I'm back!!!

Who missed me? *looks around and hears crickets*

Okay... no one it seems... alrighty! Anyway, Its 1am right now, just came back from supper with my chubby lil sis. Had egg and onion prata and another egg prata. Not bad, just a bit on the too filling side. Then again, this is also my dinner. =p

Right now, I'm on holiday (for the month), got loads of manga from the Chuang Yi manga fair last week and I've got a new laptop from the manga fair!!! I'm getting ready my costume for next year's Cosfast. So, if anyone of you know where I can get the bamboo umbrella please tell me!!!

And in other news... I'm broke. Anybody with a good lobang for ad-hoc work call me!!!

Dynasty Warriors 6

I really love this series, mostly because for the bishies and oh so slashable but un-slashable content. ^_~

This time round though, they've given the characters a makeover. Some ranging from utterly horrible (Daddy Dong) to ultimately scary (Lu Bu)!

For some of the listings:

Lu Xun - Dear Xunie got a more feminine and tribal look. His weapons look the same old short ranged ones but i may be wrong.

Cao Cao - Mr "I stand there frowning" Cao looks like his armour got stripped down.

Dun - I love his new look! XD Weapon wise... uh... no comment?

Zhang He - In the past Warriors Orochi, he got fashion tips from Nou-hime, Oichi and Okuni to finally get this look. Wonder how he fights with that lace from his arms

Zhuge Liang - Ah Liang got a more rugged look. I wonder whether that lightning attack is part of his normal attack or its orb assisted.

Sima Yi - Claws FTW! Attack wise, he's more physical.

Zhang Liao - He's looks thinner or maybe its just my computer. His twin sickles look much better.

SSX - Wuh? What happened to her? Kunoichi and Huang Zhong mix?

Sun Ce - Like his armour, but in turn he looks thinner rather than stout and strong in the past games.

Sun Jian - He's taken the Evil Warlord look away from Cao Cao. I like! wub.gif

Zhou Yu - Leggings. 'nuff said.

3 brothers - Bei got younger and generalized. Fei, no change. I think he got some income for that expensive looking embroidered overcoat. Guan Yu got tips from Guan Ping on dressing up.

Dong Zhuo - Scary! >_<

I've got plenty of screenies from the HD trailer I got from koeiwarriors. 93 to be exact. But here's some Character shots.

Whut?

O_o;; Whoa! A few minutes ago, it rained, heavily, for like 30 seconds and Poof! Gone! Like Whoa! At least its a mite cooler now... And the birds have gone out and feasting on the grubs that came out I guess.They're really noisy outside. ^^

Whee!!

I may indeed be crazy! XD I've decided on my cosplay for the end of year! I'm doing...

CHIEF HARO!!!


Yeah! Why? Just coz his character has attracted me since I saw my brother play the lame game. The game is lame but the character just clicked for me. Then again, I wanna make a real Haro, or at least cosply a Haro-like character. XD Its just in the name of FUN!

Also I've got another target: Chomesuke of D.Grayman. Who? well.. lemme try to find a picture...



Manga version and all but I like her personality. She was drinking soda in a battlefield standing behind an exorcist! What's not to like about her? XD

Help me find more pictures of Chief Haro please! There's not much to find about him either... seems that I need to play the game... sigh...

Nightz for now!

Don't click!

Unless you wanna see my half-assed artworks! Yeah! I got my scanner re-plugged in and working! Though it scans funny. Kinda fuzzy looking. Then again, I think I need to give it a good wipe. Its so dusty! On to my art!

Title: Looking up.
Comments: I was just thinking king I should try girls for a change. It doesn't look too bad... The coloured one was done using copics. Ah.. Love them... Need to get myself a set...
Link: I've done COLOUR!!!

Title: Sketch - Slack...
Comments: HRM is boring... sketched, completed and even had fun with the drooling guy beside him! XD
Link: Why in the world did I take this module this semester...

Title: Sketch - Naga
Comments: Nagas are cool... Why is she wearing a blind fold? Cos I couldn't findthe appropriate eyes for her. Thus my general rule: If you can't draw em, don't. This is my fav out of all of the three!

Link: I'm blindfolded.


