Title: Iyadashiiiii [the lines —— actually extend the sound] : NO WAY!!

Guess what.. Looks like 白ちゃん/Shiro Chan has to be sent back to the shop... cause it's been 3 days or was it 4? Since I got Shiro back, and as you may have guessed it, by this far of this post... I still get that message... "you need to start up your computer etc."

Just great, and after I've spent a good 2 days updating my software, sigh..

I'm guessing this time, they will have to send my computer to the service centre.. Which will again leave me, wrestling with my parents to use the internet, while I be computerless...

Well, this time I'll be computerless for a longer period of time.. Argghh... why? because they told me, if I was still suffering from problems it would be to the Service Centre for Shiro Chan, and that will take a week or more.. a week, minimum... oh Woe is me...

On the plus side, my blog is up to date.. am only missing the Penang trip post, and well.. as for my moonlighting on Critically Acclaimed.. I've recently posted there, and am in no rush to post again.. as my next post is about food :p or the mooncake festival tomorrow at school, as an event, unless one of the other writers does it..

ギャ——/Gah I'm pissed... but well at least I'll get my computer back..

On the sad side.. Mel's mobile got stolen.. poor creature... another reason why not to like the KTM; molestors and thieves... Ladies please be careful during rush hours on public transportation...

Okay, shall get ready to send Shiro in for servicing.. I won't be very reachable online, so please call me if you need me.. the house is fine as more than often I'm at home, due to as aformentioned, lack of funds.

But the mobile is fine too.. though.. please call me? am low on credit =.=' thanks..

Title: Kawaii Kokitsune.. : Cute little fox

Ermm. I think the pictures are too small.. but the smaller browser is when the little fox is running, i.e when the page loads it runs, and the one behind it, i.e. the bigger browser is how the little fox is when the page is done loading, or isn't loading..

It's really cute.. but as I said it's too small to see..

But installing this add on for your firefox... is something you won't regret.. :) it's really adorable :p



-Oracl3-

Malaysia Today's mirror sites are..

This, & this.. haha

And is it just me, or is MSN being a real pain in the ass...??

OR I just blame Maxis.. They are all a pain in the ass...

-Oracl3-

Note there's a group picture taken by... I think.. Cheese's camera?? This post will be ammended and that picture uploaded when I get my hands on it...

Also.. I've sort of cross posted this.. With a slighlty different commentary on Critically Acclaimed Info.. Henceforth CA...

On the 29th of August 2008, Cheese, Xin Yin, Me, Mel & Xian Ai headed down to Putrajaya to watch the International Fireworks competition 2008 hosted by the Ministry of Tourism..

Due to some unforeseen circumstances we were slightly behind schedule, although we made it in time to watch the fireworks from the start till the end..However, unfortunately, we couldn't get a good spot... But the spot we got wasn't bad either..

Ermm country showing off.. I mean.. well you get what I mean... Was Australia on that day..

The blasted fireworks for close to 20 minutes and it was time to leave... =.=' I thought that I would get to see more.. But apparently each country is given it's own day.. so one day one country.. refer to the site [Link above] for more information.. But I digress, back to the topic at hand...

Hence, once we reached a relatively good spot... Cheese who had brought a tripod, set it up.. and the fireworks started...

OMG.. Atomic bomb?? O_o'

The after effects and the pollution caused by the atomic bomb..... Are those flying body parts of victims... *cringes in horror..*

Okay, okay.. I apologise.. I'll stop being a drama queen & I won't give the competition a bad name.. honestly the fireworks weren't that horrendous.. It was due to my camera that it turned out looking like some atomic bomb attack or something...

Further I was using the special mode for fireworks and without a tripod.. And standing still for at least 15 seconds wasn't an option for me... Hence the disastrous [Literally] effect..

Xin Yin mounted her camera onto the tripod and got much better shots.. befitting the competition...

Compared to my atomic bomb.. this is way... nicer

and more...

more...

more???

