As you can probably guess, I've been playing too much these days. Usually come back at aroudn 2-3 AM (which is no good) coz I'll usually sleep around 4-5 and have to wake up at 9. No good indeed. But it's been kinda slacking. Had this sleeping party where everybody gathered at Yog's place to just sleep. Haha. We have nothing better to do anyway. I need to clean my room and I know that task is long overdue, but who cares? At least I don't. Not for now.....
Bought a Power User card. I don't really understand why. It's just a game. I think I'm just getting desparate. Desparate for the silver battle axe. I got enough gold to get the general hat, but I don't know why I'm delaying my purchase. Anyway, I got a new HDD case, coz the IDD port for my old one is a little loose and it gets a little annoying coz a little vibration would loosen the contact and it can't be detected. Yog, Mike and me got the MP3 mp3 player from Sur. Ok, maybe it's not a fancy brand, but I don't listen to music on the road anyway. And since everyone's getting one, I might as well. I'm kinda amazed by the sound quality though. It's surprisingly good. $145 for 512MB. Not bad. Seriously, I don't need an iPod. 20GB, and it's white and gay. Mine is silver.
The weather these days is so good. Good for football. I haven't played for quite a while. I played last Sunday, and scored a hat-trick. He he. But it's a pity Arsenal lost to Liverpool. They deserve to lose. It's the worse performance I've ever seen from Arsenal. At half-time, they had NO goal attempts. Crap.
I kinda want to watch a movie today. Haven't been to Crown for a while. But there are no good movies recently. The only one worth watching is probably this treasure thing by Nic Cage, but I dun like treasure hunter movies. Yan said it was good, but I've seen the trailers and previews, and I'm not impressed one bit. Looks like I have to settle with Polar Express.
I kinda want to say something really sarcastic, but I think I'll just redraw for now. Feeling tired. I don't know why, but I kinda miss someone. Hmm. There's no one left for me to bully online. And because of the different time zones, we can't be online at the same time. I need to vent my frustration......and self-adoration!!!!
Seriously, I don't really know what I'm talking about right now. I need to take a shower. Coffee sucks.

I'm finding it a bit hard to blog on a daily basis. Getting lazy and sleepy these days. There's so much to do, and working with people is so hard. Pleasing them is equally tedious. Everybody has their own patience levels, and it's not like many people understand mine very well. I can't please everyone. Doing so would mean giving myself to the world instead of submitting myself to the Lord.
Work on Friday was fun. We counted the votes for the city council elections. Some people just don't know the joy of making easy money. They counted the votes so fast. They probably finished stacks of 50 in 2 minutes. For $23/h, that would be like $0.80. They say it's important to be accurate, so we should take our time. Me and Mike finished a stack of 50 in 20 minutes. So that's like $8. And when something is torn, it usually devalues something, but for a vote that's torn, it actually increases its value. Coz we need to take 10 secs to tape it together and we get an extra 0.7c. It's 0.2c per envelope but if we shuffle it and tidy the stack, we get and extra 10c. Jessie gave us a lot of trouble, coz she finished our stack in 5 mins instead of 20. And for most of the time, me and Mike were just sitting and chatting. And we're paid $23/h for relaxing. How good is it working in Australia. The total salary we made today is as much as what Diana made in one month! Hahahahah.
The ISM party was kinda subdued. It lacked the usual burst of energy of the previous years. And the attendance was kinda pathetic too. Overall, it was pretty quiet. Not much chaos, not really that fun.

It's been kinda tiring these days. Haha. Working on our production had sapped me of my life sources. Managed to get two scenes done today. Gonna be counting the votes for the city council tomorrow. $20 per hour. Who wouldn't wanna do that? Mike, Oncon, Vic and WH will all be there. Ah. I got cell tomorrow. But like what Mike said, screw cell. MUHAHAHAHAHA. Of course he din mean it. I'm kinda reluctant to miss cell, but we got the party on Saturday, so................
We sent Kur to the airport yesterday. I felt kinda bad coz Diana couldn't go (limited car seats) because of me. Well actually, I don't really see why it's my fault, coz I'm a guy, and naturally, I have the right to go and because Kur is one of the Brothers, it's essential that I was there to kick him out of this country. We have to make sure he doesn't get too comfortable here or else he might think of coming back when his Dad disowns him for being too useless. But I just feel bad that she had to walk home alone at night. Maybe she felt rejected, but ah....who cares? Screw that. We let Kur take a ride on those coin-op vehicles, like what Welly did. Just this time, it isn't the fire truck. He looked so embarrassed. Dam you Kur. It costs us $2! And it's more comfortable than the fire truck that Welly sat in. Anyway, it's starting to be a ritual now. Anyone who needs to go through the departure gate should get on those rides first. But Djuwari left early, so we had only one car at the end and 6 persons. Someone had to go in the trunk, and since everyone had served the sentence, it's my turn this time. Haha. Just like the old days. Oh well, I dun really remember much coz I was too tired and sleepy. The only thing I remember was that Yog drove very fast, coz the rev of the tires were really loud and he din slow down when he's turning, so I had a pretty rough time then.
Man, girls are just so annoying sometimes. Firstly, they do what they do best and that is nothing, and secondly, the one thing out of the list that I can come up with that annoys me the most is taking my friends away from me. Of course, they never admit that. They say they respect what their man does, but they never really meant what they say anyway. Before her, he's always with us. Always so commited with what we are doing, but nowadays..... Dam. I mean, I respect that, but it's just the way she occupies his time and she always seem to demand a lot of it. But I don't blame him either. I just want to concentrate on the project, and it was meant to be for him. I don't mind going through the whole thing even if there's not going to be a result, coz it's my last gift for him. But what can I do when he himself is not putting any commitment in this? It is his dream, and I want to help fulfill it. Oh well. There has to be the ugly to contrast the good looking.
Initial D is getting really exciting these days. Dam. I haven't watched such a cool anime in a long time. And seriously, Naruto is getting more boring. It sucks anyway. They are straying away from the comics and had just recently came back to it. But still, those times had waded my interest in it. And it's supposed to be an anime about ninja. They dun dress like ninjas to start with, and those moves they have are a little fake. They're not cool enough. And where's the sword?
Monday, November-22-2004, 4:39 AM
Almost done. I can't wait.
I have't had a proper room for the most part of the year and now that I have it, I find it hard to maintain the habit of closing my door (coz I don't have one before). Haha. Just a minor issue. And using my USB as a threshold for my ADSL slows down my ports. It doesn't take that long to transfer a 200 MB file via USB 2. And my webcam isn't as flowing as it used to be. Dam. But I have to sacrifice it because of my sister (who only has USB 1.1. How tragic).
