Something to While Time Away~

I wanted to post some atrocious piano playing, but after a week of practice, I still flunked during recording and I realised that my phone microphone screwed all my A notes T__T So here's a (semi) old drawing to give this blog some semblance of life

Umm.. *goes back to doing something that's supposed to be productive*

What is There to Talk About?

As I sit here with 2 Left4Dead games under my belt, chicken soup swirling in my stomach and May'n's powerful punk rock songs blasting in my ear, I silently contemplate.. What significant even has happened in my life? I love to blog but it feels pointless to me if all I do is recite the mundane stuff I go through daily *ahemahem* Nothing has happened in these past few months that have made me sit down and do some fake philosophical thinking. I've had fun, but it is irrelevant to share with my few blog readers. Weird things have happened, but I'm sure everyone's sick of that Kashmir man story already XD;; Some events have made me piss mad, but I'm not exactly in the mood to talk about people who take friends for granted yet again.

..Uh, what's the purpose of this blog again?? *STONED*

Violation of Privacy

First, my roommate simply opens the door when I'm changing. When I'm finally in my own bedroom, my brother barges in immediately after a knock.

Tell me, where the hell can I call my own space?

Kyle Landry

And I never thought I'd fall in love with a REAL guy.

Sorry loupo, I'm in love. Oh God. Or maybe not. Maybe I hate his guts for being to play like a divine being which looks so impossible to me LOL

Okay, a more familiar tune to most of my readers..

I swear, he.is.God. *_* It would be a dream come true for an amateur pianist like me to reach anywhere near his level! I'm going to go listen to his self-compositions.. Seems like he's releasing a CD soon =)

Ignorance

"Kinda sick of the peace and quiet..Hope there's an earthquake to rock up my life"

What a lovely and insightful MSN display message to wake up to. You know, I'll be praying that your wish really comes true, that an earthquake will happen specifically under your feet and may the resulting crack in the ground send you down to the depths of hell. I'm sure the Indonesian friends you bragged about will be very pleased too.

Realisation

I noticed that all the drawings I posted here are of girls standing/doing nothing while smiling creepily. I swear I ain't gonna post anything until I come up with a more "exciting" drawing LOL

Marker Practice FAIL

Done on a whim. I feel so bad that my markers have such a crappy owner, I'm sure Copic's gonna come and sue me for using their markers so horribly LOL!

More Brush Penz

The scanner killed the black, nuff said LOL For a childhood friend I'm meeting on Wednesday, can't wait to reconnect with ehr after so long =) I need to prepare another one for my lil' sis though.. Augh XD

Oh yeah, screw you Ben LOL! When I wanted to draw this just now, I had listened to too much Lux Aeterna and had turbulent emo stuff in my head, almost wanted to draw some bloody gory pic, very inappropriate for a "Oh I haven't seen you for some time! Here's a drawing specially for you" LOL Had to blast a good amount of anime pop to get me in the mood for cute stuff XD

A Clarification on the Previous Post

Well, due to a comment and my own experimentation, I have discovered that the "selection process" for the offending photo was completely "random", at least that's what I think because the application annoyed me so much I dumped it before trying to see whether I could modify anything. It would seem unfounded to mete out such harsh treatment to C if she really had no power over the photo labels, but you still ain't gonna see me apologise because:

1. That was a nice let out after the many years I had to endure her stupidity and arrogance. The friends around me would tell you that after the incident, I was in an extremely good mood for days because I finally got to give the deserving bitch a nice ass-whooping.
2. She CHOSE to let the photo be published. The publishing was automatic, but don't tell me she didn't VIEW it after it was posted up, with all the extremely funny tags, yet she allowed it to stay published for all to see and laugh at. Now THAT she could have controlled and but she didn't give a damn.

Okay you can call me stubborn or any degratory term you would like (except.. fat, I guess LOL!!). As I stated before, I will not apologise if I do not feel guilty at all, and oh, a big toothy smile still appears on my face whenever I remember all the things that happen. Guilt, anyone?

Cheers~!

The Bane of Photo-Tagging

Sigh.. I KNEW I had this coming.. Screw social networking LOL!

Well, as some of you may already know, I recently activated a Facebook account of my own, after much persuasion and temptation. I was already greedily eyeing the addictive game applications on it but most of my close friends would know that one reason holding me back was the option of photo-tagging. I could wax lyrical about how I believe my online friends should judge me by my personality alone and not looks, but the truth is that I'm horribly camera shy due to my horrific proportions and spine-chilling face. It's only pretty natural that I'm deathly afraid of my photos being leaked online.

Well, I obviously caved in after much prodding, as evidenced by the existence of my Facebook account. Things were going on pretty damn well at first, with 4 games immediately added to my Bookmarks and about 95 friends added. Well, of course, soon enough, disaster struck.

