Back from teh NO-INTERNET Trip

Subtitle: JANGAN POTONG!!!!! Walaupun kamu telah nampak itu "Potong Saga" dan P11MAX selalu "potong, potong", JANGAN POTONG!!!!! Gunalah Streamyx!!!!!

I just went for a one-week stay at my Grandparents' in Johor Bahru, and oh my, what a boring stay it is. This is due to multiple reasons that drives me mad during a 7-day stay.

1, There is a very-very-very-very-very-...(infinite) slow connection there in Johor Bahru. And as I almost want to complain for the slow connection for their Streamyx prior to half a year ago. So they changed to the P11Max, I thought "Yeah! Finally! Some DECENT connection speed!" And what I get was "3 Kbp/s" and sometimes it will surprise me by saying "Connection failed due to System Error". To put is simple, Shyt!

2, There is no FREE CARS! Since the connection is so....(look above) slow I wanted to go around to other places like shopping malls, bowling centers and etc. to keep me from touching the computer and its slow connection. But what do you know, there is NO FREE CARS! Since everyone is busy with their work at JB so every car is occupied and I have NO FREE CARS (But with a WOMAN-driver anyway) to go around. So, in conclusion, shyt(x2)!

3, My stupid comp don't have a Graphic Card! This makes me unable to play other computers games at JB since my comp has no Graphic Card but there is a WHOLE LOTTA GAMES with HIGH QUALITY GRAPHICS at JB and I'm UNABLE to PLAY!!!!! DAMMIT!!!!!

In conclusion, I want to shout as loud as I could, but we are staying in a terrace house in JB and therefore I cannot shout because it might disturb our neighbor! What a boring trip it is! But I wonder why I am still looking forward to go back to JB, maybe there is the place where I can reunite and play with all my cousins. Alas, SOMETHING to do in JB, thank god.

Recall the Choir Competition... Part 2

Subtitle: We did something wrong too... But the audience is STILL to blame!

From the last part of this post I mentioned that the audience will take all the blame for delaying our performance and thus leads our performance to an ugly end. But after I loaded and watched the whole performance of our class at the choir competition I changed my mind a bit. That is because our class has some SERIOUS error at the 'beat'(pictures later), but most of the blame is taken by the audience since I already said - No clapping hands/wooing between two songs performed by the same group.

Here are some pictures to support my point:

Pic 1 & 2: Wei Yi lowering his head after the "enthusiastic" audience keeps on clapping their hands after Candlelight Carol has Finished:







Pic 3: EXTREME off beat during the sentence "...and when the Saints go marching out into glory..." (by boys)



Pic 4, 5 & 6: SMALL ERRORS, this don't really count as a fault since they are careless mistakes on the hand expressions and signs and don't really mess with the points (According to professional judge hand expressions and signs only counts as 2~5 marks under the "Creativity" section)

*The difference of time between Pic 4 and Pic 5 are around 3~5 seconds






*Pic 6: Errr the picture is kinda self-explanatory




Well..... expect part 3 (Final part) very soon...... or a very long period later......

Holiday Again... Yeah Again...

I haven't been writing blog for about 2 months.
I'm probably too busy to write any anyway.
You know, exams, homework and etc. etc.

Now finally squeezed some time out to write something.
Thanks to Mr. Whoever-It-Is for giving us a 5-day-chain-combo holiday and some time to rest after the exam.
I'm thinking of getting some time off holiday to travel, but well, something happened to one of my elders and everything's gone.

There is nothing to do for this short holiday, except for revision, revision and revision.
The PMR is just around the corner, now I am like an ant on the boiling pan(I'm not sure this sentence exist).
Or... maybe not, since I'm not sitting in front of the computer and trying to find something to type onto this post.

But at least something is good for this short holiday:
I don't need to participate in this Friday's friggin "Send off Party" for my society.
According to one of the committee members, the games that are planned for this "Send off Party" is EXTREMELY disgusting.
Hope that they will not be like the "Fear Factor" event back in 2007.
Be canceled! Please! I'm begging you! Cancel this pointless event!