They guys are starting to bully me :'( Hahaha...Kur, don't go. But it's ok. I beat Yoga at chess. Kur want's to challenge me tomorrow. Yea, just one game before he leaves. We had this testimonial CS game for Kur tonight. Everybody always makes fun of the things he says and the way he camps in CS, but today, everyone made a toast not too. But you can see how the guys find it so hard just to hold back. Wen kept repeating that we should control our tongue, but he kept saying the wrong things. Haha.
And how dare you say I am emotionless? I cried when my team didn't make it into the finals. I was happy to leave for Australia coz I don't have to see my old friends again. And I was sad when I found out that Kermit the Frog is just a puppet. See. I have feelings too.
Sunday, November-21-2004, 7:08 PM
Done with the cabling. There're no wires all over the place now. And I think that was the only thing I did today, coz I can't be bothered doing anything else. The football results for this week is totally not in my favour. Then again, nothing always goes that way. Madrid seriously needs a revival. And getting Robinho will not help, Perez. Get Emerson and sell Woodgate, you prick. We have no defensive mids. And Remon fielded 4 attacking mids against Barca yesterday. What was he thinking? Ahh.....
Saturday, November-20-2004, 3:08 AM
Praise the Lord. Another life is saved. My younger sis was talking to me on MSN early this morning, telling me about the problems back home. Yeah, it's quite distressing to know that such problems are present in the family, but all I can do from here is to pray about it. I heard from sis that she believed in Jesus, but I just wanted to be sure. So I asked her about what she knows and what she believes. Yeah, it was still premature, but I guess it's good enough for a start. So I helped her pray the sinners prayer and for once....no....for the first time in my life, I heard her say that she loves me. Hahaha. That sounds so unlike her 2 years ago, coz back then, all we did was fight and argue. Oh well, God can do amazing things.
I slept at about 6am, and I had to wake up at 8 for the FG course. And throughout the duration, I had to fight the urge to fall asleep. My eyelids felt so heavy.
Before I came to Aus, I always thought that the people here are civilised, cultured...etc. They still are, to some extent. They dress up very well here during the day. But the nightlife in Melbourne (at least), to me, is kinda distasteful. I suppose pubs are really a symbol of the western society. But the alcohol just isn't doing them any good. They get all noisy and violent at night, especially on Fridays and Saturdays, and their breathe smells so bad then. And sometimes, I get to see young women at their very worst and disturbing sights. It's looks so degrading to the human that was made in God's image. Of course, I'm not saying that it's wrong. It's just a product of the freedom they experience here. The culture and all. The eastern culture is shaped around moral and social laws and there's really a huge contrast between the two. And for someone who comes from an oriental background, the most livable city in the world (well, it was voted that way) ain't any more livable from any other western city (I've been to the US, and they look all the same to me anyway).
Someone once said to me that earrings on men were viewed as taboo before, but now, it's becoming increasingly popular. I'm totally biased about this coz I don't like Becks and he wears earrings on both sides. To me, that's just totally gay. Those who had only one are either gender confused or gay. What I can say to that person who quoted the opening sentence is "Yeah right." I mean, look at the fashion magazines like GQ and FHM. I don't remember seeing any male models in it with ear studs, and they dun advertise those accessories either. Earrings are viewed as female accessories and let it be that way. I just feel abit annoyed at this guy I saw at King of Kings who acted like a pimp just because he had like 3 rings on the same ear. Don't think you can be a punk just because you had those things. You still look gay to me, you wimp.
Friday, November-19-2004, 3:08 AM
Long gone are the days of old dial-up connection. Just got my ADSL account activated. I'm not really sure how to setup the whole network, but I just managed to get myself online. So I guess that's a good thing. My sister can wait. Haha. I'm just wondering why it says I have a connection speed of 12Mbps.
Anyway, Kur is leaving soon, so during cell, we all get to share what we think about him. I guess every comment is almost the same, and I can also see that even though the brothers like bullying him, they all respect him a lot too. Who would have thought, his worst rival is his best admirer. Hahaha. Mike, your true colours are revealed. Wimp. He almost cried. I think many will miss him. And the brothers said they'll start to bully me from now on :(
Got some usfeul tips regarding interviews and resume writing from the brothers. CS was alright. Jessie joined us. She killed me with a headshot from long range! And WH must be spoiling her coz he taught her to buy the carbine. Man, and I only taught HY how to buy the MP5. Kids nowadays are so spoilt. And she even shot me in the head with it several times. Other than that, I kinda suck. Had this terrible headache after the game. Got to wake up early for the Franklin Graham thing tomorrow. Hehe. I still have to do my homework!!!
Wednesday, November-17-2004, 3:14 AM
Some may not believe even if I say it, but I was shifting from 7 pm till 6 am this morning. Gawd. You really won't know how much junk you have until you move. It's a crazy time to move, when it's all dark, but I prefer that time coz that's when there're no idiots with bikes or skateboards on the streets. It takes one hour to go to and fro coz we need to load and unload. And we need to carry those junk up 2 flights of stairs. By 6, the people are already starting to roam the streets, so we called it a day. And I missed the Norway vs Australia match at 7 am coz I fell asleep.
Went scouting for spots for the production. Today is kinda hot. Just like me. But it's a nice day for frappucino. Me, Mike, Yoga and Con went to Royal Womens' to check out on Maria. She just gave birth to a baby girl this morning. Bia....er....I forgot her name. Hahah. But she looks hideous. Well, she's not as cute as me when I was born. Of course, I din say that in front of the parents. Even Oncon said the girl is unlucky, reason: sebab dia cina. Wahahaha. Racist man. LOL. Another kid is born into this world, another pain. This may offend a few people, but if I don't say it then forever I will have to hold my peace. I think the bean bag is kinda annoying. First, it's cotton. Cotton and carpet doesn't mix well. Plus when you got pets in the house it's just a nightmare. Animals like Mike and Kurniawan shed their fur everywhere. I was just discussing with sis. Kids don't have experience with buying things. I mean, think about the hassle of keeping that thing. Think about the material. Think about the owner. Throwing it out would be too harsh. Keeping it will be too hard. I'm in a dilemma. Kids are just so problematic. That's why all the problems in the world are named after them : childish, kidnapping, child abuse, child labour, child porn. I suppose the only problem you'll be in when you grow up is adultery.
I don't know what's the fuss about a new baby. I guess I can't appreciate it yet. I have no sense of fatherhood. Not quite there yet. But it looks really vulnerable. Sandy asked if I wanna hold it and I declined. It looked dirty and all wrinkly. HAHAHA.... No thanks mate. The fragility of a person's life lies in my hands. I'm not ready to hold that kind of responsibility. Pastor Chris and Noelyn where there to pray for them and we had dinner at Nasi Lemak House together. Chris is just like me and Yoga: a comic freak. During dinner, we're talking about Transformers, and TMNT and Marvel and DC Comics. Wahahha. Cool man. Never knew that. And he collects toys like us too. He he.
