Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh, I feel like shutting this blog down.
No idea why but I'm just too lazy to update anymore. Or maybe because my life is a complete bore and I have nothing interesting to share here...

HOW HOW HOW????????
Wow, it has almost been a month since my last update! Which also means that it has been almost 1-month since MJ's passing. Weird thing is, I still have no idea where they buried the King of Pop.
I stayed up to watch the memorial and all, but there was no burial nor was there any news on where he will be buried. Oh wells..
Fire drill.
Accidentally took this pic while I was walking with my phone in hand. Interesting no?
Tried taking pic of a car while driving. Somehow the pic turned out wavy

Woke up this morning as usual, got in the car and turned on the radio. Flipped thru the stations and noticed that every station which I listen to was playing Michael Jackson. Something must be wrong, this can't possibly be some coincidence.
True enough, after one song ended. The DJ announced that the King of Pop has passed away at around 5:30am Malaysian time. So sad.
I grew up listening to Michael. I still remember watching Moonwalked over and over and over again.
I would especially repeat the scene in the bar where he performed Smooth Criminal.
Then there was Thriller, which scared the shit out of me the first time I saw the video on TV. Especially the part where the music stops and the zombies start coming out from the graveyard. Creepy stuff when you're young.
There is so much more of course. Michael Jackson was a performer, a kick-ass dancer, a songwriter, an inspiration to many, the "Elvis" of my generation, an icon and of course..King of Pop.
Sigh, no mood to blog already. I'll just leave you with a video of Michael performing one of my favourite songs of his at the 1988 Grammy Awards. Enjoy.
Rest in Peace.

Caught the midnight screening of Transformers:Revenge of The Fallen last night and I must say that IT WAS BLOODY AWESOME!!!
I had goosebumps throughout most of the most of the movie and the movie is a good 2hour 30minutes!
I will not divulge into the details of the movie, wouldn't want to spoil it for you guys. There are numerous movie critics out there whom have given ROTF a bad review. Apparently to them ROTF is just another CGI filled money sucking(making) Hollywood movie with a crap storyline.
I honestly think otherwise, those fools probably have no idea what they were talking about. If you have seen the Transformers cartoon series and cartoon movie, then you should be excited to see a few "key" characters come to life on the big-screen.
Bad-ass Optimus Prime
It's HUGE!

Microsoft recently announced the "future in video games" with it's Project Natal at the annual E3 press conference.
This is very cool and all, but the question is.. will gamers abandon the traditional controller? Is this the future of gaming?
Personally, I would say NO. To me, a good gaming experience is a good "hands on" experience. If I was to be playing a racing game, I would like to have a physical steering wheel, if it was a beat-em-up game, a joystick with the conventional 6-button would be best. You get my drift.
Project Natal is very impressize indeed. But somehow, I feel it will suffer the same fate as the Wii..limited to only sports, cooking and fitness games.
Project Natal is a hands-free-motion-sensitive controller system. Unlike the Wii which uses a motion-based "Wii-mote", Project Natal is totally controller free. So, if you were to kick a ball in a soccer game, all you'd have to do is to execute a kicking motion.

Understanding the opposite sex has always been a mystery. How many times have you guys out there have been in a situation whereby your gf is upset, and when you ask why she says "nothing". Or when you want to go out with the guys (and prolly some female friends) your gf says "Ok, GO AHEAD have fun".
We all know that there are hidden meanings behind her accommodating answers.
With the help of a forwarded email, hopefully we are able to decode these encrypted messages:

This post is for Angelica because I would like to illustrate to her what I meant by
7) I used to pin the ends of my school pants to the heel of my school shoes. (it was trendy back then OK!) - Angelica, hopefully you will bring this trend back! LOL :P
Have you ever done this in high school? If you were born in the early 80's and went to a goverment school, then you PROBABLY would have seen this trend before. Pinning your baggy Cantona7 high-school pants to your school shoes with thumbtacks.
Like this;
There are a couple of variants to this trend, some would equally put 3 thumb tacks on each side right on the back and some would fill the entire sole with tack, from the side all the way to the back and round to the side again.
So yeah, I used to do stuff like this in school.
Dulu mana ada PSP all.

