Ah, the familiar "New Post" page with a piano tune to accompany me as I write, how good to see you again, and hello, once again, my readers. It's been a long time, since I updated, huh? It's a pleasure for me to continue my life's chronicles in the form of these digitized alphabets. To be honest, that's not the main point, the main point being that...I have nothing to do and I can't sleep for some enigmatic reason, well to be honest it's because I'm feeling lonely and there's no one to talk to at this hour. I'm gonna skip all my usual wordplay and just type like my normal self for this one, hope you guys don't mind.
My life so far has been fun of ups and downs, and time sure flies, right? 2 more months till I face the music of SPM. Back to the subject at hand, yeah, I've been having an inconsistent life. Let's just summarize it from the top. I broke up with my first ever girlfriend because she didn't really appreciate me, from there, I lived more freely, free from her clutches. Then Ritchie introduced me to a girl which of course as usual, failed. Then I tried to become more well-acquainted with another girl, which yes, you've guessed it, failed. Then from my sorrowful clouds came a silver lining, someone very dear to me, finally accepted my offer to be in a relationship with her, after a month, she broke up with me and of course left me in shattered pieces.
From there, friends came to my aid, Ritchie, Nathalie, Nizam, Teck Hui all came to comfort me in their own, special unique way. I owe them the greatest of debts, thank you guys, I really appreciate that. It took almost 2 months to fully recover, and in the midst of my lamenting I was pushed to the edge with Public Speaking practice which I had to go to. Then, after reuniting with an old friend, Trester, meeting a few new ones and befriended the St. Marians, I slowly got back on my feet, because of all of you, I've become a more improved individual and cleaned up my act and also forget about my past anguish. It is safe to say that all of you are the best friends I could ever have. Thank you, Trester, Amirul, Anis, Adlinur, Josey and of course Su Ann. The Pesta Ria the St. Marians held was definitely the icing on top. And yes, Su Ann, I still love that Rojak.
The names mentioned above didn't just help me, each of them taught me something, Trester taught me that I should be patient, and have a little faith in both people and God. Amirul taught me that if you love someone, stay true to that feeling, patience is the key to a woman's heart. Anis taught me that love will find it's way no matter what, and she made my fandom towards Paramore THAT much more serious. Adlinur made me realize that guys like me are extinct (In a good way) and that girls aren't all that superficial. Josey AKA Jocelyn taught me the ways of taking it easy through the music of Jason Mraz, and she was responsible for me to meet the next person. Su Ann taught me the greatest of all lessons, that we can not give up, no matter what and that we should always perform our best at anything, she also got me into reading the wonderful works written by Cecelia Ahern and reignited my passion for a certain yellow sponge living under the sea. Thank you again to all of you, I love each and everyone of you to bits!
And of course there was my fun time with Amin and Ronald at the robotics competition, even though we lost, we still had fun, especially chanting Chong Hwa's name for beating the arrogant St. John's robotics squad. CHONG HWA! CHONG HWA!
Oh, also, today I went Ice Skating again with Yen Yi with her boyfriend and 2 others, really had a fun time with you guys, especially causing havoc in MPH. And Casualtiy report: My limbs...HURT. A fraction of the skin on my left foot tore itself apart. But thank goodness I was improving and didn't lose my skill.
Speaking of skill, my dearest Piano teacher let me advance to grade 2! Finally, no more cartoon doodles in my books, and I'm that much closer to perfection! Gotta give it my all, right, Su Ann?
By the way, my sweet CPU just got an UPGRADE a month back, thanks to Ritchie for laying the final blow on my Graphics Card, now I have a much more better PC! So now I can finally play all those PC games that I always wanted to play.
Hmm...it's 3:14, I guess I better stop here.
Adios amigos~

Fang Dies? Has Patterson gone MAD?!
I haven't been posting, so.....
____________________________________________________________________
Ok, as you can see from the official cover of Maximum Ride Book 6....Fang dies. And no, the "Angel is never wrong" part isn't an exaggeration. She has (apparently....) the ability to see into the future now. Yeah, rant now, Alice Cullen fans, that includes you Ritchie. Well I also saw the preview for it when I went to KLCC's Kinokuniya to get myself a reference book to draw better, so I got the BlazBlue Material Collection (since I also got the PS3 game) which whiplashed RM 151.20 ( 50.40 USD) outta my parents' wallets. But well, it's worth it.
Now, anyways, the preview says that Fang is actually the Alpha Male of the flock (gee, stating teh obvious are we, Mr. Patterson?). So Max oh-so "neeeeeeeeds" him. Oh yeah, their also a dysfunctional teenage couple to boot. So the Flock (which is basically a gang of 5 mutant Avian-Human hybrid freaks and a Flying dog) meets a rich scientist, this scientist apparently succeeded in making the perfect Avian-Human Hybrid named Dylan. Dylan is to replace Fang...... but honsetly, James Patterson destroying his fanbase AGAIN? (which he did with the shitty 4th and 5th books which were just sick excuses to promote environmental awareness) I digress.
Also if you're wondering... BlazBlue is a 2D fighting game, I'm a sucker to awesome flashy fighting games, so yeah. =P Here's the Material Collection and Game cover:

Blisters, aches, thanksgiving and a movie.
Now, you might be wondering, why am I blogging this late at night. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell, I had a heck of a day today since I suck at planning.
So I was dragged to ice-skating, which lasted approx. 2 hours, with Yen Yi and her brother, since I had no one to talk to, I called Ritchie to come and save me, that nooblet's a savior I tell ya. He didn't know how to skate so I had to teach him, but I fell more times then him. So I just unintentionally pushed him down to the melted ice which resulted my left side to be completely wet and his back all watery. Also, since we were both wearing short socks, we've got blisters on the back of our feet now, we also have body aches, especially our feet.....damn those skates..... that's all for damage report.
Then (which was 3PM by then) We (Me, Ritche and my parents) went to Mid Valley, my parents had their luch while me and him go do some games n' book hunting, so yeah, I found the games I wanted and we bought 2 books, I got myself Maximum Ride: Max's primary Brithish print (FINALLY IT'S HERE!!), and we shared money to get the mini (and cheaper) edition of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed novel.
The novels:


