There are so many things that I need to complete for my Final Year Project, but I just keep getting distracted.

And when I'm distracted, I tell myself to FOCUS. And when I think about FOCUSING, I think about LENSES. When I think of LENSES, I think of CAMERAS. 

And when I think about cameras...it comes back to the main thing which has been my distraction for the past few weeks - the FE2.

UGH.

Two more weeks of agonizing waiting to endure...then it's gonna be orgasmic once I get it! Kind of how I feel when I get a new pair of kicks - just that this is gonna cost more, and there's gonna be more money spent on the upkeep, buying films and developing them.

But unlike my shoes, I'll definitely be making sure it's money well spent by using it to the fullest.

...until a new thing gets my interest (and money) again.

I love being a trendsetter - in some ways. :D

Wahahaha. I don't know if I should be proud to have so many different interests, or to bemoan my somewhat short attention span. LOL.

Hmm. I wonder if it applies to women as well.

HAI MS GF I LOVE YOU. Tee hee. ^_^

Anyways check out my new rap supergroup Johan Dan Rakan-Rakan which performed at The Library a couple of weekends ago!

We're gonna be performing again in the next round on December 6th so please do do do come by and support because the crowd gets to vote! :D

Hohoho.

Anyway please bask in the randomness of this blog post because I'm not gonna update this thing until I get my hands on that FE2 (I PRAY AND HOPE) safely in more than a week's time. Woot woot!

Two more weeks, two more weeks! Two more weeks til the end of the semester, two more weeks til the FE2, two more weeks til the Broga Hill outing, two more weeks til the next round of The Library's Got Talent Or Not?, two more weeks til I'm free from the shackles of studies...even if it's just for a week or two.

Two more weeks. Can't wait!

Peace out Ms Inez! Hearts and hugs and kisses and Domokuns! :D

Ever since I got back to KL, I haven't had the chance to really go all out and play around with my cameras unlike when I'm in Penang, and right now I'm really itching to get back into photography once again. 

However, numerous attempts at convincing my classmates to visit Broga Hill had been futile. But at least now they agreed to head there in two weeks' time, once this semester comes to an end. Can't wait!

Nevertheless there are a few things I need to remind myself to do:

Don't you wish you can just right click, click "save as", and save a moment of your life in your mind where you can load it again in the future and replay/relive it?

Thank goodness for cameras, at least.

I dunno what's up with Multiply. All the pictures that I've uploaded lately are not showing. And I'm so afraid that my older pictures from 2005 will disappear as well, I've been saving those pictures from my photo albums into my laptop (since I don't have the pictures anymore) and I'm not even half done. SO MANY MORE TO GO.

And when I come across random ugly pictures of people, I upload them into Facebook! :D

Really makes me miss the post-SPM days. Anyways, I also know I'm gonna be missing my Uni days really soon once I graduate in about half a years' time. Huhu.

Classmate's birthday celebration again today. I love the togetherness we have as a class unlike how it was back in college when everybody had their own separate cliques. Hmm.

Anyway, midterm test tomorrow and I haven't studied at all. And I think half of the class didn't as well. This semester feels so lazy and so full of procrastination. Haha. I dare not imagine how we're gonna suffer when the next semester comes alone. -_-

Can't wait for this bloody rainy spell to be over so I can finally go to Broga Hill safely.

Nights folks.

Awesome weekend, it has been. 

Despite the jitters and the delays and the half-assedness of it all, I pleased to say that the new Rogue Squadron hip-hop supergroup, Johan Dan Rakan-Rakan, safely made it to the next round of the Got Talent Or Not? competition by The Library at The Curve. :D

The next round will be on December 6th so I really hope you guys can turn up and show support because the audience's votes (through scorecards) makes up 50% of the votes and to be honest, we were real lucky to get through tonight because we didn't bring any friends over to cheer for us, and yet we managed to beat the others who had dozens of friends cheering and voting for them.

So mark your calenders and make sure y'all are free on the first Sunday of December, to come down and support us for the next round, ok plees? :D

Anyway, Newcastle's awesome win yesterday added to the wonderful weekend of mine and even though they failed to keep a clean sheet, and I'm happy that Jonas Gutierrez finally scored his first competitive goal for the club! Woot woot! Looking forward to more goals from the Argentinian winger and hopefully his Spiderman mask celebration as well. XD

But now, it's back to reality again. And that means classes and assignments and all that. Gaahhhh. And it's another long day tomorrow so I better hit the sack right about now. Huhu.

Nights people! Nights MsGF!

Oh and do watch Pisau Cukur! Funny as hell! Panas! XD

/jizz

I think all my photography skills and interest would be of no use if I never live to see the day I get to shoot a cover girl like this. Totally...smoking...hot. Front Magazine's blog never fails to amuse me with their awesome posts as well as their sizzling hot chicks. Where the hell do they find all these beautiful women?! Urgh!

