jacket too... we would fool everyone =D)

Did i mention that Transformers rocks? Literally i would have goosebumps & chills up my spine everytime they transform! Definitely a must watch! (bless that Michael Bay)

TRANSFORMERS: The Premiere

___________________________________________________

Just got back from watching:
“One of The Most Anticipated Movie of the Year 2007” and also "The Best Summer Movie You Haven't Seen Yet" (by MTV)

at KLCC with the lovely Miss Angel again. (yes… again =P)

THE SHOW, ONE WORD: AMAZINGLY-AWESOME-HAVE-TO-WATCH-AGAIN-&-AGAIN-OMG! (That’s one word btw =P)

The audience was so hyped, the cinema cheered and clapped during a scene when one of the Decepticons (Barricade) transformed itself into a police car going on a hot pursuit. The show had incredible humor spread nicely throughout the entire time.

I am dead serious when I say that:
"There had not been even a second of boredom that managed to seep into my thoughts (absolutely nothing!), the whole time I was either swallowed up by excitement or humor… nothing less."

Blew away even my highest expectation! (i think im gonna cry)

Even if the storyline was mediocre (which wasn’t), the seemingly flawless and insane graphic cinematics will hurt your eyes anyway.

and obviously at the end... the cinema had a roaring ovation.

I COULD NEVER IMAGINE A SHOW THIS AMAZING! THE SHOW WAS A TOTAL NUKE BOMB. (ok...im crying happy tears now)

Megan Fox was hot too...but the autobots, way HOTTER!

Clearly the best show I've seen so far! (yes you heard it, right from the mouth of Shawn himself)

My advice, go with your highest expectations… cause what you're about to witness, will not disappoint you.

Lovey’s 18th Birthday

We all went to Lovey’s Condo about 7.40pm expecting the worst (well it is Lovey =P) and to our no-surprise, she wasn’t even there…for almost an hour! While her friends were talking among themselves beside the pool that I so wanted to strip and jump into!

Then finally, there she was…the birthday girl coming in fashionably-late (just like a clip from MTV’s My Super Sweet 16) dress in a pearl white gown, wind against her hair, making her drop-dead entrance, the crowd cheered like praises to a princess (no it didn’t happen) and I was partially pissed actually for leaving her guests all alone while she’s upstairs doing who knows what.

But since it’s her birthday we resorted to not scolding her (comparing to the usual brotherly scolding advises she gets from wk & me =D)

Keeping it short, The food: Good… (bless that lamb chop =D) and I have to admit Lovey, your Hartamasian friends are actually very easy-going people compared to our initial thoughts (it was you who gave us the wrong impression of them!)

We also had fun “lame games" which I was very attracted and involved in =) It totally reminded me of high school… So we rid ourselves of the “cool mature guy” statuses (that we really are) and join in the fun like lil small boys (who are still cool & mature =P)

So here’s some pictures… sadly we weren’t inside this one =(

I really wanted to look smart and name all of them…but im to lazy =P

Next is our lil “i0g” group:

From left: vin, vodka, lovey, wk, phil and me

Missing: sar, raymond, jason, howlit, pri

Here's our “Oh-no!-not-more-pictures-with-lovey-i-can’t-take- this-anymore” picture =P

plus vodka acting damn pimped, kawai & “ah beng” with his "peace" & collar up haha

Next: The only normal picture of us.
(vodka, put your damn collar properly please, wk is gonna get pissed =P)

Next: We trying to duplicate "Lovey’s 1001 poser poses"

Vin was with pose no. 472

Lovey was with her pose no.327 (which is similar to no.433)

Wk was with pose no. 734

I was with pose no. 989 (a post known for its difficulty to replicate, but I think I did a fairly good job)

Ok this picture made me and wk look super gay which wasn’t supposed to be… it was the camera angle that made us look as if we were touching faces.

Next: The after-party talks

We stayed till it's all over, helped her pack and carry her presents up (shows who the true friends are right Lovey? =D) where we almost had a sleep-over at her place lol (exhausted by plagues of picture taking =P)

Me in Lovey's room with umm...a shandy-type drink i think.

Lucky for us we didn't get stop by the police on the way back (there was a road-block)

I tell you, if I had to do a urine-test at that time, i would fail wonderfully... You don't know how badly i wanted to pee! I could have put out a building on fire.

Sadly i didn't get to strip and jump into the pool... but the night was good! =)

Fantastic 4: The Premiere

Went Midvalley yesterday night for “The Premiere of Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer” at 9.30pm with dear Miss Angel who so kindly accompanied me to see the show =D.

Well, ticket redemption was actually at 9.30pm then the “Cocktail Party” was to be at 10.30pm, so we had one hour to burn which went relatively quicker than I thought... seriously, how time flies by.

Before I realized it, we were both (or maybe just me) engulfed by issues/topics to talk about, you know like typically... those girl-to-girl talks, only thing is that I’m a guy with sentences like “OMG…Really? Get Out!” “Then I was like…whatever”. Ok…that didn’t really happen but u get the picture =D.