And after all that shabang was over, it's 5PM, Ritchie came over to play Resident Evil 5 as usual, though this time I didn't join the fight since I was tired and slept. I don't wanna hinder him 'cuz my accuracy will drastically decreased if my stamina's low. So he woke me up at 6:30PM, which was when we're supposed to go fro some Thanksgiving Dinner Roland's Christian community is hosting.
So we went there just in time for dinner (Ritchie invited his friend; Susanna, and she invited 2 of her friends), and ate some awesome food and let the whole thing start. Now.... the whole thing....was in Cantonese... I. DON'T. UNDERSTAND. CANTONESE. So Ritchie suggested that we should apologize to Ronald and get the heck out to catch a movie at the Jusco opposite the building we were in. So Susanna's friends left for home, and there was 3, I got a little more well-acquainted with the girl, I only know how she looks, she's from Maxwell as well, she's from Upper Form 6, but I didn't expect her to be a cool person.
Desperate, we bought tickets to the only show we were interested, which was Gamer. The show was at 10PM, so we just waited till showtime comes at the meantime we were having conversation after conversation. So time passed, had our laughs and fun and right before you know it, the movie starts.
what can I say? it's just....an epic movie. It stars Gerald Butler, if you don't know him, he played as King Leonidas in 300 (the guy who yelled THIS. IS. SPARTA!!).It's one of those movies which makes you ponder to yourself. This one (especially if you play A LOT of online games) will make you think.....what if your character in-game, was living in an alternate universe, having his/her own family, what if everything you kill in it has a life of it's own, has emotions. There is certainly nothing virtual about the reality in the movie. It's about this power-hungry game designer, he makes games that involve real humans. He replaces their brain cells with some nano-machines that allow other players to control them through their computers, only to find out this was all just a part of the bigger picture.
After the movie, we accompanied Susanna back home, since she was uhhh... "scared". And me and Ritchie made our way home. What can I say? it was one heck of a day. Well, you've been filled in.

Maximum Ride Manga
Wow, what I thought was a peice of crap wasn't after all. The Manga (Japanese comic) for Maximum Ride (by James Patterson) is actually not bad, sure the art is a little sloppy, it's Korean-drawn, by someone named NaRae Lee. BUT, it does stay true to it's novel's story. So yeah, I recommend it, along with the original novels.
Some samples:

The Mural's done!
Sorry for the absentness awhile from the blog, I was busy. Anyways, remember that mural I mentioned? It's done!^^ I couldn't have done it without the help of my friends and the CAIS guys, you guys rock! I'll post the picture as soon as I get my hands on it, so..... wait.^^
Now, for you action movie fanatics out there, I recommend a movie called Death Race, starring Jason Statham. It's a movie about this prison running an illegal broadcast called Death Race to get their oun income. The point of Death Race is to ask potential racer/gladiators among the inmates to race to the death, win 5 races, the inmate will be set free, lose...well.....you pretty much kick the bucket in the most painful way. With fast cars, big guns and hot babes, Im sure you guys will love it as much as I did.^^ MAN! I love that Mustang! BTW, this movie is the remake of the classic movie called Death Race 2000, but the storyline is totally different, they only retained the concept of the race and the character Frankenstein.
Book lovers! If your into Science Fiction/Fantasy books and already read the Harry Potter and Twilight series and dunno what to do....the you guys should get the Maximum Ride series. It's a 4-book series, it was recommended bt a friend of mine. The plot follows the adventures of Maximum Ride, frequently refered as Max, and her group of human-avian hybrids (known as the flock), who have been the subjects of experiments leaving them 98% human and 2% bird. The experiments were conducted at a facility known as "The School", located in Death Valley, California. The flock is constantly being hunted down by Erasers, human-lupine (wolf) hybrids, that were also created at the School. The Flock works towards protecting the world from domination by mysterious figures, who have also shown an interest in their capture. The overview might not be much exciting but you guys should get the books, it's worth it. It's written by a famous author named James Patterson. The books have also been made into a manga; Japanese comics and a movie that's due to be released in 2010.
Game fanatics, you guys should go to your nearest game stall, and grab a game called Clive Barker's Jericho. It's a horror-themed 1st person shooter for the PC, PS3 and 360, it's a great game with great graphics and low requirements for the PC. The story goes that before God made Adam and Eve, he made the Firstborn, a being that's not ugly and not beautiful, not dark and not light and it has no sex. But God went overboard and made the Firstborn to powerful, so he banished it to the Abyss know ans the Pyxis Prima, a slice of reality shaped like a box buried in the Lost city of Al-Khali in the middle-east. So, the Firstborn got pissed and wants to free itself from the Box, seducing someone with evil attentions with forbidden knowledge to free him in exchange for power, and each time a 7-man team is sent to stop the Firstborn. This cycle has been going on in the Sumerian Era, The Roman Era, The Crusader's Era and the WWII Era. Now in the present time, The Firstborn is trying to escape again, seducing a evil man named Arnold Leach, so the US army send the specialized team of people with knowledge of the arcane arts called the Jericho to stop the Firstborn and Leach. The gameplay is basically tactical FPS style, the story is written by Clive Barker, of course. So you guys should get this game, it's really really good, TRUST me.
Well, that's all for now I guess, see ya!
