Convicted Freedom

Yerr, why you NANG your own posts wan?

noreply@blogger.com (cheahwey) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 19:00:00 +0000

So I was on Innit looking at some of the more popular posts, clicked on one to its Innit page and GASPS, the writer (hereonin known as P) nanged his/her own post! Then, out of curiosity, I decided to check on some of P's older posts and WADDAYA KNOW!
*a NANG equals to a thumbs up, on Innit

What happened to integrity and humility?
Why do you feel the need to have to nang your own posts? A bit cheap, no?

It's a blog eat blog world out there.
Everyone's too caught up fighting for a piece of the pie that they disregard the fundamentals of being a person.

Perhaps I am naive to believe that we should be honest even if competition looms over our heads but how do you think this reflects on you as a person?

Now, don't go saying it's just for fun and that I shouldn't take this seriously because I think it just means disrespect to the developer. It's as though current ideas about the project is drifting away from its intended objective. Like, rearing a fuzzy bunny for EVIL, instead of LOVE. It feels wrong.

Two months after I applied to IUB (USA) and one day after I applied to Purdue University (USA), Mum summoned me to talk about considering Curtin (AUS) instead. Again.
I realize this puts my 'Curtin can suck IUB's balls' post to shame but IUB is a better school.

With the Aussie Dollar dropping faster than you can say, 'Crikey, no snow in Aussie', we would be saving Rm200k on fees, compared to the Dollar which despite the economic turmoil, is increasing. So if I really wanted to blame someone for this, it would be the Bush Administration.

Of course, all this is like a sucker punch to my dreams of being able to find more than 100 brands of breakfast cereals on a shelf. And then there's all that effort put in for research and a whole month gone just to wait for one stupid outline.

Well, whatever it is, I'm pretty sure Rm200k outweighs anything, at this point.

Now, if only I can remember what my declared major was for Curtin.

Patek Phillipe

It's a so-close-yet-so-far relationship with me and watches. I tend to somehow damage them. But of course, this is only based on experience on ONE watch and a slightly expensive one at that. So, in order to stop myself from damaging more, I've stopped wearing watches for a few years now. But this doesn't make me blase about watches. Elegant ones get longer stares *wink*. Up-scale timepieces like Patek Philippe get twice as long, the stare. Why? Because it's so desirable that royalty (like Queen Victoria) wore them. Of course, this watch is there for people like me only to look at. The cheapest piece is going for USD11.5k!

This was brought to you by Finest Watches.

It's in your SPM slip, right beside KOD DAFTAR. I have to translate it into English but I have no clue what JEN is. Help?

UPDATE: Crikey! Does it mean JENAYAH DAHULU (Previous Convictions)?

I've used up two blank CD-Rs to burn an MP3 CD but they keep skipping when played with the CD Player.
I found some causes of skipping depended on the specs of your computer, media, software and speed.
I've lowered the speed to 4x, tried Nero 6 & 7, CD Burner XP, Roxio and this is a Vista Home Premium, 2gb, 1.73ghz lappie. I'm using an EMTEC CD.

How do I stop the skipping??

Awesome possum!

After fixing the wheel and getting the batteries, I now have a functioning RC Vroom Vroom! This calls for a spin in the park tomorrow! Okay, maybe porch. I'm not much of an outdoorsmen.

Is there nothing more intelligent than "yes" in your vocabulary?
If that forum was run by a point system, I would've thought you were artificially inflating your post count.

5 responses (in one page out of nine) pertaining to NOTHING but agreement.
Is this person really that shallow??

Just cause you were voted by some of the active dwellers as Most Participative, doesn't mean you have to be constantly there... Everywhere.

Why did they even vote for him/her as participative?
Being participative means providing constructive input to the conversation or topic.

Try holding a conversation with this person:

"Wow, the weather's great!"
"lolz, yea 8) 8) 8)"
"Mmmmhhhhmmmmm..."
"yea :D :D :D"
*awkward silence*
"Soooooo, your Mum doing fine?"
"yea, of cos she is 8) 8) 8) 8)"
"Great."
"lolz, yea :D :D :D :D"
"Oooookay"
"yup 8) 8) 8) 8)"

Yeah, I can see how he/she would make a great conversationalist.

