life- sized gundam

gotta TAKE A LOOK at this!

Life Size RX 78 Gundam in Tokyo

oh, how i wish that i could teleport myself to japan at this very moment

anyone reading this who’s gonna go japan but not a fan of stuffs like this, please just go and take a photo with this…

it’s cool, probably way cooler than any of the world’s tallest building

and here, are a few pics of very much smaller assembled gundams that i took recently at Sungei Wang (a shopping center in the heart of KL)

instant food

i’ll say that i like instant food, maybe not much, but i don’t mind eating it for fun or if i’m feeling a lil bit lazy

however,  i’m pretty sure that i would mind eating yucky instant food a lot, courtesy of these food i bought tonight from Tesco

i knew  it was a silly mistake to buy those two food (one which is instant rice and the other which is instant chow mein) by Tesco since i didn’t like how their instant soup tasted  but i wasn’t too bothered

un- bothered i am by what i was purchasing, so i’ve got lot of comments that’d make me look like an unmerciful critic. I am, at times, especially concerning food

back at home when me and my sis was peeling away the foil cover of the white plastic container, i was like “WTH?”

i expected the instant rice that i bought to serve some aesthetic purpose, oh boy, i was so wrong

not too confident by how it’ll taste, rather dispassionately, i poured hot water till it reached the mark in the container and crossed my arms as i waited for it to cook

my sis’s instant chow mein was ready earlier than mine, so i eagerly peeked over the  top and saw that it definitely gonna look better than mine

not disappointing me, this is how mine looked like when it was ready to be eaten

don't think it's much of a disappointment, do you?

sorry people, for the rice is not that visible in the photo

spooning it up, i still wanted to give it a try

i tasted it and ewww…i really don’t like it =(  , no offense Tesco

the rice was still in its original texture; hard and still grainy like uncooked rice mixed with water

and, it’s tasteless. Maybe to cater to health- conscious people and me still not seeing the point in eating food that don’t have taste (even if it gotta be artificial, it’s still something) but healthy

in life, we can’t have everything, It’s always one way or the other, no both. We have to make a choice

to settle the issue of not having taste, i dumped in some of the seasonings that i could  find in my house. A little of each, i still can’t make it nice enough to eat

i wonder how the real version of this tastes like

despite that, i still made myself eat at least half of this bowl’s contents because it’s my supper and i’ve got nothing else that i felt like eating

in the end (not feeling the slightest bit sad bout it, i’ll say glad),  i managed to only eat a quarter of it and the remains were disposed away

on the other hand, this is how my sis’s bowl of  noodle looked like in the end

my sis finished all of hers. WOW!

one thing though, this is what she commented on the food,  “it’s not bad, but i’m not eating it again”

not that it was a praise on her part. WTH

the real version is a gazillion times better than this. that i can assure you

seriously, in all brutal honesty, Tesco’s instant soup and their light choices range of foodstuffs are the worst instant whatever one could ask for

it’s outright mean, but yeah. That’s me =K

i can drive

yay, finally!

i’ve got my driving license this afternoon

actually, it’s late for me to be just getting it now since my 17th birthday was september last year, but i’m not minding… as long i can drive legally, haha

to be honest,  drving with auto car is really easy like playing bumper car

in the future, like fifteen years time, i’m not planning on driving auto anymore coz i’m gonna buy my own sports car

heehee…dreaming aren’t I, thinking that i could afford to buy a new sports car

-i love to dream once in a while-

male romance

romance between people of the same sex sounds pretty normal nowadays, and to me, its yeah- normal

even so, its kinda not- so- appealing when compared to romantic heterosexual relationships, not that i’m saying that being in a homosexual relationship is wrong  or should be despised by society

i’m so used to romances between people of different sexes that it made me having to take some time to get used to this

anyways, one shouldn’t cast shonen- ai/ BL  mangas and animes aside, they’re far too good for that

i’ve got a guy friend who’s always visibly irritated when god (?) save our king! somehow made its way into our conversation which was usually about anime, particularly (he hardly reads mangas)

thanks to my bucketful of newsletters from tokyopop that comes often (and when i say often, its very, very often), i came to know about vassalord and silver diamond

i’m terribly backward to know it now since i came across this newsletter that i got last year while i’m cleaning up my inbox

okay, so i’m reading vassalord now and loving every page of it; the artwork is fantastic and cyborg vampires is way too cool for even a tech geek like me

http://www.popcultureshock.com/reviews/manga-review-vassalord-vol-1/

http://manga.about.com/od/tokyopop/gr/Vassalord1.htm

the 2nd vol is already out, with charley on the cover ( visit http://www.tokyopop.com/product/2139/Vassalord/2 )

silver diamond, on the other hand is already being licensed, so those actively watching and reading stuffs online  should know what it means- i have to buy to read it nah, i’m not worrying that i’ll be wasting money buying this manga it wouldn’t be that bad; i’m confident to say that  i wouldn’t use the paper to make mecha puppets

silver diamond @ wikipedia

for now, the tokyopop version of silver diamond is out until vol 4 while the japanese version is out till vol 15

all righty, so for those loving yaoi works and is reading this post, start reading this two manga

i’ll be heading to kino this weekend to buy this manga and check out a few vampire novel titles

