Happy NewB Year =D

Hello people, a new year is upon us, but yet everything feels the same. For me I think that new year, new beginning kind of crap does not exist. It's just another day anyways. I might be a pessimist but who cares. Anyways, Happy New Year to all.

I know I have been neglecting my blog for an entire week already but it is really because the last week of the semester is really a busy one. Most of the time I was spending the time with my girlfriend, or just did not have the mood to write anything. Mainly because I was sick for about half the week. It started with a sore throat, then a fever, then flu and cough, and even until today, I have yet to recover.

Talking about spending time with my girlfriend, just yesterday I went to Pavilion again. The jam was really bad, and we finally reached there at about 2.30 pm. We did a little bit of shopping for about 3-4 hours and balik after that.

At about 11 pm, as a last minute decision, we decided to go countdown the last hour of the year 2007, so we went to the Lookout Point. There was a lot of people when we reached there and I was fortunate enough to find a parking spot about half an hour before the fireworks began. From then on we just waited for the right time. Me and my girlfriend tried to take some pictures of the fireworks when it begun, but did not have any luck with it. Probably the best picture is this one on the left. Ironically, as though it was all planned out, just minutes after the clock struck midnight, it began to rain. I got drenched real bad, as we did not bring an umbrella along with us. We managed to find shelter from the rain, and just waited. I only reached home at about 2.00 am in the morning, and I was exhausted from all that traveling around all day long.

Yeah, not to be missed, today is the last day of my 2 months long holiday. Tomorrow I will be starting classes for the 3rd semester. I will be having Philosophy and Calculus 2, and I will be meeting Ben in the prior class. Heck, I do wish to have something to do but then some of the classes are just boring. All in all, I have rested well during this semester break and its time to startup all my brain cells for some tough studies again.

Oh yeah, Jocelyn has already left Malaysia to further her studies at the States. I envy her because I was really hoping to go to the US by the beginning of 2008, but my plans got delayed and now I have to wait another 8 more months before that comes true.

Life goes on.........

Happy Christmas Indeed

Hehe, yesterday was probably the most heart warming days I have ever had in a very long time. Me and my girlfriend had actually planned to celebrate my Birthday on Christmas and so we did. I am just gonna make this post a short 1 because the pictures will be doing the explanation for me. Okie so let's start with the first couple of pics.





Cookies ! All baked by my girlfriend. My goodness she is so sweet to have learned how to bake them for me. She told me that she spend the whole day doing it, and I was so touched because she really did put a lot of effort into making them. Her mom told me that she had actually made a lot more, but some failed, and some got eaten by somebody else. Personally, I know she really did try her best to make it a succes, and I really love those cookies that she baked because she used her heart into making it and also because it really tasted good.




Later, we went shopping at 1 Utama, met Wai Hong and Patricia there but did not really had much time to chat as everyone was minding our own business =P. Probably the only major decoration for Christmas that we have seen in 1U was this stage right in the middle of the new wing.



For dinner, we went to Shogun to eat(hey, I like Japanese food so I did not mind eating it even if it was Christmas), and it was at there that my girlfriend handed me my Birthday present. Ta~da my present was an original PC game, Gears of War. As someone who breathes and eat computer games, this is the ideal present for me =). I love her so very much because she has given me a really memorable Birthday celebration, and also the first Christmas that I have ever celebrated in my life. *Kiss*

Birthday Weekend

I know I know everyone only has one Birthday a year, but what I am talking about is of the English calendar( or whatever you call it) and the Chinese Calendar. Saturday, which was the 22nd of December is my actual Birthday but on the following day, which is the 23rd of December, it is my birthday based on the Chinese Calendar.


This year's Birthday really has nothing much to bragged about. In fact, the day started out quite sucky, because I had earlier planned a date with my girlfriend the day before. On the morning of my Birthday while I was having breakfast, when I informed my mom that I was going out, she immediately said I had to stay home or at least come back before the Reunion Dinner. The Reunion Dinner is of course not because of my Birthday, but it just so happens, that very same day is our Chinese's Guo Dong Festival (no idea what the English name is). Hoorah for me, I had to call off my date with my girlfriend and stay home (we usually only come home at around 8-9, so we knew we could not make it back).