Joined the guys for CS 1 hour before AE closes. Our lifestyle is beginning to feel predictable. But it's never gonna get boring. Being an APENKZ is paradise.
Monday, November-15-2004, 3:02 AM
Yet again, the Lord was there for me today. In my times of need. You are faithful.
Julian helped drive my TV from JB to my new place. Had wanted to to move in complete by Wednesday. Lots of moving to do tomorrow. I wanna go to Smith St.
I can't believe it. Johnson told me he forgot my real name coz he kept calling me my nick. Wahaha. What am I supposed to say? Was playing with the other Johnson's friends in CS. HAha. We were winning at the start in dust, then when there were like 16 players, my com start to lag coz I was the server.
Someone introduced me to Maplestory. 2D side scroller. Kinda like the classic Super Mario Bros. It's an online game with no storyline. And it's supposed to be an RPG. Boring. And the worst part is, you can't kill your friends. Boring. What's the point of me being at lvl 80 if I can't kill the lvl 1 noobs with one strike? They won't be afraid of me and without fear, they won't do as I say. I'm sure it's gonna be fun for the first few weeks, I'll bore myself to tears after a while. I'll just stick to GB and since Kur is new, me and Mike can bully him for a few more months before he gets good.
3:43 AM - Time to watch The Godfather.
Sunday, November-14-2004, 7:09 PM
I dun like it. The person calls me gon! That's a puppy name my homies call me. Stop acting you know me. I don't even know you. Mierda que boca bulario apura pe causs amor.
Arsenal 5-4 Tottenham. 9-goal thriller. Cygan is crap, and his performance is rubbish. Lehmann is doubtful too. Man, conceding 4 goals to Spurs is a disgrace man. If Campbell was there, if would have been different. Who knows? 3 goals in 5 mins and 5 goals in 17 minutes. It's certainly a derby classic. But it doesn't really matter, coz Chelsea won 4-1 anyway. Dam. Didn't get to wear my jersey today afterall.
Haha. Me, Kur and Mike teamed up against some other noob in server 1. Kur's kinda crap, but it's alright, coz he just started. And there was once he bunged an opponent with one dual. Goodness. That lucky bastard.
My TV just arrived. But I can't get it yet coz I don't have any transportation. And I found a place that sells the plants I wanted. And Mike's trying to sell me this 512MB USB/MP3 player worth $160. So tempting man. Hu hu....I'm getting broke.
I got a daily bible reading guide. I'm eager to finish reading the whole bible by the end of next year. If I'm diligient enough, I might read through it twice by then. If I want to be able to minister to the newcomers next year, I'll have to equip myself better. Life just seems more meaningful these days. Full of purpose. Yeah, I'm just blogging early coz I'll have to leave to play CS with the brothers before watching Newcastle vs MU. Typical weekend for the APENKZ. Wish I have homework or assignments or exams.....
What's not so good about taking over the world? You get to oppress people. Ain't that a good feeling? Nyah nyah nyah. How does it feel, when people shudder at the sound of your footsteps, kneel at the sound of your breath and faint at the sight of you winking? It's a jolly good feeling if you ask me. I once had this dream, that everytime I step into Terazone and people see the nick Weapon X (that was before I became Ground Zero), they would quit their games coz they know they'll be in for a beating. And indeed they were. Until this idiot who calls himself KFC beat my score on the very last day of the competition. Ahhh....my kingdom!!! But now, I hold the key to world domination. The wind chart I found on mediafighter.com which I can't figure out how to use YET, will help me be the best in GB. And my minions, Mike and Kur will help me beat the Ignitors guild and then, conquer the world.....of GB. See. It's a good feeling right? Social injustice, oppresion, depression, you name it. I love it when the good prevails over evil.
Saturday, November-13-2004, 9:17 PM
Wasn't really sure what I was doing there until I got there. Well, it's been a long time since I attended one of these courses. It's good in a way, coz I kinda feel like I'm going to do something big. But homework?? Ahh....oh well. At least it'll keep me occupied. The last course I attended was 2 years ago, and that's for some sort of BOD training, which my dad insisted I went. Coz nowadays in Malaysia, you're not eligible to be a BOD if you dun hold that certificate. And it's just by chance that they're having the course at my hometown. So my dad made me go. It was boring coz then, I don't know anything about business laws or corporate laws. The cert looks good to say the least. And the previous of those courses I went to was the NCO training course. Ha. At least, I was interested about it, coz it meant I can be an NCO with that cert. But I got it after I became an NCO though. And even before S/Sgt. Mike. And he was a Sgt. at that time. Wonder how he's doing. And S/Sgt. Rennie. And Lt. Hu, can Capt. Jospeh. Might pay them a visit when I go home. And probably boss the new Pte.s around. Muahahahaha....
She seemed pretty energetic today. Maybe it's because she just finished her VCE. So much energy I can feel. Reminds me of my youth. It's good to see her back in business. But it's not over yet. You can only bet your money on the fact that it's only gonna get harder. Oh yeah, my younger sis probably finished her SPM already too. She said she wanted to take a 6-month break before studying again. What an idiot. But I don't blame her. I had the same idea when I finished my SPM too.
Had lunch at Chilli Cafe to celebrate JiEun's departure. Ha.... I never thought it was a good idea, and we had like 25 people. The people around her would be talking to her and those at the other end of the table were talking among themselves. It can't be helped. Coz all the good looking ones are together. Hahaha... But I think it's not doing any justice to JiEun, coz those who attended the lunch should be there with the motive of making the rest of her time here memorable. At least I was. And we went to Win Long yesterday coz she said she wanted to go there for dinner. But when the F3 and Julian was there, she's nowhere. What's the point of going there then? I was hungry so who cares? I kind of find some of the things the person (identity hidden to protect the innocent) says a bit annoying. And the way it (gender protected too) says it too. And its attitude too. Ah. I suppose that's where grace comes in. Over the years, the mafia brothers have been serving me. It's my turn to serve this time.
It was cold. And I din have a jacket on. I passed by this shop that says '50% off all stock' and bought a shirt from there to shield the frost. I wasn't out when it hailed, so that's still OK. When the sales lady asked me where I'm wearing it to tonight, I don't know what to answer. "Just gonna add it to the closet". And she gave me this look. What? And I think I was in the middle of racist prejudice in these stores, coz I went to a few, and the salespersons only asked the local customers if they need any help, whereas they just ignored me....>:( And I got to think of something to do with the pink polo shirt. It's an eyesore in the black mass of textiles in my wardrobe.
Friday, November-12-2004, 5:47 AM
Dear Lord, whatever that will happen after this, I submit all into Your hands.
9:11 PM @ 13/11
Been feeling very restless lately. Chin Ming coming to cell was good. His accent reminds me of home, but I dun really yearn for it at the moment. Have found my flow again in many areas, which is always good. Wasn't completely happy with the outcome though. Ah. But I trust God to provide. Troubled by still at peace. Everything's almost settled. I might have to go home early :( Things aren't going as planned, and I'm kinda worried if it can be finished in time. Probably not. We're bitter of last minute work again, but I have pledged my full-time commitment to it. If it's your wish, God, make it happen.