Okay that's enough... makes you feel jaded..

After watching the opening for the Beijing's Olympics.. I'm sorry.. but copying the smiley face.. didn't really appeal much to me either.. maybe it was because we were so far away.. that we didn't feel the "oomph" of the fireworks...

You know.. your heart doesn't jump in time with each bang or boom...

But overall it was really fun... especially the journey there.. as they say.. it's not the destination that matters but the journey there.. How true that is..

We had so many laughs in the car.. and poor Cheese who was the driver was being badgered by 4 girls.. and we all know, and have to admit.. the female species isn't the best in directions.. shouts of "left" & "right" at the same time.. left the poor kid confused haha.. Added in with jokes of.. getting lost.. and going all the way to Kajang for satay if we were to get lost or to Semenyih to see Cheese's University Campus haha..

I had a lot of fun in the car...

After the fireworks we headed back home to Aman Suria for a little Yum Cha session at Kayu's...

Eating, drinking and chatting.. After Aeons I finally had my Ramly Burger and Indon Mee... Yes.. I know.. I eat a lot.. or rather.. I ate a lot that night...

So at bout.. 12 something close to 1? We left the mamak and headed home.. With Cheese dropping everyone home.. and he and I experienceing a little expedition in Paramount Garden haha... It was a fun night.. Now to cross post this on critically acclaimed? :p

Cross posted on Generation Lim

On the 23rd of August 2008, My relatives from Tien Men, China 天門 中國 Came down to Malaysia for a visit, so what goes on, but another family gathering, which includes food and wine... [Literally]

Hence, we headed off to KL, to a Restaurant called Hakka Restaurant behind The Pavillion [A new high end shopping mall in KL] for... steamboat...

No pictures of food though.. sorry.. But we have pictures of my relatives haha...

Here we have Yen Ping and Fiona...

GL's lazy contributor, Yen Ling & I

My Aunt from China.. she's already 70 something I heard.. Doesn't speak any dialect except a certain dialect of Hokkien, it's not the usual Malaysian Hokkien.. So sadly, we couldn't converse much with her..

Here, we have my mom, the other aunt and my cousin brother from China, and my uncle.. Those two spoke that Hokkien dialect and mandarin.. So we could still converse with these two.. but my Chinese isn't very superb, and I didn't know what to say .... Besides the other aunts and uncles were having lively conversations with them haha

Here are my other aunts.. and my granduncle.. all located in Malaysia except for one who is based in Singapore..

As I said there was food & wine haha.. So here I am.. With my wine...

Edit: Apparently I was told that it's Chocolate Lounge.. not Shop.. hence the change :p

On the 29th of August 2008, upon waking up I got a call from Mel.. asking whether I was free to meet up for high tea or something, as Jin Fong was free to meet up that day...

So with Xian Ai as the driver, she came to pick me up with Mel, and Jin Fong and we headed to Bandar Utama for a High Tea...

Ever heard of The Chocolate Lounge? Yes, that's the name of the shop The Chocolate Lounge...

As Cheese had said that, that was the shop for Mel, and Mel had insisted on trying it ever since he said that.. now seemed like a good as time as any.... So we headed for it...

Now as we all know.. I'm not a very big fan of sweets.. Well, not as much as I used too... I've moods for such things.. Moods which are so unpredictable and temperamental as the weather in the United Kingdom...

But I'm no selfish goon.. if you want to try it.. and if I won't die from it.. What's stopping you.... So... okay.. we set down.. it's self service by the way... you've to order at the counter...

After deciding what we wanted.. we ordered.. and waiting for almost and eternity before we were greeted with these...

4 Cold chocolate drinks.. with names pointless to remember... maybe... I don't know... I remember the drink called Ice Queen.. because I was called that last time.. there's a mocha something in there too.. which Obviously I blatantly rejected...

Erm, we ordered two plates of ermm desserts, Belgian waffle?? and Banana pancake..