It wasn't really a photo of me actually. You see, I know this girl, C, from high school. I've never liked her for one second due to her incessant whining, bitching and pushing her friends around. It was pretty agonising to sit in close proximity to her whenever I had recess, but ah well, deal with it. I got overly pissed at her one day for treating her friends, MY friends, like shit, and I was watering school plants, so I "accidentally" sprayed some water at her. I swear it was just for a split second, meaning she wasn't soaking wet, yet knowing her, she burst into a bucket of tears. Err, so much for your "hard" attitude. Of course, when she regained her composure, she cursed at me. While I was still watering plants. Of course, I "accidentally" hosed her again 8D Since school ended about 2 years ago, I gave her the benefit of doubt and hoped that she'd improved her mannerisms by then.

Well, there's this new application that compiles your friend's photos and you can input characteristics of said friends for all to see. I've seen many friends playing around with it, and even got labelled "bad" by one LOL Well, C decided to join the crowd and post her own compilation of friends, with me labelled as "fat".

Ahem.

Most people will know that attempts to insult my weight will be met with violent tendencies. Well, this is probably because the only ones who joke around like that are already inconsiderate assholes to begin with. I accept that I'm morbidly overweight but I understand that normal, perfectly-mannered people will not touch on the issue as a joke. In this case, the insult, fuelled with my previous boiling dislike for her and my sadism dictated only one course of action.

To call her up and mutter a string of expletives at her.

Holy lord, it was the most exhilarating thing that happened to me in a while! I can safely said that I did not raise my voice, nah, that's too primitive for me, so she received the "cold, sarcastic bitch" routine. How does "Good evening, you fucking fatass of a bitch. How's your infinitely fucked up life?" sound to you? Now, I know this is pretty harsh treatment, VERY horrible, hurting, degrading, you name it. But you see, I;m a VERY rational person, and I weighed her previous bitchiness, degratory attitude and complete lack of respect carefully before deciding to make the call. She sounded surprised and oblivious, then ended the call a slight bit prematurely.

Of course, my hunger for profanity and sadism fulfilled, I went back to tending to Cafe Idiotica in Restaurant City. As I was directing a friend to clean up the toilets, my handphone suddenly blared out the opening song to Doraemon.

Wow, a call from her!!

The voice at the other end of the line was that of a young adult male. Apparently he is the sniveling piece of dirt's brother and called to request for an apology from me. Oh horrors!! I was so frightened I immediately apologised on my knees. NOT. I do not perform an action with the intention to apologise afterwards. I thought deeply about the reasons and consequences before making that phone call. I decided that the disgusting rat deserved a good telling off after telling the whole itnernet that she regarded me as obese. If she were another human being, I would've politely sent a request for her to remove the picture, but not this particular asshole. You're not about to make me apologise when I do not feel one ounce of regret in me.

So the aimless conversation continued, with the staple "You took it too seriously, everyone else was laughing at the pictures" and so on. Hello, different people have different perceptions, Mr Brother. If you call a bulimic "fat" as a joke, you'd certainly be sending the person to his or her grave. You're pretty lucky I didn't throw myself of a random cliff and instead educated your ignorant sister on some manners. Jokes have always been an ambiguous issue and it is safest to joke only when you understand the other person's circumstances and views. I make jokes while fully accepting responsibility if they backfire, but looks like the retard didn't know that some people do not like degratory jokes. "It was just for fun!" The definition of fun varies everywhere. In your place, fun is discriminating people's appearances while in my place, fun is giving deserving bitches a good slap on the cheeks. I can't remember when the talk ended, but it sure did not end with a word of "sorry" from my mouth.

As usual, this writer is infected with verbal diarrhea. Thank you for reading this "cheong hei/long-winded" post. Now I'm going to get comments about how excessively brutal and sensitive I am but as you might guess from what I wrote, I don't really give a damn :D

Cheers!

Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box

The most badass tea-lovin' British dude in Nintendo XD

Typing this post mere hours after finishing the game and while listening to it's mellow soundtrack is... well, hopefully gonna lift me from this slump .__.

..Well, I bet none of my blog readers play DS games LOL So this is what you'd call "SS", "Syiok Sendiri" or in English terms, "Jacking off to oneself" LOL As an aspiring linguist, I could go on about the complexities of global languages and how one word can never be perfectly translated into another language as in the case above where "syiok" does not literally mean "masturbation", but I digress LOL

Now, Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box (DB) is the 2nd game in the Professor Layton puzzle games series, 1st being Professor Layton and the Curious Village (CS). Well, I can't say whether DB has been better than CS (when sequels abound you're always gonna compare it to the initial one LOL) but it's been one hell of a ride. I mean, the first game was about family inheritance and fraternal love, not some delusional hot vampire love story LOL! Okay that's a big perversion of the 2nd game's plot, but I like to call it that XD

