Hehey,
Yeah, life is as busy as usual, assignments and group work and everything. Sigh, at the moment, I've got 2 courseworks thats dued, and 2 groupwork swith 2 different groups of people going along in 1 time..
For the moment, I feel like a week long break would do me good, to let me just think. Hahah, but for the moment, no time for that, work work! Need to get everything straight, and yeah, I haven't been at a 100% past few days, waking up with horrible runny and blocked nose and a rather sore and dry throat that doesn't seem to want to go away anytime soon...
I guess, this blog post is just another way for me to avoid getting to work, hahah, better stop now and do something then...
Peace out!

Hmmm...?
Hey,
Yeah I've had a really nice talk to Charity yesterday, and I really felt alot better about everything. Many thanks to you, when you read this!
Hahah!
Now that I really think of it, One thing about me, is that I really really try with all my heart to keep everyone happy. No matter how much it would hurt or trouble me. I was thinking of saying, that I really let myself get things that I want recently though, but then again, when I rethink about it, I don't actually trouble anyone in anyway, directly nor inderictly, so it doesnt go againts what I said earlier.
Hmmm, I still have to say though, time seems to be against us everytime, it would seem like you have alot of time at 1st, but you'll realise how little time you actually have.. Be it assignments, or my time in university, or the amount of daylight left for today(not that it matters, im a night person, and I hate summer). Sigh, theres just so much that needs to happen and be done in such a short period. Sigh, if only you could understand and know exactly whats happening all around us. Then we could shorten the time needed to do things and make things happen.
Time!
I need more time...
(Just googled this, oh how I wish a day would last this long instead, but with the same amount of work hours.)

Wow, its almost a month!
Hey people!
Wow, its almost been a month! time seems to fly by.. ahhh, so much work going on as well!! Been really REALLY busy recently... Loads of work its insane, and I thought 2nd year was busy...
Anyhow, I just thought I'd let myself type out a blog, just feel like expressing myself for a bit.
Hahah!
Envious
Synonyms:
- adjective: jealous, jaundiced, green-eyed, yellow, covetous
- Feeling or showing envy
Just copied those bit of the net, if your wondering, thats how im feeling... partially at least...
Now what am I envious about? I'll let you guess XD
Sigh, some things you sometimes just REALLY REALLY want, but some bit of you knows deep inside you, that you just cant have them. Be it lack of money, it being too pricey, or maybe lack of the things that you want.
Its annoying if you see it belonging to others, yet you cant have it yourself... Sometimes, your heart just screams at you to just take it, but sometimes there are just interference, something or someone stopping you, be it yourself..
Then you wonder, maybe these things just aren't for you, for example, I'd LOVE to have the superfly II mecurial vapor, but there just is no reason for me to have them.. I almost never played in proper grass here, why bother? I'd just be wasting it if i use it in the turf i normally play at..
Sigh, then again, you can't deny you really really want them..I guess you can argue that theres nothing wrong with wanting something better, we wont be human if we dont want improvement you might say.. Then again, some of these things would just hurt the people your most closest with.. Maybe wasting money that your parents want you to use for studying instead, or maybe your girlfriend/boyfriend wouldnt want you to have it..
What then?
PS: its not about the shoes...

Random ramblings of a new boot, tomorrow's match and....
Wow, its been 10 days!
Sorry for the lack of updates, I haven't really had anything interesting to blog about really. Anyhow, been busy with work and PES and football...
hahah, Loads of assignments coming up! argh! Loads of coursework to finish.... pfft... hopefully i can finish them soon... It would seem like I have to cancel my trip to the Switz this reading week!
Sigh, just the fifth week, and I feel like Im behind already... ahhh, need to get work done more efficiently, or rather, less games! hahah, I felt like I don't have a life today... Didn't feel like doing work, nor do anything else...
Tomorow! Well now, Later! I'll be going for the Man City vs Arsenal match! Woohoo! so excited... Now I support both sides, but I am a die hard Arsenal fan! hahah, so for the moment, I want Arsenal to win.. Im fine with City winning most of the times, as long as their BELOW arsenal on the league table....
On another note, I got myself some new football shoes... the older 1's soles are wearing out, so I thought I'd get a new pair... And their awesome! the 1st time i played with it my feet were hurting, but thats what happens everytime you break into a new pair of shoes... Today, they were fantastic!
The only downside for the day's session of football was the ridiculous fact, that I strained my left hamstring DURING warm up!! Like what the hell right... During warm up... I guess I exerted myself a tad too much... Ah well, So I ran alot less than i normally me do throughout the game, and surprisingly enough, I feel less 'fatigued' then usual... hahha, i guess my typical fast pace would normally tire me out, but anyhow, still scored goals, and missed some as well... pfft...
Yeah, anyhow am off, its 1.11am, not that im gonna sleep, but i reckon i might get my maths coursework done... hahah, Peace out people! And thanks for those people who do come in to check on me every once in a while!
PS: those are the new shinpads I bought as well, I thought I'd need more protection as I've been bruising my shins by kicking people recently... hahah!