I actually felt whole and refreshed just... chatting, exchanging thoughts as if Miss Angel and I knew each other a long time (which in reality was…less than 3 months ago?) strangely... just like a close friend. To literally “just talk” about anything under the Sun/Moon was something I have never done in a long time since this increasingly busy life have robbed me of that, and it was really nice to just leave everything, lean back, relax and talk =D. The last time I remember having a similar talk was with... wk ahahaha! (way back when we were younger)

Angel, about the Zorro II thingy... It still really bothers me that it was you, but… 2 years ago! (freaky!) I’ll call it the ZII phenomenon: a very weird and mysterious paranormal incident/occurrence haha.

Ok so back to that night, the so-called “Cocktail Party” was good... after I saw those sandwiches =D. They had loads of shandies, (since Anglia was the main sponsor) and a good variety of finger food (mmm… sandwiches =D), except the missing "cocktails" which happen to be the title of the "parthay".

Our premiere tickets were huge, biggest tickets i ever gotten for any movie! Half the size of an A4 paper to be exact.

So we were in the cinema by 11pm (we had really good seats btw =D) where they had a lil speech to thank us for being there followed by games (yes...games) all happening in the cinema itself, something me and Angel first-handedly experienced and it was quite unusual yet ironically... very interesting! Too bad Little Miss Angel was being a bit of a stuck-up and didn’t wanna participate in 'em *sigh* =P. Don't point at me, at least I tried… =P. Darn, couldn’t wait to laugh at you if you had to run up and down the cinema and stack up those cans.
(I would literally die of laughter…I can only imagine...Ohohohoho!)

Oh yea! Plus the blind not so heroic-looking Malaysian version of The Silver Surfer! Hahahaha

Sigh...I regretted not taking a pic with him, and yes Angel you were right I actually really did wanna take a picture with him… and I know you do too! =D

Now the main part…the movie! hehe

Well it was ok... I would love to give spoilers, but it wouldn’t be the right thing to do wouldn’t it?

The Verdict

Shawn & Angel’s rating is a 7/10…but that was also because of the extra fun and activities we had along with the movie =D

1) Would I rate it the same if it weren’t the Premier Tickets?

Hmm…Nah! I'll rate it a 6/10 for the movie alone

2) Would I exchange it with Gold Class Tickets?

No! Gold class doesn’t offer games, good food and a lot of shandy =P

3) Was the movie the highlight of the night?

Umm well, not really haha... it was more of the overall experience (unusual, interesting, relaxing and just living in the moment and the movie =D)

Overall...had a GREAT time!

Two highly claimed narcissist, with Angel having more narcissism... face to face (not forgetting the black spot on your cheek =P), is definitely a night worthy to be recorded as Memorable Moments =D

and Angel… I cannot thank you enough for accompanying me =)

(even though... i would prefer Sarah Tan =P) haha

D-Day

Presentation Day today and man was it stressful (wait…what happened to all my freedom? Urgh I knew it was short lived).

Started to do my presentation slides the night before till around 2am, don’t you people love the adrenaline rush of last minute work? Just so much fun isn’t it? You get those tingly feelings and plus a sudden boost of motivation! =D (wonder where that's coming from?)
To make things all so much more exquisite,it’s an 8am class! What more can you ask for? =D

And before I know it, there I was inside the class, eyes half closed and praying for the best.

I was the 2^nd most nervous one in our group of 3. My mind keeps flashing back to last semester’s presentation where I barely scrape the surface of what I would call an average presentation to me. The simple fact was because I had to work with facts the last time, not as a background tools but as the main points. To me, that’s like presenting an Add Math Presentation. There’s no soul, no life in the presentation where you just state facts.

Anyway, the point is that I had a lot to cover for my past below-average performances. Even though it has nothing to do with this semester, but I kinda take pride in my presentations =)

Back to the point, before I start bragging and don’t stop.

In the end, my team did well =D. Bill our lecturer, was impress with our presentation. Luckily very little nerves were shown and we were quite smooth in the flow and speeches. Remember “future business leaders”? (told you I was serious =D)

Presentation ended, a load off my shoulders, but I was still dead-struck. Still had that empty gaze zombie look. Must be like an after-stress kinda thingy where I needed time to recuperate. Friends were talking about the presentation, but I could only faintly understand what they said (zombie mode).

One of the most pressured short semesters, period.

Came home straight away, went into hibernation.
I'm sober now =)

freedom

AHH…finally all (almost all) the hard pressure is over! For the time being I can finally relax. It’s been hell of a 3 week gruesome stressful experience juggling this short semester with only a month more to go!

Sunday met up with my group members at Starbucks, finishing our assignment sadly, that was our only real full group meeting not to mention the ONLY group meeting!

But I guess there wasn’t a lot to worry about cause we are all capable, independent future business leaders anyway (im serious!)

So here I am, suddenly bombarded by so much freedom, it starts to worry me. Staring aimlessly into my nothingness, my mind shuts down. Due to the certain fact that the past 3 weeks of torture that only an insane person would go through, has make my brain foreign to this thing called…freedom.

So it made me ponder, what is freedom? (Trivia time! =D)

One simple meaning is “the condition of being free of restraints”, where the context normally fits imprisonment or the power to act/speak.