Hehe. 2 years ago, I always thought you'll find out who your true friends are when you leave. And I still belive that now. We were writing on the card for JiEun and once one started pasting stuff on it, everybody follows. So then, at the end, the card was full of newpaper cuttings, some that don't even make sense, coz the people were just cutting and pasting for the sake of doing it. And I like Ben's style too. Coz all he does is write his name beside another person's name so that he doesn't have to write a message. Kinda like claiming fake partnership. And I do believe you can use hidden messages in what you say. We were discussing where to go for JiEun's farewell lunch tomorrow. "Why don't we let her Mc D decision?" If you wanna emphasize it, you say it again, "Why don't we let her Mc D decision....ahem....McD?" Hahaha. Everybody's so competent.
Thursday, November-11-2004, 12:57 AM
Relatively quiet day. Have been in front of the computer for 12 hours. Well, at least close to it. I was a little amazed at the increasing number of the population of APENKZ. So many of us are unemployed. But that's good. For the strength of the Brotherhood. United we stand, divided we marry again. (Hey it rhymes!!!)
GB went berserk today. Can't download the update, and when it does, it kept turning itself on and off. Strange. Oh well, no GB tonight then. Coz if I could get a few extra wins today, that'll be way cool. I'm so close to reaching my target. Just 1400GP to go. I'm almost there.
Girls are weird. They keep contradicting themselves.
They say they are scared of watching horror movies, but they refuse to turn off the TV. They say they want to diet, but they still continue eating. What in the world? And one girl told me that that's why we guys find girls facinating coz they're so unpredictable and contradictory. Does that mean we guys are predictable and coherent? Hahaha.... Well, speaking of diets, most diets dun work because they keep you thinking about food all the time, guaranteeing that you'll be hungry. Have you ever watched a food ad on the tele and suddenly felt you were hungry? We naturally move toward whatever we focus our attention on. The more you think of something, the stronger it takes hold of you. That is why repeating "I must stop eating too much" is a self-defeating strategy. It keeps you focused on what you don't want. Temptation begins by capturing our attention. What gets your attention arouses your emotions. Then emotions activate your behaviour and you act on what you felt. I believe that ignoring a temptation is far more effective than fighting it. Once your mind is on something else, the temptation loses its power. Everytime you try to block a though out of your mind, you drive it deeper into your memory. By resisting it, you actually reinforce it. Since temptation always begins with a thought, the quickest way to neutralize its allure is to turn your attention to something else. Having said that, we should play football. It's gives you a total body workout and you din have to think about food for 2 hours (4 hours for the APENKZ. That's why we're all so fit).
And one more thing. The secret to improving your English is reading more books. For starters, you can begin with easy-to-read books like "Cinderella, Humpty Dumpty and Little Red Riding Hood". LOL
Yasser Arafat died. Oh crap. No more free war movies on TV.
Wednesday, November-10-2004, 4:03 AM
Dam. I woke up too late. Thanks for sleeping at 6 AM. Ah. GB ain't doing me any good. Was on a winning streak though. Totally ruled with Aduka. The FAQ I found online was pretty cool. 60 and 75...the magical angles that do all wonders.
Did a bit of studying. Which I am pretty proud of, coz I haven't studied for the whole semester. This is probably one of the few courses where you don't get to study throughout the semester except during exam periods. And since I have not been exposed to that kind of hostile environment, it just feels so tedious. I mean, once I get on my chair with my pen out, I'm feeling in the groove again, but prior to that, it's hard to even get out of bed.
Discussed a "master plan". Yeah. They're gonna get it soon. Ngieh ngieh ngieh
I think I give in to temptation too easily. I told myself not to, yet, when the guys asked, I agreed. Ah. I'm ISM's black, sprouting flower of acceptance afterall. No good. But it was fun. At least I had a few hours off from work. Kur was the top fragger for dust. How unpredictable. Speaking of Kur, he asked everyone via the cell group mailing list to throw a surprise farewell party to Yoga and JiEun. Didn't he realise that it's a public forum and both of them have access to those e-mails? And he used Raon in GB. Hahaha..... His lack of sleep is doing some damage to his brain.
DOH. OC is like super boring. Man, it's like this bunch of problematic rich guys. I suppose people want to feel this false sense of security to know that even rich people have problems. I know I would. But that's where the boring part comes in. Coz the kids from Orange County only experience relational problems. Man, can't they come up with something better than that? It's like the American version of Neighbours. Maybe they can get John Kerry on the show. Discuss about his plans for America, get into this big fight and Kerry drives his 4x4 into the house. But before that, Spiderman jumps out and tries to stop the speeding train after Shriek turns into a charming prince. Now that's a problem. Coz I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.
Tuesday, November-9-2004, 11:01 PM
He he.... Of all places, Hobby Japan has the House of Flying Daggers DVD. And I got my webcam back. Er....but I don't think I'll be using it though. Haha. Cleared up some more stuff. Erm. Man, there's so much more to do.
Tried out this nasi lemak place at La Trobe. It's alright. The sambal's pretty hot. Just like me. Hehe....yeah, good food for good money.
Heard Out Of The Blue for the first time when Delta performed on Rove. Hahaha... I'm not sure, man. It's pretty suckky to me. Well, just to make sure her fan base doesn't kill me, it's just not my type. It's not the type of song I'll listen to over and over again. Yeah, I suppose it's hard that her private life comes under scrunity in the media. Yesterday, Delta's not with Mark. Today, Delta's not with Mark. Tomorrow, Delta's still not with Mark. Those people in the media should just leave her alone. But since her new song sucks, they can bug her out of her career now. Ha....and she's 20! My age. But she'll have to wait in line like the other girls if she wants me. It's hard being popular.
Just to add on to what I said about men and women yesterday, here's what Rove said on Rove:
"When I was 19 during a break-up, the only thing I cared about was getting all my CDs back from her."
He sounds just like me! But of course, that doesn't make him as cool as me. Kids, being a kid, are just so dumb. He thinks he can imitate me and tried to be smart by twisting what I said to make it sound like it's his. The idea's still mine dude. That's so totally uncool.