A fairly random and boring update on my life...
Hey people,
Lifes been pretty boring I think, nth much happening recently.. For the moment, seeing as I dont have labs for 2 weeks, Im pretty free compared to the past 2years of my life... hahah, only like 15 hours a week? Huge difference compared to the past 2 years, but still more busier than most other courses I reckon... Anyhow, just thought I'd update with everyone with my life, for those who hardly spoke to me or only keep a tab with me through my blog...
Hahah, It's been really sunny these few days... I dont mind it every other time except the evenings... and again, my window is facing where the sun sets, exact same position as last year... It gets really warm, and add that to the lack of ventilation equals to me sweating like a pig...
I've finally got my Blackberry back up and running, so for those of you who have BB and dont already have me, either post me ur PIN, or email,msn,ym, skype or pm me on fb or whatever other way you could think of to ask me for mine...
I've been playing alot of PES recently, the new one that just came out... its awesome that you can actually play and beat people over the net these days... so theres always someone to beat whenever your tired with beating the computer...
Besides that there, isn't really much else to say except I feel im getting my football touch to be better than ever, and I can actually juggle much much more easily now... strangely enough... Still working on my left foot though..
Anyways, thats about it for this time, thanks for the read people! And thanks for those who check my blog every so often. It gives me alot more reason to blog when I know people are actually reading it, cheers!
PS:Yeah, i know the photos are out of place... at least you get to see some pictures instead of blocks of words eyh...

If only everyday were to start at 11am..
Hey,
Yeah, I typed in my facebook a day or 2 saying how I wished everyday were to start at 11am instead of 9am, I thought I should go on and write about a post about it.
So yeah, how I wished everyday would start at 11am! Man, I would be a much much more enthusiastic guy, as I'm probably awake by 10 at the least! These days im getting up at like 8-9am which is early for my standards, but if only everyday starts at 11am! ahhh, I would definitely be seen in more lectures compared to last year! I thought about it, if the 4 days we started at 11am in stead of 9am last year, I reckon I wouldn't even need to move out of fallowfield as I'd probably be awake on time.
I dunno la, maybe if that were to be the case, I'd end u getting up at 10am instead daily? who knows, any how, this semester, we only have 3 days out of 5 that starts at 9am! so yeah, thats an improvement!
Whatever the case maybe, my new resolutions are to leave my room 30mins before lectures, which would lead me to be around 5-10mins early before class.(Unlike when I was staying down in fallowfield, id be 5-10mins late if i left a half hour before class) I intend to attend all lectures and actually do them tutorials for once! haha, My thoughts are to finish them tutorials at the least, before allowing myself to play games..
Lets hope it happens then shall we!
On another note, I've once read something about how some people have a sort of "Delayed sleep phase syndrome", It's where people just cant sleep and wake up on time. However, if they were allowed to sleep and get up based on their own biological alarm clock (4am-noon for example) they wouldn't need to sleep or nap, nor feel sleepy at all every other time, and operate like every other human being. However, the chances are that only 3/2000 people are like that, so thats highly unlikely to be me.
Anyways, for the moment I've been getting up at 8.30-9 on a usual basis, but i guess i need to push that earlier abit for mondays-wednesdays, seeing as classes start at 9am.. So I might attempt to sleep at 12am sharp these days to get a proper schedule of sleeping and getting up early...
Anyways, Im gonna stop here, peace out people!

If only?
hey,
Is it just me, or is does it happen to everyone?
Sometimes you just wonder whether you've chosen the right choice, wether you've taken the right path. Sometimes, when you look at the other choices, you regret that you didn't take them.. Maybe I should have just waited a bit longer, be more patient, taken my time..
There are just so many things that could have happened differently. Sometimes, when I look at what I am currently doing, I wonder, Why AM I taking chemical engineering? I mean, maybe engineering would be some interest, but why chemical? I mean, I hate chemistry! I only got 5C in the subject in SPM. Why didn't I take Brandon's course, Geology. I find it so much more interesting, and for that matter, I got 1A in it in SPM, and I only had a month's worth of class for it cos it used to clash with my biology class in school.
When I listen to them discussing about their school stuff, all their field trips, oh man, how I'd love to go for them...
If not, why didn't I take something along the line of electrical or mechanical engineering? It would have been probably of much more interest to me...
Sometimes, I wonder, wether back in the days after SPM, I should have persisted with my family to become a pilot. My mum said I should take a degree 1st so that if I got bored flying I have something else to do. my grandmother on the other hand totally went against it completely, she would rather me do ANYTHING else but flying...
And then I go further back in time, where I wanted to become a mathematician. Like The Mathematician. I loved maths and I personally believe I am really good in it. If you ask anyone who knows me well enough in secondary school, they would almost synonimize me with maths I would think, if there were a subject that I could have been synonimized with.(Not sure wether that is an actual word though).
I guess, thinking of all these things, there was always a reason to why I didn't choose the others. And I actually now come to believe that comparing to what I feel towards my course right now, I feel that I should have went for any of them instead. Sigh, maybe I'm just feeling a bit depressed right now...
I guess, the main reason for me to come into chemical engineering was the fact that I could literally go into any other field after that as there are so many transferable skills.. Well maybe except being a doctor, then again, bio was my worst subject in SPM so doubt that matters... Sigh, maybe I'm just at fault for not really deciding what I want as a career just yet.. I mean, I've always stayed and taken the course that gives me a wide option still, that was Science stream in SPM, physical science foundation in my pre-univesity(Though life science would have given me more option, but my Bio wasnt good enough back in school) and now chemical engineering.. Sigh, whatever la, can't do anything about it now really, just havta go and end this. just another year to go, or 2...
Peace out people! thanks for reading my ramblings and thoughts! hahah! sorry if its a waste of time.