But well, I wouldn’t say I have freedom neither do we all, cause we all know “work is never done”.

We are all just like birds but on a leach with the cage open where we can only go so far before getting restrained by it again or a bird in an opened cage just to find itself in a bigger one.

Don’t know what I’m talking? Neither do I.

Hmm...then again, maybe it does make a lil sense though.

See…that was my aim, trying to show you what 3 stressful weeks in a row can do to a person. (wk don’t say anything... I know, I know)

good night =)

urgh...

Look at these pesky estate companies…building a shopping complex (rumor has it that it’s quite huge but again maybe not) just outside, overlooking my neighborhood, divided only by a main road.

Once thought to be a peaceful neighborhood (one of the most tree-filled housing areas ever) now might very soon turn out to be just a nice big parking lot!

That particular area use to be just filled with trees, but look at the greed of man, taking it all away.

Again…it does present me with a nice photo-taking opportunity, not to mention quite scenic. Plus the added conveniences of buying stuff =P (BUT thats not the point)

Oh well, it’s not that we can do anything about it… at least I’m making “usefulness” of it even now.

I'll call this picture…My Urban Neighborhood Jungle.

feel the pressure

OK…so here is one of the bands that I totally adore: PARAMORE

This band has only been around approximately 2 years now, but I see a lot of fame coming their way (my lil prophesy =P) and yeah…so does everybody else. Well, even if they don’t get famous, I’ll still be one of their biggest fans, fosh0!

Its a girl-vocal band, so it has a different vibe to it.

General Info

Vocals - Hayley Williams (age 18) (18!? I could totally date her… seriously!)
Lead Guitar - Josh Farro (age 19)
Guitar - Taylor York (age 17)
Bass - Jeremy Davis (age 22)
Drums - Zac Farro, (age 16)

They have been labeled under the genre post-hardcore, and some say pop punk. But I personally think they are a bit both, more to punk rock though =)

Their 1^st album whacked my a** hard! (gayness aha =P)

But it truly did.
Damn was it a good album!
You could literally "feel" for some of the songs.

Their second album is about to be released, June 12 2007. Had a lil taste of it, umm…not bad. More “rock” that the 1^st album I think, but it’s yet to reach my final verdict, since it has only been one song.

Here is one of my FAV-ed songs: Paramore - Pressure

Lately I’ve been listening to it over and over and over again… dwelled in total Paramore abyss, especially on this particular song due to the reason that lately I’ve been through a lot of college pressure/assignment. So this song, being all about pressure, totally suited the cause.

Not forgetting she looks super cute in the video minus the insignificant head-banging at the beginning (I guess they were just hyped to do the vid), but overall a nice video.

Watch minute 2:05 – 2:16 (she's just so cute!)
If the time shows it backward, its minute 1:03 - 0.52 (Enjoy!)

BUT WAIT...THERE'S MORE!

Look out for my updates...

but for now, GOOD NIGHT! =)

Universcaling...

NOW, to start off my first official blog post… here is a website that I find very cool: The Universcale by Nikon

It shows how little we know of this world, and yet we live everyday as if it’s “just another day”. At least this helps us put things in measurable perspective . We human, so sophisticated in our ways are yet so small and limited in our knowledge and imagination. It’s strange to even think that we do not fully understand ourselves, let alone the universe?

Where our imagination ends, is truly where the universe and all its creation begin.

How wide will the universe expand to? Does it ever end?

How small is the smallest? Does it even have a size?

Will we ever know?

(ah...brings back old memories when i use to wonder, and i still do)

This site hopefully lets you stop for a moment and really appreciate what this world has to offer, how magnificent it was created and appreciate Life itself (not forgetting the nice music).

It’s hard to explain how it works…but you’ll get the hang of it. It helps a lot if you have a scroll mouse.

Tips: Do remember to go right till the end after proton.

So spur your limited human imagination and enjoy! =)

Testing...

Wow...would never have thought to see myself starting to write a blog. This being a totally new experience for me, I have so much to learn especially in the area of editing this page.

I would say one of the reasons for my sudden growth of interest in…”blogging” (huhu! that sounds weird just typing it) was the inspirations I got from other bloggers that I have seen throughout the years, where the stuff they post were either about their lives, what they had/wanted to shout out or just random info/news which I found rather fascinating. The slightly more insignificant reason was because my dearest good friend Miss Wei Li advised me to, for the oh-so-simple reason that we could just read each other's blog? Since her caring advises (dating back to high school days) did me kinda well not to mention the whining =P (but hell, it was still fun!) so, here i am trying out blogging, even though i wouldn't call it blogging...more like writing-but-not-so-much-of-diary-just-writing-kinda-thingy......BAH! blogging it is!

On the other hand, previous reasons for my disinterest in blogging (I’m not against it thou), was due to the pointlessness of it, but not anymore =). It was till I started actually reading stuff they post that I found how intriguing it can be just reading about people’s lives although, there is the share of boring, and REALLY pointless ones, but that’s another story. Maybe another reason was because of my laziness to type and to put in words what I really had to say.

Ooo…now I can share all my inner most interests, thoughts and…feelings? lol
