Did You Know??

I think not many of us might realize the resemblance in game covers, but that doesn't mean that movie titles aren't fallen back behind O.O
Kinda weird if you asked me, used to see a picture before where they show the psychological colors of movie posters, but not sure where those went....

But then again there's just so many part of the human body we can use~~

First Wing Chun Class

well there are just some things in life you've just gotta try XD





honestly I am not really sure why I am doing this, but then again I'm not having any regrets about it too~~

but yeah, did not even know about this fist form at all till I watched the movie that everyone might've heard of, Ip Man... and from there you could see the fighting style in the movie which stood out from most other Kung Fu movies was because it looked real, simple movements, but real fighting and not like the usual Chinese movies where the character would mindlessly fly around the whole city, jumping on roof's and bamboo shoots~
and from then on I became really interested in learning, could this be a form of media influence??? I guess so..... very highly~

well of course to find a place to learn is always the problem, because google malaysia doesn't seem to be that all helpful at all...
not to mention one of these little wooden thingy would cost around a crazy price of RM1900+.. -_-"

BUT eventually I managed to find a place that teaches Wing Chun.... and to a weird and odd way, it's actually located ultra nearby my house *oh joy*

price is actually really reasonable, a very small place with a few students... but I like it, has a very vintage, old feel to it ~~ some of the student's aren't that bad too and easy to mix around with, but some are a pain (there's one in every place), then the forms are also a problem at first, to keep the body posture right, to move the legs correctly and in sync with the punches... but thanks to some of the student's guidance it all seems a little easier to learn together, some of them look really good, but they only had 2 months of training... huh~ well that's inspiring =]

either way, we'll see how things go la, can't really say much after a first class though~~ wish me luck :)

I Think I'm Going Broke

I think I'm gonna be broke soon -_-






I know the basic principle of like is to save your money for a rainy day, but sometimes the temptations of the world is so great.......... but then again also.... sometimes money can't bring you happiness but it sure can be used to bring out the best of the time at the moment~~
here's what came in the mail this week~~ yes I did a pre-order for the first time in my life, for the price I got I'd say it's really a deal, along with the free shipment all the way from Singapore~ crazy fun game~ this is supposily a "Steelbook" edition.... but it isn't steel... just a very nice quality plastic.... worse to worse there was a little dent on the corner, but I don't complain~ just as long as the game is working I'm fine with it~~
got this too though... got to share the cost with friend so it won't be that painful~
not quite sure why I got this game though, but got it at a 2nd hand price which is really cheap so.... ah well, not that damaging~~

and with those three games I thought that I should be ready for my upcoming December holiday to go wild~

till I saw this.........
a remake of the most epic game in the world now remaked into HD -_-"

and honestly I have no idea what I was doing but I suddenly ended up pre-ordering it.... now I stop to think what in the world have I done -_-"
not to mention it wasn't too long ago when game designer Hideo Kojima announced a remake of Zone of the Enders into HD too....... -_-

Jehuty in glorious 1080p........... -_-"

why are you all doing this to me???

Either way I think I'm going to be cutting myself from a lot of meals to repay the damage done to my wallet

But yeah I think I went a little overboard now..... taking some time to repent at the moment and drown myself in regret by playing till I form on the weekends~ but yeah no buying anymore things at the moment !!!

Thank goodness I still have a fair amount of my savings left so still not that bad~

This must be like how a girl feels like after shopping... whew~~

Flickr is Back~

I miss portrait taking.... but then again I'm glad I can finally Flickr again =]

either way if you wanna check out my Flickr page, in which I think might not really be all that interesting but if you just wanna check it out just click HERE

anyone in the mood to take pictures?? =P

Forget...

I think being forgetful is one of the worse feelings ever....







Probably time to get myself a planning book or whatever you call it, planner?? Don't know... either way now I am not even being able to remember some dates... not like literally forgetting everything, but just sometimes not remembering some details like the date of a meeting till on the exact day when the boss tends to call up and remind me

But what kinda got more serious was when I forgot my Flickr account password and couldn't update a single picture at all for the past few months till I just managed to figure it out today -_-

Not to mention I kinda forgot my Play Station Network password also.... which is getting to be kind of weird cause I use an international, universal password on most of my accounts so the chances of this happening is kinda odd.... oh well~~ at least my password on my PS3 does an auto-login so it's all still safe and can still do multiplayer~~ =]

Ahh well... term's coming to an end~ work is piling up, still wondering how can finish everything before the holidays then go wild XD

But I'm bored.... so here's an interesting comic on forgetfulness =p

Blogging Doesn't Seem All That Fun Anymore

Blogging doesn't seem to be that fun anymore........