We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration

*grins sheepishly* my first post in 2009 for i don’t feel particularly happy in ushering the new year with  the economic crisis

sorry for the bad blogger attitude ><

ok, here we go… starting my first post of the year with none other than Barack Obama

well, i guess that it’s a good thing that  HBO did show the a special telecast of the ‘ We Are The One’ concert tonight

though it was not a live telecast, it was nevertheless a good watch

i love the choice of talents appearing on stage at the event; the songs are fantastic (maybe not the ones i usually listen to, but that doesn’t mean i shouldn’t be enjoying it)

one more thing, before i get done with this post is that i do admire Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln and Barack Obama

=K

balls of fury

if any of you people out there want a good laugh and haven’t watched this movie yet, you gotta go grab the DVD and spend two hours with a PG-13 rated sports comedy

it’ll be worth to spend that money, i swear

i’ve heard it before sometime around last year, but it didn’t occur to me as something worth watching

now i knew i’m wrong

i came across it on HBO today while browsing through the channels on Astro, searching for something actually interesting to watch; Ultraman Dyna, Dragon Ball and Mr Bean live asides

Maggie Q’s appearance was the one that caught my attention to decide on this movie

she’s beautiful =)

i’ve never actually hear the word Chinese usually use to address the whites in a movie before: Gwei Lo (Master Wong portrayed by James Hong calls Randy Daytona by Dan Fogler that)

i love the Chinese elements in it

i was utterly, utterly, utterly shocked when “The Dragon” was introduced and i saw a Chinese girl behind the opened door instead

the locals of China Town speak of her as if she was some great ping pong player and impossible to beat

fortunately, she loses but man, she was not one to accept her defeat graciously; she gave pretty lame excuses in Mandarin and even cried like some silly kid then kicks Daytona before running off in defeat

Feng, the bad guy has an flamboyant dressing sense with clothes similar to like those that Elvis Presley wore

before seeing him appear in the movie, i thought he was a Chinese from his name and seing his residence that was in such an Oriental deco, located somewhere in the jungles of Central America

geez, i realized i had some spoilers here. sorry though

it’s certainly one of the best comedy i had ever watch, in actual fact i hate comedies ever so much

not my favorite movie genre, i prefer horror and action movies

Barack Obama

yessssssssssssssssssssss

Democrat Barack Obama won the 2008 presidential election, becoming the first African-  American president

come his inauguration on January 20, 2009, he’ll be the 44th President Of America

qive me an O, O!

give me a B, B!

give me an A, M, A

go OBAMA!!!

i spent my morning keeping track of Barack Obama and Republican John McCain through widgets of the election on msnbc

it was obvious that Obama had a big probability given the blue that kept spreading throughout the map of America, while the red was exceptionally concentrated at states in the middle

but it is better to not be overconfident, isn’t it?

so i did watch as the votes of McCain upped while Obama’s remain the same but times higher

then, the moment came and Obama won!!

=D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D =D

i wonder how many more i’ve got to actually post to show my feeling of extreme happiness, i’m so very happy =)

i’m sure lots of people are cheering as well =K

congrats to Obama and Biden, you both deserve the victory

GOD BLESS PRESIDENT OBAMA AND VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN!!

those of you against Obama will change your thought of him, just wait and see…

good job to Americans that vote for Obama, you people will see change, just like what Malaysians did months ago

yeah! good day for the world!!

it’s cool to have a president that plays basketball

this year is certainly a year filled with stuffs that grabs everyone’s attention

take the Beijing Olympics, this presidential election and Malaysia’s own general election for example

one or more of these events did leave quite a mark in everyone, i’m sure of it unless you’re silly or somethin  no offense intended

awwww……man, i want THOSE BADGES BY GAP in conjunction with voting and those ‘vote for_’ tees

too bad i’m livin outside America =(

let’s look on the bright side: at least i could post buttons to my corkboard on my facebook profile

my life

You Are a Fist

Your life philosophy can be summed up as, “Life fast. Die young.” Your greatest wish is to have a life of passion and excitement. And while you don’t want to die young, you rather take risks than stay home and be afraid. You are inspired and inspiring. You live each day like it’s your last.

that’s me =K

2009 honda civic

honda civic is probably the only one sedan in my favorite cars list that consists mostly of sports cars

i love the hybrid as much as i love the normal one, maybe i do love the hybrid more for environment reasons, i guess

the worst car i can get when i grow up ( i mean after earning my own money) is a civic, nothing less

with this car as my favorite, i really can’t understand why mom prefers an accord    maybe accord seems more luxurious

back to today’s post,

so far all i’ve gotten to see is the 2009 US version, but i hope malaysia will be getting this same one too

this car is expected to hit malaysia slightly later next year, as usual…

the current eighth generation civic will receive slight modifications to the front and rear

the grille and headlamp design gets more streamlined while the underbumper air intake becomes more prominent

meanwhile, the rear gets an obvious change to the tail lamp

on the interior, there’ll be  the addition of a Bluetooth HandsFreeLink and USB interface for the entertainment system

for the coupe and the Si, the steering wheel is still the same

the engines that provide power will be the same, except for the Hybrid

the standard engine is a 140hp (104kW), 1.8 i-VTEC four-cylinder, available in either a five-speed manual or six-speed auto transmission

The Si gets the same 197hp (147kW) 2.0L i-VTEC engine and six-speed manual as in the current one
