In The Spirit Of 'Idol'...

Well, it's that time of the year again; another season of American Idol. Hollywood week is over, and the finalist will now compete to be the next big thing. In the spirit of celebrating the upcoming eighth season, I brought you...one of the funniest 'Idol' videos I've ever watched. This is from 'Bulgarian Idol'. Enjoy:)

ACD As It Happens...

0005hrs: I went to bed after a short revision, hoping that I could get a good night's sleep

0215hrs: I woke up. I was like WTF? baru pukul 2?

0430hrs: I woke up again. Whoaa, this ACD thing really messed up my sleep! dammit!!

0550hrs: Woke up 30 mins earlier than I should. Went straight to the bathroom (typical pre-assessment/exams nervous breakdown routine). After the morning bath, went for another short revision (minus the TV!)

0810hrs: Arrived at office. Went straight to print out the self-assessment forms (which in the end are not used...crap..)

1030hrs: When to the 'supposed' assessment venue. Turned out to be a different room (2 rooms with similar names)...double dammit!

1055hrs: Arrived at the correct venue with 5 minutes to spare for extra oxygen to stimulate those brain neurons.

1100hrs: Let the humiliation and embarrassment attack begins! Two assessors were there, an SM of Exploration Division, and a maintenance manager. Judging by the words coming out of their mouth, they sure are experts in their field. I was there for like 2 1/2 hours, and there are plenty of emmmm, hmmmm, ahhhh...alamak I forgot moments. But it didnt turned out ALL bad! There are questions which I managed to answer (or rather respond and give input to). And the assessors are not really freaky, they have the tendency to guide me to the right answer to their questions. Let's not forget that there are finger foods and fruits served, and they were eating while asking me questions (I just don't have the appetite as they are having). Time really does fly slowly during that moment.

1320hrs: At last, I'm done! banyak jugak kena fire ngan assessor, soalan maut2. And in the end I was like, ahhh let's think about it later...What a relief, it feels like some really heavy burden has just been released from my shoulders, hahaha...But i heard that 2 1/2 hours was not so bad (or maybe it's because I can't answer a lot that the session was shorter). I was informed that there are sessions which lasted up to 4 hours (3 hour typically). And suddenly it came to me, 'Actually how well did I do just now eh?' Well, we'll see the results in a week's time, perhaps?

Till the next post...

Valentine's Gift Idea: A Lambo Heels?


Haha, check this out. This was taken from Zero To Hundred website of what is later found as a mock advertisement (even I actually believed that it was real at first!)

Own several Lamborghini’s? Can’t get enough of the Italian raging bull? Did you also happen to recently piss off one of your many mistresses? Then here’s your chance to make it up to her this Valentine’s by donning her in one of these seriously hot Lamborghini high heels. That’s right, high f’in heels.

But here’s the catch, there are some things that money just can’t buy and this is sadly one of them. Enterprising CGSociety member, Tim Cooper, created these ultra-fine (and likely ultra-lightweight) white and carbon fiber Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera high heels using a pair of his wife’s heels and hundreds of Gallardo images from around the ‘net. He modeled and rendered them in Modo and added the smoke and text in Photoshop for this mock advertisement.

We are sorry if you jumped into you Lambo and sped off in search of these heels but we’re hoping you didn’t mention anything or show this to your mistress because then, you’d really have to make it up to her once she finds out its not available. As for these heels, chances are, you might just find a pair at selected stores in a few months time. Ferrari to follow suit with ultra red hot heels? Wait and see.

Dammit! I am supposed to do my final study for tomorrow's ACD...I'm gonna be screwed. 2 days of late nights, when the heck am I supposed to study...arghhhhh screw it ACD! I'll just answer whatever I can...details to be posted tomorrow...

Seen And Heard: Slumdog Millionaire

For the past few weeks it has been the awards buzz; there was the Golden Globe Awards and Screen Actors Guild. Apart from seeing the people in gorgeous couture, the awards show is about seeing the best movies. One of the nominated movies for best picture (and I think it won!) was this film called Slumdog Millionaire. It's basically a mid-budget film shot mostly in India, and the story is about a boy who becomes a contestant of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire'. He then got arrested under the suspicion of cheating due to his ability to answer most of the questions. His life story was then unfold in the movie. Can't reveal much as that would be a spoiler. But I'm surprised to find out that it was a wonderful movie! It's funny, sad, and entertaining at the same time. Definitely one of the must-see movies this year. Trailers can be watched at Apple's trailer site The next movie on my list is The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, another Best Picture nominee, which I think will be released sometime mid or late February. Stay tune for my post!

New Honda City vs. Peugeot 308: And The Winner Is...

I finally managed to get my ass up to the Peugeot showroom in TTDI Plaza. And there they were; the two hot French chicks; the 308VTi and 308 Turbo. Without any hesitation, I jumped straight into her awesome body (don't start thinking pervy stuff eh). Yadaa yadaa yadaa...the interior was as expected for a continental car; polished, refined, sturdy. You can't help it but to like it. The exterior; what can I say...In fact, what do you say when cross some hot chick...Woww, enough said, haha...

