Halloween 2006 |
So I got invited to this Halloween party see. Well its on Friday the 13th, but close enough we get to dress up in costumes.
The problem is that I just don't have the startup time to put together a kickass cosplay outfit. So I've been trolling through the internet looking for costume rental places. Stupid I know given that this IS Malaysia. But I did find 3 places.
The first two are in Sri Hartamas, the rich part of town. I say rich because there's no LRT/Train going there, i.e. you need a car, BMW preferred, to go there.
The third was at Bangsar and it reeked. Horrible third class costumes, plus it was like the storage room of some dingy law firm. The worst part is they made us take our shoes off. I mean what the hell kind of business makes their customers take their shoes off to come in. I mean its fine if its a spa, but what the hell!! It was in a shophouse too. Idiots.
So now I found out that there is a costume place much closer to work in Ampang Plaza so I'm going to check it out in another 40 minutes. I believe they have a Freddy Kruger get up so I might take that in the end.
I'll be coming down mighty late tonight as I'll be going to see "The Devil Wears Prada" with a friend and then having dinner. Doesn't matter since we'll be going for DotA Saturday night right. Will call Warlock now. That's right, I'm calling him and no one can stop me!!!!! |

Walking on water
Three monks decided to practise meditation together. they sat by the side of a lake and closed their eyes in concentration. Then suddenly, the first one stood up and said, "I forgot my mat." He steeped miraculously onto the water in front of him and walked across the lake to their hut on the other side.
When he returned, the second monk stood up and said, "I forgot to put my the other underwear to dry." He too walked calmly across the water and returned the same way. The third monk watched the first two carefully in what he decided must be the test of his own abilities. "Is your learning so superior to mine? I too can match any feat you two can perform," he declared loudly and rushed to the water's edge to walk across it. He promptly fell into the deep water.
Undeterred, the yogi climbed out of the water and tried again, only to sink into the water. Yet again he climbed out and yet again he tried, each time sinking into the water. This went on for some time as the other two monks watched.
After a while, the second monk turned to the first and said, "Do you think we should tell him where the stones are?"

Hippies are banned in Malaysia ? |
Was browsing through a web page called Malaysia Travel Guide (http://www.malaysia-travel-guide.de/) and I came across this statement :
"Do not dress in any manner that may give the impression that you are a "hippie," as "hippies " are banned from the country."
Lolz.
How do you ban hippies from a country ? Is it really written in the law ? What happens when a hippie is caught being a hippy ? Can we report to the police that Salty Peanuts III is a hippy ? Maybe we will get to see video clips of him forced to do nude squats and laugh our asses off.
Awaiting for legal consultancy from Magnus.

Marvel : Ultimate Alliance |
Marvel : Ultimate Alliance
In the same vein as X-Men Legends , we have another spanking new Action RPG in the making. With more than 20 playable characters ranging from Spiderman to Ghost Rider , this game seems like a possible hit. Characters that are confimed so far are :
Wolverine, Captain America, Ghost Rider, Dr Strange, Thor, The Thing, The Human Torch, Spiderman, The Invisible Girl (Fantastic 4) and Blade.
Including the nemesis for all the heroes the game claims that it has 140 characters from the Marvel Universe (saw Dr Doom .. looks wicked !! I like .. ). From the trailers that I saw in Gamespot I am pretty sure the game should be nice (actually my jaw was dragging on the floor). There was part where the players were beating up some minions and Galactus was walking around in the background. I thought he was just a part of the backdrop when the Thing took a barrel and threw it a him ! As the barrel exploded against the giant Galactus I went .. COOL !!!
I'm drooling allready. The game is coming out for the X-Box 360, the PS 2 & 3 and Nintendo Wii and for the PC as well. The game supports multiplayer so get the damn multitap adapter ready ! Oh yeah, the game is made by Activision and Raven Software so it shouldn't be a sucky game (fingers crossed)
It's coming out on the 24th of October.
Here are some pics to drool over :) :

Ambi Mohan |
This post is obviously a follow up from Salty Peanuts III (aka SmokeyDesperado) I originally just wanted to comment in his post but after reading Magnus'es extra large and chunky post was inspired to write something more substantial , thus leading to this post.
The article that SP3 is reffering to is this :
(http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/nst/Thursday/Columns/20060921082747/Article/index_html)
Blogger to pay for lack of imagination
IN a case that will surely excite the netizens of Malaysia, a student is being charged for using only one emoticon in all of her blog entries.
Sasparilla Chen, 17, has been keeping a blog for the past year to record thrilling moments in her life such as her exam preparations, her on-off infatuation with a Thai VJ, and surprise birthday parties for her friends. Little did she know that her blog was being monitored by people other than her immediate "posse" — and this is where her troubles started.
Ambi Mohan, head of the popular Malaysian Linguistic Association (Malas), lodged a police report against Chen for always using only the standard smiley ( :) ) emoticon in each of her 28 blog entries. "I can’t believe she could be so lazy," says Ambi in his tastefully appointed office in Putrajaya. "Does she not know that keyboards can create many other emoticons such as the wink ( ;-) ) or the frown ( L )?"
"Yes, my association is now branching out into the Internet, although we don’t yet have a website," he continues. "My interest in the Internet started when my sister Anadil pointed out to me that Googling my name provided 40 hits! So it is now my duty to monitor linguistic usage on the Web."
On his specific beef against Chen, he says: "Using only one emoticon shows that she lacks an imaginative palette. It’s like a painter who only uses one colour. Surely such a painter will be rejected by the art world. But as blogs are not regulated by the government, such abuses are permitted to occur.
Like her entry on a celebrity’s wedding, which simply says, "She married a rich Datuk" and is followed by the smiley emoticon. Any fool can tell you that the proper emoticon should be a sad one ( :-< ) because any 17-year-old girl would surely be unhappy that yet another rich Datuk has been taken off the market!" Chen could not be reached for comment. It is understood that she has been so traumatised by the accusations against her that she has temporarily taken down her blog.