I remember those days of staying up late night just to write up a blog post and wait till morning to copy and paste that post and upload it with such great joy.... even spending hours just resizing some pictures to upload it and show the world... but somehow recently it doesn't seem so fun anymore....

Of course I'm not against the blogging thingy, in fact I'm thankful for blogging, because typing so much has made my fingers so used with the keyboard that I no longer have to look at it to type, therefore taking notes in class is easier, and I can even feel when I've pressed a wrong key, and writing down a lot of reflections is also useful when writing reflection papers for some assignments.... 5 pages in an hour isn't much of a problem too!

But somehow the blogging world isn't so IN anymore? Not sure... of maybe cause my blog by itself seems to be dying already... not to mention now my cbox is being filled with spam everyday, even the comments on some of my post is being filled with so much different kinds of spam... and no that's not an indication that your blog is suddenly filled with people commenting on it, but rather spam by don't know which fella.... so it's kind of depressing sometimes...
then again still trying to find that motivation to write more and do more... even had thoughts of deleting my whole blog already and just quit blogging... but I'm not sure anymore~

either way still thinking about it, but see how la unless motivation strikes me hard~ but we'll see how things go....

but yeah... any suggestions for a new chatterbox on the side?? I need to get rid of my cbox already cause of the spam... looking for a new spam-free-proof kinda thing.... so yeah for those who have wrote on the side and I still thank you for reading it... but if you can maybe until I find a new spam proof one, just comment on the posts... it'll be so much easier~ besides I don't even go thru the cbox history to check ~~

Be Nice To Fat People

This must be one of the best pictures I've ever seen in my life~ XD

Almost made me burst out in laughter in class too... dangerous picture....

New Language

whew.......

Huh…….. for one of today’s presentation we had to do a language learning thing, because now we are being taught by a lecturer that knows around 22 languages… in which is kinda crazy if you think about it, I thought I was quite good already to know around 5 languages~~

But either way she taught us some of the methods, but the methods were quite similar to the style that was used by my Japanese teacher when I was learning Japanese then… of course couldn’t finish the whole course cause of college work and stuff… but either way one of the assignment we had to do for the week was to find a helper to teach us a language, then record the person saying that language down, repeat and repeat and repeat till you get it… etc etc and so forth… everyone had their own language to choose, hokkien, Hainan, Nepal, mandarin, Cambodian, orang asli malay, etc. for me ah…. Huh…. Well I just decided to give Japanese another try and had mrs.Chee to help me with the recording… it would be embarrassing to her if I uploaded the audio recording of her voice, so I’ll just put down what I had to say in class:

① こんにちわ。わたしの名前は。。。。です。どうぞよろしくおねがいします。

(hello. my name is .... please to meet you,

konnichiwa. watashi no namae ha .... desu. douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.)

② わたしはマレーシア人です。

(i am a malaysian,

watashi ha mare-shia jin desu.)

③ わたしの好きな食べ物はnasi lemakとチキンです。

(my favorite/like food is/are nasi lemak and chicken,

watashi no suki na tabemono ha nasi lemak to chikin desu.)

④お元気ですか？

(how are you?, ogenki desu ka?)

④ わたしは良い一日を楽しみしています。

(i am looking forward to a good day,

watashi ha yoi ichi nichi wo tanoshimi shiteimasu.)

either way everything went well while I was presenting.... but somehow screwed up at the 5th one and begun to panic so I think I might've said something wrong....

ahhhh.... dun bother la at least I'm done with it~ but hopefully I did well...

Sleeeepppppp

urrrrrrrrrrr.............. I wanna sleep...........................

Tired, tired tired tired tired…. Having a mixed combination between morning classes and my Christian duty too at the same time isn’t a pleasant feeling… why?? Well I guess cause having an intense course now where I’m given an assignment every day, and a huge amount of readings to finish within a week… which isn’t all THAT bad… as I said to myself…

Another thing to add on to the hard course would be the college putting me in charge of making breakfast in the morning… yes they just had to do it… in which my schedule would be

• 1. Wake up at 6am
• 2. Drag myself across the cold street to the college kitchen in the darkness of 6am
• 3. Clean up kitchen at 6am in the morning
• 4. Take care of the rat that was caught in the cage at 6am
• 5. Take out the bread it’s friends and set them on the table at 6am
• 6. Wait for the people to come and eat at 6:45am
• 7. Clean up everything at 7:15am
• 8. Go back and prepare for 8am class

