Fuck Me

Funny story with tragic ending… Listen now. Few weeks back my cousin, the younger one; Chong Zhuang was driving my brother back for the weekend. With or without other friends, I’m not so sure. They had hit the rear end of the bus where the passenger was and my brother was there. My mum insisted it was his good karma that prevented him from getting hurt. I played it cool in that conversation and joked and mocked it.

Big guy upstairs needed to prove a point apparently.

A routine trip back to Ipoh was planned as usual and my brother, Chong Zhuang and his older brother, my cousin Chong Wei who was the same age as me, and 2 other friends were to go back together. I lied to my mum regarding the Monash Ball and kinda conveniently forgot to tell her that the coming week was the mid-sem break. So I was to stay back in Sunway to chill. So, going on with life, I was at Pyramid shopping for the Monash ball.

Off-topic: I had 2 dates for this night and special surprises lined up all over.

Since I had nothing better to do until gym, I decided to go watch these guys play some snooker. Around 5, I went back home to chill before going to gym. I noticed some of my Lego Batmobile parts on the floor so I called my brother, who was on his way home to Ipoh. So I started asking him if he tipped it over. He said yeah and then all of sudden I heard a shout, some screams, jumbled noises and wind blowing.

I’ll spare whatever that happened at my end and go on straight to the point of all this. Apparently Chong Woi had fallen asleep on the wheel, accelerated, nearly hitting a truck but swerved to the right instead, hit the divider, bounced and flipped towards the left side of the road. My brother just had a swollen cheek whereas the other 2 friends had minor injuries. Chong Woi walked out the same way he walked in. Unfortunately, Chong Zhuang was severely injured and passed on upon arriving at the hospital in Tapah.

Fuck this shit, man. People keep telling me I can’t blame myself but I feel as though by wanting to do what I want instead of going home, I could’ve avoided all of this. Chong Woi would probably have asked me to drive and I would’ve probably seen him being sleepy.

FUUUCCCKKK!!!!!

Never knew the repercussions for such a small lie would turn out like this.

FUUUCCCCKKKK!!!!

FUUUCCCKKK!!!!


Fuck this shit man. Just don’t have the energy to argue, care or anything anymore. Fuck man. FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!

Empty

Damn, that sounds like such an emo title. Nah, I ain’t going to pull one out. There’re a few things I would like to get off my chest to start this post off. Firstly, I actually feel that I’ve been skipping way too many classes. Now it’s like instead of one class ‘cause it’s really late into the afternoon, it’s more like a whole day. I skipped 4 freakin’ hours on Monday alone and I skipped another 2 hours today! For idiotic reasons to boot! I have seriously got to pull my show together. I get disappointed at myself because I start getting doubts when assignments are due and shit like that. At least I have a relatively clear idea on what’s due next week. So far I haven’t FORGOTTEN about any upcoming tests like last semester. This semester there are weekly online tests and I’ve done a few just because we all did it together in the computer lab.

I hope I’ll have a buttload more discipline if I get to Australia, otherwise I’m screwed. I guess that pretty much sums up whatever I needed to get off. Alright, now to the meat of the post. Rahul was saying the other day how the days felt empty and Taqi said it was probably because of how routine life is and how what we do for fun is just mildly entertaining and of course, the main thing is that there seriously is nothing that grand to look forward to, at all.

I know back in Ipoh it’s pretty much the same, where I stay home everyday with my phone switched off and download shows and movies endlessly just to fill the gaps between sleep and mealtimes. Maybe I should pick up some bombastic hobbies… Like bungee-jumping or skydiving. Rock-climbing’s mildly entertaining if you’re a fan of bondage sex. Okay, that one didn’t make much sense to me.

Fuck this shit, I’ve got assignments to finish.

Bum-Bum-BumBum-Bum-Bummmm~

Just imagine it to the tune of Star Wars. Me and Rushdi were kinda bored outta our skulls we decided to go hit the movies and since I was itching for Star Wars, we went. I’m pretty lazy right now to go write a review so I’ll sum it up in a few adjectives, “good” and “entertaining”. That should rile you all up.

Alrighty then, fun’s over. I have to at least finish up this Executive Summary, Introduction and half of the body paragraphs for Marketing Research, study for Friday’s IEF test and also, finish up the AMC take home test. It may look like 3 items on a piece of paper but it sure as hell is a buttload of work. Peace out y’all.

