EDIT: bought it

i don't do gigs

despite the whole arashi thing, i do listen to the local music scene (indie?underground?whatever u called it). tapi beselah, aku slalu dgar aje, tak kenal pun meka (i failed at songname/lyric/singerorbandname.haha ;D).

Oleh kerna nak ke terengganu from ahad-kamis ni, terpaksa aku g dw mp3 banyak2 tok menghilangkan kebuhsanan kuuu (nak carik cd meka sebenaqnya. slalunya dgar kat radio aje, tapi rasanya hp xdapat coverage).

Camana aku ley terjebak dalam ni? sbb rumate aku kat upm. heh... antara benda yg paling melekat waktu tu adalah acab,gerhana ska cinta and soad(ok,this one out of scope). Bila "the new authentic" kuar aje, my rumate g bli kaset. ktrg siap lepak bilik stella sbb nak tompang guna radio dia. membuat penganalisaan. haha...those are the days...

sekarang, i'm hooked on pesawat. silalah ke myspace meka (tgk kat sidebar aku) and check out mirage ^^

I LOVETH WASABI \(^O^)/

have you ever wonder what exactly is wasabi?
it's actually a vegetable! it's a japanese horseradish. ianya tumbuh below ground.

what it looks like in real life. it's expensive stuff people...

grate it

then eat it (^^,)

or brush ur teeth using it...kidding! when sold, it usually comes in 2 condition: paste (as pic) or powder

some of its benefits are:

(1) sebagai anti-biotic/anti-parasit. Raw fish could be the source of parasites and bacteria, that's y digalakkan makan ngan wasabi supaya elak food poisoning.

(2) halang blood clot

(3) prevent tooth decay

(4) support detoxification

(5) reduce cancer risk by immune system to discard mutagenic cells. apeke ntah maksudnya

(6) effective against asthma

i LOOOVEEE wasabi peas. tq to tey for introducing it to me!




dan...kalau aku makan kat sushi king...

wasabi

moar wasabi

and moaaaarrrrrr XD!!! (comparison between wawa's and my wasabi intake)

#however, wasabi yang slalu kita makan kat kdai sushi tuh bukannya wasabi yg sebenar. it more of a combination of: horseradish, mustard, a starchy binder, and coloring

#resources: here, here, and here

pulau oh pulau

ok. i'm addicted to travelling. and snorkeling.
terasa cam terpanggil giler tok pergi pulau. huhu...

oleh itu, i'm offering myself (heh) to organize a trip to pulau.
tapi, which one do you want to go to? redang atau perhentian?
best time to go is in March-September. Tapi aku boleh check ngan org kat sana dulu...Rega estimation around RM400++ (termasuk tiket bas)


Pulau Perhentian

waktu g perhentian dlu aku g perhentian besar. dok kat fauna chalet if not mistaken.

on Pulau Perhentian Besar (in specific: Pantai Teluk Dalam)
1-kecik aje tempatnya. at a small teluk. macam kat kampung2.
2-tenang. orang tak ramai sgt
3-air tak sejernih redang
4-pantai banyak batu
5-pantai ada sampah2 gak
6-ada air mata air!!! (tapi kau kene naik bot pegila..)
7-kedai souvenir 2 buah aje. tu pun kat flora bay resort and kat arwana (barang mahal giler!)

about fauna chalet:
-simple. mudah.
-makan sedap
-instructor snorkeling OK. Snorkeling dibawa ke Perhentian-Redang-LangTengah. 3 pulau nih, tapi banyak kali terjun dalam laut snorkelling-then naik bot balik. penat giler~~~
-boleh jalan2 kat chalet lain2 kat situ seperti flora bay resort atau arwana resort.

Pulau Redang

on pulau redang (well, tempat yg aku landing waktu wat snorkeling)
1-luas.
2-ramai manusia. more crowded. kalau malam, pantai dia agak 'bebas'
3-air memang jernih abes. kau bley tgk ikan renang2 lagih. heh
4-tgk kawasan, ada yg bahgian batu, tapi banyak memang pasir ajela
5-boleh tahan bersih
6-ada air laut?
7-banyak kedai souvenir.banyak kedai.

election result here

kept up with the live coverage this morning thru usatoday coveritlive.
Result kuar dalam kol 12tgh hari waktu malaysia. nih aku ada copy out the live coverage:

4:41	Welcome. Watch for some fodder from early exit polls after 5 p.m. ET.

