Yo sup.

~~Hack~~ Guest blogger here. :D

So I wanted to blog about this some time ago but couldn't since it's supposed to be a big surprise and all.

But surprise is over so yay! Here's what Ben's been up to lately, aside from being grounded of course. :P

GIANT ASS KATY PERRY W00T.

Him and his bunch of friends being the awesome friends they are, got Khai Yii a Katy Berry (yes, I intentionally spelt it Berry) for his birthday!

They thought of it ages ago but it was only ready like a couple of weeks later so Ben went to pick it up.

The closest your groin will ever get to her hips, Ben. :P

Pretty cool idea, ain't it? :D

There was also the giant ass cloud poster but I don't have that pic yet. Oh wells.

People staring coz they be jealous. :P

Then we realized that there was a problem fitting her into his *coughcough* CLK.

Thank goodness his friend Qian Wei was ~~not an idiot like us~~ a genius and suggested shoving her through the back.

So yeah.

We ended up with this.

I swear, it was weird but interesting. Now we can say that we have had Katy Berry on top of us anyway.

Well Ben can. I couldn't give a shit.

Shall get news from Ben about his friend's reaction and blog about it when I see him again. :D

HAFWB Jia out.

P.S.: HIS BROTHER SO DAMN COOL GOT PROM KING ALONG WITH HIS GF WHO'S PROM QUEEN.

/clapping fitatum

Better than this one, never even went for his high school prom. *kicks*

Have you ever...

2010-09-30T09:57:00.002+08:00

done something that you've regretted and wanted to turn back time?

I have... sort of...

Firstly let me say that I'm the type of guy who lives with no regrets. (or at the very least attempts to do so)

But if someone were to come up to me right now and say-

Hey, Ben, if you were to regret one thing in your life, what would it be?

Without hesitation I would definitely say that I regretted...
Doing my last semester's model with curvy walls and lines.

Yes, I am currently sitting in my comp lab trying to use autocad to create an isonometric drawing of my previous assignment.

And hell, its really really hard.

But then again, this was the assignment that I had the most fun doing.

Adding to the fact that it was a challenge everytime to get each and every individual unique pieces to be just the right shape.

All in all, I really don't regret making this model, because it was one of my better works.

I guess I'm saying that if i were given the chance to go back in time and change it, I would just do it all over again.

So live with no regrets, cause the worse feeling is regretting what you've done cause there's no way of turning back time.

Embrace the moment, do what you love and one day, you might realize that life isn't rushing towards a destination...

It's the journey that counts.

And omg, my blog got ~~hacked~~ visited by my very special friend, thanks for keeping my blog alive :)
credits to her and her clapping fitatum (FTW)

____________________________________________
*still attempting to figure out how to do this assignment*

but then I realize...

I am awesome.

And so is another one out there

*hugs*

Illusion of Danger or Something Like That

2010-09-27T15:42:00.007+08:00

YO SUP. :D

~~Hack~~ Guest blogger here.

I am bored and today has been going shitty. So here I am, blogging because this guy can't be arsed to do so himself.

Thank goodness I had the pics in my account.

So yay! You can see for yourself what he's been up to. Besides sending dodgy links to me via FB messages. Ahem.

Obviously what he's busiest about would be his coursework.

Seriously interesting stuff they do, though to them is normal already la. But check it out.

So pretty right????? :D

Really awesome lor.

And goodness, the patience he has to do all these super kyute tiny furniture is crazy.

Where do these people get their ideas is beyond me. And he came up with it in 5 minutes.

WTF SERIOUSLY?

Seriously.

I mean, if normal people like me had to come up with a living space or whatever it's called, this would prolly be my product.

Or maybe it's just me.

All in all, BEN IS SO DAMN AWESOME AND STUFF. (He made me say it :P)

HAFWB Jia out.

P.S.:

OMGTEHAWESOME hot chocolate! Lookit at the marshymallows! :D

P.P.S.: Funny vid of Ben tqvm. :D

I LOVE JIA YING

(he made me put that too :P)

Let's... Go...

2010-09-10T16:53:00.002+08:00

SHOPPING~~~

Yea thats the only way you'll ever get me to say it... never in real life :P

On a really really different note... *attempts at whistling*

So, on merdeka night, the bro's suddenly wanted to take a random trip down to Desa Park City.

According to Khai Yii, that night they were gonna have fireworks around that area and we would be able to see them from the park.
We were damn skeptical cause merdeka night's fireworks are usually at certain locations only. Plus KhaiYii's defense of saying there were gonna be fireworks were on the basis of there were fireworks on new years =.=

After asking around, someone managed to get "fireworks at 2 am" from a foreign worker at the near by shop...

Main convo that night-
Qian: "Eh, I forgot my tripod..."
Ben: "Go take la, but what you want it for?"
Qian: "Well, tonight it has 2 functions lor... 1-To take pictures/videos of the fireworks... or 2-Whack Khaiyii when theres no fire works"
Ben: "Sounds like a plan"

Happy to say that... Khaiyii still owes us a whack with the tripod, but we had a fun time taking awesome pictures by the lakeside. The park was awesome by the way.

PHONE SHOT
Best Picture of the Night :D

Back to the shopping part, (yes I actually did go shopping) my mom had these Parkson vouchers that she had to finish off before they expired so I brought along my image consultant to find a proper shirt, since most of my wardrobe looked like shit xD

We were there for a few hours trying on shirts and collar t's until finally, we found the most ORGASMICALLY AWESOME BLACK LONG SLEEVED SHIRT EVER!!!

(cue virtual shouting)

BUT WTF THE SHIRT WAS FREAKING HALF A SIZE BIGGER THAN I WAS AND THE ONE THAT I WAS TRYING WAS THE LAST ONE IN THE WHOLE STORE~~~
lalala

IT WAS BLACK AND IT WAS FREAKING COMFORTABLE CAUSE OF THE MATERIAL AND IT WAS FREAKING 50% OFF AT RM70

according to my image consultant, feeling the shirt was orgasmic... and she's right

OMFG DAMN FREAKING WASTED T.T
Don't worry la image consultant, with your touch memory, we shall find another similar but more awesome shirt. and we shall always have a memory of that awesome shirt...

As you can see, I wasn't that into the shirt so I went to find another shirt that was actually my size and... hey I actually look good in formal wear :D

OWH YEA... PULLING... IT... OFF...!!!

Benjamin Wee, architect... And you are? :)

Me and my image consultant... DAMN I LOOK GOOD :D

In the end I bought that shirt cause it came in second best to the AWESOME SHIRT.
And also a matching light blue tie to go with it :D

And, no, this picture is not the tie I bought

Hey, baby, why don't you and I get some Mcd burgers and go back to my place to moan "i'm lovin' it"?

LOL, my pick up lines suck xD

P.s. Random conversation I had with my bro on the way to lunch today...

Bro: "Eh, next time I should be your rounder."
Me: "Huh? rounder?"
Bro: "There... You know that big black dude..."
Me: "You wanna be a big black dude next time? which part?"
Bro: "No la, but that guy who's your bodyguard and kicks people out of clubs one..."
Me: "You mean bouncer issit? -.-"
Bro: "Yeah, thats the one... >.<"

LOL I LOVE YOU LAR BRO~~~

Why are you gone for so long? T.T

One day...

2010-09-03T22:45:00.000+08:00

we shall find out why we were put onto this earth.

So the question that has eluded man kind for centuries that I might have the answer for.

WHY ARE WE HERE?

Many ask it, few dare to pursue it, even less try to answer it.

The Answer?

why do birds of a feather flock together.

why spring turns to fall.

why we sometimes blunder.

why some people are too tall.

what makes a girl tick.

what prompts a baby to crawl.

what can you beat with a stick.

what does Sally want with Paul.

what is the best thing to lick.

when neutron stars collide.

when you'll get sick.

when you'll let it slide.

when geometric is isometric

when she/he had lied.

who took the last cookie.

who hasn't been unified.

who gave u that wedgie.

who just died.

who the hell gave you your first wet willy.

how does rain come from above.

how did she ever get so lovely.

how peace is the white dove.

how we can always live randomly.

how would we ever know when to <3

It's time again...

2010-08-25T01:30:00.001+08:00

to revive my blog with a couple of defibrillators.

So since Semester 2 has started, I've done one model so far.

I'm proud to say that all 3 lecturers who commented on our work liked it.
Not love, liked.
So maybe I'll get a strong B, an A- if possible xD

Basically we wee suppose to do an abstract art for our first assignment.

Me and my teammate thought- Hey, let's do something interactive instead of some boring old random painting with mixed meanings.

And so we came up with this 3D piece of art that gives 2 meanings when alternating between it being open, and it being closed.

And yes, our work can freaking move and is interactive :D

So basically our assignment was to convey what we felt to the site and the issues that can be addressed.

So, we decided to come up with a 2 part artwork which consist of when the artwork was closed and when it was opened.

When the artwork is opened, the spiral formation tells our journey on the trail which leads ultimately to the center (the highest point) that would be our site.

Our journey was a treacherous one with cliffs that did not have guard rails and the road was uneven with potholes and defects.

The blue trails portrayed our curiosity that propelled us to seek our site despite our dangerous journey.

The fins are present to give the illusion of movement that is required to show the journeys direction.

See? highest point :D

But when the model is closed, it shows the issues that we have pinpointed, mainly the site's safety issue.

It was exposed to a 30 foot drop which explains the cluster of sharp objects that concentrate on a certain spot when the model is folded.

This gives a look of immense danger.

It wasn't all work and no play for me.

It never is :D

Went out with Crystal and JiaYing for a PICNIC in a park near Crys's place :)
The place was awesome, coupled with awesome company, made that day really awesome xD

CAMWHORE SHOTS :D

omfg, i dunno why i even posed like this >.<
Must have been damn hungry...

My weapon of choice in war :D
Shall come down from above and smite thy enemies... Or colour array blast them, which ever way works best :)

Nicest pic so far... no wait... my hair kena chopped >.<

We ~~tried to fly~~ flew a kite :D

LAST BUT NOT LEAST

My best friend Jeremy left for Canada recently, gonna miss you bro

This one's for you

We've had damn a lot of fun over the years, i wish you lots of luck in your life in Canada, hope you have a more awesome one than you did back here :')

This pic brings back a lot of good memories...

YES THIS IS US IN FORM 2 AND WE'RE NOT EMBARRASSED TO SHOW IT.
(at least I'm not, didn't ask his permission yet xD)

Have you ever realized...

2010-08-22T23:28:00.001+08:00

how random can life get?

Food for thought :)

Hey look, its...

2010-08-10T23:51:00.002+08:00

a Jimmy Joe ;)

Lol, its was a really...

2010-08-09T23:27:00.000+08:00

weird day, the time i saw that my friend in college - Rachel had the same freaking bruise as I.

Look look! weird... same hand summore, for sure there's something going on...

Maybe we're a special race of super awesome people

Maybe we have some superhuman power

Maybe aliens were marking us for abduction

Maybe we were ALREADY abducted D:
*checks ass*

Maybe we're just really careless people who get random bruises >.<

OMG, my blog is...

2010-08-04T20:01:00.001+08:00

damn freaking dusty already...

Haven't been updating much recently just because the biggest word in my dictionary keeps popping up :)
LAZY

So anyways, I was feeling very enthusiastic about updating all of a sudden :D
so i guess that's bad luck for the rest of you who actually suffer through my blog xD

Just got back into university and started with my semester two of my most-freaking-awesomest course in the world. But before any of that, I was on holiday xD

The holiday was in one word - fun :)

Did random stuff the whole of the hols.