Holiday's are gonna be over soon and Uni is gonna start soon. Alright, maybe the hols just got started, but we should look towards the future right? That's why everytime I go to church, the first thing I look for in the bulletin is the menu for lunch. After the service, it's lunch, and I should be prepared for it. Well, I was at Deans looking at stationaries. I always enjoyed looking at them on the walls. And electronics too. Even though I don't need them, the prospect of having them gives me tingles. But when uni starts, all the new kids will be arriving. Like last year, everybody thinks that this Trang girl is so cool, and everyone wants to be her friend and everyone gave her bits of their lunches. She's such a show-off. She turned up every day with fancy outfits and she had a whole new set of Derwents and a Yu Gi Oh pencil case. Sis said there was nothing wrong with my old Faber Castels and Powerpuff Girls pencil case and that no one else would care what kind of stationary I was using. Clearly she knows nothing about politics. Daniel has a whole SpongeBob SquarePants stationary set, and now he and Trang hang out together every lunchtime. It's not fair. I'm Instruman, everyone should want to hang out with ME. Pete said he thought my pencil case was really "neat". My life is over.
Speaking about lives being over, abortion is nasty and wrong. Coz like, killing is bad and stuff. People are saying we shouldn't be telling chicks what to do, but that's news to me, coz I thought the idea of being a superhero was that I tell people what they can and can't do. And I reckon they shouldn't be killing. It's un-Australian. In totally unrelated news, the troops in Iraq have now gone full-on hardcore sick on this one city. They're just totally shooting and bombing the crap out of it. I like watching all the explosions and things blowing up on TV. It's like a movie, but real. I love seeing good triumph over evil.
Me and Han were having this argument about perfume. She was saying she wouldn't wanna smell like Brit coz I was asking if she'll want to try her new Curios line. And she was telling me she wouldn't want to smell like Brit. Crap. What makes she think I want to smell her? Let's see her getting her own perfume line. Don't make fun of my Brit like that. So what if she can't sing? I can't sing either. We have so much in common. And what if she's a singer and I'm not? What's important is what's on the inside, not the outside. Don't start to pick up a fight with me young lady. We are close. Everyday I wake up, she's there smiling at me. Always in the same dress, the same look, the same old poster. You know what a great lover is? He's a person who can satisfy one woman all his life and will be satisfied by one woman all his life.

Heh.... Arranged and cleared up the stuff at my new place. At least it looked like a proper apartment now. A few technical problems that I'll have to fix. Other than that, I'll want to move in ASAP. He he. The lavander fragrance smells nice too.
Went for mystery movie at Rivoli with the guys. The Motorcycle Diary. It's about the journey of the Cuban revolution leader, Ernesto Guevara, from Argentina to Venezuela. I was half expecting the movie to be about the revolution though. Didn't expect it to be about how he came up with the idea of the revolution. And I was also half expecting him to be from a political/military background. Didn't expect him to be a doctor either. Oh well. Not really my kind of movie, but since I know him, I'm not half as disappointed. Saw the trailers for House of Flying Daggers too. It's an old movie. And they're just gonna show it here now. Oh yeah, heard that Hero has lots of swordfights and blood. He he. Might wanna catch that soon.
Was on a winning streak today. Kur, Yoga and Wen are starting to play GB too. Yeay. We can start a clan soon. Muahaha.... There was once where Jule tried to establish a peace treaty with me (meaning I don't shoot her and vice versa). I agreed, so she aimed at someone else but when it was my turn, I shot her anyway. She called me 'ungentlemenly' for breaking the treaty. Say what? It's international policy that we don't negotiate with terrorists. What is she talking about? Haha.. But today was fun. Mike's so happy he got his flamengo dress. Yeah Mike. It feels different, but still as ugly. The dress might have changed, but the face doesn't. LOL.
Tsk tsk. Some poeople just won't know how to take advantage of the situation. If someone offer to buy you something, it's always in your best interest to pick the most expensive one. My dad offered to buy me lots of things. Even more so nowadays, not so much when I was a kid. I don't know why. But it always seems to give him a sort of satisfaction when he buys something for his son, coz he knows I'll appreciate it :) There's nothing like buying something for someone who does not see the worth from your eyes. So he'll buy me lots of gadgets like phones, cameras, computer parts, toys, models..... coz he knows I love them. It's paradise when Dad's willing to flash his wallet. Coz then, he'll be able to trap me into working for him with no salary to pay for all the things he bought for me. Haha....and my usual pitch for getting him to buy me something would be "If you buy that, I'll work for you for no salary." Haha. I'll see him taking out his wallet soon. I guess that's what differentiate most guys from the girls. Guys tend to be more materialistic, whereas girls are more relational. I saw this movie on TV. The guy's house was broken into and the wife was talking to the husband on the phone:
Wife: They took the TV.
Husband: Oh no.
Wife: They took the baby as well.
Husband: But did they take my favourite golf club set?
Wife: It's gone.
Husband: Ahhhh!!!!
The golf set is more important to the guy than his own baby. And there's also a scene in the moive I watched earlier when the bike crashed and there's no way of fixing it. Alberto cried because of that. I know I would get really upset if I crashed my bike. I remembered having a dream where I woke up one morning to find all the parts in my computer gone. Someone had broken into my apartment and stole my computer parts. The twat took my mb, my HDD, my cables, my SB......but he left the empty case there. I jolted up from my sleep and actually went to my table to see if my computer was still intact. Luckily, it was. The day I broke up with my ex-gf, I was still playing football with my friends. Sorry, but I'm just not a romantic person. It runs in my blood.
Ehh...the "footprints in the sand" poem is still around. Amazingly. Mary Stevenson wrote it in 1936! And it's still alive today:
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints.
Other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed that
During the low periods of my life,
When I was suffering from anguish, sorrow, or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to the Lord, "You promised me, Lord,
that if I followed you, you would walk with me always.
But I noticed that during the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one set of prints in the sand.
Why, when I have needed you most, you have not been there for me?
The Lord replied, "The times when you have seen only one set of footprints is when I carried you.
I admit I'm not a very poetic person. I don't appreciate these kind of stuff. But this is one of the few that touched me (and I even bothered to read). He he. But wait till you hear the "parody of the footprints" or better known as "buttprints in the sand" by Sam Glen:
One night I had a wondrous dream.
One set of footprints there was seen,
the footprints of my precious Lord,
but mine were not along the shore.
But then some stranger prints appeared
and I asked the Lord, "What have we here?
Those prints are large and round and neat,
but, Lord, they are too large for feet."
"My child," he said in sober tones,
"For miles I carried you alone.
I challenged you to walk in faith,
but you refused and made me wait."
"You disobeyed, you would not grow.
The walk of faith you would not know.
So I got tired, I got fed up,
and there I dropped you on your butt."
"Because in life there comes a time
when one must fight and one must climb,
when one must rise and take a stand
or leave their butt prints in the sand.

Bought some more furniture at Ikea before returning the van. Was a little late for church coz I took too long shopping. Haha...
To be honest, I don't really like the food from Shanghai Dumpling. First, it has weird names on the menus (some twats peeled some letters off to make weird names out of ordinary ones). Second, the curry chicken rice tastes funny. It makes me want to laugh. Do you know why cannibals don't eat clowns? Because they taste funny.
