6(sic)6. Who's the MAN?

[Exclusive mid semester issue post+(very outdated posting+edits)=end semester already]
Edits(in white) had been done to correct some technical glitch in the writing.

Personal/Ideals
--It's a matter of days to go and I'll be gunning down people back in Penang, the island.

"the existence of life is a highly overrated phenomenon."
"Born from oblivion; bear children, hell-bound as ourselves, go into oblivion. There is nothing else. Existence is random."
These are quotes(googled) from the movie Watchmen. Definitely a must-feel movie. Philosophical and thrilling perspectives and principles. That's what I long for to experience in my brain. And those quotes just fill up certain uncertain bridges of countless questions and conceptions. At least for me, I have my own interpretation and belief in them. And some things just got more intriquing. That's interesting.

Feel yours today, go watch it.heh. I thought at first the poster looked like some kind of costumed make-up superheroes movie or spoof show. 10 minutes into the movie I proved myself wrong and I changed my mode from just-attending to movie-experiencing, the "watchman" way. Maybe a handful or not would brand/rate/comment this movie as ridiculous and a waste of time...some friends they just weren't enjoying the movie fully. Hopefully they don't represent the majority. Nevermind..different tastes anyway. But I admit it's lengthy and dragging with great philosophical talks. Even then, I've went to watch in the cinemas twice already.

I would like to write up a post on the movie and story but only if I have enough to brainspill someday so..we'll see. So far, no-go.

Into the first 6 months of the year. Is it that time flies quickly? Or passing too slowly. Nope, it's quite good. Everything's progressing finely. Step by step one by one piece by piece and reasons and lessons in life are picked up. Good and bad they exist for sure for the consummation of life. Happy and sad all be conquered gracefully. phew..so far so good la to be precise.

The downside...I think I'm feeling that my language is deteriorating. For BM, it's already constant. For English, this is the problem. Because:
-I have been writing it less
-I have been speaking it less (also applies to listening, except music)
-I have been writing totally simple short notes for studies
-I have been reading not so proficient writing of notes and studies (not complaining..)
-I have been learning and improving my Mandarin and Thai hah
{note the kind of posts delivered were like out of tune :s}

It was before 2 months ago: ...weeks without internet. No downloads. No chattings. No blog-reading. No e-mailing. No research. But of course I'm not that unproductive. I did go to the library to do my homework... Now yeah, I have internet already.(obviously).

ok..time for a sidewinder's change..from now on I'm trying to change a little for my style of writing. Not applicable to Stress-talks(Stressm) and Ideals. It's especially for my personal accounts of story-telling and a-z detailed movement and percentage of alcohol consumed.

OK. Since the Label 5 scotch whisky, I had Shandy(1%),  Tequila - Camino(?%), Boeing 777(40%) and Scotch Whisky - ???(40%) at Sanctuary, The Curve.  
So...this(below) is one of the latest (but there's also Tuborg beer provided at the MDG Finale). Brought by a senior friend from his home. Rare and expensive.wth

Bacardi's Rum(40%).wth

I'm getting unhealthy. My body spells a downward spiral of fitness level with increasing unhealthy activities(gaming till sunrise), eating so oily/salty food and too little exercise.
This sums up my report of to-be fitness level:
Favourite Hiking -- Heavy breathing and weak climbing energy
100m sprint -- Spot the last position
K.Kinabalu Hike -- Hell would be cooler~plan postponed
Badminton..I won none matches this year, played only once anyway.. ya noe ever since moved outside to rented house.

Advice: Try best not to poison yourself. Intoxication by either nicotine, alcohol or party drugs only stir up your senses and cause a complication in body functions. That is why Islam forbids those. Intoxication ruins the nervous functions. The root of our life and body is in the brain, the mind. Bersyukurlah dengan badan yang sihat. Tahu cakap kena tahu buat la...

Beat it. Left 4 Dead
I'm Rock. Ye-Wheen being Mother. And unfortunately...the deceased by the end of the game as being controlled by Hooi. Cool cracky game with moaning witches.

So now who is the man?

[HooiTheMan?]

[The path to enlightenment?]

[Island CM?..respect..]

I AM THE MAN...huahahaha

Was Genting Highlands. This time I tried the roller coasters but missed out on the balls-beating Spaceshot...to heavy rain. I swear! Corkscrew screws cocks. At least I am level with my mum's experience now, she played before roller coaster in Ocean Park, Hong Kong decades ago. I can tell you..all my virtual experiences of freefalling in my dreams/nightmares came true. Imagination just got to a higher level in me. Negative G-Force had me throwing a choking voice during the gradient down aaaaah.a.a.aa.aaa.aahh

[..my new home workplace]
-I travel between two states everyday to school and back. 10 mins apart. Selangor and N.Sembilan. Actually I've written this before..but I add this time a little twist of uniqueness for this special issue of post in tribute to the MAN. So it's complicated...go to school in one state and stay in another state. Current location: N. Sembilan/Selangor??

