2010-03-06T21:09:00.003+08:00

and so this is the first post of the year..
right..
i was pretty busy and so that explained my unannounced absence from blogging..

brief update as usual..
- i own a car :)
- got a job (the plan of slacking for half a year didn't really work)
- what kind of job? unexpectedly, it's not the kind of jobs in the corporate world..
- taking CFA Level 1 (June exam)
- my convo is on this coming Wednesday :D

January - the package arrived in less than a week after i registered
(no excuse of saying 'not enough time to study!')

and it is freaking heavy.. -_-

didn't know why it's so bloody heavy until...

WTF! i knew there will be 6 books..
but never expected them to be so thick!!!!

don't let the lovely appearance of the covers fool you..
these books can do a better job putting you to sleep than sleeping pills..

and now it's March..
my study progress is not even near satisfactory.. :(
because of work + study, i have to sacrifice my 'anime-dorama-series watching time', 'manga time' and 'story book reading time'..

that being said, working and studying part time really isn't as easy as it looks..
i definitely have to pass this paper (coz it's super expensive, cost even more than a subject in uni)

okay, until next time (if any)!

~ Brief Update ~

2009-10-02T11:51:00.005+08:00

i noticed that the blog is in near-abandoned state..
so anyway, here's some brief updates..

FIRST, i attended Monash Ball 2009..

more pictures in FB..

SECOND, i went to Langkawi (finally..after 2 years of whining) during mid-sem break..

it was super fun!
pictures will be uploaded in FB sooooonnn...

THIRD, my finals is coming..
nothing much to complain about this sem..
my first paper falls on 30th October..
second (last) paper is on 2nd November..
if i wanna find something to complain about, it'll be..
"my paper falls on my bday again!!!" T_________T

but since it's my last paper anyway..so i'll just shut up :D

well, i guess nothing much left..
other than the evening when the ppl in KL felt the earthquake's tremors..
that was the time i just reached back home in Ipoh..
fortunately, we departed from Langkawi one day before..
PHEW!

okay..i wanna play some games in fb now..tata!

~ More books ~

2009-09-13T22:31:00.004+08:00

i was basically wasting my days away last Monday and Tuesday..
and on Wednesday, i decided to stop slacking and be productive..

rather than starting early on my assignment, i took out The Host and read..
i actually read few pages months ago but hesitated and halted it..
i was rather skeptical..don't get me wrong..
i like science fiction but not too much of it..
the first few pages of it sort of gave me the impression of being complicated..
and i hate imagining too many complicated things..so..i stopped reading..

and then wanting to be productive, i picked it up again on last Wednesday..
finished reading on Friday night..
to my surprise, The Host is very interesting..
it wasn't as complicated as i thought..
it even made me yearn for the sequels..

after that, i began reading Blood Promise immediately..
finished reading today..Sunday..
whoa..this book totally blown me away..
i did think the previous book is better but i don't dislike this book either..
and as i've predicted, Dimitri is still alive..
but i found myself drawn to Adrian..partly because Dimitri isn't Dimitri now..
i got a feeling Adrian's heart will be broken again since Dimitri is still alive and there might be a way to save him and get him back to being normal..
Rose probably will get back with Dimitri then..
and poor Adrian..
gaahh! i can't wait for the next book..MAY NEXT YEAR!! :D

anyway, both books kick ass!
got me to cry a number of times and made me stayed up til 6.30am++ and if i have no classes etc, i'll probably end up giving up my beauty sleep just to finish reading them..

can't believe i actually finished reading 2 books..a total of over 1000 pages..in what? 5 days? how i wish i can do the same when studying for exam..tsk tsk

and now i need to get back to my abandoned assignment :<

~ Parcel ~

2009-09-10T23:23:00.008+08:00

there's this book that i really wanted and it was released in 25 August..
so during mid-August, i went to MPH and asked them about it..pre-order and things like that..
but apparently, no such thing for it :(

so i was kinda despo..
and like any other despo ppl, i googled..
borders, amazon, e-bay..
and i even found this bookstore where u can get a signed copy..(i really wanted a signed copy)
but u got to send email to duno who who after duno what what..
i hate doing a lot of complicated stuff and well, i'm just being lazy..