Close up of the pancake.. This was really delicious.. I dont' know why we don't have an individual shot of the waffle.. Don't ask me.. I didn't bring my camera.. All pictures are courtesy of Mel's mobile...

The waffle was okay.. but because we were waiting for everything to arrive it got cold and hard.. I think it would have been really delicious had we eaten it there and then...

It was quite pricey, and not really meant for the student's pockets.. Unless they have a free flow from their generous parents.. A drink there cost about RM10.90, whilst the desserts cost RM14.90, and they would happily charge you an extra 5 bucks? I think.. If you would like to add a scoop of ice cream to your dessert.. I'm a poor student.. and that amounted to almost robbing me poor in broad day light...


Here I am before the spoil....

Overall... All the chocolate was really jelak.. Resulting in me not really being able to eat dinner... =.='

But the banana pancake was really delicious.. and is recommended if you can afford it...

*To get more kick from this post.. think... Drama Queen.. Okay I know my readers don't like to think.... but hey, trust me.. it's worth a shot :p*
~Today working tirelessly for us is Miss Green Monologue... Because... I didn't know what other colour to choose... and Mr. Rainbow Monologue is on leave today...~

Think Frankenstein... Think of the Scientist [sorry forgot the name... was there even one?] celebrating when that bolt of lightning brought Frankenstein to life..

Oh yes.. the maniacal laughter.. chilling to the bone... Now imagine me.... Muahahahahahaha [Darn.. I really want my onion head emoticons here... =.=']

Not that hard? Because I'm always laughing like a maniac anyway right? Well, with the right catalysts that is haha...

Okay.. after that accusing post last night. . seems like blogspot is working fine again today... Will this run of its good mood last? or will I be again faced with the doom of being unable to blog on my cute specially designed [by ccy] special, special blog??!! [Did I say special? oh yeah.. I did.. 3 times in a sentence... ]

Oh no, no, no.. [Think drama here... Back of hand on forehead... falling into a half faint... I would faint properly, only that there's no one to catch me except Precious.. and I would definitely squish the inklings out of him haha ] the horror of it all.. I can hardly imagine it... My heart cannot take this.. To be separated from my one and only..... Errr.. one and only... Ermmm.... Hmmm... Well one and only something....

Well, as far as it seems to me.. All seems well for the time being.. which means.. soon I'll be posting about.... ermm.. my fireworks trip in Putrajaya... the visit to the Chocolate Shop in Bandar Utama... ermmm.. The Penang Trip.. ermm... My recent family dinner.. That will have to be cross posted to Generation Lim... ermmm I think that's bout it... If I've posted anything anywhere else.. I will declare that in a post here.. Have no fear my dear lovelies..

Fans of my writting.. if there even is any.. [laughs..] will not be deprived of any single bit of my ermm.. talent?? haha..

I'm back to hermit mode due to the lack of funds.. Donations are highly appreciated... :p

-Oracl3-

Am I the only one, or can anyone else in Malaysia enter blogspot? Not just to blog but to view other's blog. I sure can't.. To view my blog or other friend's who use blogspot, I have to go through a proxy. Whereas my sister in Athens has no trouble in viewing the page.. That is enough proof that the site isn't down for maintanence.. further.. usually maintanence does not last more than 24 hours.

ああ！めんどくさい [Argh, So troublesome]

As with proxies, one cannot log in, as was evident with Veoh.com.. Damn those people in veoh.... if you can't log in, there's practically nothing you can do. How then, am I blogging now, you may ask?

Oh, a very well placed question that is.. indeed... Lucky for some of us, blogspot allows for posting through email..

Though this leaves me concerns about pictures... I can't arrange my pictures and comment below them as I usually do in emails now.. can I? Sigh.. we will see what is going on.. I shall google about this later?

Some may be scoffing, thinking am I paranoid or something.. I mean Why would Malaysia block blogspot?

Another well placed question, which is not without its answer.

As most Malaysians should know, the government blames the bloggers, and has blocked Raja Petra's Malaysia Today site.. What's the connection?