Hanging out with my brothers from other mothers. Had an awesome time with you guys.
Cause Haans came back from oh-so-far Australia, we had to gather up the gang and actually go some place xD
And that some place was... wait for it... *drumroll*
LANGKAWI~~~
*back ground noise~~ yay~~ woot~*

The gang who went. Haans being Haans, was stubborn and didn't want to squat with us =.=

Group picture on the jet ride there :D
Jer's arm damn freaking long =.=

the place where we stayed at, not bad considering the price we paid, we expected less :D

First night - when in Langkawi... :D

Yes, I was on the phone most of the time :)
=.= face cause Qian was trying to take candid shot of me xD

Awww look at the lovely couple ;3
Jeremy and his gf, Sue

And as usual, their bodies make my want to kill myself T.T

Then again, JEREMY I GOT YOUR GF TO LICK MY LOLLIPOP ;)
l-l-l-l-l-l-lick it like a lollipop :D

Epic photo, moments later, I lost Neptune (my phone)

I kinda like this photo of me, what do you guys think? :D

Still on the topic of Haans cause he came back from so far just to see us xD
We went over to his place for a gathering :)

Awesome people :)

Caption: ABOUT TO FAIL you'll never guess when its gonna happen...

As usual we did retarded stuff, like the crotch-thrust-while-blocking-face-with-pillow move

And whats a gathering without the epic group photo? xD

Besides Langkawi, I also managed to randomly go to genting for a one day trip.

Convo that brought us to genting -
J (02:00): Wanna go genting tmr?
B (02:00): Why not? :)

And so we went to genting the morning itself. Had a blast doing it

Friends who are random and awesomest xD
Note: David's Jizz-In-My-Pants face :D

The people I went with :D

waiting for one of the rides...
Notice (again): David's Ahem sucking face :D

And I went to Bon Odori, for those of you who don't know what Bon Odori is, its a festival celebrating the Japanese Culture and Dance. (From what I know lar, maybe its wrong >.<)
Went there because a very good friend of mine wanted to go, and we teman-ed her :)

Its basically a festival where people dress up in kimonos, yukatas and any other japanese traditional outfits you can find.

There were people dancing with fans together with the main performance which has drums and dancers in beautiful kimonos.

]

Hence the random picture of me with my very own... something... forgot the name >.<

But I took it off very soon afterwards. Don't ask me why xD

And my very very very old friend Yong Hui came to join us xD
She looks pretty in that yukata :D
Cause she just took off her braces at the time, she talked funny xD

To me, the celebration was so-so only, but the company was as awesome as usual if not more :D

After all that fun, its making me not want to go back to uni :(
I'm gonna miss all the people I've spent time with throughout the hols, you know who you are, we spent some really amazing times ;)

Speaking of which, this week was my first week of uni
Awesome sauce to see all my last sem friends again. xD
MISSED YOU GUYS SO MUCH :D
and omfg, first Design class and our lecturer said, let's go to Genting...
*ahhhhh* (angelic rawr)

Then he go and potong stim say that we're only going to the Mushroom Farm =.=
Wtf, just potong like that...

Summore we're not going there to eat... We're by-passing the Farm and going to an abandoned road to WALK 6km to an abandoned site..

Anyways, its gonna be interesting, and we're suppose to create a building or rest stop somewhere along the deserted road and at the site itself.

My other classes seem easy and we have one class per day, but the work loads gonna be double if not triple our last sem's according to our seniors.
I guess we'll be needing those free time to study and build models >.<

YOSH I'M SO HYPED UP FOR SECOND SEM~~~

Songs I've learned during the hols:
- The Greatest Story Ever Told
- Colour Blind
- Hero
- When I Look at You
- Neutron Star Collision
- 4 Chord Song
:D

If anyone is...

2010-07-23T00:01:00.001+08:00

still reading my blog, i wanna introduce you to the two most awesome people in my life
:)

First time...

2010-07-14T23:00:00.000+08:00

doing lok lok by the road side xD

Usually my mom will bring the ready made lok lok to our tables and let us eat.

but this time, i cooked all by myself in one of those mobile lok lok stores :D

I feel so ja kun now xD

<3

Did you know that...

2010-06-29T17:00:00.003+08:00

MY HOLIDAYS ARE FINALLY HERE~~~!!!

IM SO HAPPY~~~ DAMN HYPER~~~ MUAHAHAAHAH xD

So here are some things I did during my 16+ weeks of my Bachelor of Science (Honors)(Architecture) course
:D

ARCHITECTURAL SKIN~~

Not really a model... Let's call it a wearable model :D
Very retarded assignment... Its not called an ice breaking assignment for nothing...

HIDE AND PEEP MODEL~~

We were suppose to hide there and peep at the view...
Credits to my group who painstakingly cut all the small bits. (Yea, its not one whole piece)

CELEBRATION MODEL~~

This has to be the shiniest model I've done so far...
For people to celebrate stuff under it... And also interact with it when its near...
When the wind blows it can actually spin :D

Kudos to my team.. The lecturer loved our work :D

1:1 SCALE MODEL A.K.A. VERY FREAKING HUGE MODEL~~

We folded 20,000 (thats 20 k) pieces of magazine paper... Now every time I touch magazines I feel nostalgic.

These are the people who made it happen :)

Same as the 'hide and peep' model, it's made up of smaller parts (modular units)... twenty-freaking-thousand of them...

Next semester remind me to throw the pieces one by one at my team leader...

SAINT PAUL'S CATHEDRAL~~

Made entirely out of balsa wood... Slowly cut and paste every detail and corner of the building...
Took a team of 6 people 4 days to finish it... One of our finest, in terms of finesse, models yet... :D

PRIVATE MEDITATION AND VIEWING MODEL~~
SOMEONE wanted to see this so here I am posting it up :)

You can meditate in the dark room...

Watch the sunrise from the upper level...

(first person view of sunrise)

One of the hardest models I've done so far... Just because the walls have thickness and they are curved, the outside wall and the inside walls were all different in shape...
6 walls = 24 different surfaces to cut... That's not the hard part yet...
The hard part was that every wall had to be cut by trail and error...
In the end, the amount I had to cut, I could have done 2 models... It was that hard...
Had 4 near death experiences in this model alone...
Like I said, one of the hardest...
Then again, it's one of the model's I'm most proud of because of the personal effort I put in... :D

So that's it, whatever i show here was just 30% of what I've experienced in my 1st semester of degree, the rest is boring stuff like history, paperwork and exams, and also fun stuff like jokes, OMG moments and WTF moments that cant be written or shown in picture.

And there u have it, the past 16 weeks of my life in 15 mins :D

Now I really deserve a holiday :)

*hint hint*

Don't emo lar.. You emo, I'll also emo :(

In a small way...

2010-06-26T11:51:00.000+08:00

Our architecture course is like the "Saw" movie series... Why would you think we'd call it architorture?

Well, I'll give u the "fun" fact and you can just tell for yourself xD

F.F(Fun Fact) 1.
Quantity.
Saw has SIX (freaking) movies until now... the longest movie series so far... Of course Harry Potter will have 7... >.<
And our whole course is 6 semesters long... One for every movie...

F.F 2.
Villains.
There is a few guys who plot what type of riddles/tortures we have to go through. A.k.a The main villain engineer, the girl protege, the other guy who follows Saw...

So, let me introduce you to our lecturers! Mr. Kid, Mr. Ooi, Ms. Suja, Mrs. Salvi... and not forgetting the ones who best resembles Saw... Mr. Edwin Chomen. Who freaking gives us the hardest assignments.

F.F 3.
Victims.
In every Saw film there are people who get tortured whether its in a group or solo...

These people are US.

F.F 4.
Drama.
Some people in the movie try to work together, others think that going solo is the only way and not forgetting the leeches. Either way, there is massive amounts of backstabbing and quarrelling.

Our course has its share of drama.. like the movie there are people who go solo, those who want to work together, the people who leech off others in group work and those who work together just to stab you in the back... Not saying any names la, but you know who you are.

F.F 5.
Death.
In every Saw movie, there are people who do not make it to the end... and even if they do, they will die in the next movie. Only the strong ones survive the death game.

Well, our course has a drop out rate of 66%... So like the movie, those who don't drop out this semester, might drop out the next. Only the few will make it to the final semester. So far, from my foundation course of 70 people, I only saw 30 people in degree... Wonder how many will drop out this sem?

F.F 6.
Sleep. (or rather the lack of it)
In all the Saw movies. No one sleeps. think about it, no one gets tortured in their sleep.. this is not Freddy's world...

Just like the movie... We don't sleep... at least for a few assignments :D
Just last 3 days, I didn't sleep for 50+ hours.

So there you are... just a few things to show you we're living in a Saw universe of our own...

Muahahahahaahhahahaah

In architecture...

2010-06-24T17:00:00.000+08:00

Our work place can only be described in one word - MESSY

Masking tape is used as plasters...

In this case, blister preventers xD

We (HAVE TO) carry 4 things with us at all times.

i) Box to protect model. (yellow)
ii) Large bag for stationary, materials. (Black)
iii) Extra bag for other stuff. (Black with logo)
iv) T square

"Extra bag" MUST at all times have the following...

Sweater.. obvious reasons... extra shirt, handphone charger, towel, and other precious and important stuff.

Last but not least...
In architecture, we sleep in the afternoon for 2 hours an work through the night :)

(Thats my cousin Shaun btw... I was unconscious... i think he and my bro pakat =.=)

Good night people... the time now is 5 in the afternoon... Zzzzzz

Have you ever met someone who...

2010-06-19T21:50:00.000+08:00

Wears his heart on his sleeve,

Appreciates the smallest things,

Says that a good deed should be passed along,

Cares for the ones he love,

Doesn't think rom-coms are specific to gays and girls only,

Prefers Pink over Green,

Dreams big,

Is completely optimistic,

Tries his best at everything he does,

Enjoys a walk in the rain every once in awhile,

Leaps before he looks,

Remains

Reminds others why they should live for the future instead of looking back at the past,

Creates awkward situations just to see how people handle them,

Respect others,

Assumes he can change the world with every good action he makes,

Puts being happy and broke before rich and sad any day of his life,

Laughs at failure because it thought him something,

Calls people awesome because it's the truth,

Does a random act of kindness,

Thinks friends are the most important,

Prevents fights,

Fights for what he believes in,

Sings like no one is around,

Imagines a better world,

Decides to have morals in life,

Can drink and don't drive,

Believes in Good triumphing over Evil,

Acts randomly just to make people smile,

Splurges on friends and saves money on himself,

Feels that in every person there is some good,

Stands up for what he thinks is right,

Considers a smile to be the most powerful thing in the universe.

P.s. Toy Story 3 - Most. Awesome. Movie. Ever.

Can we pretend that...

2010-05-30T23:41:00.002+08:00

Airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars...

I could really use a wish right now....

For someone else...

I consider a day wasted when...

2010-05-28T00:00:00.000+08:00

I can't get a genuine laugh/smile out of another person.

Thankfully that has not happened yet

:)

P.S. If you thought Puss In Boots from Shrek couldn't get any cuter than this

Then you obviously have not seen "Shrek Forever After"

XD

Redang...

2010-05-04T10:31:00.001+08:00

Should

Be

Awesome

<3

My teenage years...

2010-04-23T08:49:00.001+08:00

Are almost at an end..
As of today, I'm one year away from not being a teenager... Depressing right?
I wonder how my dad feels now that he's one year away from being half a century old xD

Hahahah but this is not gonna be an emo post!!

This is the time where I reflect upon my life and say once again:

If I had a time machine I wouldn't change even a second of my life :)

I know there will be some haters saying - oh Ben, you're so in denial, how can your life be so perfect?

Well, I know nothing can be perfect, but whatever I've done whether its right or wrong, i can honestly say that I have no regrets doing it. I'm happy the right things happened and I'm happy I've learnt from my mistakes.