*Breath in... Breath out... Breath in... Breath out...*
I'm okay now, it's just that every time I think of that "Send off Party", I'm getting fired up!

Yeah... finally, something to share with everyone:



For Males only!

Holiday... Yeah...

Finally, it's holiday.
But I don't feel very much relieved.
Got bad marks in Chinese today.
Dammit! I hope it doesn't pull down my average score.

What should I do for the holidays anyway?
There's one whole week of back-to-school tuition.
Now my schedule was stuffed.
I hope I can spend some time back at my hometown, JB.
But now, maybe not.

So what should I do anyway?
I'm currently studying a bit of -subbing-
In one of my older post I asked something about Aegisub.
Well, I'm still using it since it's simple and user-friendly(I guess)
Here something else from what I had been doing:


Actually I'm not really a pro in this software.
I got to copy a lot of stuff from the FAQs to get the effects I needed.

Example the sentence sung above "hitori de wa todo ka nai"
The whole effects + font + timing is:

{\r\k0\t($start,$mid,\fscy120)\t($mid,$end,\fscy100)\fad(250,250)\fs28\pos(320,30)}{\k1\fnMaiandra GD}{\k21\c&H00FFFF&}hi{\k31}to{\k28}ri {\k18}de {\k32}wa {\k47}to{\k25}do {\k34}ka {\k21}na{\k41}i

Yeah... like I will understand as much as you do...
(After all, most of the stuffs are copied from the FAQs, so I don't understand)

Finally, something funny to show from the same anime, but about 20+ from the one I'm currently "testing" on:


Ya a worm?

A Visit to Bukit Jalil

Nah, this is not just a normal visit to Bukit Jalil.
I'm just going there to see the Super Band concert at Putra Indoor Stadium, Bukit Jalil.

My my, the show surely is impressive (and I won't go into details here, for details go check newspaper) and due to our seats we are almost deafened since it is soooooo close to the big speaker.

But I won't complain too much, as least it's worth the price and it is also my first I ever seen a concert LIVE not on tv. It sure earned me some good memories.

Here's what I actually did that day...

3:00 School end
3:30 Reach home, take bath, eat *lunch*
4:00 Leave to fetch my cousin at SS2
4:00~6:30 Wait... wait... wait... for my cousin...
6:45 Finally on our way to Bukit Jalil
7:15 Stuck outside Bukit Jalil parking lot
7:30 Finally found a parking space (for 3 cars)
7:45 Entered the stadium, feeling lucky that I'm a male since the female toilet is crowded and the queue is almost 0.5km long (inside the stadium), but strangely, there is 1 female toilet but 2 male toilet... I'll leave that for you to figure it out.
8:00 Entered the seats, waiting, looking at the screen which keeps on repeating the SUPER 我叫你试 and the Munchy's --- bite me advertisement, almost bored to death...
8:30 Concert finally started, Suki enters stage as special guest (And her voice is nothing compared to the quads later)
8:?? Super Band enters the stage, the Rock-of-the-century begins now.
9:?? The song that I remember the most... “噢爸爸,我要钱,噢妈妈,我要钱,噢爸爸,我要钱,噢爸爸,我真的需要钱!Yo!" (check YouTube for details lah~, title is "我要钱”)
10:?? Wakin asks "现在几点了?", then “我每次问几点的时候大部分的人的手表都坏了”
10:3? Concert ends, fans not satisfied, screams for encore. The four enters again.
10:4? Encore performance finished, everyone leaves
10:50 Stuck in the car park...
11:30 Finally reached home, take bath... sleep... *dreams*

Not bad isn't it, Wakin is surely funny sometimes, I'm mesmerized by the concert and their voices, simply astounding!

Gotta save money to buy their records, it should be worth it!



The tickets to the concert.



A close up HQ inspecition of my ticket:
AxCESS, August 1st 2009, 8:00pm, Block L13, Row H, Seat 22, Full Price RM228.00 (It's worth it, trust me!)