The new Cosmopolitan magazine has this section called 'How To Deal With Your Boyfriend's Mates'. It's enough that the women magazines teach innocent, young adolescents 'How To Tell If He's Lying' but now, they are teaching young girls how to handle guys who they are not even related to. I'm innocent. I just like having fun, but other than that, I'm cool. Ok, I might be guilty for being single, but hey, at least I don't try getting under your pants. Leave me alone. Man, that's really the whole difference between men and women magazines. Coz we men mind our own businesses. Like GQ talks about lifestyle and fashion and about getting ahead in business, not about 'How To Deal With Her Menopause', although I'll like to read anything that teaches me 'How To Deal With Her PMS'. That would be really helpful.
GB tonight was good, coz we were in server 1 and up against pure noobs. This pair of sisters. Haha. I got 900 gold from one round alone without any money-making gears. This shows you how bad those noobs really are. Never seen a Turtle's backshot or SS before. Pfftttt..... And one of the sisters left the game coz the other sister didn't praise her for making a nice shot. Cheesy.
Saturday, November-6-2004, 3:03 AM
I will attempt to sleep early today coz I think I injured my spine real bad. Haha. I know Abby told me not to, but I did it anyway. Crap. Now she's gonna call me dumb again. But she seemed a little impatient nowadays everytime I called her over for teraphy. Hmm. Must be because of Adrian. Fine man. Haha...
So it was scheduled for Monday, but then Wen can't make it then, and I sort of got the impression that he wanted to do it now, so I pushed the thing forward. I've gathered a few people who could make it on Monday, but none could make it then, so in the end, everything was called off. Crap! And CJ was there already. Ah. Stuff it. So I went to Budjet anyway to rent the van and did all the shifting by ourselves. So CJ and his housemate hepled clear his own home. We got to Ikea just before they close to get some stuff. But they still have to stock up on the items that I want, so I'll have to go back again tomorrow. I haven't had lunch, so while I was getting Nandos, Julian showed up. Ah. I forgot all about him. But he did help get some of the boxes over. The heavy ones. At the end of the day, all the big suckers were there. The rest can be transported by hand. And I got a gash on my finger after taking a knock on the edge of the table. But what's worse was my spine. It would have been. Coz I felt my muscles and it didn't hurt. I felt sharp pain when I'm twisting my back. Must be that T12 thing that Abby had been talking about. It's pretty bad, coz after taking a nap, I can't walk or stand properly :'( I nearly died just trying to get out of bed. Sianz. All these things keep happening to me these days.
This was one conversation I observed the other day during GB:
Jessie: Julieeeeee
Julie: Jesssiiieeeee
Jessie: Julieeee
Julie: Jesssiieeeee
................-_-? How gay was that? Man. Girls are just so hard to understand sometimes. I mean, calling each others' names over and over again. What are they trying to achieve by doing that? It's like some secret language that may contain some hidden codes. When I was young, everytime my dog barked and I tried to pretend I understood what it was saying by barking back. I was trying to decipher the message it was trying to tell me. And I remember crying when my mum said I will never be able to do that. That's what I felt like when I found out that Kermit the frog is just a puppet. Anyway, it's gunbound.net, not matchmaker.com. Take your expressions of affection somewhere else. And we also met a guy who's like a shadow of the brothers. He's kinda sissy, coz he was saying he loved this girl who was his teammate, but yet, kept shooting her. Some way of showing love. Just like us. This world is full of freaks.
My place looks so empty yet so messy. I'm listening to No Greater Love by Kaleidoscope. Or was that the name of the album. Whatever. But it's so sentimental it's like a song from a girl's fairytale. Why would anyone introduce this song to me. You obviously still have a lot to learn, Din.
~Tomorrow.....all my troubles seem so far away....~
Friday, November-5-2004, 2:33 AM
Heh. I so not get the fuss about birthdays. What's the point? You just edge close to your death. Dun gimme that crap about a day to remember or doing something special. Someone back in ancient times must have started it. Long ago in China. There lived an old lady with nothing to do, so she went out to give away her vegetables coz obviously, she can't eat all of those that she planted. And this person received his share on his birthday. Fearing that good karma will not endown on him of he had not returned the favour, he too gave gifts to his friends on their birthdays. You know that Chinese mentality? If someone does something for you and you don't do something in return, people will start talking behind your back. That must be what it was like then. Thus, that started a chain reaction and we new age children have to bear the consequences of our ancestors' doing. Then, there are people who wants others to do something to them. YX's one crazy kid. He was practically asking for it. I was at HM's birthday party like 2 months ago. Parties nowadays just aren't as fun as they used to be. No pass the parcel, pin the tail to the pony, spin the bottle or hopscotch. Also, the food was supposed to be Asian or something, but I didn't recognise any of it. Dan, the guy who runs our local Fish n Chip place is Asian, and I eat his food heaps, so I know all about Asian food. But there isn't any Dim Sims or even Chiko Rolls. I asked Peili, the chef, if she knew Dan, but she said she didn't. I guess that's fair enough, though, coz Asia is a pretty big country.
BORING. CS is getting boring. There are the good times and the bad ones. I don't like being a CT in dust coz it's gay. But they stuck to that map so I sucked the whole round. And what losers. I had 4 life left, hiding behind a box and all of them were like vultures trying to shoot through the box. Had this lucky shot where I just shot through the wall in the hostage room in italy and killed Ben. Lucky shot though.
I kept being reminded that Man U lost 2-0 to Portsmouth. Ha. Yakubu, Unsworth are the true justice makers. What can I say? $15M for Reyes who took so many kicks and was still standing. $30M for Rooney who tripped when no one even touched him. And he just have to choose to do it in the penalty box. So we can see the true worth/value assessment by Wenger and Ferguson. Kate's English accent sounded sexy. I can't hear a thing Ferguson is saying. He talks a bit like Kur. No one can hear or understand him. And wouldn't a pizza be worth eating more than being thrown? Why would Ferguson want to throw it? Life is not meant to be understood. Neither is Ferguson. That's why he needed a pacemaker fitted to his heart, just to remind himself that he's still alive so he can crap even more.
6:13AM @ 6/11
If you guys are wondering if I'm up so early, you're wrong. I'm up till now. Of all things, playing GB. Didn't get to see Kate today. Wo woo....I miss her. Need to find some other form of amusement. Bumped into this loser who was all talk. I'm not sure how things started, but I knew him and Leslie got into this fight. And he keep complaining about getting decent teammates and decent bots. What excuses man. If you can't play, then just sit at home and play chess. It's just like golf. It is for people who are too fat to play tennis. So if you can't kill someone with a grub, don't use it. Retard. That Jap wannabe should learn how to speak proper English. Just because he tied his hair up like a samurai doesn't mean he's one. Stop dreaming kid. You're probably too fat to be a samurai anyway. What a noob. Took like 7 shots at me and didn't even do past 200 dmg. What an ass. And he probably smell like a fat one too. Kids nowadays dun know the meaning of respect. He should go back to elementary school. And if I was the headmaster, I'll put him in detention just for the sake of it.