To end it all:

TERMBREAK FTW!!!!!

Another Joke!

I really gotta get studying... But! Another joke to tide me over! XD

Engineers vs. Executives Therom: Engineers and scientists will never make as much money as business executives.

Proof Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.

Posulate 2: Time is Money.

As every engineer knows, Work = Power/Time

Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we get;

Work =Knowledge/Money

Solving for money, we find Money =Knowledge/Work

Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity regardless of the Work done.

Conclusion: The Less you Know, the More you Make


And my conclusion: If ya got money anything else works!

Alien vs Predator - Requiem

OMIGAWD! OMIGAWD! OMIGAWD!!!

Check this out! Clickie~!!

This is so cool! The trailer shows a veritable free-for-all between Aliens, Predators and Humans. Violence, acid spilt on faces, heads blowing up! Yes! We get what we missed in the first AVP movie!

Now then... Hopefully this movie won't be banned in Singapore...If not I'm gona travel to America just to watch the movie!

On Odex among other things.

This is so overdone already on so many places... =_=

Odex have updated their website!!! Check it out!

Anyway. A quote from the Odex site:

"Based on searches ...... there were more than 400,000 instances of downloading in Singapore. Singapore was found to have the highest level of anime downloading in the world by population."

My reaction to this is that they have to use their brain for a bit! Really Have they thought that Singapore's population is like only 4 million? 'By population', meaning like 10% are downloaders. Have they given any thought that 400,000 people is like peanuts compared to the population of Japan? Or even US? >=( I'm unamused at their inability to see past the percentages and into the true value. By statistics, yes we have like the highest number of downloaders. By value we should have one of the least! Why not they look into another country with a bigger pool to bug?

On a better note... nothing... I've got to go back studying my structures...

Chuang Yi Manga Bazaar!!!!

I'm so excited for this!!! Yes!!! Its the Chuang Yi Manga Bazaar!!! Me and my need for new books in my not-really-vast collection. Okay okay... I have close to 200 manga by CY, TL, malaysian publisher, VIZ, TokyoPop etc lying around, but I want more! XD After all! I did get my Tenchi Muyo collection from them at $1 each last year! Whooyeah! That was a total bargain!

Here's the poster!

Coscon 2007

Ah! Another cosplay event coming up the end of this week! I'll be going as Umbridge (again!) But as a group for the Group Competition. Obviously, I'll be in the Harry Potter team. More pain for my feet! No.. I must think positively. Light as a feather... Light as a feather... Yeah. If only Feathers weigh around 70kg... >_>



See you there!

Cosfest galore!!! *long post warning!*

Cosfest has been fun! It was a 3 day affair this year, unlike the past few which has been one solitary day. I had like 2 costumes ready, Umbridge and dementor. But as fate would have it, I did not receive my wig on time. So what would I do? I use this as an excuse to get a new hair style! XD Presenting!!!



Yep, a shoulder length curly bob! Just because Umbridge has curly hair which I don't! XD

My close friend, Grace came back from Australia the other week, when I was sick/busy with my costume. She said it was a surprise. Damn right it was a suprise! Was cursing/shouting with joy at Mage when I saw the pic Shaun sent! Anyway, took a pic with her on Saturday!



She's a pretty gal. Pity she gets mistaken as a guy even with her longer hair. Before, it was short so it was still understandable how a tall and broad-shouldered person like her can be mistaken as one. But now? sigh... At least I saw her in this top which made her look ever so much female! Take that!



How did my cosplay go? Well... here's a picture someone took. Huijie forgot which album he took this from so if anyone knows... please tell so I can credit!



What did my sayang cosplay? His was an SD Gundam! XD He was sooo cute!!!



Isn't he?

Other notable cosplays!!! Koutetsu sangokushi's Koumei-sama and Son Ken-dono was there on day 2! And on day 3 was Honda Tadakatsu and Mori Ranmaru of Sengoku Musou! Oh how I drooled at their cosplay! It was totally excellent! With the details on not only the prop but the clothes as well! sighz~~~ I hope to achieve that level the next time I cosplay.

Ah! For more pictures, head off to the SPLA forum! My pictures are there on page 3! Or better yet! Just click here! Go on!

