Fruitful night

I was getting bored from being ignored by the damn fishes at the pond. Smart asses it seems. Or was I just a dumb ass. Rival had already moved to another spot and he beckoned me over as the radar was indicating high movement of fishes. Just as I was walking over, his rod dropped and a tug of war began. Was a bloody huge fish that jumped, flapped and snagged. It was a pacu, some relative of the more famous piranha. Weighing 4 kilos, it did scare the Jackpot holder for a while. Even the hook went slightly straight. And behold, the picture of the day...



...

Oops. Wrong pic. My bad my bad. AND behold, the real picture of the day...



The fish that gave him 2 months of bragging rights and SELF PROCLAIMED TITLE of the P-King (which basically means that he catches fishes like Patin and Pacu)

More pics...


Luckily didnt end up empty handed. I have my pride too.

Fishes must have been really hungry that night. An angler opposite me pulled up a 10 kg Tong-san which was the size of a tong gas
and many other fishes. Was a good fishing night.

Managed to squeeze those bloody fat ass fishes into the small freezer, all set for ikan bakar this Thursday. A treat to those asses who had been laughing and sneering at us about fishing and not getting anything.

Cheers.

Petrol hike again

This morning, everybody were ranting about the latest hike of petrol again in Malaysia. A drastic hike of 30 cents compared to the usual hike of 5 cents. So, you can imagine the rants and cursing of everyone in the office. Well, what do you expect from a community who focus on ways and methods to save on fuel consumption. But then again, who am I, one who uses a bike, to crap so much on this topic.

But it was pretty funny seeing all the crap of the people around here.

1. Im gonna ride a bicycle to work.
2. I wanna get a lower fuel consumption car like Kancil.
3. Vote for the opposition party.
4. Car pool.
5. Hike in the price of nasi kandar.
6. Cursing of our fuel claims and increment.
7. Downgrade of engine power.
8. The list goes on...

Sigh. Should have just bought shares of Exxon Mobil and see it shoot sky high.

Fishing class

Went for my fishing class late last night. With my rival of course, who now boasts of 2 patins caught in the school's vicinity.

Reached there to find my lecturer holding a shotgun. Thinking that I came to the wrong class, I was about to open my mouth and ask when he said "Bloody monkeys!". I also learnt that there were otters, monitor lizards, and also pythons for the shooting.

Anyhow, class started and soon enough, we found out that we got our fishing techniques from A-Z wrong. Wrong hook size, wrong knots, wrong bait, wrong technique, wrong anticipation and wrong reaction. All wrong. No wonder we always seem like losers at the other side of the pond.

Were also given an introduction of branded rods and reels and a test use of one of the finest rods in the world. I know you guys now are thinking that its just a rod and reel and how much difference can there be. Well, cant expect much from the majority of people who always say "If want fish, go and buy fish lar!" Our admiration for the rods and reels can be compared to those guys driving Malaysian cars admiring those super foreign cars.

Most enjoyable part of the class was when I was given the chance to reel in a fish. A real fish which was just 2.4 kg but my hand felt all sore and tired after reeling it in. In fact, I couldnt have reeled it in without guidance of the lecturer. That shows how amateurs we were.

Valentine's Eve Crash

My colleague who works 7 days a week and for super long hours, was known as our local iron man.

Last night, he further proved that he really deserved the title.

He was on his way home after long hours of OT when he crashed into a cow and flew more than 10 feet away from his bike.

He survived with just bruises and scratches.

Depressing figure....

I was walking with my auntie the other day at Malacca, when she bumped into her old classmate. After hugs and greetings, her classmate looked at me and said "Oh, you have ure brother along." My aunt is in her late 40s or is she in her early 50s. Man...do i really look that old...or do brothers usually come in young packages.

Was hanging out with an old friend at Chilis yesterday when she noticed that one of the waiters was her coursemate. They started chatting for a while and this dude looked at me and asked the gal "Your brother?". Bloody hell. Is the word friend some taboo word or do I really have a brotherly face. URGH~! Seems like I'm turning out to be everybody's brother.