so i decided to go with amazon (got discount ma~~)
i wanted to choose the fastest delivery method..
haha..but the shipping fees really made my eyes bulged..
so i settled for the second fastest..and still the fees cost more than the book itself -_-
(no point choosing the last in my opinion)

estimated delivery date was 21 September..
but being the impatient me, i was hoping it'll arrive sooner than the estimated date..
therefore since last week, i'd asked my bf to check out the parcel list in the management office..
but no news..

but this morning i just had the feeling..
so i went there before going to uni..
and VOILA!~

it's there!!!! it's HERE!!!!
well, it arrived safely on 8th..should have checked on Tuesday..but oh well..
WHEEEE!!!!
my first ever parcel from amazon~~

the book was in great condition..no dents..
very nicely packaged..
so i guess it's worth the money?

thanks daddy for letting me to use your credit card for this :D

i can't dive in the book yet though..
because i started on The Host on Tuesday and haven't finish reading..
like i said, should have check on that day then i would've already finished reading Blood Promise by now!

anyway, confession time..
i was so despo to the point i googled for the e-book on the released day..
and of course i found it..
BUT..i didn't open the file..haha..
i really didn't and i am so proud of myself for this reason :D
i can wait afterall..haha

somehow i really like the design of this building..
i would look at it whenever i passed it and that would be when i get back from ipoh..

i like the white curvy thing..haha

so lately, i have been thinking a lot bout certain stuff..
especially graduation..what am i to do after graduating?
i've been trying to figure it out since forever..
which company should i apply to?
what do i really want to do?
gahhh...!!

this is depressing..

~ Entertainment During The Weekend ~

2009-08-16T23:14:00.004+08:00

yesterday and today must've been the busiest time for Sunway Lagoon..
in fact preparations were made a week before that..

it was MTV World Stage yesterday..
i read somewhere that the gates opened at 3pm..
and around 5pm, many ppl had already arrived and stood under the light rain..

more and more ppl reached..
by then, there's no more rain (you can see reflections on the lake)..

at night..haha spot that toilet window at the upper left of the photo xD

take digicam to the toilet & take a pic through the window before 21 y/o..check!

woke up around 12.30pm on Sunday..
and the staff had already done some alterations for Eason's concert..
in fact, Eason was rehearsing few hours before the concert..

just wanna take the pic of the volcano..haha..
this happened at the beginning of Eason's concert..
but for MTV's, it was at the end..

can you see Eason from the tiny screen? xD

anyway, the concert was quite awesome..
i got to know one of the song's name from Diana..
he sang it and i was sort of listening from my room and it caught my attention..
and i really wanted to know it so i went to Diana's room and asked her xD
the song was..uh..Fu Kua?

Eason's concert ended with a nice fireworks show..
it's a shame that i didn't take pic of it..
i was acting nonchalant and walked slowly out of the room when the fireworks started but in fact, i really wanna run out xD
i looooveee fireworks..but didn't want my roomie to think i'm some sa kai never see fireworks before..hahahaha

this time i took better pics since i have my digicam instead of using my hp camera..hehe

haha so basically i had another free experience again!
it's one of the perks of living in stupidly expensive hostel :)
gotta make the money worth it, right?

~ The Cs ~

2009-08-11T17:46:00.003+08:00

i never really like anything that starts with C..
Cockroaches, Chocolates, Coffee..
there are exceptions though -- Cheese, Crab..

when i was a first year in uni, it never crossed my mind to get anything especially beverages in San Francisco Coffee..

but i did..food mostly..like sandwiches and soup..
and after some time, i started to buy drinks too..

nah, but not coffee..haha..
it's steamed milk + vanilla flavour!