Ahh, the case of the changing time zone..
Hey people!
Yeah, am now back in Manchester.. New room, new building, new flatmates, new classes.. I've been rather busy since I got back, what with all the 'unstoraging',unpacking and arranging.. Ahhh, settling back down is alot of work, and causes alot of muscle aches... My back and arms hurt from all the heavy stuff that we carried..
So yeah, as you'd prolly expect as well, im jetlagged, Ive never slept so early nor woken up earlier(Besides the other times i've been jetlagged la).. Its 8.30am at the moment, and i woke up at like 5+..i might take a nap till 9.45 and then get ready for football..
As much as I'd love to keep on sleeping and waking up like this cos its really good for me studying, it is impossible for me to keep it that way.. soon enough, I'd be staying up gradually later and later and finally get back to the usual habit of not sleeping before 12... so yeah, but the quickest way is of course to force myself to stay up later, but half of me for once actually wants to sleep early for this year.. we'll just havta see then.. Neways, I'm gonna take that little bit of sleep left and get ready for football later..
Peace out people!

Some dreams will never turn into reality...
Hey,
Yeah, If you've read my blog a month or two ago, I have mentioned something along these lines as well, and again I feel I ought to blog about it..
So yeah, "Some dreams will never turn into reality.." Yeah, some people say nothing is impossible.. But when you really really think about it, there are loads of things that can't be done... I guess its just how things are really... All we could really do is accept these things...
Lets have a reality check, I'd love to become a professional footballer! But at my age, thats impossible. At least not to become a pro that is.. You'd havta at least have trained since you were a child with proper coaching to be a professional football player...
I've been playing football manager recently... the past two versions of 2010 and 2009, I've been managing the team Millwall from Coca Cola League 2. In the game, I'm earning a weekly wage of 3.7K pounds per week. Now after, playing for some time, I was offered to be manager of Athlético Madrid which pays me 26k every week in pounds..
It really got me thinking the amount of money real managers are really earning.. Yeah I know its not that good a think to be so money minded, but when you think of it, people like me, is it really possible to earn that money weekly?
There are plenty more cases that I could easily describe really.. but some things, no matter how much you really want them or try to get them, they just can't become yours...
Anyhow, I'm gonna be off, Tottenham vs Arsenal just started playing!
Peace out people!

