IT'S OUT!
NERD POWAH!

Personally, I'd say that this is his best so far (Not the hair, though). I liked every song the first time I heard it. This wasn't true for his previous albums. There's even an English song for all you I-only-listen-to-English-songs-fucker-fanboys~ :D

01. Singalongsong (English)
02. 小小蟲
03. 1234567
04. 黑白
05. 如果愛
06. 黑洞裡
07. 三人遊
08. 每個人都會 (song for Cartier 'Love Project')
09. 100種表情
10. 愛我吧
11. 為妳寫的歌(Bonus Track)

Who knows what lousy excuses will Syed Hamid Albar come up with next. Therefore I will not provide you with any download links as I don't wanna be detained under ISA for piracy.



Off topic:=> I caught two cats about to have a catfight(duh). And I think I somehow by divine will prevented the fight from occuring.(Awww) :(

Big Things Come In Small Packages

They say big things come in small packages. Well for once I think I believe them. Today I finally decided to get it, after an eternity of deliberation.


Cheap, fast, and sharp all in one tiny package.

No, I didn't get a razor with a motor. Come to think of it, maybe I should...

I first went to Sunway Pyramid to hunt it down. But it had other ideas. After walking for more than an hour, I ended up buying two T-shirts instead. :(

Well I couldn't just leave with nothing right?
I had to drive all the way to KL to find what I wanted for a reasonable price. Even there I had to walk around for quite awhile before finally finding what I wanted.



Anyway, my new favourite thing at the moment.



Aww...don't haiya so loud la. I'm sure you would've thought I'd gotten something else besides this.


Seriously, this piece of plastic is very sharp for its price.

This was shot using it.

I'd say very good work for something made in Malaysia

How I did those white-background shots.

Half Ton of Junk

I'm going to haunt The Star to eternity by reporting their errors. Maybe they'll employ me as their head editor. :)

Communist at heart

Our Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi ala Soviet Cold-War style.


Here's another picture to convince you.

What is better than..

One bottle(well, more to big-assed container) of Whey?

TWO bottles of Whey, of course!

Our Education is Fucked.

As I was digging through my old stuff, I came upon this folder.



It sure did bring back memories of 2006. Not to mention it also managed to shed new light onto some things that might just have been overlooked if it were any other ordinary person looking through it.



Yes. I'm implying that I'm special. Fuck the Copernican principle*.


*For those who STILL do not understand what the principle meant even after looking through Wikipedia's article, it just means that I'm special. :)

There was a series of "l33t (elite)" camps organised by the State Ministry of Education back in 2006. These "elite" camps were went for, well, "elite" students like me (aHAHHahaahah). Each school was required to send a few participants for the camp. If I remembered correctly, I was the wildcard entry. :(

So at these camps, we were basically given a folder like the one you've seen and throughout the duration of the camp there would be seminars conducted. Rooms were shared five to a room. Have I mentioned the rooms suck? The food too.

Ok, so the subjects covered were the Science subjects, English, Additional Maths, and I SERIOUSLY forgot if BM was covered. I wouldn't have given a shit anyway. During those seminars, we the "elite" students were given tips on answering questions.

So as I was looking through the papers, ONE stood out from the rest.

Basically because it didn't have those colorful standard covers like this one.

AND also because it had ENGLISH on its front page. IF you call it english though. Look at this.

The first thing you'll notice is that it is FILLED with red paint. So much so that it'd look better if the whole thing was red.

All in all, I conclude that that ISN'T English. As much as you(Hishamuddin)'d like to deny it, our education is fucked.

Well like, DUH.

Town Hall Meeting with Our ADUN

Hannah Yeoh, the ADUN for my area organized a meeting with the residents of SS18 at the SS18 padang. Yeah, she specifically mentioned "For the residents of SS18 only."

But naturally residents from all the adjacent areas HAD to come, including yours truly. Well, I was actually just following my mum who wanted to go.

Yeah, and like every other Good Ol' Malaysian, we arrived anything but on time. That is a good whole THIRTY minutes late. The 'meeting' had already started by the time we arrived.

Have I mentioned that the location of the meeting was only 500m away?







I've got no idea what happened before I arrived, but it was Q&A session when I got there. Residents took turns voicing out their opinions.






This man was damn tulan about the double parking problem in SS15 (that's where all the banks are). Hannah tried to explain about the 'two types of problem' that lead to double parking. Two of which I didn't buy at all. The first 'problem' is that there is absolutely no parking available and the person has to double park. The second 'problem' is that the person just double parks 'for the lulz'.






This uncle was also damn tulan about the public transport. He complained that public buses RARELY turned into the main road dividing SS14 and SS18. Hannah asked him if he knew "how to lodge a complaint with Metro Bus". Well if he knew he wouldn't be complaining, wouldn't he?

This poor uncle's case was the most kolian one liao. He said people always dumped their garbage in front of his house. Illegally. Bangladeshi grass cutters dumping the cut grass in front of his house. And to cap the whole tulan-ness off, people would dig through the garbage for things they might want, aluminium cans, used syringes, undetonated WWII nukl33r bombs, and leave the garbage all over the place. Hannah advised him to contact MPSJ regarding his problem. Somehow I doubt MPSJ would be efficient enough to react fast enough to catch the culprits…

Did I mention there was food? But since I had a lousy camera in my hands I couldn't take any food or risk spilling it all over the camera. The pictures aren't really clear, but what the hell do you expect when you're using ISO 1600 without a flash, well some with.

Some people were still so excited about Hannah Yeoh ans stayed around to bug her even after the event was over.

Yeah, the meeting was held in a playground...area.

I Went to the Exam venue today anything but prepared..

Canon recently launched a new campaign christened "Canon Goes Green". They're really aggressively promoting this campaign. Giving out freebies, t-shirts, trying to get the people involved.

