The Longest Post Ever (Probably)

I'd always mused at how some people managed to start their blog entry with 'today seems to be a boring day' and then ended up with blog entry which takes forever to scroll. But then, I might be doing the same thing right now, as I'd been offline for quite a few days, and I'd really got lots of things to blog about. So as to keep it organized, I'm breaking it into parts, and it all started as a boring day... (Ahem, sorry, lame joke)

1. Of an Unexpectedly Good Movie


2012. Frankly, this is certainly not my first choice of movie for the holiday. Disaster movies tend to rely way too heavily on CGI. In other words, explosions all the way to kingdom come. But I found some other things inside 2012. The director explored issues such as human emotions on the verge of death, the ugly side of human, and the predicted response and complots from the United States government (yep, typical US made disaster film). There are a few moments in the film which will leave you in tears. But surprisingly, went I got out of the cinema, I saw a few guys with red eyes (including me) but none of the girls...

The reception of the movie is so good, that the cinema's authorities had even issued a formal written statement:



2. Of a Movie I-Promised-I-Won't-Watch-It-In-The-Midnight-Again


Generally, Thai directors consist of two large groups: either their scary movies are so scary it can scare the shit out of you, or their comedies are so funny it will leave you in stitches. And I dare to say that both statements applied to Phobia 2. Phobia 2 is a compilation of 5 short horror movies from 5 of the best horror movie directors of Thailand. The compilations are truly admirable, leaving you wanting for more. This make me wanna look for the prequel of this, 4bia.


3. Of Two Superb Camwhores

They are so sensitive to cameras, they can sense a person taking photos of them from 5 storeys above.


Guess who they are?

4. Of an Unusual KFC Combo

Went to this Wangsa Maju KFC (Which they claimed to be the 333th branch), and saw they offered something different: Flava' Roast chicken. The idea is that the chicken is roasted and grilled instead of the usual fried chicken. Trust me, KFC tastes better when it is fried.



5. Of Something I Will Feel Guilty For Sure

I'm having OSPE tomorrow and yet I'm posting my longest post ever (damn).

Otak oh Otak...

Otak oh otak
kenapa tidak ingat?
"Macam mana aku nak ingat?
Lecture banyak giler,
lecture banyak giler..."

Lecture oh lecture
kenapa banyak giler?
"Macam mana aku tak banyak?
Korang kan dah kat Uni?
Korang kan dha kat Uni?"

Haih...

(Adapted from 'Hujan oh Hujan')

Well, though I had promised myself no emo posts for this finals, but I just can't help it. Judging by my rate, tonight is going to be another sleepless night...

No worries, this is not an emo post. Just got bored of studying, so thought of posting something to mess around with your mind. :) (Hint: Clicking on the picture for a larger view might help!)

My Dinner...

Thought I will have something nice tonight. いただきます(Itadakimasu, meaning 'bon apetit' in Japanese)

Speechless

Conned!

Came across this advertisement about a week-long exhibition in KLCC. The '2009 Petronas MotoGP Showcase' is supposed to have 'display of Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo's bikes', so I was quite pumped-up, thinking that I will get the chance to see this bike below:

Valentino Rossi doing a wheelie on his Yamaha YZR-M1

But what awaits me, are these two Petronas Sprinta bikes on the display:

I mean, what the @#$%! It's not like Petronas will publicly lie about this kind of things right? So far, I can only come up with two possible explanation:

1. It's a bloody, misguiding advertisement

Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo both ride Yamaha YZR-M1. Both bikes on display ARE YZR-M1. This means the 'display of Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo's bikes' are supposed to read as 'display of Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo's bikes' model'. Shit.

2. Those 2 bikes are taken to Sepang for the MotoGP race running at that time

Come on, anyone with a brain will not risk putting their current racing bikes on display??!! don't you have some older models of bikes??!!


There goes an afternoon of mine, spent away looking at some under-performing Malaysian labelled Not-So-Super-Bikes

An Incident in HUKM

I went to HUKM not for physical examination session, but to look for 40-year-old-and-above elderlies (we'll call them Uncles here).

OK, so once we got the things started, I found a Malay Uncle sitting quietly writing something there, so approached him...

"Yes, anything I can help you, young man?"

I got my first shock. Firstly because he just spoke to me in fluent English (something I didn't expect from Uncles, ahem, elderlies...), then he is very friendly towards some young brat who for sure wants this old poor uncle to go do some funny funny tests and questions...

Then I got my second shock. It seems that he's clearly aware of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and all the diagnostic procedures for it. This is something really rare in Malaysia. So my perception is: this is a highly educated Uncle.

Halfway through the questionnaire, our advisor, Prof. Zulkifli came out from the clinic, walked towards our direction while saying:

"Oh, here you are, Datuk."

...
...
Did Prof. just called him 'Datuk'?

"And I see you got him for your questionnaire? Well, it's our honour to have you helping us out in the questionnaire, Datuk."

The Prof. turned to me and said:

"Did you know that Datuk Amir is the first dean of Medical Faculty of UKM?"

That explains all!

And throughout the rest of the session, he was so familiar with it, I felt like I can just leave it all to himself!

Guess this is my luck day! (And also unlucky, considered I addressed him as Uncle for most of the time...)