and i always get the smallest size..quite expensive ma..
but it's good in the sense that it can make me grow taller and strengthen my bones..or something..
mostly it's because hot milk keeps me warm in the cruelly cold lecture theater (part of the reasons why i never attend lectures)

so when i received this card, i thought to myself, "i don't think i'll ever be able to redeem that free drink"

but i actually did it last semester..
as in i got all 10 boxes filled up..
and finally i redeemed a LARGE steamed milk this semester..haha
no restrictions or terms & conditions ma so might as well i make full use of it..
gotta make sure it's worth it since it sort of need RM73.50 to get that free drink..
cis..marketing scheme..

and this became my lunch for that particular day

everytime i go to the stall, the lady knows what i want even before i say it..
haha i guess not many ppl get steamed milk?

what's the point of this post?
i never actually thought of it before typing..
but now i realize-- there are things in life that you'll never know until you try it..
like before i never know what auditing is and whether i like it or not (in which i found out later after my intern that auditing is totally not for me)

all you need is the courage to put up the very first step and get started..

i really dont know what i'm trying to say here..
so, i'm calling it a day..for this post that is..haha

~ Bon Odori ~

2009-07-25T20:33:00.012+08:00

yes i know it's a week late to post this..
but it's better late than never right? :D

so after all the years of saying "i wanna go", i finally went to this year's Bon Odori held on last Saturday (18 July 09)
reached there a little before 5pm and surprisingly there were still a lot of parking slots..
phew~~

i'm too lazy to cover everything..
so basically, there were lots of food! and performance (dance)..
hito ga ooi deshita!

didn't get much of nice pictures but here you go..

if you come early like around 5 to 6pm, you can still get around quite easily..

nice yukata!

wanted to get the balloon..haha..cute!
the area surrounding the stage was so empty then..

i think around 6.30+pm, you'll have to queue up for super long to buy food..
so it's best to go early..haha
didn't take picha at the stalls area because it's too dusty..(haze + uh..dry sand flying around?)

more and more ppl came..
and you can definitely see lots of expensive camera there..
there were pure Japanese families too..

the performance :)

ppl around the stage danced too! :D look at those fans raised in the air~

didn't take picha of the food except for one..haha xD

the first timers

chee ching went too..but didn't get to meet her..sorry! ><
we went back around 8pm..
if i'm still in kl next year, we all shall wear yukata and bring along a mat :D

~ Sengoku Basara ~

2009-07-20T00:32:00.008+08:00

noticed that i didn't really mention anything about anime lately..
this time, i'll introduce you to an anime called Sengoku Basara or also known as Devil Kings..
i've just finished watching all 12 episodes..totally loved it!

the story is based on Japanese history and takes place in the Warring States period..
i'm sure there are some alterations and twists though..

i would say sengoku basara as one of those 'great things come in small package' type of anime..
plus, i think this would appeal more to the guys since there are lots of actions, fightings..

since i've read some historical based manga before like Tsuki no Toiki, i've a little knowledge of some characters like Oda Nobunaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Mori Ranmaru and Akechi Mitsuhide..
and let me tell you, it's pretty interesting :D

in addition, the characters have really super cool moves and it has great background music..

for some reason, i like the red guy more than blue guy..haha

one of these days, i might try to play the game..haha..
and hey! there's a 2nd season coming in 2010!

p/s: i suck at writing review for anime

2009-07-16T16:04:00.004+08:00

i guess it's already an old news to most of the ppl..
but anyway, here's a pic on my new hair..haha

probably can't see much..but i don't care..

anyway, results coming out today..
i don't know what to feel now..
currently sleep deprived and having headache..
wish me luck!

p/s: will be getting back to kl tmr :(

~ My Mortal Enemy ~

2009-07-08T22:27:00.003+08:00

Day 1

i have no worries or whatsoever during the first week in Ipoh..
in fact, i have been even happily killing its little offspring..
trust me, when i say little, they are really super tiny..like ants..

but my mortal enemy does not want to back down..
it decided to fight back..
and so it took yesterday's rainy weather as a chance to avenge its offspring..

i walked in the battlefield without being aware of its presence..
but my peripheral vision does not fail me..
i noticed it the instance i bent down in an attempt of taking down yet another of its offspring..

i was definitely caught off guard..
without much thoughts, i flee the scene and ran downstairs..

a tiny squeal formed in my throat..

