Maybe it's true like Tung Lian has said, I have been going to the movie quite often lately...

Well, but if you think it in my perspective, staying at home can be, and will always be boring!! That's why I went to watch The Mummy today, with Jason, Heng Huat and Dev. They have got a full cinema, lucky we booked early. The movie was alright, but I find it very strange that Chinese born in China over 2000 years ago actually can speak perfect English... Incredible... It's very much a fantasy story.

Jason wants me to sing Indonesian songs...haha... whatever. How about this??:

A lovely Thai song and a lovely Thai singer.

I suck in Magic...

Went to drafting today... Man! I thought I have made quite a good deck... but... things just don't always go my way.

Round 1: win 2-1 Siu

Round 2: loss 1-2 Dev

Round 3: loss 0-2 CC

Round 4: Bye

Round 5: loss 1-2 Hilmi.

See!!! My drafting skills really suck!!! Because there's only 6 players, so we didn't play a sanctioned event. But frankly, I don't really care if it's sanctioned or not. I just wanna go there and have fun. Sold some of my rares and that makes the draft cheaper..haha...

I love this card: Overbeing of Myth

I love this card too: Mutavault. Inform me if someone wishes to sell this card.

I made some modification to my Mirror Master.

Out: 2 Thoughtweft Trio, 2 Militia Pride, 2 Oversoul of Dusk.

In: 1 Plain, 3 Cloudgoat Ranger, 2 Springjack Shepherd.

Spent the last two days at home... Man! I am really bored now. Read books? I have read lots already. Surf the Net? Really getting too much of it already. Sleep? Well... not really my kinda of stuff. Eat? A good past-time, but just look at the size of my body. Lame jokes? Neh... Chess? Maybe, if I have someone to play with.

Looking forward to watching The Mummy, out on Thursday. Maybe I'll go after my AMC...

Back!!!

Aaah... finally, back to my room again!! and one day ahead of schedule. Should have returned from Guangzhou tomorrow, but who cares when you have already finished your urusan and the weather is so DAMN hot... At noon, the temperature reaches as hot as 37-38 deg. celsius, feel like being baked in an oven. Here's some pictures:

On the ferry heading to Humen... and my oreo =p. We travelled by plane to Hong Kong, then ferry to Humen, then by car to Guangzhou... Long trip.

Guangzhou at night. Very colourful.

Guangzhou under daylight. The 2nd picture is not only a street full of modern shops but also, under the ground, ancient tracks and roads dating back to the Ming and Sung Dynasty (about AD 200- 1500)

The art of tea drinking...

The art of eating...

The art of searching for food...

Long Story...

Yay! Went to watch Batman: The Dark Knight today. Damn, it took me 2.5 hours to finish the movie. And when I came out of the theatre, my whole world was a blur (just exaggerating... actually, my eyes took some time to adjust to the bright lights). Overall the movie was ok, many smashing, punching, kicking, stabbing, shooting, killing... and suspense. Rating: 4/5

This morning, I went back to my old school... CHMS!!! with a purpose. Donated two boxes full of my books to the library. Around 30 books (all in chinese...) and they are insanely heavy, considering I have to carry'em to the 3rd floor. Next time when you see a book stamped 'Wong Kuo Hong', don't forget whose book is that...haha... And there's more books with my brother. I wonder if he wants to donate them...

Off to Guangzhou tomorrow...

Imagine this scenario:

You are driving a car and it is about to rain. You drive past a bus station and see three person waiting for a bus. They are:

1. A girl/guy that you really like.
2. An old lady who look pale and sick.
3. A doctor who helped you last time when you are very sick.

You want to give them a lift as it is about to rain, but your car can only fit two person, i.e you and another person. Who will you pick?? (Answer first before scrolling down...)

My suggestion:

I will give the key to the doctor and ask him to drive the old lady. Then, I will wait for the bus with the girl/guy I like...haha....=p

Another day... Apart from attending my cousin's party, I was totally bored. People don't realize what they are doing when they are bored: haha... before I have even realized it, I was actually listening to Hapus Aku from the Indonesian band Nidji over and over for several times. Very emo but nice. Here's the song:




Hmmm...maybe one day I should sing it...

Bye Bye Hong Kong...

After 5 hectic days, I'm back in my home, in my bed, under my own blanket... Ah... it sure feels good. But I am thirsty for more adventure... that's why I am going to Guangzhou again on Wednesday. This time for 4 days to get some stuff to bring to Scotland.

Haha... I bought some licensed Beijing Olympic keychains just now, cost around BND$6 for a small keychain... that's really expensive! But the piece of shiny paper behind it is enough to increase its price by 4-5 fold... I LIKE FUWA HUANHUAN!!!

5D/4N Hong Kong/ Shenzhen

Here's some of my photos from Hong Kong and Shenzhen:

Our accomodation at Park Lane Hotel...

eat...Eat???EAT!!

on the way to Shenzhen... gained quite a lot of weight due to the FOOD!!!