Oh yeah! I had tickets for the Gala Premier of Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix! I've watched it twice so far! Fair warning to those who've read the books. Its totally insubstantial and unsatisfying as a movie if you've read the books. But if you're the kind not to read but just to watch, then its just fine as it is!

Peace out for now!
Nutella!!!

Saturday 7 July 2007

I'm sleepy...

Phew! I just finished them!!! just like ermm... 10-15 mins ago? And Its like 4.43 am!!! What am I talking about? These!



Rabbit ears!! Yes! Made out of paper so they're not for sale. Oh? You see an interloper? Well! This pair of Telinga Tikus is for sale! Yep. Sale! For those Interested, its only $3 per pair. XD




I'm gonna go have a nice long sleep now for the cosfest tomorrow... =_=

Good night all!

I figure...

I better update something on this blog yeah?

Okay what have I been up to...?

Watched Pirates? Check
Watched Shrek 3? Check
Watched Ocean's 13? Not yet..
Watched Transformers? Check!

For the record, Transformers is GREAT!!! XDDDD

Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix is coming soon! 12th of July is the opening day!!! Deathly Hallows comes out on the 21st July!!!

For those of you who's known me for no matter how short of a time, you know how obsessed I am with the HP series. The world is so elastic, so fantastic, has the potential for so many things happening such as the Horcruxes which was revealed in book 6. Anything can happen with the last book. And I'm betting that Harry dies... in the hand of his best friend: Ronald Weasely. Yes!! Backstabbed, betrayed and finally killed! He gets brought back to life with Wormtail giving his life in place of Harry. Oh yeah. A lot of things can happen and many will.


I'll be cosplaying too!!!! Yeah, I'll be cosplaying a closed-minded, sarcastic bitch with girly tendencies for the colour pink and pictures of cats in almost every corner of her room! Not to mention, she also has one of the most elaborate wands I've ever seen!!! I'm talking about Dolores Jane Umbridge. The UMbitch! Oh yeah!

I've just completed the wand today. Took me like so many weeks to find the bloody wooden beads, or at least just something that looks like it. I've fallen to using Buttons which was expensive... *cries* And which I finally found the bloody beads today at the shop near my house. I feel so sad now.. especially for my approximately $20 spent on Buttons itself. *cries*

Here's the pic:

I'm rather proud of this thing. Held together with glue and a wire to keep it stiff, I'm hoping it will stay as it is. If it just breaks apart... well you'll see a very emo me after that. ^^;;

Ahahahaha! I also made her brooch and ring... Which was easy once I found the items. Then it was just to find the picture, print and glue! My printer was running out of ink but it turned out fine. Here's the pic!



How's those up there compare to this?



Not bad if I do say so myself! XD Self flattery will get me nowwhere, but its fun!

Peace out for now! (^^)v

RIP , Dear TV

A few minutes ago, my dear Panasonic television breathed its last. Its last words were emitted with the foul stench of ozone that permeated the air. The line that streaked through the middle was the final blow to its internal workings. It had served us faithfully for the past 12 years (approximately) following us through thick and thin. I bid you a good rest within the depths of the metal cruncher and recycling bins.

Good night, Good bye.

Oooo.. Shiny...

Since the start of my holidays I've been 'busying' myself with a shiny new game by Koei. No, I'm not talking about Gundam Musou, though I do wish it. I'm talking about Musou Orochi. I managed to get my hands on a copy and have been playing it quite a ways. I'm still having trouble with getting Sun Ce's Personal Item. Grrrr...

So what's Musou Orochi about? Its about a megalomaniac who thought it'll be fun to bring together the most chaotic periods of Chinese and Japanese history and let them him and each other battle on their home ground. The result? A messy, just-kill-everybody war with no regard to strategy. Between the 4 stories there is not much of a relation between them. I would LOVE to play on Orochi's side but not that there is... sigh... v_v

Since there is a mix of the sengoku and sangoku characters in the different stories, there is bound to be new relations and pairings. Like in the Wu story, Hanzo Hattori and Tokugawa groups together with Sun Ce to bring back the Sun family and defeat the person who brought them to this forsaken land. In the Wei story, Mitsunari pairs up with Cao Pi. In Shu... we get to see Zhao Yun tied up. *glee*

The list is endless! Just so that Mitsunari and Cao Pi is too irresistable, I did a little fanart on them!

