If Today Was Your Last Day

This is the last day of the year 2008, and of course there are celebrations, right? I'm taking this opportunity to share countdown pictures & videos at Hulu Langat.. And then there'll be a seperate post for New Year's Day. See how hard I'm trying to keep this blog alive? Haha.. Anyway.. Let's start from Gasoline Cafe, the place where we had our dinner before the countdown.

We had steamboat there, but were pretty disappointed by the service. Very, very bad service by the waiters/waitresses. We literally waited 1/2 an hour after the order for the drinks to come, about 1/2 an hour for the pot to be placed onto the table, 15 minutes for the stove to be lit up, and roughly another 1/2 an hour for the dishes to be on our table. Heck, even the bill came 10 minutes after I requested for it, and after three times of reminding the waiter. It was RM 157.20, I paid RM 160 & left them to keep the change. I don't wanna wait another 1/2 an hour for the RM 2.80.

Chua & Chan.

This is the regular couple in my blog, no need for introductions. =D

Kati with Matrix-effect?

Hmm...

Looks good..

We reached at 8 P.M., started eating at 9 P.M. or so & finished everything by 11:30 P.M.. 2 & 1/2 hour on a dinner is a waste of time. Sigh..

The entire place was crowded. I've never seen the hill so packed with people before. Every single restaurant up there is full, with no tables available if reservations are not made earlier. There are at least 50-100 people on the look out tower alone; I wonder if it had enough strength to support the weight of a few elephants. Heh. Collapse, my dear!!

Random~

My goodness..

Can you see Koh? Cos' I can't see his EYES!! Hahaha..

Okay, 2 videos. 1 bad take, but hilarious. Another 1 with the fireworks. Enjoy.

Do you hear Chan's voice in the background? LoL.

Fireworks... I'm sorry if the video is a bit shaky, because I did not bring my tripod and those creeps are pushing around behind me, together with a bad sore on my right arm after holding the camera up for so long.

With that and a song, I end the last post for this year. Happy New Year to all of MX-Lair's readers, and all the best in 2009. Forgive me if there are any mistakes that I've done, for I'm just a human and a human cannot be perfect. Year 2008 was a challenging year for everyone, so let's learn from our faults & use the experiences to improve our lives in 2009.

Headlock

There are tons of reasons why I just won't let my dad drive my car. Here's one of them;

Ya' see? 1 & 1/2 month into owning the new Innova & he already broke one of his tail-lamps. And of course, as a son that he don't care about, I went around looking for a new replacement tail-lamp for his car, as I just can't bear to see it that way. A Made-in-Taiwan piece will cost RM250, while the original Made-in-Japan piece from Toyota will cost roughly around RM400. A piece. Sigh.. I'll look for a way to replace the lights, dad.

Oh, and speaking of tail-lamps... I've replaced the original set of tail-lamps with a smoked-Passo set, and a new deafening Bosch horn, together with some dead-headlamp-lightbulbs replacement. Didn't cost me much; altogether costs less than a piece of Taiwan-made Innova tail-lamp. Seriously. And it looks good, too.

New Passo-lights.

My reflectors are not replaced with LED-strips, they lighted up because of the camera flash. =.=

Lights on, from the side.

Lights on, from behind. I know, my reflectors are working well. =.=

Ooohhh, I'm so addicted to Imogen Heap now. Hide & Seek, you guys heard that right? Headlock now. I love her voice too much, sorry to involve you guys into this. Hahaha. She's good, and listen to this to prove that I'm right. Lyrics below, in case if you don't know what she's blabbering about. Heh.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Distant flickering, greener scenery.
This weather's bringing it all back again.
Great adventures, faces and condensation.
I'm going outside to take it all in.

You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

We're a different pair, do something out of step.
Throw a stranger an unexpected smile...with big intention.
Still posted at your station.
Always on about the day it should have flied.

You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Been walking, you've been hiding,
And you look half dead half the time.
Monitoring you, like machines do,
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye

I've been walking, you've been hiding,
And you look half dead half the time.
Monitoring you, like machines do,
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye
So what, don't care, will not, the end

You know you're better than this

I'll make you start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Castaway

Sigh.. Boring day again. Right, EeWon SMSed me just now & asked what do I think of the Genting trip they planned the other day. I was like, huh?? Genting trip?? ? Nobody told me anything about any Genting trip, and yet she told me that I'll be the one driving all of them up there. Hello, I might be one of the best Genting driver you can find (chewah), but I do have my own dignity & I'm not your full-time chauffeur. Can't you guys inform me earlier about it? Goodness.. I will take my sweet time to think about it but for now the answer is a strict no. Sorry to disappoint you guys, but Genting's Takumi here needs a break.

