Gah! The weather back here is merciless, I tell you! I couldn’t even nap longer cause the scorching hot sun is glaring directly through the windowpanes and right on my face. Hadn’t slept much over the past few days as we partied the nights away and then waking up extremely early the following mornings for the CHEAPEST breakfasts ever!
Nasi lemak with fried chicken = RM1.50
Teh O’ Ais = RM1.00
Yes, you may gorge your eyeballs now if you don’t believe that. Anyway, so I was saying that I’m currently lacking of rest and today is no exception either as dad woke me up abruptly at 9:30am because he needed someone to fetch him from Cycle & Carriage to Saujana Golf & Country Club. Wahliao, damn stress I tell you.
My body is itching all over now and I guess it won’t take long till my tanned skin starts peeling off. I came back home looking like a sore-ly red lobster who just got washed off the sea and now prepared to be skinned alive for a main course meal.
Will be off to dinner and then futsal later on tonight. Bye for now!
So here I am, back in the hustles and bustles of city life. Four days at Marang seem so short all of a sudden, that we actually put our decision to make our way back to KL on second thoughts. Despite having feeling more of exhaustion than relaxation, we had a great time and the fact that it was our very first road trip, thus making every second of the six hours drive to the north east coast all worth it.
Local neighbours with beautiful sky.
I didn’t get to snap as many pictures as expected though. Here’s some for your viewing pleasure. Will update real soon cause I’m in the urge of sniping the ass outta wicked terrorists in a game of CS at the local cybercafe with the rest. Hahahahaha, ouch. I can’t even grin cause I’ve got a really bad sunburn all over my body.
Just before I begin on rambling about my uneventful second week of holiday, here’s a last minute reminder to all your party people that DJ Scot Project is back in KL to rock your socks once again. To those who find Scot Project’s name vaguely familiar, he was the one who showered you ravers with dosages of hard trance during Recharge@R3velation back in August last year.
Do note that this is NOT a rave event as it will be happening at the newly refurbished Ruums Bar & Club (formerly known as Warp/Channel). Hehehe right, before you even think of boycotting the event just because of the past that haunts your decision, drop by at their website and take a look for yourself. Apparently, Ruums Bar & Club is under a whole new team of management and they’re here to make Zouk a run for their money.
Definitely looks tempting but unfortunately, I won’t be here as I will be off to Marang, Kuala Terengganu with three other dicks for the long-awaited road trip! How we always talked about getting one another wasted by the beach and then laughing at their hangover looks the following morning, BBQ for dinner with our very own beer marinated chicken and playing Winning Eleven on PS2 with booze… It’s gonna be fun!
Hehehe now that the trip is just days away, none of us seems to be prepared and no, we haven’t gotten anything for the upcoming trip too. I spent the whole of Tuesday watching three Korean dramas and it made my day all gloomy and depressing one. Tsk tsk, why can’t the people of kimchi-land come up with a movie that doesn’t cause viewers to tear!? Sappy koreans, I tell you!
It was a pretty spontaneous decision that I stay at home and wet my pillow with tears, considering the fact that everyone else was still busy studying or having fun with their girlfriends. Some hadn’t even woke up from sleep following the late nights due to World Cup 2006. So I sat down, put on Innocent Steps and actually got indulged into korean movies very much! Like all of a sudden, I had the sudden urge to go pick up dancing after watching the show.
From what I saw, both Jang Chae-rin (Geun-yeong Mun) and Na Young-sae (Keon-hyeong Park) seem to be real dancers as they performed/acted really well and convincingly in the movie. It all started off with an injured dancer, widely regarded as one of the bests in Korea, who was unfortunate to be caught in a foul play by his closest rival and left forgotten in the past.
Young-sae was determined in winning the next upcoming competition, thus seeking help from his manager to find a partner by importing one from Mainland China. Chae-rin, who happens to be a decoy of his real sister, had no experiences or whatsoever but that was later defied by Young-sae who relentlessly taught Chae-rin from scratch.