Comedy with "substance"!

Can you write a movie review without including spoilers?

I know one... okay, maybe two... persons who are notorious for writing reviews while happily exposing scenes from just-released movies.

No matter how crappy or great it is, do you really have to tell us what happened.... specifically?

Boy, I'm really blurting out my frustrations this month.

Thanks to Nuffnang, I had the opportunity to watch a special screening of The House Bunny.

It's a typical, comedic and bimbotic flick but true to most Happy Madison productions, it eventually redeems itself with the notion that it's what inside there that counts (read: You Don't Mess With The Zohan, Click, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry).

The movie introduces pretty new blood like Katherine McPhee, Rumer Willis and Emma Stone, who may I say, bears a frightening resemblance to Lindsay Lohan. But really, she's a natural blonde. Rumer Willis didn't do too bad a job on this. I was honestly surprised because I expected another Paris Hilton-esque performance.

You know how some trailers expose too much of the funny scenes just to entice you to watch and eventually sucked when you actually see the whole thing? Garfield 2 comes to mind.
Anyhow, the trailer for House Bunny is packed with humour but they had a little more up their sleeves, so you won't be disappointed. Although, it's always unfortunate that scenes were excluded from the final cut. Yep, there were some relatively raunchy scenes and some pretty harmless ones too that were absent. I'm sure if you looked somewhere, you'll find them eventually.

I would say this is suitable for ages 12 and above.
I suppose 7 year olds won't understand the infatuation of boys with raging hormones toward dolled up girls or at the very least, they would find it revolting.

Or I could've just said, "House Bunny was great! Go watch it" and saved you all the trouble.

Oh, I'm just dropping by... SMACK!

noreply@blogger.com (cheahwey) — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 14:32:00 +0000

Why is it that people can't seem to post messages without their URLs attached?
Stop being so desperate can? Very annoying leh.

And while we're on the topic of annoyance, stop saying you're "DROPPING BY" and subsequently pasting your URL all over with the hope that some blind moron clicks it. It just shows how insincere and conniving you are. Because text on the Internet is so easy to plagiarise, it's unfortunate for those who truly want to socialize. But hey, to separate yourselves from all the other ad-whores, why don't you leave a comment for a post. I'm pretty sure you can include your URL there instead.

All this blog traffic shit is making people forget the essence of socializing. Does meeting people not mean anything anymore? You don't pick your nose and ogle hot chicks during a first date do you?
That's all it is. Learn your manners.
What do you think this tells the blogger whose chatbox is filled with superficial messages like "hey, just dropping by...[URL]"?

It's more likely that they would reciprocate by visiting your blog if you actually said something RELEVANT.

I swear, it's my hormones talking.

Dull-witted conversations between siblings

Note to self:
1. Sat a little too far so I maxed out the focal length. Pics were soft and some out of focus. Don't do that again.

2. All shot with Shutter Priority but should've probably tried Aperture with a smaller f-stop. Can't say if high shutter speeds are achievable though.

3. ISO was initially 800 but reduced to 400 later.

4. Get better seats next time! *coughorgetmediapassescough*

Le sigh. Sammi Cheng's pretty hot for a 36 year old.
I want to look hot when I'm 36.

Her hair is SEXY

Make something edible for me woman!

I haven't made dishes in a while now. Seeing that I prefer appetizers and am very picky, I suppose my options are somewhat limited. Other than the Bruschetta, I can't remember if I made anything else.

Looking at available recipes, I think Ham and Cheese Balls look pretty simple. Now, if only I can get myself to do it.

Obviously, I like cheesed up dishes. So if you want me to do something, you know what to do *wink*.