The grand opening of the new Jusco at Setiawangsa was on the 5th of December, but I only had the chance to visit it today. Not bad, it kinda resemble Ikea or the Curve on the inside, with a fountain in front of the mall. I'm guessing that it's too costly for them to ventilate the entire mall, so the shopping centre is partially air-conditioned and partially fan-ventilated. Fan!! The same fan I had at home on the ceiling of my dining room. =.= Will explore the entire place soon..

Castaway, by Benny Benassi. Please don't listen only to Satisfaction, this is good too!! The bass is just nice in my car, especially with the amplifier switched to full range.. Huhu..

My Heart Will Go On

A glance at the title, I guess most of you will be wondering why the heck am I uploading such an old song for the post today. And your mind will automatically associate the song with the highest grossing movie of all time; Titanic, starring Leonardo DiCaprio & Kate Winslet.

It's a 1997 film, which means it's a 11-year old movie. I've decided to download & watch it again. Lame, ya'll might think. But I personally think that it's a good movie, and watching the 3-hour film again is never a waste of time. 10 years ago, I was too young & naive to understand the movie & it's storyline. But now, it's different. I cried at the end of the movie, simply too touching. Skip the hot & steamy scenes, guys.. Watch the movie with your heart, and let the love story sink into your heart. 4.7 out of 5 stars.

Oh, almost forgot. Here's a video that I wanted to share with ya'll. A Thai TV commercial.

Heheheh.. Have a nice day!

Trance Up

Boring day. Went to Pavilion for the third time in a week, but not for movies. Had dinner with Nicole at Sakae Sushi, damn I love the curry chicken don. Argh, addiction.. And oh, my car broke down when I'm on my way to pick her up at her house. Luckily I was at the traffic light & it's red. Everything shutted down all at once, the air-cond went off, the radio went off, the ignition went off. It all happened at once, and after trying to restart the car for a few times, I instantly knew the source of the problem. I popped the hood up & checked the battery connections; I was right. The connector of the positive terminal was loose & went out of place from speed bump & pothole shakes. So I quickly connected it back, got back into the car, started the engine & drove to Nicole's house before tightening the screw on the connector.

Life is boring, and I think I'm gonna start hunting for a job very soon. Feeling bored everyday, sitting at home doing nothing. I'm now currently keeping myself entertained by watching the TopGear series, some sort of television car magazine show. The next CSi: Miami episode will only be available next year, in January. Oh I miss Horatio.. LoL.

Trance Up, by Basshunter. I didn't know that Basshunter made this song, but I do enjoy it.

Living On Video

I had an unpleasant experience with one of my friends today, but let's just leave that aside & move on with what I did today. Watched Ip Man, again. This time with Lum & Nicholas. The movie is presented in dual-dialect in Malaysia; emphasizing the usage of Mandarin & Cantonese rather than Mandarin only, which is the primary language/dialect for Chinese movies in Singapore. But it was rather disappointing; some parts of the Malaysian version is censored & cut by the Board of Censorships, altering the storyline & confusing the audience at the same time. Why do they have to censor/cut them? I still don't understand...

The Christmas tree at the main entrance of Pavilion.

Decorations in the middle of Pavilion..

Then we went for a stroll around the mall and came to a Jaguar showroom. The cars are beautiful! I wish I could own one, if I'm rich enough. Huhu.. The XJ & XF, luxury cars that I'll choose over Mercedes & BMW, just for the sense of uniqueness. I love the XF, a sports luxury sedan that have the Aston Martin look at it's rear end. LoL.

XJ & the XKR.

My favourite~ XF.

Went to the look-out point again, but this time with my new camera. More pictures on the way.

What a waste of electricity. xD

Finally, a nice picture..

I like this one.

Okay, okay. Ending post. Going out. Living On Video - Pakito.

All hell broke loose!! Parents scolded me for driving to Genting, telling me about how dangerous it is bla bla bla.. They were so noisy that our next door neighbour thought there was a fight going on & decided to call the police to patrol the area. Yeap, that serious. I don't see why do they have to be so angry about it; I already asked for their permission on the day before & after 1/2 an hour of lecturing, they allowed me to go.