Anyway, speaking of photography...I finally successfully developed a roll of film which I snapped using my Russian FED4 camera which my uncle gave me 10 years ago. :D I did, however, ruin one or two rolls of film while trying to figure out how to use it correctly.

Too bad only these few pictures turned out nice. Pretty high price to pay for each of these pictures if you ask me. LOL. But now that I know the camera still works pretty well, despite the random light leaks as you can see in the pictures, and also the fact that I need to rewind the film manually back into the cartridge after I've finished snapping.

Nevertheless, pretty satisfying result for my first roll. :D

Anyway, I better get some sleep. This week is going to be hectic as hell as I've got tonnes of stuff to complete for my Final Year Project, for approval next Monday, while I need to practice for my performance at The Library on Sunday night with my new found supergroup called...Johan Dan Rakan-rakan! LOL

Time to step up the hustle! :D

Where the hell do they find such hot chicks for their magazines?!!

So I'm into my third week of classes this semester, starting tomorrow, and I think the stress of things are finally starting to get at me.

It has been a rather carefree fortnight, with outings and drinks and basically not feeling as though classes had started. For the first time though, I'm now feeling the pressure. The amount of work for my Final Year Project has finally dawned upon me and I'm scrambling to get my mind to work on what I want to do for this massive project, the designs, the logos, the advertisements, the TV commercial, and also the bloody website. By now I should be starting the sketches for my company's logo and profiles already, yet I'm still debating on which proposal I should proceed on - the food products, or services.

Hmm.

Apart from that, I'm also starting to be stressed over many other matters, with a few shows coming up over the next few weeks adding to the frustration. Too many of a good thing will only spoil the fun, or as they say, too many cooks spoil the broth. Well, it's starting to be true.

Plus, I'm really starting to dislike weekends because of how much weekends are costing the wallet. And I'm not just saying this about me, but I also hate to see how much MsGF is spending on us. I mean, I really don't like spending unnecessarily, and as much as I love treats, I really don't like people spending on me as well. Huhuhu. Makes me feel guilty as hell. And it's only the first of November, and I'm already feeling broke as hell. -_-

Anyway, I'm seeking refuge at Tidurman's house at the moment. The third day in a row. And I really ought to start working on my sketches and stuff - which is actually due tomorrow morning at 10am. Grrr.

Rawr. Frustrasi, frustrasi.

So right now, I seriously need to take a chill pill, start planning my shit well, and stop dwelling on matters that are of no benefits to me. And start taking more pictures with my beloved cameras - I'm sure that'll keep me happy enough. :D

Back to work.

And to the greatest headmistress mom on earth - Happy Birthday Pn Tan Say See! :D 

Don't know if I've posted this song here before, but it is my favourite one off their "When The World Comes Down" album.

I started writing this knowing very well how I want to word it, but then I got distracted and very demotivated. And then futsal totally drained me of my energy, so I didn't really have the urge to finish up this piece properly.

Nevertheless, it's been a while since I've actually been writing. Therefore, do forgive the rust.

Last night was surreal. Good night world.

Nasi lemak Asia Jaya LRT at 8am is most certainly blissful.

A great way to start the day, if only I am not about to go to bed after this. Huhuhu. I still can't believe how free I am. Another day without classes. And then tomorrow, a couple of classes, and another long weekend up before the following class on Monday.

And that's the way it's gonna be this whole semester.

I dread to think how my next and final semester next year is gonna be if I continue feeling so carefree and complacent this semester. My Final Year Project is no joke man. Huhuhu. Can't wait to start on it. However, I'm not very sure if I made the right choice in choosing Organizational Psychology over Public Speaking for my one and only subject this semester. But no matter what, I certainly have no regrets. Hohoho.

You know, sometimes people may seem cold and heartless. But then I came to realize that, even if you can take the heart out of a person, you just can't take a person out of one's heart. :) Go figure.

I need my sleep now. Or should I work on my typing assignment. Grr.

It feels like a wonderful day today. Enjoy it to the fullest people. :)

It's bad enough I have an urge to shit. Then I had to walk half a mile to the SS2's pasar malam with my classmates - carrying my bag with my laptop and cameras in them. -_-

When I finally got to SS2, sweaty and constipated, imagine my astonishment when I came across this:

No shit José! Is this even legal?! LOL. But it sure is a dope idea! Not only is it a cafe, it sells all sorts of DAP merchandise and apparently you can register as a voter here as well. Hmm.

I'm not very sure if the food is good, cos I'm not hungry, but the Nasi Lemak smells AWESOME. Woot woot. And there's a plug point for every table in here plus the Internet connection is super. Hohoho.

