    My precious x 2

    So! Hello to whoever actually reads this dusty ol' blog! You can clearly see how long ago I made my last entry. Ah well, busy year and so forth. I'll probably talk more about my past year in the next ( fingers crossed ) entry but first I must introduce my 2 precious acquisitions in the past year.

    First up.. the magnificent,  beautiful, sleek, glossy jet black.. PS3! Mmmm.. mouth-watering no? Well maybe not, since the pictures were not taken properly really. Got this near the end of 2007, just before my finals. Smart move huh? Haha. Well it was worth it!

    Coupled with the new Panasonic 42'' Plasma flat screen tv my dad recently purchased... ah... lovely combo indeed. I haven't had time to spent AS much time with it as I would have liked, but hey, I got time. During the weekends....when I'm not working.. heheh.

    Love the silvery Playstation 3 sign.Mmm.

    Yes, it's true, the PS3 is sitting on an Al-Quran stand. It needs ventilation despite the twin internal fans okay?!

    It's like the sun of my life.. nah that's the camera flash. Doh!

     

    Next up!

    Acquired more recently, round the mid January, is this cute little thing known as the Nintendo DS Lite!

    This is my 3rd Nintendo console altogether. First being the old fat Gameboy, followed by the Micro Genius (Nintendo basically) and then the Super Nintendo! I hadn't been interested in the other Nintendo consoles since I was introduced to the original Playstation but somehow Nintendo has made a come back and this little handheld, I felt was pretty worth it. Especially since, it's a ONE-TIME payment scheme! What that means is that, I'm able to download the games online ( note: this is obviously illegal ) instead of forking out cash to buy the games. Good ay?

    Nintendo has made good use of the dual screen , touch screen and stylus and it all fits in rather perfectly with a lot of the games that are out on it. Why didn't I get the Wii? Well that's cause I got the PS3. I also kinda think that the Wii is more of a 'fad' at the moment and not geared towards proper gamers.Which is probably it's main aim. To appeal to everyone and that's fine too. I would have gotten it if my friends were more into video games or if my siblings were home. Lotsa fun for sure! So anyway.. I am loving this little change in  my videogame life! I can actually go to my grandmother's house and not get bored! Haha..

    Mmm.. Before it was opened..

    Charging the lil bugger. Looks sweet doesnt it!

    Open sesame. Dual screen. Simple yet..!

     

    So! That's my first entry for the year 2008! Er... not the only one I hope!

    Xanga has come a long way and to introduce this instant uploading of pictures is a great step!

    I still remember when I had to use another website to host the pictures then use the link from there. A little troublesome to say the least! Hope they increase the picture size though! Cause everyone knows I'm a cam-pimp.

    Cheers!

    The Swarm: A Novel

    Man.. I really suck at making entries.. ;-_-

        Sunday noon.. the usual time I wake up.. the day begins with a slight drizzle..that will no doubt slowly but surely turn into a full blown thunderstorm by the looks of the very swollen,greyish sky that can be seen through the window.
    Hmm good..rain can wash and refresh the land! Wash away our sins apparently? ^_^
    So it has been awhile since I've written here.. These days I just don't seem to have the time to sit down at my computer and write/type away. Usually it's cause I constantly have things to do, always on the go! Even more so I suppose from today onwards when my phatty sibling Lyn touches down in KLIA for a long summer break!
        Oh well.. it doesnt help that I usually prefer my 'blogs' to be very un-fancy and just rather plain. I don't try to put colours and fonts and stuff like that. Afterall, i believe the content in a blog is more important! Well in this case I don't care really. My blog entries have always been personal-ish, as though I'm talking to you ^_^ no fancy-schmancy words just in case it sounds pretentious!
        Anyhoo.. am on summer break myself at the moment. Gopi is around so been chilling with him, met up with the Concordians yesterday as well! It was good to catch up with them after so long. Hopefully more meetings in the near future! ^_^
    Yesterday was really a full social day for me. Was out from 12-6 then 8-12ish! The fatigue only set in after I came home and had freshened up.Then i just sat there and waited for Lyss to come home so we could watch some anime :) Haha..
        Ok lah..anyways.. rain getting heavier..and I ain't gonna risk it since my  past modem/routers have been fried 1,000,000 times really... it's like my area is cursed for these kinda electrical appliances.. thank god my ps2 is still fine.. ok i better shut it before i jinx it... ;-_-
    Laters!

    And so.. another week starts! This weekend will be ifran's bday! woo hoo! clubbing methinks? perhaps.. also.. just came back from midvalley..went to buy Gold Class tix for Alexander.. me and the family going..tomorrow night.. at 11:55pm.. hmm i wonder how my parents will keep awake.. hmm i think they should be able to lah! Well about the movie.. been hearing some real CRAP about it.. lotsa ppl saying it sux and all..but for me..well to hell with you ppl! Id not listen to a thing they say really.. to each his own.. ive got my own views on a movie.. so there! hehe..

    Okais.. on another note.. more Red Devils good news! We whacked SOTON on sat.. bliss yes.. a comfy 3-0 victory! Me and the foo's went to watch the Chelsea v Newcastle match first ( in which F.Y.I... Newcastle were pretty competent for the first hour or so.. but then got demolished after that.. 4-0..man..what a beating! ) at Souled Out in hartamas. crowd was good..then there was the pretty football crazy host Collette Wong there..along with the ex-msian footy player Shebby "Shebby Rasa" Singh! hehe. yeah.. so some cheap thrills there as we saw 'em and stuff.. We proceeded to watch the Man U V Soton match at Safiz... eventhough we had some perfect seatings in Souled Out.. but Ahmad Shorty ( Rais to everyone else ) appeared and stressed something about being SHORT on cash..( haw haw!) despite being a working man and sponsoring our skool football team last time..bleh bleh.. ok whatever.. so we shifted to Safiz lah!

    In my opinion..the only thing Safiz is good for is it's huge-ass screen projector which shows the matches. Other than that? SUCK! small-ass portions of food.. ( at an OBVIOUSLY cheap price ) and orders that dont go through.. gaRRR!! id take Lotus over Safiz anyday! Savvy?

    Okay okay.. what else ey? other than that.. gopi coffee sankar will be back in approx 2 weeks.. touchdown 18th Dec.. same as lyn!yay! hehe.. so..it'll be good to see that sunnii fool again lah! more footy.and more rantings at Onnies own "solo" artist..konon.. Mr Ahmad Vertically Challenged... darn im mean arent i? bah.. someone has to be! :) ok lah.. yeah.. so..cant wait!

    Anyways.. thats all for now! Back to my Mars!!! Kira Kira Kira.. ^_^
