A word or two

I really am not emo anymore! seriously, I think I have recovered and am ready to be myself again. For those in the dark, I recently broke up and was emo for a couple of days - not anymore I'm actually fine and am looking forward to shopping in Harrod's! They have a sale - according to Ashley..

But yea - I am ok, used to be emo but now am ok, oh funny thing is, I was sooooo darn emo yesterday night and all for a different reason. I was watching episode 52 of Family outing - the one where Chun Hee and Yejin leaves! OMG - soooo sad to see them leave the family. My heart just broke shattered and turn to microscopic pieces when they were watching the video... ah, so sad - the family would never be the same without them...

No more will there be Chunderella, being bossed around by stepmother Kim - and I agree that the best moment was when he washed the radish with soap... hahaahahahah No more will there be savage killer Yejin, how will the family continue to prepare the fish? Though on the bright side - the new family, Park Si Yeon, looks damn CHUN... I will continue watching Family Outing no matter what!!

Right, went off topic there... erm, firstly - many thanks to those who sent sms-es and those who offered some words of comfort, thanks a lot for those. I'll have to agree that being single again after over 2.5 years is going to take some time to get used to...

OK next - to those who bitched behind my back about what kind of bf I was to my ex, to those who still claim that I am emo after numerous times of me saying I'm not and to those who misjudged me or jumped to a conclusion about the kind of person I am... Go and F*ck yourself. Honestly, I don't appreciate what you're doing and I don't care if I don't ever see you again - so if you notice that I'm sort of avoiding you, then that's probably you... either that or I just really don't want to see you, lol (maybe face problem?)

To these people, I have one more thing to say and I read this off a sign when I was in Greece, laughed my head off just reading it - I really should have bought that sign... hahaha

OK, so.. to you people...
"May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your crotch and may your arms be too short to scratch it..."

Haha, seriously lame...

The heat wave

London has reached Bangkok's level of heat and according to BBC - in one case, 4 dogs died in a car... the cause? They were boiled alive... OMG If it were to happen in Vietnam then it's dinner done for the family but here, nope. I pity the owners but yea I pity the dogs even more. Sad way to die.

Lucky for me I have a stand fan working almost all the time I'm in the room, to my room seems to be doing just fine. I really don't dare to go out and play in the sun cos seriously - it's freaking hot right now and the only place I can find some relief would be the shopping malls (hence the Westfield visit and the purchasing of the soon to be cooked Ostrich egg).

I know I mentioned earlier that I won't talk about the Wimbledon trip but I feel like I should do otherwise - I mean it's currently on going and I should say something about it...

It all started off with an amazingly early trip with the tube to Wimbledon, which upon arrival - we got off and headed off to a large field to line up to get tickets (you'd get a ticket with a number). The number I got was 7787 - which meant about 7786 people would go in before I did. We were there from about 8.45am... we reached the end of the line at about 12.45pm. So yea, a long wait - and a lot of time wasting. You would think that I would then have entered the arena and started watching tennis...

Wrong... being Malaysians, there must be at least ONE person late - and because of that he got a larger number. Lehong got 82 something something. 500 places behind... OMG -_-;; Being the one least interested in tennis, I opted to stay behind to wait with him - we had emo talks for about 2 hours before finally one of the stewards let us in. God bless him! He was such a nice old man, may he have a long and prosperous life ahead :)

Finally, we got in and then began our Wimbledon journey...

The time that we got in - it's a Rolex, the official sponsor for time keeping for Wimbledon 09

Check out his butt posture, it's so interesting to see them serve... this was our first match, a pretty close one - and from where we were seating, we could see how fast the balls were travelling...

The seating here was pretty chilled out - with people just relaxing on the lawn, enjoying the game...

This was the first court that we were on... Delgado and Marray won in the end... But the real highlight of the game was this...

The ball picker... :)

We... stayed until the end of the game of course... we really enjoyed this game here... the first - the best

We had pizzas for lunch afterwards... and then - Beer! nothing else beats it in such a hot weather...

