I killed Spongebob!

Hahahaha, let me tell you what happened. I went to pasar malam with my father yesterday, as i was walking around, i spotted this shop which sells this burger, which is called Spongebob. Hahaha, good promotion, right? Below is teh pictures. . .



If you ask me how it tastes, it's different from different burgers, because of the bun. Other than that, nothing muchlah.

Anyway, wont be blogging much, cause my com is spoil. Currently using my brother's com, it's kinda lagging.

My Father

Earlier i was watching news at NTV7, and the anchor Ras Adiba Radzi was reading the news. My dad saw her and said "she's still seating on the bicycle?" out of nowhere. I admit, i did laughed, but laughed because he said "bicycle". Then i corrected him while laughing "wheel chairlah", then he replied "i said wrongly".

Then i switched to TV3, that time it was on World News. The news anchor reads out "Hamas telah menasihatkan Gaza supaya bertenang, gara-gara ada khabar angin mengatakan tentera Zionis akan menyerang kali kedua" (something like that). Then he said "these type of people should masuk inside ISA, spreading khabar angin". I laughed out loud!

Another day at Giant

It seems like these days, Giant has become my second home. I've been going there like 2 - 3 times every week. It seems like there's just something there for me. Yesterday, i went to one of the cafe there, just to try out their food, Walnut Cafe that's their name. It looks like high class place, but very little people there. Only 1 guy was there, when i came there. Then came the menu, the menu is just a simple laminated A4 paper. After eating i went walk around. I decided to explore places, which i never explore before. Then i saw something amazing! I saw a telescope for sale there. The focal length is 700mm!!! But the price is real killer, RM120!

Then off i go to another different place. Coincidenly, i saw one of my old classmate. She was same class with me, during Form 6. We chatted, then we left. As i was walking around, i saw another one classmate, but i didnt say hi to her or what just ran away, hahaha. Then i saw another one as well. Seems like the whole L6H can do class reunion at Giant, huh. Hahahaha! Anyway, i came to the point that, Giant is NOT cheap as what people claims to be. Yea, some products are cheap, but mostly, it's just plain expensivelah. I bought 2 packets of groundnuts, 2 box of tissues for my car (i have been searching for the right size of the box, because it can only fit in small box, and i could never find such size), small pizza (this one is a real money saver, you get that cheapskate pizzas for RM4.78 for 5!, Shapie marker pen and Cool Rhino.

Here's a video Darren shared to me, it's DragonBall the Movie. Honestly, which part of it looks like DragonBall?



I mean, other than the Dragon Ball, does the characters look like the one from DragonBall?

Splinter

I don't know if i should put this as "Fail" or not, but this is just weird.

What i'm talking about? I'm talking about Splinter, the World's First . . .(get this) Wooden Supercar! In a simple term, it means, this car is equivalent to a Porche, Lamborghini and Ferrari, but it's made out of wood. Hahahahah!



Picture Sauce.

Apperantetly, this car has the capability of going 240mph (386kmh), with it's mid mounted 4.6l supercharged V8 within its composite timber body. It can pump out 700bhp!!! This is what the designer, Joe Harmon, has to say about the "Wood is a truly amazing material to work with.

"It has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than aluminium or steel, and it possesses a versatility that makes many different types of construction techniques possible.

"The look, feel, and smell of a natural material like wood is not seen elsewhere and cannot be faked, and the satisfaction involved in making something from a piece of wood is awesome.

"This is a supercar designed to push boundaries and prove the potential of wood as a material."

Sauce.

For more info about the car, you can visit the designer's website.

I don't know what to say about this car, but certainly it's different from different. Wonder if anyone in Malaysia is going to buy it?

P.S. Later if accident, kasi ketuk balik with another piece of kayu.

Tired!

I spent from the whole afternoon, till night (around 10pm - then from 10pm till now) watching this drama. It was on 8tv few months back. It's called Ghost. I still remember few months back, when it was on tv. I didn't watch it, because either i thought it was going to be lame, or i was busy with some activities, not sure. I just watched it this afternoon on 8tv, they repeated it. It caught my attention, so i went to 8tv's website and watched the rest of the episodes there.

The Drama:

The drama is about this famous actor (Zack) in Malaysia (something like Rosyam Nor) was killed in a car crash. But he appears in front of this journalist (Eza) where she's the only one can see him, the others can't. Something like Ghost Whisperer. Zack thinks that he was murdered. So i was seeing from one episode to one, different characters appearing in each episode, and it seems that EACH one of them is somehow linked with each other, and worse they are POSSIBLY one of the murderers. The story has it's twist and turns. I was quite suprised with the graphics, despite it's not as good as those in Hollywood, but i can see it's slightly way better than normal shows. I'm not going to tell the whole story here, but if you have the time, and nothing to do like me, go and watchlah. See if you can ever find who's the murder.