I was genuinely shocked by the 1st's plot twists, but I could read what was coming in DB from a mile away. Still, emotionally, it took a bigger toll on me >_O Was it because crazy aged vampire Anton was oh-so-fraggin' hot? ...No, I must stay loyal to... British gentlemanly... tea-loving... Professor Layton... the pedophile LOL! I always loved Layton's English voice though, while Anton was.. god-awful >_O Hot in a way, but way too old for him (until he turned to his real old self where I could barely hear his voice LOL)

Some distraction in a lengthy post LOL I wouldn't be able to play teh game due to excessive laughter if Layton and Luke really looked like this XD

Why did it have such a depressing effect on me? It was essentially some wishwash story about forbidden love in the end =__=;; I mean, you have all the staple ingredients, nobility, true love, separation, "I never stopped loving you!" LOL I swear when I encountered the "I'm leaving this awful town cause I'm pregnant" scene, I hollered out with "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR PREMARITAL SEX LOLOLZ" XD Okay I'm making myself sound cheap. I swear, no matter how much cheese resides in any Layton plots, the excellent execution by Level-5 makes everything seem incredible. The cut scenes, art, music and puzzles were awesome as usual (and frustrating AGH XD) I swear, everytime I play a Layton game, the more stupid I feel for not being able to answer 99% of the puzzles LOL

SEE, I TOLD YOU THIS POST WAS SOME "I LIEK TO JACK OFF TO MYSELF CRAPPING 8D" XD If you made it through all that incomprehensible writing.. Wow o__o Anyway, if anyone wants to get a DS in the future, make sure the Layton series is in your play list. It's positively epic, I swear XD

Okay I'm off to draw some hunkin' vampire art (fine, he's really just delusional, not a real blood sucker LOL) ..Wait all my dude art look freakin' sissy... Doesn't make a difference, Anton's some noble sissy crackpot fencer anyway LOL

Wake Me Up When Assignments End..

..next Wednesday *_* God, I'll finally get a semblance of normal life back. I have no idea what the hell has gotten into me this semester, I've turned SO lazy comapred to my Foundation year (but similar to high school LOL) and it's my first time sleeping at awkward times in order to finish last minute assignments LOL I feel really horrible since I gained somewhat of a "hardworking" reputation thanks to an overly-enthusiastic friend, but I'm so not living up to it LOL Really sorry to my groupmates, especially Yao Jia, for having to put up with my lazy ass .__. I WANNA CHANGE!!

...next semester LOL

When I'm finally free of assignments, I hope to PLAY THE GUITAR MOOOOAR~ I've neglected it for over a month (just like this blog I guess LOL) and yeah, I'm sure loupo's disappointed with me ._.

WHY THE HELL AM I TYPING LIKE I'M ON CRACK?! ...I dunno. See ya!

The Window to One's Soul

When all you can do is hide.

I like the "raw" feeling my art gets when I use brush pens. Something different compared to my usual "perfectionist" drawings ;)

Some "jokes", you can never take back

Do you think that being fat and ugly is the biggest sin in the world?

Do you think all of us choose to be this way?

Do you have the self-restraint to keep your damaging opinions and sarcasm to yourself?

Do you know some scars can never heal regardless of time?

Do you not understand that I cannot even bear to look at myself in the mirror?

Do you know how it feels like never hearing anyone call you beautiful in your life?

Do you understand why you can't help falling for the only person to call you "pretty", even if it was just one picture, even if that would amount to homosexuality?

Do you know that churning feeling in a heart, when your friends call you "cute", the exact same friends who taught you that cute is "ugly but adorable"?

Do you know that no matter how much you laugh about it, joke about it, deep down inside, it's crushing to know that you'd never find a partner for life?

Do you know how it feels, when you can't remember the last time your own mother said that you're beautiful?

Do you know that we're great actors, that we can still plaster silly grins on our faces no matter what insults you throw at us?

Do you know that we have feelings, like you do, like every size-zero model does, like the 6 billion people in the world?

Infatuation

Is this what it feels like to be in love?

*EMOZ in a corner because she'd probably be skinned alive by her parents if she bought it*

Bowel Dysfunction

Since yesterday I've visited the toilet for at least 15 times. Same thing happened on Saturday, about 9 times. Instead of making my dear readers go through paragraphs describing fluid faeces, here's a very sweet yet disturbing video for you to watch:



I wish I could animate like that. LOL

The Makings of an UMNO Politician

Taken from Malaysia Today:

An old kampung imam had a teenage son, and it was getting time the boy should give some thought to choosing a profession.

Like many young men his age, the boy didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he didn't seem too concerned about it.

One day, while the boy was away at school, his father decided to try an experiment. He went into the boy's room and placed on his study table four objects.

1. The Holy Quran.
2. A fifty ringgit note.
3. A bottle of whiskey.
4. And a Playboy magazine.

"I'll just hide behind the door," the old imam said to himself. "When he comes home from school today, I'll see which object he picks up."