I can safely say my life is close to perfect. And i'll tell you why in a life of "Things Ben is Grateful For"

1) I have a loving family, my dad, mom and brother. True, we've been through a lot of hardships along the way, but all that ~~arguing~~ debating and ~~stabbing~~ fighting has made us create an even stronger bond as a family :)

2) I have the most awesome friends the world has ever seen. They would take a bullet for me... But not run to the fridge to get me a drink :(
Hahah, kidding, I have the most awesome friends la, I know I'm repeating this but I cannot stress this enough. Without my friends, I don't think I'll be here today.
From the awesome people I've known since standard 2, standard 3, standard 5, from 1, form 3 or the people I've met along the way, all the way up to the friends I've gained this year and the last, I'll treasure you guys for the rest of my life :)
Every single one of you have influence or shaped my life in one way or another. Some have more impact than the rest, but every one HAD an impact on my life :)
Whether you guys are reading this or not (you know who you are ;) ) I thank you from the bottom of my heart <3
(too many of you for me to post pictures, if I do, this post will be 4 websites long xD)

3) I'm doing the course I have a passion for, and soon be doing my passion as a ~~job~~ hobby. Heck, the reason why I changed it from job to hobby is because its gonna seem like that for me because I love what I'm doing. I'm going to do my best because my parents already let me enter the course I wanted to and I'm grateful for that.

4) I have a car. True, its not a Ferrari or a Lamborghini, but at least its a CLK :)
A Cute Little Kancil. ;) At least this little bugger gets me from A to B without the hassle of waiting for the bus or waiting for my parents to pick me up. I feel good sitting in my air conditioned car (fix d k? blowing cold air liao :P) and watching people on motorcycles go by.

5) I have a roof over my head, and food on the table. Sometimes the most basic of necessities are overlooked. My house may not be the biggest house on the block, but it's where I call home. Not some rented apartment or a hostel. And even though I don't eat caviar or smoked salmon every single day, I am grateful for the food my mom put on the table... Eventhough its oily and fatty and contradicting with my PROJECT REDANG!! Lol, no la, I'm still grateful. :)

Basically I'm grateful for how my life has gone by. I don't regret a single thing that I've done. And in a nut shell, isn't that what everyone aims for? Living a life without regrets :)

So I wanna ask you guys now...

What are you most grateful for? :)

<3

P.S. Happy happy birthday to me :)

P.P.S Happy birthday, daddy :)

Yea, i know, he shares the same birthday as me :)
Can you imagine the greatest present he got was a full 19 years ago? xD
And the most costly :P

Semester Break...

2010-04-16T22:46:00.000+08:00

Is finally here and I get to update my blog. Wheeee~~!! Just because of that I'm going to blog my heart out~~

Walaoeh, Uni is not easy on the body at all, damn alot of stuff happened since I last blogged, so if you people don't like words, please stop reading immediately :)

Seriously for the past few weeks we've been drowning in homework sketching, rendering (OMG HAND CRAMP) and also model making.

It also meant sleepless nights, contradictions, plenty of fun and the excessive amounts of sleep after all that xD

Since too many freaking things happened throughout the whole damn month, I'ma do a very boring type of numbering system so you guys can know each and every single thing I did every single minute of the day...
*Insert evil laugh here*

Uno) Sketches and rendering!!! Sigh, typical architorture class la, making us draw 10 sketches and 4 rendering pictures within a week. Being the kiasu group we were, we left the 4 rendering drawings until the night before the submission date.

Of course you'll procrastinate if your classmates who already finished told you they only used 3 hours for each drawing. Count with me people, 3 times 4 equals... ummm... less than one day larrrr~~

But what they DIDN'T tell us is that the freaking Stippling technique took freaking 10 hours to do!!! Each and every line has to be dotted!! CAN YOU HANDLE THAT?! I took freaking 9 hours man!!!*Bad word* Monotonous to the last degree >.<

After I finished that one drawing I think I still saw dots everywhere... Like in the letter 'i' and fullstops (.)
Don't have the picture right now but when I get it back from my lecturers I'll make sure I'll post it as high def as I can. Most probably DLSR quality, so I can show you guys that my course is NOT easy, unlike what most people think

The sketches were better la at least... Here are some, post all afterwards your eyes bleed with pain.

Then again the lecturer said mine were above average xD Damn happy~~ *head big*

Dos) Party!!! My brother from another mother had his belated birthday party last sat. As usual, I go there party only, so all the pictures are with him. And as usual his parties ROCK TO THE MAX! A shout out to that guy for being an awesome if not the most awesome friend any guy could have. Happy Belated Birthday again, bro! xD

Tres) Model!!! Muahaahh, the most fun and tiring thing to do in my course are the freaking models la xD We had to design a model to create a space for celebration.

Our model's concept was the Milky Way, inspired by outer space's uncountable shining stars and its basic spiral swirl. Like this

And thats where our baby came from :)

Thisis what it/she/him looks like xD

Thumbs up for Small Scale Human (SSH) ;3

Heres what it looks like from the top xD

And these are the AWESOME people who came up and/or help build the model :)

I love you guys :)

We had another model that suppose to be Hiding & Peeking, but I do not have pictures of that... surprisingly >.<

Quatro) MAKAN!!! Found out a really nice place to eat if you have rm20 to burn in one meal. I suggest you go to Sunway Pyramid and hunt for this shop called Pepper Lunch. They are currently the best fast food joint in my opinion.

And once again WILLIAM'S just keeps continuing to astound and astonish me with their dinner portions o.O

We (My bro, cousin and myself) Chicken Chop, Triple H, and Spaghetti Carbonara.

All as awesome as usual...

Freaking plate damn huge, can tell by proportion of spoon and fork... damn architectural terms >.<

Size of this plate freaking bigger than my cousin's head O.o

Five) Realization!!! That I can only count to 4 in Spanish >.<
That my animal is a beaver... for some unknown reason =.=
That Uni is not the same as college T.T
That I have to slim down more.
That I'm short... er than I thought I was
That the world is just awesome... *hums Discovery theme song*
That I have yet to do Number 6...
That I have exhausted my English and have to resort to using BM

Enam) Project Redang!!! OMG OMG OMG, this may be the most important thing right now. Assignments? Who needs them? Grades? They can wait. But this is the mother of all priorities because, OUR COURSE IS GOING TO REDANG!!! Officially obviously, and to choose a site for our next assignment.

Tell me again, how many courses can boast that they went to Pulau Redang for a site visit? How many other courses can say that the words "3 day 2 night stay at pulau redang" appears in their Semester Outline?

I think can safely say that only WE can lor :P

So be jealous, be very, very jealous xD

So whats Project Redang aka PR? It's out mission of a few of us in my course to slim down and/or buff up in time for the Redang trip which happens on the 4th of May. Another reason why I've been jogging at freaking 6 in the morning.

Anywyas, different people have different objectives for PR. Some wanna slim down, some wanna gain mass, and some just wanna gain weight. Anyhow, we're all pledging to look the best we can look by the 4th of May :)

And that's what PR is all about xD

So yea, to those that made it to the end of this post, congratulations, you've just waisted a few minutes of your lifeless life depending on your reading speed <3

Until next time, I love you guys xD

So tell me, what did you do or are planning to do this month??
:)

-[Benjamin]-

We made a COVER...

2010-03-20T18:51:00.000+08:00

Sort of la~~...

Hi to the 3 and a half people who still come and waste their time at my blog. You are the only reason why im not committing suicide right now xD

LOL, damn so emo xD

Anyways, I've not touched this thing for a freaking long time because of the assignments we were given.
First week got 3 assignments already, k? Uni is not easy xD

So today is my 2nd free day(actually still got assignment) and we decided, get this, to do a cover!

You must be thinking, Ben, your voice can ~~bring a dying cat back to life~~ bring down buildings and threaten the world with ear cancer. Why in the name of everything that is colourful would you do a cover? If you do a cover, youtube will instantly experience bankruptcy.

Ahhh, but what you guys don't know is that that has always been my life long dream - to bring down a major company.
So what better way than to do exactly what i'm doing? ;)

Joking la, people. I (fortunately for you guys) won't be singing, i'll be at the background being the "extra".

Check out the failed one we did this afternoon
I don't need to tell you who the hell ruined all this >;3

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDumpzqy4FU

Ala, dunno why cannot upload video.
for some reason i cannot find the button...
Please help xD

So yea, we're gonna do better ;3

OMG... Ben is...

2010-03-05T20:32:00.000+08:00

COOKING!
Jeng jeng jeng...

My mom lar!! Leave me at home with ingredients... All she told me was - fish, 5 minutes. Red bean and egg. Understand? *rushes off*

So what am i suppose to do? eat the fish within 5 minutes?

Mate the red bean and egg?!
I don't think so! I ain't no red bean match-maker!

So I decided to put my culinary "skills" to the test ^^

Faster hide your kids people... The few times Ben cooked, the food either
A) gave someone really bad stomach disorder
or
B) killed a man

So I really hope I get A... Or at least somewhere between A and B...
*prays to the felle up there*

Ok la, I'll admit sometimes I make disgusting stuff taste awesome.
Like that time I made He/She-Who-Cannot-Be-Named-Or-Shall-Be-Named-When-You-Ask-Me like Avocado Juice even though He/She didn't before
xD

Other than that, I can and will make awesome stuff disgusting... The sole reason why I didn't take up culinary arts
Don't want people to think - Wow! Looks so good! *eats* OMG! WHAT THE *BLEEP*!!! TASTES LIKE BEN!!!

o.O

Ish.. Sounds wrong... >.<

Anyways... Only during really drastic moments like ~~when I have no money and no food at home~~ now, will I try my luck at cooking... again...

I've actually made something edible... or at least it looks edible... kinda...

So if the next time you realize Ben doesn't walk among yourselves...
Tell the coroner...

C.O.D was the food...

So tell me...

What did YOU last cook? :)

Highlight off my day...

2010-03-04T20:28:00.000+08:00

was changing my dressing...

Warning, the following might be a lil bit graphic, viewer gis.. ah... what the heck...

ARGH INFECTED THUMB!!! >>>>

lol

This was kinda the extent of my injury...

Even after 24 hours of healing... the damn thing was still bleeding...

Shows you how deep the cut was

So i did this with one hand... yay me xD

Finally got a really clean dressing

My day very interesting hor? xD

Owh yea... i also went for physio today just for the heck of it xD

So what was the most mundane thing YOU did today? :)

Fainting...

2010-03-03T21:25:00.000+08:00

is what i didn't do when i saw my blade sink into the flesh of my thumb.

Nah, this isn't one of those traumatic experiences... neither is this one of those holy-shit-it-hurts-so-bad rants.

This is just a normal day in an (soon to be) architect's life...

So yea, today is the 2nd day of college and already I've gotten a bloody injury... Literally.

There we were, so enthusiastically doing our work when suddenly my blade jumped off my cutting mat, plunging itself into my thumb.

The moment I saw it, my mind went, Ah crap here comes the pain...

But surprisingly it wasn't as painful as it was bloody. I was expecting HOLY-BAD-WORD-BAD-WORD-BAD-WORD-BAD-WORD-&!^%#!@ type pain but all i felt was a lil nicked.

Then one of my friends, Name: Leonard Mak, literally jumped over a table n pulled me out the classroom door. I was pretty confused by what he was doing... And all i could here was.. Mumble mumble mumble... Ben, chill... Got blood woi... Chill... Mumble mumble... Toilet... Mumble...

Walao, the whole time I was just chilling there listening to Leonard freaking out n asking me to chill... ?.?

The felle took me around the whole damn building just to get to the elevator... when the other classmates rushed in to tell us the toilet was back in the classroom =.=

what to do... new class ma... never see before one...