The Lessons:

There are many lesson can be learned from this drama. One particular lesson i learn is racial harmony. There are different actors with different race, but when they acted the drama, it seems so normal, and i guess that's how Malaysian should be. It was nice seeing that one race person having relationship with another race person, i guess that's how harmony can be accomplished. There was this Chinese Dato' who keeps calling Zack as "Jack". . . hahaha. The drama also speaks of the world and it's ways. How people could just do anything, so that they can get what they want, and escape with it. For the girls, don't easily trust anybody easily, despite you might know them. Well, you can trustlah, but not to the extend of letting him make your drinks. Social problem is another lesson which been potrayed in the drama. People lead their everyday live just like normal people would, but only they would know of their sufferings.

The Production:

I think that the graphics were kinda ok, but it can be improved more. Sometimes certain scenes dont look "real" enough, because of the "hantu's" shadows. I think they could had avoid it, then it would look real enough. It seems like every episode, there's bound to have a Colbie Caliet song playing in the background. One more thing, is the movements of the objects. I think it's pretty cool how they make the keyboard to "type itself", items moving around.

So basiclly, that's bout it. It's a good dramalah, i suggest you to watch it, but you might lose your hair trying to figure out who's the murderer. But just a reminder, 8tv's website sometimes got problem a bit, it lags, then when you click to watch part 3, it goes back to part 1.

Anyway, today i saw this big giant beautiful fireball, too bad i didnt manage to capture it. Was kinda lazy. Hopefully, it will come again this evening.

Luck, coincidence . . . or maybe it's just Streamyx.

For these past few days, i was unable to online at all. I thought it was my dad's fault for not paying the bill on time, so i just wait. I think i didn't online for the past 2 weeks already. I was using my dad's profile on my computer and then i switched to my profile, and as usuall MSN will auto connect whenever you turn on the com, and i just signed in into MSN just like that. I was shocked, so i asked my dad, if he paid the bills, but he say he didnt. So . . . what happened?

Anyway, these days i've been pretty busy. I plan to cut down my computer time little by little. I'm playing Need For Speed: Most Wanted now, thanks to James. So far, i have beaten about 14 boss, and left 3 more to go. The last night's boss JV is one hard one, i nearly gave up. How do i cut down my computer time then? I defeat one boss per day, and that's it. That's the target i set for myself, so that i'm not too hooked up with the game.

I'm still waiting reply from Air Asia, but since it's been 22 days, since i last apply, i think i'll apply somewhere else. Other than that, i think my photography had gone down. These days, i hardly use my camera for anything. If i have the time and money, and if i am free one the 26th of January, i'll go for this.

Oh~ and there's a new Giant supermarket open at Putra Heights. So i dont have to go to Tesco now. So far i went there twice. I still remember seeing it even before it was built. Can't belive time pass by so fast. First day, many kiasu Malaysians went there, until no more parking available despite the 600 parkings. Most of the people who use trolley there werent polite enough, they simply push people with their trolley and block the way. I went there the day before yesterday, it was goodlah compare to the first day.

So basiclly that's the only update i can give now. I don't know if the internet is going to stay like this or going to crash soon, so baik i cabut and post this firstlah. I just saw this video few days ago in the news, and i thought of posting here, just in case you didn't see it. It's funny, i tell you.

2009

I know it's kinda late right now for me to post this up, but nevertheless, i think i should still post up my goals, so that y'all might know what i'm up to.

I'm not going to make my typical resolution this year (which is to lose weight), cause i was never close to achive it. I think this year, it's more of a goal, rather than resolutions. One of my big resolutions this year is to put God the center of my life, let Him be the president of my life. I realised i didnt go anywhere in 2008, because i thought i can do something in my life by myself, and not relying on Him. But i was wrong. I am weak, and if i do things by myself, i wont never do it right. My 2nd goal is to get a job soon, and do my best in it. In the same time, i dont want my job to tie my neck. Which brings me to my next goal, which is to serve in church more. Possibly opening myself to new ministries as well. 2008, and the previous year (2007), i got the chance to serve in Drama Ministry, and i really appreciate the chance given by Him to serve in that ministry. Some ministry which probably, i want to get myself into more is Transport. Again, 2008 was the year, i finally manage to "conquer" the mighty White Van! I can't belive i used to be in that van for the first time, i came to SAGC, and 4 years later, i'll be driving it! Hahahaha.

New ministries, i will be into would be Music ministry. It's time to put my 4 years learning into it, but i have to have the concious mind, that i AM doing this to SERVE God, instead of bringing glory and honour to myself. Time for my Sting to do it's job. Photography is another ministry which i want to serve in too. I'm going to use my camera for good use (not that i used it in any bad ways, though) to snap for events in church. Which i remember Uncle Dexter (my pastor) joked that we should one day make a Photographers Day, where we submit our cameras and it will be prayed so it will be used for good, hahahaha!