"If it's the holy book, he's going to be an imam like me, and what a blessing that would be!"

"If he picks up the fifty ringgit note, he's going to be a businessman, and that would be okay, too."

"But if he picks up the bottle, he's going to be a no-good drunken bum, and God, what a shame that would be."

"And worst of all if he picks up that magazine he's going to be a skirt-chasing womaniser."

The old man waited anxiously, and soon heard his son's footsteps as he entered the house whistling and heading for his room.

The boy tossed his books on the bed, and as he turned to leave the room he spotted the objects on the table. With curiosity in his eye, he walked over to inspect them. Finally, he picked up the Holy Book and placed it under his arm. He picked up the fifty ringgit note and dropped into his pocket. He uncorked the bottle and took a big drink, while he admired the magazine's centerfold.

"God have mercy," the old imam disgustedly whispered. "He's going to be an UMNO politician!"

Screw you, Young

You effectively ruined my life by introducing me to a certain gadget in one of your bygone blog posts. Now my bank account has been reduced from 4 to 3 figures and I'm addicted to the damn piece of electronic damnation for the rest of my holidays. What is the offending thing, you ask? Look below:

My brand-new spanking iPod Touch 2nd Gen which I've owned for about 2 weeks already. GOD This thing is HEAVEN (other than paid apps BOOHOO) It has addictive games, online messaging (PALRINGO BEATS FRING, YOUNG :D), the most awesome portable web browser and... Oh did I forget music? LOL The touch screen is accurate and intuitive and I can say I'm in love with Apple after this *_* SCREW YOU, YOUNG!!

His March blog post exposed me to the existence of the iPod Touch, what I call "An iPhone that doesn't make calls :D" (it's actually ENGRAVED at the back of mine.. LOL) Without that god forsaken blog post, I wouldn't have known nuts about the existence of it, yet he HAD to post it up. After being made giddy by stupid Maxis' continuous iPhone advertisements, I wanted a device that could do the stuff it did. Now the combination of my iPod Touch + Nokia N82 effectively kicks the iPhone's ass soundly. I can have all the great applications WHILE having a kickass camera (you wanted me to downgrade from a 5MP Xenon flash to Apple's 2MP??)

Mine's an 8GB model, the smallest capacity out there. While Young's is probably a bigger one, I HAVE THE SUPERB APPLE IN-EAR HEADPHONES WAHAHAHAHAHAHA STOCK EARBUDS SUCK, DUDE *SHOT* XD

My life is complete.

While Young's is coming to an end when I meet him.

LOL J/K

(Please excuse the messy state of my bed in the background, I was happily snoozing at 10am when DHL called me to say they were outside my house with my Apple shipment LOL)

Have you ever heard of Chuck Norris?

Well if you haven't, here's a brief introduction to Chuck Norris facts, adapted from Wikipedia XD

Chuck Norris facts are satirical factoids about martial artist and actor Chuck Norris that have become an Internet phenomenon and as a result have become widespread in popular culture. The facts are normally absurd hyperbolic claims about Norris's toughness, attitude, virility, sophistication, and masculinity. The facts typically claim that Chuck Norris is some type of tough, all-powerful superbeing. The Chuck Norris facts have spread around the world, leading not only to translated versions, but also spawning localized versions mentioning country-specific advertisements and other Internet phenomena. Allusions are also sometimes made to his use of roundhouse kicks to perform seemingly any task, his large amount of body hair with specific regard to his beard, and his role in the action television series Walker, Texas Ranger.

I seriously enjoy reading some of these absurd facts (maybe cause I'm weird LOL) so I felt like sharing some of my favourites with my readers XD

1. There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of animals Chuck Norris allows to live.

2. The original draft of The Lord of the Rings featured Chuck Norris instead of Frodo Baggins. It was only 5 pages long, as Chuck roundhouse-kicked Sauron’s ass halfway through the first chapter.

3. Newton's Third Law is wrong: Although it states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, there is no force equal in reaction to a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick.

4. There are no races, only countries of people Chuck Norris has beaten to different shades of black and blue.

5. Police label anyone attacking Chuck Norris as a Code 45-11.... a suicide.

6. Chuck Norris doesn't churn butter. He roundhouse kicks the cows and the butter comes straight out.

7. A Handicapped parking sign does not signify that this spot is for handicapped people. It is actually in fact a warning, that the spot belongs to Chuck Norris and that you will be handicapped if you park there.

8. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is based on a true story: Chuck Norris once swallowed a turtle whole, and when he crapped it out, the turtle was six feet tall and had learned karate.

