DISCONNECTED.

Hi!!@@!!

I've been back home in Indonesia since 10 days ago. So freaking disconnected with the cyberworld.

Only managed to log on to check some stuffs out today.

Anyways, I think blogging will resume as per normal when I return to KL.

Till then. Ciao.

btw,

Pavillion Walkabout pt. 1.

I'm flying back to Indonesia in a few hours' time. Haven't slept yet. Still in the process of packing my stuffs.

I went out with two other friends to Bukit Bintang just now for a photo-hunting session. Because the weather was freaking hot today, we decided to stay indoors. We were hoping that there were some kind of events at the malls for us to shoot at e.g fashion shows.


Realli nothing to shoot until haf to take pic of myself.

S.Wang had one event relating to Chinese New Year which didn't interest us at all becuz we didn't recognise any of the guests/celebrities. I'm not even sure if those are celebrities or wut. So we skipped.

So we proceeded to Pavillion where we found some things interesting to shoot at.

Will post in the next entry. Gonna sleep now. Check back soon.

GOING HOME

So my two-month stint in the Sunway Internship Programme has finally come to an end. It began in December last year and ended today on the 31st of January.

I hate farewells.

I feel awkward during farewells, especially when a party/celebration is involved. In my case, we just had a simple lunch at Nandos, sponsored by the company, with colleagues from the Finance department.


Lunch with Dekon colleagues. Missing in this picture is the HOD of Finance who had an urgent meeting at the last minute.

Then after lunch, at 4 p.m, there was a tea appreciation organised for all the interns by the Sunway Group HR people who recruited us.


The good people of Sunway Group HR. Thank you for the great experience.

There was so much food to eat. But I was really full from my lunch earlier. So I just watched people eat and took their photos.

Mr. Geh and the interns.


An then it wus time to give out the Certificates. All of us had been waiting for this piece of paper. A solid proof that we've indeed gone through the internship programme.


Hahahaha, the presentation of certificates was actually a suggestion I made during orientation when I was asked what I would like to gain out of this internship. Glad that they accepted my suggestion.

and tadah... my cert.

.

and my name tag and door access card which I forgot to return.. but ah who cares larh!.

Now, time to pack up and go home, enjoy the rest of my school holiday and Chinese New Year.

Last Day...

Tomorrow will be the last day of my internship period. Huuuuuuraaay.

It has been a great working and learning experience. This internship has given me a taste of what the office working life is like, of which I'm glad that I still have another year of university before I really immerse in that kind of life.

Anyway, after seeing Rames' latest vintage-looking photos, which by the way I've always adored such old photograph feel, I decided to google for tutorials on how to do it.

Here's what I got by following closely the tutorial.

AFTER - "CLOWNING & FLIRTING"



Here's after tweaking the tutorial..

AFTER - "TRAVELLING TO WORK"

Read about the bus crash that killed three in many people's blogs. My condolences to each of the victim's family.

I'm joining the others to sign the petition for safer long distance bus rides.

I may be going to Singapore next month, by bus, but now I'm having second thoughts about going.

Movie Rants.

Two weeks ago, I think, I watched Cloverfield.




When I first saw its trailer during my first round of Transformers at the cinema back in July 2007, I remembered saying to my friends, 'wow another must-watch movie!!!'. It was still untitled then and shrouded in mystery and I soon forgot about it.

This year when I saw the poster of 'Clovefield' showing the headless Statue of Liberty,the dots connected. I suddenly remembered the trailer where the decapitated head of the statue of liberty was hurled from a distance like a ping-poing ball. Boy, was I excited.

Then the day finally arrived. I was so excited and curious at the same time at how the story was going to unfold. My expectation was, so to speak, through the roof!

As the movie played, what I thought was gonna be one of the best movies of 2008, had become one of the worst, in my opinion.

Wut I hate about the movie:

1. Too much screaming and running around. Getting from one place to another.I'd like that they focused on the monster too.

2. The dude behind the video camera kept screaming Rob's name. Fucking irritating.

3. Too much night scene. Night scene + running + shaky video camera = fucking dizziness. cb. Only the last 3-5 mins were daylight scene. Wtf.

4. wut the fuck happened to the monster in the end? BIG QUESTION MARK THERE.

Wut I like about it:

1. Perhaps the story-telling. Love the idea of telling a story through a first person's view.

Verdict: Damn fucking disappointed knnbccb........!!!

Don't watch this movie, you've been warned.


I watched 'Gabriel' last week and it topped Cloverfield in the worst movie category. Fucking lame siah the story... and the graphic... shit ....the most undeserving rm11 ever spent.

Rambo yo asssssss!!


I just came back from watching Rambo 4. Initially I didn't think I would watch the movie, let alone like it. The reason why I disliked it at first is because I hate the idea of shooting the whole thing in a jungle... but I wus totally wrong. I love the movie.

Love the violence and lots of bloody splattering scenes, the powerful explosions and firing of machine guns. OMG.. RAMBOOOOOOOOO......

I wish they will make 'Rambo' a verb!!!

A TRIBUTE TO MY NINTENDO DS LITE

(which I almost sold).

It seems like one would never grow tired of their Nintendo DSes.

I mean, of course at one point in time you will feel bored after playing it for one year. But with so many great homebrew applications out there for the handheld console, it is not difficult to start liking your DS again as if it were just bought yesterday.

If you bought your Nintendo DS solely for playing games, then you are not doing this awesome little gadget any justice. Please don't, for god's sake! It is capable of doing so many other things!!!

Why not? It is equipped with wifi connectivity, a microphone and a touchscreen function for interactivity.

Right now, I think some talented developers are experimenting how to turn the Nintendo DS into a functional Skype-like phone.

You can turn your DS into an ipod, albeit not as many features as the real ipod. But close enough. Using the touchscreen, you can scroll the wheel of the ipod to choose menu, songs and adjust volume.

Here's a video.


And here's my IPOD/DS.

Last week, after almost 3 years and many failed attempts to meet, I finally had the chance to meet a couple of old friends from Melbourne. But the darn thing is, after all these years, we forgot to take pictures to remember this rare chance of reunion!!! Wut the hell right???? It must have been the excitement.

This is us nearly 3 years ago. How time flies.


Me, Wily, Alan.

HAHAHA... wut an unforgettable night. LMAO.

YOUTH '08!!!

Finally, an entry that is not outdated. Yay.



So my friend and I went to the "Youth '08 - We Are The Trendsetters", a Malaysian Youth Lifestyle Showcase 2008 on the 19th Jan.

This event could not have come at a better timing, when my friend had just returned from Indonesia and we were just dying to go fire some shutters.

These are the pictures from that youth lifestyle exhibition.



Celebrity Secrets programme.

I dun really know who these pple are, but the cat with the hat on is Point Blanc.

Oh wait, I remember!
(L-R: Ex-M'sian Idol contestant, Ex-Miss Beauty Pageant, DJ, Point Blanc).

I could be wrong though.

There was a dance competition, too.



And, Point Blanc performing "IPOH MALI" on the spot.


Also, there were some bombing aka graffiti going on.


Wuddup!


Oxygen-deprived.








Part of the graffiti scene.

Then, there was also a Malaysian rapper dude performing. Who is he?