For my job, i guess i want to be the best employee that i can be. I know it's going to be a hard job for me, but yea, i have to do it somehow, and not to fear of anything. I also want to change my attitude for the good, for staters, i need to be punctual. I realised these days (actually more like months), i have been coming late for so many events, meetings, and picking people to church. If i were to be in transport ministry, then i have to change myself, and respect people's time. Also, i pray for maturity, cause i think i lack of it. I laugh and joke a lot, which is not good at times. I also pray that i will start giving. Giving in what i can give and not being stingy with it. Also to be a forgiving person as well.

So basicly that's my goal for the 2009. I pray that i can archive it. It might take some time, but it's going to worth it! Anyway, i went to Air Asia to apply for job, and i think i might saw the suitable job till i realised i . . .

PHAILED!

Ampang Balik!

I was thinking of updating my blog with the typical "goodbye 2008, hello 2009" post, but then. . . it's OK, ill update it some other time. Anyway, i had a great day today, great in a sense great, and "great" as well. Yesterday (Thursday), we plan to go sightseeing at Ampang Look Out Point. Well, it's Ivan's idea. I had never been there, neither to Ampang, and from what i heard from him, it sounds kinda far away from my place. So we plan to go. Kinda funny how we plan to go, then cancel, then plan to go again, then cancel again, then go again. Finally we make up, we're going to go for it. Colin Gan followed us as well, so the more, the merrier.

So i picked Ivan, Colin and Kelvin Yee from Taman Bunga Negara, Alam Megah and headed to our destination. To cut story short, we LOST! We enter here there but still we're not even reaching our destination. Then at one time, we went the same toll twice. Oh! i did drive inside SMART Tunnel for the first time in my life! It's kinda err. . . modern tunnel. When i went inside, i saw this 2 big fans there (Wikipedia says that the fan is meant to recirculate the air inside the tunnel, as well as to extraction of exhaust fumes), then it's like a long stretchlah. After like few minutes driving inside the tunnel, we came out. I just hoped the toll will reach bout less than RM10, because i never drive there before, and i heard the toll is pretty expensive. It came RM2, pretty oklah i guess.

We've been driving for like, 1 hour plus, and going aimlessly, and yet not arrived to our destination. I wanted to give up, i kept on driving and driving, simply shoot directions. Then Ivan wants to go to toilet, so we stopped at a Esso station. After he had done his business, i told him to ask for directions, he asked. Rupa-rupanya, we're quite near to Jalan Hulu Langat, THANK GOD! So we turn back, pusing here there, then go to the next road, which leads to a toll, and to Jalan Hulu Langat. During driving time, i saw many accidents, quite terrifying seeing all those cars smashed, and lost the mood of going. Anyway, we lost again, and we asked for directions, and we made it to the hillside. It was pitch black, super black. So we kept on going and going, till we came to our destination. Paid parking RM2, then when up this steep hill, can't believe my car can actually climb on top, ahahaha! Reached the top, waited for parking so long, couldn't find any, and the time is 11:36pm. By 12am, something, the KLCC lights will be off. We park below, and walk up towards the tower. Penat gilelah, i tell you. It's was so steep. Finally made it to the top with little breath to spare.

Whipped out my camera, and terus aim and shoot!

My camera couldn't capture most of the light, because of the distance and also the setting. After i saw the first few shots, i switched to Manual, and set the ISO and the Long Shutter :P


Great Scott, it works! I used to mess with the Long Shutter, and the results were horrible, why? Because the pictures turns out white. I used to think Long Shutter is actually Shutter. After few experimenting, checking online and asking people, i finally knew what was the Long Shutter for. It's used for times when there's lack of light, and you can't use flash to get that "light". Flash gives flash, and light gives light. So i decided to use this technique to obtain a good picture. Believe it or not, all this shots were taken only by my Powershot A470! But, it's really hard to obtain shots like this. Because i had to place the camera on a tripod and wait till it focuses and wait about roughly 15 seconds depending on the Long Shutter setting, and make sure NO any SLIGHT movement AT ALL, or else it will turn out like the shot below. . .

I was testing out, if my camera could zoom in to snap the Petronas Twin Towers, since Long Shutter mood needs to use tripod, accidentally my tripod moved a little bit, and this is how it turned out.

Speaking of zoom, this is a decent picture after zoom. It didn't lose much details, since it was on Optical Zoom. If you notice, the picture is slightly uneven, it's because of the tripod, the tower we're on, is very dark, and i couldn't set the tripod on centre.



Experimenting with Long Shutter, ISO and camera's location.


Going back home. Colin is sitting behind Ivan, so you can't see him. Going back home was a breeze, as we go back home by highway, and it' was such a nice journey back, without any jam or confusing roads. Will i go back there again? Certainly, but with more money, and more people.