9. Little known medical fact: Chuck Norris invented the Caesarean section when he roundhouse-kicked his way out of his monther's womb

10. Scientists have estimated that the energy given off during the Big Bang is roughly equal to 1CNRhK (Chuck Norris Roundhouse Kick)

There are many more I'd like to share, but the post would be freaking long LOL I hope you got some laughs out of this! Or Chuck Norris will roundhouse kick you >D LOL *LAME* If you want to read more, search it up! There are thousands of Chuck Norris facts floating around the internet LOL

A Peek Into One of My Hobbies

..Specifically, the act of drawing anime characters :D

If you read my previous post, you'd realize I'm an artist, and a picky one at that LOL Since Young told me to post some of my works here, well, I thought I could talk a bit about the things I use to draw too XD

This is my 2 1/2 months old Wacom Intuos3 6x8 graphics tablet. I've always wanted a good tablet but before this I couldn't manage my own money and only got my dad to buy me a Genius graphics tablet that is currently retired XD;; While CGing mid February I realized my ol' Genius had reached the end of its useful life and so decided to go on the market for a replacement. Wacom is the unchallenged industry leader in the graphics tablet business, so I chose it to ensure I won't be disappointed with what I buy XD The Intuos series is its mid-range graphics tablet range (low-end being Bamboo and high-end being the crazily-expensive Cintiq) and god I halved my bank account purchasing this ;_; I can say I'm one happy user though and Wacom really is in a league of it's own when compared to my previous flimsy Genius tablet. Here's the first piece of artwork I finished with it:

Well I sketched it on paper first, then scanned it and did the lineart and colouring with Adobe Photoshop CS3 XD For a brief background on the image, the girl is A-chan, a mascot I designed for the anime blog Anime Desho Desho?, which has sadly met its maker XD;; It was my first time linearting with a tablet and my Intuos did not disappoint at all :) In the first tablet image, you can actually see this artwork in progress LOL Don't stare at this too much, you'll start to see the mistakes =__=;;

Next is my set of Copic Sketch markers. Arguably the best markers to use for anime art too, god the brush function is to die for. Sadly I never got close to doing decent art with my markers, and they're currently collecting dust in a messy stack =X There are 49 markers in the picture and they didn't come in a set. I had to stand for hours at Kinokuniya Singapore and carefully choose which colours I wanted LOL Like the Intuos, getting the best in the market doesn't come cheap, as one marker costs SGD6. Times that with 49 markers and realise the beating my wallet took LOL

Oddly (maybe not considering the state of my room LOL), I can't seem to find my best marker artwork LOL It's an Organisation Chart for my Form 5 class where my classmates inexplicably voted for me to become the Head of... Er... Decoration, maybe LOL So I had to make the chart and believe me, you wouldn't have thought it was some Organisation Chart at first glance, because who draws Chinese anime females on those LMAO God my artistic sense sucks so bad, but hey, those classmates of mine voted for me and all I can do is anime art, so... You get what you paid for LMAO My friend told me some junior saw the picture before and commented that it was "impossible to be drawn by a student", which was... flattering, I guess LOL If I can find the goddamn chart I'll snap a picture and post it up XD

Well that's all I have to blog today. I have a shipment due next week so I might post some tech review or something LOL I'm also going to Thailand this weekend, so I might blog about it XD Till next time!

Hi there ^^ I was wondering if you might be able to do a few lineart requests for me? Like your Neji one. If its possible could you do Sakura Haruno, Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, Kankuro, and Kiba? I know its a lot to ask but your lineart is really awesome.

Hi there ^^ Are you stupid or something? Other people have lives to live other than randomly doing complicated drawings for complete strangers who suddenly stumbled upon your gallery and felt like it'd be awesome to annoy others to waste precious time on your pathetic ass. Want to get a good drawing for free? LEARN TO DRAW YOURSELF, ASSHOLE. You "know it's a lot to ask" and yet you do. Why? Because of the slight chance I might be as stupid as you to actually waste my time sweating over 6 drawings for some complete idiot who only knows how to put his fat ass down on his computer chair and instruct others at his own whim? Grow some balls, dude. Wait, you already have plenty of balls to actually think you can succeed in squeezing free art out of an extremely tired and pissed off university student.

Good day,
CherylHew

........At least, that's what I wanted to reply back. I won't waste my time on this asshole to give him a proper reply, but it does feel fun letting it out once in a while, the frustrations of an artist :D The useless shithead can patiently wait for his "Sakura Haruno, Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, Kankuro, and Kiba" till he dies from a degenerating neurone system disease, which he HAS to be suffering from to actually make such a stupid request.