Now I'm gonna get me some DAP button badges after this. LOL. Dope dope dope!

I wonder if Lim Guan Eng & daddy comes here to makan or not. Hohoho.

I fell asleep in Tg Bungah last night, and woke up in Petaling Jaya this afternoon. Huhu.

I can't believe my one month holiday in Penang is already over. I didn't even really finish up some of the stuff which I set out to do. For example, my laptop repairs, my passport renewal, one or two new songs, and some more. But I can't complain though. It's been an awesome holiday spent with the guys, although I must admit it would've been cooler if there were more chicks to hang out with. -_-

But anyway, first thing I did when I reached, was to get myself my birthday present! :D Something I've been longing to get before I went back Penang last month but then couldn't really afford at that moment. Oh well. Ta-da! Another camera to add to our steadily growing collection. I'm sure that's something better to be collecting than sneakers right. :P Plus, it's cool to know where to get the best bargains while everybody else are paying more for theirs. XD

Besides that, guess what MsGF got for me as my birthday present? Hint: Barcodes. LOL. But then unfortunately, an hour after I excitedly put on my new jersey, Newcastle lost. = =

Anyway, Rica Goh also got something for herself today. She became a guy. Wuwuwu. So I think it's been a very progressive Deepavali/Pre-birthday. LOL. Got myself what I wanted, got something from MsGF that I really wanted, got myself a refurbished GF, watched a movie, and now I'm hungry at 3am. Huhuhu.

And plus, I finally got my hands on the bunch of films that MsGF picked up for me while I was in Penang and I can't wait to put them to good use. Now if only I can figure out how to make my Russian FED 4 work properly once and for all, then I'll be a very happy man for a very long time. :D

I just got back from having Roti Telur Bawang with MsGF at 4am in the morning. -_- Boy I do miss some things about Penang, home cooked food. Be it Pn Tan's, or Adrian's mom's. /cries

Okay actually my mind is not really working properly now. Sheesh. Need more sleep. T_T

Yep.

Good night people! Hohoho. Happy birthday Koh Yung Shen. :D

Birthdays.

They come and go don't it? I mean, so what if you can't celebrate it this year? There's always a few more years to go right? Besides, there are many other occasions to celebrate than just your own birthday. Actually, insisting on celebrating your birthday would be a very selfish thing to do. You make people oblige to do things for your birthday and for you, and they have to make an effort to please you.

To do what? Celebrate your life?

Sheesh. I think birthdays should be meant for us to celebrate the life of all the other people who have helped and gave so much to us in our every day life, year after year.

Anyway, as we grow older, birthdays aren't much to shout about anyway. I mean, when we were small and young, it were the presents that were the main deal for birthdays. Don't deny it. Birthdays were only exciting to look forward to because of the presents.

Now, what are presents anymore? You won't get presents unless you throw a birthday party where you ended up costing your parents and yourself more money than what you actually receive in return. No?

And if you don't throw a party or go clubbing or something to "celebrate" your birthday, then who the hell are you expecting presents from except your parents? Even presents don't come in surprises or wishes anymore. They come slim and crisp. Money, money, money.

I guess after a decade or two, parents and relatives figured it would make more sense to give us the freedom to buy whatever we want - that way, they won't be troubled, and we would be happy. Win win situation.

I dunno about that, but I guess that kinda defeats the purpose of looking forward to your birthday. Especially when money is already something you have to work so hard to get.

I don't usually mind much about presents, it's the company that matters to me.

This year, I'm really kind of touched. I guess. In a huge way which I rather not let it show. Most of the time, it's not really about what you get. Sometimes, it's also not about the thought that matters. This time, it means that much to me because of who it was from. And I really appreciate it. The presents. The thoughts. The effort. The gesture.

Maybe there are some things that I still do look forward to, after all. :)

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Obviously someone plans to get me all fattened up, and yet make me not feel bad about myself while doing it. Huhu.

All I want to do at the moment is grab everybody and shout out to the world, telling them how I feel and what a fool I've been.

But I know all I can do now is to eat my own words, smack some sense into myself, and wait for tomorrow to come.

And then I'll come back home, and reminisce about what would have been.

Am I really happy with life at the moment?

...but then again, I don't drink. Huhu.

So today marks my one last week here in Penang. And panic mode is starting to kick in. Not only because I have yet to finish more than half the stuff I'm supposed to do before I go back KL, but also because I just realized how much work that I'm facing once I go back to Uni when I received my Final Year Project brief yesterday.

It's astounding, to say the least.