Its that time again to pack and leave..
Hey people, as most of you would know, I'm heading back to Manchester soon...
(I assume people in UK knows that school is about to start, and those in KK would at least know through me mentioning it before)
So yeah, am having really mixed feelings now.. For once, I won't be heading home during christmas.. So im rather missing KK already, even though I am home at the moment, strange enough.. sigh..
Guess there just isnt any replacing home is there?
With all your friends and family who you grew up with being there, people whom you've spent a considerable amount of your life with.. Also all the food that you have back at home! Ahhh, my grandma's soto, and sliced meat cooked in soy sauce and my all time favourite fried sail fish! ahaha, just love that, tenggiri tastes good as well! Theres also the pai kut wong that you dont find in Manchester that I've loved since I was a child.. I am so gonna miss it... We also have much much much cheaper cinema tickets here in KK! can go to RM5 which is about £1.. There are soo many things that you just can't find anywhere else really.. The local fruits as well! Mangoes, durians, magosteen, langsats, and plenty more that I'd rather not think of! hahah!
(Soto- not my grandma's though, its taken from the net)
(Pai Kut Wong/Pai Kuat Wong/King Spare Ribs)
(Mangosteen/Manggis)
(Durian)
(Mangoes/Mangga)
Man I haven't ate today, starting to feel hungry... ahahha.. So yeah, as you would expect from a lover of FOOD, I've gained like 4-6kgs since I got back, and wow, those little bit of weight can really show!.... Hopefully being back in Manchester, and not being spoon fed every couple of hours, with the presence of my usual sports again, I'd get back into shape! hahah..
Oh man, theres also all the things you can actually do here, like going to kundasang, going fishing! and I can actually drive here seeing as I got a car! So yeah, I can go anywhere, and not have to walk such a distance! And I'm so gonna miss my soft bed, and pillows... Theres just so many things I'd miss home for...
(My car is red though)
Though I'd havta say, theres 2 sides of the coins almost al the time, hahah! I am really excited about going back to Manchester! If you'd read my older post, I almost couldn't have gotten back!.. Thank goodness I managed to pass my resits!
So now all I need is to got 1st class in the next sem and the one after that, and hopefully, I can apply for an MEng or perhaps MSc.. Havta see how things go I guess... Lots of things I needta do and people to convince...
Back to being excited! Can't wait to meet all my Mancunian friends! Play football, badminton and maybe even Table Tennis again! And I can't not mention the internet that is uncountably more faster!! Also I can finally get my blackberry repaired! ahhh, it costs RM500 here or £100, could have easily gotten a new phone! so yeah, thank goodness I'm paying for insurance and so I can repair the phone! Lets not forget all the football matches! ahhh, too bad I didnt realize City v Chelsea is this friday, had I realized earlier, I'd have bought the tickets some time ago! The seats that are available are way up, which are nothing compared to the 1st and 2nd tier where you can actually feel how real supporters support their clubs! And added to that, 3rd tier is literally just like watching it through tv, only much much more expensive!! Ahh, hopefully the next few matches instead then... hahah..
Anyways, I better be off now, hahah, needta go cut my hair and start packing! Don't wanna rush later, and having a hair cut in Manchester, costs a bomb compared to back home.... hahaha! seeya later guys! thanks for reading!
PS: Our Mangoes taste tonnes better than the ones found in Manchester, and as you can see, the colours are different as well!
PPS:Thanks to all the real owners of the photos!
(I assume people in UK knows that school is about to start, and those in KK would at least know through me mentioning it before)
So yeah, am having really mixed feelings now.. For once, I won't be heading home during christmas.. So im rather missing KK already, even though I am home at the moment, strange enough.. sigh..
Guess there just isnt any replacing home is there?
With all your friends and family who you grew up with being there, people whom you've spent a considerable amount of your life with.. Also all the food that you have back at home! Ahhh, my grandma's soto, and sliced meat cooked in soy sauce and my all time favourite fried sail fish! ahaha, just love that, tenggiri tastes good as well! Theres also the pai kut wong that you dont find in Manchester that I've loved since I was a child.. I am so gonna miss it... We also have much much much cheaper cinema tickets here in KK! can go to RM5 which is about £1.. There are soo many things that you just can't find anywhere else really.. The local fruits as well! Mangoes, durians, magosteen, langsats, and plenty more that I'd rather not think of! hahah!
(Soto- not my grandma's though, its taken from the net)(Pai Kut Wong/Pai Kuat Wong/King Spare Ribs)
(Mangosteen/Manggis)(Durian)
(Mangoes/Mangga)
Man I haven't ate today, starting to feel hungry... ahahha.. So yeah, as you would expect from a lover of FOOD, I've gained like 4-6kgs since I got back, and wow, those little bit of weight can really show!....

Through to 3rd Year!!
Yes!! Thank God! Praise the Lord and my dearest mother Mary!
If you're wondering whats up, I'm through to the 3rd year!! Ahhhh...
Honestly, I thought I did really badly in the thermodynamics. I didnt even manage to answer half the questions!!! Ahhh... And i needed at least 40% to get through!
All I've been doing recently was pray and hope that all goes well... Like literally pray more than I've ever prayed before! Especially to the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus.. Think of me what you will, but I am really grateful towards Her... Like seriously!
So yeah, I haven't really had the time to update my blog recently. I've been rather busy! Sorry to all those who actually do check here occasionally! and thanks if you do!
Anyways, am in Kundasang at the moment, spending a night here with family, and heading back to KK tomorow! Finally I am completely free from worry and can really look forward to entering 3rd year! woohoo!!
And again I thank You mother Mary for everything you have done for someone undeserving like me!