Amir Muhammad on Thursday: The merchandise way to make varsity famous 21 Sep 2006
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A NEW university being constructed in the verdant Air Bangar valley will be significant for one simple reason: Undergraduates will no longer be subjected to, well, subjects.
Acting CEO Reizal Mat Din says that the novel complex will instead give pride of place to a souvenir shop. "We are so used to hearing about famous universities like Yale and Oxford," he says.
"Well, the only reason these Western universities are famous is that they have very active merchandising departments. These run the gamut, from T-shirts and sandals to mugs and fridge magnets."
He adds that those foreign universities took decades, sometimes centuries, to establish a firm reputation in academia. "This is something that we simply don’t have time for. If we wait a few decades, I will be six feet under and will not have the opportunity to be granted a Datukship. This will put my children at a distinct disadvantage."
The entire campus of Air Bangar University (ABU) is thought to cost RM2 billion, with slightly over half of it devoted to the Souvenir Department. Aside from the expected items that can be bought even on foreign campuses, various other collectibles will be on sale.
"Wouldn’t it be nice if visitors can take home a robot?" he gushes. "Yes, your very own ABU mechanised creature, with very human features. These are being specially constructed for us in Taiwan, which has many good electronics graduates.
"Or how about a genetically engineered plant? It will be created in Singapore, home to many bright forestry and bio-engineering students. You can personalise these plants by making it look as if your face is emerging from the tree trunk. Of course, the ABU logo will be prominently displayed as well. This will be a great hit whenever you throw outdoor parties, provided you have a large enough garden."
Even the name of the university was the result of careful research by marketing people. "We wanted it to be in English so it can sound global," explains Reizal. "But the acronym ABU is a down-to-earth Malay name, so we managed to combine East and West. Other universities have attempted to do this in their academic curricula, for example by combining Nietzsche with Sun Tzu, but we will get straight to the point by, you know, selling you stuff."
But will the university still need undergraduates? "Of course!" is the hearty reply. "Who do you think will be selling all these items to tourists? The great thing is that, instead of paying them salaries, we will charge them tuition fees. Thousands of undergrads will work in shifts; they will be dressed in uniforms that combine the colour scheme of McDonald’s with the traditional motif of Selangor Pewter staff. Their parents will be so proud of the hands-on education that will prepare these boys and girls for the marketplace."
Applications will be taken from early next year. Instead of a bothersome exam to determine entry, candidates will be judged solely on how photogenic they are. "After all, those with a pleasing countenance will be more likely to inspire sales."
A complex of restaurants and cafes will be the other main feature of the campus. "We will be inviting many prestigious multi-nationals to open up food outlets here. Profits can be improved because the serving staff will actually pay the companies!"
He adds that old-school universities such as Cambridge and Harvard are at a distinct disadvantage.
"Why bother with boring books and data when our specially imported cash registers will never be silent? Foreign tourists can also take back these souvenirs to their home country, helping to promote Malaysia as a centre for educational excellence and imported merchandise."
He he .. by now you should realise that the posts were meant as jokes. (SP3 slaps forehead in dismay) Ha ha ha .. Salty Peanuts III fell for it !!!! Ambi Mohan doesn't exist and there is no MALAS .. no police report was filed. Ha ha .... (ROTFLMFAO) I was aware of this joke/satire column and was just waiting for SP3 to post about it so I can LAUGH AT HIM :P hahahaahhaahahahahahahahahaha .... (again ROTFLMFAO) ..

New Straits Times 04 May 2006 Amir Muhammad
Linguists call for ‘Da Vinci Code’ ban
THE Malaysian Linguistic Association (Malas) has echoed calls by other parties to ban the controversial movie The Da Vinci Code.
The film is an adaptation of a best-selling novel that deals with some aspects of the Christian faith. But the objection by Malas has nothing to do with theology because "we don’t even know who Theo is", says its president Ambi Mohan.
The association’s chief objection is, instead, linguistic.
"For too long we have sat by and allowed language to be polluted but we have decided that enough’s enough. The Da Vinci Code should be banned because we don’t want to encourage youngsters to use ‘da’ as a lazy shorthand for ‘the’.
"We see this in rap lyrics," he claims.
"All this talk about ‘hanging out with da hoes’. You should be hanging out with THE hoes. This sort of begs the question of why someone would want to ‘hang out’ with gardening implements to begin with, but I am not here to question lifestyle choices, merely spelling, grammar and semantics."
He said the association might reconsider its protests if the filmmakers changed its name to The The Vinci Code.
"But even this is problematic because having two ‘thes’ in a row look ugly. So the film should be called The Vinci Code."
The film’s producers could not be reached for comment.

Linguists seek Harry Potter ban
FRESH from its controversial call to ban The Da Vinci Code (NST, May 4), the Malaysian Linguistic Association (Malas) is once more taking aim at a pop-cultural institution be- loved of bourgeois readers.
Its president Ambi Mohan wants the final Harry Potter book banned. What’s unusual about this is that the book has yet to be published! The seventh and last instalment of British writer J.K. Rowling’s franchise about a boy wizard is due out only in July 2007 and does not even have a confirmed title yet.
"There’s nothing wrong with asking for something to be banned before we can fully ascertain its contents," he says while adjusting his trademark bow-tie. "This read-before-you-judge concept is very Eurocentric and not suited to our tropical climate."
The association’s objection to Harry Potter is not merely linguistic this time, but in the interest of national security.
"As a patriotic Malaysian, it is my duty to speak up," he says. "My sister Anadil, who attended a charity dinner hosted by an anti-drug foundation, told me that ‘pot’ is slang for marijuana. Therefore I suspect that Harry’s surname of Potter indicates that he is a drug addict. Potter means he specialises in pot, just as a ‘fighter’ is someone who fights and ‘forester’ someone who deals with forests. You’d need to be a linguist to figure this out."
Ambi confirms that he has no solid evidence to back this claim "but the data that we have is highly persuasive. Only a drug addict would imagine he is a wizard who can fly and disappear and perform magical tricks.
These things cannot happen in reality as they defy the laws of Physics, which I studied at secondary school. Also his initials are HP which can stand for Hemp Promotion."
He has another theory. "The reason why this final Harry Potter book is shrouded in mystery is that the author does not want to reveal its drug content. She knows this will cause the book to be banned in Malaysia (a very important market for the books) so she is keeping quiet.
I think the final book will reveal that Harry gets his amazing powers by smoking ganja, tooting on joints and firing up doobies!" he says and starts to giggle uncontrollably.
Rowling and her publisher could not be reached for comment although we really tried.

