Theres No Beat Without You

Holy hell.... It took me 2 days to finish uploading the pictures. I dont think its tHAT many... but well.. we all know the power of our TMNET.So yeah,back to my post. My recent trip to Cambodia.21st- 25th November 2007.

Flight was at 7am... something like that. It was a bad morning, nearly missed my flight, got majorly fucked by my sister..bla bla bla, Shall not go there. So yes... arrived at Siam Reap around 11am. Siam Reap is an hour behind, so I keep getting the time wrong.

First thing we did, was go to the hotel, dumped out bags n started searching for food. My first meal in Cambodia, this soup noodle with beef. Hmm... I must say, it tasted alil weird, but the soup is addictive.

Next was a visit to the silk farm. You know... where they make silk....?

yeah....these lil fella make them silk. Kinda gross to think about it, we're wearing these lil wormy's saliva. Anyways, to cut things short, I were explained all the steps to make silk. A process that requires alot of skill. Those people are good.

K, moving along... we went to see this place where they do, wood and stone carvings. Again.. those ppl are really skilled. So patient....

See the little Buddha heads..? hahah so cute. They're all hand made. I havent seen a single Machine in that place. I wanted to bring one home... but err err err... forgot why I didnt. Nvm...

Next.... oh, at night already. So we had buffet dinner at this place that had some cultural performances. So, yeah, you get to eat like a pig..while being entertained by some peasant dance. Woo...

Day 2

Welcome to Angkor Wat..... no actually this isnt Angkor Wat..thats the Tomb Raider place, I forgot what was the name. I just like that tree, standing on top of the building. Interesting, how it got up there.

They ALLLLL have amazing carvings on the wall... not just the wall, the doors, pillars, door frame and all. CRazY I tell you, the ppl last time have too much free time in hand. Everyday wake up and carve wall.

Oh here's another view of that tree. I dont know if the tree started from the bottom n grew up the building... or it started on the top and the roots went down south.hmmm.....

Anywaysss.... Thats.. my sister, looking all small inside one of the chambers. Dont know why they built such a high ceiling, were men THAT tall last time? hehehe

That.... is one of the tree whos life is being suckEd the hell out by a parasite. Apparently, if that tree dies, then the building might collapse because the tree roots are holding it up, preventing it from crumbling.

See... the other parts,without good ol mr tree to hold the walls up... they're all gone. What a waste, there are more nice carvings inside.

Next, this orange thingy is a temple for the ladies. Bantey Srei, If im not mistaken, not too sure bout the spelling. But yes, its for the ladies to pray... or something. God know what a lady temple is for.hehehe.

THIS..... is one of the 7th wonder of the world.... the Great, Angkor Wat. Its such a LONG walk to go in there... Have to pass by a bridge... then more walk... then door... then... more walk ways... then library... then this little lake? in front... then only the temple... bahh...

Before reaching the building... I came across this lil fella sitting in the middle of the road.. playing with that bottle. Obviously... Monkeys arent like other animals. I disturbed it by putting my shoes near its face, it came after me. I dont know if it understood english, But i said sorry and it left me alone.ehehehe.

Uh...do I need to tell you that... its me? Ok well.. thats.. me.. with loads of pillars at the back... and on my.....right is this really long wall with some Hindu stories carved on it. Something bout Ramayana bla bla bla. You know, the one in our sastera back in school. thats if you remember.

Angkor Wat, is like... a box in a box. Theres that outter box, which I was talking about...with the Hindu stories, and in the middle of it, is this "box". there are more Buddha statues inside, but unfortunately, the head is missing from most of it, some of it taken by the ppl to sell, some said its because of the different kings in the past. Some were Buddhist followers, some were into Hinduism. So... fight la you know... need not explain.

K... next temple. This one I remember the name. Its called Bayun. Not too sure if I remember the spelling.hehehe.Sorry.. I am badd at spelling.

From far it looked like some termite's nest.

