the goddamn

today... a couple of us went to BTS to catch Transformers 2. we just go without booking or anything and only rely on sheer dumb luck to get tickets to watch. on the way, i had a couple of anger outburst with my stupid TnG card. stupid piece of crap that seems to be failing on me a lot lately. but that doesnt matter coz this Transformers we're talking bout. Something that was and still is a big thing. So when we arrive, we notice a amazingly long queue. goddamn it this shows the amount of people today. so we went to the ticketing counter and found a slightly long queue which is kinda normal during weekends. while in queue heard an employee of the cinema telling everyone that tickets for Transformers are sold out. the only seats available will be on 7pm but only front row seats. front row seats of course means we will have a hard time watching the movie plus we will get massive neck injuries after the movie. well then we decide to watch something else(this shows we are flexible.. XD).Then we reach the ticketing counter, we find that many of the movies that we wanna watch instead of Transformers are full as well. You guys notice something???? Even with the flu outbreak scare and despite the governments advice to stay away from crowded areas seems to be falling on deaf ears. Instead of heading the advices, we are actually creating bigger crowds. I've notice a couple of people wearing face masks but in an improper way of course. Wearing it that way, u will get the flu just like anyone else. whats the point of wearing one when your risk is just as high as anyone else. Back to topic, when we found out that almost every movie we wanted to watch was kinda full, we discuss about what to do next or what movie to watch to be exact. While we were discussing, there's this couple of guys at the reserves counter claiming their tickets. They presented a piece of paper which they have their details on it. BUT... jeng jeng jeng... their details are invalid. Apparently, the cinema has a 5 digit code or something while they had a 6 digit ones... making their valid reserved tickets INvalid. kesian them. Then something miraculous happens. the counter lady says there 6 openings suddenly...WOOOHOO!!.. ( when i heard that.. i actually said YES! loudly with my elbow move.) of course at that moment, i didnt realise that the guys beside us were those who lost their tickets to us. Haha thanks mates... u guys got us one of the best seats in the house. hehe. by the way. try booking for next week lar. maybe u will get it this time. HAHA spoiler warning... the movie seem to be using lots of slow-mo on Megan Fox when she's running. You have to see it for urselves to understand why. nice show.. i give it an A-. just because the ending's a bit of an off thing for me. too simple for an ending. should be a little more dramatic with more action. besides that, i think there's a couple of very nice soundtracks. for example i would highly recommend u guys to listen to:
1. Linkin Park - New Divide
2. Green Day - 21 Guns
3. Cavo - Let It Go
4. Taking Back Sunday - Capital M-E
5. The Fray - Never Say Never
6. Nickelback - Burn It To The Ground
7. The Used - Burning Down The House
8. Theory Of A Deadman - Not Meant To Be
9. The All-American Rejects - Real World
10. Hoobastank - Don’t Think I Love You
11. Staind - This Is It
12. Avenged Sevenfold - Almost Easy
13. Cheap Trick - Transformers™ The Fallen Remix

well to be honest, most of them are nice. LP, Cavo, The Fray, Nickelback, Theory of A Deadman, Hoobastank and Staind being my favourite.

by the way, i hate the weather. it rained when i washed my car. WHY!! WHY!! why cant it snow... LOL

random

i learn that lots of people dunno how to differentiate diesel from gasoline aka petrol. a friend told me that he bought a new car, toyota vios to be exact which only runs on petrol. unless Toyota suddenly develop a small capacity powerful diesel engines that the world didnt know about. I found out when i ask how much he pump every full tank with petrol. my friend say he's using diesel, unleaded diesel. HAHA.. i laugh like there's tomorrow when i hear that... unleaded diesel. But.. well i guess not everyone really wanna knows whats going into their cars.. unleaded diesel. amazing... luckily he didnt actually go pump diesel into his own car... then it would be a miracle it is still running after soo long.

finally i feel like i am one step closer to victory.. but at the same time i feel like i just took 5 steps backwards. haha boleh mati weay... which means no progress.

group meeting was held again... with nothing useful from them. this time, they had a group meeting during my class which means i cant attend. If i cant attend, means my project is doomed. they will be doing all those stupid ideas. i am sooo doomed!!!!!~
Since they didnt tell me what happened in the meeting. then i guess i can just buat bodoh. but i am seriously scared they might give me autocad works. which sucks donkey ass... althought its a good training


today, i have to meet my academic adviser, Dr LYP. after my 5pm class. he's making me stay back for this dumb meeting when i could be at home creating havoc in New York city(in Prototype). the worse part bout this litlle meet was that out of 41 who should attend only 9 came. Then he starts blabbering bout everything. His life, his job. everything. its not like any of us wanna listen and it took him an hour to realise that none of us are actually fully aware of what he is talking bout. goddamnit... 1 hour i could have done 3 missions. mofo wasted 1 hour of my precious life.

project, the a-hole and the anger

after giving me a hard time controlling my laughter, those people finally come up with more hilarious ideas. Wheelchair with roofs, horns/buzzer, detachable wheels, shock absorbers, multi-purpose bags, head rest, adjusted beams(height), remote control. how can u guys come up with such ideas. amazingly simple minded. portability man.... means simplicity and easy to use. not to make it much more complex. goddamn. luckily i am smart enough to feed them my ideas. good thing they accept my ideas easily. its like taking a candy from a baby. next week will unveil how much they have learned from materials. hope they dont make me feel like committing suicide.

industrial training application sent, and found out certain companies on list not taking people or the company is closed. how can this happen when we are given assurance that all will take people. stupid SOB.. never give me assurance when you dont know what you are talking about. lazy SOB. soooo many applied tan chong in rawang. imagine the rejection rate.. i dont really care anymore... i just want to get a nice job with a proper pay. thats all. hope you jump of a cliff or something. save us the time of trying to end your career.

really pissed early in the morning for no reason. everything makes me angry. i felt like taking a sniper rifle and shoot down all those construction workers 1 head at a time(if i have a rifle in the first place).

