FPS

Mon, 19 Jul 2010 15:59:00 -0000

Been playing some Blazblue Continuum Shift lately. Can't wait to get a PS3, go on PSN and kick some butt. And Noel Vermillion uses guns :)

Anyway, today's video is about the 'FPS Disease'.

Feels so good

Nene, Manaka, Rinko

Damn I didn't know this existed. Maybe its time to make the jump from Windows Mobile and make Steve Jobs richer. Wish my X1 had this app :(

But then again, I'm more interested in Android. Will decide when current contract ends I suppose. HTC Evo 4G vs Iphone 4

More info regarding Love Plus for Iphone here.

Evangelion

Sat, 29 May 2010 13:26:00 -0000

Its been awhile since I last watched a movie with friends. Well almost everyone else is done with their exams except for the medical students, including me. There's like exactly 1 month left before my first paper and mates are already packing up to go back home (Malaysia), this is just so depressing zzz.

Just watched both Evangelion 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone and Evangelion 2.22 You Can (Not) Advance, both in awesome Blue-ray quality. Man that was a blast, 4 hours of pure awesome-ness. The series has gone a long way since the 1995 release of Neon Genesis Evangelion. And I gotta say the movie does a superb job at reviving this old series. Not only are the animations top notch, so are the flow of plot and soundtracks too. At least you don't have to deal with the emo-ness of the protagonists so much in the movies as opposed to the series.

Evangelion 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone

Last year I had the privilege to watch Evangelion 1.11 at Cineleisuire. Gotta say the proper cinema experience is just t...

X1 #2

Sun, 23 May 2010 00:32:00 -0000

Here's post #2 in my X1 picture series, which basically a series of blog posts based around pictures found in my Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone.

This time its one of the parcels I received from Amazon way back in February 12 2009. Yeah its long overdue but I guess I should still post about it anyway.

Its finally here

What's that? Its a Hori Fighting Stick 3 for the PS3. Bought it to use on my PC though cos I don't own a PS3. I was pretty fond of fighting games since young but never really got past the scrub stage. Classics like Street Fighter and King of Fighters were fun to mash back then, when I still struggle to execute special moves or combos.

Melty Blood was the first fighter that really got me into serious mode, where I actually spent time to learn the game. From the fundamental basics to advanced combos and mixups, its been a fun journey since 2007. At that time, I was just a keyboard warrior and didn't bother much about using other input methods like a pad or arcade sti...

X1 #1

Thu, 13 May 2010 18:00:00 -0000

Mirai Nikki is awesome

Just because I'm bored, and can't be arsed to do what I'm supposed to be doing, I'm scrolling through my handphone pictures and picking interesting ones at random to post.

I'll try running a new series of blog posts known as X1 #, just so I have a constant topic to post. The term X1 is a namesake of my current handphone, which is the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, which has a 3.2 Megapixel camera. Not the best out there, but good enough for me I suppose.

2/2/2009. First snow experience in Liverpool. Took a night walk outside and snapped a few shots while looking around. Scene above is the walkway right outside the Student Guild. Snow is just H2O lol, nothing impressive.

Yeeehhh, I left my mark. LHW was here.

Mugi ~

Its been months since I last updated the site. Its not that nothing has happened, but I'm just too packed with stuff going on and sometimes you just lack the motivation to write anything at all.

Been staying up all week just to finish up this Special Study Module on bipolar depression. Glad that I got this 3000 word report done within the 4 weeks period, with an extra week to spare. Explains why I'm in the mood to actually update this blog.

On a side note, the original intention was to show the picture of something I stumbled upon while browsing the local 2nd hand store. Was quite a surprise really to see that thing and the picture above relates to it largely lol.

Yup. Its a Yamaha DGX-220 Keyboard

Its been more than a year since I last touched my Yamaha DGX-220, or any piano/keyboard related instrument for that matter. I missed the days of A levels where I would search for the scores of my favourite tunes to play on my keyboard. Back then, stuff was so easy that I had time for gam...

Kagami says Happy New Year

Happy New Year. Although its a little late.

Was down at the London Eye counting down with the crowd, shivering in the cold for 2 hours just for 8 minutes worth of fireworks.

With 2010 here, have you set any new year resolutions?