A lot of politicians use blogspot to blog.. didn't you know? It's free that's why. Though some got themselves their own web address... Malaysia has a lot of blogspot users... and quite a number of them post political stuff and all.. Hence it's no surprise if they decided to block it... but without warning? What bout those of us who blog for fun?? The poor deprived and ignored majority of the people who use blogspot to blog rather than talk politics...

I can't really be counted as one of those poor souls.. but honestly my blog is 98% my journal.. I mean what's the problem.. but well, before I start pointing fingers... I shall wait and observe, and do a little research as to the reasons why I can't enter blogspot... You know, maybe Malaysia screwed the cables up or something.. through no fault of the government...

As of now... sorry if there are any mistakes and all.. as obviously I can't enter my account to ammend anything... ermm.. and well..

Fortunately or not.. I'm not blogging deprived as I've been added as a contributor to critically acclaimed info... A site made by some old schoolmates... Well, I've got some food reviews for that one... and well, if they add an anime/manga section.. I'll have more...

Recently been watching Bakumatsu Kikansetsu Irohanihoheto... Interesting Shounen type anime about the Bakumatsu period (the end of the Edo Era) I know it's from last year, but I didn't have the time for it... I'm not done yet though, as my files which I downloaded in the UK with amazing speed are corrupted.. And I need to re download some 3 episodes to continue on with my show.. So I shall review that later.. hopefully on my own blog.. if not well... *shrugs*

Ermm, bout 白ちゃん's (Shiro chan) status... After doing some sewing, and deciding to go online... I got that same darned message again today, but when I restarted it.. It's working fine till now... fingers crossed? But just to be sure, I'm saving my files into my hdd.. which I took the oppurtunity to purge some really old files and all... such a mundane day.. felt lifeless, just staring at the computer the whole day, moving files around, deleting files.. etc... *yawn* if it makes you feel better.. just assume It's that time of the month haha

Sorry for being unresponsive.. Feeling kind of lazy to getting back down to translating Ghost Hunt's volume 10 manga...

You know, I actually calculated.. If I were to at least translate a page a day, the whole thing would be done in about 3-4 months.. but look at me here.. sigh.. started in April..it's September now.. Ok, I had exams.. and some pages really takes hours to translate.. since my Japanese is self studied after all.. and my Kanji knowledge isn't superb... =.='

Ermm, for someone with no mood... This is quite a lot? Haha.. I shall end now then...

Since I can't watch Bakumatsu for lack of files.. I'll find something else to watch...

I'm begining to hope the other animes, which I've burnt but not watched or; watched and burnt but didn't check, don't turn out like my Bakumatsu =.=' It's just too troublesome to have to download again especially in Malaysia, seeing that our connection here is so superb =.='

And since mkv & mp4 file extensions don't agree with Mac no matter what programme I download.. I'll have to use my parent's computer? haha Luckily.. for them.. or for me... I don't have many mp4 or mkv files.. as I prefer avi, since Mac can play that well...

So that's all for now.. I hope blogspot comes back alive soon & fast!! And it better not have been blocked...

*Enjoying her cute new firefox... A little fox runs in the right hand corner everytime the page is loading.. チョ可愛い [Super cute] :p*

On the 21st of August 2008, after refusing to plan any outings because Seoh said he would do it... Which, as expected, in the end resulted in it being arranged and planned out by me and Leong, we went out for karaoke.. [I was dubbed the Event Manager ==' pay me and I won't mind the title haha... >:)]

Unfortunately, as Seoh had work, we had to go at night... ==' which means more expensive.. sigh.... But all the same we had fun... So who went? well, there was obviously the 3 people mentioned above, plus Xin Yin and her friend.. Pei Ling? Hope I got her name right...

I honestly wasn't very happy that I had to end up doing the work, when it was only for 4 people, and Seoh was busy bragging that he had orgnized bigger things than this.. knowing him, his information isn't credible.. or maybe he is more responsible when it comes to work, but couldn't give two hoots when it comes to friends...