Girl Charged For using ONE SMILIE!!!! |
Last Thursday or so( i dont remember what day) i came across a very amusing and funny report in the NST. A 17-year-old girl was charged for... no not stealing or commiting murder or such but for using ONE FREAKING SMILIE IN HER FREAKING BLOG!!!!! This joker by the name of Ambi Mohan who claimed that he was the president of the Malaysian Linguitics Assosiation Society, Malas (check out the initials) lodge a police report charging the girl for using this smilie only, :) in her blog. I seriously cant believe that someone actually lodge a report for this offence. Its no wonder the majority of Malaysians such as Ambi are PC illiterate. Come to think of it i dont think Malas actually existed in the first place (guys comment on this one). So bloggers beware. NEVER EVER USE ONE SMILIE ONLY WHEN YOU ARE BLOGGING. To be safe from the clutches of fanatic morons like Ambi use at least two smilies. And just in case you are wondering, that poor girl is now so traumatised that she doesnt want to blog anymore. And also if you are wondering why I'm using red fonts, well..... MY FREAKING WISH LA!!!! I bet that now the police are laughing their asses off. If i were to meet Ambi in person i'll tell him to GET A FREAKING LIFE!!!!!! There you go, my short and definitely NOT sweet post for your viewing pleasure. Comments are most certainly welcome. Amen. |