Innocent Steps beg to differ from the stereotypical ‘hero-saves-the-day’ kinda story plot by adding a twist of fate in it, that shows Young-sae having to confront the cruel fate that his inital partner, Chae-rin dancing with his closest rival instead. I will leave the middle part undisclosed for you to reveal by picking up a copy at the closest VCD store, and I don’t mean pirated VCD stall/peddler!
It’s Geon-yeung Mun! AHHHH! *shrieks and wave hands frantically*
I really like Innocent Step because the movie reflects on what real love is all about and how it begins. You don’t even need to kiss or hot steamy actions under the blanket to signify one’s love towards the other. But then of course, Geon-yeung Mun is a double plus to the show because she is like SO damn cute! OMG… *melts instantly* Hehehehe, okayla Keon-hyeong Park deserves a mention as well cause he’s got nice body and the fact that he can actually dance *swoons*. But everytime I see Geon-yeung, I just .. *melts once again*
Nextly, after having bit of tears wiped off while watching the credits roll, I moved on to the next one called My Tutor Friend. Unlike the previous movie, My Tutor Friend doesn’t really contain much sentimental values in it, but nonetheless an enjoyable one. Sang-woo Kwon plays a ruthless spoilt 21 year old named Ji-hoon. He comes from a wealthy family and is still struggling to graduate from high school, therefore Ji-hoon’s mom requested help from her old buddy whose daughter happens to be a, well, tutor.
Su-wan (Ha-Neul Kim) was then summoned to provide tuition lessons for Ji-hoon who practically doesn’t give a damn and goes on with his lifeless acitivities. Unfazed by the ignorance, Su-wan remains determined and focused on her job that she’s getting paid for. Though it didn’t take long for her to lose patience and confronted Ji-hoon, thus making her the first tutor in doing so whilst the rest eventually gave up.
My Tutor Friend shows us the positive sides of having a strong determination and never-say-die attitude that actually bring one benefits. Just as being shown in the movie, Su-wan decided to stay on even though Ji-hoon was nowhere to be seen, and that she was actualyl capable of changing Ji-hoon for the better. And with that, comes love as well but can they both really get on with? Will everything pay off at the end of the show? Why don’t you pick up a copy at the closest VCD store, and I don’t mean pirated VCD stall/peddler!
And last but not least, it took me much courage to actually pick up a copy My Girl & I after hearing so many stories about this movie that makes you go tearing frenzy. Starring Cha Tae-hyun and Song Hye-gyo, this might seem like an odd couple, but don’t be deceived by the clownly looks of Cha Tae-hyun! As for Song Hye-gyo, she is no stranger when it comes to sappy korean dramas, well except maybe for Full House, but still..
“Everyday is a honeymoon whenever I’m with you”
It was 1am and probably the best time for me to wet my pillow for the SECOND time in the span of 12 hours since everyone else was asleep. I braced myself and put on the DVD and began staring at the TV blankly. It all started off real slow, with the usual courting sessions and all. Su-ho (Cha Tae-hyun) was a nerdy classmate of Su-uen (Song Hye-gyo) and never did he realize that Su-uen has been watching him all the time.
There were slices of humour that blends in well, as Su-ho’s classmates go berserk knowing the fact that the guy, probably nerdiest in the whole school is going out with the most beautiful girl in the world. Su-ho’s grandpa is an undertaker and prepares funeral for the deceased ones. Hehehehe okay, I thought you might just be interested in knowing that.
So both of them really got along well and happily, until one fine day when the dark clouds shroud over the couple’s future. Su-eun collapses during their getaway trip and Su-ho finds out a horribly tragic truth. Can they still hold on to the very first love they’ve longed for? Why don’t you pick up a copy at the closest VCD store, and I don’t mean pirated VCD stall/peddler!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I didn’t mean to spoil your mood leh, and neither do I feel like spoiling everything here so you can watch it for yourself and wet your pillow as well. Hehehehe! I did, and I’m glad that I did so because that goes to show that I’m merely a human being after all.