..Yeah, I'm touchy when it comes to art. I can only draw "anime shit" as some elitists put it, but I've trained myself for EIGHT FREAKING YEARS. Every "anime shit" piece I post up can take from a day to 1 month to complete BECAUSE I HAVE NO GODDAMN TALENT. Do you think I just twirl my fingers in the air and magically a fully-CGed piece pops out ready to be shown to the world? Well I knocked off that guy above in my brain till I'm pretty satisfied, but this things even happen to me in real life. Random people I'm not even close to will stare at me minding my business, drawing, and suddenly just go "Hey draw something for me! And make sure you get my blabla right oh don't draw so fat blabla can lienart and colour blabla must be nice wor blabla" .........OI AM I INDEBTED TO YOUR PATHETIC ASS OR SOMETHING =__=;;

Sometimes if the person is marginally closer to me, I oblige and draw them something. What I get is a "Oh, finally, ar? Thank you lah," *tosses drawing I poured blood, sweat and tears over to some random folder and forgets it even exists one week later* ...One even more amazing asshole in a sense INSTRUCTED me to make a "bookmark" of her, LINEART and COLOUR it. I had nothing better to do so I agreed although regretting it later, but I keep my word whenever I can. I finished it, used my expensive Copic marker on it, bought a brush pen specially for the black parts, wasted my rollerball on it and finally finished it. With not a single word of thanks, she gingerly held up my work as if it was covered in bird poop or something, and then handed it back to me telling me to laminate it.

.....Forgive me, mother, but I have to use it now. OI SCREW OFF, YOU INCONSIDERATE ASSHOLE. I bend down to your damn will and draw for you, listening to your grouses whenever you "view the draft", tossed everything aside and finished the damn picture for you, AND YOU TELL ME TO GET INTO MY CAR, DRIVE TO A STATIONERY SHOP, PAY MONEY AND LAMINATE THE GODDAMN THING FOR YOU?! Is your brain completely socially screwed up or something? YOU DIDN'T PAY ME A SINGLE CENT, not a WORD of gratitude, and have the balls to ORDER me to DO MORE WORK on your goddamn self portrait. You're lucky I didn't just punch out your jagged ugly teeth that moment. When I quietly and steadily told her to laminate the god forsaken thing herself, she WHINED at me and ORDERED ME AGAIN. I swear I wanted to gouge her eyeballs out and fry it over charcoals while strapping her body to the rails to get run over a thousand times. After repeating to LAMINATE THE BLOODY THING YOURSELF in a slow and steady voice, she finally conceded and whined about how troublesome it is to laminate it herself. ...So to TROUBLE ME is okay while you can't get your goddamn ass to do it.

A few months ago the same inconsiderate nincompoop told me to "design a caricature of herself so she can mimic and draw it whenever she wants". ...Like I'd let your inept hands desecrate my artist pride. I never want to ever let my pencil sketch the shape of your goddamn fugly face that makes a babboon's ass look like America's Next Top Model again.

The great thing is, this person allegedly is one of my few readers. Oh I so love it when I finally tell people in their faces how they suck balls and need to throw themselves into a garbage truck to be grinded into a million pieces that would alleviate the world of their pathetic existence.

EDIT: I cleaned up this post of some... offending elements because of my morbid fear of the Censorship Board that views this page LOL I suck.

An Amazing Discovery

...Yeaaaa right LOL *runs way from those throwing rocks at her for wasting their time* XD Well it's really the score I got, but as Young said, online IQ tests are never reliable LOL I tried MENSA's online IQ test once, I never got past the 5th question I think LOL

EDIT: Now that I think of it, I probably only scored that high because I spent the last few days bulldozing Professor Layton, which is a puzzle game. Having practised with over 135 puzzles that screwed me over probably made me less subsceptible to some tricks in that test XD;;

New Blog Title

...Cause I felt like it LOL It was just... a big pain in the ass trying to think up of an anime drawing that will fit my previous blog title, anyway I found out there were about a bazillion more blogs with the same title =__=;; My new title turned out to be the name of a book, but I couldn't care less anymore LOL This new title gives me a bit more freedom in picking out drawing ideas for it, like drawing something completely SD and stupid LOL

So what do you think? :D

The Chestnut Tree

A short, sweet yet sad tale by a Korean animator. "A film about a girl revisiting her memories of her childhood spent with her mother." Got to love the fluid animation in this. Sometimes, a story is best told without words, and what a profound, bittersweet effect it has here =)

Since we're on the topic about Youtube, Susan Boyle's singing nearly crashed my laptop's speakers LOL

After 2 weeks

...I've finally finished my last assignment for Foundation, hopefully... Handing up that 15-page report on "Passionate Love and Gender" was the happiest moment of this Semester 3, since I can finally have a semblance of life come back =__=;; Seriously, writing that whole report was amusing yet frustrating and energy-draining. I never knew I could seriously write 15 pages on PASSIONATE LOVE... A topic that couldn't be more alien to me.

Well, doing that damn assignment had its merits. One, I can officially spew more bullshit about passionate love in my Social Psychology exams now, compared to my groupmates who didn't have to go through the hell of report writing, shaking their legs during these 2 weeks, but obviously ended up with less knowledge~ Lalala~ Two, I have officially attained a PhD in Crapology after achieving the feat of completing the assignment myself. Three... Well, let's say I learned some interesting things while researching for materials to discuss the seemingly bizarre results we obtained XD

The assignment topic we chose was to find out if there was a relationship between gender and the degree of passionate love experienced. We had to print out a questionnaire and hand it to Foundation students to measure their degree of passionate love. Let's say we obviously expected the girls to be more passionate, but the shocking results revealed otherwise.