5:10	First "exit poll" fodder: Economy was No. 1 on voters' minds.

5:33	As it attempted to land today in Albuquerque, Republican presidential nominee John McCain's jet had to abort the approach because of traffic on the runway, the Chicago Tribune's The Swamp blog reports.

5:46	USA Today On Politics: More from the early exit poll results: 62% said they decided whether to support Democrat Barack Obama or Republican John McCain sometime before September. Of the rest, just 6% made up their minds in the last week.

6:04

USA Today On Politics: Taxes will rise whether the next president is Republican John McCain or Democrat Barack Obama, most of the voters surveyed earlier today as they left voting places told pollsters. According to the early "exit polls," which a news media consortium commissioned and which USA TODAY has purchased information from: • 70% said taxes will go up if Obama is elected. • 61% said taxes will go up if McCain is elected.

6:41	USA Today On Politics: 7 p.m. ET is fast approaching. That means the closing of polls in two key states: Virginia and Indiana.

6:43	On Deadline: If you're anxious, check out the real-time results from Indiana and Kentucky.

7:04	USA Today On Politics: Associated Press: Democrat Barack Obama has won Vermont and its 3 electoral votes; Republican John McCain has won Kentucky and its 8 electoral votes.

7:13	USA Today On Politics: Coming up at 7:30 p.m. ET: Polls close in North Carolina, Ohio and West Virginia.

7:32	USA Today On Politics: William Ayers has told The Washington Post he isn't Obama's pal.

7:33	USA Today On Politics: It's too early to "call" Ohio and North Carolina, the cable news networks say.

7:36	USA Today On Politics: The AP says West Virginia isn't ready to be "called" either.

7:52	USA Today On Politics: Four major battleground states are among those due to close their polls at 8 p.m. ET: Florida, Missouri, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania.

7:55	USA Today On Politics: McCain told reporters earlier that "we've had a great ride."

7:57	On Deadline: McCain may have won Kentucky, but the outcome of the contest for that state's Senate seat remains uncertain. Right now, with 30% of precincts reporting, the state says Sen. Mitch McConnell, the GOP leader, is locked in a tight race with Democrat Bruce Lunsford.

8:09	USA Today On Politics: Seven states awarded to Obama; 3 to McCain. Current electoral vote count: Obama, 77; McCain 34. It takes 270 to become president..

8:15	USA Today On Politics: Obama won Pennsylvania, according to ABC and NBC.

8:18	USA Today On Politics: Pennsylvania would give Obama another 21 electoral votes.

8:28

USA Today On Politics: The state that had been Republican John McCain's lucky charm has gone against him. New Hampshire and its 4 electoral votes are going to Democrat Barack Obama, the Associated Press just declared. Obama's current electoral count: 81, to McCAin's 34. It takes 270 to become president.

8:33	USA Today On Politics: CBS and Fox now also say Obama won Pennsylvania.

8:57	USA Today On Politics: Obama now has 103 electoral votes, AP says.

9:06	USA Today On Politics: Michigan, New York, Rhode Island, Wisconsin and their combined 62 electoral votes belong to Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, the Associated Press just declared.

9:10	USA Today On Politics: AP says: Minnesota goes to Obama; Wyoming goes to McCain.

9:21	USA Today On Politics: Add 15 Electoral College votes to Republican John McCain's win column. The Associated Press says he won today in Alabama and Arkansas. That puts McCain at 52 electoral votes to Democrat Barack Obama's 175. It takes 270 to win the White House.

9:28	USA Today On Politics: Democrat Barack Obama won the crucial state of Ohio and its 20 electoral votes, the Fox News Network and NBC News have declared. If that turns out to be right, Obama would have 195 Electoral College votes -- just 75 less than needed to become president.

9:46	USA Today On Politics: AP agrees: Obama won Ohio. He's got 195 electoral votes. McCain has 70.

Of the states where voting is over and we don't think we know what has happened, the three big ones are Florida (27 electoral votes), North Carolina (15) and Virginia (13). That's 55 votes. At 11 p.m. ET, there's a huge cache of electoral votes at stake. The states where polls close that hour include California (55 electoral votes), Washington (11) and Oregon (7).