And so that concludes the post of the day with lousy reviews of three korean dramas! I’m actually late for gym so I guess I better be off now.. Ciaos!
Doesn’t even take any effort to figure out why I’m still awake at such ungodly hour, do you? Heheheh though it might be surprising for some with the fact that I actually bother to blog in the first place. Yes yes, World Cup 2006 has finally commenced and nothing else would even matter. DO NOT FCUK AROUND especially when I’m watching the TV. The ladies at home are complaining about the guys hogging up the TV from 9:00pm till 3:00am already.
Didn’t take long for the World Cup 2006 to screw my whole biological clock up anyway. Time surely flies and already we are into the second week of the most highly anticipated sports game ever. Same goes to my holiday. Ah, such perfect timing to sit back and become a couch potato with football screenings around the clock. It’s like every man’s dream come true.
Italy vs. USA certainly was such an extraordinary match , I had no regrets sacrificing my beauty sleep for the game last night. Being a neutral spectator, I expected nothing much from both teams and boy, did they surprise me with some good football. Three red cards and four yellow cards with an bizzare own goal topped things up with a disappointing 1-1 draw at 90 minutes.
While the Americans took no pride in having nine men on the field, they obviously were delighted with the point and that leaves Group E wide open with the remaining game against Ghana, who shocked the world by trashing Czech Republic 2-0. This calls for an absolute cracking game between Czech Republic and Italy to settle for the spot in the last 16. Definitely a must-watch!
Right, and so before I bore the wits outta you people, I guess I would have to move on to something that might be much appealing than football (that gets everyone talking). And since it’s holiday, I had the leisure of going to 1Utama to catch The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift and OMG, Thierry Henry just scored a goal on the 9th minute for the Les Bleus! Hahahaha sorry, didn’t mean to get carried off by the way.
I would say that Tokyo Drift definitely is the best among the the Fast and the Furious series, and you just have got to love the petite hot beauties. Yes, the sleek black Nissan 350Z Fairlady and the prowess yellow monster Mazda Veilside RX-7. What were you thinking of?? Hehehehe and okayla, I guess the girls featured in the movie deserve to be mentioned as well. Am I the only one who thinks that Nathaline Kelley is hot or what? Daym, and and… there’s Keiko Kitagawa as well! Apparently, she acted in the japanese real-life Sailormoon series <3 !!
Story plot is questionable, as always. I mean, what else can you talk about besides running into a hot girl and getting it down and dirty with her, only to find that the main actor is messing with the badass’ chick? Actions aplenty, with pretty awesome drifting sequences that are so much better. Puts Initial D into real shame. And since then, I’ve been listening to Tokyo Drift’s OST as well. Teriyaki Boyz’ Tokyo Drift (main theme) is damn addictive lor!
Because of that, I’m got so pumped up to drive in a manual car, I actuall took my father’s 90′ Nissan AD-Resort out for a trip around Subang and boy, did it felt good! I don’t remember when was the last time I drove a manual car but everything was all good. First gear was tedious as usual but I’m getting used to it once again. Wowee!
And sorry, no pictures for now to liven up this post cause second half between France and South Korea has started already!
Go Kimchi boys!
[edit 5:05am] PARK JI-SUNG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll personally call Sir Alex Ferguson to raise your wages for that super not-so-nice-finishing equaliser !!
Yes indeed. The very much anticipated post of er, last month! Didn’t mean to delay but I just couldn’t be bothered with it and the sudden rush of assignments, hence no updates :) I won’t get into much details regarding the event but it certainly was one great night. But then of course not without having to overcome some ‘obstacles’.
Pictures aplenty, though I must apologize for I can no longer squeeze in the original videoclips recorded during the night. Youtube.com does a pretty good job, albeit the degraded quality of the videos.
On the way to Zouk and already looking drunk.