Moved. Over the labor day weekend (Friday, Saturday & Sunday). Spent the entire 3-days doing some last minute packing, getting rid of stuff that is no longer needed and also loading/unloading the barang-barang.
One weird thing, on the first day of the move which was Friday(Labor Day), this stray black dog (which I have never seen around my housing area before AT ALL) appeared out of nowhere in front of the house. The moment I opened the gate, it ran in and refused to leave no matter how I tried to scare it off.
As me and my mom were packing and loading the stuff into the cars, the dog would just sit on the porch and watch us. The same thing happened on Saturday and then on Sunday, we got an electrician friend to remove the aircond units and interestingly enough, the dog started barking at the electrician. It would even bark at any one who came near the house, but it won't bark at me or my mom.
Can't help but to feel that the dog was there to "look after" us during the move.
sorry for the lack of updates, been busy packing and shifting and also been lazy to update.
Well here's an update, will be moving out of the house for good by tomorrow. Probably won't be able to access the internet for the next couple of days.(except when I'm at work)
It's not that the apartment doesn't have a phone line, but it is because I do not have a table for the PC yet.
So anywayz, gonna shut down and pack up the PC now. Have a nice long weekend everyone ;)

Am trying to recall the songs that inspired and/or helped me and/or entertained me during my college days. So, right off the top of my head, I'm going to post videos of the above mentioned songs.
I miss you - Incubus
Nice to know you - Incubus
Sway - Big Runga
This song gives me goosebumps (good ones) everytime I hear it.
Complicated - Avril Lavigne
Sorry for the live video, Youtube won't let me embed the official vid. Regardless, Avril sounds awesome here though.
Rock Superstar - Cypress Hill
Very old Cypress track, but I first heard it in college. =.="
Don't Speak - No Doubt
Very old (I was still in Form 4 if I'm not mistaken). Been a fan of No Doubt ever since they burst into the scene with this track. Bought every single album of theirs ever since. Even the ones before Tragic Kingdom.
Sleep now in the fire - Rage Against The Machine
You can never go wrong with Rage.
Your body is a wonderland - John Mayer
Wherever you will go - The Calling
Breathing - Lifehouse
Best I ever had / Grey sky morning - Vertical Horizon
All you wanted - Michelle Branch
Goodbye to you - Michelle Branch
Youth of the Nation - P.O.D
Meh..that's all I can think of right now..
I miss you - Incubus
Fantastic song. One of Incubus' best tracks to date.
Nice to know you - Incubus
Everytime I hear this track, I am reminded of Ariff and Bombay's (mamak in Tmn.Mayang last time) and their Ribena ais.
Sway - Big Runga

I'm a BIG BIG BIGGG HUUUUUUGGGEEEE fan of KoRn, Slipknot and Marilyn Manson.
And below are some vinyls which I purchased some 8-years ago? Around there.
Anyway, they were purchased from Melbourne and I have not opened them ever since.
Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar
kthxbye.

So, the inevitable has happened. After months of delays and deliberation, the house which I am staying in is officially legally SOLD. Much to the delight of my relatives.
If you're wondering why I said "much to the delight" of them, kindly clickHERE (I just realized that the original post has been deleted, the link is to another related post) to read my previous post on this matter.
If you're a lazy arse, then let me summarize it for you.
It is going to SUCK though, I can feel it. Won't be easy leaving this house. I spent 20years here. Practically grew up in here. What to do kan?
Oh, and in case you're wondering what the title of this post stands for..

If you're a lazy arse, then let me summarize it for you.
- The house which me and my mom are currently residing in belongs to my grandfather.
- Grandfather passed away. Leaving the house to his kids. My dad, my aunt, my uncle and an older cousin
- Aunt, Uncle and Cousin decide that they want to sell the house. But without the consent of my Dad (cause he's the eldest), a unanimous decision was not met. House can't be sold.
- 1-year later, my Dad passed away.
- Aunt, Uncle and Cousin now have "power" to decide. Decision was made to SELL the house. Forcing me and my mom to look for a new home.

Get The Fuck Out
FUCK YEAH! KoRn was awesome at Sunburst. I can't believe that I actually got to watch them perform live. I have been listening to koRn ever since I was 15. The song that actually got me hooked onto them was "Got The Life" from their Follow The Leader album.
When I heard that KoRn was going to perform at this year's Sunburst festival, I totally blew my load. I HAD TO BE AT SUNBURST, NO MATTER WHAT.
Anyway, to cut short a potentially uber long post, here are some pics I managed to snap whilst being pushed and shoved around in the middle of hundreds /thousands of manic koRn fans.
Credits to Michelle for lending me her Nikon D80 :)
I took wayyyyy more shots, but these are the few decent ones.
A few interesting things I noticed, Jon Davis did not bring his signature mic stand, and somehow, they (the performers) were allowed to cuss on stage. Jon Davis and Pharrel Williams (of N.E.R.D) were happily throwing the word "fuck" to the audience.
I guess since Celcom (the main sponsor) has the Malaysian government's backing, they can do whatever-the-fuck-they-want.
Got The Life