Title: Wait a sec...
aka: The real reason why Mitsunari brought Cao Pi to the onsen
Characters: Ishida Mitsunari (right) and Cao Pi (left)
Rating: M18 - NOT WORKSAFE!!!
Notes: After the fight with Orochi, Cao Pi was feeling left out with all the people flocking around his father instead of him, the real architect in the downfall of Orochi. To lift his spirits, Mistunari brought him to a onsen. It did help to loosen some of Cao Pi's anal retentive behaviour. Well with the help of a few nice strong sake (which surprizingly survive the transition between worlds) Cao Pi was putty in his hands.

Mitsunari... If you're about to do what I THINK you're about to do...

POTC madness!!!!

Watched POTC 3 yesterday. Funny was funny but it didn't do it for me. Unless you like Johnny Depp in various state of minds and undress, this show's for you. The show is rather like spidey but worse. Too many things happening at once, too many things left not shown in the movie and the script was not that fun. Humour was left to slapstick goodness and overused scenes.

To give an overall view:

The pirate world is being wiped out. The only way to save them against the East India Company and the Flying Dutchman alliance is to bring all the Pirate Lords together to fight. The only problem: Captain Jack's one of them and he's now in Davey's Jones Locker which is at World's End. The journey takes them to Singapore, to one of the poles, down a HUMONGOUS waterfall and a nice sea water bath underwater with the ship.

We get to see Will trying to act gentlemanly, James Norrington in a confused state, Elizabeth in only a bathrobe, Jack topless, Jack tattoed, Jack brainless, Jack bringing a new meaning to the movie Multiplicity and Jack acting noble. Barbossa being Barbossa, his actions is the only one that remains straight and true.

Oh yeah, You get to see the Great Sotong King in a bucket...

Last but not least, Stone crabs FTW!!!

Update on my grandmother P2

Alhamdulillah. I saw her just now. She's looking better, with all the energy to move. Fact is that she's not well enough to be moving around, I mean walking around but she's like insisting that she MOVES. I mean like she tried to get off the bed like 5 times the 20 minutes I was standing beside her. But still at least she's fine.

My grandmother is currently feeling very confused. She doesn't speak much but I can guess most of the questions are like: Where am I?; Why am I here?; How did I get here? etc. So that's the reason for her agitated state. So much so that we had to tie her to the bed. Sigh as much as I don't like it, but moving around is not good for her still unstable brain. Other than that, she good. Slightly feverish yesterday but her grip's still very strong. My little sister can testify to that.

Though I'm still unsure on how you take care of stroke patients. How do you feed her? She's still being fed by the tube. But when she gets back how? We have a maid to help us but recognition is almost gone. Motor skill are there but weaker than ever. Sigh... Help me. Dear God, Help me have the strength to support my family during this period. Amin.

Matching you and you Daemon

The Golden Compass is a book which I've read before. Its part of a 3 book series about 3 instruments. I've forgotten the story but after looking at the movie site, I really wanna re-read the series! XD

Here's the link! Click here

On the site, there's also a quiz where it mathes you to your daemon. My initial daemon is the Lion. I think I did something wrong somewhere but hey! Do me a favour please and help with the accuracy to my daemon!

Update on my grandmother.

I've just returned from the Hospital. Tan Tock Seng Hospital sure has the facilities for the elderly folk and my grandmother is a returning guest. She's in the ICU right now. Hopefully she'll be okay.

She suffered a stroke this morning but was only discovered by the maid only about 30 mins later. This was because she was in the loo (coz she has this thing about privacy even though she has her dementia). The paramedics came but the morning jam prevented them to do much for her.

The stroke, a bleeding 3 cm clot in the left side of her brain, left her right upper body paralysed. I cannot see her smile again. She has beautiful teeth at 69. No dentures, no cavities. Plain beautiful teeth and a smile that strikes my heart with joy. When I was there, her grip on her left was still strong. She murmured something, but none of us could understand her. I just stood there holding her hand. With my voice like this, I couldn't say much.