I'm not giving a damn about that. Here's the video & pictures that I've promised last night.

Notice the black Estima at around 4:00. I was so close to it, squashed between the road divider & Estima. Luckily the driver slowed down, I accelerated & got out of the near-collision situation. Phew. The noise heard is not any paint-transfer or knocking noise; it's the ABS.

Pics next, tons to upload. Man, I can't live with Streamyx anymore. P1 WiMax anyone??

Had our dinner at Gohtong Jaya, Thai-style fried rice, Cantonese-style noodles & Hokkien-style fried noodles. LoL. 3 styles in 1 day, you don't often get the opportunity to do that. xD Kati smiling, posing with his Heineken. I still couldn't believe that I actually drank & drove after that.
Dangerous, and there shall not be a second time.

A GTR, again. Spotted at the parking lot behind the outdoor theme park. I wonder how could someone be so rich to leave their expensive sports car parked at somewhere so dark & prone to car-theft? Next to it is an Evo X, both Singaporean cars.


Proudly posing for MX's Lair.

The white-smokish thing in the picture; it's fog. So misty & foggy that even taking pictures is a hard job.

Ice-cream, outside at main entrance. Are we mad? YES!!

And some snooker after that.

I'm not a very fillial son, of course. And so I went out for another yum cha session despite getting scolded by my parents earlier. Who cares, man? Many ex-classmates showed up, and of course, some with new partners. Pictures on the way...

Can you see his pimples? If yes, then welcome to DSC-T500's world. xD

Yip, Koh & Lum.

Sita.. Somebody call the ghostbusters!!! LoL.

Lum & How.

Ng & Koh. Posers UNCENSORED!!

How & Nicholas, fondling with each others' nipples & enjoying every moment of it.

One of the best tonight.

Look at how cheL' & Elaine are focusing on the camera, with Kevin & Nicole focusing on each other at the background. Hahah!!

And then here's a video for tonight, just in case if there's anyone that didn't make it into any pictures that I've snapped. Except me, of course. I don't fancy taking my own pictures, which almost certainly mean I'm not a camwhore.

Finally, all pictures & videos uploaded. Zzz..

It's good to know that most of them are doing well, some working, some living the siu yeh's life just like me. Also, the rumours of Elaine & her new boyfriend is no longer a hoax. LoL. It's true and official; she brought him to meet us today. There, the guy in yellow. It felt weird & awkward, but I'm happy for her. Of course, that doesn't free me from the pain. Let me be a little poetic tonight, alright? In Bahasa Malaysia, I favour.

Hatiku terasa pilu, bagai seribu jarum menusuk-nusuk.
Ku menghargai apa mu tinggalkan,
Memori yang tidak pernah ku abaikan.
Tiada apa lagi yang ku harapkan,
Selain mu dilupakan..

It's been a long time since the last I used Malay language, so there might be some flaws on the single-paragraph poem, but please don't complain.

Going to sleep with tears of joy & sadness, my feelings are all mixed up. I dare not admit that I'm sad. Time to look at life more as a playground rather than a job, a chore.

Gonna watch Ip Man again tomorrow, leaving Wangsa Maju at 12 P.M.. Call me up before that if you wanna join the fun. For now, I'm ending this post. Wish all of my readers a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.. Wait, New Year is still a few days away.. Hmm.. Plans? Will update ya'll with it soon..

Here Is Gone

Merry Christmas everyone!! Sorry I'm a little late on today's post, as I just came back from Genting with Chan & Kati. There are simply too many things, pictures & videos to share, including a near-hot-soup experience. LoL. I almost got into an accident with an Estima, again. =.= But this time it's my fault, and I know that. Everything is recorded in a video, so it should be pretty interesting to watch. Recorded with my camera in HD mode, so expect the best. xD Pictures & videos will be uploaded tomorrow, too tired to do so now.

Oh, and I did got myself into trouble. I think my dad saw me when I was on my way descending the hill, cause he called me and asked, "Where are you now?? You at Genting, huh??". I didn't know what to say, but luckily God was on my side, He helped me to disconnect the call. LoL. I switched off my phone after that and quickly sent Kati & Chan home. Suprisingly I wasn't driving really fast, only on an average of about 100 KM/H. And the ride was perfect, with DynaMat & Audiolab on the doors, 2 layers of sound insulators are formed. Now I'm enjoying the virtues of driving at a moderate speed. LoL. There is no road & engine noise, consumes less petrol & I do not have to stress myself to concentrate more, which is a must when speeding.