And then proceeded to do some solo shots... introducing - the Group!

Lehong...

Kwok Wei

Khai Ven

Ice Shaun...

Next match - ladies are up...

The serve...

The return...

The smile...

The end...

Overall - it was fun to get out of the house, fun outing... Thanks KV for the invite. Btw, there were 3 other people in the outing (michelle, eevien, changjin) but they went off and did their own thing...

Lastly, here's the pic that defines the trip for us... The Wimbledon Pose...

KV with the forehand...
Ice with the backhand...
Kwok with the slice...

When you're bored...

...and when the weather reached an extreme heat of 31 degrees Celsius, you definitely will go to a shopping mall. In this case, we were off to Westfield. It's no where near 1 Utama back at home but it's better than nothing and like all shopping mall - there's air con!!

most of the time spent there were on window shopping, I personally didn't have anything to buy there, until we went to Waitrose that is. It's a super cool big supermarket that sells authentic stuff as well. And guess what? We got an Ostrich Egg! hahaha - big ass egg that is equivalent to 24 large hen eggs. I got lehong to stand on the egg and we did it right in the shopping mall! Lucky it didn't break (if it did, it would be all over the carpet that we were standing on).

Anyway, we plan to drill a hole, get the egg out and make several egg dishes with it. Now I'm googling around to see what egg dishes we should be cooking - I'm thinking scrambled eggs with omelette with steamed eggs and probably egg fried rice. hahahaha, we're going to be sooo sick of eggs later on.

I also got some Innocence drinks (cos I'm soo innocent) cos it was really cheap there, wanted to try a new flavour... so I went all out to get this one...

Looks like a weird combination at first, this drinks actually taste pretty good. For those who can't seem to get their hands on this wonderfully healthy drink, you might want to try mixing...

Taken from here.

it works cos they added no preservative or flavoring, so if you get the ratio right - it'll probably taste the same.. :P

On that day, I felt like drinking (alcohol) for some reason, for simplicity I'll just blame it on the hot weather... I ended up the day drinking from Westfield all the way to Rosebery... 4 whole bottles of...

Got a little high at the last bottle - ended up making everyone lose in a board game that we were playing. I seem to be playing board games lately (no not the lame monopoly one), I think it's a good way to get my mind of things... but that by no means show that I'm good at it, I seem to have a good consistency of achieving last place in most of the games that I play... hahaha - probably was not meant to be good at it :P

This seems to be like a drink post, with different kinds being featured here. Lol

PS - I won't blog about Greece or Wimbledon trips cos I think facebook has pretty much covered them already, suffice to say, those trips were pretty fun... with good company around me during that time. Thanks guys for the good times...

Let it all be immortalised in our memories and may we create more in the future...

Time freezes

Ok - so I tried to sleep.. thought I was tired enough to take a nap, suffice to say, I thought wrong. I'm up, I'm bored and I need do to something to get my mind of things... What am I to do? Sigh...

I'll start with making dinner... *blank*
haha - and I can see that the quality (whatever's left of it) of my writing seemed to have deteriorate to the point where I find it extremely hilarious for some reason.

Screw it - pasta tonight, then I'm out roaming the streets for London alone - now that the journey of over 2 and a half years have ended, maybe loneliness is what I deserve/need.

- I really do hope I stop writing short random posts...
- I need to pack my room
- Why is it that the weather is so hot only upto the point where I set up my Stand Fan in my room? Life is cruel sometimes...

ShineDown - Second Chance

Really like this song at the moment... it's been on repeat since forever...



Sometimes Goodbye is a Second Chance...
What if the whole world thinks ill of you...

I didn't know what to do - so I was depressed and anxiety swallowed me...

Tired and drained, it finally took a kid's play to answer my question...

"It doesn't matter what others think of me, as long as the Spirit of the Lord is with me"

God sometimes answers the most complicated questions with the simplest of answers...

As I sit here, embracing the temporary loneliness, the same question creeps up again...

and I answer back with a question... So What?

with a slight smile, I leaned back and rested - finally a moment of peace after days of confusion...