Football
Football!
As much as I don't look the type(At least I don't think so), I am an avid football fanatic. So what is it about football that I so dearly love? What is this 'sport' where so many men(or women) run around chasing a single ball? I do believe most of us by now, should know what football is though. If you haven't, I'd really like to know, Where in the world are you to not know what football is? The World cup just ended, and i'm sure 99% of human beings would at least take note of the competition that occurs every four years. The sport that actually unites people beyond religion and race and colour in supporting their teams.
I think that its safe to say that everyone who would actually find their way to this blog of mine would know about football.
(My fingers are freezing at the moment, air conditioning blowing straight at my hands)
So yeah, I love football! I love futsal! I love indoor football, 11 a side football. Or anything else that goes along that route. Yeah, I just love the sport.
I just love it when i manage to race past people with the ball. I love it when I play the perfect pass that literally splits the defence and produces a goal opportunity. I love it when I score! I love it how I sometimes do fantastic mind blowing touches that surprises even myself as their all instincts. At these times, I would only realize what I did after I've done them. I feel just as happy making the perfect assist as scoring the perfect goal. Even in keeper, I love it when I make fantastic saves and blocks. I feel glad whenever I manage to break up the opponents attack be it solely out of pressure, or a nice block or steal of the ball.
I also love to see people score fantastic goals and assists! I love to see people do fantastic footwork where I could only watch in awe as their probably the kind that I could only dream of doing.
Though I'd have to admit, footwork and skills aren't everything. If you watch the premier league, the majority of the players dont even do any fancy footwork and yet still gets the job done.
Ahh, I just love football! Me personally, I currently have 3 footballs of my own! two in manchester and one here. I have a pair of indoor and field shoes here in KK. I have an indoor, astroturf and outfield football shoes in Manchester. I have a number of genuine football jerseys and shorts as well.
(I actually have these two pairs of shoes)
(The black soles are for astroturf)
I am an avid Arsenal fan, though being in the city of Manchester. However, I'd have to admit and believe it is true in alot of cases, you'd tend to support one of your local clubs as well. For my case, in Manchester, I am a supporter of Manchester City. However, I always support Arsenal first! Hahah! I've always been an Arsenal fan since the Henry era. I used to love how he makes it look so easy to score all the fantastic goals that he creates.
(Thierry Henry in Arsenal)
(Man City Logo)
So yeah, back to the jerseys, I have both the home and away jerseys for man city for their last season which is 2009/10.
I also have the first and third kit jersey for The Arsenal for the last season.
I also have Fabregas Spain Jersey.
An Arsenal training top. and a pair of shorts that was meant for the Arsenal Home kit.
(Just remembered I actually have 2, another one is white, but couldn't find it on google..)
So yeah, I love football!
I have to admit though, before coming to Manchester, I wasn't a die hard fan of football. Not to the extreme at least. Before that, I was the I like playing football and occasionally watch a match or 2 of the arsenal or some other team that grand dad watches on tv. While I was in Malaysia, I never really stayed up to watch a match or had any jerseys for any team, though I was supporting Arsenal already then.
Anyways, It's kinda late, and I guess I should sign off now, hahah! Peace out people!
PS. I'm sorry if this is a waste of time for you to read, I'm just really really passionate about the sport! =)

Why can't I not procrastinate!?
Ahhh!!! Why am I wasting time again? Why can't I keep my focus on studying when I don't have anything else to do even? Ugh, its so annoying that my biggest flaw and weakness to succeeding all these while is the disability to not procrastinate!
Procrastination refers to the counterproductive deferment of actions or tasks to a later time.
Yeah, I have a big problem. I think, the biggest problem with me is my tendency to procrastinate- excessively, I must admit.
Sigh, so why do I waste time when I don't have anything else to do? Why do I still delay what needs to be done when there aren't any excuses anymore, to the point where I aimlessly surf the net for things to do, even though I don't need to, as there are things, already to be done. For my case, studying.
If only I can stay focus and not procrastinate, I'd probably be a first class student again and not be facing the problems I am facing now... Ugh, I wouldn't even need to worry about it atm, had I actually stayed completely focused for a few days, I'd prolly be doing past years by now, and be able to spend my time joyfully.. hahah!
But no! That's just not how I function unfortunately... Sigh... I know it is a massive issue that I dearly need to resolve, but I just cant! I KNOW I shouldn't do things last minute, but I STILL do! I KNOW I should get the studying over with soon, but I don't seem to make the effort to do so... Sigh, I just don't understand why do I have this tendency to waste time and procrastinate. I REALLY NEED to get rid of this problem.
There are thousands of IFs that appear in my head just thinking of the biggest IF of all. IF only I didn't procrastinate!
1. I wouldn't need to blog about this
2. I would probably be in the top few in my course(Perasan)
3. I would probably be lying in my bed able to watch a cartoon series I am watching at the moment comfortably knowing that I already completed studying for the resits.
4. I wouldn't need to do the resits at all.
5. I would not be annoyed at my brother who is really annoying me right now as I wouldn't be typing this blog in...
and so on...
Anyhow, my brother has totally threw me off the blogging mode and my brain is totally pissed and dead at the moment, hopefully I wouldn't procrastinate after this and get back to studying. (He still can't shut up, ugh!)
Peace out people!

of Juliet having her babies!
Hey people,
I know I haven't wrote in here in a few days now, to be honest there isn't much to say these days.
Nothing much has happened recently, except of course my dear Juliet having her babies! hahah, and coincidently, it resides on the same day as my cousin's birthday which we celebrated here on the same day. Yeah, Juliet gave birth on Friday 13th of August. Hahah!
Freakky enough, I just realized it was Friday the 13th! Vampire kittens! blurgh.
Anyhow, I just took photos of the little babies today! She gave birth to 4 of them, and shes such a sweet mother, though still very young I have to admit, but shes doing a wonderful job taking care of her litter!
We let Juliet out yesterday and today, and of course, lock all the other cats up in their own cages so that they wont disturb Juliet's babies. We have yet to check on how males and females there are but here are their photos!
Shes a great mother, every few minutes returning back to the litter to check up on them even though she goes around the living room today. And she would hiss at anything and anyone she deems a threat to her litter.
Ahhh, but she still acts like a kitten herself though, but not as much as Torres I'd have to say. For those of you who, don't already know about my 5 cats, here's the link to an older post all about them. =)
http://unscriptedtales.blogspot.com/2010/07/of-cats-and-kittens.html
Well, I have 6 cats actually, but I have yet to take photos of the other cat, who is a Siamese who stays in the outside of the house and kitchen area instead. He can't realy mix with the others really as he tends to get in a fight with the others if they meet.
Anyhow, now I have 10!
My family have yet to think up of names for our new kittens yet, as we are unsure how many females and males we have just yet. Will update everyone on that when we have decided.
Another thought I ought to mention is that Juliet is not yet 1 year old yet, and she is actually way to young to be a mother, and most breeders would deem a kitten/cat her age not mature enough to take care of a litter, but so far she has been a fine mother. =) What I thought would be weird is that, the next time I come back home, Juliet's babies would probably be older than Juliet is now. =/ Weird enough. I still blame the rapist!
Anyhow, that's all for now people, take care!