[..the ideal average income fast-lane home--this was months ago]
-It's my dining place. Also used as a common study place. And usually serious discussions take place here. It has become a zone for guitar playing too for everyone.

"There was a time...Broken glass and cigarettes, writing on the wall, it was a bargain for the summer and I thought I had it all..."~Guns N' Roses

Oh yeah another break of words induced by the procrastinating-Jared-"all talk, no cock" syndrome. Books. I've never got my hands laid on them...even my new stuffs..
Calling the help hotline now....tut.tut...tut.tut...
"Anyone who has any advices or suggestions of any styles for me on time and workload management please do write back to me through comments. My pre-priorities are eat, sleep, bathe, laundry and laying my hands on my guitar. Basically what I do from day till night for a normal day is wake up, go for class if any, lunch, dinner, do any homework if any then play around with housemates..I haven't even start doing some read-up and research. AND especially exercising!!!" knmclc..

I think I gotta follow suit my Thai friends who jogged from school to my house. It's around 8km with uphills and downhills in a middle of lush forests across the state border. Once a week should be a good deal. Wake up early wth.~mythBUSTED


*2*Tad-bits of bite for the season: No insultation here. Try for a change, friendly humans. Put a stop to branding yourselves as emo. I think this trend is somewhat distasteful, and I think a majority of us would have in common in our mind that these "emos" are modern post-Emo wannabe junkies. Even though there might be some (or no) non-comforming ideals in them but certain modern settlers today embraced the so-called cult and turned into some kind of culture in which people would describe themselves as "emotional" or sad and having a bad life. Trust me, what kind of bad life is that when things just don't go and happen they way you desired in life, that's life. Not that I experienced better, I knew of worse and physically-threatened situations.

And most of the time I don't even think you people are troubled, it has somewhat become a wannabe style.. Leave aside the emo cult which epitomises wrist-cutting and extreme eye-shadowing. Talk about plain-clothes emo. Forgive me friends and acquaintances, I'm merely reflecting a general and unbiased view on the current vision upon people who like to be emo so much. I know, there are sane and wonderful people would have gotten used to the word as an everyday casual term for the mood. There's nothing wrong. But in this context, you're being associated to the very unpleasant and annoying bunch of youths.

It's not like there's no other words to use...like sulking or "merajuk". Sad. Emotional. Depressed. Sick. PMS. Desperately in need of attention. There are especially associations with Lala(s) too, that's the sad truth. Portraying emo-ness in their ways, giving a new twist to their style. h3ll0 PpL, I'm EMO 4eVa.(tm)

And on another note regarding the showcasing of lala style. Please, try your best not to mimic the lala way of expression. It's detrimental. As jokingly it is said, "either you die a sane, or you live long enough to see yourself becoming a lala".*

Get the gun shoot it upright and wait for the bullet to land on the head. The brain will do just fine. Final exam starts in two days time until 12-June-09. And then you'll see me prancing like the horse in the Ferrari logo.

Oh yeah, thanks to MDGs2 Ming (my MDG hah) for taking photo with me after the show 2 weeks ago ...fux...

38. Saw Announcement + Jungle Oddities

Personal
Behold, Saw V.
I don't get to premiere it Yw or Hooi quickly get a copy by Christmas then we'll rock our balls at midnight..

Oh ya, gona catch the coming REAL soon movie, 007: Quantum of Solace. James Bond movies starting from Daniel Craig line are my favourites...more muscle-imploding action..not romance-hairy action =.=

Ahead:
*Information on my campus life*
*Boring grandpa story ahead*
*Nice for curious friends*
*Good for keeping in touch with my sanity, tell me if have become Tarzan then someone has to become Jane from the city

I found this, on a table in one of the classes. And days after that I found another drawing..

XD the term 'jungle' here is just a mere exaggeration. But it's widely accepted by all students here at my place that this place is jungle hah. It's actually just beside the highway leading to Nilai/Bangi interchange. But the fact that if you're on the highway and you want to come here you will need at least another journey of 45 minutes that makes this place "jungle". Plus, it's situated in an area surrounded with lush forests and hills with vast size of palm oil estates.

And yes, lots of roadkills(lots of types too) along the way... And at night with no lamp posts at all which forces the high light to be switched on, it's scary..why? Because you will come across a signboard in the pitch darkness which reads "Awas:Kanak-kanak melintas jalan".

It's at least 10 minutes from any convenient stores for food or entertainment. 15 minutes from UKM. 25 minutes from Kajang. 10 minutes from Inti Nilai. 13 minutes from Nilai College. 15 minutes from Nilai Giant store. At least 35 minutes of KTM to Midvalley. Another 15 minutes to KLCC. Around 1 hour and 45 minutes of KTM to Subang Jaya(Taylors la, Sunway etc). Next destination, Sungai Wang vicinity, Petaling Street and 1-Utama.

This is the model landscape of my campus. The part behind the buildings are supposed to be hills of lush estate of oil palm trees.