"COCKROACH!!!!"

#%$^$&^%@$@#$

super freaking huge one! must be the mother :(

i waited an hour for my mum to finish doing her stuff..
but it managed to escape to god knows where because i really can't find it!

so i decided to sleep early to avoid conflict with it when my mum is asleep..

Day 2

day time is my time..
so i scouted the area as usual before entering in..
no sign of anything alive..

at night, i again scanned the area..
no sign again..
i was feeling a little triumphant..
but a part of me was still feeling wary..

my body tensed as i shit (okay, mind my words)..
eyes kept looking around especially on the floor..
but nothing..
feeling a little relieve, i brushed my teeth..
i reached for my contact lense solution bottle and was about to put it back before i saw something familiar on the rack..

all kind of things rushed into my brain..
the close proximity..the disgusting dark brown..wings? EWWWW..
its back was facing me..so i didn't see the disgusting golden ring with the antenna..EW EW!!

i totally squeal this time..left everything behind, closed the door and flee from the zone..
to the point my mum who was in the kitchen, washing plates could hear me..

mum shouted back dengan selamba, "what's wrong?"
i ran down shrieking, "IT'S HERE!! REALLY HERE!! AT THAT..THAT GLASS RACK!!"
mum, "oh"

my mind raced..how long has it been there? since morning?
when i was bathing, was it there?
but..but..it can't be here..didn't rain today..dry weather..
OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@%#$^%$^%$&

so now without being able to do anything, i'm awaiting help..
from my mum but she'll only help me before she sleeps..
which is..sadly..around an hour more or so..

:(

i will never be able to win any battle or war with my mortal enemies..

~ Books....again ~

2009-07-06T23:01:00.003+08:00

really, majority of my posts are either related to anime or manga..
so as a treat, i will talk about books this time..
however, the vampire part is of course inevitable..

if you ever did pay attention to my previous post, i had mentioned that i have started picking up books and read again..

and yeah, finished with them too..

i find myself liking them and they obviously provide me a good time, enough to distract me from google-ing Twilight, reading manga and watching anime..

Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead, with the first book named Vampire Academy, second book as Frostbite and third as Shadow Kiss..
the forth book is coming out in August and will be called as Blood Promise..
the fifth is coming out in April next year according to wiki and is called Spirit Bound..

urm, i'm not too good in giving out summaries or reviews..
but i'll give it a shot without revealing anything much..

so unlike Twilight which focuses on human and vampires, this series is about two vampire races called Moroi and Strigoi..Morois are the good vampires, alive with magical powers; while the Strigois are the bad vampires, undead and evil (the typical vampires we are all so familiar with)..it doesn't end here..there are also half vampires called Dhampir..so these Strigois have some weird liking to Morois' blood and they are hunting them so these Dhampirs become guardians to protect the Morois..

the story follows the main character, Rosemarie Hathaway, who is a Dhampir in training as a guardian to a Moroi princess, Vasilisa Dragomir, who happens to be her best friend too..they both share a special bond..and unlike Bella in Twilight, Rose isn't weak..more independent i guess..anyway, there are plenty of things i love in this series - the action, fighting, romance..

btw, it's a young adult novel..
not to mention, the price per book is quite reasonable..
and my definition of reasonable for books is below RM40..
so if you have the same interest as me,try it out..
get it as ebook if you're skeptical and find it out for yourself..
(if you could that is, because i couldn't find a complete version of it online, which led me to buying all three books at once in MPH and i can now proudly say that i did not regret doing so)

~ Sometimes I feel like leaving this blank ~

2009-07-04T19:59:00.005+08:00

great..
not even a week back in ipoh and i'm reverting back to my old sleeping time..
this is why we shouldn't read!
haha..so i finished two books in about 2, 3 days?
just have this habit to read before sleeping and it sort of dragged til 5am+
if only i could channel these effort into reading textbooks and studying..

anyway, i got nothing in particular i wanna talk about now..
so just stare at the shells, alright? :)