We left her with my aunt watching over her. I hope she gets better.

Pray for her.
Allahuakbar! My Grandmother just collasped! The ambulance just came to take her away a few minutes ago. My aunt, uncle and brother are there. I'm waiting for my lil sister now.

Pray for her...

Manga, Sunday morning and Hotdogs!

I couldn't sleep last night. Well I did have my sleep. For about the 2 hours I was downstairs, I slept during the extra time of the game between Chelsea and Man U. Yes, the game was that boring with both side playing the cautious game of "Oh, throw far then might get to the other team! So kick close..." Bleargh...

Anyway, after waking up, I was (not) surprisingly awake. (Cmon! After having slept about 15 hours the DAY before). So then I spent my time reading the manga I rented from the Mage shop. The selection was as diverse as you get singlish language. I got Legal Drug vol 3, Kitchen Princess vol 2, Esperanca vol 1, Finders series vol 1 and 2, Boku no Koe vol 1 and Hot Gimmick vol 1. AND finally a novel. Okay okay so I was bored. Then again I managed to finish all BUT the novel last night and managed to catch like 20 mins of sleep before being woken up for the morning. (The Finders Series is the best of the lot! X3~~~)

And so after a morning meeting with the peeps from T.Arts, we went bowling~!!! Okay so my legs still hurt from the PT on Friday, but I needed to move them. What better way then lots of walking and bowling! My score was not great after not playin for so long but heck, its better than getting the gutter all the time! Huijie came about somewhere in the 2nd game. After that we (that is, Jie and I) went off on our own.

We went around to rekki for the price of the a game Jie wanted. I was kinda stuck with drawing on one of the wacom tablets on display. So fun!!! XDDD I managed to draw something but colouring just escapes me... *cries* I need lots of help and practice... *cries somemore*

Dinner was a GREAT affair! We had a hot dog meal each. I ordered mine a regular Chicago and he ordered a LARGE Texas Ted. Mine was so big I could hardly get it all done. Huijie's was so much bigger but he finished it off just like that! Well, guys DO have larger appetites... >_> Here's some pictures of the day!


Nice shop, nice person. The potato salad was not that good though...


Yummy... Dinner... XD

On HIPs and pains in the neck...

To quote my friend, Tueac: Something interesting behind a boring title. Yes! The list is out! We've been warned SEVERAL times in fact. So now they've stepped it up.

What am I talking about? Heard about HIP? No, not the one that goes crack when you try to sit down. It stands for "Honour Intellectual Property". So that = HIP? A bit lame but they get the message across.

Right. I'm talking about downloading anime from the net. Not direct download. But from torrents. The list is out on the list of anime titles that are licensed in Singapore. Where? Here!

A glance though the list and the first question one would ask is: THEY ARE LICENSED?!?! The next question: If they are licensed where can they be found?!? Fact is, dear people, the titles which are licensed in Singapore are just unavailable off the shelves. Meaning they cannot be bought! If they can be bought, they will usually follow the norm and will sub in CHINESE and dub (if available) in CHINESE.

CHINESE!!! Not being racist at all here but DO they realize that not ALL of the people who watch japanese anime or japanese/korean/cantonese drama are Chinese people? The basic reason that I download these anime is because They are only available in Chinese. A language which I HAVE studied despite it NOT being my 2nd language. HECK its not even my 3rd! I'm a Malay. A Malay person that loves other things that the soppy romance drama on Suria.

One example is the not that recent sale of Deathnote Movie by Poh Kim. Yes, I've watched the movie on screen. Therefore I want to buy it a copy to watch in the comfort of my own home. BUT! Its only subbed in CHINESE!!! It has... wait for it... Chinese DUBBING!!! BAH! I cannot even enjoy the movie that way. I cannot enjoy any movie if I do not understand it.

So my point. If you have it licensed, get it done so that many people if not ALL can understand it. Get it done with good quality. Get it ON THE SHELVES so that people can buy it.

Odex, if you ever come across this post, Great job so far but I'm waiting for more DVDs to appear, Thank you.

