Ever changing passion

I wonder if I can even call it passion.

Had been changing my activities here so often that my colleague here started critisizing my everlasting passion for stuff.

Lets see. Over one year of service here, what have I tried.

1. Planted tank.


Tried re-living my planted tank hobby from University days but failed miserably. Bloody water pressure here was so bad that it was just so damn inconvinient to fill up the aquarium. And I only realized that after getting an aquarium and filling it up with sand and wood. And I'm living on the 4th floor with no elevators. I think my spine is still a bit crooked today after trying to move all those sand.

2. Reading

A season where I finally decided to feed my brain something meaningful. It felt so peaceful spending a nice quiet evening reading, reading and just reading. Books after books. I was totally absorbed into the world of whatever I was reading and it was just wonderful. Finally, reality sank in and I realized that all I was looking at was static text. Urgh. I was living in a world of dillusion.

Stopped for a while and I'm now back to reading where I only read shit. Currently reading The Alphabet of Manliness and that's good shit.

Next book I wanna read: Why do men have nipples.

3. Sudoku

My aunt came back from Australia one day and found it painful looking at me prancing about the house topless. Taught me how to do Sudoku and I was hooked for a while. Scavenged all the old newspaper in the house for Sudoku.

Stopped when I was told that the average time to complete a puzzle was just 5 minutes. My average was 30 minutes.

4. Fishing (pay-ponds)

Fishing used to be so fun. Good old days where I could spend the whole day getting burnt under the sun and get a fish or two. Lately, I guess Poseidon has forsaken me and I haven't caught anything in a pretty long time. Alright, I know nuts about Greek mythology and I have a feeling that Poseidon has nothing to do with fishing.

Anyway, my point would be that I'm paying cash and I'm not even catching nuts out there.

5. PS 2ing.

Till this day, I never regret buying that PS2 of mine. It's there for me when all is dark and sad and lonely. I've had my good times with it. I've had depressing times with it. Grandia 3, God of War, Tekken 5, Fight Night 3 was just so cool. Jaws Unleashed was just bullshit.

Well, PS2 was collecting dust for a while there when I decided to pay Kiwi a visit. Played Burnout2 Revenge and it was so cool. Guess that will keep me occupied for a while.

Time spent on hobby: 8 months

6. DOTA ing.

My biggest success so far where I managed to poison most of my colleagues here. It was fun seeing how they grow. Use to slaughter them and see them squeel like pigs but now they manage to put up a little fight. Zero team work to some half assed team work. Still get slaughtered by other players though.

Fucking repetitive and boring game but still get dragged to the cyber cafe by colleagues. Regret spreading the virus in the first place.

7. Anime, Manga and Simpsons

Animes and mangas, good ones, bad ones, I've been through them all. Still consistently watching/reading them till this very day. Just got my hands on the 51 episodes of Full Metal Alchemist and I am happily rewatching every bit of it.

Simpsons, good shit and needs no introduction. I'll never get bored of them.

Time spent on hobby: 5 years

8. Excercising

9. Porn


10. Hentai


11. Dieting


Well, that's about it. Didn't realize myself that I've been doing this much shit over a year.

And I'm still bored, uncontented and passionless.

Wonder how long more before I leave my death note.



Peer Pressure

Sunny, a colleague of mine used to be all quiet and passive. Yea, passive would be the word. However, after a year of mixing with assholes, he too evolved and started devoting himself to assholism.

Was sitting in his car when I noticed a miniature Ferrari car on his dashboard.

MJ: Hey, what's this? (Picking up the car and believe me, that wasn't a question)

Sunny: If I told you that was a potato, would you believe me?

MJ: ... what the fuck~!!?? KNN~!

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

Yea, I know ... now its you guys going wtf.

Sigh.

This blog is getting dry. As dry as my current life.

Sigh.

An American Haunting

Second bad movie in a row. I wonder if I'm just not meant to watch movies or was it just retribution for the fake MC I took the next day.

An American Haunting. My first horror film in a while. Had always wondered why people pay money to scare the shit out of themselves. Don't blame me for this mentality. Those were the exact words of my dad. Anyway, the movie was a big piece of shit, even shittier than Superman. On the second thought, I might actually enjoy Superman already.