Mecha Gone Quirky



"Eeee-vaaa?" For a sentient robot, he's quite retarded if you think about it

When I hear the word "robot", my mind flashes to the arsenal-heavy Gundams and Power Rangers. Any other interpretation would be seriously wrong in my head. For some odd reason, I accepted an invitation to go watch Wall-E. We've all been pestered incessantly by those dumb-ass "try-to-be-cute" commercials that Disney keeps bombarding us with. Felt like some idiot kept giving me disgusting pictures of lalamuis posing with their infamous signs. With people like this, I wonder why gun regulation in M'sia shouldn't be lighter. I would love to unload a clip or two, just in the kneecaps. Nothing fatal. I'm kind, what can I say?

*grin*

Anyways, I've careened off the cliff again. Wall-E is a character that I've seen one too many times, pre-programmed robot gaining sentience and feelings. A tried and tested formula in many fields of fiction, to be really honest, but Pixar took him on another old path and succeeded by amazing us with incredibly spectacular computer graphics, a sad but humorous future of humans, a watered down enviromental message and a script that only a mediocre comedy writer with a knack for trading his skills for a nice stash of pot could write.

Wall-E is pretty much a non-stop action-adventure-romantic comedy that keeps the laughs and oohs and ahhs coming. You're pretty much giggling, oogling the amazing graphics or on the edge of your seat most of the time for this movie.

Ol' Spiky's Rating: 3.7/5 - I don't know what's up with the 0.7, I just thought a 4 was too much and 3.5 too little.

Bottomline is that it's a movie you bring your kids to, your pre-pubescent siblings and your girlfriend which you still wonder how she got through high school while thinking that Santa will come through her chimney next Christmas. I don't know about you, but I was in it for the graphics. Wall-E is one hell of a horny bastard if you ask me.

*wink*

Don't think too much about it. Either download it to pass time or spend some money and enjoy with someone else. Peace out y'all.

Tying Up Loose Ends

Let’s just say that a lot of weight can be removed from your shoulders if you confront your past, be it glorious or not. I guess that when they say time can heal wounds, there’s some truth in those lines. 2 years and finally I get it done with. I wonder why I never thought about this earlier. If it were a year ago or 6 months back I’d probably have drown out my problems with some other foreign substance just to evade the pain.

I guess that’s how alcoholics and potheads come along. *shrug*

Although I could’ve done more and said more, I’m pretty happy with the way things are. Like I always say, there’s a time and place for everything and I think that it’s not the time yet nor the place. Let’s see what happens after we’re done with our obligations. Although it’s only realistic to think that nothing will happen and everyone will move along quietly with the flow.

Bah, gag me already. Peace out y’all.

Post Summer Flicks

Well, the last best one has already passed us all and I can’t freakin’ believe that some people have not watched Dark Knight yet. Yes, wipe that incredulous look off your face. There are such people. I pity them. Anyways, movies are movies and they all stand a fair chance at being entertaining and groundbreaking. Unfortunately, no such luck for these two movies

Chink In Bandages



A yellow mummy... What next, a white pontianak?

I thought mummies were reserved for the Egyptian undead only. The other undead guys should be just called zombies. I thought that was the rule. Ah well. Anyways, this movie is horrible. Casting was way off. Chinese girl was cute, probably the only thing that kept the movie entertaining. Heh heh heh…

Ol’ Spiky’s Rating: 1/5 – Effects, been there, done that. Chinese mummy? Right.

Midnight Cock Meat Sandwich Train



In case you were wondering, it's Vinnie Jones. You can't take him seriously after Eurotrip.

I have not seen the trailer. I have not pondered at the poster. I just know Clive Barker’s name was on it, and after what I saw on Undying, I thought this would be tight. But damn it was full of shit. First thing you would notice is that the movie has not been censored like regular gore flicks. You’ll see decapitations in full Technicolor and free-flowing blood. You will see hands wandering to naughty places and it doesn’t happen in the corner of the screen. The most disturbing scene in the movie’s probably the part when the guy cries when his fiancĂ© is stripping for him. And I don’t mean the “THIS IS IT!” kind of crying. It’s just fucked up.

Ol’ Spiky’s Rating: 1/5 – Just because they didn’t censor the good parts.

Clone Wars and The Day The World Stood Still is on it’s way and hopefully they will deliver. Zohan is another idiotic Sandler movie so I’ll probably download it. Peace out y’all.
