Pasta and Birthday Cakes!

Part 1

Last Tuesday, Laura, Wilson, Chia, Kai, Mal, Ann Nee, Cheryl, Jian Leng, Emma, Mel, Laksh and I went to this pasta and fries restaurant which's name I forgot but I exactly know where to have lunch together and also to surprise Emma as it was his birthday. Along with us was Yumi who was part of Emma's birthday surprise but little did Yumi and Emma know that we had a birthday cake for the both of them so it's like a double surprise. Haha.

After we got seated, Yumi soon arrived and surprised Emma. Then we ordered our food and then when our food came we ate our food. Duh, if not, what? Throw them around and start a food fight? Use our food to make a giant Art Attack? Well the food there was good. It's better than what I had imagined because the shop is kinda small and secluded. This restaurant is mostly famous for it's fries and unique sauces served with the fries. There were numerous newspaper articles displayed at the casher. Yeah. It was good. The fries were something I'd like to call, real potatoes, in them. Unlike fries from McDonald's or KFC, these fries were thick and had filling. Potatoes! I had cheddar cheese with my fries and mm mm! It was delicious.

Well after our meal, Cheryl brought out the birthday cake and we sang the birthday song for Emma and Yumi. Oh yeah, did I mention? Yumi's birthday is a few days after Emma's birthday, on Friday which is today. Yeah. A few people who were at the restaurant sang and clapped their hands too. Yay~ Such participation. After that we rushed to Moral class because we were already more than five minutes late. Yumi sneaked into the class and joined us without our lecturer knowing. We had the cake later when we had our break. Haha.

Part 2

Yesterday after 3D Maya Essentials class, Laura, Kai, Nicole Cheryl, Emma, Jian Leng, Laksh, JuEun, Baddy, Enez and I went to Pasta Zanmai in Sunway Pyramid to have lunch together in celebration to Nicole's birthday. At Pasta Zanmai ready and waiting for us was Chia, Wee, Ann Nee, Mal, Wilson and Sim Yen because they were the surprise team who got the birthday cake Nicole is oblivious of and also to reserve seats for all of us. (I have a feeling I missed somebody out... Hmm...)

Well anyway, we all got settled down and ordered our food. Seriously, I was indecisive. There was many delicious looking pastas and Japanese curry rice dishes to choose! I finally decided on this Ebi Ika Cream Pasta (Prawn and Squid) with the help of Laura (with her exceptionally amazing reasoning skills). Chia, Wilson and I teased Kai and Mal while we waited for our food.

Well food arrived and man I tell you. This is gourmet, fit for me, a self-proclaimed gourmet. Yeah. It's awesome. The freshness of every ingredient, the squid, the prawns, the mushrooms! Everything was perfect! I wanted more but my wallet won't allow. After the meal, the waiters at Pasta Zanmai brought out the birthday cake and we sang the birthday song for Nicole. Yay~ After that Mal, Chia, Wee and Ann Nee rushed to class for their 3D Maya Essentials class. The rest of us stayed and had cake. Wilson and Kai dared me to put the whole of my second slice in my mouth and I did it. Hah. I am awesome with my big mouth as always! Okay, having a big mouth is nothing to brag about, moving on.

After a whole lot of chatting we all dispersed home. Kai, Laksh and I went to Vision Art and Kai and I bought light boxes and I got a new stack of animation paper because mine is almost out. Darn all my mistakes. I wasted a lot of paper there.

Well pasta dishes on birthdays with cake in one week. Awesome.

Oh yeah, did I mention? My 3D Maya Essentials lecturer is a cosplayer, quite the famous pro too. Awesome shits huh? Haha. I have a feeling cosplaying will be a lot different if we see her at events. Haha.

Inside The Building, Outside The Cafe

Today was the very first so-called cosplay event for the year 2011. I didn't know the details clearly but I found out that this event is actually the grand opening of a new game shop called Asia Games Channel or AGC.

I went to Ikea first at around 9.30am and had breakfast there with my dad who later left when Yati came to join me. It was 10am at that time so we walked over to e@Curve and got to the game shop and that's where I learned about the event details. Apparently some student from SMKBU(3)'s dad was the manager for this shop. Wow. Now this boy has something to brag about.

Anyway, I met Ming Yang there. He's a lot taller now and he's got his voice cracked. Haha. Anyway, Kuui and Meow soon came along and we chilled around. Yati and I walked around before the event started and we checked out the maid cafe that opened recently, Tenshi no Cafe. The cafe looks like the real thing, a real Japanese maid cafe. Problem is the strict rules and limited seats. I guess it's to avoid maids from getting harassed. It's logical to think that way.

There I met my two juniors back in BU(3) in softball club and Japanese club, Teoh and Edi. My, have they grown up. Edi looks completely different. He's slimmed down and has grown taller. I can still recognise Edi though. He just got taller. Apparently they are still in the softball club and the Japanese club which is great news for me. I hope they can play softball at MSSD for our school this year. Well, they told me about Denise becoming the president for the Japanese club this year. Why! Denise did not tell me about this vital information! Anyway, Denise was cosplaying as Saito Hajime of the Shinsengumi. Haha. Well she did a good job for the costume. Almost perfect. Also, not to forget Wei Jin who was in scouts.

Well the rest of the day was pretty much spent looking around, taking photos (Yeah! I finally have a camera I can use for myself!) and playing Jump! Ultimate Stars. Well I met Jian Leng, Emma, Cheryl, Nick, Yumi and Blackcatz as well. And I sorta made new friends with some friends of Rin's. They cling to me as if I'm some teddy bear. It was so scary when they kept hugging me and poking my face. Waaah... Well one of them speaks pretty fluent Japanese and can sing Hatsune Miku no Shoushitsu -DEAD END-! Awesome!!