A ghost show is supposed to be eerie and spooky, but this show was just filled with sudden loud noise accompanied by something that suddenly jumping out from a corner. Who wouldn't get shocked from that? Even if you're anticipating it, the sudden bursting sound effect and stuff will surely make you jump a little. And that fucking show did that every 5 minutes. At the end of the show, I was all stiffed up from all that bullshit. And it was those kind of movies where I go wtf when the credits suddenly come rolling.

Sigh.

Time to go back to books.

Anime again

Ran out of entertainment the other day, so I started digging through my dusty not-so-old portable hard disk. Found lots of unwatched porn, cartoons and anime.

FMA-movie

Finally decided to watch Fullmetal Alchemist: Conqueror of Shambala and that decision made my day. I know I'm so outdated now when it comes to anime and all I'm watching now are old stuff. But FMA The Movie was just so cool. I just love scenes where old heroes from the past reunite and join arms to battle. Made me want to watch the whole series over again. Anyone out there still have a copy of it?

Ninja Scroll

And I finished Ninja Scroll The Series as well. Well, for this anime, I wasn't really moved by it. Nothing special. A typical slice and dice anime with the usual trademark of animes - a lousy ending. In one word - boring.


KLIA Casualties

BlewUp Edited

It was a dark day in Advance Cargo Centre, KLIA where a desktop computer blew up, killing 5, injuring 23 and 7 missing. It was just bloody.

What a grim day indeed.

Monday Morning

Monday morning.

My Monday morning was greeted by the pathetic sound of my soon-to-be ex-team lead/colleague.

"Shit~! There's only 2 of us here today. Kena Jackpot (meaning that we had a lot of cases that morning) ~! So early got so many already~!"

That practically spoiled my day. And I don't mean the heavy work load but the pathetic acting I had to witness on a Monday morning. All those dramatic attempt to potray his emotions when he never plan to lift a finger in the first place. Made my breakfast taste so stale.

Zero team play. All this gotta change once my soon-to-be ex-team lead becomes my ex-team lead.

Don't mind me.

Just a Monday morning rant. I'm cranky from insufficient sleep.

Foreign fishes

Came across this post at Boingboing.net and it just felt funny. That fish with human like teeth aka pacu is a pretty common fish over here. Quite a game fish where those ugly teeth can bite through hooks and line. Over here, people catch them so often and that we get sick of it while over there in Texas, there seem to be a big hoo-haa.

But I guess it was the same situation when we caught a bass over here. Old post where someone caught a Peacock Bass.

Sometimes I do wonder how did these foreign fishes get into our local waters.


This is a meaningless post but I just love this picture from Megatokyo.

Boredom has taken a new toll where static pictures seem entertaining nowadays.

Flesh Frenzy

Was chatting with a friend when the topic of groping in public places came up. Basically, almost everyone of her friends has experienced being a victim of sexual harassment. Being pinched in the ass and groped in the tits was quite a norm, but one of her friend's experience was pretty disturbing. There was this guy rubbing at her ass, and she found out later that her back was filled with semen. The guy fucking masturbated on her on the LRT. And I thought that this kinda scenes only happen in hentai manga. It's time to start inventing something like a portable penis cleaver or ripper.

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

Watched 'Superman Returns' last night and I was so hoping for the sequal 'The Death of Superman'. One of the most boring shows I've ever seen so far. A freaking long movie where this 'lelaki besi' (I wonder how they are gonna translate Iron Man if that show ever comes out) goes around saving people with no actual enemy to defeat. Urgh. Why do I always have to choose to watch the sucky shows.

Should have just watched Remp-it.

Herbal Life Formula 1

I'm still wondering how the hell did I get convinced to try one of those expensive diet drinks. Sigh. Hundred over bucks for a bottle of something that looked like Milo. I'm gonna use that bottle for a very long time. A very long time.

So, that diet drink is supposed to be able to replace one full meal. Mixed it up with low fat milk and it actually tasted quite good. Tried it the other day and I suffered from hunger the whole night. Had it again last night and joined my housemates for dinner thinking that I'd just have a drink. Plan backfired and ended up binging. Tonight, I screwed the drink and I'm going for buffet.

I have a feeling that this diet plan is gonna turn ugly.

On a seperate account, one of the users died at the work place just now.

Once again, I am reminded on how fragile life is.

Sigh.