My Rant, My suffering, My Rage, My incompetent tech staff |
MONDAY 25th September 2006
I was in the midst of typing an extremely long and poignant post when my PC rebooted and I lost everything. Sigh. Why is it I never learn to save every few minutes.
Since I'm too lazy now to retype all of that the rest of you will have to put up with a far less exotic post for today, mostly just random, coffee fueled, Monday morning rants.
Its quite disenchanting to actually lie on the bench and realised the horrible truth that you can only bench press 40kgs when you could do 70kgs before. I suppose that for most of this year I managed to convince myself that I wasn't really that weak even though I'd neglected exercising. I guess it all went downhill when I visited my fiancee in Deceber/January 2005/2006 and ate one too many american breakfasts (trust me, the monstrous servings will keep you full till dinnertime).
How did it come to this? I guess like most people I became adept at making excuses.
***Reboot #3***
Yup the computer rebooted again. As you can tell I'm not getting much work done today. I wonder what you guys think about meeting people online. I mean what your opinion on the appropriateness of looking for someone to go out with. I think it reeks. Its fine if you meet people in like forums on your particular interests. Say I'm into anime and I frequent forums on the subject and I meet someone who happens to live in KL and we form a friendship/relationship. I think this is fine.
On the other hand, I think its terrible to go looking for dates online like sweeping through Friendster or chatting with people you've never met before on MSN or Yahoo Messenger. I'm not intentionally trying to be unkind or judgemental, but if you're such a pussy that you can't walk up and talk to a woman in real life that you only have the nerve to do so online where you can pretend to be something you're not, just give up. Meeting girls online is for paedophiles and perverts. You know that it's all going to collapse anyway once you actually meet each other since she'll realise you're a socially inept twerp, or that you're a rapist soliciting victims.
Its not that hard to meet people if you just take the chance. Sure every girl or guy yu talk to isn't going to want to go out, but all you need is for one to say yes. So my question is this. What do the rest of you think about guys/girls that try to meet people to go out with online? Be brutal. Be honest. POST COMMENTS NOT SHOUT OUTZ.
***Reboot #4***
Looks like the tech staff here are going for a server breakdown record. The worst part is I can't access the net to see if I received a bonus. At least I could pay off my massive credit card debt in one fell swoop. Buying a smartphone is not a cheap endeavour. I think its a waste of money for most people since regular phones now have music and game playing functions already. Still its wonderful!!! I managed to download a program that let me convert my music videos into 3gp files to play on my mobile phone. One music video on a 3.5mB file. Everyone's jealous since I can carry the Pussycat Dolls and Rihanna wherever I go, although I do get stares on the LRT.
***Reboot #5*** ***Reboot #6*** ***Reboot #7***
I'm about to take this piece of crap computer and fling it out of the 80th floor. I know its a problem with the server, but I still want to kill my terminal. Its like how UPM graduates are the result of years of indoctrination and lack of education, but I still want to take a 2 by 4 to their heads instead of resolve the problems in the system. Human nature I gues ;)
Speaking of computer problems, do any of you know how to make a reinstall disc or whatever that I can pop into my computer and just redo
***Reboot #8*** Offices servers + inept staff = high blood pressure for Magnus
So do any of you know how to make such a disc. I really need to reformat and reinstall but I don't have the discs, and I don't want to pay 60-80 bucks such to get some high school dropout Low Yatt boy to do it for me. So Warlock, Siriuz or Sai, if any of you can help me out with this I see free food at our regular mamak in your future.
***Reboot #9*** This time I got the black screen of death and had to turn off the power since there's no reset button.
Well I give up. Looks like there's not going to be any progress today on my end so I'm going out for an early lunch and hopefully they'll have resolved this nonsense by the time I get back.
-----------------------------------------------
Apparently my PC only reboots when I'm using it. The network is still messed up today. I ate so much I feel like I'm about to explode. I imagine this would be like a real life "Rupture" will take more damage if I move around. I dread going back home today, the first working puasa day means there'll probably be frenzied mobs to starved maniacs trying to get home in time to eat.
At least I finally bought my Celcom prepaid pack. Now I can test out the quality of the 3G in my area, if good then I'll stick with it since it works great in the office. Only thing is testing my net speed, I guess I'll have to try Jaring, the program I have to check net speed is called Netpersec but I need to be using the net to download shit to do the speed test and at 1sen per kilobyte that'll cost a whole lot. I'll miss my DiGi though, got 200kBps speeds most nights.
Would it be considered bullemia if I threw up now just avoid feeling this bloated?
Another problem I'm having these days it that there's too much entertainment. Yup I said it. Its just too much that I can't keep track of it anymore. I need like an entertainment manager to tell me what movies I should go see/buy/download because I'm totally lost. Music is not that hard, just go to Yahoo music and see what the top singles are, but keeping track of movies is damn near impossible unless I keep a log, same with anime as well, besides Naruto I just don't know what to go after anymore. At least there's the joyous consistency of DotA, its always fun win or lose and its not expensive for a once a week activitiy. Clubbing and most other stuff is painfully expensive and I'm supposed to be saving so I can't partake in those. Sad I know.
I guess this means that my trip next weekend to Sabah for a week will be my last big hurrah. Plan to do quite a bit and eat quite a lot, but after today I think I'm going to slice all my meals in half no matter how hungry I am.
I guess this is starting to sound like a dear diary entry isn't it. Well I apologise but I've got nothing much to do so I'm typing what comes to mind.
Speaking for which, as I said in Shout Outz we should do DotA at Warzone on Friday night if possible. I can make Saturday but its a bit
***Reboot #10*** ***Reboot #11***
troublesome to have it at night on Saturday, so let's try for morning. I won't be around for the weekend after as I'll be off in merry old Sabah partaking in all kinds of reckless suicidal acts. Might stop by the weekend after since I arrive on friday the 13th (oooo scary!!) I might just head to Seremban instead of KL.
The only wrench in the works will be if my KL friends want to do stuff. I've been neglecting them lately so I would probably just go to KL then. Still 90% of my KL friends are people that don't seem to do much beyond go to mamak and smoke or go to snooker centres and smoke. Its quite sad but its how things are here, I need to track down the people that actually live their lives instead of running home to mommy the minute work is over and sleeping in on weekends (props to those who go out with their girlfriends/boyfriends on weekends).
The rest just need help. I mean we're young, we're supposed to be adventurous and living life to the full, this kind of behaviour and attitude is something you should be saving for retirement. Well I guess I can't force my beliefs on others like
***Reboot #12***
AAAAARGH!!!! When I find the guy in charge of our network I'm going to cut his head off, scoop out the insides and give it to his mother as a vase!!!
So about the whole lifestyle thing. Haven't we all watched movies, anime, read books or comics and wished our lives could be half as exciting. I'm not talking mutant powers here (although I wish to God/Satan for magnetokinesis) or battles with supervillains. I mean trips, friends, parties, romance, taking chances, going places, adventure. Doesn't anyone crave adventure anymore? I'm not talking reckless nonsense like quitting your job and trekking accross Vietnam. Its the experiences that everyone seems to crave yet consistently avoids experiencing. They choose instead a life of watching TV and playing games (of which I once again have been guilty of on many occasions). But I think there comes a time when we have to realise that WE are the reason our lives are dull and mundane.
Well, at least dull and mundane by comparison to what we want to experience deep down. To ride a galloping horse accross vast plains, to duel with swords, to enter a cooking competition, to find and defeat adversaries on the streets or in the office. To take chances with love even though we may risk a friendship or look foolish in the process, or even suffer terrible heartbreak and loss.
I remember back in college days there we're people like this, always too busy studying, reviewing lessons, reading textbooks, prepping for exams. I can truly say without a shadow of a doubt that all of them are not better off that I am in the real world now that we have graduated. In fact they're much worse. My entire life in college consisted of going to clubs/parties/movies/golfing/badminton/trips to various islands/skipping classes to go shopping/arguing at various coffee shops about various things. All the people that cloistered themselves up did pass their exams in the end of course, but what was gained? They wasted their lives. Onle on girl actually got fantastic results and she was almost never around for classes anyway.
The worst part is these bookworms can't make it in working life. They have no critical thinking. In the real world there's no cramming sessions or cloistering yourself up to study for exams. Every single day is an exams. But these clowns threw their youth, the SPRINGTIME OF YOUTH!!!!!! Wasted. I have no regrets. Sure maybe if I had studied harder I would have got 10 marks more in some papers, but so what, I would never have had all those wonderful times that I did back then.
I need to find people to SWEAT THE SWEAT OF YOUTH WITH ME!!!! Sorry, been watching too much Naruto. The second Naruto Movie was crap, well okay the final battle was crap, the rest of it was pretty alright.
Still even things like college changes after awhile. Once everyone graduated it was basicaly the beginning of the end. Everyone started socialising with their office mates during lunch and avoided going out for the most part. And so the dreariness of adulthood set in. I ask myself why people would do this, don't they want to spread their wings? This is why most people never become successful or rich, any plant needs sunlight, nutrients. Putting yourself in a dark corner and cutting off from the world just destroys all your potential. Plus your prospects on the working world just get worse, since everyone knows its not what you know, its who you know. You can't study contacts, you make them.
Well the network's still on life support so I can't post this yet. You know I just thought about something Arc wrote in his last post and its kind of a weird paradox but here goes. People panic and worry about living their lives only when the doctor tells them that they are dying, yet we are all of us dying, minute by minute we edge closer to our own inescapable demise. Yet the mind creates for itself all manner of risks and consequences to avoid living that life in the manner we desire. So we walking sacks of decomposing flesh shamble about, our strings pulled by everyone but ourselves. There are zombies, the living dead in this world, just turn to the person next to you and you will see this truth, painful as it is to contemplate.
We each supposedly need 8 hours of sleep, and with a typical 9-6 workday we have roughly 7 hours to do what we wish. 7 hours a day, 67 hours a week (I didn't consider work hours for the weekends). 3484 hours a year, yet people don't have the time to forge friendships, to live life, to party and revel on this great rollercoaster........yet they have time to watch American Idol. In the next 10 years of your life you have approximately 1450 days of absolute free time, that's 4 whole years to do whatever YOU please AND have 8 hours to sleep. Tell me again about how you don't have time. In the end it doesn't matter to me, but it should matter to you.
Oh I went to see the movie "Ghost Game" last Friday. Its a Thai horror movie and all of you should give this one a miss since it wasn't scary at all. Plus some stupid girl in the back kept overreacting, turning it into a comedy instead.
I'm also playing "Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones" again after a very long sabbatical from ym XboX thanks to rudecrudedude coming down from Ireland for 3 months. I think I might just play X-Men Legends 2 again, I miss tossing people around as Magneto. I wish there was some code I could use to let me control Apocalypse. Seems there is for the PC version though.
I feel so stifled right now. I can't work. I can't surf the net. I can't read my book because some nosy idiot might walk by.
Well this is it. I'm done for the day, the brain has emptied itself out.
TUESDAY 26th September 2006
Well in as much as I know you're probably bored out of your mind reading so far, its the next day for me and the computers and servers are I believe suffering from computer menopause. The equipment here is so outdated that I suppose this has been a long time coming, and what's worse, now that the fasting month is upon us the tech staff run away at 4pm.
To top it all off I've been getting the standard "You not fasting ah" plus stupid smiles. Or the "Just try lah" plus stupid smile. I don't go around asking them to "just try" some bacon. I suppose there is no malice in this, but its the retardation of these comments that really get on my nerves. *Sigh* Maybe I'm being too testy because of the computer. Nothing like a faulty PC to really drive me up the wall.
On the plus side I managed to test out the Celcom 3G connection speed and I get 300kbps at home and it works like a charm at the office as well, plus its at least twice as fast as my DiGi plan. So time to cancel the old DiGi plan and sign up with UMNO owned Celcom. I feel like a sellout, but hey, Magnus needs his internet, and downloading porn at twice the speed is worth losing a little moral integrity over.
I wonder what's been happening on the blog lately..Hope you guys are a bit more enthusiastic about posting comments these days.
FINALLY!!!! The computer problem has been solved, thus marking the demise of this post. My thanks for bearing through with me and my pain all this while. |