Anyway, off to the test drive. I've tested the Turbo version one (coz' according to my dad, it's not worth testing the VTi due to its similarity with the Honda City). The test route was rather a long one (which is good!) and I started revving it hard up to 140km/h and 5000rpm, twitching around the steering wheel and the gearing systems...The Turbo version, honestly speaking...does not dissappoint at all! It is car to be enjoyed. I'm not an expert on cars, by I do feel the greatness and the rush of enjoyment upon driving it.

Now comes the interesting bit; which do I choose? After some deliberation and deep thoughts...I chose the Honda. There are a few factors. Reasons being 1) It's sub 100K price (don't think I wanna start paying big bucks for a first car 2) The new City is indeed a nice looking car with decent features 3) Unknown aspects of the maintenance, reliability, workmanship of Naza 4) My car is to be made available during this month (woohoo!). But (there's a but) I would strongly recommend the Turbo version to all of you guys out there who's looking for a car for a fun driving. That Mini Cooper powerplant inside the sexy Lion will not let you down...

And so, I'm done..the 308 is now out of my system (or is it?). I'm now waiting eagerly for my City...

One After The Other...

How's it going people? I've been lil' bit occupied these 2 days. Arrived in KL at about 9pm last night. Relatives from Kelantan are here for a few days. We went for dinner, and head to Abe Ja's house in Damansara Damai for a visit. Enyel was not feeling well (which explains his lack of energy to amuse people)

Then this morning, we went to 1 Utama. I have my own agenda going there. I am gonna shoe-shop! I have decided that I will make this year a start on the healthy lifestyle. And so, I've decided to start jogging during the weekends (or whenever I'm free). So, headed to Nike. Been a fanatic and fanboy of Nike products since like forever (sorry Adidas, but you kinda suck), got myself the Lunar Trainer running shoes (costed me RM15 shy of RM400), and a 3/4 Nike Fit pants. I went back home, feeling so bersemangat to start my jogging quest. Then at about 5ish, went to sent my relatives to LCCT. On my way back, went for a short stop at Naza Peugeot's showroom in TTDI Plaza. The 308's are there (VTi and Turbo) waiting to be tested. I looked at my watch; it's already 7pm. Dammit! I'll make time to come to test the French hottie tomorrow then.

Indeed I am in a dilemma. I've booked the new Honda City, and now the French hottie caught my attention. To make things 'interesting', the SA Honda all of a sudden called me. That damn bugger! macam tau2 pulak aku nak usha Peugeot..Anyway, I didn't answer his call, he left a message; my car should be available by the end of the month. I can't give my final answer till I have tested the 308. Sexy body, a powerplant similarly used by the MINI Cooper, continental interior setup, what's not to like? Well, we'll find out tomorrow. Honda or Peugeot? Japanese or French chick? Decisions, decisions, decisions...

Owh, before I forget..the acts to perform at Sunburst KL 2009 has been announced. Looking at the lists, honestly speaking, the line-ups kinda suck! Big time! Who the fuck is gonna pay 200ish to watch some local bands (which we can watch live at Laundry during Campur Chart). And only one international act! (what the fuck is wrong with you Pinapple Concerts!) You brought Incubus, John Legend and many more acts last year. I expected more from you guys! And on top of that, of all the international acts, you brought N.E.R.D? What a disappointment..I have lost my mood to watch the performances. Unless they are planning to announce more later (which is happen to be my sister, Yaya's theory - they will announce the great acts later, so that the public will end up buying the more expensive tickets to watch it), I'm not gonna go! Seriously, I mean it.

Alrighty then, I'm off. Damn, I'm supposed to do a little studying today. Satu hapak pun tak baca, hahaha...oyasumi nasai

I So Wanna Punch Someone In The Face...That Fucking Retard!


My header caught your attention, eh? Hehe, fortunately it's not you, nor is anybody else (well, maybe not, I have someone who I wanna punch in the face..you'll understand what I meant in the next few sentences). I was on my way back from office and I tuned in to Fly FM's Rush Hour. Jules and Prem suddenly brought up this website 'People Who Deserve It'. Basically it's a website that lists down kinds of people that you encounter in your life that sometimes you think 'This fella deserves a good punch in the face'. Among my favourites are (which I have personally encountered in my life):
  1. The Guy Who Shits In Toilets Without Flushing (not to mention Losers Who Pisses On Toilet Seat) (gross, enough said)
  2. Movie Seat Kicker
  3. Ringtone DJ (those arseholes playing ringtones like there's nothing else to do)
  4. The 'Reply All' Guy (annoying office colleagues who simply reply all or forward anything)
  5. Two-Park Parker (drivers who passed their driving tests, yet are dumb enough to park in between two parking spots)
I've also posted a link in my 'interesting' section. So who do you wanna punch in the face?