Synopsis: Parfum Extrait 0

Its been a long time since the last update! I've been rather slacking after the exams! XD Reading manga, watching anime, drawing stuff! Seems like I've been rather busy instead of lazy! Than again I've gotta start on my costume! ^_^ Now if only my monetary funds can cover me well enough... *cries*

Anyway, right now lemme give you guys a synopsis of one of the manga I've been reading: Parfum Extrait 0 by Kaori Yuki



It is said that by looking into another's eyes you can tell much about a person. So does one's scent. This manga is a one shot complete manga recently translated by Chuang Yi, written and drawn by the artist of Fairy Cube, Kaori Yuki.

This is a manga about an expert perfumer (read: not Perfume peddler), Kanade Saikawa, who is able to remember and distinguish every scent and odour he has smelt before. The fragrances he create goes with the person's personality and style making each of it unique to the person. It is a mask the fragrance it, but it never hides the heart of one who wears it.

The first story is of one of his customer who was rumoured to be harrassed by an unknown man thought to be one of the Yakuza. Body guards for the girl has not deterred the man from the girl. It is then known that the girl is missing from the mansion and that her mother was gone overseas. By chance, he had stumbled onto the scent he created on the streets, but it was tainted with the scent of "Death". By using his nose to follow the unique scent that he created for the girl he found himself at a rundown building filled with the choking scent of roses. It leads to a bigger story than just a missing girl from the streets.

The second story is of Kanade's Past. Approached by a magazine, about a popular internet rumour of the "Perfume of Death", he tries to explain that its impossible for a scent to kill somebody. It was until a person who bought such a bottle of perfume from an online shop died shortly after she opened the bottle he did not believe such a rumour. But with his nose, he caught the slight scent of almonds beneath the fragrance which he identified as his "Felicia no. 8". Was it murder? or accidental suicide? Afterall, the perfume he created was discontinued about 2 years ago. Read the story which follows Kanade's past regarding a love triangle and death.

The third story is of how a fragrance can cover up memories if it causes such a deep impression to a person. Perfumes can also form false memories to mask the harsher reality to the person in concern. Be mesmerised as Kanade does his magic using his Fragrance Organ to uncover the truths beneath the false.

Overall, the manga is a nice short volume with beautiful detailed artwork that is characteristic of Kaori Yuki. Good for those who are looking for a short yet meaningful read into the world of perfumers and those affected by them.

I'm bored...

Honestly now... The person who came up with the concept of "Exams" obviously had something against kids. Or at least a sadist... ARGH!!!! I hate this!

Yesterday was Applied hydro. Learning about water cycle yadda yadda. Today is Money! Econs and Finance! After learning that I've failed the last quiz for this module I better buck up! Oh boy! My mind's gonna burst tomorrow!

On another note, I just whiled my time away just now doodling on my notes! (Wow! What a surprise... >_>) For a picture of it.. go to my dA!!! *shameless plug?*

At school

Day: Monday
Date: 09/04/2007
Exam ETA: exactly 2 WEEKS!!!!

Currently at school accessing from a computer. Just bought 2 books from popular (better late than never!) and a long overdue green highlighter. My old one is dying but enjoys a very long life!

Was late to class just now. Why? Came out early, caught an early (relative to my usual) train... And got stuck between Admiralty and Woodlands~~. Why? "This train will be delayed due to an accident. We apologise for any inconvenience caused." >_< WOODLANDS!!!! WOODLANDS!!! PEAK HOUR!!!! Bloody heck I know that the current trend for easy suicide is dropping yourself onto the train tracks but forget your selfish self and at least go at OTHER times than the peak hours!! Your selfishness brings woe to most others who DON'T know you, don't WANT to know you, have OTHER things which are more worthy of their time then YOU!

Okay I'm being an asshole here. But I JUST DON'T CARE. Call me insensitive, thick-skinned etc whatever! I do not care WHY you have to commit suicide. Not many others care else well. Because, when you're dead, you're DEAD. You can't change anything else. It takes guts to go on living! So Go! Shoo! Go back to your life! No matter how miserable, it will take a good turn sooner or later!

Now, unless the fall-into-the-tracks is a total accident or a homicide, that's my $0.02.