Anyway, the Christmas Eve story to be continued tomorrow, here's Here Is Gone by The Goo Goo Dolls. Enjoy, and Merry Christmas.

San Ren You

More modifications to my car!! Well, not modifications, actually. Additions. Fixed all the doors on my car with DynaMat & Audiolab noise deadeners to reduce road noise, engine sound & noises in the car from door panel vibrations. It's not cheap, but I'm too sensitive about all the little cracking & noises that I've decided to go on with my plan with no second thought. Cruising on the highway at 150-160 KM/H is rather enjoyable now.

Visited Nicole today, she together with her sister were hospitalized for dengue fever. Poor girl, wish you get well soon.. I was worried when I heard about it from Kevin, because I've been through that before & it's life-threatening if not treated well. I recalled how my cousin had a delicate brush on the shoulders with death a few years ago due to dengue fever. His platelet count drops to an unimaginable 25,000 per microlitre, but managed to raise back to the normal level after some serious treatments. I'm not sure whether transfusion is used to save him though. So peeps, be extra careful & ensure that there are no breeding places for mosquitoes around you.

Gotta go, tired as hell. San Ren You - Khalil Fong.

Okay, this shall be the most interesting, if not, the longest of the 3 posts promised. LoL. Ip Man (pronounced as Eep Mun), starring Donnie Yen as the leading actor. Damn, the movie is good. A masterpiece. I watched it twice and never regretted it at all. First ever movie to receive 5 out of 5 stars from me. Why?


First, what is it about? It's about the master of Bruce Lee, and his life before & during the Sino-Japanese war. It's a movie nobody should miss, the kungfu actions in it are simply too good that makes me wonder how could they ever made it to the screen. A perfect blend of comedy, kungfu & history, it mixes so well that audience may have their increased heart beat rate, laughs & tears by allowing the director to walk them through the entire storyline. I'm so tempted to reveal the contents of the movie here, but am also worried that it might ruin viewers' experience later... What the heck, highlight the empty space below if you wanna read it!!

Ip Man (Donnie Yen) is a Wing Chun-style practitioner and kungfu master that resides with his wife & son in a mansion at Fo Shan, a martial art town in China. He does nothing else but practices his kungfu to perfection, and quickly became the best kungfu practitioner in Fo Shan, better than any other patriarches of martial art clubs in the town. One day, a group of hooligans from the north (or south?) visited the town, with the leader beating every single kungfu master in Fo Shan. The leader then forced his way into Ip Man's residency & challenged him into a duel. Ip Man won the duel & reclaimed Fo Shan's honour. 

Not long after the incident, parts of China including Fo Shan were invaded by the Japanese after the Marco Polo incident, indicating the start of the Sino-Japanese war. Many lost their lives in the war, and the population in Fo Shan shrank from 300,000 to just 70,000. Food became scarce, people were forced into pawning every valuables they have in order to buy rice from merchants that stocked up before the war. Ip Man had no other options but to work at a coal mine. There, he met a student of his friend, Lin. Lin realised that he lost an iron box while having lunch, and the Japanese Colonel Sato came shortly after, together with a Chinese ex-police captain. A tournament was held, and anyone who could beat the Japanese blackbelts will win a sack full of rice. Lin voluntarily joined the tournament with two of his friends. There, he witnessed his master beating one of the blackbelts and walked away. Upon leaving, his master told him to beat the Japanese to pulps, but the General has got something else on his mind. The General wanted to show the might of Japanese kungfu & asked for a 3 on 1. Lin was killed. Ip Man found the iron box the next day & learned the news from the Chinese interpreter. With anger, Ip Man joined to watch the tournament & saw Lin's master, also his friend, killed by a single gunshot to the head after losing. Ip Man was enraged by Colonel Sato's irrationality, hence asked for 10 blackbelts against him. With the Wing Chun style & agility, he beat every single of the blackbelts, killing a few of them. 

The General was shocked & impressed at Ip Man's ability, and asked for his name & requested him to join the tournament again. Ip Man never did return to the tournament. Instead, he taught kungfu to workers at a cotton mill to protect themselves from the same bunch of hooligan-cum-robbers that challenged the martial clubs few years ago. Ip joined the workers into fighting the robbers and found Lin's brother, Yung, among the robbers. After beating the robbers, Ip passed the iron box to Yung & delivered the news that Lin was beaten to death by the Japanese General. 