But up close.. you see the face of Buddha carved into the walls.... They're BIG. See... kinda cute right?

Yeah.... over 1000years with no fingers to scratch, lemme give you a hand there ay?

Day 3

To the great lake, Tonle Sap. Things like these, you've only ever read about it in the history books or whatever... but the lake... is really huge.....felt like I was at SEA when I was there. Except, there were plants and TREES in the water.

Oh, got to visit their lil croc farm. See this lil fella smiling for me? too bad I know he's gonna die, his skin and meat exported to China. But he doesnt know that... ignorant is bliss. =)

The fish farm, croc farm are run by the people who lives on the lake. I think they called them the boatman? boat people? something like that. They literally live on the boat. Its like this lil SAMPAN, with added roof and walla.... a home. Some of it had TV inside, some even have pets. Wonder where does the dogs poop....

Aight... back on land... we headed to the street they call, pub street. Thats where all the restaurants, bars and pubs are located.

We went to this one called, The Red Piano. Its where Angelina Jolie had her meals when she was shooting Tomb Raider. its Khemer food, which also means Cambodian food, if you didnt know.

Back at our hotel, we saw these bunch of bikers from Britain. They were on some charity mission. We were told that they started cycling from Saigon in Vietnam and this was their stop. At our hotel. Those ppl are cool man. We cheered and clapped for them from our balcony.heheh support support!

For dinner, we went back again to pub street, but this time being more adventures, we tried their street food. I had fried noodle with beef. Thats the picture at the bottom, the top one is Fried rice with pork. Oh yes they have PoRk everywhere.But I prefer beef.

I reckon its something like our Maggie goreng here, but theirs is SOOOO much better....and cheaper too. Oh, I'm missing it now already.

Day 4

We headed down to the river, which is pretty close by to our hotel as well, to watch the boat race. Its a mini version of the big dragon boat race in Phnom Penh. There they have about 50 people in ONE boat, in Siam Reap, its only about 20 per boat. They race 2 by 2... so it was ok, i think. Nothing really interesting.

But the people there, must love it. There were SOOOOOO many people everywhere, kids were in the trees...seriously...

After that, we went to this place called the old market. Its like our pasar seni or something, coz they sell all sorta things outside, bracelets, statues, magnets, paintings, bla bla bla, you get the picture. But inside, smacked in the middle of it, is this market place. I smelt fish from a distance and was wondering what the hell it was. Guess when they call it the market, its no joke.

did some last minute shopping, bought BOOZe... oh yeah didnt mention that booze there are CHEAP LIKE HELL, seriously...CHEAP LIKE hell...Oh and also because of that, we drank everyday while we were there.hehe. K... continue... uh.. dinner we had it at this restaurant called the Indochine restaurant. I had...beef again. But mine was AWESOME. beef never tasted so good. Everyone else had pasta but their eyes were darted at my dish. I have a good eye for food la, leave me alone. Drank some more that night, slept for about 3 hours bcoz my bro forgot that its an hour earlier in Siam Reap, thus setting the alarm...an hour earlier. grrr..... So... woke up at 4.30 AM.... packed...had a few bites of breakfast before leaving....... and...

Homeward bound by 8 something am. It was a good trip, cheap alco aside, really...Wouldnt mind going back there again in the next few years. Lets give it time to grow. Cambodia is such a poor place. At least places like that makes me appreciate whatever I have here now more.haha. Ok, thats the SHoRtesT possible way I could make this. I took over 420++ pictures for that trip... and I think its less than 30 here? Not too sure.. ok... thats all folks. Hope you're still awake reading this point. Adios.

If I Dont See You Anymore

Ok... first I'm all busy with work, nothing interesting happened for at least 2 weeks of my life.. and suddenly I have too many things I have not blogged about. This shall serve as my reminder. First, I have.. my Cambodia trip. Then...the Red Arrow air show at TUDM, and then Maison with some of the abroad fuckers...then then...ok la, I think thats the more interesting parts. Right now, I need to sleep.

