Good news, bad news...

I have some good news and some bad news.

Firstly, a few weeks ago, I accidentally lost my V3X after I found out that my pants had a hole in the pocket! I had that phone for nearly 2 years and although it was getting worn out, I was getting used to it. It had some sentimental feelings as it has been with me through good times, bad times, hot weather, cold weather, sweat, dust, and grime. Sometimes I really miss it. Anyway that's the bad news.

The good news is that my old contacts weren't together with the phone. I was lucky as I was using the new UK sim card and the 'important' contacts were in my Maxis sim card. Thank goodness. Anywayz I got a new UK sim card... and that's not all. muahahaha

I got myself a new phone and I'm damn well proud of it because its my first ever mobile phone that I have had in all my life! As some of you readers may know, that all my previous phones were 'hand-me-down' phones so it gave me no choice of getting my own at that time because... well... I didn't wanna spend a big chunk of my money on new hand phones. :P

Anyway... to the main news. My new phone is the...(*drumming*)... Motorola RAZR V8!!!

The physical body of the V8.

The clamshell phone is extremely thin and light. With the weight of 117g. Its damn light for me. Not only that its thin enough to be placed in my pocket without bulging out like my other... side of the pocket which my wallet is in. :)

*Muacks*

The phone's new Linux OS software is way faster and efficient then the old Motorola's software although it tends to freeze sometimes when I'm multi-tasking (even when Motorola claims that it is using a faster processor) Anyway, the phone doesn't have any memory card slot although it does have a built-in 512mb memory storage. It doesn't bother me much as I hardly place much pictures nor music with it.

2 inches wide touchscreen, my friends. Bloody awesome.

As you can see from the pictures as well, the phone has a damn big external screen. That screen is 2 inches wide which makes it the biggest in the market currently. Not only that, its a TOUCHSCREEN. You can view your messages and manage music without even flipping open the lid. 'Talking' about viewing the messages, did you know this phone can read my messages aloud? How cool is that! Damn! Its damn cool. Even its name is damn cool. V8. Reminds me of a V8 engine roaring now. Awh. The power, beauty, and the elegance. I'm gonna be damn happy for a few months knowing I have something new to play with. MUAHAHAHA!!!

Look at that... I can't stop smiling now!

PS: Notice anything it the pic? :D

The World...

I was bored going through my assignments so I decided to post something up to keep my mind fresh. Couldn't t crank anything from my over-loading mind so I took something my old buddy wrote. What he wrote amused me but realizing that it was the truth of the current culture of the world. This is what he wrote...

'The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers,

Wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints.

We spend more, but have less,

We buy more but enjoy less.

We have bigger houses and smaller families,

More conveniences, but less time.

We have more degrees but less sense,

More knowledge, but less judgment,

More experts,yet more problems,

More medicine,but less wellness.'

Well, I believe that life has gotten somewhat complicated but to my friends out there...

ENJOY LIFE!

Daylight Bike Robber!

Just a few moments ago, my friend, Kai Chin came to my house to collect some stuff. When he came in I didn't realize he had a bike. He left it out in like what.... 5 minutes?

WTF.

Most of the locals here are nice. In an event where someone dropped something (ie a wallet or something valuable), most will return it. Even by mail or dropping by your house even if they don't know you. That was my experience when I lost my bus pass.

BUT, this time wow... no words to say... total shock.... just like that a £40 bike is gone. Pity Kai Chin. That a-hole who stole his bike probably had no money to get back to their little tiny hut in Timbaktu.

Malaysian Night Ball

All this rants and I'm beginning to sound like a girl! Damn, that shit is killing me! Its time for me to post some testosterone into this blog.

A couple of weeks ago, I attended a Malaysian Ball Night held in my uni by senior Malaysian students. Actually it was a last minute decision to attend the ball. I figured that hopefully I'd find some buddys who came to Newcastle but didn't know of so I went. For the ball, I wanted to look matured, cool and stylish. Sorta James Bondish-style (sounds kinda weird, doesn't it?) So I bought a black designer shirt and wore it with err... pants? Not forgetting my underwear. Anyway I looked cool, stylish and excellent..... Ok Ok I didn't look THAT cool. Wasn't so stylish but was still excellent (Hey, I was one of the good-looking guys in the ball). Anyway I attended to the ball with a couple of my house mates, Jessie and JingWei a.k.a JW, and other friends. To make a note, Jessie was specially attractive that night with her cheongsam. Oh I wish I never had dreams. hehe. =D

Did I mention Jessie was specially attractive?

Anyway after we entered the ball, it was packed with so many people that I didn't believe that all of them were Malaysians. and I was right. The place was packed with Hongkies, Indonesians and others but there were only a few 'guai los'. Sucky when we are living in a foreign country and no locals came along to join. HOWEVER, there was loads of hot, salty, spicy, steaming... girls (did I mention that there was a buffet for the ball too?) that I got no time to even snap photos or even pay attention to what was happening in the ball. (Sorry B, I'm a guy. Its in our DNA to 'salivate' for the opposing sex. =P)

After all the 'salivating' and some chit-chatting, we took our seats and the ball started. We had our dinner in the ball buffet-style (Lame, I know) eating so-called 'Malaysian' food. Anyway that wasn't the only thing. Both the MCs on the stage were a laughing joke. What I mean by a 'laughing joke' is that they were so L-A-M-E, that I yawned. Half of the time that they were announcing the events, no one bothered.... until the lucky draw came on. ROFL.