It's these quasar time and distances that make us "people from the jungle" haha.

What we normally do:
~Wake up and go to class(normal l0)
~After class, back to room to sleep either to rest for another class or for the whole day
~Use the spare time to play cards particularly chor tai tee
~Go to the bathroom and mandi beramai-ramai(in separate cubicles la)
~Do laundry also together(only if class schedule permits)
~Dine at the opposite seafood restaurant(ironic, seafood in jungle)
~Watch TV there until before curfew time(by 12am)-(this one is not my group culture)
~Play badminton from 11pm to 2am(played basketball(outdoor) too but accident occured so..)
~Enjoy instant noodles together at 3am
~Continue with card game
~Life discussion chatting until 6am
~Sleep the whole next day with only one complete meal(dinner)

I thought I have done this before..never mind, this is in extra detail haha

haah I slept at 7am the other day after calling back to home to wish my dad for his birthday. Some Muslims were already up for prayers. But parents haven't wake up because they took leaves from work. And I was told that Penang was given a day of holiday for some political aim. Funny. And I woke up at 4pm. Basically, this is a kind of culture in college/uni life huh.. either for entertainment or last minute brain inflating studies.

This was the culture in the past month, which is the bulan Ramadhan.. No sleep (or short naps only) until 4am. Ok down to the Student Centre for food. At less than RM5, we can shut the stomach's grumbling for the whole day. 5am, start sleeping. If got class, wake up at 8 or 8.30am. No class, then sleep till 5pm. This was how we coped with one particular copious amount of writing assignment....countless nights... 20 pages full..for only 4 pages of task. woohoo but plain fun. and midterm...serious brain wreckage.

The hangar.

Reasons to stay in hostel(nice advantages):
-fun community socialising
-close rapport among friends and classmates
-fun group studies in anyone's room
-(if my laptop can support great games..) connect with the whole block LAN and DoTA/CS !!!
-easy for group assignment discussion
-super close distance to library or classes
-can sleep until 5 minutes before class and never be caught late
-save big money for accomodation

Reasons not to stay in hostel:
-have to be hardworking and get chops(proofs of being active in campus activities) and compete with over 1000 people who would like to stay in the hostel the next semester
-boring same old food at the cafe-need to travel out to get "extra-ordinary" food
-if your neighbours are high-tech, then 5.1 sound system will accompany your group study
-if your neighbours are dirty, the corridor is gonna smell and be dirty
-if your neighbours are thiefs.....
-dirty toilets...especially the clogging of uncivilised maggi-mee disposal in the sinks
-smelly because most people do their businesses in "sleepy mode";bad accuracy
-all sorts of jungle lifeforms residing anywhere everywhere
-boring if there's nothing to do
-gotta respect the majority Muslims of alcohol/pork/food during puasa etc etc
-gotta bear with more lung cancer symptoms..

Top reasons to get out of hostel:
-the laundry room is constantly scourged by cat shit(DAMN SHIT!) everywhere
-smell is so so so so so shit
-INTI Nilai area life is better
-food there is so different(new to me, you won't find them in Penang
..but now I'm bored already)
-got CCs
-got Cs(but most of them got boyfriends d, sigh)
-hahaha

We should be moving out in the next semester...the house is only 10 minutes away.

The hostels from a distance.

hmm...know wat, long ago we had an meeting. It's a MIAT chinese community meeting haha. Seriously, you can count the number of chinese seniors studying here with 10 fingers..we alone(sem 1) make up already 10. So the fraternity actually grew larger. Cool people, especially in aviation field we get to befriend this kind of "I love aircrafts" people...most of them are from KL so it's interesting to hear about the life in KL...especially the clubs woohoo

ok la...30 more minutes I will have a shower and go for class at 8.30am in an hour time. I couldn't sleep. Got lots of stuffs running in my head and stomach's so full from the 4am meal. Hot sun rising already and thick fogs rising from the jungle.

~Sleeping at 7am is cool. Hear the morning bird chirpings as a lullaby to sleep and forget what's up for the day because you're gona wake up in the afternoon or evening anyway. Food is just all you need after that. Forget and wither...

I told my friend about life being short and beautiful. I referred it to the life of a butterfly. It can live so long as a caterpillar but after metamorphing into the new creature it could only last a week or so.. and about one week later i saw it dead, being carried by giant ants, feasting.
[the beautiful....]

{...this was written more than a month ago...}

This is the latest you could get of me..
Cool full-face helmet but this one's too big for me. Dear someone(s), please show this to Meng Jon, I want to let him see it. It belongs to a friend and he owns a bike, a Kawasaki ZZR250 exactly the same model Jon used to ride. Gona test ride it someday at the apron.

Reap the sowed..Rock ass people.

Anyway, because the writing(about my campus life) is written so long ago, it's outdated. HAHA

Quantum of Solace 2: Heartbreak Armageddon in the process.... The Funeral of Hearts was the prequel and a pilot. ..Allahhuakhbar..