Home

I AM HOME~~!!!! *hugs computer,pillow,bolster,bed,blanket tight*

Voices In My Head, Wont Let Me Be.

Yeah yeah.. Monday was the end.... IF I had finished it.. Sigh.. and I thought, by today, I would have been able to throw it all away and go get a drink to let loose. Guess not. Shit....JUSt KILL mE lAaaa...I think I really have suicidal tendencies now. I lost count of how many houRS have I been awake. Maybe it would be easier to just count the number of hours I've slept.... Ok, lets see... marathon began Friday night... but that I slept coz... I was over confident. I THOUGHT I could finish. OK So...rephrase that. Marathon began Saturday night..., I think I slept for... maybe 3 hours. Then Sunday....No sleep at all.Unless you count all the short 15mins-30 mins nap in between rendering...Which probably makes up to an hour or 2. ThEN came Monday...no....not yet. Its Tuesday today right? I've kinda lost my sense of timing. What has been going on in the world? I feel Lost... and I feel 80 coz my backs all aching, not to mention my butt too...

So so so back to my hours of sleep..yeah..... that makes...5? 5 hours in 2 days. Wow...not bad. I'm amazed at myself. haha..*pats self*... Oh ignore me... I'm abit whacked out in the head right now. Its not really processing properly. Ignore the dots too... I dont know why.. but I just felt like putting alot of dots..kinda explains the way my head's working in soME weird way....yeah..er... k... I think its done rendering....back to work. *waves*

Suicidal Jeolousy Has Become MeEeeE~~~

They're coming home.. and Monday WILL BE my LAST day. It WILL be.... *chants be strong be strong!!* This will be the last hurdle....*summons great power* Anyone wanna help? Options available are.... donation of RAM. Apparently 2gb isnt enough. It still takes forever to render. Option b, Pay a professional to help. Or C........Bomb LUCT now.. so that all other works will be destroyed. Yeah..that sounds good. hahaha. Okay.. needed a moment to lighten up. All that work is making me suicidal. I wasnt wrong bout what would happen after we got the assignment brief for that video clip. *I aint slithing my wrist I aint slithing my wrist!* LOL....okok.. back to work.

The Game, The World Stopped To Watch

Well, I'm sure most of you know about the big game over the weekend. I think even those who do not watch football heard about it. Arsenal against Manchester United. This is really slow. haha. But Man...was it a good game. It was such an intense game for me. Firstly because Arsenal has had a good run this season being in good.if not top form. While Manchester, still slowly recovering from those stupid 1-0 wins. I dare not say anything, neither did I put in too high hopes of winning. I figured, if they could hold them off and draw, I'd be satisfied.

And then came the 46th minute, Rooney struck from the right, and it went it. OMG. I realised I might have been the only one standing up jumping around, but I didnt care. Holy Hell. The half time whistle blew and I had some time to chill.

I'm still not sure who's goal is it. Some said, its Rooney's and some said, it was Gallas's own goal. Not sure, But whats for sure, its a goal to Man utd.

But I knew... it aint over. Feeling alil more confident, but it aint over. And I was sooooooo right. 3 minutes into the second half, Arsenal scored. Fabregas to be precise. The way I look at it, it was Man Utd's mistake. BIG mistake. I blame it on Wes Brown. But thats just my opinion. Now you know why I have a jersey with a no.6 but has no name. Thank freaking god.


Moving along, When Louis Saha was substituted, I was more than relieved, I was excited. And I was right again, he made an impact. Passing a nice ball to Evra, and Evra getting the keeper's attention slided the ball into the center for Ronaldo. Oh man.. another superb moment. And I thought, that COULD just be it. its in the 82nd minute. just HOLD ON DAMNIT. HOLD ON!.... There I was counting down the minutes,with each passing minute I get more n more tensed. They then announced that 3 minutes have been added. I felt it was such bullshit, because nothing happened during game time why should they add so much?

