Taking Over the World...

A late night of Monopoly with 3 crazy people and a whole lot of cursing and swearing makes monopoly hilarious. The players for that night were...

Sham
Halloween Boy, who manage to bring hell on the board. Being a "chi bai" (chinese punjabi fella) negotiation can be pretty darn tricky. The combination of two money minded race into one, everything IS a win win situation for him. Hence the famous saying "Never trust a bai/chinese fella."

Elaine
The Tough To-Fu, who is soft but do not let her fool you for she is a very determined player. She is The Survivor. You may think she's an easy win but her determination was so strong, Halloween Boy couldn't even take the pressure during the end of the game. The Tough To-Fu could get away from ridiculous hotel and aparment prices with her dice throwing skills. It was just scary.

Wan Yee
The Chinese Gangster, who had too much money in her hand. For a gangster she didn't get to control enough areas. With her own private aeroplane, she managed to get stuck in rush hour traffic. Don't ask how, cause we can't give you answers for it either. I was helping to build her clan to take down the evil Halloween Boy but he was too strong. Her triad didn't manage to stop him from bringing hell to board.

Leonard
The Clown, who didn't manage to do anything but just laughed his ass off during the whole gameplay. Tried to build The Chinese Gangsters clan but failed to do so. The first to be out of the game for he spent too much time and money at Halloween Boy's hotels. WAY TO MUCH TIME AND MONEY! Knowing clowns are all about fun and laughter, the dice made him land at spots that he couldn't afford. He went bankrupt.

These are the characters who were involved in this ridiculous journey... the saga will continue... stay tuned.... :D

note: last was the best monopoly session I ever had in my life! The funniest, the whackiest and the first time I ever stayed till the END of the game for four players. LOL!

Sarcasm...

A night with my family yesterday in KL. Was trying out couple of frames for my new pair of glasses that's going to arrive soon. We all decided to go have a look at Pavilion. Looked really grand and big but nothing that i can afford inside. So while my mom, sis and I were walking in, mom decided to look back and...

Mom : EH?! Where's your dad?!
Me : Behind la...
Mom : I don't see him also!
(dad appears way behind blending in with a bunch of people when i said way behind i really mean WAY BEHIND!)
Mom : OMG! Your daddy is SO slow LIKE TORTOISE!
Me : HAHA! It's not like you don't know that he's always slow...
Mom : True also le... but can't blame him le since his legs are short plus his weight he's gonna get shorter...
Me : WAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! MOM YOU DAMN EVIL!

Had dinner after that at Planet Hollywood. Got myself a Tequila Lime Chicken. Man, that half a chicken is fucking HUGE! HUGE I TELL YOU! Wonder what they feed their chickens.... half a camel? Geez...

-END-

Musc, Art and Food makes me happy...

Was at groove for the past three days. Listening to a bunch of jazz cats playing that sort of way really blew my music mind. Something about music that amazes me. It sucks you in. The feeling of having being warped into a different dimension. The goosebumps, the *mmph* factor, the twitch on your face which something hits you unexpectedly, the spaced out feeling, etc. I really don't know how I will survive if music wasn't a part of my life. The sad thing, I want more, I want more bands that will hit me this hard, but there's not many in this country. The drive has been kicking in again and again. Genting Jazz festival is still fresh in my mind. Even though it didn't sound that good but I've seen different styles of music that is unique in it's own way. The creative mind on breaking all rules of different genres of music to form something good and not destroying it. I can just go on and on about this but my laptop battery life doesn't allow me to do so.

Food, sort of like music, Eleena has been asking me to go to groove again and again. She really awed me in many ways that puts a smile on my face without fail. She fixed me a really nice dish last night, well, it's my favourite dish. Really took my time eating it. Savouring every single bite because it was too damn tasty. I can never enjoy Japenese food. It doesn't give me that expected feeling. I like something that it doesn't taste like how it looks. For example, the damn hainanese chicken rice at ss2 mamak. It looks sloppy, the glance you might think that it's just another ordinary plate of chicken rice but somehow it tastes different. Something about it that makes it just right. That sort of thing.

Was at Attic the other day helping Adil record his session. There were a couple of paintings on the wall which I caught my attention during Mia's birthday party. It was still there that night. While chilling and recording Adil's set I bumped into a friend of mind, he told me that it was his friends work. I'm like "Shit! He really did a good job cause it caught my attention." Right after that his friend came along and he introduced me to him and...