...MEN are more passionate... What the HELL!? Well I seriously thought the fellas who did our survey were either 1. Experiencing a gender crisis or 2. Deliberately screwing up our research results. Well it certainly made rationalizing the results in the Discussion section more interesting XD;; But I think I did a pretty good job bullshitting out explanations in the end, twisting around biological facts and gender stereotypes for my perusal. Actually, a renowned psychologist also found out that males are more passionate during the early stages of a relationship, so that certainly helped boost the credibility of our weird results LOL

In the end, I'm just glad this ordeal is finally over, carrying the burden of 6 people on my back. It isn't actually the fault of my groupmates that I had to do the whole thing myself, since I requested to do so, but... they certainly could've shown more interest in knowing what the hell was going on with their marks. I'm also freakin' ecstatic that this will be the last time I ever become groupmates with him, because I will never permit that disgusting worm to leech on me ever again. He can dream on about riding along with my assignment for high marks in the future, because too bad for ya, now EVERYONE knows how disgusting, useless, filthy and scheming you are. Good luck advancing to degree, sucker.

Whew! Hopefully I won't suffer another bout of verbal diaorhhea the next time I post XD Thanks for reading through all that!

A 1 week hiatus

..Or should I say 2 weeks since I haven't been posting the previous week either XD;; Well I'm in a tense situation since I have 1 mid term test on Wednesday (Maths ARGH) and 1 assignment due on Friday. Let's just hope that I manage to perform well on both occassions to help secure a scholarship for my degree =__=;;

Much thanks to those who check my blog for updates, if they exist XD;;

What happens to Maths students...

I get this exact feeling whenever I attend my Maths lectures or when I stare at the tutorial questions. Why the hell do I have to learn Mathematics for Business and Social Sciences when I'm going to pursue a Bachelor of Arts (Hons.) English Language!?!?

Image credits to Potato, a great friend of mine who went through the horror of Additional Mathematics with me during high school... LOL

Tagged by Ryanne

Well, in her ever-vigilant scheme to make me blog, my beloved wife, Ryanne, has handed me my first tag on a silver platter and now I am obliged to answer to her call to divulge the deepest secrets of my life..

...What the hell's with the flowery language, I'll just get to the damn tag LOL Oh don't misunderstand, I'm probably going to enjoy this XD

Directions: Once you’ve been tagged, you’ve to write a blog or a note on Facebook with 16 random things, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end, choose 10 people to tag, listing their names & why you choose them. Don’t forget to leave them a comment (”you’re it”) and to read your blog. You can’t tag the person that tagged you. Since you can’t tag me, let me know when you’ve posted your blog/note, so I can see your weirdness. (:

1. Taking inspiration from how my wife did her tag.. Well, I have the ability to occasionally make coherent tunes on the piano. ...Fine, it just means that I can play the piano to some extent LOL I started out late at the age of 9 and managed to scrape my way till Grade 5 before I decided that the piano lesson and examination fees were outrageous and decided to quit formal lessons. I occasionally play nowadays (having 2 pianos at home LOL) but recently I haven't found a piece that would incite the "playing spirit" in me... Well, some did, but no music sheets.. Damn XD

2. Due to influence from my wife, I took up Graphology when I was 16. I own a few books on the topic and can do some simple handwriting analysis, but I can never remember enough to beat the ever-reigning Graphology queen that is Ryanne LOL

3. I have surprisingly low-profile ambitions according to some. I just want to acquire a steady job at my hometown with enough money to eat what I want, drive where I want and occasionally splurge on electronic gizmos.

4. Despite widespread belief that I am an "artistic person" who will do well in graphics, I can assure you that is not the case. I toiled all my school hours away ever since I was 11 to learn how to draw anime characters, and that is the only thing I know how to draw. Being able to draw illogically-proportioned humans alone doesn't make me a great artist so could you finally shut up about how I should take up graphics because I will screw my whole life should my career be based on that? =__=

5. Since I realize my post is becoming ridiculously long, can I shorten it to 10 facts? XD As I am going to major in English, I hold the language in high regard and do not enjoy people desecrating it.. Yes it would be nice if everyone spoke perfect English, but I do understand that I can't expect EVERYONE to be English gods so broken English is fine to me. It's just when I KNOW that a particular person can speak and write perfectly good English but chooses to write like "Dmn paiseh dat 1di0t dun knw hw 2 tulis betoi betoi ah, tiu", I get pissed. Is it really COOL to write all shorthanded bullshit with vulgarity littered all over? Please, you're only making yourself look stupid. Do the world a favour and choke yourself to death on your next meal :D

6. On the subject of things I hate.. Hypocrites, arrogance, injustice, discrimination and such. Fine, you have ten times my pocket money to splurge every week and your holier-than-thou brain is superior to mine in every way. Do you have to advertise it? Of course the hilarious thing is when I realize I'm actually better than those arrogant brats out there, but you will never see me show that. Lalala~ Oh, time for supper!