The Yamaha R1 2009



I've always like bikes but well if only i knew i could have taken a B-full license last time... i would have taken it and be able to ride a higher capacity bike. My latest addiction is the sound the road-going Yahama R1 2009 makes. The rumbling from the twin titanium exhaust. The sound it makes when all 180bhp and 115.5Nm of torque unleashed is intoxicating.

The engine is a 998cc, 4 cylinder thats identical to the ones used in the MotoGP. Wonderful little thing. This bike has all the tech that will make a Proton look like a toy. Imagine variable length air intake, fly-by-wire YCCT electronically managed throttle inputs and lots more.





i think the way Yamaha solve the composite torque problem is cool. u see, when a engine with pistons undergo combustion, the power cycle creates a throttle torque which is controlable by the rider. but as u know after the power stroke, the crank is rotating purely on inertial torque which is fast when at bdc and slow at tdc. this causes a non-linear torque curve which is undesirable by the rider. they prefer a linear curve respond to the throttle. their solution? by altering the even firing order to a 270-180-90-180 uneven firing order. the noise u hear from the exhaust is from this unique firing order.



If only Yamaha has a manufacturing plant here...can go for Yamaha as well.. too bad... our choices are very limited. by the way this bike cost around USD 15k which is almost the price of a cheap car here.. minus taxes of course.. with taxes, this thing will cost a bomb.

Lunch in Manhattan and the goddamn wheelchair

no no... not New York Manhattan but the Manhattan Fish. haha... had a lunch with my brother and 2 friends of mine.

not bad for 20 bucks per person... alaskan dory... yummy... hehe i think i can go for another lunch there again. not bad at all... just that the 15% tax is day light robbery.

today(yesterday) i had my first group meeting on our project for the subject MED2. at first... i knew only one or two from my group. this kid i knew from foundations, a former classmate and another kid from a nearby college. okay lar.. i thought it wont be soooo terrible. then during the group meeting i found out that i have the over excited motherfucker, the bloody blur idiot and some unknown blur case as my group mates. i am sooo fucking dead for this project... for starters, they talked fucking mandarin. i give face to those guys who cant speak proper english. so i try to listen as much as i can. unfortunately someone noticed that i am not saying anything(finally). i always wonder... how dumb can one be.. to ask someone if they knew how to speak in mandarin, in mandarin. i forgave ur idiocy. now i know ur names. so i can curse u even better. i got a feeling i am in big trouble with this group. especially in the presentation part... i wonder if i can do this alone.. i rather be doing this alone then doing it with a bunch of yuppies.

Today(today). cleaned the kitchen and the space under the sink and found a mountain of treasure. Left by prehistoric monsters, their eggs are still there waiting for the time for it to hatch. was actually just mopping the section of the hall which has residue of starch and lizard shit all over the floor left by those people.. goddamn it.. its fucking dirty.. thank god it looks like a proper kitchen now.. atleast for the moment.. haha

THE line..

no i am not refering to any lines. this got to do with me going to Carrefour to replenish my stock. after taking dinner, went to carrefour to get some stuff like food and stuff. when i and ss were done, we were suprised by something. the amount of poeple queueing up in a line to pay. the lines were from the counters till the middle of the building... thats god damn long and the amount of people is insane considering that almost all of the counters are opened. and there's people putting back things on shelves.. well actually everywhere, on any anything they can reach. they are trying to minimize the amount of things they have to get into the express counter(which wasnt actually express, slow as hell). u can almost find anything u might want on any shelves nearby the counters. amazingly unique, u will see this a lot in malaysia. haha
by the way, we were in line for almost 2 hours just to get to the counter and pay up. amazing...



there's soo much people... big mistake going for shopping during the weekends.. no more next time..
while waiting in the line to pay for my stuff... i saw something funny... a kid was cycling on a small tricycle. i guess it must belong to carrefour, meaning it must be for sale and the kid just took it for a ride. i guess its ok as long as u return it(without anyone noticing of course). well he was riding between a row of handbag racks when something funny happened. the bike he was riding broke into 2...



it broke rite in the middle where its suppose to hold the weight of the cycler.. the kid noticing that many are watching what happened... panicked and ran to his mother which was just a couple of steps away from the kid. the best part is... the mother doesnt actually care what happened. this shows the darker side of we malaysians. we tend to take things for granted. funny... the kid panicked. the look on his face was priceless.. hahaha wondered where the bike was made... hopefully not malaysia... else we will have to worry every time we sit in our cars and bikes... worrying it might just break into 2 anytime..