Since he was bragging so much, I meant to teach him a lesson, and I decided to really not lift a finger.. if he doesn't do it, I just don't karaoke, simple I won't die from that.. but guess Leong really wanted it? haha cause he got the ball rolling, and arranged for a time when we were all free... hence.. we ended up in Red Box at the Curve..... Though I had expected it to turn out that way... I still wasn't happy =.='

But I wasn't about to let that spoil my mood for the night right? and besides.. Seoh offered to drive.. so it was all well and fine... and off we went for a buffet karaoke...

The new pop star? haha

Xin Yin & I, you know, actually this picture was taken upside down? Honestly 360.. Maybe.... Hmm... oh well... *shrugs..* cross your fingers to say goodbye to days where you tilt you heads to view my pictures here...

Obviously and outing is never complete without a groupie..
Well, we should know everyone here by know.. the unknown is Pei Ling. We've got some posers here haha

Nick Leong & I

Nick Seoh & I, after many attempts of trying to take this picture by ourselves.. cause he's vain?? it's the truth... haha

Pop stars in the making? haha Those were some of the food we ate haha..

And that 's all.. nothing much.. we sang/screamed?? till we were haorse, and well, I think the fun thing bout night karaoke is, if they don't have patrons waiting to take over your room.. you can sing till kingdom come....

Not to say it's my first time karaoke-ing at night, but the last round we left to catch fireworks, and well, me being a poor student... We usually go in the day time cause it's cheaper... It was an experience.. and it was quite fun.. Did I mention.. really pricey too? O_o'

Title: Okaeri Shiro Chan/ Welcome back Shiro Chan

Yay... I got my computer back from the shop... Although they said serviced... Doesn't look like they did much... and it seems I'm in a little tight spot in downloading anime from one of my usual sites.. something to do with the Java, but well, my software is being updated.. so I'll see how it is after the update..

As of now.. I shall rejoice a little.. I will have to call them tomorrow about installation CDs... =.='

Okay, as mentioned below, my computer's OS just decided to play a nice little prank on me, and to top it off, I can't find my damned installation CDs anywhere, because as mentioned, my brother has been suspected of absconding with it... to of all places Australia.. oh, woe is me.. [*places back of hand on forehead in a feint*]

I've been searching like a donkey for a few months on and off for it, as my computer's blue tooth was acting up, and I wanted to use the CDs to test the hardware.. sigh.... oh woe is me... my brother is no help at all either.. every time I ask him to look for it, he will say later, or something, he's tired, this and that.. well given that I didn't nag him enough to do it.. I actually honestly don't talk much to him.. There's nothing to talk about with a person who just goes "sigh.. anything?"

And in fact in all honesty, it borders on irritating.. so now we all know why, I don't like to talk to someone like that.. I'm better off talking to the dog than talking to him!!

Ok back to the root of my woes... I was minding my own business as usual.. with my Shiro chan [yes, sue me, I named my laptop.. and it means little white... for obvious reasons] when suddenly I get this message stating that my computer needs to shut down, hold down the power key bla bla...

I couldn't do a thing but comply as mindless and random clicking proved fruitless, and every time after that, whenever I tried to revive poor Shiro chan, I get the same freaking message.. So I freaked... Naturally, since I don't have the installation CDs I can't do nuts.. I called the shop where I bought my computer from, only to learn they have closed down, probably due to lack of business or something.... oh woe is me...

What's a girl to do then, but turn to the internet for help? I tried the mac forums, but there wasn't a soul who mentioned such a problem, and thus I had to frantically search for another mac center in which I could call, and ended up calling a helpful soul in Low Yat, thus upon my dad's return from his adventures on the green [Read that as golf game] I headed to Ikano to let Shiro see a witch computer doctor...

Alas, Shiro lacked memory space for the said doctor to accomplish whatever it was, he needed to accomplish, and I didn't bring Shiro's partner, Oracl3 the External hard drive..