Have I mentioned these were done beginning from 6am in the morning? And every day I’m honestly just falling asleep in class, bought myself 30 sweets for RM2 in the pasar malam and I think it’s barely even working for me, green tea isn’t keeping me awake too… besides, I’m not a coffee person, never loved the taste of it~ only way of survival is to survive till 10:00am where we have a 30min break and thus I’ll just pass out on the table and hopefully nobody comes to kacau me… people can get kinda dangerous when they are sleepy~

Somehow I wonder to myself everyday as I drag myself to the kitchen in 6am in the morning in the cold darkness that is this my punishment because I haven’t really been waking up faithfully at 6am in the morning for the past 4 years in college life???? I don’t know…….. but I know that my God is a sure joker and this might be another one of his ways of teaching me, or punishing me -_-

Urrrr man….not having that much time to spam my ps3 too… how I miss those days… now after 2hours I feel tired of playing already… this is bad… no time no time.. busy busy… wooooo….

Either way I think I’ve gotta be getting back to my work now, oh Lord….

Life's a Beach

I think I wanna get back into blogging again.....

It's really been a darn ultra super long crazy long time since I've ever blogged.... and it's been super long, and I know it because I just lost an interest to just go online to my blogger and blog about whatever has been happening in life... 

One reason was cause of a crazy super ultra year, with workloads and assignments and readings that can drive a man close to insanity till a moment where I just didn't wanna blog again.. (final year of course) and if those who were following me most of the time even wondered where I haven't done a shoot nor have I been updating on pictures more than I usually do.... 

I don't know.... I guess at this moment of business I've kinda even got bored of looking for time to go and take pictures, gotta apologize too to those who were harassing me asking for a photoshoot but I couldn't find the time to go out with you to do it... whew...

I've also stopped doing a lot of things already... but as time gone by, not doing all that I usually do, it can make a person rusty very fast~

why so??? Well recently I've met a friend who wanted to learn photoshop so I decided to teach her a few, but then while I was teaching her I suddenly couldn't remember how I did some of my stuff, I forgot how some hotkeys functioned already and other stuff...

not to mention that I think my photography skills have started to rust a bit, somehow my camera gear doesn't seem to be working as good as it originally should...

Hmmmmm......................

worse to worse.... I think after not taking pictures for some time my camera has poped out some odd little spots in it....

 

here's the example of how dirty my lens/camera is now.... 

took me awhile to remove all the dots bit by bits though.... stressful cycle...

till I became a little scared that my camera would begin to mold soon... so I got myself this dry box... ki siao rm280 suddenly gone =(

either way.... I guess putting off what you love doing isn't all that good, but rather even at the moment of busy-ness one shouldn't put aside the things that makes you, you... if not when you wanna do it again, well it'll be darn hard to get it back again... sigh.... either way~ will try to step back into blogging... slowly... since now having a crazy crash course at the moment now~~

 

Other than that..... trying to practice more on black n white pictures at the moment.... this picture was a failed one though... they were supposed to do a heart shaped jump shot... oh well~~ 

see you all soon~~

Planking

Ever heard of Planking???






I think it's not really an IN thing in Malaysia yet??? But in the western part of the world it's kind of a new trend already in taking pictures, and it's kinda like now jump shot pics are like so out-dated already or something...
Planking.... in which I have no idea what it actually means, but mainly which is to just lie down on any object and straighten your whole body straight like a... erm... plank??? Then so forth and take a picture~~
Of course we would've agreed that Snoopy was the first who invented Planking.... but yeah for those who are still in the dark... well..... here's planking~~
I'm not quite sure but this picture of this Taiwan girl was the first picture that I saw.... then from this it came more pictures of people lying on the ground, streetlights, etc.... maybe she started it??? I have no idea.....
even the military...
Even the Koreans
Makes a great family portrait....
Shin Chan~ but of course in this it was him playing his usual game to act dead~ 装死游戏
you can do it anywhere on any surface
even the animals
but honestly some might even wonder if you're just planking or are you already dead...
even the children
as stupid as some might think this to be.... honestly I think this really requires a lot of still to stiffen the muscles up to make the body straight, especially when you're on such a surface it really is an "ouch" kinda thing though........
then again they say that nobody beats the shaolins~~

do it with a friend~

then of course there will be some people who are creative enough and would take something like this to the next level by adding in some creativity~~
how's about planking with your dog???
some might just end up with a painful ending...
some might just get you caught
some is just awesomly weird....
AND..... some is just abit overly extreme.... XD

but yeah that's just about it how the art of planking is like now.... and this following comic would explain more
and yeah some are already considering planking to be kinda boring and some are thinking of a new craze.... what's the next craze??? I have no idea.... but some are already starting one already...
ahhh yes.... they call it... "Owling" which is to squat like an owl.... interesting future we have~ XD