I just want to pass 2nd year and go back, enjoy my holidays.

Writings

Mon, 28 Dec 2009 12:57:00 -0000

Stumbled upon these masterpieces on the internet. Its basically anime references incorporated into homework/essays. Gotta have balls to do such a thing lol.

Why Code Geass is worse than Scryed

I personally find Code Geass to be awesome but never watched Scryed so I can't really comment much on this. On a side note, a new Code Geass project is in the works and I'm very much looking forward to it.

Its not hard to write such materials tho in my opinion since there's always politics and war involved in these anime. So the philosophical issues can be brought out as writing points and elaborated more with examples within the show.

Unlimited Essay Works

This is truly a masterpiece lol. This guy has the balls to hand in his homework based on Archer's Unlimited Blade Works chant in Fate/Stay Night.

On a side note, Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works the movie is gonna be out soon in January 2010. This is another great piece of news. 2010 is gonna be an awesome year.

It's You

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 16:58:00 -0000

lol Nurse

Found this song through random Youtube surfing. I'm not a fan of all male idol bands but this song's beat is just too sick. And they can dance, so its not some shitty Taiwanese idol group lol.

Super Junior - 너라고 (It`s You)

Been learning about Traditional Chinese Medicine lately. Pretty interesting and different from conventional Western medicine. Its all about Yin and Yang, and the flow of Chi heh.

Aya Shameimaru from Touhou

I feel like revamping my blog, and possibly shift it to Wordpress. Oh well, 1 more week till the end of classes :)

SSM period followed by Christmas break then.

On the other hand, tough job as Administrative Director for Liverpool Malaysian Night. On top of that, secretary work for Liverpool Malaysian Society too.

LMN 2010 is gonna be a blast and a hell of a show so stay tuned!

Randomness

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 21:32:00 -0000

Life's been pretty rough since the beginning of Year 2. Hence, the lack of updates. I also blame the lack of motivation and laziness.

Year 1 was a joke compared to Year 2, gotta miss the days of staying up late doing random stuff, and the relatively not-so-heavy work load compared to this year. The timetable is so much more packed and I have something to do almost everyday. So far Tuesdays are days off for me but once Community/UCCT/GP attachment starts, I won't have any more off days. Argh...

Entering the hospital as medical students is a new experience overall, pretty interesting as we get to see stuff and walk around the wards. But at the end of the day, we are pretty much just there to watch and learn, instead of discuss and participate cos we are just LEVEL 1s as opposed to the LEVEL 99 Consultants. Ok, put that as LEVEL 2 since I'm a Year 2 after all. Main objective in hospital is to walk around and find patients to take histories from, present them to anyone above you,...

Yesssss

Wed, 19 Aug 2009 18:36:00 -0000

Here's some Touhou love

A lot occurred over my summer break. Hence the lack of updates, but mostly due to my bad mood and laziness.

Interrupted holiday - D-day for results wasn't the best day in my life. Oh well, resits D:

Abrupt return to UK - Screwed plans for Singapore and GACC

Intensive practicing for Communication Skills - Perhaps I practiced a little too much

Return to Malaysia - 14 hours on a budget airbus. Wasn't that bad really

Resurrection of Singapore trip - Flying this Friday

And not long after that, back to Liverpool for the new term. 2nd Year Medical Student! And my hospital is right across the road. Awesome.

All in all, I'm glad I made it to the following year, and still in 1 piece despite all the H1N1 stuff going on. With so many flights over the month, what are the chances of me getting that heh?

A little sad that I couldn't make it to GACC but hopefully there's still next year. Daicon was a worthwhile experience and I got Minorin's signature!

Last but not least, I'm grateful fo...

Over

Wed, 10 Jun 2009 00:54:00 -0000

Finished with papers, time to pack up and prepare for the heatwave in Malaysia.

Flying on the 15th, reaching 16th, KL a few days, then Perlis till July. So far nothing much planned yet.

Daicon, Chihara Minori, MBAA, Blazblue, DotA?

This is gonna be an interesting summer break.

Pray hard I don't need to return here for re-sits in August >_<

Happy Birthday Rie Kugimiya

Sat, 30 May 2009 02:53:00 -0000

Shana, Louise, Nagi, Taiga

Hmm, what do they have in common? Besides being all female, and the same personality trait, they happen to be voiced by the same seiyuu, Rie Kugimiya.