Worse yet, at about 2 pm, my mom came into my room and told me that if I wanted to go out I could. Only thing was, at the very same moment, my girlfriend was already going out to visit her grandmother who is in the hospital. I felt really moody at first, emo-ing, and such, but later things took a turn for the good.

At about 8 something, my girlfriend asked me whether I would like to go out for a movie and so I did. Immediately went to pick her up and went to Leisure Mall to watch I Am Legend. We were rushing quite a bit, but I could not complain about it, because that was probably the few hours that had saved my 19th Birthday from being a complete disaster. When I finally reached home, it was a couple of minute passed midnight. I did enjoy myself by the end of the day, because I was spending time with the person I love the most, my lovely lovely girlfriend. = )

So, about "I Am Legend", the movie is not too bad actually but it is also not as good as I would have imagined. Mainly because, the movie only lasted one and a half hour, just when I thought things were starting to become really interesting. [SPOILER WARNING- Highlight between the tags to read the sentence]Someone had to go pull the pin on the grenade and go KABOOM with the rest of the undead. [SPOILER WARNING]

For some reason, the movie reminded me of Heroes, when the Shanti virus was unleashed and cause a pandemic that killed a major percentage of the world's population. And what did you know, both movies featured a virus infected New York city which is abandoned/ infested. If anyone had recently watched Resident Evil: Extinction, this movie is quite similar to it only it is slightly better than RE. So depending on whether you like stories about vampires/ zombies or just like to have ur adrenaline pumping, you should think twice before watching this movie.

Important Gaming Post

Okie this is probably the first, not even half an hour after I have written the first post, I am already working on the 2nd. Okie less talk more stuff to see for urself why this is so the "must share" news.

First look at this video clip.


Next, look at this bundle.


Okie good. Thats all for this post. If you are a true gamer, you will salivate over the video and next you will wish to take your wallet out and start saving up for that very very tempting PS3 bundle.

Surian Prom '07

Yesterday was all about preparing for the night that my girlfriend have been awaiting since the beginning of the year. She always likes this sort of gathering, but in contrast me who dislike crowded places. What can I say, I am a natural introvert and most likely would still be the same in the near future.Yet, I can still accept this sort of gathering because my girlfriend is there with me. Seriously, do not expect me to go to any freaking function alone. I will either leave after an hour or so, or jump out of the nearest window that I can find. So, last night was rather uninteresting for me, maybe cause there was really not many familiar faces around to talk with. Wai Hong is the only 1 present which I could chat with besides my girlfriend but he has his own partner to attend to also, so well you (should) get it.

The food there was probably very sucky for a hotel's standard. The dessert was probably the more "interesting" dishes. Some of the activities that they had reminded me of my year's prom, and that is actually a bad thing, cause I would rather have that piece of memory erased permanently from my brain. Overall, I think that the night was rather dull. After the prom though, I just took my time to drive home and sidetrack a bit so that me and my girlfriend had more alone time to spent together. I felt more comfortable being around my girlfriend more than anything else. By time I have sent my girlfriend home and arrived home back in my room, it was already 2.22 am. As it was already that late at night, my system was beginning to shutdown. I just changed my clothes, jump onto the bed and next thing I know it was already 11.30 in the morning.

Today, everything was back to normal, read 2 chapters of Starcraft's novel, tried Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts ( it came with the graphic cards that I bought), went looking for my girlfriend for a bit, came home, had dinner, played Monster Hunter and now blogging. Nothing too interesting but that's the way I live my life.

Oh yeah, this week's episode of Bleach is out. Bleach 153 "The Devilish Research! Szayel Aporro's Plan". Ichigo kicked that very same Privaron Espada's ass again and left after that. In the episode almost everyone met an Arrancar/ Privaron to do battle with. Even Rukia met up with an old friend which was supposedly dead, and that is now an Espada serving under Aizen. Thing are starting to heat up, more battle to come.



Still on Bleach, the movie will be out this coming Saturday, on my Birthday! Frankly speaking I wish one of the present I can have on that day is an English subbed Bleach movie. The trailer shown during the opening song of this week's episode really wanna make me pee in my pants. I have a couple of them below. The first screenshot shows Hitsugaya most likely facing against Soul Society and the second is none other than the Captain Commander himself, wonder if he will use his Bankai. He is one very macho old man. XD



Guess thats all this time. I feel like reviewing a game soon just dunno which, any of the reader can recommend 1? Feel free to leave a comment in the chatspace.