Wong Tai Sin Temple, Hong Kong

Shenzhen!!! Then, we head for the shops...

Eventide Pre-release

Finally, Eventide is ALMOST out. Pre-release today. As usual, I received a bad card pool, but managed to fix a green-white deck.

Round 1: draw 1-1 with Kah Chik

Round 2: lose 0-2 to Jimmy

Round 3: win 2-0 Joker

Round 4: lose 1-2 to Hilmi

Round 5: didn't play coz have to attend my guitar class...

SO, this gives me a total of 4 pts.... only

Anyway, presenting my MVP today:

The retrace ability allows me to play this card over and over again, and all I have to do is to discard a land instead of playing it. Who cares when you already have enough lands in play?! And the promo card:

My Grandma's Birthday...

Wow! 2 grandmas having their birthdays in two consecutive days. This time it's at Emperor's Court. Food not very satisfying... the chefs think salt nowadays is a bit too cheap.

I modified my Magic deck this morning. Behold, the Mirror Master!!!!
Here's the modification:
Out: 3 Cloudgoat Ranger, 2 Oblivion Ring, 1 Mirrorweave, 1 Windbrisk Heights, 1 Plain.
In: 2 Oversoul of Dusk, 2 Thoughtweft Trio, 2 Militia's Pride, 2 Goldmeadow Harrier.
I need 2 more MUTAVAULT!!!!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Happy couple

Grandma has just turned ?? this year. Birthday dinner at Orchid Garden. All aunts, uncles and cousins present, adds up to about 30 people. Noisy as usual, especially with so many kids around (I have 13 cousins less than 12 years of age). The cake looked nice but I didn't try it because I was too full to eat anymore...(we have a buffet style dinner).

Off to Hong Kong on Monday. Doing my visa tomorrow and going to the tailor to get the MINDEF blazer done.. hopefully the tailor get the right measurement this time.

Let's share this joke...

Have any of you flown on Emirates?? It's an airline that's based in Dubai...
The weird thing is: The name kind of hinted something...

English Manage, Indian Run, Arabs Take Extra Salary... (EMIRATES).

In the case of Emirates, it seems surprisingly true...haha...

My Friday Morning.

I went to my guitar class this morning. Frankly, I am not any good in musical instruments. I think I am way better at listening to music and singing. Anyway, I kind of like Peterpan's Menghapus Jejakmu... haha .... it's simple and nice.. The chords? C D Bm Em.

I am still trying to improve my blog.. Man! I don't really what to do with this blog.. It seems so empty.

Happy Birthday Jason!

Jason just turned 18 today. Party at Seri Kemayan and he had 2 cakes... and they actually FORCED me to sing...!!! just because I was the youngest around. I suck at singing, but Jason was singing along with me and he was no better (hahaha....). After that, they played bowling and we played cards....

Journey to the Centre of Earth...

Arif, Yus, Far, Yongbo and I went to the Mall today to watch Journey to the Centre of the Earth. The movie was not bad, but feel something is lacking.
Rating: 3.5/5

There was this large Kungfu Panda (doll or statue?) outside the cineplex and Yus and Far went totally crazy about it... haha... I have to admit, they look cute...(both the panda and the girls =p).
Then off to the archade. Man! Arif totally rocks in DDR!!!! and he's good at basketball too... Too bad Jason's not with us...ooo....

How many 'F' are they

Count every ' F ' in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS... (SEE BELOW)

HOW MANY ? WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- No joke.
READ IT AGAIN ! Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 F's before you scroll down.
The reasoning behind is further down. The brain cannot process 'OF'. Incredible or what? Go back and look again!! Anyone who counts all 6 'F's' on the first go is a genius. Three is normal, four is quite rare.

Hey, I received a very interesting e-mail regarding how our brain works. Try this:
Read out loud the text inside the triangle below

More likely you will say 'A bird in the bush'. But look again, the word 'the' is repeated twice...


Here's more:


The painting below is called 'optical illusion' Can you see why?

You might see the white spaces read 'optical' but you may not see the blue landscape also shows 'illusion'...

Teach is often reflected as learn (interesting...)

You may see 'me' in brown. But when you see through 'me', you will see 'you'.

Haha... interesting yea? Till me meet again next time.

My days after MD...

It has been 3 days since I have left MD... oo... 3 days only and now I am bored like hell. That's why I created this blog. Haha... not much to write about though but I do miss my friends (Arif, Far, Yus, Jason, Bobo, Kevin...) and what's more?? No more MAGIC!!!! Haiz... guess I will have to get use to it..

Eventide pre-release this Sunday. Then off to Hong Kong on Monday... Back on Friday. Oh yea, I almost forgot, I need to do my UK visa this weekend... Still one and half month before I leave Brunei. Excited and waiting....