After all the babbling, the most exciting part of the ball started. It was the traditional dance of the three main races in Malaysia. The Chinese, Indian, Malay dance. I personally call it the Ma-In-Nese (sounds awfully similar like a sauce...). Anyway the dancers should be applauded and be encored as they were beaaauuuutiful. Both the dance and the dancers. Absolutely stunning. Really. We recorded the video down but that would be another time as its kinda 'inconvenient' for me now.

After the dance, a couple more of the lame MCs announcements, some light drinking and chit-chatting again, and the ball was over. BUT, it wasn't over for us. Not just yet. We decided to join the crowd into heading to a nightclub where an extra event was held. Hot girls, alcohol, and good music. What the hell were we waiting for! GO GO GO!

We headed to the club called Blu Bambu which is a hotspot for asians like us in Newcastle. Here clubbing is a whole different level from Malaysia's nightlife albeit the latter is way more fun. Smoking is banned indoors and that includes nightclubs, pubs etc. Nuff said. As usual, we entered the club, drank, get slightly (aroused, excited, high, whatever you wanna call it), and started to mingle. The same hot, spicy, salty, steaming girls were there too but were hogged by a bunch of guys like a pack of wolves so I decided to be the 'Lion' posing around the area (I stood in one place, never moving).

Then Leong a.k.a. J.Loh and See Tho a.k.a. Loong Kor and Jesmine arrived. We started dancing getting to know some girls, meeting familiar faces and so forth. You know how clubbing is. After that, we headed back home. That wraps up the Malaysian Ball Night for me. Btw we managed to snap some pics.

Wasn't I cool or what! hahaha

Jessie, main girl.


Heh. J.Loh's 'co-worker'. She a girl working with him at a restaurant.

Well, I think I injected some testosterone into myself. Look forward to more of it soon! Till then!

Over and OUT!

The Omega Man

Obviously for this few months, I rarely post up new topics in the blog. This is because that I have no motivation at all to do it. It is also obvious that my few previous posts have been about me ranting and ranting all night long. Well there is a reason and hopefully this would be the stop of my rants.

Life in Newcastle now is not as what it seems. People can say I am lucky and should be happy but sometimes I feel it another way around. I am lucky in a sense that I am able to experience new and never seen before things. Things like experiencing the 4 seasons of the year, different culture and heh the exchange rate =P. There is more but it would never replace or cover what I'm feeling rite now. I feel bored. I feel alone. I feel that I'm becoming Will Smith in 'I Am Legend'.

In 'I Am Legend', Will Smith acted as a government scientist who discovered a threatening virus outbreak. He was immune thus allowing him to live. He decided to stay in New York and try to create an anti-virus to save humanity. For 3 years he survived. Alone. Everyday he lived in fear. He talked to his dog and put up some mannequins to keep himself sane. After his dog died, he went berserk and tried to sacrifice his own life. He ended up being beaten by some 'evolved humans' but saved by a woman and a boy. When he woke up, he saw the woman and the boy having their breakfast. After all this years of not communicating with other humans, he didn't know how to react to them. The woman says something he dislikes and SMASH, he shows his anger and his bitterness by shoving his plate, scaring both the woman and the boy.

The point of me telling of this story is that I feel the same way as he does. There are humans around me but its rare that I communicate with them. Those humans could be those 'evolved humans' who only can live in the darkness. Couped within themselves and I as Will Smith is becoming like him but to a certain extent. I feel that my communication with humans are not as good anymore and it isn't appealing to the other 'new' humans around.

The main point is that I feel isolated. I feel unneeded. I feel that I am useless. Just another 'human'. I just don't want to be treated and feel that way. I don't know about others but personally I hate it. I am a good friend. I can tell you that with confidence because I know who I am. I can share, laugh, tolerate and be patient but that we all know has a limit. My philosophy in my life is simple. The way you treat me is the way you'll be treated. Its fair, its balanced, and simple.

To keep things short, some caring wouldn't hurt a soul.

Under pressure

There is this song that I've been listening for quite sometime and I decided to share it. Its about being in pressure. About what culture has been today.

Pressure
Pushing down on me
Pressing down on you
No man ask for
Under pressure
That burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets

It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming "let me out"
Pray tomorrow
Gets me higher
Pressure on people
People on streets

It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming "let me out"
Pray tomorrow
Gets me higher
Pressure on people
People on streets

Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why, why, WHY!

Love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love, give love, give love
Give love, give love, give love, give love, give love

Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure

*Lyrics by Queen - Under pressure

GO! GO! GO!

Hardwork
Eloquence
Literacy
Patience.

This is what I require most at this moment. My dissertation and assignment due dates are coming very soon. Just another 2 months and I'll have my degree. I can do it!

Clement FTW!

P.S. : Note the capitals XD I need that too!