Ethical frustrations |
During my time serving the insignificantly ill, I have discovered a few enlightening facts about the current status of the human social relations of the local society. Normally, when a patient comes, one is oblidged to respond to their needs and complains in the kindest manner and treat them to the best of their interests. One would not only relief their current agravation, but be caring enough to inform them of other potential risks to their already short and pitiful lives. As a result, they get infuriated at the notion that there's something far more dangerous within them gnawing at the very essence of their life. So... fine. Ignorance is bliss as they say. All is fine. One does as society dictates. Then comes the returning patient that is infuriated for not being informed of other life threatening illnesses deeply seated within them when they came for treatment of some insignificant illness in the ages long since passed. And now it is to late. Doom is upon them. And sorrow creeps all over the one burdened by the imminent loss of another's life. A sorrow so great it threathens to fill ones heart and comsume ones soul entirely. And so one thinks to ones self... But, But, How is this MY Fault? The confusion that lies within society in its entirety is mind boggling. There is no right answer. There is no thruth. All is a shade of grey. All foggy and bewildering. So now what? What does one do? Personally, I turn to the great minds that founded the very basis of reality itself. The creators of the Matrix. Yes, that is right. Your eyes fool you not. What you just read is true. It is the Matrix. The answer lies deep within the very fabric of its creation(oh ok, actually I just picked a few lines from the movie). You see, now when a patient comes along, I would diagnose their condition and then before telling them anything at all, I would ask them a very crucial question. A choice is to be made. I would say..... "Make a choice. The blue pill or the red pill. Take the blue pill and when this is done(meaning when the anesthetics wares off), you'll wake up and everything will be fine. Take the red pill and I'll show you how deep the rabbit holes really goes(meaning I'll tell them how ill they really are and how soon they're gonna die, oh and when's the best time to tell their loved ones goodbye and goodridance)". So then, with that, all problems are solved. Those who wants to know will know. And those who don't will be forever left in the comfort of their dark little corner of the world. Forever oblivious of the coming tragedy and their imminent mortal end. And so the world continues on. The sun continues to rise and set. The flowers continues to bloom and wither. And I continue to feel all warm and fuzzy inside, knowing that I have done wholesome good to both the intelectuals and fools alike. Mua ha ha ha ha ha!!! |

P2P user evil? Read this! |
Just read the forum about the User Group Meeting. A shocking figure in the site mention 13% of users use 72% of the bandwidth load, with the bulk of traffic expectedly coming from P2P services.
Now after reading this a lot of people will say p2p users is evil and use up most of the bandwidth. But is it true? Now let's us do a logic thinking. Can a p2p user steal others user bandwidth? When a user subscribe a 1 mbps line can he get 2 mbps line? No he can not. He can only use 1 mbps. Then how come 13% users can use up 72% of the bandwidth load? Very simple.
Imagine there is cake that is divided into 17 pieces (17GB). Then 100 people come and buy the cakes. 13 people take 13 peices away so there is only 5 pieces left for 87 people. Is it enough? of course not. Then the shopkeeper say "Just now the 13 people take 72% of the cake away! They are the thief!". Is it fare to the 13 people? of course not! They just eat what they paid. This is what happen to Tmnet now. Tmnet oversell their product. Keep on selling until they forgot they have a limitation bandwidth. When problem of slow connection, they blame the high usage users and that group of users mainly are p2p users.
I won't mind a company ban their employee to use p2p, a campus ban the students to use p2p because to the user is foc. But for the Tmnet case, that is just not fair. I paid RM88 for unlimited access, and when I use it 24/7 I be blame for using up the bandwidth. This is stupid and this is suppose to come out from a CEO of a broadband provider company. I don't know how you all feel when your p2p is running slow but my p2p is running very very slow started from tuesday and I getting very very angry. What is the right they have to stop me having what i paid for? The only right is Tmnet is monopoly the market. They can do whatever they want.
What Tmnet should do is putting the rules when customer subscribe. 1. Do not use p2p software. This service is provide mainly for surving purpose only. 2. Please do not download anything from the Internet. If you force to, please limit the download speed to 5kB. Any further than that will surely harm our bandwidth. 3. Please do not do streaming 4. make sure the surving per day is not more than 3 hours. It is harmful to your eyes if you facing the monitor more that 3 hours per day and this will give the bandwidth to others user also.
STUPID! |