Why can't you just appreciate what you already have?
Why can't you just appreciate what you already have?
Why is it that by human nature, we can't be grateful with what we already have?
Sigh.. I guess it is just natural for us to want new and better things. Be it a new phone, computer or tv. Im sure noone would reject the notion of someone giving us the latest most advanced computer if it doesnt cause any trouble to anyone else. Or maybe the latest Iphone 4G for free? would you reject it if it were offered to you with no charge at all? I know I wouldn't.
The only problem t0 this is, nothing is free.
Nothing comes for free without first having to put in work and effort into it.
Lets put it this way.
If you want a new car, you have to work to get and save money before being able to afford it. However, why do you still want a new one even though when you finally got that car that you worked hard for, after using it for a year or 2?
Its mind boggling why this is the case. As much as I don't need a new laptop at the moment, I do want a new 1, even though mine is still perfectly fine.
(I''d love to have any of these two lappies)
But why is this the case?
Its annoying that, I do want a new 1, though my current 1 is perfectly fine. Can't I just be satisfied with it?
How I wish I could.

Randomness
Facebook Games?
Man some people don't seem to have a life. Its the summer break, most people will be travelling around the world or just stay at home with their families.
But a certain number of people, don't even talk to their families while at home. Internet Addiction? Thats what they call spending about a third of their day in front of the computer.
So what is it that they do? Play online games excessively, aimlessly surf the net, stalk on friends and family on facebook and alot of other stuff that need not be mentioned.
People like this suffer from depression, and anti-social(ness?). They don't go out and keep themselves locked in their own rooms, or computer rooms, or wherever their computer maybe. They don't meet people nor worry about friends. Who cares about real life friends, when you have loads of cyber friends ey. Some of these people, play role playing games to the point where that is their life. Screw eating and drinking, my player just showered and ate.
The cyber world these days really has changed humankind quite dramatically. Back when I was a child, I rarely played computer games. Just the occasional few. It was mostly tv. And even then, those were either through the old-school method of aerial tv. No such thing as Astro at the time. If not that, there would be the old school cassetes or was it called tapes? To be honest, I've never been able to tell which is which. But i'm pretty sure everyone knows what I mean.
These days, children at the age of 7 already use handphones. Kids only just learning to read are on the net chatting on all sorts of instant messaging programs. Its amazing how times have changed. I got my first handphone at the age of 14 or 15. Thats twice the age of kids these days. Science and technology is moving so quickly that it is having a big impact on human lives, though we don't notice it. All these phones and computers and internet becoming cheaper and cheaper has led to the ease of parents giving children phones and computers at such a tender age.
Sooner than you know it, we'd be flying cars. Don't be surprised if it does happen.
Ahh, my chain of thought is really weird innit?
I started of with this post thinking of saying that I'm close to being an internet addict. Or probably I already am, but got carried away into this.
Well, I have a really strange way of thinking I guess? I make links.
Thats how I describe it at least. And it also helps me remember. Linking 1 thing to another actualy helps.
Whatever, I wrote some random stuff and just deleted it. Doesn't seem to make sense.
Anyhow, I'm gonna sign off.
Hope you enjoyed the read of random stuff that goes to my brain.
Peace out!

The cyber world these days really has changed humankind quite dramatically. Back when I was a child, I rarely played computer games. Just the occasional few. It was mostly tv. And even then, those were either through the old-school method of aerial tv. No such thing as Astro at the time. If not that, there would be the old school cassetes or was it called tapes? To be honest, I've never been able to tell which is which. But i'm pretty sure everyone knows what I mean.
These days, children at the age of 7 already use handphones. Kids only just learning to read are on the net chatting on all sorts of instant messaging programs. Its amazing how times have changed. I got my first handphone at the age of 14 or 15. Thats twice the age of kids these days. Science and technology is moving so quickly that it is having a big impact on human lives, though we don't notice it. All these phones and computers and internet becoming cheaper and cheaper has led to the ease of parents giving children phones and computers at such a tender age.
Sooner than you know it, we'd be flying cars. Don't be surprised if it does happen.
Ahh, my chain of thought is really weird innit?
I started of with this post thinking of saying that I'm close to being an internet addict. Or probably I already am, but got carried away into this.
Well, I have a really strange way of thinking I guess? I make links.
Thats how I describe it at least. And it also helps me remember. Linking 1 thing to another actualy helps.
Whatever, I wrote some random stuff and just deleted it. Doesn't seem to make sense.
Anyhow, I'm gonna sign off.
Hope you enjoyed the read of random stuff that goes to my brain.
Peace out!

