happy merdeka day!

*tada* finally, m'sia are celebrating 51st birthday!!! *claps*

but still need plenty of improvements. haha. m'sian should know what it means.

anyway, it was rather a quiet night for me. no countdown, no partying, just simple yumcha session with few old friends. haha. i think celebration in the city is just for showing, or rather celebrating for the sake of it. somehow, people are not excited about this celebration. most young people will be in club partying.



merdeka day has become more of a public holiday rather than independent day. people are busy planning their weekend getaway, or how to spend the extra days. nobody seem to care whether it's 31th august or how meaningful it is to us. bet more people tuned into olympic opening ceremony than national's day parade. kesian those fella that joined the parade. but the show must goes on, so all the best to them la.



tomorrow i'm going back m'cca with family, rather than saturday because dad got things to do. last minute change of plan. it is quite unusual for us to go back on sunday and coming back on monday but if this week we don't go back, then the next trip will be weeks to come. maybe after mid autumm festival. i guess the traffic will be quite smooth because most of the people are already out of town, but monday will be nightmare if everyone were to come back at the same time. i wonder how many hours will i be stucked on the highway. better prepare something fun to do. hehe. talking bout mid autumm, it is just 2 weeks away only. this year don't really get the "lattern" feel, or it is just me. until now still nobody give any free mooncake to my family, no celebration plan yet though my mom thought of doing a small makan gathering. but i think grandma already started doing her homemade chocolate mooncake lioa, which always tastes so good. haha.

0.0

this week was not productive at all. didn't get any jobs interview, the call that i've been waiting didn't come, no movie outing this week, and worst of all, my wakeupearlybeforesunshineonmybutt plan failed. must try harder next week. however, i did something that i didn't do for long long long long time. haha.

got a text message from peinee and guess what, she say let's go clubbing tonight. hmmm... interesting since i haven't been to any clubs since CNY this year. so good leh? haha. partly due to busy schedule and laziness. so we went to the newly opened euphoria by ministry of sound, together with her friends. that place was awesome, cool is the only to describe it. haha. the dance floor vibrate according to music beats, something other clubs doesn't have. though it was nice at first but after few hours your legs will get numb and sore especially those music that have continuous beats. hahaha. anyway, it was a new experience, recommended to all clubbers out there.

merdeka day is just around the corner, and since it is long weekend, we'll be going back m'cca! yeah. hahaha. hopefully the traffic will be smooth , cause i think alot of people from outstation will balik kampung. long weekend ma, monday public holiday. anyhow, it always feel nice to go back m'cca, maybe life in kl is just too hectic and rush, while life m'cca always seem so peaceful and slow. 2 more weeks will be mid autumm festival already, not sure whether mom will be doing any makan gathering or not. hope she's free to cook around that time. and i miss grandma's chocolate mooncake also. hahaha.

catching up...

it has been quite sometime since i last meet up with sheryl, think got around 8months long because didn't get to meet up with her during the convo. the last time we meet was last year during christmas season. gosh, so long ago and in few months time, christmas season is here again. feel like ageing so fast. damn! anyway, we decided to meet up at the curve for drink but end up eating lunch, doing some shopping(that's her) and movie.

it wasn't an easy task to wake up by noon since i haven't been doing so in the past few weeks. nonetheless, i make it. hooray! haha. hardly go to the curve during the days. reasons? couldn't wake up in time. hahaha. i was there mostly during the night, either for drink/movie/dinner. traffic is better too during night, easier to get parking and lesser people too. for some reason, i managed to reach there in time, and managed to get a nice parking spot. hmmm... lucky me! especially with typically saturday shopping crowd today. maybe i'm getting my timely mindset back again. lol.

meet up with sheryl and decided go for lunch at tony roma's. spent almost 1 and half hour there eating lunch, updating each other with the latest news/gossip. to my surprise, she broke up with her bf. quite shocking news though, because they seem so close and been together for almost 6years. well, nothing is impossible, that's what i always tell myself. beside her, rex also broke up with her gf. it seem everyone is breaking up these days. is being single the trend now? haha.

violent prisoner+hot chick+hardcore race cars=death race

after lunch, we went to midvalley for movie because that girl keep insisting gsc signature at the garden is better that normal cinema. so we went there for movie, and since i've watched almost every movie that is available now, death race seem to be the only choice. and a good choice i must say because the movie was violently cool. about the cinema, it was good because the seating is something like gold class but not that posh. each row have about 6 to 8 dedicated 2 seater so it quite spacious, the cinema is bigger also. price while, i think it is reasonable for such facility. one advice is bring a jacket, because it is freaky cold inside if the cinema is not packed like today. send her back after the movie, and rushed back for dinner with family. went to klang for dinner, perfect weather for steamboat. hahaha. it was quite a nice outing today, meeting up with old friend that haven't meet for such long time.

because we're too cool for gold...

i think that describes our national shuttler the best, too cool for gold that's why we got silver. a quick silver some more. haha. the whole nation was expecting gold medal, and maybe pak lah will give us extra public holiday like what last time commonwealth that time. however, thing didn't go malaysia way, so just too bad. memang malaysia boleh... boleh tunggu lagi. hahaha.

woke up early today because went to puchong for interview. of all day, this morning rained heavily, super damn nice to sleep man but couldn't do so. forced myself to wake up, sigh. anyway, reached that company around 11am. after filled up the application and talked to the HR lady, i spent almost 1hour waiting for the boss to come into office. what can i do? wait lo. hahaha. and my interview with the boss was like 5min time only, so short. still dilemma bout that job though because still hoping to get other replies. partly because the pay is not so high. but my dad say no harm trying, so probably will go for it. hehe. if really gonna start work soon, then my life will be normal again. no more sleeping when sun rise and wake up when sun set. no more movie marathon. maybe no more yumcha session too. thinking of it make me feel so miserable, better don't think so much la.