On another issue, my friend's friend was going through her pictures when she stumbled upon my picture. The question of how old I was came up and the guess of my age was shocking. The guess was that I was in my 30s and to make things worse, late 30s. URGH~!! SHATTERED~!! HOPELESS~!!

Oh, and there's this guy I met yesterday at KLCC. There was this guy who suddenly approached me. Thinking that he was just asking for directions, I stopped for a while. Then i noticed it. I noticed the fucking badge on his shirt which says "I LOST 8 KG IN TWO WEEKS. SO CAN YOU~!". FUCK~!!!!!!!!!! Even said "You'll look more handsome if you lose some weight!" FUCK~!!!!!!!!!! Doesnt that make Lobak sound handsome???? Whats wrong with being fat~!? Shit. Most of the Buddhas are fat and people worship them. Fuck him.

More pics

This series of pics were captured at another one of my regular fishing spots. Its a small pond just beside the Sepang Formula 1 Circuit. It never crossed my mind that there were fishes there. But somehow, one day, out of curiosity, I just stopped by when I noticed some people fishing over there. I've been going there ever since.


Fishing right after work in formal wear.

Only lazy buggers like us who dont give a damn to the line use bells.


Rival, trailing one lampam and 2 catfishes at this pond.

Random pics

Had been taking some pics throughout the new year and since I have nothing better to do now, here they are.


My kampung in Malacca where I spend my most of my holidays at. Great childhood memories where I spent most of the time fishing and hanging out.


More pics of my kampung.


Some more pics of my kampung.


Me and my land



The house couldnt accomodate 4 families, so most had to sleep in the hall which was in fact cooler than the rooms.


Common activity during CNY. Luckily didnt get caught and shaved bald.


Some waterpump.


My family's roadsign. Minus the H.


Rat bait which I thought was rice. Was playing with it until my cousin told me.

Our fishing haven

We'll miss you ... NOT

Bob is history.




And will only remain a memory.




Maybe not even a memory.




Bob is history.






Note: My bad. He just got his first warning letter. Haha Damn. Cant believe I even wrote a poem for him.

Fishing Mania

Went fishing again last night. I just noticed the similiarity between fishing and gambling. If you dont win/catch anything, you'll carry on gambling/fishing in hope you win something. And if you do win/catch something, you get greedy and want more.

Ended up fishing for 5 hours last night.

This time, went there with a new recipe which was supposed to be a fool proof sure catch bait. Mixed chicken feed (low grade + high grade), flour, water and BELACAN. The smell was so pungent and it stung our nostrils. Got the whole car stinking badly and we were damn sure of a catch. Good shit.

...

Caught shit that night.

Desperate mom

Wonder whats wrong with my mom. Had been saying lots of funny stuff like "That gal is a good cook and she s sooo polite. I like her. Why dont you court that gal?" or "That gal is not bad looking. You re not interested?"

Wtf was the first thing that came to my mind.

But I guess I cant blame her. Two of her sons have left the house and the once loud and noisy home is now quiet. So, guess she's kinda miss the good old days. And now she wants grandchildren as substitute. Haha

Maybe its time I go home more often.

Life goes on...

Here I am. Back to office after half a month of pure bliss. Cant believe Im finally awake before noon. Urgh~! My biological clock still needs retuning and i'm now fighting to stay awake. How nice would it be to have a couple of months more off. But I'd be 200kg if the holiday got any longer.

I was weighing myself a week before Chinese New Year started. 98kg. Aint too bad as it once touched 105. Anyway, after a week of binging and sleeping round the clock, I came upon the same weighing scale again. Hesitated for a while as I realized that the flabs around me were getting really out of hand. Never noticed the flabs there before. Anyway, it touched 102kg this time~! In just a week. Biggest jump of the week.

Well, Chinese New Year was boring. I only did two things - visiting and gambling. Went visiting in shorts and sandals this year and was half naked most of the time at home. Gambling was good at kampung where I managed to cheat those younger cousins and see them moan and groan at their loss. Back in Kluang, was suprised to see how high the stakes has risen now that everyone has joined the working force. Lost quite a bit back in hometown.

...

Now that I think about it, I didnt do anything else besides hogging on my PS2. What a way to waste my vacation. Urgh~! And now Im back at work. Life sucks.