Back at the headquarters, the General was longing to see Ip Man in action again, therefore he commanded Colonel Sato & the Chinese interpreter to search for Ip. It doesn't took them long to find Ip at his temporary hut, but Ip protected his wife & son from Colonel Sato & his men by knocking them out. Ip then took refuge at the interpreter's house, but words soon reached the General's ears that Ip makes frequent visits to the cotton mill. Ip then showed up and surrendered at the cotton mill when the Japanese army jeopardizes the workers' lives. He then challenged the General into a duel, which is accepted when Ip was placed in a cell. 

Before the duel, Colonel Sato threatened that he will kill Ip if the General loses the duel. Integrity overwhelmed his fear of death & he won the duel, but the Colonel pulled the trigger and the bullet hit Ip's shoulder. The Colonel was then killed by his own gun in a struggle with the interpreter. Ip Man escaped with his family to Hong Kong where he started his own martial art club, and the war ended soon after.

There you go. LoL. Seriously, it's a movie worth every cent spent. 5/5 stars. If you're a Chinese that understands the Chinese history, then you will appreciate this movie. The Japanese might hate this movie though, due to all the anti-Japanese contents. LoL. My uncle had tears running down his cheeks at the end of the movie as he's a true Chinamen. When I said true Chinamen, I mean it. He's from China, and settled down in Malaysia with his dad during the 70s. The movie is perfect, and the roles are genuinely portrayed. There is no one else better than Donnie Yen to hold Ip Man's character, especially considering the fact that he's a real-life multi-martial-arts master. His kungfu is simply unbelieveably beautiful; an actor with such perfected skills is hard to come by. So, watch this one my friend. You'll never regret it. 

Bus at 8:30 A.M. tomorrow, from my own estimation I'll reach K.L. around 12-1 P.M.. Bought some gifts for a number of my friends, let's just see if I still have enough energy to deliver them to ya'll. Oh crap, I miss my car, I miss my computer, I miss my CSi: Miami series, I miss everything & everyone back in Malaysia!! Hopefully the car battery is successfully prevented from discharging by disconnecting it, or else I won't be able to start my car. Jumpstart? Zzz.. See ya'll back in Malaysia on 22/12/2008, my emo date. Huhu..

10,000 Nights

Second post, shall I talk about something more interesting? Hmm... Right, Alphabeat. Oh yes, it's been a long, long time since the last I introduced bands & singers to my readers. So does Alphabeat sounds familiar to any of you? It's a Danish pop band formed back in 2004, but their debut album is only recently released this year. They play & sing mainly 80s melodies, identical to ABBA, Modern English & BeeGees. Erm.. BeeGees counted as 80s? Argh whatever.

New band playing retro music, I like it. Here's 10,000 Nights, by Alphabeat.

Silent Night

Anyone in Christmas mood? Yeah yeah.. I know, I know.. I've missed 3 posts for 3 days, so I'm making it up to ya'll today, alright? 3 posts altogether in 1 day, just so that you guys won't kill me when I go back to K.L. tomorrow. Yeap.. Coming back home soon, dudes.

So, a review of Yes Man? Nahh that'll be too boring. Haha.. Just kidding. I can't remember the storyline already actually. xD

Short post, because I can't wait but to proceed to the next post.

Silent Night - Sarah Brightman, from her new album Winter Symphony. A must-have & must-play to enhance the mood for the coming Christmas celebrations.

Ham Kar Ling

Something very funny happened today. Ya' guys, those who are simply too free just like me that checks on the cinema movie listings every minute or so will definitely know about the latest Cantonese kung fu movie Ip Man. So my cousin and his wife decided to bring me along to the movie. Funny though, there's actually a movie, a comedy flick that's showing at the same time. Yeap, the one starring Jim Carrey as Carl Allen in Yes Man. I reminded my cousin AND the girl over at the counter not to mistaken the Ip Man with Yes Man. 3 times, 3 motherfucking times. And that slut still gave us tickets to Yes Man instead of Ip Man. We thought that 3 times of reminding is enough to avoid any mistakes, so we waited till 9:05 P.M. for the screening time. Waited till 9:10 P.M., the LED indicator on cinema 6 is still not illuminated yet, but patrons are allowed to enter cinema 3 for quite some time, & we're really frustrated about that. Checked the ticket and indeed, we we're given the wrong fucking tickets. Complained at the counter but that ignorant bitch just can't do anything about it as the tickets for Ip Man are completely sold out.

