Shop
Oof! I haven't been blogging for a week now. Nothing much happened. Saw some movies. Played lots of basketball.
I did spend one whole day shopping (shop! shop! 血拼!) with Fish and Nico and i didn't know that aimless ambling around in a shopping mall can take up so much time! I finally acquired a pair of decent jeans (with no holes in them). The cutting is somewhat strange and baggy but am happy enough.
My fantastic white shirt (with bone/mother-of-pearl buttons) remains elusive. Bah! I poked my head into shops and boutiques, scanning around for some tell-tale sign of a fantastic white shirt but none caught my eye, so my search continues!
I did, however, purchase an orange-and-black pair of sports shorts to wear to play basketball but alas it turned out to be too tight for me. Damn. Should always always try them on. Thank god for the return policy. Returned and exchanged it for an orange-and-blue pair. Orange-and-blue was goddamn contrasting but though horrible, they were no match for the other two colours: brown (most unflattering brown colour, just imagine those buncho poster-colour brown) and orange, or sugarcane green and yellow. Nasty!
Also purchased were two pairs of socks, as mine were getting worn out and have lost their elasticity. And that was all i bought after a day's outing. Disastrous, really.
***
I watched two movies. Wanted and Get Smart.
Wanted is really cool if you enjoy super-stylish and nail-biting action scenes with inexplicably impossible stunts. The Angelina sports-car scene was just damn cool. However if you are, like me, skeptical and inquisitive, you will be wrinkling your brows throughout the movie, thinking thinking thinking with disbelief. I mean, how! and how! can a person snipe another in such a manner from such a distance, with the bullet zipping between train carriages and donut holes? It's like shooting someone in 1U from my house. And the curved shots. I believe it is physically impossible to curve a gunshot using just a normal pistol. Incredible. Anyhow, Wanted was definitely worth the movie experience.
Get Smart = hilarious. Anne Hathaway was a brilliant candidate for Agent 99 as she really has this look as if she has had some work done to her face.

Streamyx
I friggin hate streamyx.
In addition to the shit ass tortoise-slow Internet connection they're offering, they have the tendency to crash on me. Internet was down the whole day today, which hampered my productivity. Productivity = downloading movies.
Spent quite some time with the annoyingly polite operators at TmNet who kept asking who my account owner was (sir?) and what my phone number was (sir?) for "reference" purposes. So each time i called i just spouted out my account username, my dad's name and my phone number, which seems weird, but it saved me a lot of time, and spit for the operators.
Turned out there was some problem with one of their "ports" and their technicians were resolving them efficiently so i asked them how long would it take to fix that problem and they said the maximum would be two working days (wtf!) depending on how "small" the problem was. Damn i should sue their incompetent asses off!
Anyway, i've finished downloading:
i) Run, Fat Boy, Run - But i haven't watched it yet.
ii) Vantage Point - I like the multiple point of views, but the repetitions were tedious.
iii) 21 - Sis had the DVD so i cancelled my download. 21 was fascinating. Man i've heard of card-counting but these people took it to a whole new level. aaaand, though i've never heard of her before, Kate Bosworth is one hot chick.
iv) Bee Movie - Bzzz. Found the bee-human interaction somewhat a buzz-kill. It's... bleargh.
v) 27 Dresses - Moderately entertaining at best. I never really liked romantic comedies.

New Word for Dictionary
I got this from a forwarded e-mail - check it out. Hahaha. Fucking hilarious man! :)
source: unknown
There is possible plan underway to apply to the Oxford and Webster to include a new word for their 2009 dictionary:
badawi [baa-daa-wee] (noun): To start something full of promises but ends in disappointment, failure and/or disaster.
Eg: I'm trusting you to perform this task well... don't do a badawi, ok?
Whatever I do, I will always find a way to badawised it.'
France badawied their Euro 2008 campaign. England pre-badawied theirs, while Italy were guilty of over-badawification.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA!!!!
Langkawi Day 2
After a good night sleep, Day 2 is Island Hopping Day! Wheeeee!
Are you ready? Let's go!
Are you ready? Let's go!
on our way to board the boat :)
roaring away!
Beras Basah Island
These tourists from Hong Kong were so mesmerized by the monkeys
Group Photo
The famous Tasik Dayang Bunting! From the picture you can see this side of the lake where the hill resembles the shape of a pregnant maiden lying on her back.It is rumored that the water of the lake possesses some mystical power of helping barren women to bear children. Google it up :)
Ah hah! We're there!
How contradicting! :PHow do we keep Langkawi islands clean when the instruction board is so filthy? Haha.
Langkawi's Happy Feet! Tee hee!
Another group photo. Me and Angel's standing position was intentional - the alphabet "G" were missing from both words.OUR YUMMY FOOD FOR LUNCH!
Crabs
Fried fish and fried chicken - fresh from the wok!
Vege
Bee Hoon
The fishes from our fishing session - grilled to the sweetest perfection :)))
prawns and satayszzz

Oh
Nothing beats the holidays.
Have downloaded quite a few movies during the week.
i) Bridget Jones's Diary - I used to have a VCD of this but i lent it to someone i couldn't remember and couldn't, obviously, get it back. Bridget Jones rocks. Tragic spinster. Chain-smoker. Wine-glugger. Overweight. Yes, she rocks.
ii) Drillbit Taylor - What kinda weirdo has the name "Drillbit"? Moderately entertaining. Bullying of three nerdy kids. Cruel. Hilarious. Predictable. We all know what happens to bullies, don't we?
iii) My Mom's New Boyfriend - I was looking for a little bit of amusement, and i saw this categorized under "Comedy" so i downloaded it. It turned out to be rather stupid. Minimally entertaining.
iv) The Onion Movie - This has got to be the most surprisingly movie! Released direct-to-video, it is indeed a hilarious combo of sketch and satire. Brilliant. Just brilliant. Try searching YouTube and you'll see some clips of it. Melissa Cherry and the Cock Puncher are fantastic.
v) Meet the Spartans - Ha! I've been wanting to see this. Meet the Spartans is one of those films that we watch knowing that it will be stupid so we can actually enjoy the parody. Downloaded version rocks, as it is definitely not worth it to see this in the cinema.
vi) CJ7 - One of the Chinese New Year films that i missed as i chose Kung Fu Dunk over this. I like the adorable little jello alien dog. <3
Downloaded movies aside, i did fork out some cash to see the following movies in the cinema:
vii) Superhero Movie - Stupidest movie ever. Watched it in Pavillion the other day. What i said about Meet the Spartans didn't apply here, cause i went in expecting a stupid movie but it turned out to be even worse than what i had expected. Urgh geeez. They were trying to force in some of the humour... and argh! Waste of my money.
viii) IncrediHulk - 1 word. Incredible. :D Edward Norton looks like some sorta mechanic in the poster. Anyway Hulk rocked. I like his dark green colour instead of that lime jell-o green he had in the previous Ang Lee's Hulk. And his height was decent enough, not big like a freakin building. I read that Hulk has some really hardcore insane super powers, able to jump across continents and so on but that's just ridiculous to put in a movie.
Currently downloading:
ix) Run, Fat Boy, Run
x) 21
xi) Vantage Point
xii) 27 Dresses (argh XD)