And then came this moment where it was really messy, and everyone around was screaming because the ball was goin left and right center and all the Arsenal players are all up, and then EVERYONE, EVERYONE thought it was safe. When Joel suddenly turned around and said "ITS A GOAL!!!!!!!!!" we were all stoned, looking at him like " wtf are you talking about?" And its for real......the video reply shows that, eventho Van Der Sar managed to stop the ball from entering the net, he didnt stop it from crossing the line. Damn the refrees are sharp, this time. So.... there you go... one of the most, exciting matches, most.....FINGeR Eating, smoke-till-your-lungs-collapse and hair pulling matches. It was disappointing, no doubt, I'm a UNITED FAN DAMNIT.... but... it was a good match. And like I said.... I would have been happy with a draw.... and a draw they got.

Jeebus.... I'm so emotional when it comes to football. gahhhhh. Arsenal has a way of spoiling our fun huh, Liverpool fans?Damn Fabregas, why are you so damn good?

If You Could Be Happy

I want to get a new phone, because my current one is/ has been giving me problems. But I dont know which one to choose.


This is the new N81... its the bomb... but its abit out of the budget. So which leaves me to the 2 cheaper versions.....

6500 Slide

5610 Express Music

On A New York City Night

WARNING.... for thoSE..who have limited bandwidth...hahah u should stop now...

Ok...last Thursday, I went..from Mardigras to Maison. Mardigras around 10 to meet Seng n we had some black lable...they were having some fullmoon party or someshit.. boring. So left for Maison at bout 11.30, to actually to meet my friend, Alfred. But he gotta go by the time I arrived. Nevermind that, Nat and Kelli were on the way so, its all good.

We decided to open a bottle of Bacardi Apple. Woo hoo yeah... I went crazy with the drink. Bottle finished in a blink of an eye. Also in that blink of an eye..I totally lost my memory. Those 2 monkeys damn smart. Catch me to camwhore when I'm high. Normally, I wouldnt even take more than 5 pictures, but that night, there seemed to be ALOT....however, I dont remember 80% of it. Nasty. But despite my CANNOT MAKE IT[CMI] face, I think the pictures were kinda cool. It was just so.... um happy.


Vee Lyn and her friend Farah... also joined in the fun. I remembered that she was drunk...but apparently, I was worse.hahaha.

A VERY happy picture of Nat, Kelli and Me. ahahha

I remembered after the bottle of apple, I bought beer. I have no idea why was I that crazy. Beer after all those drinks = nono.

THOU shall NOT steal my BEER!! Makes chubby an angry Chinchilla.

SEe.. leave my beer alone and I'm happy. meeEt Yoouuu TherEe~~

uh.. Dont know what this is about. Must me someone making alot of noise or something. A very typical pose, back when the soundsystems were around.

K to the O. I hope...there was no puke or any sort of disgusting things on that sofa.

o.O I have no idea who those ppl are. Dont think I've seen them in my life. Why am I posing with them...?

even MORE of the crazy camwhore session I had....tsk tsk tsk... maybe I'm secretly a camwhore afterall. ahhahaah.

Havent got the pictures for Global Gathering yet.... next time.

I watch the sky turn black to blush
Head still spinning from the rush
Of all the things I did the night before

Paul Van Dyk

Up The Wall

I am back.. from Malacca, for.. I'm sure most people would know. And it just reminded me, of how nice it is to be AWAY from here.Even just for a little while. Cant stand my parent's SHIT sometimes, especially my DADs. I am 21 and I'm tired of the whole I-am-the-man-of-the-house-i'm-always-right nonsense. I did NOTHING wrong and I dont deserve the "warm" welcome home greeting I got. More like.. I didnt know what went on, dont know what they were being upset about and what all that shit was for.Yes I got a new video camcorder to work on, thanks... but if that is in exchange for the shitty attitude I received, I'd rather have non of that material shit. I cant understand them, and they sure cant understand me. Talk about family bond. It is only nice and peaceful if I OBEY EVERY DAMN THING.