So, we had no choice but to wait & watch Yes Man at 9:40 P.M.. We we're given 11 complimentary tickets as refund to our 30-minute loss. Yes, 11 tickets. Watched Yes Man, and it was fantastic. Do not ever underestimate that movie as a money-wasting show; it's funny and inspirational at some point. I'll post up the review very soon as I can't do so now (blogging in a rush), but an early rating from me will be a staggering 4.95 out of 5. It is THAT good. I'm not kidding. Also, I might be blogging less often these few days, till I get back to Malaysia. I'll be back very soon, maybe around the 21st or 22nd of December, and I have my own reasons.

Ham Kar Ling, by LMF. Very obscene song in Cantonese, don't listen to it if you can't handle it.

Oh right, something from a Chinese newspaper; a guy was robbed at a cash deposit machine, and he fought the robber. He was slashed on his face, but he fought back with a motorcycle helmet, hitting the robber repeatedly on the head, causing injury & bleeding. As the robber was caught and the both of them were sent to the hospital. The victim received over 100 stitches, and the bad news isn't over yet for him. The robber's blood was tested & diagnosed HIV positive. So there is a possibility that blood transfer happened during the fight and the robbery victim might be infected with AIDS as well. So a word of advice from me; if you're approached by robber(s) (touchwood), just give them what they want. Life worth more than a couple hundred of ringgits or your thousand-ringgit watch. You won't know what will happen if you fight them.

I'd Come Back For You

Went to Choa Chu Kang Plaza for a movie last night, The Day The Earth Stood Still. It's not that good actually, didn't live up to my expectations. No, not at all. I was looking forward to something like The Day After Tomorrow, but some universal-degrader-metallic bugs let me down. Nevertheless, Keanu Reeves portrays a cool character. It's a shame how the movie is spoilt with a storyline without climax. There is a climax actually, at the very end of the timeline. Low ratings from me, possibly the lowest I've ever gave; 3.1 out of 5 stars. Any lower ratings than that from me, you'll know that it's not worth watching.

I won't bother to summarize the movie either, just go read it from any sort of movie review site, Wiki or such. It's a waste of time, totally.

I brought my camera with me of course, & took some pictures. Something happened at McDonalds after the movie, but I'll get back to that later. Let's start from the MRT station.

Petir Rd. station.

The MRT isn't really new to me, but I discovered something rather funny. Well, just like all other Malaysians, I'm so familiar with the RapidKL LRT service that the stereotype thought of all LRTs are on rails is blended together into my mind. Ya' guys see that? WHEELS!! The MRT is more like a network of buses running on a higher ground. I wonder what will the trams look like if 20-inch sport rims are fixed onto them? COOL!!

Yes, I was in a game shop. Quitting my gaming life doesn't mean that I can't visit game shops, right?

Games.

Games.

More games.

The game shop, from the entrance. I don't think a shop so 'concentrated' with games like this one is common in Malaysia, not to mention that they sell only genuine, ORIGINAL games. Wake up Malaysians, stop piracy. We all know that paying RM 100-200 for a game is absurd & only promotes pirated DVDs & CDs to be released, so why don't the government take a smarter move, bring down the price?

The cinema. Erm.. The focus is actually the black-dressed girl in the right corner of this picture, but zooming in & snapping only her picture will be too obvious & awkward. Ohh hottie, what are you doing here alone? xD

I tried hard to get this picture to compare the prices of food from one of the largest fast-food chain in the world, McDonalds. And then, this petite little young lady employee came up to me & said, "I'm sorry sir, but you're not allowed to take pictures in here.". I was like, huh?? Which law in the world of McDonalds that doesn't allow anyone to take picture in the premises? Interesting law, I'd say. I almost wanted to say it back in her face, "I'm sorry miss, you're hot & most probably would look good naked on my bed, makes a perfect fucking mate but no thanks, with that kind of attitude I'll have to pass.".

Alrite, although there are few more movie reviews that I wanna do, I fear I've been using the laptop for too long. So here's a song to end the post for today; I'd Come Back For You by Nickelback. Yep, from their latest album, Dark Horse.