~ drools.... ~

2009-07-02T00:05:00.004+08:00

The pain i had today made it the fifth time since i entered uni :(

i've been telling my bf this and that randomly..
like how i wanted to open a book store with cafe inside (that was when i was so into reading..and i still am)
and how i wanted to open a manga store..
and how i wanted to open a half boutique & half book store..xD
and how i wanted to open a super quiet cafe where you can study and eat peacefully (that was during exam period..monash library is best known for their so called "quiet study area")
and the crazy list went on..

so the other day we were eating at Senjyu..

ordered this dessert called..hmm..
what is it again..
hm..something..mochi crepe with ice cream..i guess..

yeah, i totally love it..and ate it without remembering to take pic of how it looked inside..
basically, it's just vanilla ice cream wrapped with the mochi and topped with a strawberry..
but it's awesome..

so i told my bf..
hey, guess what..maybe i should open a shop just to specially sell jap dessert..haha!

-Melz-

~ Disaster..or not ~

2009-06-29T19:55:00.003+08:00

haha..nope, i'm not gonna post the new pic..
wahaha

~ What is happening? ~

2009-06-13T00:39:00.007+08:00

gee..i love skip beat! :3

this is the week before my exam starts and for the whole week i've been feeling strangely at peace..

something is definitely wrong with me!!
this has never happened before..
especially when my first paper is only two days away!

the usual me should be this way -______-

this doesn't feel right.....at all..
no symptoms of exam stress..(well, at least not mentally)..
it's not like i've finished revising every single thing..

but yet, it's as if my soul just got out from my body and took a relaxation trip to paradise land..wherever that is..

something is definitely wrong.....with me....

-Melz-

~ What you expected is what you will see ~

2009-06-11T01:27:00.005+08:00

someone has been saying that all i ever blogged is either twilight or anime..
for once, this post will be the out-of-the-norm post..

btw, i do not have much time to come out with a well-thought one..
so just live with this..

===========

today, i am even more convinced that motorcycles are the most dangerous moving vehicle on Earth..(oh well, maybe only in Malaysia?)

what the hell? they take things for granted..
"i'm small enough to slot here"
"i can swiftly cut this car from the right"
"i can turn whenever i want"

and then what? cause accidents for others? get yourself killed?

how dumb can ppl be?
how can you cut a car from the right when the car is going to turn right?!!
you're not even supposed to be on the right, by the way..
wrong lane!!!

stupid excuses..
"no, your fault..you didn't put signal..i didn't see it"
hello? are you blind? of course you can't see it because you're speeding!
and you don't see a car stop at the middle of the road for no reason..
we don't park there! and there's a turning next to where we stopped..
so is it too hard for you to comprehend?

how i wish the government would just build two separate roads..
for cars..for motors..
like those lanes just for motors (or was it bicycles?) in China..

so after that, i had my first trip to the police station..
i was kind of imagining how the officers would be..
like those super lan si type..

station A#

officer: oh kat mana accident?
someone: xxxx
officer: oh sana bukan kawasan kita ya..mesti pergi station B#

WHAT?!
i thought you can report to any station? (and this was the nearest station!!)
it's like going to a Sony shop wanting to buy a digicam and they say..
"i'm sorry, we only sell mp3 players here. to buy digicams, you have to go to another branch"

i really got cha dou-ed..
but anyway, at least they were friendly..
so i kinda scolded myself for having a bad imagination of them..

station B#

A-ha! see, those I-AM-GREAT & grumpy officers really do exist!!
just like what i had imagined..haha

so yeah, til here lar..
wanna continue studying..
will rant more soon..