So, I had to go home, empty Oracl3 the HDD, and head back to the witch doctor to clear some space on Shiro for the doctor's purposes.. That being done after dinner.. whilst rejoicing at the shop, that I would get Shiro back tomorrow, my dad suddenly requested that the witch doctor service my Shiro..........

Because Shiro is still under its warranty, and it should not cost much, except maybe the handling fee, and if Shiro's bluetooth needs replacement that would cost us too.. either than that it was supposed to be free... due to the 500 bucks we spent to extend Shiro's warranty 2 years ago..

Don't get me wrong.. it's good.. after 2 years, and my extensive abuse. Shiro is entitled to be serviced..

Yes.. SERVICED....

Oh, yes.. serviced...

yes

....................
[you know that famous portrait entitled scream by van goth?? Well imagine me like that, hands on the cheek with the mouth as such, soul escaping through the rounded mouth... eyes two black holes... under a spotlight.. moving father, and farther way, effectively becoming smaller n smaller.. darn.. I need an emoticon for this haha Times like these, I really miss my onion heads...]

it's

..............................................................
[means I was speechless you dimwit. sigh...]

That meant, instead of getting my Shiro back tomorrow as expected, I might have to wait over a week, before I can touch my precious Shiro again.. and till then, to go online, I will have to wrestle with my parents over the use of the IBM laptop.. and to top it off, since it's not my computer, I can't download or anything, and they don't have the appropriate codecs for me to watch my anime should I wish to watch them, unless I download them myself..... Although the Nero player seems capable of playing avi files, I shall test it out later... The Nero player is retarded, tried and tested... [shall try to download vlc later... :p]

Luckily I've memorized the passwords to the sites I frequent [some of you may be going.. "Puh-lease, with the IDs and PWDs you chose.. even I can help you remember..." Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but that may be true only for anime & manga related sites], thus activities such as checking my mail, facebook, livejournal or even blogging isn't deterred provided I win the battle with my parents.. but since I use the internet at ungodly hours.. There's not much wrestling going on.. Though what am I to do during the daytime remains a mystery...

I was thinking on working on my translations for the Ghost Hunt manga volume 10, in which I had saved the RAWs in my external drive.. Alas, the IBM doesn't seem to be able to open the file. So if I can't see the picture, how on earth do you expect me to translate????!!

I thought of maybe chatting when I get the computer.. Thus I signed into meebo.. but yet again, I am dettered, due to msn being an ass, and to my lousy chipsmore cookies connection...

Will I.. Nay, the better use of the word would be, Can I survive this whole week without Shiro Chan???!!

I don't know that remains to be seen.. in actual fact.. similar to Wall E, without technology getting in the way, there are plenty of other things to see and do.. one of them would be, completing my photo album, playing the poor piano, violin and guitar which have been ignored for quite some time... Read one of the many books collecting dust on my book shelf... bake? sleep? clean? [well, my grandma's maid is here with her, and she's doing all the cleaning.. well.. unless I want to wash my toilet.. but she had already done that... sort off...]

Playing with the blender or something.. continuing the fiction that I had left abandoned for years...?? [start writing poetry and stories again??] There's plenty to keep one occupied.. I know, I definitely 100% won't shrivel up and die,[It was tried and tested..] even if I had to live without the internet for the whole week.. There are plenty of ways to keep me preoccupied.. oh sorry.. occupied??

Going out would be an example.. only problem is that I lack companionship and money.. ooh.. This is a really good time to get a boyfriend muahaha...[*claps hands in excitement*] ok, ok.. I shan't abuse and utilize him for such a reason... ermm.... but alas, I've no poor unsuspecting &, unfortunate soul to rope in my devious plots.... muahaha.. lucky them muahahaha

Okay, okay.. enough with wallowing in the pessimism, though all I can currently see are more cons than pros.. but the only single pro that I can clearly see, would be that Shiro should come back working as good as new.. and hopefully with all Shiro's contents [read that as my files..] intact and unharmed....