Oh yeah. Today I tried out typing internet memes on Scribblenauts and Yati was with me to witness the epic discovery. I spawned Ceiling Cat, Longcat, Tacgnol, O RLY and YA RLY and LOL WUT. Just now I surfed Google and found that there are other internet memes that you can spawn on Scribblenauts! Too bad you can't spawn Shoop Da Whoop. I can't believe you can spawn All Your Base Are Belong To Us and Over 9000. It's just epic! Freaking EPIC!

Then yeah, I found some internet memes along the way like Fuck Yeah Seaking, Stick It In Her Pooper and The Internet Is Leaking. So funny. I love internet memes, thanks to 4Chan but I don't really like 4Chan.

I had Ikea cuffypuffs for lunch and I met up with Wayne. Yeah. Then from there I hanged around outside Tenshi no Cafe until my dad arrived at 3pm. Yeah. Unfortunately for me I couldn't stay longer because I had to go to a New Year dinner with my sister's godmother. Yeah.

The new shop next to 7Eleven, AGC.

Melvin and Kuui. Kuui was doing his usual terrorist cosplay.

Cheryl, Yumi and Blackcatz. I met them outside. Haha.

X-Hoss-Third

Hey, it's been a week already huh. Nothing much happened so I did not really update my blog.

Ken chucked me a bunch of manga to read. Well I'll post some comments after I finish them all. Note that these manga are either quite recent or slowly updated and definitely not completed.

I just finished my line animation. 179 pages and I'm exhausted. God... Things are gonna get harded from now on.

For the past few days it has been cloudy or raining. I can't get a good picture for my Photography assignment. I'm worried. Maybe I should make one later using artificial light.

"Good photos are not taken. Good photos are made."

- David (my Photography lecturer)

I'm starting to try and "make friends" with my markers. Rendering is hard but I'm slowly learning how to render. Just as how Julian, my lecturer and Voon Fei said, put down strokes freely and quickly.

Autodesk Maya is tough but fun. Unfortunately I had to struggle just now because apparently making an antique phone is not easy. All these lofting and planaing to do. Also, Maya lags on my desktop.

I bought a big ass pencil case with Chia, Kai, Wee and Ann Nee at Daiso. I failed to restrict myself from spending my RM50. Guess I have to start all over.

Oh yeah, I was horribly sick the other day. I vomited and had diarrhea and fever. I'm accusing the pieces of pork I had. I should have realise that it went bad when it tasted sour. Anyway, I'm surprised that I recovered my fever in one night. The day I was that sick, it was really scary. I almost fainted (because everything I see went white, my arms and legs went numb and m ears turned cold) and when I was shitting liquids, I sweated as if I had been splashed with water. I'm completely fine now. I just have a smaller appetite and I'm more cautions of the food we have from the caterer.

I finished the main story for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Now I'm playing the bonus stage. The characters in this bonus stage are weird... Well after I finish I'm going to play the second game Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice For All. I'm about to complete Jump! Ultimate Stars. Hmm... I went back to check out my Pokemon in Diamond and Soul Silver. Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time is still fun. I think I should start playing the other games I put in my SD card. Oh how I regret permanently deleting the games I did not want. I should have kept them even though I know I wont play them. It's mixed feelings.

Hey, Happy Birthday Me.

Today I turn 19. Old. Yes. I'm getting old.

Today at college, we get hands on 3D Maya Essential. It really complicated with tonnes of buttons all over the place. I even got lost while my lecturer was telling us what does what but everything went swell. Our assignment was to build a Greek temple. It was fun despite the complicated controls. Well I went bonkers and put a random cubic head with a retarded face in the temple and added some poor little pillars that looked like cannons in it. Haha.

I got down into Jump Ultimate Stars, a game for the Nintendo DS. It's exciting really. I didn't get as frustrated as I would on other games when I lost a few times. Besides Jump Ultimate Stars, another game I got hooked on is Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. To me the game play is new and refreshing. You control a total of four characters, Mario, Luigi, Baby Mario and Baby Luigi. You fight enemies instead of jumping on them and killing them off instantly like in the usual Mario games. It's really nice but I can tell that in the upcoming level's it's gonna be tough. Haha.

Like usual, I got an ice-cream for a birthday cake, Brownies Tiramisu. There was a pinch of wine in it. Haha. The birthday celebration with my family was small and simple and ended as soon as we finished the ice-cream. I'm not complaining really because it's kinda the way I like it.

The First 21 of 2011

QWOP, because I had nothing better to do at 4a.m. in the morning.

I manage to make Qwop run like normal up to 22.4 meters. Yay.

P.S: 2+2=4

P.S.S: 4a.m. Hmm... There's something going on with these numbers...

Hello 2011!

HAPPY

First day of the year 2011, 1/1/11. It's depressing. Everything was kinda going well at first but there were things that pressured me. At Wee's house, we left to have brunch together at a family restaurant. Once again, I did not have enough money to pay for my meal. I had to owe my friends, once again money. Chia and Kai joked about me always having to owe people money but I know that they are telling me to stop having to borrow money. I know that, I hate owing people money but somehow I always don't have enough money.

NEW

Later on, I had to have Kai drive me home because my parents can't get me. It was mentally torturing. Kai had to drive a long way because I live so far away from everyone else. I can tell that he was frustrated and I, full of sorrow and depression. I tried to put on a smile and tell myself it's okay but I can't because I know it's not okay, it never is because I have been always depending on my friends. Helping me all the time. It sucks. I hate it. I don't want to continue be dependant on my friends. So this year, I will change. I don't wanna trouble others no more.

YEAR

Turn of my raison d'etre.