Ramblings
Hey people,
Im in KL right now, and will be leaving in about 36 hours. Anyhow, thought I'd just do some ramblings.
I feel like theres this path, that seems to gradually appear before me. Not sure where it will lead me, but it seems to appear though. I'm annoyed by the fact, that it is appearing, but confused as well, as it is really an option that I could take really. I mean like, all this while I thought this is the path I would take, but it seems like this other path that appears seems to be quite possible(?)

I guess I just needed to express myself abit, hahah, prolly just my brain being a tad bit tired with all the walking and skating and lack of sleep! ahhh
Later today, I'll be going to KLCC, will meet a few people hopefully! See how things go. Anyways, the next post will be of the photo of KLCC that I took while stuck in a jam a few days ago.
Peace out people!

Of fishing with Ikhwan at Mengkabung(Not sure how to spell that)
Hey people!
As said in the earlier post, will post here the tales of my time going fishing with Ikhwan.
It was last Saturday.
I had futsal in the morning from 10-12. I slept at 3.30 and woke up at 9. Went to futsal. Was quite off target. Then went back. On the way back, fetched Ikhwan.
Here the story starts, alright, now as I reached back, got my servant to fry some eggs and cut some fruits for me to eat breakfast(More like lunch). Fruits for the dessert and to offer Ikhwan.
Got the stuff ready, all the fishing gears that is.
1.Fishing rods
2.Spare fishing line
3.Some weights
4.Some swivels
5.Some hooks
Pretty much all set really. Then off to look for bait!
On the way, I saw the usual fishing store and dropped by to restock on fishing equipment(Hooks and weights(Stones i'd call it from now on) and some swivel as we needed more)
Done, all stocked up, then on to get baits, went to the small pasar*(would you call it pasar ikhwan?) got a bait that we normally used with my family. Ikan basung or basungan. or whatever you call it, but that 1.
Now all set to fishing.
Finally!
A good 20+minutes drive I think, didnt time it. Finally reach the place where we wanted to.
Now all set and got our fishing gear ready at the "boat docks?". Well there, anyhow, first thing was to set up the hooks, swivels and stones to the fishing line. Set up mine, then set up Ikhwan's.
Yay! Finally we can fish, 1st throw to show Ikhwan how to throw(whats the proper word for this?) the bait out, abit not right, as the roof in the dock was rather low and disturbing.
So I threw it again. Poof! The top half of the fishing rod flew of into the sea. I was like "Oh shit!" Ikhwan was just staring not realizing at first. then i told him the top part flew in the water. ahahahah!
So yeah, thank goodness, the swivel, stone and hook was all intake, and we could reel in the top bit.
To add to that embarassment, the dock had 4-5 people, 2-3 of them working on repairing it. Not sure wether they saw though! Hahaha!
So yeah, Ikhwan said he already pushed the top bit in to the max. I didn't check properly before showing him how to throw it so yeah, its partly my fault.
But thats not the main reason though. Apparently there was some soil and weird white and black goo that looks like smashed fly larvae and swamp soil in the hole of the main part of the rod where ur supposed to put the top part in.
So I borrowed Ikhwan my fishing rod instead while I try to properly put in the fishing rod. It took me about 45 mins to 1 hour just trying to clear the hole out properly and finally put in the rod properly! What a waste of time!
(Told my mum about this(It was her rod) and she said Jerrick(My cousin) was the one who played with it before, and saying he oked it into the soil back at home.)
So yeah, we finally got both fishing rods working. But I got annoyed though. I couldnt throw the bait far enough as the roof was really low. To add to the problem, the people were repairing the dock was hammering away so it probably scared off all the fishes. So in the end(I should have mentioned this earlier), we took the offer of Ikhwan's Mom's friend of hiring a boat to somewhere along the river/sea to a better fishing spot. So yeah, got there, under the Mengkabung bridge. One of the pillars(?). Surrounded by water like a really small island. And told the dude to come pick is up at 5. It was around 2-3 then I think. So yeah, now I was excited, as I've been wanting to hire a boat to get on here in ages. All this while we only went fishing in a more rocky area at side of the river where its much shallower with sharp and jagged rocks where our fishing hooks, swivels and stones kept getting stuck and lost. So yeah, now on this island(hahah) we were surrounded by really deep water, with very strong currents. Which is the closest I could get to deep sea fishing.( I ever caught a baracuda in the nearby shallower area i mentioned earlier.) Hahah!
(Mengkabung river)So yeah, got our baits in the river/sea and waited. While waiting, I ended up getting one of the line roll thingies to become proper fishing stuff without the rods. (Ohhh, its called a spool, just check it on google) As I lowered it down to the sea/river. I noticed that all around the 'island' was little baby fishes. Now realizing the hook was too big to hook them in. I got another spool and set it up with smaller, stone and hook so that I might be able to catch them(Net would have been so much easier).
(A spool)As I was doing this, my rod started moving. The usual action of a bite. So i dropped what I was doing and started to reel it in. First it sort of felt like it got away, so i slowed down. Then the 'fish' pulled again, so i reeled it in quickly. When I finally did, voila! nothing but bait! ahhh... we got excited and I told Ikhwan to text the dude to pick us up at 6 instead. Expecting more fishes to come as this was normaly the time all the fishes start biting when my family goes fishing here.
Then I got back to setting up the spool and lowered it slowly to the baby fishes.
To my surprise! They completely ignored the bait. Completely unlike the usual way where they all start fighting over it!
Now I thought there was something fishy going on(funny enough~!) From here till 6 o clock, there wasn't actually anymore action happening!
Seriously nothing!
Before 6, ikhwan ended up making a whole fish as a bait. ahaha!
At 6 the dude with the boat came, and Ikhwan reeled in his bait. The dude thought he caught it! and was saying "Wow! You caught a big fish!" In Malay that is. I was like, oh its the bait actually.
Now, we got back in the boat, packed everything up(First time fishing without catching a single fish for my part) Back to where the dock was. Ikhwan's Mum's friend gave us some pisang goreng and some tea to drink. We headed back home.
Few hours later, Ikhwan texted me. Well maybe not a few, prolly just and hour plus later. yeah, Ikhwan texted me saying these exact words.
"...btw, the fish we bought was temenung..hahaha.. no wonder.lol"
Now theres the reason why!! it wasnt ikan basung!! temenung unlike the basung, had much lesser "smell" in the water and thus, fishes dont attract to them(Not even the baby fishes which was a surprise)
So yeah, the lesson of the story is, next time you go fishing, make sure you got the right bait!