Thank You...

Transformers 2 (Spoiler Ahead)

The next movie was Transformers 2 : Revenge of the Fallen... on the IMAX! managed to get tickets to watch it on the bigger screen...

Ok - so where do I start? Let's be nice and start of with the plot... Same as before... The Decepticons still want to find another source of energy for their survival but now it is revealed that their under the rule of a Prime called The Fallen. Apparently the Primes are a decesdants of a race of superior robots and the last 'remaining' Prime is of course Optimus. Decepticons tries to get the new source of energy but then the Autobots stop them and peace is achieved again - temporarily. Of course, in the midst of that - Optimus dies while fighting 3 other Decepticons then gets revived to take out The Fallen. Done.

This movie attempts desperately to please the die-hard fans of Transformers by showing more robots fighting than the previous movie. So much so that it look extremely fake - possibly like a scene of Terminator : Salvation? I don't know - will compare it when I do watch the Terminator movie. Also, it is so disgustingly obvious that the movie is trying to show the superiority of Optimus Prime and the US Military. I mean seriously, I actually thought Optimus and Megatron was as good, or OK - Optimus might be slightly better. But taking on Megatron, Star Scream and some unknown Decepticon all at once? That's just too much. Yea he got killed - but's that's after he tore off Star Screams arm and completely ripped apart the unknown Decepticon's head. Sad. Plus - after his revival, he completely annihilated The Fallen who supposedly is a Prime as well with out even getting a scratch on him.

Here are some battle statistics, in the whole movie the Decepticons probably had over 30 and the Autobots may have just about 10... All the Decepticons dies - except for Megatron and Star Scream but the Autobots have zero casualty? Are the Decepticons bloody made out of plastic?

US military scores a millions points in this movie - most significant achievement being taking down 13 Decepticons in one battle. I mean I thought these were alien technologies that existed long before mankind even developed fire? And they get taken down by a bazooka? Sigh... Best part? The giant Decepticon made out of 5/6 freaking big vehicles, it's so big that Optimus probably is only as big as its arm. So it climbs up the pyramids to suck some stone out and gets taken down by who? The US military... did they use all their ammunitions? Nope - just one shot... ONE BLOODY SHOT from a rail gun... and the big metal beast falls to its doom...

All in all, this movie is obviously trying to please the die-hard fans of Transformers who had been following the old cartoon series up to now... The plot? sucks, The enemies are made of plastic and Optimus looks like Rambo or the Scorpion King who can take out an entire army if he has to. Watch it only if you're a die-hard fan, you're an Optimus fan or you just like to see Megan Fox wearing a low cut top running for her dear life...

Best Part - Megan Fox's hot sizzling body on the BIG SCREEN...

The Hangover (Spoiler Ahead)

Let's start of proper blogging with some reviews - managed to catch 2 movies in one day, the first being... The Hangover

This one was a random decision - it was a choice between the hangover or Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. But with the help of the tomato-meter and a whopping score of 78% over Dan's movie of 38%, the obvious choice was The Hangover. But was it a mistake to choose this show?

Definitely not, from the start to end, this show managed to keep me wanting more. Unlike most slap stick comedy, this one actually has an interesting and unpredictable plot. Throw in a consistent flow of jokes (some pretty dirty) and you have a winner.

The movie is about a group of 4 guys leaving their homes to invade Las Vegas for a bachelor party. One of them (Doug I think), is getting married soon and so begins their night of sinful pleasure... The next day, 3 of them wake up from their hangovers and finds out that their friend Doug is missing. Searching high and low with absolutely no clue to what happened the night before, they try their best to find their friend and get him to his wedding - that's happening the next day.

Funny Dirty Stupid and yet in the weirdest of way, Makes full sense. Watch it if you're overly stressed in life and want to watch something funny but at the same time better than the likes of 'Dude, where's my care'.

Best Part : When they made the little baby jerk off... Hahaa - the baby's face... Priceless..