Friend A : This is the guy who did the paintings...
(i turned to my left and...)
Friend B : Fucker! You don't remember me already is it?!?!?
(my eyes were huge when he said that)
Me: Oh fuck! DUDE! Sorry sorry sorry!
Friend B : Ass la you I saw you walking up and down and you didn't even noticed me!

It was an old friend of mine. Yes, I am that blur when it comes to people. Was at laundry the other day and Adrian said the same thing to me. Happen to me at groove when there was once a friend who I was expecting at groove, she hit me on the cap and when i turned around it took me five seconds to register that it's her.

Yeah.. so that's all. On a lighter note, I hate this feeling when your chest is heavy with emotions and you are aware of the damn feeling. Having to battle with it kinda pisses me off. I'm at war with myself. Whenever I get this damn heavy chest feeling, the first thing in my mind would be... Fuck! Not good... not good at all. My mind would be on the right track but my emotions isn't and after awhile, KABOOM! I do something stupid when suddenly my mind loses track on what I'm feeling.

WLT vs. Facebook...

Was about to leave the house just now. Saw my mom sitting down watching the tube. As usual she'll be watching WLT. I think most of you do know what WLT is. Don't know flip to Astro's evil channel 33. Thinking that she was watching WLT, I was wrong because I saw a static image and first thing I said to her, "You actually started renting all this chinese drama now ar!?". Her reply was, "No ark. I didn't rent I BOUGHT them". I.... was... just..... speechless. The thing is my mom is so addicted to it she completely owns the damn TV starting from 9pm. How addicted? Let's see...

Case 1.
(was watching a show on TV)
Mom: eh... you watching this show ar?
Me: Yah... why? You wanna watch WLT right?
Mom: Ya loh... So can I change the channel?
Me: If I said NO you would have changed it anyhow right?
Mom: Ya...
Me: So why bother asking in the first place?
Mom: Just ask only le to tell you that I wan
Me: *Speechless*

Case 2.
(i came home and cross between mom and the tube)
(in my room my phone rang)
Mom: Eh... When you coming home?
Me: I'm in my... room? I passed right infront of your eyes!
Mom: Oh is it? I didn't see you
Me: *speechless*
(it happen for the 2nd time and i just walk to the living room with my phone ringing)

Case 3.
(2am in the morning)
(i went to the living room saw my mom sleeping)
Me: Eh... if you sleepy go sleep la!
Mom: No la watching this series
Me: How to watch when your eyes are close?
Mom: Listening...
Me: *speechless*

Case 4.
(watching anime)
Mom: Eh... nice meh watching all this cartoon.
Me: Yes cause of the art and the story. Better that wathing your WLT right? What's so nice about it?
Mom: The drama la...
Me: *i rest my case*

CHINESE DRAMA SERIES ARE EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which leads to another addiction, Facebook! Are you addicted to it? How many hours do you spend going through Facebook? Best part how many applications do you have on Facebook? I'm a facebook user as well, thank god I don't spend heaps of time in it. It's scarry! So, the question is, which is worse? WLT or Facebook? You decide... :D

Problem solving...

Been going through some bad luck spree. My Harddisk dieded on me the other day. Not sure if I can retrieve my data but I bought another HD to get my laptop up and running again. First time having to open up my Powerbook to install my new HD and I took 4 trips to the hardware store to look for proper screwdrivers. Now I'm finally back online! Woohoo!

Been thinking about loads of stuff lately but is it bad? The reason why I think is to find a way to overcome situations and NOT why are these sort of things happening to me. Finding an alternate route to make things better after something wrong that has happen. Falling into depression and thinking is a whole different thing. That would normally be negative thoughts which is unhealthy. Assumptions, thinking that someone is down all the time when that person is thinking of improving his mishaps. Ask and you would know what that person is thinking about. Been through a situation where I found out someone was going to hammer me without knowing what's going on.

Mind reading. The worst thing that could have ever happen. Everyone's thinks differently. You may think you know but you don't. A hobby that everyone does, including me, what's on his mind..... hmmmm? Ask and you'll find out. Don't answer for them. Difficult? Yes, in certain cases, not wanting to know the truth that might hurt you? Very true but then again better not to assume. Finding out from another party? It's okay, but don't take that persons word, just the surface would do then you get the story from the person itself without bringing in the other party. Something happen to me the other time which I did state in my post couple of weeks back. Solved it but not sure if it was sorted out after that, I've yet to ask.