So wash the wound d... to cut things short...

- Wound + Antiseptic Cream = >.<

- Bundle with multiple layers of mesh, cotton n sticky white paper thing like giant plaster.

- Water at LCS toilet is very dirty

- Someone took a video... Dunno who... have to find that guy and ~~kill him~~ get it from him so I can post it here

- Stock up on first aid kit items at home... found out I don't have cotton =.=

- Thumb still throbbing now

- I have awesome friends who run up and down staircases to get first aid kits, take me around buildings for fun when I'm injured *AHEMleonardmakAHEM*, take videos to post on youtube... Then again, what's the internet for if not to laugh at other people's misery? :)

- Finally have something to post after a very long pause from this blog

- Ate dinner

- There's someone behind you

- They're getting closer

- They're breathing down your neck

- If you're still reading this you don't have a life

- End

- Of

- This

- Post

- So tell me...

- What stupid stuff did YOU do on your first/second day of college/school? :)

- If you're still reading.... know one thing

Best picture i could find... Most of the pics were in my mom's cam.

Owh well, so like i said I've been stoning alot right now. Too lazy to do anything.

And my new years resolution isn't going anywhere xD
What was it, you say?

Don't laugh k?

Promise?

To get 6 packs by the end of my 3rd sem of architecture >.<>

But dammit, under all that mysterious flabby layer, there actually is a 6 pack.

Everything under there is hard... The problem is that weird... Soft... layer on top...

I can feel them already, the problem is that they're too shy to come out...

Those 200+ sit ups a day isn't working either.

Help!

lol

So my life is currently boring right now... Without anything to blog about...

I guess so is your's or else you wouldn't be here reading this would you? :D

End of OH-NINE

2009-12-31T10:42:00.010+08:00

Wow... How amazingly humbling that one awesome, kick-ass year has finally ended.

This year has got to be the most awesome year of my life yet.

But come to think of it, my life has been getting better and better as the years go by.

So far I've made very few 'thank you' post, but this might be the longest one yet. (If i can remember every single last one of you :))

To my FNBE peeps,

Thanks for EVERYTHING. And when I mean everything, I really do mean everything, good or bad :)
For the ton's of fun we all had.

For "decorating my CAR" on my birthday. (That was a great laugh.. "Hahaha, see this idiot who's car kena vandalized... Holy crap it's mine!!")

For all the college trips to "far off" places.

For the awesome camp.

For the pillow talks. (At camp and over-night college stays)

For the amazing display of creativity and randomness from every single one of you. (Especially my first sem Creative Thinking group - Leonard, Yi-Rui, Rach, MeiLing, Mark.)

For the sleepless-model-making nights.

For the mind maps. (Damn you Pn. Yati...)

For the retarded dancing *coughbobbycough*.

For the friends who came, for the friends who went and for the friends who are going to leave :(

(Glenda, Steph, Shukri, and the rest, *insert people who are going to leave's name here*)

AND FINALLY, for all the laughs that we had, which no amount of laughing gas can every reproduce in the whole history of man-kind.

We really had an undeniably awesome year. First and second semester in all.

GO FIRST YEAR FNBE!! WE ROCK SO HARD!!!

To my gang of 5++ Years, "Domo-kun" Leong, "Evowei" Qian Wei, Khai "Kok", Sam Sum and Haans.

Thanks for the tons of fun we've had this year, however limited they may be.

For the massive amounts of laughs Sam's retarded mouth gave us. (Which, looking back, pawns my FNBE statement x10000)

For sticking with me through think and thin.

For the retarded pulled a "Hanzo" Technic.

For Jerleong's parties where chaos was abundant.

For KhaiYii's parties where puking from OD-ing was the norm.

For having pillow talks. (Damn that sounded gay)

For the strip poker nights.

For the trips to Jogoya.

For William's.

For arguing at every possible place - dining room, toilet, cars, hotel lobbies. xD

For the awesome last minute road trip to the end's of the earth and back... With one missing comrade.

For the room which we could have had it... here and here and here and here and here... and here and here and where Ben is, and here and there.

For the nvm-it's-super-cheap-everything-big-omfg-it's-rm90-for-3-dishes dinner.

For the night of my brother's party. Where we talked as usual xD

I will cherish everything moment I've spent with you guys for the rest of my life.

(Sadly I have no pics of us cause I'm not the photographer in the group.)

Not forgetting the people who made my Sundays.

The people from SJBA.

It was fun while it lasted, we have officially graduated from the school.

Every part of me still wished that that would not and did not happen :(

Thanks for making my Sundays bright with happiness.

For the SPCA trip.

For the Taipeng trip.

For BATHING together.

For the parties at various places.

For the mamak times.

For the great times we had doing the mural.

For the car washes.

For all the fun.

For the farewell parties.

For Teacher Siok Hoon.

For the final MJ tribute dance.

Ton's of Metta go out to all of you guys for teaching me loads and bearing our Sunday's together :)

And one hell of a thanks to another important person in my life...

All I can say is that: you really made my life worth living <3

:)

And with that, I can honestly say I love every single last one of you. You guys have no idea how much of an impact you have made in my life however big or small.

THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART

A wonderful end to this awesome year,

We're stoke full of highness and ready to cheer.

We can't deny and we can't pretend,

It's good-bye to '09 and HELLO to 2 thousand and 10.

Cheer's people

And have an awesome

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
So, what's YOUR new year's resolution?

Hey hey it's the 20th

2009-12-20T07:39:00.000+08:00

Qian, I thought u wanna camp at my place today one? xD

Over...

2009-12-10T17:56:00.003+08:00

My life.. as I know it... as oblivious it is to every single one of you... is now... over...

MUAHAHAAHH

JOKING LAR! FINALS ARE OVER MAN!!

FINALLY OVER!!! AAHAHAHAH

And now!!! PRESENTING 2 AND A HALF MONTHS OF PURE AND INTENSE...

STONING!!!

This picture just looks so damn wrong...

Yes, people I have two and a half months of freaking sem break... It boggles my mind as to how I'm gonna spend it.

As for yesterday, right after the last paper of my sem (damn moral) I headed down with the Bro's to...

Not Blitz zone, but...

ANOTHER cyber cafe down the road

And we played non other than

LEFT 4 DEAD 2

Omg it was literally bloody awesome

>.< Lame sial, Ben

Anyways, thats like... Day one of lets see...

Day 1 of 78 days of hols...

Today was awfully productive... Sadly...

Managed to clean my pig-sty of a study room and now it looks like an OCD girl just went through it.

Owh and did I mention the two japanese girls coming as student exchangees to my place on the 20th of Dec onwards?

Yea I know what you're thinking.. ^^

I also want them to look like that. But life's unfair >.<|||

Hmmm... Looks like I have more to do than expected xD

Til the next time I'm bored, PEACE OUT PEOPLE!!!

I have a goal to accomplish by the end of the hols

Lots of details tomorrow xD

Better go practice my japanese now :)

Very busy

2009-11-23T19:15:00.003+08:00

Omg, final assignments are coming in, as usual, all at the same time.

Why?

Owh, I don't know... Maybe its because every lecturer thinks that their class is the only class in the entire semester...

Or maybe Taylor's just wanna have fun with us..

WHO WILL EVER KNOW?!

And not only that, finals are just around the corner

So, yea... Do assignments + study, ok, that's doable

SO!!
I'm gonna be busy until the 7th of dec = no blog posts for now.

Seeing as this might not effect the number of people reading this blog, which is zero... Or close to it, I don't even know why I'm posting this.

OWH YEA!!
AND A VERY HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY TO MY GOOD FRIEND>>>
INEZ LOW!!

Legal jor xD

Sorry I couldn't do a proper shout out... no time >.<

But for now,

See you guys :)

What happened to college being filled with parties and girls?

I guess not in Malaysia la xD

10 random things I hate

2009-11-11T22:51:00.005+08:00

In no specific order...

1. I hate it when people talk about me behind my back. If you wanna say it, say it in my face. :)

2. I hate it when my cousin leaves the heater on and the water scalds my back. It's not him I hate, its the part where I assume that cold water is coming out only to find out that I'm wrong and jump away from the shower.

3. I hate people who take their mood out on other unsuspecting, innocent people. If you think the world hates you, that's your problem, you don't have to make everyone around you feel the same way.

4. I hate heavy or death metal with the singer screaming like a little girl. If you wanna make me listen to them, get me the minus one version, I love their guitar rifts and solos.

5. I hate it when I get Writer's Block when I'm doing an assignment. It wastes time and creates this "Stoning moment" for the next 6 to 9 minutes.

6. I hate it when my car becomes unbearably hot in the heat wave season and my car air-cond can't cope with it. But then again, beggars can't be choosers.

7. I hate it when I'm wearing something black and the sun suddenly comes out of the clouds and turns my shirt into an awesome absorber of heat. I hate it even more when I tell myself not to wear black on that day, forget, and realize that my closet consists of 87 percent of black clothing...

8. I hate it when people hate me for being too happy all the time. Honestly, that does happen... Occasionally. Refer to no. 3, I can't be a hypocrite can I? :D

9. I hate it when motorcyclists cut in and out of lanes and even staying in the middle of the road. If you want to stay alive around me, please stick to the dotted lines on the floor and out of my way.

10. I hate it when the rain waits for you to plan something, get ready for that something, then decides to ruin everything by coming down at he most inconvenient moment... Like, damn you rain!! 6-7 is my basketball time!!!

So yea... 10 random things I hate personally.

Who ever reads this is tagged :)

Sneaky, aren't I? xD

For some reason, I have nothing to post here...

In this tiny grey place xD

Is it gay for a guy to cry?

2009-11-11T10:10:00.000+08:00

Just a question...

Just wondering >.<

Sigh...

The Holidays

2009-09-26T19:10:00.004+08:00

And so we begin a week long break from col...

WHAT THE?! ITS OVER?!

Omg... Its already been a week of hols... A damn unproductive week...

Baby's in Penang and I have limited people to bug who would entertain me... So, yea... What the hell did I do this holiday?!

Let's break it down shall we?

20% Sleeping... 40% stoning... 30% eating and 10% yamcha...

Scratch that... 29.9% eating and 0.1% exercising... or at least tried to >.<

I guess with 168 hours to spend, your times pretty limited, huh, Ben? >.<

Yea, basically i didn't do anything this hols besides catching up with the old gang and talking... Sleeping... Smsing... Dota-ing... Did I mention sleeping?

I also spent an amazing day with her... Which was awesome :)

oo ooo oo and I did get to watch a really good movie over the past week

Was pretty amazing and hilarious, it gets you thinking what men and women really want in their partners.

Haven't watched it yet? Then go!! It's a must see!!!

Most EPIC line of the movie - "So how often do you flick the bean?"

ROFLMAO

Hahahah, going out with the guys to do something "exciting" as Qian puts it...

Ciaoz people!!

Love you, babe :)

Still missing you as much as ever

*Secret Handshake* :P

Pure Awesomeness =)

Reminiscing

2009-08-10T19:47:00.007+08:00

I was just putting my plate down on the dinning table when I realize... Hmmm... Lunch wouldn't be complete without some tv :)

So i went over and switched on the tv, and just so happen that the channel was on Disney...

And of all the movies they could have played, they decided on one of my favourites:

Wall-E

Swaying off a lil' off topic, Wall-E, if any of u guys out there reading my blog who's been living under a rock for the past 5 to 6 years, is one of many Disney Pixar's memorable CG movies. It's a story about the not-so-distant future of humans polluting the Earth so much that we are forced to leave Earth in a gigantic space ship and allow these robots - Wall-Es, to clean up our waste. The main character, Wall-E, who is the last of its kind, finds true love along the way while still being able to save the human race from utter destruction...