~ RAWR!!! ~

~ All Messed Up ~

2009-05-17T16:42:00.002+08:00

great..just great..
not only did a huge ass flying cockroach invaded my room (again), both my sleeping time and taste bud are messed up as well..

my sleeping pattern started to show signs of disobedience since last Monday..
usually, i'll be asleep by 2am..but it keeps getting worse from 3am to 5am..
sometimes, even nearing 6am.. -____-
not good..

then, when i was studying..i took my favourite mentos mint..
and it tasted like some antibiotic..
-______-
WTF, right?

this is so screwed up..
i blame the stress :)

-Melz-

~ Teru Teru Bouzu ~

2009-05-15T22:31:00.004+08:00

when you watch anime etc, sometimes you'll notice the white doll hanging at the window..

it's Teru Teru Bouzu!
the purpose is to wish for a good weather..

well, my roomie made me one yesterday..

cute, right? :D

and yeah..i've finally watched Wolverine..it's not bad..okay lar..
i've also watched Angels & Demons..i have to say i really enjoyed it..
didn't read the book though..but i went to read the summary in wikipedia..
there were several notable differences..maybe i should read the book one day..haha

so anyway, go watch Angels & Demons..okay? :D

p/s: will be super busy til end of June..buuhuu..

p/p/s: sorry May'n..but my favourite song now is Link by angela.. heee~~~

~ For the moment.... ~

2009-05-07T01:21:00.004+08:00

so i was doing my IBF assignment..
*type type type*

and my tokyotosho feed updates..
a particular torrent caught my attention..

new single by May'n..
eeh? i didn't know that she sings for Shangri-La OP..

*click*

an hour later..

*listen*

ta daa..my favourite song for the moment..
i googled for the romaji..tarak..
so i was desperate..

*listen, see the lyrics in jap & curse because i can't read kanji*

so whatever..
after repeating that cycle..
and i finally came out with the whole lyrics..

then i was finding for the pv in youtube..
dammit! i found the stupid romaji lyrics!

so whatever..
i checked and revised my own against the romaji that i found since i can't read kanji afterall and she eats the words/sings too fast!

~ What is TAR without the yummy delicacy? ~

2009-05-04T20:36:00.005+08:00

i've just watched The Amazing Race season 14 epi 11..

they were at Beijing and finally, the ultimate eating-local-delicacy task..

larvae, starfish, grasshopper, scorpion..
eh..wait..WHAT? STARFISH?

a new thing i learned today..

STARFISH IS EDIBLE! ><

and i thought you can just eat it like that..
like literally bite into it..

nah..have to break the shell..

damn cool huh?
they can just eat them like nothing..
i wonder how it actually taste like..

~ Shucks ~

just feel like ranting a bit before hitting the sack..

the topic: exam timetable (again!)

i think each semester will have at least one post on this..
sure, compared to my previous history, this time i do not have papers 3 days straight..

BUT!

instead of 3, i have 2 days straight..
not that i mind..

BUT!

the first paper is in the AFTERNOON followed by a MORNING paper the next day!!!

crap..why cant it be like morning then afternoon? T______T

not only that, my third paper is a day after my second and until now i really have no idea what the subject is about..except that we need to play the stock game in investopedia..

i have about 3 days after my third paper to prepare for my forth..
isn't too bad for this..

i've been told to look positively at every thing..
so let's look at the bright side~
i'll finish my exam in a week..
longer hols for me :)

p/s: maybe i should've not rant so much..there are ppl who have to sit for 2 or 3 papers a day afterall..

~ Coming Soon ~

2009-04-29T18:48:00.003+08:00

Instead of watching FnF4, Wolverine, He's Just Not That Into You, Friday the 13th or Thread of Destiny, I chose Coming Soon.

Coming Soon is a Thai horror movie.
And since it is a Thai horror movie, I was pretty excited to watch it.

Unfortunately, I was not impressed.
It is just your average horror movie.
Sure, all of them died as in any other horror movie.
But, there was not much of action.
The "victims" did not really fight back.

So i was expecting the "fuck you, ghost! I did not do anything to you! now, get the hell out of here and stop haunting me" type of AHHHH!!!

Zen zen nai desu yo!

Instead, they died a lame death.

Of course, I sort of benchmarked it with several others Thai horror movies that I had watched before such as The Shutter, Art of the Devil, etc.

Therefore, I expected more.

That being said, go watch Wolverine or something. :)

p/s: first time I experienced a bad quality screening from TGV..i was not pleased at all..just gave me the impression that no one gives a damn about whether the screen resolution is right or focus correctly or not..well, not until minutes into the movie and someone finally complaint maybe a few times?..tsk tsk..