Malaysian Broadband SUCKS!!! Go to Hell TMNet |
I suggest all of you pay a visit to the Screenshots Blog in the Friendy Blogs section of this blog.
So Telekom Malaysia's/TMNet's excuse for shitty service is that 13% of users are hogging 73% of all bandwidth thus establishing that their bullshit service is the fault of the customers!!!
Oh them evil P2P users.
So we pay for a 1mbps connection, we pay for UNLIMITED ACCESS, we pay them close to a hundred bucks each month. We get 700kbps on a good day. TMNet blames us for their crappy service. What a bunch of fuckholes. Yes I called them fuckholes because that's what they are.
This is what happens when there's no competition. They even have the nerve to call it broadband.
I could rant, but I wont. What can we really do about it in the end? Government controlled monopolies don't care about customers or churning out a good product. We can't desert the company in droves because our wonderful protectionist policies have created a situation where there's no viable competition. Its this or live without the internet.
Malaysia Boleh!!!!!!! |

Silent Hunter 3 and Chicks |
Aite .. I've been playing a submarine simulation game. Sounds sad, I know. The truth is , I was playing Disgaea 2 originally .. a totally kick ass game. Absolutely loved it until the curse of Atlus games plagued me. The game froze at one part and I couldn't do anything to progress it, at this point I am hoping that the problem was caused by a DVD defect and that it is unlike my problem with Disgaea 1 (same problem , couldn't finish the game)
Now, back to the sub simulation , Silent Hunter III. It started off boring as most of the time you just sit in your chair and issue commands to your commanding officers. I was about to quit playing and totally uninstall the game when I decided to try out a remake of a historical skirmish.
My sub was submerged at periscope depth and moving at 1/3 speed with engines rigged for silence. I raised the periscope and in the distance I saw the flotilla of doom. 3 destroyer class ships were escorting a few battleships. I know that I had to get the battleships ... it was a matter of pride. I slowly made my way towards the convoy and lined up my sub at a 90 degrees angle to the starbord side of the second battleship. With bated breath I awaited for a firing solution and when the moment was right I fired a salvo of torpedoes at the battleship.
Immediately the flotilla came to life. Pinging sounds started to be heard and a few loud rhytmic sound of the destroyers started to move towards me. With my decent 5.1 surround speakers I really enjoyed the experience of listening as the ominous sound started to get closer and closer.
Suddenly, I heard splashes in the water. Depth charges ! I quickly ordered my crew to dive the sub. Explosions after explosions rocked the sub as I manuevered behind one of the destroyers. Using the engine wake to disguise my sub's own accoustic signature I stalked the destroyer. Everything was going according to plan as I flooded my torpedo tubes to try to finish off the crippled battleship that I attacked earlier. I was about to press the fire button when I realise that it was quiet .. too quiet. The battleships had cut power to their engines and my sub was chugging along making enough noise for them to lock in on me .. as depth charges landed one after another my sub sank into the deep of the ocean.
I got hooked on the game.

Dear Slim Jim ,
Thank you for being our first troll. It is nice to see that even a site like this can attract troll. Was thinking of importing more trolls (clones of Salty Peanuts III) but they probably won't post anything anyway and just end up raping the Shout Out box. I was surprised by your fascination with chicks, but it is probably a Singaporean thing. Coming from a third world country we get pictures of chicks quite easily , I have posted one for your viewing pleasure below .. enjoy. No thanks neccessary.

Metamorphosis: Stage 2 |
Well the whole wake up an exercise plan fell apart today. Went to sleep at 9:30pm yesterday, but just couldn't bring myself to wake up at 5am, wound up snoozing till 6am. Still, at least I managed to accomplish sleeping early instead of staying up till 12 watching "Black Adder" episodes.
Fortunately, the first week is going better than I have hoped. It's fruit smoothies for dinner today. I so need a blast of vitamins, all that maggi goreng and roti canai has left me suffering every known vitamin defficiency. Plus just so the rest of you know, lack of vitamins also contributes to obesity and pudginess.
Its already Thursday and my plans to watch a movie today fell apart. Might still go catch a flick tomorrow if I can get a couple of my KL friends to meet up. Its going to be a pretty dull weekend without my brother around or kicking DotA booty, so I'm settling for quiet mornings sipping coffee in front of the TV and a double dose of pumping iron on both Saturday and Sunday.
Ideally, Stage 3 will commence once I can do bicep curls with 10kg weights (right now I'm stuck down there at 5kgs, sad I know) and at least bench press 40 kilos (now stuck at 30 although I suppose I should be trying for more.
Stage 1 was over once I actually decided to do something instead of reminisce about the good old days and make excuses about why I didn't have time. I have a feeling Stage 3 will be a long time coming, probably some time later in November. Its important not to rush these things, most people go too far when they're starting up and get demoralised from lack of results (true results take months) or injure themselves.
*Sigh* Another day at the office, another 10 hour day (I minused an hour for lunch). I want to go home, but then its not like that will help since the work will just pile up if I do. Its especially annoying because I know that if I were to just stay an extra 2 hours for a week, and then promptly complete new assignments immediately, I'd have tons of free time at work. However, lots of free time at work equals extremely slow days since its not like I can go around town during office hours just because I've completed my work.
I like Angels & Demons so far, the book is interesting to say the least. I will return your books soon Warlock.
Not much else is new in the world of Magnus. My fiancee was telling me that I could apply to do my PhD in the USA instead of doing a Masters, although I worry that my Graduate Degree and work experience really isn't sufficient to qualify. Startin the application process this weekend as well.
Damn I need a flickr account, then I could just take lots of pictures and have them linked up with this blog. No mood for that now though. *Hack*Hack* The super-thick haze in KL is killing me, yet the bloody kampung people keep burning their shit in my housing area. Are they so stupid they don't see the connection? I guess that was a rhetorical question |