Or that's what I can interpret... :)

Back to the topic, watching Wall-E really thought me many things, as do most of the movies I've watched in my life time.

But the most important thing that Wall-E thought me... was that i was

One, either a freaking genius, because I could understand every single thing they were trying to say in their robot language...

Or two, that I'm becoming retarded and probably on a mental breaking down because I could understand every single thing they were trying to say in their robot language...

But seriously, Wall-E was an excellent movie and the one with the best graphics by far.

Another thing i realized during dinner was this guy...

Yes.. this guy...

He's the dude that probably become president if he ran for it....

That is to say, If children could vote ...

SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS

Because this guy has been winning the children's choice award to the past 5 years... 5 damn years... you would think after 10 years of SpongeBob continuously running, Nickelodeon would put a stop to it before children actually paste sponges on themselves on Halloween...

Wait, what? They're already doing that?

...

No wonder he looks miserable...

But wait!!! I'm not trying to insult SB in anyway...

Don't get me wrong... I love the little yellow bugger... my favourite cartoon since I was like... ever...

On the contrary... I believe its just time for him to step down...

And let this guy have a try at it...

PATRICK STAR

Give his a spin off or something...

Who ever wouldn't like a fat, high self esteem, stupid, half-naked, flowery-pants-wearing, lazy and above all, PINK, man for their idol? I wouldn't mind...

He is currently THE man... In my opinion...

isn't he cuuuuteee~~ ;3

I love this picture...

I guess what I'm trying to say is that do what u want to do when u want to do... Because once that moment is gone... There's no turning back the clock.. and what ever you didn't do, you'll be regretting it for the rest of your life...

Take it from YES MAN xD

I LOVE YOU, MY DEAR!!!

Dunno who i'm talking about oso...

Getting delusional...

Hahahahaah

GO PATRICK!!!

Ice skating tomorrow... AWESOME!!!

I'm sorrwwee ;3

2009-08-06T16:47:00.005+08:00

It come to my attention that my post on laughing gas hurt people's feelings...

Awwwww...

And i just wanted to say that I'm genuinely sorry and whatever i did was just for laughs...

I didn't mean to hurt anyone in anyway.

And to prove it, I've deleted that post already :)

Believe me... would these eyes lie?

And for the next 30 seconds I'll post cute pictures to show you guys how genuinely sorry i am ;3

I have no idea what does cuteness have to with my bring sorry.... Oh well :)

OMG!!! SSOOOO CUUUUUTE~~~!!!

DAMMIT I WANT THEM!!!

Of my life right now...

2009-07-26T19:02:00.002+08:00

Ahhhhhh... My blog getting dusty jor...

Dun really have any mood to blog la... Dunno la.. just no mood la...

Don't get me wrong.. I'm not emo at the moment..

Have mood to do everything else but... Just... Not... Blogging...

Anyways...

Just watched "Obssesed" last Friday with 3 other people from my FNBE.

It was sucky la... Don't watch whatever you do...

Giving it 1 out of 17 stars... Why 17? Dunno... Random...

Cause if you're expecting an anction packed cat fight?

Don't bother, just watch the advertisements... All the action is in there...

The whole hour before that was about some misunderstanding between husband and wife leading up to the cat fight...

Which surprisingly featured a pantsless Ali Carter and a very low-cut Beyonce Knowles

But thats about all the excitement in the movie...

Anyways...

The one movie I'm looking forward to is Transformers...

YES!!! I HAVEN'T WATCHED IT YET!!!!

YES!!! START LAUGHING!!!

PETHETIC, I KNOW!!!

Anyone wanna teman?
T.T

Shit man.. Megan damn hot la... *Stares at above picture again...*

*Drools*

Sigh... Really no mood...

So short nia...

Missing someone from my past...

Hoping she'll not stay there long...

I wanna see you la...

Zzzzz....

Design Principle

2009-07-14T21:56:00.004+08:00

Woweee, it's been awhile since I've touched this thing.

Well, Semester 2 of my FNBE course is underway and already I'm dreading a class - DESIGN PRINCIPLE.

The class is all about DRAWING.

What's the problem? You may ask... Aren't you in Architecture? That's what you signed up for right?

Well, yes to both those questions. But still, that IS the problem! In that class, you do nothing BUT drawing!!

And when I mean drawing, I don't mean one page of scenic drawing and then end of story...

I mean, holy-crap-my-wrist-hurts-and-I-have-2-more-super-detailed-pictures-to-draw type drawing.

We also had to give our drawings titles. I just crapped every single one.

For example... The following pictures have been done in the past 2 days...

EMPHASIS ON TWO

"SPINNEY" THE BELT BUCKLE

This is my actual belt buckle and also one of my first drawings. AND IT SPINS!!! Damn semangat ma... Took me 1 hour to sketch and RENDER this... After this, not semangat liao...

DROUGHT

Then, I became semangat AGAIN! @.@ Drew this with nothing but poking the paper. poke-poke-poke-poke... SUPER-poke... po-po-po-pokerface
Want the detailed version? Come find me :P

Took non-stop 20 minutes of poking to finish.

THE PSYCHIC'S EYE

Beside inanimate objects, we also had to try drawing human body parts. Lost my semangat-ness in this drawing... My supposedly-super-detailed eye didn't go as planned. Supposed to be way, way , way more detailed than this...

WALL OBSERVATION

We did this in class in under 5 minutes (supposedly...) Notice my 3rd upper window is brighter than my 2nd upper window when it should be darker... Failed there... 5 minutes... Can't help that...

The next few drawings had to be done under 5 minutes as well...

CURSE OF CURVES

And just when we thought we could rest our tired arms and hands, our lecturer had to go give us homework to do :)
Surprisingly I did this in 3 minutes...(Time's in the bottom right corner) Not that much detail, but hey, she said "sketch" only :P

Developed a blister on my 3rd finger though...

CORRIDOR, LUMINATED

I failed to do this one under 5 minutes, took me too long to get the shading of light coming through just nice. Went semangat just long enough to finish this just under 10 minutes xD

BLINDING BEAM

Again, I realize lighting is really hard to draw with pencil. This had only one source of light but it was hard nonetheless. Summore the details of the wall had to follow the picture. At least I'm honest to tell my lecturer I didn't finish this within the time limit :P

Bet lost of people will be cheating. Only a super geng artist can sketch within 5 minutes.

Who ever you are, who can do that, I really salute you :P

There, my post for the time being, until I get the mood to do another post, have a great story to tell, or just get another person to bug me to write a post :P

Owh! And Introduction to Business is really, really boring... But that's another story ;)

Yes, I mean you, Jia Ying :P

Most of my drawings aren't posted...
Those are just 50% of them...
Walao... wrist damn painful after typing this...

I LOVE PINK HIPPOS!!!
random...

No time lehhh..

2009-07-04T16:02:00.005+08:00

Seriously no time to update my blog, so ima do a quickie here

Went to watch

ICE AGE 3 - DAWN OF THE DINOSAURS

It was freaking AWESOME!!!

Chill, no spoiler here other than what you'd get to see on the preview

Loved all the cute little animals :3

The baby T-Rexs were the best!!

Awww, they are so cute, yes they are!!

There were tons of little baby animals in this movie

All of them were so awesome-ly cute!!

Especially, Manny's new BABY!!!

CUTEEEEE X10,0000

Don't have the pictures if "it" here. Won't tell you if it's a boy or a girl. You'll have to watch the movie to find out xD

And, of course, IT WAS HILARIOUS AS HELL!!!

Laughed my ass off the entire movie. Almost fell of my seat twice.

It was THAT gut busting-ly funny, seriously.

What made the movie funnier was how they used the zooming in and out effect... LOL

You'll get what i mean when you watch it xD

Buck:"I call it.... RUDY!"
Manny:"Oh, phew.. I thought it was gonna be something terrifying like... Sheldon... or... Tim..."

AHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

Final Final Final Final Final Final PROJECT!!!

2009-06-11T22:25:00.005+08:00

HOLY CRAP!!!

IT'S FINALLY OVER!!!

After a few nights... Hours, I mean... of non-stop W.O.A.H. (WORKING OUR ASSES HARD!!!), My team of 7 extremely talented individuals have finally finished our, what our lecturer calls it as...

"FINAL FINAL final Project"

So, here's the thing... We have to take our clothes off!!

LOL... Random!! HIGH LIAO!!

I mean, here's the thing, our project was to produce an INSTALLATION in a particular place of our college.

The key word here is INSTALLATION, people. It means it can't be just a normal abstract piece of useless shit collecting dust.

It HAS to be a piece of USEFUL shit collecting dust...

Means that it has to have FORM and FUNCTION while having people INTERACT with it. (See how I'm highlighting all the words we have learnt to use to bull shit??)

So... Here it is!!

I PRESENT TO YOU, OUR PROJECT NAMED...

"THE REMINDER BIN"

We are gonna explain... or crap... Instead of being a recycling bin, which is so overrated, our REMINDER BIN's green cover, which is the sign for recycling, reminds people to recycle the stuff they have in their hands if possible.

So, to get it right, it's a RUBBISH bin... not a RECYCLE bin...
Again... It's a RUBBISH bin, REMINDING people to recycle...

Get it? Got it? Doubt it...

Anyways...

So crappy right?!

BUT WE DON'T CARE!!!

CUZ IT CAN DO THIS!!!

IT FREAKING SPINS!!!

MUAHAAHAHAHAH!!!

BE JEALOUS!!!

Damn Freaking High!!!
I think I've just created an awesome new acronym... W.O.A.H (Working Our Asses Hard)
I'm really high...
SERIOUSLY!!!!

Potong la, next week finals...

Zeng: Terminator..

Worst 24 hours of my life...

2009-05-18T18:30:00.004+08:00

I will try very hard not to swear in this post...

It all started when i dislocated my shoulder 22 hours ago...

18:30 - I was screaming in pain as my shoulder suddenly had this thought:"Hmm... Let me see how much pain i can cause to Ben."

18:40 - My shoulder popped back in with the help of one of my neighbours.

18:45 - Back at home, used an ice pack to ease the pain and swelling.

19:15 - Parents came home. Scolded me even though they saw me in pain. Some sadistic side of them...

19:45 - Took 10 minutes to take my shirt off, another half an hour to bathe...

20:00 - Went down to eat dinner. Kena scolded by parents because i took "too long" to bathe -.-

21:50 - Mei Ling said tomorrow had to go to college early to make the video for our project.

22:10 - Smsed Rachel to tell her that we had to go early... Confirmed with Leonard through sms.

02:30 - Woke up cause my stomach also decided to do what my shoulder did. Had cramps throughout the night. Went to toilet 4 (or was it 5? Dunno, lost count...)

07:30 - Still awake due to stomach cramps... Think it was food poisoning... But when i wanted to go to my mom to fetch me to the hospital, it subsided... Only to be replaced by my shoulder...

08:00 - Spent the past half an hour shifting in my bed as to not let my arm be trapped between my body and my bed in case it dislocates again....

08:05 - Phone alarm rang... Gawd darn it... Need to get ready to go to college... Checked phone for confirmation sms from Leonard or anyone else... None, so I assumed that they didn't change their plan.

08:55 - Reached college. On the way walking to college from the car park, smsed Mei Ling to ask her where we were meeting. She told me that they decided to discuss during Construction Industry. (one of our classes) @.@ WTF?! Why the hell wasn't I informed?!

09:10 - Takan waste petrol to drive back home again... So i went to the library to sleep since i only slept for 3 hours last night...

10:30 - The library chairs are comfortable but didn't get to sleep because of the noise ( yea, our library is noisy...) Stoned for the next 2 hours wasting my time...

12:30 - Decided to go down to eat... (our library is on the 10th floor) My stomach took a turn for the worse and i spent half an hour in the cleanest cubical i could find... Not so clean after i left...