Errm.. there are hopes for that, but it remains to be seen..

On another note... Aoi chan's [little blue, that's my mobile, again so called for obvious reason.. I'm sorry.. but I wasn't in the mood of getting creative and calling them weird names like.. Mr Bang for my computer and Ms Screw for my mobile.. besides.. naming them after their colours make their names easy to memorize... whenever I have to...] battery seems to be acting up, requiring to be charged more frequently, but am not sure, because as of late, it seems that I'm texting and calling a bit more often.. due to certain reasons, such as organizing MPOs or meeting with friends, or friends calling me about this and that...

On a side note, due to the Edison Chen scandal, I was very careful about what files I left in my computer.. Well, it isn't much, my computer has no pictures of cute/naked ladies nor any porn to humour the people at the computer shop...

But on the safe side, I deleted a fair few things... Things which I considered private, and well, things in which might be abused.. such as blog posts which I had written on words.. or the drafts... or well.. just things, which I felt should not be seen by strangers...

When I told my dad I left my CV folder in there, he was a little worried.. Initially, I was fine with it, having thought it over, I mean what could they do with my CV? Except use it as an example to write their own CVs? Well, due to my dad's worry, I went over it with my dad.. and the conclusion was.. the only detrimental thing they could do to me was.. applying for jobs on my behalf [haha... I mean, they can't do anything without my credentials..? The certs are all with me...]

But I was mean.. I didn't even leave any anime or manga for them to copy if they wanted to.. The only thing I think I left was Tokyo Majin? sigh due to lack of space.... But it is no big loss to me, as I could always download that again... if I lose that... and well my endless amount of music.. mostly classical...

Come to think of it, the only discriminating thing they would have against me would have been those lesbo mangas/comics I downloaded to see what it's all about.. but I thought about that and have already deleted it haha.. so unfortunately, no lesbo manga for my archive.. unless I download them again... Which is highly unlikely...

I was actually forced to sacrifice some files.. such as aforementioned lesbo mangas.. but also my shoujo/girl romance story like mangas.. sigh.. some which I have back ups, some which I don't but all obtainable yet again, through the wonders of modern technology [ie they are available for download online haha]

Well, that's that.. now for some random oddities...

Tomorrow if it doesn't rain.. we get to go to Putrajaya to watch the fireworks competition courtesy of Cheese...

I'm sorry I snapped at Horng Yang just now.. but well... when someone keeps rushing you, then takes his own sweet time.. one is bound to get irritated.. no matter how displaced... but still, my bad... ermm....

Guess that's all.. this Rant is already one heck of a long.. Let's see if I can survive this.. merely by watching avi files on Windows Media Player haha..

-Oracl3-

I doubt anyone would have anything that important to look for me for, besides just to have some mindless chatter with me. but well, if you miss me that much, or if there really is something really important to say, I'm sorry but you are going to have to call me or text me, though I prefer you to call... cause well.. texting is a pain.. Sorry I'm a stingy pain in the ass haha...

ermm The reason? well.. my Macintosh OS got corrupted.. most probably due to me stuffing it silly with anime and manga.. but according to the guy, it's because I didn't eject USB stuff properly....

Well, best part was just today I wanted to clear some space on it, when it died on me, so that left me with no choice but to bring it to the shops to get it fixed.. and that's where it currently is. I don't know how long it will take them to fix it.. but most probably I will be without a computer for 2 or 3 days tops...

Scratch that, my dad decided that it was high time my little shiro chan got serviced since it was still under warranty, so I'm without a computer for a week or more now, ~sobs~... .. so in that time span, call if you need me, thought I'll try to be online where possible....

What else.. oh yeah Cheese, bout the fireworks thing.. you could text or call me bout it? but like I said, if the weather is good we can go :) I have a friend who is interested :)

Happy thing? Well my computer is still under its warranty so it shouldn't cost me a bomb just to reinstall the OS.. no thanks to what I suspect as my brother, whom I again suspect has stolen/ accidentally taken my installation discs with him to Australia... sigh....