I'm tired, stressed out from friends getting lost, taking 4 freaking hours to get home from Malacca, I really...dont need non of that shit. I may have had a nice time away, but THANKS for ruining my whole god damn weekend.....motherfucker......

Edited:

Is there something I'm missing? Why does it feel like there isnt any communication? Sometimes I feel like I AM some alien they found on the streets and decided to keep as their child. They never seem understand anything about me, and all that misunderstandings, just lead to more and more agitated talk, until... talking, isnt the word to describe the noises coming out of our mouths. I am..was pissed beyond limits but truth is, I'm alil hurt inside. I am just....tired. Mentally and physically. I think I'll disappear for a couple of days. Anyone free to have dinner with me this week?

Sweet, Sugar, Candy....girl?

okok, I know I'm pretty late here. But since I'm very "busy" and I have "no time" to blog, I shall be forgiven. 25th October, that is...Yesterday.??[I'm not that late afterall] is my dear rubbish friend's 21st bday. Yeah...we're all finally 21. except for smalls [slow mo]. I think we've had a fair share amount of interesting bdays together. Especially youRs, back in school. Its been fun celebrating with you through all these years, and I only hope for more to come.

Your....bimbo-ness never seize to amaze...and amuse me. Some things that I cannot imagine a normal girl to do this fella jumps right into it. Sometimes I dont know if i should hide my face and claim not to know you, or just be proud of it. ahahhaha. Ok, its your birthday, I shall not be mean. Of course I'm proud of it......or..we wouldnt still be friends for so long.*pats Jinyin's head*



And since you've been gone, My nights out have been...er..alot less? haha Nah.. it hasnt, its just been less interesting, yeah. That was 06-07 NYE at Zouk. Looking forward for this year's NYE =)

Zoukout in Singapore....but I guess you cant make it back in time.

Well... all I can say is that.... Have a GreaT... or I hope you had a great bday over there. If it isnt enough, we have round 2 back here remember? hehehehe. I dont know what else to say la... I'm not good with words. I hope you miss me. ahhahahaha

and yeah... I know you love me. hahaha.. Happy 21st lap sap!

50 cent Wonders

Do we need AnyMore reasons to drink? hmm... warsteiner... yum =)

Speak In Sympathy

The summer breeze blows soft and slow
and in my arms, I know, you know
the tender seeds we so gently sow
can only wonder what went wrong

and when I'm lost, you speak in sympathy
and when I'm tired, you breath life into me
and when i'm hurt, you put your arms around me
and when I'm cold, you find the warmth inside of me

the morning dew lies on the leaves
and what's left between is you and me
the sun grows strong and it speaks to me
you're the only lover I ever need to hear

and so the trees stayed in the breeze
and I find strength in all I feel
the softest touch you give to
you're the only lover I ever need to hear

and when I'm lost, you speak in sympathy
and when I'm tired, you breath life into me
and when i'm hurt, you put your arms around me
and when I'm cold, you find the warmth inside of me

Solar Stone - Speak In Sympathy

my new addiction. I have no idea why this song captures my attention. Its not the usual melodic kinda thing that I like. But its just.. oh man.. its just captivating.

Of Big Dutch People

Last week was pretty hectic. People's birthdays, Maison, Bamboo, more birthdays and the closing Sunday, Armin at Zouk. I'd say, he did play better than last year. More banging stuff apparently since Remy started off progressive and left Armin with a rather banging start. Armin, as usual, takes a lil while to hit the note. So when it finally did the last hour or so, it was just good shit. World no.2 people. Sorry for those who weren't there. I suppose, you DID miss out alot. Its one of those nights, that I had no/not much drinks to go together with the fun. Had some massive stomach pain after Kelli's place and decided to stay off alcohol for awhile. So yes, I was the driver for 2 very retarded but funny people and while in Zouk, babysitting a even more retarded bitch. Sigh...It is not until the last final half hour when all the retards were nicely sitting on the sofa, that I could just let go and jump. Heck, it was the closing already, if not now, never. Plus, we left slightly early.