13:00 - No mood to eat liao... Stomach damn 7 painful. Suddenly got the urge to eat ice cream like a pregnant woman...

13:05 - Arrived at 7Eleven, met Leonard (the one that DIDN'T FFK ME) then i went to by ice cream.

13:30 - My so called "teammates" arrived. All damn happy... That time I damn tak syiok that they ffk me already... To add insult to injury, i found out they went to Sunway Pyramid without me...

Walao.. like that called FRIENDS ar?! Ask me come early, then ask me go home... then go pyramid without me... wtf man...

I was so semangat to come to college on time eventhough I didn't sleep at all last night... I trusted you guys to be there... And then you guys did this to me...

Emo whole day in class lor... what to do?

If i shrug it off, they will think:" Aiya, this Ben tidak apa one lar, ffk him oso nvm... Just say sorry then he happy happy liao mah... As usual ma... Can trample on him cause he's a carpet mah... No biggie..."

The worst thing is that NONE of them even smsed me to say that all their plans canceled liao...

All forget about me liao...

"Huh, Benjamin? Who's that?"

What to do... If you guys dowan me to go then say lar... If i irritate you guys then say lar...

I put my trust in you guys... and then you betrayed my trust...

Answer me this...

HOW AM I EVER GONNA TRUST YOU GUYS GAIN?!

Wow... this pain is worse than getting kicked in the nuts, I tell you...

Damn disappointing...

Sometimes, I just feel like giving "life" the finger...

Now, I'm damn sick... Shivering in my bed...
Damn cold...

That so NOT kewl!!!

2009-05-17T21:05:00.004+08:00

Few of you know the reason behind my blog name being "That's So KEWL!!!"

Well, today, i'm gonna tell you about the "history" of my blog title....

It all started 4 very long months ago, when a little boy named Benjamin, set foot in The Lion's International Youth Camp (LIYC) of New Zealand.

There, he met a whole bunch of really awesome people and made life long friends.

One fine day, in the middle of the stay, to be exact, Benjamin went to ride on something called "The Luge"

There, he "accidentally" went too fast, and slammed into a brickwall... Literally... He ended up scaring his knee, which had a big chunk of meat gone, and dislocating his shoulder in the process...

A fraction of a second passed as Benjamin's eyes grew wide in realizing that he had dislocated his shoulder...

A friend in front (Tim) slowed down to see if anything was wrong. And the conversation went like this...

Tim:" You OK there, bro?" (picture a southern New Zealand eccent)
Ben:" Not really... I think I broke my arm!!!"
Tim:" You sure? Can you move it?"
Ben:" Nope.. I think realy broke it!!"

Tim:" Hold on, bro."

*POP*

Ben:" OMG!!! Shit!!!" *pants* pants* "I think I'm alright, bro!!"
Tim:" What?"
Ben:" I think i just dislocated it!! It popped back in!!"
Tim:" Really?"
Ben" Yea!! HOLY SHIT!! THAT'S SO COOL!!!"

And the rest is history... A few hours after that incident, the whole camp knew about Benjamin's shoulder... and he's tag line "that's so kewl"

And his shoulder became

LEGENDARY!!!

lol... and that, my friends... is how my blog name came about...

Now, back to the future...

I DISLOCATED MY SHOULDER AGAIN TODAY!!!

Just by putting up my right arm and fast to ask for the ball... GAY RIGHT?!

But it wasn't an instant recovery like the last time... I was screaming in pain for at least 5 minutes, which seemed like 5 years to me, before my shoulder was miraculasly popped back...

It wasn't as cool as last time... For one thing, there was a few thousand times more pain this time...

And now... my shoulder feels so tender... I'm afraid that I'll dislocate it again in my sleep...

Speaking of sleeping... i feel damn tired... ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

I'm lovin' it... NOT

2009-05-12T18:43:00.004+08:00

Ba da ba dada... I'm lo... WTF @.@

Omg... McD has reduced the size of it's McFlurry!!!

From this...

To THIS!!!

It has become uber cute!!!

Wtf... So small... Eat what?!

Its even smaller than the medium sized drink!!!

Look at the spoon compared to the damn cup... The spoon is still the same size btw... Which makes the cup seem even smaller!!!

Some more the cup only filled half... =.=

I kena con by McD today...

P.S. Happy belated Birthday, Nick!!!

Yea... this a-hole... i mean... Friend...

no la... maybe a-hole...

And... I'll promise i'll get a less fugly photo of you...

If i can find one, that is...

WAH.... SO DAMN LONG!!!!

2009-05-09T11:57:00.004+08:00

WTH WERE YOU GUYS THINKING WHEN YOU READ THE TITLE?!
:X LOL

Anyways... 1st and foremost... SCREW STEAMMYX!!! Why, you ask? Cause my internet was down since Sunday and when i called them up they said it was "maintenance" issue... Will be done in 24 hours

48 HOURS LATER... My internet was still down... Realized I KENA CON 99!!!
(CON JOB #1)

Call streammyx up again... Said my whole usj area got "major breakdown"... Can be up and running in 5 working days...

After that call, i went to play basketball and met up with my neighbour, justine. Told him about my problem and he answered me in one line. "HUH?! I was just surfing the net just now finding new por... Nevermind..."

@.@
(CON JOB #2)

Dammit... Streammyx screwing with me!!!

So, my dad pissed liao... Cannot go online to do his work... He called up streammyx and ordered them to send one guy over to fix our line... And i tell you... His modem is damn spacial 1...

When he connected his modem to my internet... can work...
Switch back to mine... cannot work...
Switch back to his... can work...
Switch a NEW modem... cannot work... @.@ WTF?!

So in the end... With him doing his magic... My internet can finally work!!!
One draw back is that it now takes me HALF AN HOUR to connect to the damn network...

SO....

SCREW STREAMMYX!!!

Now that I've let all my anger out...
Let's go back to my life...

Let's see... what have i done since my last post...

Went to eat at Sushi Station... rm20 bucks buffet... Mediocre...

And then... and then... Hmmmm... My life's pretty repetitive so far... going to college... having fun with friends... nothing out of the ordinary so far...

OH YEA!!!

MY PARENTS THINK I SMOKE!!!

WTF!!!

They said they found a cigerette bud in my toilet @.@
How the hell did it get there?!

And also... Am I THAT dumb to leave evidence that i did something bad in such an obvious place?!

And they said there was cigarette smell in my brother's bathroom!!
@.@

Turned out to be one of my deodorants i got from New Zealand... My dad thinks it smells like cigarette... Walaoeh...

And I bet that many of you know how much of an anti-smoker I am... Of course i don't smoke...
Dammit, I won't even go SHISHA with the guys la...

If i remember correctly, i even bet with one of my friends (ju-ee) that i won't smoke forever and he'll gimme RM10k if i achieved that...

Ahhh... Dammit la... I DON'T SMOKE!!!

Random Post

2009-04-02T20:16:00.002+08:00

This is a totally random short post because....

My friend... I don't wanna say her name... Wanted me to post a picture of my hair colour...

Even though i told her so many times that my hair didn't change colour after I dyed it.

So, here's proof that it DIDN'T change!!!SEE?!

Notice, I used my AWESOME PHONE to take this picture :P

GO 5800!!!

RX8!!! Oh, and april fools xD

2009-04-01T18:21:00.004+08:00

Yes... the RX8 will come later...

But first!!!

I woke up early to dye my hair today. WOOOT!!

Spent like... an hour and a half doing that...

In the end, my hair was too damn black and now... It only has a brown tint to it... Only in the sun...

So much for wanting to be lala eh?

A bit of a disappointment but hey, how many guys can say they've dyed their own hair?

Anywho, half of my FNBE (Foundation in Natural and Built Environment) Class went ice skating in Pyramid today. Glad to say we had tons of fun.

The place was so damn empty that we could play tag in the ice rink.

After that I played a prank on Je Yue. Couldn't help it... It was April Fools for god's sake!!!

It all started when I really lost the ticket to get out of Pyramid's parking lot. So, there I was (with David) at the office telling the guy that i lost my ticket when suddenly.... The ticket appeared in my wallet!! Like magic!!

So, I collaberated with David to prank them by saying that we had to go to the back of the Parking lot to sign some documents and that it needed 2 hours to process...

Mind you, we had a class trip in half an hour... So, Je Yue was pretty much on the verge of total dissapointment...

But I turned into the exit and magically whipped out the ticket I "lost" and slot it in the machine xD

~~GRAND FINALE~~

"APRIL FOOLS!!!"

I said, while turning to the passenger seat just in time to see Je Yue's face.

AND OMG, WAS IT EPIC!!!!

His eyes almost burst out of his socket!! He had that holy-shit-I'm-gonna-strangle-you look.

That was an awesome April fools prank!!!

Unlike Rachel's.... Which was totally lame... I mean... Funny... Just check it out...

JUST CLICK IT!!! >>> http://rainbowsandhearts.blogspot.com/

Fast forward to the time we came back from the trip, we, Rach and I, got to see Leonard's RX8!!!

I FREAKING SAT IN AN RX8!!

I wonder how many people in the world can say that... A lot, I'll bet...

... And i'm one of them =P

Omg... The car was super sexy!!! And listen to the way it purres... Holy crap...
That's Rach in the car.... She wouldn't come out cause it was so damn AWESOME!!!
The RX8 had a super sexy interior. A marvel of car design...

Blood red and black!! My favourite colour combination!!! AWESOME!!!

Leonard's hand (who else?!) in my picture... Dammit... And as you can see on the right, just below Leonard's hand, the air-cond hole design? Yea, Myvi STOLE IT!!!
COME ON MALAYSIA!!! HOW LOW CAN YOU GET?! SEE?!

Bottom line, Myvi sucks, RX8 TOTALLY ROCKS!!!

To dye or not to dye?

2009-03-31T22:40:00.000+08:00

Hmmmm... After 5 months of procrastination.

I've finally decided to dye my hair, ya'll!!

And, no, it won't be green like my font because that would be just gay.

Anyways, I've decided to go with the colour PURPLE.

Nah... Too "lala". I'll just go with: COPPER INTENSIVE

Awesome name woi!!

Yea, I don't know whats that colour either... It was written on the box I bought.

And, yes, I did go out and buy a do-it-yourself colouring kit as i didn't want to spend triple digits just colouring my hair...

Here's proof that I bought the box!!! I mean... hair dye...

And now... It's time to DO IT!!!

Ahh... Crap... it's too late...

Maybe I'll do it tomorrow xD

AWESOME!!!

2009-03-30T23:59:00.003+08:00

*Drum roll*

TAAA DDAAA!!!

I finally changed the layout of my blog!!

NOW IT'S AWESOME!!!

I know, those heavymetal fans are thinking... why does it look so familiar with the Avenged Sevenfold album cover...

my reason is that it is purely COINCIDENTAL

So don't get any ideas that I think Avenged Sevenfold rocks or anything like that.

I was just trying to find a really YENG white background... And I found it!!

WOOOTT!!!

feel free to spam me xD

SPECIAL THANKS TO MY AWESOME FRIEND WHO HELPED ME IN THIS...

~~JIA YING~~

Party at Ben's place!!!

2009-03-29T23:00:00.000+08:00

Made you look =P

Nah... The title was just to get your attention =P

Actually I had a gathering this morning at my place for my Sunday School peeps xD

We were SUPPOSE to be practicing the songs and the play we were gonna do...

But somehow... Left4Dead came into the picture... and so did this video. Freaking funny =P

We did SOME work, though.... Mostly singing and discussing the play and designing our class t-shirts...

Did I say we discussed the play??

K, cool...

So anyways, the guys went home after 1 pm and i was left at home with nothing to do...