7. Back from supper and I forgot what I was doing LOL Okay.. Let's go for a weird topic. I think my sexual orientation is ambiguous LOL I believe that love is not based on gender so I'm just waiting to see what'll happen. I come from an all-girls school so I'm more used to being around girls though.

8. ...Which brings me to the fact that the first person I felt an attraction to is a girl LOL I shalt not divulge any more information other than I knew nothing would come out from those feelings so it just flew by lalala~ (this is going to scare those girls I always "sexually harass" LOL)

9. I seem like a weird eccentric person at first glance but I'm truthfully a boring person at heart. I rarely take risks and fear prosecution, I prefer "safe" over "fun" and I run out of topics for conversation pretty fast which means you'd be stuck in dead silence with me most of the time XD;;

10. Despite how careless and sloppy I seem, I actually have a strong desire to master the art of walking with high heels. ...It just seems interesting XD

Gosh this IS ridiculously long. I shall end here now that my readers know an extra 10 weird stuff about me to better ostracize me XD I tag.. anyone who wants to do this because seriously, does anyone other than my wife read this? XD

On a bright and sunny day..

Concrete pillar falls on construction site office, killing supervisor

Usually you read news of freak accidents happening, but you never expect for one to actually occur to someone you know. Today a colleague of my mother's, Uncle Ronnie met with an incident that robbed him of his life. He had worked at the company for more than 13 years, dutifully commuting from Ipoh to KL and back whenever his job required him to do so. He was a good-hearted fellow who never had a temper. Blessed with 4 children, he toiled day and night to ensure they grew up with everything they needed, even though he had to do it alone as a single parent. At 51, his retirement was just a few years ahead, but then fate had to deal a cruel blow and take away the sole parent figure of his 4 children.

One single concrete pillar, one unfortunately positioned cabin, and poof, a human life was lost today. It's surreal, I've never had anyone I know die, and my first one happened today, a normal day by any standards to me. Being the first time I'm experiencing the loss of an acquaintance, I now understand how unexpected life can be, and death does not occur like those wish-wash soap operas you see on TV where people clutch a dying man's hand in a hospital ward and scream their throats hoarse. It just.. happens, not bound by schedule and human wants. Hell I could be sitting in the lecture hall tomorrow and have the projector crash on my head (touchwood!) for all I know. Live your life to the fullest, and never forget to tell your loved ones "I love you" whenever you have the chance.

Uncle Ronnie, we will always remember you and your "lat thing!" when shit happens. Shit really happened this time but you're not with us anymore. May your soul rest in peace and your children grow up to remember what a splendid father they had.

Just as I thought of taking blogging seriously..

...I read this:

This cannot, that cannot, how to blog?

Okaaaaaaay so by posting virtually ANYTHING I can dream of myself writing, I am breaking Malaysian law and can be thrown into jail or maybe ISA to say hello to the Hindraf 5. Wow, Malaysia'd better have nice big jails since about every single blogger I can think of "infringes blogging law" one way or another.

In Malaysia, writing a comment like "Our government is corrupt" or something around that context can lead to you being charged with sedition or defamation and be hauled up by the obviously pro-government ISA law and be detained till they grow roots into their prison cells, all at the whim and fancy of the Malaysian government. I stand neutral in the midst of this political bullshit happening in my country, but without doubt I can say our ruling government is riddled with crackjobs, leeches and people with potatoes for brains (sorry potato lovers). In this supposedly "democratic country", freedom of speech is just bullshit in a country governed by "frog governments". If you want to be free to blog whatever you want, you might as well pack up your bags and apply for citizenship in Iraq, at least I haven't heard of journalists being hauled up by law for reporting true facts detrimental to the ruling government.

So what am I going to do in light of this totally ridiculous piece of dung called law? Screw it, if I go to jail, half the Malaysian population'd have to follow me. So I guess I'll just continue posting and pack my Nintendo DS with a few essentials in a duffel bag, waiting for Malaysian police to knock at my door. Prisons serve eggs, don't they?

P.S. I edited my profile. It describes me better now :D

Welcome to the procrastinator

Being bugged by my beloved wife, I have finally dragged my lazy bum to write a first post to commemorate the officiating of my... 3rd or 4th blog I believe LOL I have no freakin' idea what I'm going to post here since I let my previous blogs die off. I'm not some philosophical angel so don't expect thought-provoking posts... Instead, except rabid fangirling, political bullshitting and online shooting. That's all I can think of to make a first post. Now I shall rot off reading more Hetalia and rolling around in bed :D