As for stuff that I have yet to complete, I really need to kick myself in the head and really, really get down to getting them done, such as - repairing my laptop, changing my glasses, recording some audio samples, renewing my passport...which reminds me that I need to repay my PTPTN loan because I just received a letter dated 14th JULY 2009 saying that I need to settle my payment within 14 days from the date. Or else, face getting barred from leaving the country.

HOW TO GO MELBOURNE. T_T

Gosh. I hate how all these crap starts getting to you all at once. I've always hated getting into debts and borrowing money. And just as I thought I could finally settle one debt, another one like this pops up. Hoseh liao.

Okay nevermind. I'm gonna just put this shit aside, and focus on other matters which I need to settle in this final week of mine in Penang, before I head back to all the good things that await me back in KL this coming week.

But then again, there are some things in Penang that I just can't bear to leave behind.

As much as I wish to be a success in pursuing a career in the music industry, doing my rap music, I'm thankful to know that even though I know that will hardly materialize, I still have many options to choose from, in building a career in life.

And for that, I'm loving everything I do, and never once do I regret choosing to further my studies doing graphic design.

At the end of the day, I will have to decide on a path to walk in the next phase of life - but I'm glad to know that all the other choices that I do choose, will still be bonuses in life for me to enjoy.

Have a great day at work tomorrow people, and love what you do!

I just read through the recent 5 pages of my blog. And it made me miss blogging, a lot. 

I don't really know why I somehow stopped blogging here in Multiply, but I'm sure everybody agrees that Facebook played a huge role in updating everybody else about what we are doing and have been up to.

But the problem is, it only keeps everybody updated at that current moment. The moment you update your status, the moment you upload a photo - comments come scurrying by. But once your status or post is a few minutes or hours old, it gets burried under everybody else's updates and quizzes and applications and what-nots. It won't get noticed. People generally won't go to profile by profile to specifically see what you've been up to lately - they rely on their home page updates. Therefore, updates just fly by constantly and it's gone before you know it.

That's why I miss blogging. Even if nobody bothers to read what I have to say, at least I know I can come back here a few months or years later, and catch up on what I have been up to back in the day.

And yes, I really do regret not updating my blog constantly since I started my internship at BBDO/Proximity. Maybe it's because I've never been this busy with life to pause and jot down all the details and thoughts I have about the experiences. I'm thankful to have the chance to live this life where there is always something new for me to enjoy every week, yet I can't deny that it does make me kind of exhausted at times - exhausted from having too much fun, you can say.

Life does get a little crazy sometimes, especially in the recent months. And it also gets a little disappointing alot as well. But I guess for the kind of fun that I'm enjoying from life at the moment, I guess I'm in no position to complain about it. The fun, the knowledge, the experiences, the pride, the lessons, the rights, the wrongs, the indulgences, the guilty pleasures, the relaxation, the thrills, the friends, the girlfriend, the family, and every little bit of this and that, makes me a better person day by day.

It also helps when I have a partner who's totally down with everything I do, and having the same interests - even though we still disagree on my new interest, Call Of Duty 4. Nevertheless, it's kinda cool to have someone to share everything that you like doing, together with you, and I really don't think I will ever get used to having a girl who doesn't come close to sharing as many of my interests and hobbies as MsGF does. Huhuhu.

But enough about the good life. It only makes me regret more about not blogging for the past few months, with the exception for my obligatory updates regarding my album and my music. I really should make sure that I continue blogging about my life so that I won't miss out on any memories as I read back on my posts from time to time in the future. Although I must admit, there's gonna be a blank space for the lack of real updates since April this year.

Maybe it was just me being too big for my shoes and thinking that I couldn't be bothered blogging because I had better things to do. Maybe it was me being conceited for a moment there. But I know myself well, and I know that I won't let myself be complacent or feeling that I'm too good for something, because I know that would be my own downfall.

Nevertheless, I'm typing this just to remind myself to continue blogging once again - because as we grow older, time goes by ever so faster, and it would be comforting to know that there's something that lets me indulge in the good old times (and the bad times) of my life once again.

That said, I really should spend my final fortnight here in Penang wisely before I head back to Uni once again to continue my studies. So peeps, let's hang out! Call me! And Michelle you PPK-ed me today. Bugger.

Good morning everybody. :D

Today, my alarm clock woke me up at 2.30pm.

I got out of bed, and I checked my email.

It was raining. I took pictures of the mist and dark clouds.

I stared at the rain.

I had Mee Goreng for lunch at 5pm. By the time I finished, it was already 7pm.

I checked my email again.

Oh gosh it's already 9pm. I feel sleepy already.

Good night.

Holidays, how I love thee.

Did a couple of graffiti stuff for the F&N Freestylz 2009.




Got featured in the NST and ROTTW.





And also performed for XFM's X-Gig Xtended Music Kedua.
