Carpet Bombing

Always wondered why they decided on carpet. Started understanding the term when I see old films of whole towns/cities getting decimated with semi-precise nukin’s. However, that’s not what I want to talk about in this post. The reason I named this post as such is because I’ve got loads of stuff to talk about.

Honestly, I respect V’s advice to Wing Hoh regarding blog-posting/essay writing but I think I prefer a bare-all, balls-out approach. And thus, I begin!

The Promised Dash

Strangely enough, I AM still playing Cabal. It’s probably almost been a month now since I started and I think I’ve advanced pretty far. I’ve pretty much left all the kids and noobs behind me in Desert Scream/Green Despair/Bloody Ice and went on to Port Lux. So far I’ve attained my Battle Mode 2 – Grappler mode which gives me Wolverine-like claws that let me 1 Hit KO any poor sap that ticks me off. Providing that I am in a Player Kill channel.

Bah, enough of this Cabal jargon, on with the screenshots!

In my Silk Martial set. Seems like so long I was sitting there in Desert Scream



Just seemed like a really cool screenshot to take



This just looks epic...



Fast forward 20 levels, here I am in sunny Port Lux with an Epaulette of Guard +4



Take a good look at the Bluestin armour

Oh yeah~ Digital hotness. I have to give credit when it’s due. The Koreans know how to please MMORPG fans out there. Guess that’s another Asian country that’s gonna be well-known for something. China for being huge consumers. Japan for their anime/manga/ hentai. Malaysia with piracy and S’pore with their “there’s something in my rear end” uptightness. And now, Korea, for producing one huge ass amount of MMORPGs.

As you can see from the little words above my avatar’s head, yeah, I have joined a guild. Seems to be a fad catching on with MMORPGs these days. WoW with their raiding parties and Guild Wars with their, well, guilds. The Osmium Faction has been treating me nicely so far. Really funny bunch of people with quirks. They take care of their own people and shit but from what I saw from the “Retirement” thread at their official forum, there are people who get shunned aside (intentionally or not, I have yet to come to a conclusion) but what I could tell from the guys reaction to the Captain’s replies was that he was a punk-ass bitch.

*cough*

Seafood, Coconut Flower and Unker Lam Hong

Recently Unker Lam Hong came over to Sunway and took me and my brother to have a seafood meal somewhere in a god-forsaken place known as Tasik Gong. According to him, it used to be famous for the seafood (which was FUCKING amazing) and their “patented” Coconut Flower fermented coconut alcoholic beverage.

I don’t know how one would react to the thought of fermented coconut drinks, but trust me, it reeks of hell. It smells like piles of garbage with at least a week’s worth of thrown away food, left in the rain for days to rot. It’s THAT bad. And my uncle downed like the whole bottle, mixed with some Guiness beer. Urgh. Nasty ass shit.

Good Friends Seafood Restaurant - In the middle of freakin' nowhere



I wouldn't expect much grammar in such a place =P



The freakin' "Coconut Flower" alcoholic beverage. Yeech...



Had a li'l PLAIN coconut for afters



Was bored so I stuck a whole bunch of toothpicks in my coconut

Note to self: Never try fermented drinks. EVER. AGAIN.

Working On My Left Brain

I’ve been meaning to cram some form of literature/music into my head again after awhile of listening to mind-numbing man-made beats of the Step Up 2 OST so I went around the 7th floor and grabbed everyone’s playlist. Oddly enough, only Swedish melodic death metal, something rock and pop rock made it into my playlist. Namely, In Flames, John Mayer and OneRepublic.

You might be going, “WTF, death metal?” No, seriously, it’s not always about self-mutilation, death, drugs, booze and worshipping Satan. This… well, so far, no. Or maybe in the past, In Flames has done such things but the stuff I’ve been listening to is tight. Yes, he sings like he’s screaming for his life but overall, it’s tight.

A solid album. 5/5 Nuff' said, bitches!

John Mayer… Never expected me to listen to him. I do surprise myself. All I have to say is that his songs are excellent for late-night drives and a li’l R&R. OneRepublic… I WILL classify it as pop rock but their album is solid. Nothing cheesy, very talented people in that band. Stop and Stare, which is probably on the verge of being overplayed is of course, tight. All Fall Down, Mercy and the original Apologize is just… amazing. Well-thought and composed. Another album excellent for night time driving and for chilling.

Will find time to engross myself in it



NSA's dirtiest secrets almost gets spilled!

Now for the literature part. I finished Dan Brown’s Digital Fortress a few weeks back. Amazing stuff, I must admit. I just bought Deception Point but can’t really find the time to read it. Pity pity. However, I did manage to pick up 2 Iron Man titles that I had my eye on for quite some time, one post Civil War and the other pre-Extremis, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D and Hypervelocity respectively.

Hypervelocity - One of the freakiest and high-octane IM stories I have read

Director of S.H.I.E.L.D focuses mainly on how Stark has been handling a military super organization as a company, the rise of an old enemy and grotesquely gruesome art. Phew… Amazing stuff. Hypervelocity… is one heck of a story. For some sick strange reason I fell in love with the Absynthe character in the story. She may some masochistic, suicidal and pierced chick but somehow, that really, REALLY turned me on. I must have a fetish for chicks like that. Damn.

Phew. End of the line. Long ass post, I know. Hope you guys enjoyed it. Peace out y’all.

P.S: Check me out at Monash Street Carnival on the 26th of April.