1-0-0-th entry!!!!

guess what? it's my 100th blog entry!!!!!!!

*applause*

hahaha. didn't realise that i've been writing blog entry for so long. think almost 1 and half year already. gosh, that's like dinosaur era ago. anyway, like usual i went for movie. hahaha. wednesday is like the best day for movie:

1stly - price is cheaper

2ndly - new movie will be shown

3rdly - if you watch it in 1-utama, free parking

so let's support original movie lah, if not later nobody wanna make movie anymore. the movie i watched is...........WALL.E

well, it's a disney animation movie so you can expect that story and graphic will be quite good. overall, wall.e is a good movie. suitable for adult and kids too. quite educational as well. the movie length was around 90mins but the story plot is pretty good.

wall.e with eve

somehow, the movie was delayed for about 40mins late. haiz. dunno what's wrong with gsc management. movie supposed to start at 1120pm, yet 1125pm only they allow the audience to go in. and as usual, advertisement time take up another 20plus minutes. in the end, movie start at 1200midnite. can die, bought 1120pm ticket but 1200 only get to watch. wasted 20plus minutes sitting inside cinema watching plain old boring commercial. but at least the movie didn't disappoint me. hehe.

p/s:come on lah GSC, improve your services lah!

Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony=AWESOME!!!!

fianally, the beijing olympic games has started. the games opening ceremony started at 8pm, 8th of august 2008 (08.08.08). today is also the 8th day of the month according to lunar calendar. seem like the chinese really care about the number 8. everything also must be 8.

the opening ceremony was superbly awesome. it was the best ever games opening ceremony especially the firework display. super nice and long, like it is free. well, china is the largest firework manufacturer so maybe for them it is like nothing. too bad can only watch it via tv. damn no syoik lah. how i wish i was there.

view from inside "the nest"

view on outside of "the nest"

for those who missed the opening ceremony, better go watch the replay because it was too good to be missed out. alot of incredible perfomances like the drum part, olympic symbols lighting, painting of the scroll, etc. all are world class performance man. super nice! not wonder even our king also wanna go there to watch it live.

the ceremony lasted bout 3hours, including the arriving of each country sport team, until the lighting of the olympic flame. that part was quite chun also, because it look like those martial art movie where people walks on the walll. quite a creative way to light the flame up. if you are firework lover, then you should watch the ceremony. haha.

countdown

madness friday

so far, this is the busiest friday i ever had since uni days. haha. seem like i'm running of time when i got thing to do, and have plenty of time when i'm doing nothing.

woke up early today because i'm heading to pikom pc fair at klcc convention center. meet up with friends and took LRT there. the crowd was so so but klcc was literally packed with people. damn. this is friday leh, those people don't need to work meh? anyway, had lunch at chili's. kwok tong's sister belanja. arigato banyak banyak.

plan after lunch? movie. the queue for movie was long, waited for almost 20mins. can die wei. couldn't get through their telephone booking line. maybe they purposely closed it. kns betul. even after getting the tickets, need to wait another 30mins for lunch too because it was too packed. need to reserve and write down name. we m'sian do spend alot of our time queueing up and get stucked in traffic. what a way to live our life.

okie, back to the movie. it was the 3rd part of mummy series, tomb of the dragon emperor. well, the story was about this cruel being cursed and turned into terracotta army. and some sohai general want to take him back to live and blah blah blah. it was fun watching, especially there is so many asian actor in it. not to mention that it got yeti too. hoho. how often you got yeti (snow man), 3 heads dragon, terracotta army vs dead skeleton in a movie? just take it as comedy and it will be fun watching it.

the movie finished at around 430pm, so next stop will be pc fair. haha. i managed all the things on my list and nothing more. the crowd was okie as it was only the 1st day. lots of eye candy om laptop sector but too bad, i don't own any dsl camera. haha. if got surely i'll approach them to get some shots. left the convention around 7plus and luckily the lrt have increase it trips so i managed to make it to 1U for my 2nd movie: sex and the city.

reached 1U just around 9pm, while the movie start at 9pm. no time for dinner. 2nd time rushing for movie this week, shall watch movie at non-peak hour. rushing really test one's patience especially when you are late and the people in front of you still taking their own sweet time choosing the seats. enter the cinema 20mins late, but the movie just started. this show how much time we are forced to watch spend advertisements in cinema where we pay to watch movie. the movie was good and funny. although i did not watch the series but it was nice watching the movie. recommended to all, but it will be better if m'sia goverment didn't censored so many scenes.

after movie, went for simple meal at mamak. reached house at 2am. what a day! tired, exhausted and pokai also. almost used up movie quota for this month, shall spend less on movie. but there still few movies that i wanna watch like e-wall and red cliff. dilemma.