Thursday, November-4-2004, 3:44 AM
Today is the day. The day when I achieved emotional independence. The day when I had an enlightenment. I have never watched a movie such as this one and ended up having this sort of feeling. Been watching too many movies these days. But this one is by far the best of its kind that I've watched so far. I'm getting the DVD. As I mentioned, been watching too many movies. Being seeing Kate a lot lately too. Did I mention that I have a gf now? Got to spend time with her. Yep. I'm getting the DVD. Just for you Kate!
Eh.....maybe it seemed a little retarded, at least that's what I felt. But I had to model with the guns at the lower Knox this evening with a fraction of the multimedia crew. Jule's gonna edit them so that it'll appear as if we're all in the pic at the same time. Of course, who else can think of something as corny as this? But at least I know all my modelling experience doesn't go to waste. I turned down an offer from Channel Ten. They want me to go on Rove. As if I would. It's on past my bedtime. And people say Rove's a nasty pastie, and that if I went on his show he'd be mean to me. I don't trust Channel Ten, anyway. I trust Packer and Stokes, but who knows what goes on at that network? They're even letting gay homosexuals kiss on "Neighbours", now. I remember when that show was decent, but it totally jumped the shark when Bouncer died. Now Channel Nine, there is a network I'll appear on. "60 Minutes", "A Current Affair", "Mornings With Kerri-Anne"...
So the ALP think they can beat "Medicare Plus" with "Medicare Gold". Labor's plan is lame anyway. Like, what's the point in giving free health care to old people? They're just going to die anyway, and dead people don't vote. It'd be better to give free health care to rich, young people. 'Cause rich people actually pay taxes, so tax money should be spent on them. Poor people don't pay, so they shouldn't get anything back. That's fair, and Australia is an egalitarian country, after all. Plus like, if more poor people die, then Australia will be a richer country. Now THAT is an economic plan. I didn't do maths for 13 years for nothing you know?
Alright, like the guys are gonna play CS tonight. Things are starting to get a little out of hand. It's been either once every two days or everyday. I'm starting to get a little sick of it. Sick of having to hunt Kur down coz he won't stop camping and stab us from behind. How does he play soccer man? That's a red card offence. But he's a cool dude. He was snoring like a pig when we were at Yoga's place and we sprayed carpet foam deodorent on him and put some baby powder on his hair. He went to the toilet, but and didn't even find out that something's wrong with him. And he farted too and still had the face to smile about it. Like it's some sort of achievment. Man, the sound is getting lighter and lighter but the power of the bomb is getting stronger and stronger. It was audio-ly undetectable. He must have spent hours just practicing on letting the gas out and filtering the sound. There's no way you can do that without the practice. I guess he didn't choose to be reading a newpaper on a toilet seat for the pic in HM's birthday gift for nothing. He's comfortable in that position. How else do you explain him only sleeping 2 hours a day when he's not doing anything? The smell must have kept him awake.
I had no idea why I did it, but I did. Got the R34 model from HP at the expense of that Panasonic phone I liked. But it's a fair trade. Not that anyone would call me. And I don't think anyone ever will if Mike's the one handling my line. He told me it's gonna take 2 working days, but how long is 2 working days if he's not even working? Officially a member of APENGKZ (anak2 pengganguran [read: nothing to do kids]). Yeah, so you guys out there can stare daggers at us like we care. Having nothing to do is actually doing something. Wait a minute. I have a feeling I've heard this phrase before. Well Jule, if you still interested in the copyright release? Man, Abby keeps saying I'm contradictind myself. She even called me an idiot. C'mon. It's a paradox. U'know, like calling someone something and not actually meaning it. Like calling Mike, "cute". Or calling Kate "chubby". Or......... I am an idiot.
Ha. Kerry lost. Good for you man. I believe those who voted for Bush were mostly Christians. And also those who don't like Iraq and the terrorists. According to the reports that is. Who won't want to see a war? You get to see Enemy At The Gates and Saving Private Ryan on free TV. Sure, Kerry got this lame campaigne for re-drawing troops from Iraq. What happens when you give a rat a slice of cheese? It'll ask for the milk. Yeah, right. Being an ally with the Iraqis. I mean, WHAT was he thinking? You let a bunch of lunatics with bombs strapped to their bodies go lose, you better get ready to appear on Jerry Springer. Coz then, a whole lot of Americans will wanna beat you up. I think the people in Australia and those in the US of A who held rallies against Bush and Howard are probably pimple-faced college kids who had nothing better to do. Those lives who were affected by 9-11 would definitely be backing anyone agaisnt Iraq. Those who aren't don't know the pain of life yet. If everyone's against the war, why did Bush still win? It just comes to show that the people who actually voted are smart enough to believe Kerry just isn't cut out to be President. George W Bush looks like George Bush. He's clearly president material. Who does Kerry look like? He doesn't have that persident look. So Bush went, "We'll invade Iraq". Kerry probably goes, "No, pull back the troops". And Bush went, "Nah, I'm just gonna leave them there, you hippy". And people come to realise that Bush rules and Kerry drools. Politics is just so stupid. You hear them argue in the Parliaments all day. Those in Taiwan even go as far as having their own Jerry Springer during the debates. I forgot how boring politics can sometimes be. You only get to speak once every so often. Most of the time, Bush is probably playing snake on his mobile, drawing biro tattoos on his arm or whatever. But an hour of debate with no ad breaks? Yawn. The debate must be so crap coz they had this panel of journalists asking you questions. It's such a hassle coz it meant that you had to twist things around to what you wanted to talk about all the time.
Wednesday, November-3-2004, 3:41 AM
Got the TV stand. Was browsing around Target to find a beside table and a display cabinet when I bumped into AP. He's got 2 rooms for rent, and I was reminded of Jule. I tried giving her a call. If only people will pick up their phones. Or at least switch it on. Then again, I have this weird feeling that she might have changed her number. Strange. Oh well. Not my fault. I tried.
They dun have any new toys at Hobby Japan. Wanted to assemble something over the holidays. Maybe it's a good thing. Maybe God doesn't want me to waste that money. Yeah. And I'll probably bore myself to death as well.
Mike dumped a whole rubbish bin of guns at my place. How convenient. Now my room looks like a weapons armory. Which looks pretty cool by the way. If I can somehow build a little rack like those you see in the SWAT movies. How cool will that be? I know! I'll get a R34 model from Hobby Place tomorrow.
Kinda looking forward to moving into my new place. Adds to the excitement of rearranging and refurnishing. Makes life a little richer. Time is flying past me like a silent express train. Soon, I will be old. But still as good looking.