Oh yea!!! My friend, ~*JJ*~ (sorry I stole this, her signature sign...)

lent to me this book...

I was told that this was better than the movie (which I cried at... Shuddup... )

So, we'll see...

OMG!!! IS THE BOOK BENT AT THE TOP RIGHT CORNER?! HOLY CRAP, SHE'LL KILL ME!!!!!!!!!

Nah... false alarm...

=P

Thank god it's Friday...

2009-03-27T20:23:00.005+08:00

Woooott!!!

After much delay and procrastination we finally passed up our Creative Thinking report!

Awesome!!! Now we're free for the week end!!!

Before that, with it being a Friday today, we had a 2-3hour break between classes... So my Creative Thinking team (Leonard, Ray, Rachel, MeiLing and myself) went to Pyramid to eat lunch.

Mark missed out as he was still rushing his project.... or playing pool...
Either or...

We decided to screw Wendy's and went to Carl's Jr. instead.

They had really funny slogans...One more was: "Screw the Diet!!!"

Our lucky numbers...

The burgers there were freaking awesome!!!

The fries were even better!!! Way way way... better than McD's

Leonard and Ray came up with the idea of putting tons of pepper in the chili sauce to be eaten with the french fries...

Amazingly, it tasted AWESOME!!!

So awesome in fact, that Rachel, MeiLing and I did it to our chili/tomato sauce
xD

This was how clean we were...
If you ever have 20 - 25 bucks to burn on lunch, I really suggest you go to Carl's Jr. as it is really worth it.

Oh yea, I just remembered...

Rachel had a really freeeeaaaaaking cute soft toy doggie in her car.... OMG...
Ka~wa~i~

Here it is again!!!
It is undeniably CUTE!!!

Presentation??? Awesome!!!

2009-03-26T15:16:00.003+08:00

We ( my english team) had to do a powerpoint presentation today at college.

It was kinda fun as we needed to wear formal wear.. lols

Mark looked like a new man when he wore formal, and Rachel had this really, really big, distracting flower pined to her hair...

As for me, i wore a really really tight vest =P

Everyone said to take it off, but I don't care what you guys think!!

Nice to say that we weren't the worst there la

Woooot!! i finally got to install by C-box back!!

Thanks to my bro, JEREMY!!! The guy with the domo-kun fetish!!!

This is to all the 7 people I know who are obsessed with domo-kun

You know who you are!!!

Gloomy sial... to not so gloomy...

2009-03-24T15:46:00.004+08:00

Today I was freaking lucky!!!!

I got into the shade of my college just before the rain started to pour down on me xD

The day started out really gloomy, we were all wondering in Malaysian Studies why we were so down and dark in the early morn...

...And outside, the rain continued to pour...

LOL... one good thing came out of this day la...

Today was LANCI my new nokia 5800 xD

It's like... THE UTMOST AWESOME PHONE THAT EVER CAME TO THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH!!!

I think I said that line about 6 or 7 times today... anyways...

lol... and I got one person to get addicted to my car game other than my bro... its like a really cool car game where you tilt the phone to maneuver the car on screen.. .AWESOME, I KNOW!!!

Lol... and during english... we watched as a team did their powerpoint presentation...

Omg.. they were good... i cant even ask a simple question as they prettty much covered all the facts...

lol... but the way they dressed wasn't that formal.... hmm... maybe i should try and dress better abit on the day of my presentation :P

Kiss ass abit to get more marks... right?? xD

Lol... oh yea... and 3 retarded people used my phone to cam-whore!!!

NOW I CAN BLACKMAIL THEM EASILY!!!! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

A New Change... A new look at life...

2009-03-23T11:13:00.005+08:00

So... I woke up this morning and had an epiphany...

My memories of my times in New Zealand are to be kept with me and not shown to the world...

Sure, I've had a fantastically awesome time in NZ, but that doesn't mean that the whole world should know about it.

So, I've decided that if I ever were to tell the world, it would be made into a book =P

I've come to realize that the past has gone, and yea, we should always treasure it, but there are times when the past should be let go... And we should move on.

So, I'm going to stop my blabbering about NZ and move on to my current life. Cause, that's what a blog's suppose to be about, right?

The memories of NZ will always be with me forever. I will always treasure the times I've had with my host family and my 38-member family in Rotorua.

A shout out to all my peeps in NZ!!

Day 9 - 15/12/08

2009-02-06T22:00:00.000+08:00

WARNING : THIS WILL BE A RELATIVELY LONG POST!!!

Ahhhh... Another 15 minutes in my little heaven on Earth... Mmmmm...

Tom suddenly decided to bring us (Rex and I) up north to escape the retarded weather we were having in Wellington. The rain decided to ruin our day by coming down really, really tiny and fine... It was like someone turned on a fan with water mists over Wellington... Bloody Infuriating...

Anyways, we made our way up North...

We stopped by a town called Paraparaparaparapar... Sorry... =P

What i meant to say was Paraparaumu. A shop there was named "Van Delft Chocolates Ltd"* Which happened to sell.... Well, CHOCOLATES!! (D'uh... You could have figured that out by the name...)

I felt like a 17 year old boy who had just gone in to a chocolate shop!!

Oh, yea.... I am...

Anywho, there were all sorts of chocolate in there: dark chocolates, white chocolates, milk chocolates, hand-made chocolates, machine-made chocolates, chocolates in the shape of horses, chocolates in the shape of elephants, chocolates in the shape of dolphines, chocolates with kiwis in them, chocolates with chocolates in them, chocolates with.... You get the picture...

The whole factory could have been made of chocolate, for all I know...

I ended up buying around NZ$2x.xx worth of chocolates from that place.

I just hoped that all these chocolates would be able to get back to Malaysia... Most likely most of it won't... :D

It all depends on my self control... Which means bad news for the chocolates...

Smelling like chocolate ourselves, we headed back to the car (arms full) to continue our one-day-trip northwards to the northen part of the North Island...

North...

I forgot to mention that I was too busy trying to close my gapping mouth due to the sheer amount of vararities of chocolates, and buying said chocolates, that I had forgotten to take any pictures of that place...

Damn it... Oh well, use your imagination I guess... No matter how limited it is...

Anyways, we headed up North, as I was saying, and stepped in a town called Lindale.

Hmmm... That name sounds familiar... Isn't he the Chinese Gold medalist in the Olympics for badminton?? Waitaminute... Nah, his name was Lindan... Right...

So, we stopped in Lindale, then to a chop called "Kapiti Cheese & Ice Cream"to eat the best ice-cream in NZ, and basically the best ice-cream in the world.

Think about it, what is NZ famous for? Their MILK, remember?

FERNLEAF, ring any bells??

And what's the main ingredient of ice-cream?? No, not ice and cream... What the hell... MILK, damn it!

So using this logic:

BEST MILK IN THE WORLD = BEST ICE-CREAM IN THE WORLD

Am I right? Makes sense? Got it?

Yes? No? Maybe?

Well too bad, you gotta live with it...

Moving on...

I had an ice-cream called.... Something to do with ginger...

I was like... Shit... I made a mistake with my choice... But once I actually tasted the ice-cream, OH MY GOD... I came to the conclusion that every ice-cream in that shop tasted like heaven!!!

After eating our oh-so-wonderful ice-cream, we headed northwards and ended up in what i can only describe as a car maniac's wet dream...

It was an automobile (Car... For those of you who seriously don't know...) museum. This wasn't just any ordinary automobile museum... This museum had a NAME!!! A name which, strangely, has nothing to do with cars what so ever..."THE SOUTHWARD MUSEUM TRUST INC"

Does that sound like it has anything to do with cars???

Anyways, this museum held a really spectacular array of different antique cars.

From Rolls Royces...

To Ferraris...

From Aston Martins...

To Daimlers...

From BMWs...

To Mercedes Benzes...

From Citreons...

To Hondas...

And Nissans...

The list goes on... And on... And on and on and on...

If you can name it, they've got it. Even a really, really ugly hand-made car, made out of aluminum...

OMG... the guy was either blind or really, really...

BLIND

This museum also took most of us, people over the age of 70, back to the "good old days". Back to a time when lights were made out of oil street lamps...

A time when cars were manouvered by using a stick...

A time when steam engines were considered "high tech"...

A time where Merces were owned my Queens...

Back to a time when... Basically back to a time when it was very boring and the only entertainment was picking your nose...

It came to my attention that people really loved to drive really gaint, mammoth-like cars bofore the 70's... Every car as essentially so big that you could literally land a helicopter, if there were any back then, on it.

With the exception of the Volkswagon Beetle, which is already humungous when compared to the current cute Beetle, every car in that meseum was... What's that word I'm looking for?? Oh yea...

FREAKING BIG-ASS!!!

You could easily fit a baby elephant PLUS a family of five in the cars back then...

But there were a few exceptions I forgot to mention... There were the race cars, which had to be small unless you find the stench of defeat enjoyable...

And the electric cars... Which looked as though they were build for children to drive.... Imagine this, I'm already damn short... How the hell will a normal, proportioned human being be able to fit in that??

Oh, I also found out that the first electric car was invented a hundred years ago... Not exactly a modern concept, is it?

Someone even put together a bike and a tank to make... This... Bike-tank... Thingy...

Besides cars, they also had old motorbikes... Motorcycles... What ever...

Bicycles...

Airplanes...

Biplanes...
Fighter planes...

And furniture... Although, i don't really know how they got there...

There was even a MacDonald's Beetle... I'm Lovin' It...

Omg... This was a really ugly sight... A Beetle with it's trailer shaped like it's backside...
Here it is again!! ARGH!!!

Omg... I believe Volkswagon went blind for a period of time and came up with this acursed monstrosity.

There was even a car that looked at though it was designed by a typical house wife which looked a lot like a vegetable basket mounted on wheels...

There was a car that looked like it was neither coming or going...

And a car that was made in Taipan, USJ 9 (Malysain joke)...

There were also really modern cars...
BMW came up with this totally ludicrous design... A car that opens from the front...

Here's a totally useless fact: Humans share 35% of their DNA with Daffodils...

Just to keep your minds of cars for a few moments...

Have a break, have a kit-kat...

Sorry...

So anyways, after ooo-ing and ahh-ing our way through the entire museum, we were off again... This time, to a near-by beach to get some salty, freash air.

Sadly, it wasen't a nudist beach... There weren't anyone there to be nude anyway...

It was just miles and miles of barren, brown, fine sand, stretching as far as the eye can see... My eyes, anyway...

So, there we were, trying our utmost best not to get knocked down by the 40-50kph winds...

The winds were so strong that my hair got pushed back all the way...

The wind was so strong.... It actually made me look hot by tightening my shirt :P

After fighting against the wind back into our car, we visited a hostel where we met up with another Australian girl named Dannielle. She was also as hot as Elly. (I might wanna move to Australia one day :P)

Lol... Anyways, Dannielle had this really cute, high pitched voice which reminded me a lot of one of my friends back in Malaysia.

She had this really funny, sarcastic way of talking. Half the time, she was telling jokes and I think no one in the room actually understood her cause they didn't laugh... I was the only one trying my best not to spew the water I was drinking all over the floor and myself :D

We had a really pleasent conversation and found out that we were having dinner together the following night.

How's THAT for lucky? :P

Day 8 - 14/12/08

2009-02-02T16:31:00.002+08:00

I have only one thing to say about morning showers... HOLY CRAP ,THEY'RE GOOD!!!
When you step in to the warm water on a cold morning, you'll never wanna come out. It's like HEAVEN in that little space... My little piece of heaven on Earth!

I realized they had one more thing that doesn't exist in Malaysia - A HEATED TOWEL HANGER!!! That's so cool!!!

We went to the church today and it was the first time I saw a live catholic baptism... And also a catholic naming ceremony.