That's all.. hope my files survive this... I don't want to have to download the whole season of persona trinity soul again ~sobs~

We Malaysians need to have our Judiciary restored!! We can't keep being NATOs [No Action, Talk Only]

If we want a change, don't be afraid, I mean, if they want to imprison us, the prisons won't be able to keep thousands of us, so they can't do it, if the people stand up together to voice their opinions then what can the government do but concede..

Malaysians, stop being cowards, and keep saying that you only want change but back down, when it comes time for you to participate, wanting change only at your own convenience, how much more selfish can you get.. I know Malaysians are quite the inconsiderate and selfish bunch as can be seen from the level of manners they portray, but still.. If you are brave enough to vote for a change, then see through it, Jangan Hangat-hangat tahi ayam saje!!

Go sign the petition, they are trying to get 50,000 signatures before they can bring the petition to the king!! go here to sign

On another note, I'm not particularly patriotic, but hanging the Malaysian flag upside down, isn't a very good move, yes it's not illegal, but it is still an abuse, because usually it is a sign of distress during war times.. so I don't think it's right to say we are distressed when we aren't going through any civil war or whatever and hanging the flag upside down. Being politically distressed, on my opinion, doesn't seem to be a rightful reason to hang the flag upside down. What can other nations do for us, besides stirring up more trouble for us?

Please realise that what you want to protest against isn't the country itself but the government, certain parties, and certain politicians. Don't mix them up.

Also, Malaysian politicians and residents have to show respect for the flag itself.. using it in costumes and all... from the start I know it's a no-no.. so instead of badgering people bout disrespecting the flag by hanging it upside down.. fix that mentality of abusing the flag first.. people follow by example.. if the leaders allow the abuse of the flag.. obviously the people will do too...

Okay, I dared post about it this, because I'm quite sure they won't have a case against me haha.. because as said before, I daren't post too much about politics now a days, due to certain reasons.. you know the drill, abuse of powers etc.

Also for the poor TMnet users who can't access Malaysia Today, click here for the proxy

On another note, the rushing of the tabling of the DNA bill is TOO RUSHED... Shows us how much arrogance and planning some people had.. if i was going to sa*b**ge [guess the letters yourself haha] someone, no matter how secure I'm, I always cover my ass... but sigh.. no comments..

Tonight Eugene will have to catch his 1am flight back to America... but before that, as his promise to go to the pasar malam (night market) with me, became unfulfilled due to multiple reasons, we decided to catch the movie Wall E instead.

Poor pitiful me, initially had no one to watch the movie with, as other friends had already watched it prior to me.. well I had then intended to go with my mother, but since Eugene hadn't watchted it yet, and wants to watch it too, so he got the tickets the night before, and the next day he came around 1220pm to pick me up for the movie..

We arrived around the time the movie started and headed in to a real meaningful and cute movie. It's really meaningful, teaching us that we have to look after our planet ourselves, no one is going to look after it for us, and that well, everyone shouldn't be so immersed in their own world and should take time to look around their surroundings.

In the show, well this was observed by Eugene and also somewhat by me, the show is also trying to convey the dangers of technology, and well, the obedience of just following orders blindly, and accepting everything in society as correct, and in the end fighting for what you believe in is the best choice for you and for other people.

The symbolism, a dead world, garbage piled higher than the tallest buildings in the city, the colourless world, etc.. oh well, shan't spoil it for those who haven't watched it yet. it's a wonderful, funny, yet touching and meaningful movie, I seriously recommend it.

I enjoyed myself at the movie :) after the movie, Eugene & I headed off to McDonalds for a late lunch before heading home, as he still had some last minute packing to do before his flight tonight. Although I don't know why I felt so tired the whole time.. oh well, we had our usual meaningless/meaningful debates/conversation haha...