Upon closer analysis of their campaign, I noticed a motto used very frequently in their promotions.

The phrase "Join The Movement" appears all the time. A seemingly innocent phrase, urging people to be more environmental. Any normal person would've passed that phrase off as nothing.

Not me.

I'm not Any normal person. And I'll tell you why. I've uncovered the biggest conspiracy theory since the infamous 1998 sodomy case. Try translating the phrase "Join the Movement" into Bahasa Malaysia.
It becomes "Sertailah Gerakan". What was originally a seemingly innocent phrase turns out to be a hidden subliminal political propaganda. If you see as I see it, you should see something like this.

This is the start of what is to be a wave of subliminal political messages hidden within advertisements, posters, etc.

Be careful, you might unknowingly get brainwashed. However if you INSIST to be brainwashed, here's the map.

Of Conspiracy Theories

2008. Compared to 60 years ago, EVERYTHING is going on hyperdrive. Okaay, maybe Leung Keet's brain will still be slow, but fuck it. : )

Anyways, in the midst of the hectic lifestyle of the 21^st century, fast food has become the "it" thing. People choosing fast food "think" they're getting their food fast, but they have totally no idea that fast food actually stands for "faster-die-food". I'll go one step further in trying to explain this. Listen properly or you'll miss it.

It'sActuallyATopSecretGovernmentPlanForPopulationControlTheGovernment-
-HandedOutContractsToDifferentCompaniesToCarryOutTheirAtrociousPlan.

Don't say I didn't ask you to listen properly. Anyways, fat-food (n0pe, that's NOT a typo) chains are popping up everywhere. Nandos®, Kenny Rogers®, McDonalds® just to name a few.

Conspiracy-theorists have nothing better to do. They have this uncanny knack of spotting a conspiracy ANYWHERE they look. One such conspiracy theory formulated by the great conspiracy-theorist Ganina Xingli is as such.

Notice the similarities in the food served in various fast-food chains?

• Contains more oil than the Gulf War oil Spill

• Causes heart disease very successfully

• They ALWAYS taste the same
  

One similarity might have been passed as an anomaly, but these similarities seemed to be conforming into a unique pattern. Through these repeating patterns the great Ganina Xingli finally came up with a conspiracy theory to explain these similarities. He theorized that about 60 years ago, the Dalai Lama had a premonition about the global population going out of control. The governments of the world realized that the global population was increasing exponentially and was going to go out of control unless they did something.

So the governments of the world had a secret meeting in one of the thousands of caves somewhere in the mountain ranges of Kathmandu. Our country, Malaysia, or Malaya as it was known then was represented by our very own Tunku Abdul Rahman. Remember reading in our history books our Tunku went to Britain to negotiate our country's independence? Forget that, the fact is Tunku went with the British government to the mountain ranges of Kathmandu for the top secret meeting to discuss the global population crisis.

After 13 weeks and 37 hours, they came to a decision. They would set up "faster-die-food" chains around the world. At the same time, their top intelligence officers did their own research and found out that the name "faster-die-food" wasn't going to be very marketable. On the other hand, they found out that "fast-food" was far more marketable. So the name fast-food as we know today stuck.

The year was 1940. Notice that this is the SAME YEAR THAT MCDONALDS® WAS ESTABLISHED. Kentucky Fried Chicken popped out 10 years later as the governments were scared that their population control plan might be uncovered by people who were getting suspicious of McDonalds® monopoly of the fast-food market. Soon more and more fast-food chains followed suit and set up franchises all over the world.

Soon after the great Ganina Xingli uncovered this theory, the world was in a state of global panic. The governments knew they had to do something. And fast. So after another top secret meeting, this time the location was speculated to be in one of the gazillion rooms at the residence of the Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah, they decided that the then-CEO of McDonalds®, Mr. Iam Stu Pid Andumb would sue the great Ganina Xingli in a $13.37 billion lawsuit for defamation.

But on the day the great Ganina Xingli was supposed to be prosecuted, police found that he had simply "vanished" from his holding cell. Hundreds of theories have been formulated as to what had happened to the great Ganina Xingli. Some say he died while crossing the border between the US and Mexico. Some say he migrated (see Hijrah) to Malaysia and assumed a new identity and lives until now.

It happened a long time ago. But conspiracy-theorists do not forget easily. This is the reason why there are anti-government protests and riots every now and then. They are not simply just "anti-government protesters". In fact they belong to the ancient clan that worships the great Ganina Xingli. Every year, on the twenty fourth day of the eleventh month, followers of the great Ganina Xingli gather in remembrance of the great Ganina Xingli and celebrate his work as one of the greatest conspiracy-theorists that ever lived, or still living.

PS: Did I mention my birthday was November 24^th?
PS 2: Try rearranging "Ganina Xingli"
PS 3: The above is totally rubbish, but thank you a million for spending your time reading.

I was messing around with some old photos that I took not too long ago. And I converted this normal looking I-wouldn't-give-a-fuck-or-look-at-it-twice photo




into this Oh-my-god-I-can-spend-the-whole-day-looking-at-it gem.

[click to enlarge]

No I did not photoshop anything. I just used some software to create a HDR image of the original photo.
Here's the link to download that Oh-my-god-I-can-spend-the-whole-day-looking-at-it gem.



Ok ok, I lied. :)
That image you just downloaded is of the lowest quality and has a big ass watermark all over it. However, if you wish to get that image, you can contact me personally and I'll send it to you...

..provided you've got enough patience to wait for 8mb to finish transfering.

Nope, the picture doesn't have anything to do with the title at all. I just thought the scenery was eye-pleasing.
Well then, after a week of slacking, University's starting again. And let's hope it won't be as boring as this holiday.
Until then.