Erm... couldn't think of anything funnier. Will do better next time! |

Campus Elections |
Ah ... today in the National University Of Malaysia, campus elections will be held. We shall rejoice as we watch the beautiful process of Malaysian Democracy. I say Malaysian Democracy because of the slightly different way the University handles it. First of all if you go to the main voting centre (Pusanika) you will see that everything is as a proper democratic voting should be.
Then we move on to the University hostels. These hostels requires that all of its inhabitants vote at the hostel itself. Now for the part that is really interesting and different from normal democracy, the collage will list out your voting slip / ballot number and then ask you to vote. What this means is that the people in the collage will later check back to see who you voted for. Perposterous, you say ? The story gets better.
If you did not vote for the pro-University party , you get kicked out of the hostel, of course offically on paper you are kicked out by "random" selection. Here is the even more fun part, if you feel that it is not fair and you did not vote at all as a sign of protest .. guess what ? Yup, you still get kicked out ... so whether you like it or not , vote for the pro-establishment faction in the University. To hell with your right to vote.
Now for people like me , getting kicked out of the hostel isn't a bad thing. I could only stand staying at a University hostel for my 1st semester only. I like my freedom. Unfortunately for most UKM students, they find the hassle of finding a place to live and to arrange transportation to come and go to classes and thus are cowed and end up voting for who the University wants them to.
Of course it isn't all bad. If you win , depending on how many votes supporting the pro-university were cast, your hostel will get either a TV or a toaster or such appliances.
And that ladies and gentlemen, in a nutshell, is the status of campus election in UKM nowadays. We shall know soon whether this trend will end or will the university maintain this corrupt practice. Sad .
Only one more thing that makes me even more depressed then this. The fact that these kind of unfairness is not covered in the news or TV or even in other blogs. There is nothing being done to stop this and when someone writes about it , it is covered up and made into harmless rumour.
Sigh ... |

A long long time ago..... |
Greetings y'all! Been a long time since I last posted. Been rather busy with work. It seems there's a lot of new mysterious bloggers on board. Ok, maybe mysterious only to me. Either way, welcome to all. Saw all the latest photos on flicker. Cool! Although,... why so much food... and plants? Hmm..... Only one other comment... Magnus, I know what you mean. Heh heh! Checked out encyclopedia dramatica. Man what site. Think its my new favourite site. No word will ever be the same again. Heh heh! Too bad the pictures are kinda slow to load though. Well, they're slow here anyway. Almost got myself an internet line a few days back. Its super fast. Kinda like 400kbps average. One huge problem though. It requires a phone line. And I got no line. It may sound simple. Why not just get a phone line, you might say. Well, over here, there's like a one year waiting period. Crap!!! So close yet so..... Finally got the english version of Dirge of Cerberus. Nice! Love the cut scenes. Then again I've always been a sucker for FF CGI's. Heh heh! Anyway, the action is good but still no where near DMC or GOW. Why don't they make more games like that? Sigh! So, anyone tried DoC yet? How about FF12? I'm still waiting for the english version here. So long............... Just got Xenosaga 3. Finally, gonna end the longest rpg epic ever. Hmm... now to find a way to slip soul sucking rpg time into my busy work schedule. Where there's a will... well, you know the rest. Muahahaha! Hey, anyone watched Dragon Tiger Gate yet? Finally got the clear DVD here. Absolutely loved it. So what if a can't understand chinese and the subtitles here suck so bad I don't actually know what the heck the story was about, I still enjoyed it. Fighting action fan all the way. Ha ha ha! Raya holidays coming soon, but unfortunately I can't go back. Swamped with too much work. Even during holidays. Damn! Hopefully will make it back around christmas. Looking foward to more... DOTA!!! Also looking foward to meet the newest and only female Dota player. Welcome on board Kavi. Can't wait to kil'... uh... I mean... have a nice wholesome healthy friendly non-violent honourable match with you. Ahem! Ok then. That's all for today. Now I must withdraw back to ancient civilization. Cheers y'all!!! |

Metamorphosis |
So now that my brother has finally left the country, I am determined to place my focus on returning to the days of might and glory long since past.
I have been neglecting both my physical and mental development to pursue endless weekends of DotA. However that must now come to an end as I pursue prowess of the mind and body.
Shed not tears for my my loyal DotA crew for I have not forsaken you, my journeys to Seremban will still take place, although sporadically. Yet I am still an exhibitionist at heart, so I must tell you what I will be doing.
I will be focusing on work more, which in Asian terms means staying late at the office. There's a lot to do both contemporary and procrastinated which I must now get through. Furthermore, my needs for good references forces me to put on a stylised show of hard work, well it won't be a show I guess since I'll be in fact working.
An increase in exercise is definately overdue. While my brother was down I indulged in an orgy of eating. This consumption and lack of sufficient exercise over the past six months or so has resulted in weakness and flab. I want my six-pack back. I miss being stronger that I am now. I want to be able to bench press my own body weight again.
So the plan is to furiously work out on most days of the week. Unlike women, I will not succumb to the madness of dieting. High quality food is a must both to cut down on fat and increase muscle size. However, starvation to lose weight is retardation at its most dangerous level. All you females reading this need to start jogging instead of whining about your weight, starving yourself on salads (conveniently drenched in high-fat dressing) and then scarfing down pizza and ice-cream on the weekends. I plan to actually gain weight though, which is about as difficult for me as it is for an obese person to lose weight.
I have also commenced with the reading of "Angels & Demons" today in a vain attempt to spur the growth of my vocabulary. While I do still intend to play video games, this activity will most likely be reserved for the weekends.
Life as a pauper will become my new motto. Sadly, even though I have a full time job, I live merely 700 ringgit above the poverty line in Kuala Lumpur. My pressing need to boost my non-existent savings will begin now, hopefully with a bonus this month, but I can only hope. Will not be going out clubbing with perhaps one exception for the rest of the year. So life in KL will basically be movies and occasionally stalking Kavi. A cup of brewed coffee at a cafe is still a must, at elast one a week.
The good news it that I still have one extravagant plan for October. I will be going to Sabah on the 6th of October for the first and most likely the last time in my life. I will be staying for a week and will partake in lobster, white water rafting, parasailing and the climbing of the mountain. If I make it back alive I will see the rest of you the following weekend.
Oh this excitement is killing me, so much to do and so little time. I can already feel my psycho power welling up inside me. Now I must pull out of cyberspace and return to the Makai (also known as the office). |