Question

noreply@blogger.com (cheahwey) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 17:50:00 +0000

I'm going to Genting tomorrow and I'm bringing the camera. Let's say I'm at the outdoor theme park and there's a shot I MUST take, so I need to switch lenses right there. Now, I'm rusty on the condensation part but would the inside of the lens fog up? And correct me if I'm wrong but there's a lot of moisture in the air up there right? That spells "danger" when changing lenses outdoors?

And my Bunny Date is...

noreply@blogger.com (cheahwey) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 16:18:00 +0000

VELERIE.

Can you make it?

Eagle Eye was awesome.

House Bunny, here I come!

noreply@blogger.com (cheahwey) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 03:48:00 +0000

I am such a ROCKSTAR.

With much delight, we will like to inform you that you've been chosen to attend the Premiere Screening of House Bunny courtesy of Nuffnang and Buena Vista Columbia Tristar.

with winning slogan:

“I want to be a House Bunny because….”
...I am a bunny. If you would just look in my pants here *point point*, you'll see a little bushy bunny tail. Shhhh, it's a secret!

By the way, I'll be going with Deng tonight (for Eagle Eye). I'm taking this as some sort of test run; see if we'll bicker and piss each other off. If it's a bad experience, I'll go with one of you guys for House Bunny, mmkay?

Pent up sexual desires, illegal substances, dead and disgustingly gory bodies, super Sci-fi powers, excellent music and humour. YEAH, BABY!

MONDAY - Heroes
TUESDAY - House, 90210
WEDNESDAY - Pushing Daisies, Private Practice, Dirty Sexy Money, Bones
THURSDAY - Grey's Anatomy
FRIDAY
SATURDAY - SNL
SUNDAY

Man, I canNOT catch a break. Especially on Wednesdays.

Educational Blurb: Note that these shows (except SNL) are in primetime slots on WEEKDAYS. That's because the majority of their target audience is out partying on Fridays and weekends.

I've been exposed to so many different bands just by watching these shows. One of the bands is Unkle Bob. I first heard their song, "Swans" from Grey's Anatomy and then another, "Put a Record on" from Girl Next Door. There are another two songs which I also recommend, "The Hit Parade" and "Hold It Down".

Which brings me to question my interests and Deng's interests. I'd always thought because we grew up together and experienced new events together, we would have similar interests. But I guess not because Deng seems to not give a fuck about what music I listen to or what I'm watching (and I'm using "fuck" nonchalantly, not negatively). It's so hard to get her to watch Heroes (for instance). Look at it this way. I'm a computer connected to the WWW and is attempting to connect to Deng but she had to go and install a Firewall and block incoming connections from me.

Ihaytchoo.

I'm so broke, I couldn't pay for my photocopy prints.

I got hired

noreply@blogger.com (cheahwey) — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 04:09:00 +0000

So Scope International a.k.a Standard Chartered finally called and they want me to go for training on Oct 6th. That's two weeks away. Should have ample time to fix my sleeping patterns and clear my face off blemishes and whatnot. Maybe lose a little weight around the love handles too. Some orovo maybe?

Anyhoo, I feel a bit reluctant to accept the job. It took so long for them to confirm us (Nicole and I) that just a while ago, before I got the offer, I was sitting here thinking about how I kind of not want to do this anymore. I can't help but wonder if the negativity from all the people around me (on this job) is making me feel this way. Maybe I should just suck it up and be a man about it. Do it for the money, bitch!

And then now I have to go take some pictures for HR. That's going to cost about Rm12, photocopy some things, then drive to Bukit Jalil and get lost.

All of a sudden, I feel incredibly upset and demotivated. Boo hoo.

Gotta love C&H:

I don't know much about him.

He doesn't reveal much except for his horrible English and horniness.

His screen name is a stock name; general names.

He's probably psychotic.

He's compiled two blogs of pretty blogger chicks; a mini biography.

It's like a menu for online sexual predators to choose from really.

If I could ask him one question, it would be this: Do you jack off to their pictures?

Ps. ~~I've decided not to shovel my own grave so I didn't include links or pictures.~~ Sod it. This post was inspired by Cathy's post. You can find the link at her blog.