All look the same

Was randomly browsing around when I came upon this site, All Look The Same. I took a short test where I was supposed to point out if the person in the picture was Japanese, Korean or Chinese. And out of 18 pictures, I only managed to get 3 right guesses.

Sigh. Orientals.

Good bye pay ponds

I've had it. Countless hours and cash spent at the pay pond and it's been a while since I caught anything. Even last night resulted with zero catches, unless you consider catching a bat something to be proud of. Yea, a fucking dead bat. My friend caught the dead bat and we were wondering if it was already the Chinese Ghost Festival.

From today onwards, I will hereby announce my retirement from pay pond fishing. Enough cash wasted catching nothing.

World Cup Finals 2006

Italy - France.

Whoever wins the cup doesn't really matter to me.

What really matters would be the team I pick to win.

Had been contemplating who to pick for the last half an hour.

Wonder why am I contemplating so much when i can just choose to not to bet at all and have a nice pleasant night. Turning into an impulsive gambler.

I've clicked on Italy once but then I chickened out.

I've clicked on France once but I can't click to submit my bets.

Sigh.

My blood is boiling now from all the durians I had, so I can't really think straight.

Choices. Choices. Choices.

I clicked on France and submitted my bet.

Too late for regrets.

Now, lets move in with life.

Zwok

Work has been rather blissful these couple of days where there's basically no work at all. Did some surfing around to preserve my sanity and I came upon this site,Zwok.

Zwok

This simple worms-style game kept me occupied for hours. Only complain would be its random arenas and we can't choose who we wanna play with. But then again, it's just a simple fun game so I shouldn't be expecting too much.

Enjoy~!

Noob driver in KL

It just feels great being able to blog today.

Got my new old car a while back and this was the first time driving to KL during rush hour. Brought along a couple of my colleagues so that I don't die alone. I felt lost and disorientated while driving on the road compared to while I'm on the bike. Still need some adaptation to it I guess. Was totally oblivious of my surroundings and had to depend a hundred percent on my navigator. A navigator who directed the way in Mandarin. Not that I totally suck at Mandarin, but I guess I'm two second slow when it comes to left right in Mandarin.


Navigator: Zhuo~! (Left)

Me : Zhuo, zhuo ... oh~! Right~! Shit~! Can't turn~! Too late~!

Navigator: Why didnt you fucking turn earlier???

Me : Zhuo my ass~! Told you I'm a freaking banana.



Anyway, managed to reach our destination - Lowyat and got myself my first 19" LCD. Woo Hoo~! Hmmmmmm, if I cut my rice consumption by two bowls, I should be able to make it through the month.

The ride back was hell. My navigator went on berserk mode and started slamming on the honk whenever a car tries cutting in. He punches the honk whenever he sees some cute gal pass. He even does that when a car moves slow in front.

There goes my hope to live in KL.

Sigh.

Anyway, managed to reach home safely, took a cold shower, read some Buddhist scriptures, and went to bed. Was too shaken to tend to my new toy.

Sniff.

Windy down south

Being the slob I am, I'd always pile up my clothes till last minute before sending them to the laundry. This time I overdid the piling and sent a massive bag filled with all my clothes to the laundry.

Finally. Fresh new clothes. Fresh new shirts. Nice and clean pants. But where the fuck were all my underwears~!!!???? Yea, I do send my underwears to laundry as well. Went back to the laundry and they said denied stealing any of them. Couldn't argue much there I guess.

Sigh. One used underwear and a whole week ahead. I self proclaim that I was too busy to go get a new box of undies, despite fishing, fragging and hanging about the whole week. Had been alternating flipped in, fliped out undie and going bare underneath for a week already.

Tonight's agenda: Shopping.

Back to life

Blog left to rot again.


Had been an intoxicating week filled with gambling and liquour and inhaling second hand smoke. Was up in Genting for a weekend. Got shooed off from the casino for wearing sandals. Again. The last time, I got shooed off for wearing shorts. Bought a pair of nice leather shoes. Went in. Lost a pair of nice leather shoes. Damn. Went back to hotel room. Quenched my thirst with Hennessy and Vodka. Drank till I couldnt feel anything at all. Just remembered waking up to puke my guts out. Again, I vowed to never chug on alchohol again.


Back to work. Back to dragging myself out of bed every morning. Back to the day like any other day.


Back to life.


Damn.