10:44

11:26

11:29

USA Today On Politics: "Today, I was a candidate for the highest office in the country I love so much," McCain says. "And tonight I remain her servant. That is blessing enough for anyone."

11:58

On Deadline: President Bush has spoken with both candidates. "You are about to go on one of the great journeys of life," he told Obama. "Congratulations and go enjoy yourself."

12:09

12:15

USA Today On Politics: Obama's address, as prepared for delivery, is now posted here.

12:30

USA Today On Politics: At the end, Obama said: "This is our moment. This is our time – to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth – that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can’t, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people:. "Yes We Can. Thank you, God bless you, and may God Bless the United States of America."

us election 2008

it's around 7.30am~10.30am in the us rite now. the us election have started.watching the cbs morning news...tapi xlarat, nak tido daaah~~~

nak ke tak nak, whatever happens there will/may affect us here.
catch the updates here:

usa today
huffington post
cbs news

in case you're not sure:
the democrats (blue) - Obama/Biden
the republicans (red) - McCain/Palin

have you ever shed a tear for your country?

was reading something which hurts. really hurts.

aku penah cakap kat sini how we as malaysia could've been really great.
but where are we right now? nowhere near what we could've been.
aku tak suka bila political people keep saying that "we're good, we're not affected by the economic wave, we're this we're that" bila sebenarnya its not like dat. why can't people be honest around this country? tak boleh ke kita cakap yg "yes, we may/will be affected by this economic wave, but the gov have recognize the steps that we as a country should take together to overcome this". is it so hard to admit that we have flaws and that we should work together? dont lie to people too much. they'll lose their confidence in you. you and your hunger for money and power.

i stand by my opinion. that there was never any differences set for people of different races. what differ us is our belief. you can expect me to say that, yes, i do think that us malays shouldn't have bumi status. malays aren't even bumi's in the first place. are we? aren't the original bumi's are the orang asli ? that without the benefit we'll be more competitive. we'll step up to the challenges risen. we'll be tougher. that is if we take it in a positive light. maybe i'm not one to say this after reaping bumi's benefits all these years...and i don't even know what i'm doing here in the gov. i see things which i don't even approve here...

i hate the fact that more and more malay youngster are getting involve in racing,dadah, lepak'ing...don't you know that the country's economy are in the hands of other people? we can be one of them too. it's time for us to step up. for me to step up. gather my act. face the harsh truth of reality.

hanadan final

weekend come and goes

went to catch hanadan final at tgv klcc. tried to find a seat as far as i could from cik kak eross and encik tunang dia. haha. (ignore the fact that i'm munching away on their popcorn ;D) eross entry here!

regarding the movie. *spoilers ahead*. went to watch it more as it's the final continuity of the hanadan installment rather than as a jun/arashi fan. the moment the tiara is shown, we knew that there's going to be 4 main location in the movie: us-hong kong-south east asia island-something2idontremember(not exactly a location). it had some of it's 'unbelievable' scenes. there's no way you could jump down on a helicopter and successfully hang on the heli foot(or whatever its called) , you should be chopped to death! and i never knew that we could punch a bear and get away unscathed!. and there's no way a plane can land on that island (unless of course they touched down at an airport first, then got transported thru land and water before dumped on the island. unconcious throughout the ordeal).tsktsk.but then again, movies aren't made to make sense. still,it have its hilarious (the vegas motel) and tooth-ache sweet moments. and i love the japan location after they were saved from the island. it's gorgeous. but personally, for me, the movie is a bit too long. when they're still in us, i'm already counting the time for it to get to the island.i'd rather they made it a series than a film. but then again, i haf to say...it's very satisfying to hear 'one love' thru the cinema's speaker ^^

even before the movie started i've already recognized some arashi fans there. those pointing at the huge promo stills outside(but in the end, it's only us who took piccies with it) and those in purple. and sure enough you can hear people squealing over the first glimpse of jun on screen. the first time he spoke on screen. and when there's up-close on jun. and when jun is nekkid above the waist. it's fine the first few times, but as it goes on, it gets on your nerve a bit...

so, if you love hana yori dango the series, go catch the final at the cinema! (with english subs)
tgv-KLCC, sunway
cathay-the curve

finally, found this! oh man...but i haven't even finished my kite runner!