(I didn’t notice Krystal’s peace sign behind my head until I resized the pic!)
Walking to Zouk this time around.
It all started off horribly wrong when we found out that there wouldn’t be any guestlists for the night. Godskitchen events have always been most strict and patron admittance was limited. Not surprisingly, I got checked and was denied entry so I had to wait for the BIG BOSS to bring me in instead. Hahahaha cheh wah, felt so kembang for split seconds but seriously, damn malu wei!
The JUDGE and The WILLIE…
Matthew and friends!
This is what that makes clubbing outings at my current age memorable ones. Hehehehe. So anyway, we got in and immediately downed the first bottle of Black Label right before Judge Jules took over the deck from Fono. William had the opportunity to take picture with Judge Jules at top floor and got his t-shirt signed as well.
Smile! Yat, Yee, Sam!
The Judge came on at about 12:30am and already pumping hard with his solid tunes moments later. Unfazed by the lack of buildup, everyone still had a great time and Judge Jules love taking pictures of girls on podium! Bloody hell, but definitely one of the bubbliest ever looking DJ I’ve ever come across. Eddie Halliwell’s HYPER but Judge is like … happy-go-lucky kinda person. Hehehehe he’s always smiling too.
Krystal and Vicharn
The raining trio!
The night seemed too short but then towards the end of the night, I can’t recall much of what actually happened cause I was pretty much no longer sober and so I crashed over at Chin’s place for the night.
.
Chin giving all thumbs up for Judge Jules!
William and friend.
Not the most memorable night but thankful I’ve got beautiful people with beautiful music to enjoy the moment together with. Much credit goes to Vicharn, William and also the rest who were present!
And finally the semester ends, yet I don’t feel much hype in me considering the fact that I have not done well in my last assignment for Illustration. There’s this sinking feeling that is bothering me now, thinking of the worst possibilities that could ever happen and I’m so gonna cry two months from now. Ehehehe yeah you read it right, I have two freaking months of holiday to unwind and sit back while indulging self in the holiday escapade at Marang, Kuala Terengganu and Langkawi!
Booozee will get me to the place I want to be. Sorry for the lack of updates over the past couple of weeks though. It’s been a draggy semester with not much to learn and so the excessive chillings finally caught up with me at the very last hurdle. Hopefully all goes well and I’ll be off in a year time.
Speaking of which, I came up with my very own quiz to test your observation and how much you people know about me. Do take the quiz and see how you fare :) Worry not if you were to score low cause I believe that a quiz alone won’t do any justification to what you’ve gone through, with or without me. Instead, all the more reason to ask me out for yum cha and go alcohol frenzy!
BWAHAHHAAHAHAHA and right, NO CHEATING! I’m watching 0:)
I kinda figured how important the Internet is to me now cause, well, it’s like the ‘World‘. And no, I’m not trying to imitate Mawi, for he and his trademark ‘World‘ of shit can go to hell. There’s just something about Mawi that irks me. And would you believe that I can not pronounce his name properly? Apparently, my friend pointed out that I pronounce his name as Mavi instead. How can you tell? I don’t know and I don’t want to know.
Anyway, as I was saying, Internet plays such an important role in my daily life now that I can’t seem to live a day without it. I’m not sure what went wrong but I was left Internet-less throughout the entire day. And since I can finally connect to Streamyx now, I might as well just blog before things go haywire again.
Contrary to the superstitious date of yesterday (06:06:06), I for once, had the leisure of driving back home without having to think of assignments. Presentation for Design Studies today and I think I pretty much nailed it. Good day indeed. All I have to do is touch up a little of my huge ass box and then hand it in on Thursday so I guess I’d consider it done already. Just one more to go… ONE last Illustration…
I kinda lost my touch in blogging. No flowery words. No obscene pictures. No inspiration. No emo post. Nothing. I feel that my unique visit counts are slowly deteriorating and guess it won’t take long before Fractionize.net ceases existence.