Of things I do when I'm bored
Hey people!
Bored at the moment and just thought of writing things about what I do when I'm bored! hahah!
Now firstly, the main factor of what I would do would definitely depend on the time and and place I get bored. I'm sure this would be the case for everyone else right? But I guess most of the things I would do is mostly around my computer! Its sort of like my best friend? ahahahha Thats just sad! Anyhow lets move on!
Now firstly, let me write about things I could do while back at home, like now.
Firstly, as the case right now,
1. I start writing a blog! funny enough, but not all the time I could figure out anything interesting to blog about. Most of the time I'd be braindead apparently.(Based on the last few posts?) Anyhow, now is 3.15 pm local time, and i woke up at 1 today, so my brain is sort of firing on all cylinders(Though this post might still end up boring... pfft..) So yeah, this 1 would depend on ideas running in my head anndd my brain actually working!Secondly,
2. I would play facebook games! I guess at the moment I just don't wanna continue on my other more distractive games such Left 4 Dead, Football Manager, or Pes or Hon or......... The list goes on for quite abit, hahah! So yeah, Facebook games that are rather boring,(I must really be bored to play them though, hahah) such as My Empire, Happy Aquarium(Seriously, must really have been bored) and Zynga Poker. However, I guess the 1st 2 games are just solely because I want to chase my brother and my mum and their respective games!*While I added the photos, I realize I play quite a variety of other games as well as you can see in the photo...
Thirdly,
3.I would go on to play some Football, Table Tennis or Basketball(Well these are the sports I could actually do at home so yeah). I'd normally play with my sis as my brother is lazy idiot with us.(He just came in saying its his 1 week anniversary from the 2nd most embarassing thing in his life(Check and earlier post if you haven't read on that)) If their not around, I normally just play around with the football, be it training my left foot, or just fooling around with abit of footwork that i never actually do when I really do play with the other guys.
*The ball is my sister's. Mine is somewhere around the house, and I'm too lazy to find it.
Fourth,
4. I would maybe do some rubiks cube. This would be the case if im bored and saw my cube lying around, I just recorded a video of me doing it under 50secs. I normally average around40-50 seconds but I tend to get nervous when people are watching, so I normally tell them around 1 minute, hahah! neways, have a look!
Fifth,
5. I'd watch tv! now, I normally prefer to watch sports, or some AXN, or some cartoons if my sis, or lil cousin is watching. But I don't normally watch tvs these days, as I'm not used to watching them as often anymore. This is the case ever since, I went to UM for my foundation and can rarely watch tv there. Normally what I'd normally do is download a movie or some episodes of a series and watch them on my lappie. I watch episodes like House, Big Bang theory, or some anime, like Bleach.
Sixth,
6. I'd prolly read some Arsenal News or some Manga. But that would depends on the availability of new updates and so forth.
Seventh,7. I play my ore addictive games! (While I mentioned my more addictive games before, I forgot to type it right after and yeah, and remembered now.)
I just realize, that most of these things, I'll do in Manchester anyway, but take some off, like playing sports with my sister, which is obviously impossible while i'm there. hahah!Neways, My brain has reached a dead end apparently, can't really think of anything else to write about. hahah!
Hope you guys like find this blog interesting, and for those of you who run out of things to do and haven't tried some of the things above, go try it!
Anyways, I'm gonna go off to study! Peace Out people!