Awww... And the baby girl was so cute!!!

Mass started at 10 and ended at 11.... After that, we headed home.

We ate some asparagus for lunch and it made my pee smell funny.... hmmmm...

Fast forwarding to our MAIN EVENT!!!

At night, we had a dinner at one of the Karori Lions' house. A 3 story, townhouse-like, hill side house.

Here, we met, for the first time since we came to NZ, someone else OUR AGE!!!

FINALLY!!! WOOOOTT!!!

SHE was an Australian girl from St. George (sorry if i got this wrong). Her name was Elly and she was kinda hot...

DOUBLE WOOOOTT!!!

I also found out that she could sing.... Like really, really well... But that's another story for later :P

We chatted about our host families and almost everything under the sun...

I soon found out that she was gonna have 3 host families... That's so awesome!!

We are most certainly meeting her at the camp...

And I must say...

I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!!!

Day 7 - 13/12/08

2009-01-20T20:32:00.003+08:00

WOOOT!!! Today, we got into the Wellington Zoo for FREE!!!

Lol... Actually, we helped the Lions people clean out the lion's den. Since we were being so, so selfless, (as usual :D) they let us enter the zoo for free. Yay, us!!!

The day started out with Beth (Karori Lions Club president) fetching Rex and I to the Wellington Zoo. We were helping another Lions Club, which were specially formed by gays and lesbians (that's so cool!!) and the zoo (of course) clean out the lion's den. We were told to clean out the weeds cause they were blocking the lions from being seen by outsiders.

One of the first animals we saw. It posed for us :)

So, we met at the entrance of the zoo at 9 a.m. and we were cleaning the dens in to time, with the lions inside...

... Their cages, of course... :P

We also met up with two hot female exchange students. One was from Germany and the other, from Switzerland. The German girl, Petra, had bleach-blond hair and was the hotter of the two.

in addition to the free entrance to the zoo, we also got to get up and personal with the lions. Holy crap, we were about a foot away from death. I almost soiled my pants... ALMOST!!!

Awwww, that's so cute!!!

This was totally awesome...

If i reached my hand out... I would have been able to stroke it...

Does this remind anyone of the Lion King? No? Oh well...

First time ever, I lost to an animal in coolness :P

Here we are, hard at work...

And the Alpha male of the chimps had FREAKING HUGE BULGING MUSCLES!!! In the name in all that is holy and mighty, there was a chimp with toned armes!!! And you could see it through the fur!!! I was seriously jealous... Of a chimp...

Check out the arms of the one on the left... o.O

There was one chimp who was a damn poser... He posed for like... 5 shots for me... Wth...

Here he is again... On the right...

We were also so damn close to the giraffs like... half a foot away...

We saw a bird show and this parrot did this for me :D

The duck was like, a foot away from me. It was so cute!!

Anyways, Jo (Tom's daughter) took us over to her house after that as we (the whole family) were gonna have a barbecue dinner at her house.

Awww... Their cat, Bernie...
The sausages were really, really delicious. Best I've ever had.

All in all, it was a very nice day. It was the first day we SWEATED in New Zealand!!!

FINALLY!!! It felt so good!!!

My only regrete is not getting Petra's e-mail address... So, Petra, if you're reading this, give your e-mail address? Please...?

P.S. We played on Mike's (Jo's husband) computer while waiting for Tom and Anne to come.

Picture this: 3 Mbps downlaoding speed.

WHAT THE HELL!!! Super freaking fast... That's like... A gazillion times faster than our internet speed back home in Malaysia.

Shit, throw in some hot girls and I'll never wanna go back to Malaysia.

New Zealand would be too perfect by then :P

Sorry about this post having no pictures... i'll update this with pictures soon... my computer's screwing with me...

Day 6 - 12/12/08

2009-01-19T22:10:00.001+08:00

Sorry for the long delay between my posts. I was so busy with parties and college assignments that i have over looked the importance of this blog to other people. :D Just joking

Anyways, back to my story...

It rained this morning, and it was freaking cold... Tom was worried that if that kept up, we won't be able to have our "Sausage Sizzle". Our plan was to help the Lions sell sausages to raise funds. But the rain stopped at 10 a.m. So, we continued watching the weather forecast. We watched some TV to ease our boredom.

Oh, damn... It started to rain at 2 p.m. Gary (the other Lion) called to say that the "Sausage Sizzle" was canceled. Double damn... And I was really looking forward to it.

Sigh... I settled with psyching my self up for my favorite TV show. Yea! You guessed it! Girls of the Playboy Mansion!

...And Rex went to sleep... Zzzzz...

Half an hour later, Tom took us to a place called the Weta Cave. It's not a real cave, lol... Duh.. It's a small museum where they display the props used for a few movies.

The Weta cave!!!

It stopped raining when we got there, by the way.

It seems this company called WETA was responsible for the creation and design of the Lord of the Rings and Narnia amour. Woah... Deja vu.

Anyways, they had very, very detailed and realistic busts and models of the characters of many different films. I really can't describe the amount of detail that is in each and everyone of these models they produced.

Obviously, quality comes with a price.

Creatures from the LOTR... The one on the left is the fellow who killed Gandalf...

One of the Narnian beasts... I think...
Take a wild guess as to how big this thing was... Not even close... It was like... 2 inches tall... Check out the major detail on it...

I couldn't get to see the actual thing inside, as they didn't let us open the box. So i got the next best thing - the PICTURE printed on the box!!!
The cheapest thing they sold were small rings at $5 and the biggest, most expensive thing is a life-sized model of Gullum from LOTR priced at $2,500.

The damn expensive Gullum...

What the hell!!! Only a hardcore collector would buy that.

It started to rain when we got out of the Weta caves. Damn... The weather was screwing with us... Damn you, NZ weather!!!

The weather screwing with us...
Anyways, we were also "treated" to some NZ traffic jam on the way back... It wasn't as spectacular as Kuala Lumpur traffic jam, but we were moving along quite slowly, nonetheless...

During that time, my keen sense of observation made me notice a few things :
- That Tom's car was a Suzuki Baleno
- His gear shift, compared to my retarded car, was damn smooth. There wasn't a single sound coming from it when he changed gear... Wow...
- Tom loves to drag gear 1 until about 40-something kph, then drag gear 2 until about 65 kph. That was cool and impressive. My car can't even accelerate anymore when I'm at 20kph in gear 1.
- I love to crap when i have nothing else to say. Like this portion for instance.

Oh by the way, one of our team members had to go back to Malaysia this morning - Sze Ting. Apparently, she had been sick since we got here.... So, her symptoms were lack of appetite, vomiting, panicky, fever... and... Did I mention panicky?

Sigh, like I told Wan Qi, it's like losing a member of the family.

On a happier note, our dinner theme was - onions. Lol... Funny, right? Well, it all began like this...

As i said earlier, we wanted to have the "Sausage Sizzle" but it was royally screwed by the weather. Well, it seemed that Anne had already sliced up all 16 onions we bought before we were informed about the "Sausage Sizzle" being canceled. So, we were left with 16 sliced, smelly onions to cook with.

As usual, Anne worked her magic and produced 3 delicious dishes, all made with onion as one of the ingredients: Onion soup, Potatoes and onion, and lamb chops and onion.

Dinner was wonderful. (as usual)

During the clean up, Anne had a brain-blast of how to dispose of the left over onions. (of course we didn't finish the whole lot...) Apparently, her daughter was having a barbecue the very next day. We could just give it all to her!!! Yay!!! Problem solved!!!

But the idea came a few hours too late...

Day 5 - 11/12/08

2009-01-13T22:01:00.004+08:00

What the hell!!! It was freaking cold this morning... Even under the thick blanket I had, I still felt freezing...

By the way, a strange thing happened this morning... Rex and I got out of our rooms at THE EXACT SAME TIME and we were BOTH wearing long sleeved shirts.... Weird, huh?

Oh yea, I did the laundry by myself. *Claps hands* Awww, come on, people!!! It's a really rare occasion!!! I was so proud of myself that i took a picture of the hanging clothes, which, might I add, I hung all by myself too. :D

Here it is...

Anyways, enough of my laundry ordeal... Today was freaking windy, like 40 km/h type winds or something like that. Tom went out to get his daughter's 7 seater - a Mazda MPV so we could go out with two girl exchangees from Australia (Elly and Dannielle) to Te Papa and a wool mill. (I hope they're hot :D)

Ah, damn... They weren't free... Oh well, Rex, Tom and I went to a place called STANSBOROUGH, where they specialized in harvesting wool, spinning wool and producing stuff made out of wool. It seems that they were the ones who made the cloaks for the Lord of the Rings and Narnia films. Those cloaks that Frodo and King Caspian wore came from the company we were at.

STANSBOROUGH...

The moment we were in the front door, we were bombarded by barks which cam from a cute little dog.

Here it is.. AWWWW!! IT'S SO CUTE!!!

But it was cool, as he (or she, I don't know as I couldn't see under it) was only doing his (or her) job - protecting the shop with his/her cute barks. Not a bad strategy, "cute" the bad guy to death.

Anyways, we went on our way with a tour of the place. We got to see how wool was made and spun. We got to watch a short film about the sheep they rear and the machines they used. (The sheep were so cute!!!) The machines included the loom and several others. (Can't remember the names of the machines, though...)

The loom... Dum, dum, dum...

We were at the gift shop before we knew it. They sold many different items made from wool...

Well, duh. Imagine if we went through the whole WOOL factory and at the end the gift shop was filled with stuff made out of... Say... PLASTIC or artificial FIBER... That would be just plane weird. The tour guide would be like: " And here we are at our gift shop. Feel free to try on our clothing made from cotton, because we ran out of wool... At this wool factory..."

Anyway, they sold a lot of stuff, ranging from teddy bears... Awww!!

To neckties... Oh my god! What the hell is that!! The neckties they were selling were damn ugly! It was bright red and furry... Like a red, furry monster... Argh... I was too afraid to take a picture of it, in case my camera lens cracked at the sight of that monstrosity...

To wallets, which were quite good. The problem was that everything in there was really, really EXPENSIVE. Yea well, they ARE made from real, pure NZ wool. The teddy bear cost $90 and the ugly tie was at $75. The cheapest item there was a wallet at $70. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a cheapskate person... As a rule of thumb, when I travel, I see prices as dollar for dollar... But even then, they are really expensive...

After that, we headed down to Te Papa, again. But this time, we were going to see something really spectacular - THE COLOSSAL SQUID!!! When they said colossal, they (the Te Papa people) really meant humongous-ly gigantic! It was about 4.3 meters in length. Imagine this, if we were to cook this monster, the octopus rings that would be made out of it would be as big as car tires...

The colossal squid... From the bottom up...

The colossal squid... From the top down...

The special thing about this colossal squid is that it had tons of ROTATING teeth at the end of it's arms. As shown below... (actual life-size)

We took a couple of pictures outside Te Papa...

Then, on our way home, Tom surprised us with accelerating downhill again... THIS time, in a Mazda MPV. If that's not enough for you action-enthusiasts out there, he also did a miniature burnout at one of the traffic lights. When I looked back, I could actually see a black strip of tire marks on the spot we just left.

I swear by the time I get back home to Malaysia, I would be saying :" MOM!!! Why are you driving so slow?!" Even though she's doing 110 km/h...

Upon reaching home, I did the ironing all by myself. Again, because I was feeling so proud and light headed that I've done another completely normal thing all by myself, I took another picture of the ironing board... I don't really know why I did that... I think it was somewhere along the lines of - can't find anyone to take my picture while I pressed the clothes... So I'll settle for the next best thing - a picture of the pressing board.

Argh... Still bright at 8 p.m. Don't know when I'll get used to this...