So, no "hey Armin, good stuff". Didnt even get to catch a glimps of him that night, this time. Not until the next day.....



We met him at the hotel lobby, had some ShoRt small talks and some pictures, shoke some hands and bye bye. I'm still clearly upset about not having my State of Trance 2007 album with me for him to sign it well... because I seem to have pretty irresponsible friends. I had nothing for him to sign. My dissapointment level was off the charts. Oh well, nothing I can do now. He's halfway around the world by now. Maybe next year.

After meeting Armin, we went over to 1U for movie, Bourne Ultimatum. Pretty good show, couldnt get video outta my head. After the movie, we had some snacks at the monday pasar malam at ss2 as we were not really hungry. Sent Jean home and AC, was our next target. Sat there from about 12 up till 5 plus. Bond came n join us. I didnt realise time passed by so fast. We were just sitting and talking.hmm.. oh well... this was what we had.

Guess which one's mine? hehehe

Ok.. its the semester break this week. But I really should be doing my work as the datelines and presentations are around the corner. So, shall go n eat n start work. Adios everybody....*looks left...looks right* no one... *hangs head n walks off*

South Side The Mall~~!!

fuuh... well ya look at that. Its been so darn dull in here, I can smell fungus in my own page. Ok that was lame. Anyways, I'm here to bring some entertainment. If you're in need of a gooood laugh. Check out this video. Even if you're not in need of a laugh.. you still can watch...advisable.


thats the song from Death Note btw...

also check this out. Super semangat guy.



man.. i love YouTube.

When Sunrise Never Comes Again

I dont know if its me, or has the death of teens and young adults been increasing lately? And its all because of car accidents.Maybe I have just been more sensitive to things like that recently. Its such a waste that life ends like that for them. I guess all good things...must eventually come to an end. Maybe its a way of controlling the world's population. Maybe its a warning for other youths who may have been affected by the loss. Maybe they were good souls in the past life, and having a shorter life this time is a good thing? Maybe... ahh.. I dont know. I cant stop thinking bout when might be the last time I see certain people, or that pain of losing them, or the family's pain, their mother's cry and the lost hopes. Maybe if we're not so attached to other people we would not feel all those emotions when they're no longer here. You wouldnt feel the loss, you wouldnt feel like something's missing. I think about it so often, it annoys me. I know its a good thing, to be careful all the time. Its hard to change. But its changing me.

Let me explain.... I love alcohol. I love my nights out in a club or a bar, with friends and music.I dont care if I'm smacked drunk or pass out from it,I know I can think of ways to get home. But what about the people that I was with? If I cant make sure that everyone gets home safe after drinking...I have to worry about who I might lose or worse... Who I might kill.

Oh, blame that damn newspaper today. I didnt have to read about those 5 people dying. Not at 6am and Not at Serdang hospital. Anyways... gotta go edit my movie now...Presentation's tomoro.

To The Rescue!

I dont have time for alot of things but....



4-0 IS THE SHITTTTTT!!!! WHOOOOO HOOOO

they're coming back. coming back.

if you havent been watching sports lately, I'm talking bout Manchester United's Superb game and also for those who missed the match, THIS is what I'm talking about.

Quickie

Damn.. I'm so outdated. Been pretty busy lately, its week 10 of the semester already. All the work is coming to about 50% or more. Some of the modules have presentation as early as next week, week 11. So, I'm really in a state of panic and stress right now. More chicken essence and red bull from now on. What a vicious cycle. By the time I'm done with this semester, I wont be seeing much of daylight as I will sleep when the sun rises and awake when it sets. I'm a werewolf and the transition begins now. Lets see, I'm missing the update bout my birthday celebration, Nat's celebration and uhh....thats all I remember for now. So yeah. Will do when I have spare time. Tomoro, shooting for my video. Good luck to me. Yeah, I wish myself coz no one wishes me. ehehhe. Aight,next time.