Face to face confrontation. It's the best thing to do. Only works when the other party is willing to do it also. Laying down everything infront of that person. A full conversation without interuption. Text and email don't normally work properly, a lot of misunderstandings. If you decide to do it that way, state that you may not able to convey your words properly. Face to face can be difficult when tension builds up, what do you do? Try to mantain a calm conversation with the other party, if it tension builds up, better stop before it gets worse.

Words and courtesy, the above would work if your words don't turn out right. How you structure your sentence does affect someone. Some people think that it wouldn't matter but some people just don't wanna voice it out which you may think it's okay, when they think they might offend you.

Feeling kinda brain dead writting this so I think it's pretty vague. Note that what I say is just my own opinion and some things may work, and may not work. I will always write a note like this for every opinion I give because I know I'm not right and it's an open topic. :D and smileys work too.

Last nights chord progression...

Caffeine OD...

Just realized that I've been having coffee day and night, for the past few weeks. San Fran Mid Valley in the afternoons after dropping my mom off at work and Coffee Bean Sec14 at night, occasionally Starbucks Centrepoint with my babes (my laptop). Drove to Laundry last night to check out some bands again, and after many many years? I finally got to watch The Republic of Brickfields perform again. There's always one thing about raggae music, it keeps hitting me again and again. The natural high feeling is always nice. All I can say is, WE NEED MORE RAGGAE BANDS! :)

So, for the past few weeks I can just conclude that my life revolves around... coffee, more coffee, too much nicotine (which I really need to cut down on and not working), coffee, music, and coffee. A rountine that I've been doing for like... 5 years already or more?.... damn it, just realize that it's kinda... sad... (sad violin song played in background) .... BUT things changed I recently found myself a new friend after 5 years of being alone, someone who is willing to share the same passion which is having coffee!!! Someone who I met during mont kiara jazz fest!!!! SOMEONE WHO IS WILLING TO TAKE A PIC WITH ME EVEN THOUGH WE MET FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!! MY NEW COFFEE and MUSIC FRIEND!!!!!!!! *tears of joy rolling down my cheeks* PEOPLE...meet my new friend...

1 down, 1 more to go...

Sorted out my case, found out storries from both sides. Only thing I'm doing now is not taking sides. Not wanting to get involve in this because I didn't in the first place, worst bit I didn't even know what was going on. It caught me off guard. All I want is my name to be cleared to a point that both parties sees it as I'm not on anyones side. So far I'm feeling alright about it, just disappointed since I don't see this happening. People make mistakes, but the sad thing is hearing it from someone else about the mistake and getting involve in a mess which never included me in beginning is just upsetting. It sounded like I was the bad guy and the one that agreed to it which I didn't.

Oh well, the never ending dramas of life. Finally got it out off me and now I've got one more matter to fix. I just don't like leaving things hanging. I guess fixing only applies to people who are easy to talk too. Funny thing is I thought it was only my neck that needs fixing. End of the day I've got other things to fix ass well. HAHA! Damn. :D

Boiling point...

Here I am sitting down at Sec14 Coffee Bean trying to chill. Trying to calm myself down. Trying not to let anger take over me. Something I found out ticked me off badly to a point that I feel used and not for a good cause. All I can do now is wait patiently to find out some truth behind this. Something that I just wish that it won't happen especially trust and respect was given. Something that people think that they can get away with because I'm nice.

Thank god I got my neck fixed soon enough. At least I'm able to be patient about it and not get so stressed out like I normally do before it was fixed.

Seminar...

Was at a 5.1 surround sound seminar today organised by Nuemann, a company that manufactures high end condencer microphones. Interesting bit was knowing the history of Nuemann. Till now I was never a big fan of 5.1 surround but was interesting to know its current applications in the states these days, which is mainly for sports. Having to feel the environment but at the comfort of your own home. The crowd, the hall reverb when everyone cheers, screaming fans and what not. Good thing is, I got another idea to do something next year. Will keep in mind when my project kicks off. :) The best part of the seminar, FREE SENNHEISER earphones... hahaha! Typical chinaman.... oh and free refreshments too and the seminar was free! Really enjoyed myself, refreshing my mind with audio stuff again is fun. :D

The Journey...

01. Need pickup the guitar again after 2 years.
02. Need to find a way to get more money.
03. Need to use money to buy some gear.
04. Need to start writing some material.
05. Need to record some drum samples.
06. Need to find a suitable software.
07. Need this to be kick ass.
08. Need this to be fun.
09. Need this to bring a genre back to KL.
10. Need to get it done by next year.

For the love of music be prepared. This is gonna happen... :)