Its rare for me to wish some seiyuu happy birthday, but I'm actually quite a fan of her lol. I watched most of the anime where she had a main role, and she's worthy of the title 'tsundere queen'.

Rie Kugimiya isn't that young anymore lol. She's 30 this year, but fret not as she shows no signs of retiring from the seiyuu business anytime soon. Guess we could expect more tsundere roles coming from her in the near future :) She also sings, but usually its for anime OP/EDs. Her singing ability isn't actually top tier, but it fits the characters she portray.

Here's pictures of the famous roles she had over the recent years.

DFC alert!

Yuuhi <3

Fun fact: She also voiced Alphonse Elric in Full Metal Alchemist. That's how I was exposed to her in the first place. But trust me, her voice can change a lot.

Here's a clip fe...

Lucky☆Star Credit Card

Wed, 13 May 2009 20:45:00 -0000

Damn I'm moving to Japan now to get this card. Lol

Card above is issued by Orient Corporation from the Orico Groups.

Look at my boring MasterCard below.

Numbers blurred to protect the innocent.

Imagine using a Lucky Star card to pay at a restaurant, damn cool wei. Can only dream though, until UK allows custom printed credit cards like US.

There's also an IDOLM@STER credit card around, but I'm not a fan of that. Looks decent too so might as well get that for Visa? Heh.

Again, my Visa looks like shit with the Maybank word up there. It looks the same like my Mastercard, just different logos at the bottom right.

My Facebook

Sat, 1 Nov 2008 03:42:37 -0000

Again, the IN thing for social networking sites nowadays. Just add me up if you feel like it. I'm not really active there, but its there for the sake of existence. Created it when I was looking for mates at University of Liverpool. Well, it served its purpose

My Animepaper Profile

Tue, 15 Jan 2008 14:39:42 -0000

Finally took the trouble to update my Animepaper profile after so long. Usually I'm just the silent leecher for Anime wallpapers. Some how, the urge to design appeared and I actually went through the trouble to design a Lucky Star wallpaper! More info on how my designing journey began here. http://limhanwei89.multiply.com/journal/item/93/Imageworks Will update here with my latest designs. (If any appears in the future...) So, check out my latest wallpapers! Even if you don't like Anime, the art might interest

Jaclyn Victor & Vince Chong - You Are The Music In Me

Sun, 30 Dec 2007 12:59:10 -0000

Well... Poor quality as expected from a 1.3 Megapixel camera. Furthermore, I was in the first floor, recording the video from quite some distance. Oh well, better than nothing right? Enjoy this Original Sound Track from High School Musical 2! Both of them sang quite well, but unfortunately, I think the speakers weren't that good and their vocals were not captured in optimum quality. For more details and pictures regarding my encounter, visit this link to read the blog post. You Are The Music In Me Lyrics

Gathering @ Er Win

Wed, 26 Dec 2007 07:14:05 -0000

18th of December, 2007 Gathering for our batch held at Er Win's house. Location was switched a few times due to personal reasons. First it was Henna's house, then Serene's house and then finally here. It was great meeting old friends and catching up with them. Unfortunately some failed to turn up because they were not back in Kangar yet or their holidays had passed. For those who want to read about the events that took place, please visit the following links. http://limhanwei89.multiply.com/journal/item/79 http://limhanwei89.blogspot.com/2007/12/final-distance.html Note: Its written from my Point of View. So, I might had missed some details as I was mostly occupied in the computer room. -Friends Forever Credits to Henna for bringing along her AMAZING

My second blog. Started on 05/12/07. Multiply remains my primary blog but then, who knows what the future holds? Cross posting enabled so generally, same stuff will be posted. My Blogger features a different theme compared to here... Its soft, light... Unlike the dark and emo theme here. Haha. Do check it out and leave some

Paint Ball @ Extreme Park

Mon, 3 Dec 2007 11:17:00 -0000

Pictures of the Paint Ball session at Extreme Park taken on 01 Dec 07. Hopefully we can organize another gathering like this. Paint Ball is actually quite fun after you experience the Pain!