And I also don't get it why people get so hooked with the whole Idol thing. One of the judges said it's not just a singing competition. Who are you kidding? It is? What else do they do on stage? It's not like they try to suck wasabi up their nose. C'mon. What's there to idolise about singers? They're just like this walking music box that do nothing but make noise. And you don't have to be good looking to have a nice voice. But that itself destroys the whole notion of an idol. To me, an idol is someone who's good looking and cute and charming and cute. Someone that'll make your knees go weak when you see him/her. Someone who gives you inspiration and motivation when you see him/her. That's why when I'm stressed, I like to look into the mirror. On top of that, an idol is someone you admire for skills, looks, style...etc. Someone to set an example. Someone who has the ability to change the outcome and make the opposition pee in their pants:
90 min: England 1-0 France
91 min: England 1-1 France : Zidane scores from a free kick
93 min: England 1-2 France : Zidane scores from a penalty
That has got to be the most powerful moment in the whole Euro tournament. Not the Rooney goals, not Baros, not C. Ronaldo. The whole tournament's Zidane's glory. Those who don't know him, shame on them then. Did you know he can sing? He sang Live For Love United during the WC2002. Well, at least that's what the MTV showed. He should be on Idol. Emm....I have a feeling I'm not making sense....
Watched Underworld. Since when did Vampires started using guns? And I thought Abominations were supposed to be pink, has 2 heads and veins all over the body. The part where Victor's head just slided off when Kate slashed him with the sword is so cool. I can feel the Vampiric Aura. Maybe gonna watch Van Helsing tomorrow.
Tuesday, November-2-2004, 3:03 AM
Aww. Was supposed to go to uni to check out some stuff. But the brothers called for lunch. Wen and Ben were late, and while we saw them from where we're sitting, we pretended not to see them. But we saw them looking towards our direction. We're pretty sure they saw us, but they pretended that they din see us as well and continue to 'wait'. Wanted to pull a prank on them. All of us scrammed so the next time they look back, we're gone. We ran around the block so we can approach them from the other side, but when we got there, they're gone as well. Haha. They're not as dumb as they know I think they are.
But while I was there, I saw this cool phone set at Dicksmith. It's pretty cheap, so I think I might get it. As long as Mike remembers to connect my line for me. Had lunch at Bar and Bistro. I'm starting to get sick of that place. It's too oily. But the atmosphere is nice. Yog wanted me to have a look at his project and give him some feedback. It's going ok, I think. Well, there will always be some conflict with ideas. I'll do some things in a certain way, and obviously, he has his own thoughts as well. But yeah, it was going alright. It's gonna be due tomorrow. And Mike's got an exam on Thursday. So after Thursday, we can all be apeng (anak2 pengangguran). The guys came over to Yog's place later and we just chilled out there till dinner. Some played cards, I wanted to do some studying, JiEun came over to use Yog's camera, Kur was watching H&K, and Yog was finishing up his own project. Kur kept on insisting we play board games. Man, why board games? They're boring. That's why they call it 'bored' games. We also watched Simpsons, Everybody Loves Raymond and OC. We din finish OC though, coz we had to leave for dinner. But on the way, everybody said they were not hungry, so we went to play CS instead.
It was a crazy game. Kur just had to pick some weird map. We ended up playing mansion and dust. The usual.
The Indos always seem to roll their tongues when they pronounce 'r'. I was just wondering what a song would sound like if you overdo it.
Kekasihkurrrrrr terrrrsenyumlah
Bawakurrrrr the duniamu
That's it, there's no way Kur is coming into my world. Disgusting. Erorrr bangat.
They also have this giant poster of Britney and her new Curiousity perfume. I was wondering if I can have that poster after they're done with it. But I'm gonna bring my camera there tomorrow. And it will be 16 C tomorrow and raining. 16 deg!!! On a November. Welcome to Spring in Melbourne.
Feeling relatively better. Abby's useful once in a while. Haha. My back still hurts. But I think I will be fine coming Saturday. Gonna play against Kur's team. He said it's stronger than Spirit. Hope so. Have to start collecting people.
Monday, November-1-2004, 12:42 AM
It's so miserable when you're not feeling well. I think I may have sustained some sort of injury to my T12. Abby said I had this !@#$$%^&. I can't pronounce it, I can't spell it and I don't know what it is. But from the sound of it, it ain't good. She told me to rest for 3-4 days. Damn. And she even scolded me for being so dumb. Double damn.
Got my electricity at my new place settled. Mike's trying to draw me into his ACN service. I don't mind doing it for a friend. He just needs 20 to get that bonus. But seriously, the plan is pretty crap. Haha. No offence dude, but it really is. Well, not like I'm going to use it during the summer. When I come back, if there're better plans, I might stick with it. Otherwise, I might switch over to my original provider. And he came up with this lame excuse of parents having kids with bfs and gfs and them calling each other 4-5 times a day and saving $10. Honestly, I don't know where those sums come from. Maybe it's from his brilliant investment scheme again, but I'm not a parent with screaming little people and getting jiggy with other little people their opposite gender, so to me, it probably doesn't work. Don't try to buy me over with that crap. But as I said, it's for you Mike. It's my line service, but it's not about me, it's about you. Better get that car ready.
Speaking of cars, bought 2 Fast 2 Furious DVD. Liked the first one better though. Other than the R34 that appeared for the first 5 mins of the movie, it's relatively slow. I mean, why a CT9A? They dun got no spoiler on that FD and the pink S2000 is just gay. What do you expect? A girl drives it. The bad guy looks like Rio Ferdinand. Should have bought Bad Boys or The Godfather instead.
Was supposed to go fishing tomorrow with Wen. But the forecast said it's gonna hail and rain and thunder, so Wen cancelled it. Oh well. Things are getting a bit fishy up there. Which means, I'm gonna have a hard time moving tomorrow too. Oh btw, they ran out of the TEAC tv when I went to JB Hi-Fi this evening. They say it's gonna take a week for them to get it ordered in. Man. Wine is a luxury we have. Cars are luxuries we have. Time is not.
And my landlord called and said I have to stay on till the end of November coz I din call back to confirm I will be moving out. I remember telling her one month before, as specified in the contract. I'm not obliged to stay on until she finds a new tenant. What in the world. How can women even run businesses? I am supposed to be bound by the contract, not by her mood swings.
It's that time of the year again. Got to suspend, end, sign new contracts. I can't find the contract for my mobile plan. It's gonna expire next year. And I can't find the maturity advice for my term deposit. Ahh. Everything's gone! So many things to take care of. And all my sister does is give excuses that she's got an exam to study for. Study? What's that? Man. The life of a good looking man is so hard. Still considering whether to sign a new contract with Calvin Klein or Ralph Lauren :P And I still have to call GTE. Sis got us a job at Crown. In the Casino. Haha. The guys can call me Black Jack Snoopy from now on. And Wen's got a new name for me too. Dude, I have so many nicknames I not even sure what my real name is anymore....