Magnus Returns!!! |
My brief trip to outer space has sadly revealed that no remnants of my homeworld Krypton exist, and so I have returned to my adoptive world to discover two recent developments.
Military Coup in Thailand
Now who didn't see this one coming? At least its happened without a hail of bullets, shock and awe or virgin deprived exploding soldiers. If it does degenerate into that you can bet thousands of refugees will flow through the porous Malaysian-Thai border, and we will have trouble on our hands.
I'm not quite sure how I feel about this yet. I know I don't care if thousands of Thais kill or get killed, but I worry that this will dampen investments in the region. Mind you Malaysia doesn't get much in the way of foreign investment these days so it might actually be a good thing i.e. money gets diverted to us now to make a few more metally handicapped people with political contacts rich. Although I'm willing to bet it would just be diverted to China instead.
Let's see how this unfolds.
Pope pisses off Muslims
Well I suppose we are overdue for another round of our middle east friends throwing tantrums. So the Pope quoted the words of some Bazantine emperor besmirching the Prophet blah blah blah.
Forget the apology, forget that he repeatedly stressed that the words weren't his own, forget that this was a speech primarily directed at the west on how religion and reason cannot be separated. (By the way, I do think that someone as intelligent as Pope Benedict, or as intelligent as claimed anyway, should have realised that this would offend muslims. I mean he knew what his speech would say in advance)
Forget all that other stuff and consider how stupid it is to expect the head of a religious order, that propagates that it is the one true religion, the one path to god and heaven. His very position in Catholicism dictates that he must be of the opinion that ALL OTHER RELIGIONS ARE WRONG!!! That's right!! Of course the Pope thinks Islam is rubbish, he should also think that other religions accept the one he practices are rubbish. Don't tell me the true practitioners of the religion of peace don't go around saying catholicism is rubbish and try to execute their own when they convert.
So naturally the protests start. At least it wasn't as bad as it was with those Danish cartoons. So here's my 2 cents:
- The Pope either intended to offend muslims, or he is stupid.
- Idiots that get all pussied up whenever someone offends their 'religious sensitivities' need to go get jobs or go kill themselves to be closer to their god.
- You can't appease people who are determined to be angry, you only delay the inevitable, so just tell them to go fuck themselves (note this applies to all aspects of life, really).
Aside from that, the world continues to remain the same, and I continue to remain irritated with it. |

Anyways.... Hola ya'll.. yess i do sense the words "shouldnt you be studying" but its been such a stressful week, i just need a few mins of blogging... just got home from a friends house .. 'study group',we call it.. only that her sister was interupting every 10 minutes... -.-
as you can see, the pictures show SOAPS.. yes, SOAPS! we made soap for chemistry and after the lesson,me and my lab partner, Jolene, started messing with the soap... giving it shapes.. (ours is the darkest purple... unique,right :P)and before we knew it, all our classmates were putting their crushed soaps on our tables, asking me and Jolene to design them..much to our pleasure,actually..we love to do things like this..
yes, our colour was the darkest because we abused the usage of the colouring.. teacher specifically said "ONLY TWO DROPS" but me and Jolene put 20 drops... yes, 20.. (we like to break rules) but the colour turned out amazing! and talking abt breaking, i broke a measuring cylinder and had to pay 2 bucks for it.. sheesh..

Just read a interesting post at lowyat.net. The title is "If Zeus gets maried to Lina.~?? " then you should get a hybrid hero. Very funny. Got some other married going on like skeleton king and Queen of Pain, drow ranger and bone fletcher. The forum address:
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=327105 The Art of Devil. Not something you want to watch if you are not a horror movie fan. This is a new Thailand movie that rumor so scary that manage to scare out half of the audience in the cinema when it is showing. Whether the movie is good or not. I think it will still be scary. What do you think?

Just some rants |
Yeah ! I am still alive after going through another Monday. I wanted to put up the DotA Madness pics but forgot to bring the camera. Will have to wait for my sis to either post it or e-mail it to me. Be patient ok , I know we wanted to see Salty Peanuts crying due to the utter agony of defeat.
I loved Merdeka Madness , though I felt that 10 hours wasn't enough. Probably we should go for 12 hours next time.
Any ideas for a nice t-shirt ? Sai suggested we get the DotA loading screen and print it on the front. Now all we need is a witty line.
Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter , died. In what can only be called a freak accident , he was stung through the heart by a stingray during the making of an underwater documentary. Do go out and eat a stingray in revenge if you are a fan.
I have found the greatest song (at least until I find another greatest song) , it's Jack Johnson's - Better Together. Go sing it to someone special today. |

LOL okay.. -.- and this time for physics i crapped an answer again because i didnt know what on this sorry earth the lecturer was asking me.. and at that time my brains kinda froze cos i was SO nervous... i guess it went okay but im not expecting good marks though cos my lecturer is very stingy with marks... sheeshh.. okay anyway! the next time i come down to seremban i want to challenge magnus to a game of bowling..you hear me, magnus.. yes the queen of Longkang Bowling is calling out for you :P

The Madness has ended!!! |
Merdeka Madness exploded with must fanfare, and now the silence has settled. No DotA session after this will be as satisfying. So 10 hours of Dota didn't feel like 10 hours after all. A pretty wicked session I must say. Burned my retinas to dust. I am certain Warlock will be posting some of the pictures he took once he recovers his sanity.
Now I take my leave, to walk the lonely path of a recovering DotA addict.......... |

woo hoo! |
hola! Heyy how was merdeka madness... hehe.. my merdeka wasnt a very pleasant one... was down with flu and fever.. but still... i had fun the day before.. we went to 1u after college to celebrate a friends birthday.. we went for bowling.. and i got a score of 84.. and a strike.. woah mama! i was so excited okay.. seriously... the whole "i thought i had a supertrick" thing really got me down for a while.. and now i LOVE bowling!! im finally getting the hang of it... then after bowling we went shopping and i swore not to buy any clothes since i have too many already.. YES IT WAS HARD BECAUSE MEGASALES WERE TEMPTING ME.. but i didnt buy any clothes..see... im a good girl :) then we went for dinner at BBQ PLAZA... and it was so much fun to barbeque our own food.. after eating we started playing with our leftovers and ended up making a mess of the table.. tsk tsk.. was all really fun though... this might be my last post till end of September.. im gonna be pretty tied down with trials.. dont miss me :P adios.. p/s : do tell me how merdeka madness went yea.. |
