Two is Better Than One

Much had happened in the past 9 days that made my 2 months long semester break worthwhile. Of course I have to thank my friends for bringing me around. After all, I am the only one in the clique that is still not allowed to drive with parent supervision. T_T

Cameron Highland

As mentioned in the past posting, I stayed at Tanah Rata of Cameron Highland during a 2D2N trip there. Though some mishap happened to one of the company, we still did enjoy ourselves there. Did I mention of my addiction to alcohol? I had a serious case of car sickness and the only medication that was able to relieve my suffering was in fact an alcohol named Dimple. Although Dimple is no woman, but it also kept me warm during the cold night just like a vodka. And thus, I am now addicted to alcohol.

Ice Skating at Sunway Pyramid

Just a day before going to PD and a day after returning from Cameron Highland, I went ice-skating with an unlikely company that was assembled from the remnant of a failed 5C gathering at McDonald. At first, I wasn't into the idea. After all, a beginner like me sure to fall a few times as I try to figure out how to ice-skate. Indeed I fell and fell.. fell so many times. My ankles also bruised due to friction with the shoes.

In the end, I concluded that I paid RYM30 to get myself injured. RYM30 worth of experience that is.

Port Dickson (PD)

Before I could even recover from the injuries in my last outing, I have departed on a roadtrip to PD. Throughout this 3D2N trip, I had

• tasty, delicious crabs
• beach soccer
• mahjong
• go-cart
• eggs (Seremban-styled fried eggs and scrambled eggs)
• Maggi cup noodles
• fishing
• BBQ
• and more importantly, fun!

I kinda expected more from this trip, but entirely I am glad that I enjoyed the PD trip. The only regret was that I did not get to dip in the sea at all, not even once......

ComicFiesta '09

And this was taken today at the event. Practically us anime-enthusiasts had been planning this trip since the end of Daicon this July [link]. Being a volunteer at CF'08 [link], I was appointed to be the guide for this outing. In summary, CF'o9 had

• more cosplayers (moe...kawaii...totally awsm)
• more noise due to the awesome emcees
• more sponsors, particularly Wacom!! that meant promotion on drawing tablets! Now I am pondering on whether I should get one as soon as possible
• more expensive entrance fee (ouch!)

Guess our comic industry is not as shabby as I thought. By the way, I did contribute to the industry by purchasing comics for the larger comic publisher in Malaysia, Gempak Starz and got it autographed by its author, Keith!

Jumper

Finally my semester break looks like a true holiday period, where time is spent on happy/merry activities.

Firstly, I was kinda sorry for not going to Sunway theme park with the SAM clan. Hopefully I will get another opportunity to meet up with them.

Then few days ago, I decided to tag along and went up to Cameron Highland with my friends. It's in fact my first time going time. Sounds pathetic, I know. However, we did have tons of fun playing the game Twister (not Twisties the snack) that leave players in knots and ties.

It's strange. We travelled 200km and across 3 states just to play Twister? Unfortunately that's the truth. On the other hand, this is the first successful roadtrip we had since SPM. We attempted to organize roadtrips for numerous times and failed.
I didn't manage to take any photos because my camera phone ran out of battery. Strangely, there's 3G connection on Cameron and my friends was able to access to Facebook. Bet she's addicted to it.


There will be a roadtrip to PD this Tuesday. Hopefully it will be a bash.

You Found Me

With nothing to do, I also have nothing to update everyone on.

Practically things are still a standstill for me. The case on my apartment room has not been settled and I could not bring myself to break my promise with the "landlord" in order to move out. Things in Kajang are pretty much the same even with the return of those studying in Australia.

All I did to kill time was to read manga online. That is one activity that doesn't require me to fork out any money. Without a part-time job, I hardly have money to spend on entertainment.

In reality, I am impressed by those who are capable of working and studying at the same time such as Santik. I couldn't find the time to do so. Probably the field of science is more difficult compared to arts and bussiness. So do teach me how to do so.

Sleeping Child

I am bored, not because I have nothing to do, but rather because I do not have the fundings to do the thing I want to do.

And due to boredom, I dug out something cute in the internet. Meet flele the music application. With no buttons, literally.

Well, it's quite difficult to use it if you could not read Japanese, but with a little luck, the trial and error method works as well. But first you have to download the software, which could be obtained at the following webpage [link]. Good thing that it even comes witb an elaborated tutorial. Just follow the instructions. It's in English lolx.

And to obtain the cute Gundam 00 Meistoid shell/skin, just click the picture which will lead you to deviantart.com. There will be a download button on the right side of the webpage.

Thriller

2012 is totally overrated. I rather be watching the tearjerker Saving Private Ryan. Thrillers are cool too. Got some movie files from my cousin who willingly lend me his HDD. At least it had a good plot setting and better acting cast compared to 2012.

As for animations, I am going through 100+ episodes of God? Save Our King which I aim to finish as soon as possible. Honestly, the theme of homosexuality is extremely prevalent through the entire 3 seasons, though I had to comment that most scenes conveying such brotherly love look way more natural compared to many drama series and movies, particularly the reality TV series Beauty and the Geek.

Alright, I am going to treat myself for scoring A's in the last academic semester. All the hardwork paid off. Well, I though that I was about to blew up my chances with Biochemistry 1, but I guess it went well in the end.

But then, I wonder what should I get? Apparels? Movies?

Another issue comes around. My roommate is going to move to another lot for the next semester. Without someone to share the room with me, I just don't think I can afford the room rental of RM300, exclusive of utility bills.

Hope that I'll have a lucky break and find a roommate as fast as possible.

No Boundries

Don't scorn Adam Lambert. Instead, we should be pointing our fingers at the King of Pop and Elvis for being bad examples to this gay singer. After all, they started grabbing their crotches (why they even want to do that is still a mystery) and being sexy.

Sex does sell.

Still, the more I look at the image above, the more I feel repulsed. Enough about that topic.

So the idea of 4 guys going to KTV does sound gay under this is context of sexuality. But that's practically what I've done on Tuesday. At least it was fun. The randomly assembled company consisted of the Aussie Ed, the scholar Keith, driver CJS and last but not least, yours truly Alex-ander the Great.

As a result, I spent the money with was intended for the purpose of purchasing a new mobile phone. I wonder when I would be able to get a new handphone.

C'mon C'mon

The results from Pingtest.net indicated that I should have almost perfect online gaming experience. However, in reality, the results from Speedtest.net best reflect the nature of my internet connection.

I truly hated my broadband service. Perhaps I should consider switching to Wimax.
