The Rockstar game

I've been playing this online browser game for awhile now, and it's called The Rockstar Game. It basically you, as a band trying to make it big, or HUGE in the music scene. You start off a lame, talentless musician but with proper training, recording songs, releasing singles and ALBUMS, you will climb up the stairs to SUCCESS!! You also, need to tour, rest when needed and hopefully, break into other countries music scenes!

It based on the points system style game, so all your actions cost you points. Points are given to you each few hours, 3 or 7 points a time, and you cant buy more!! It make the playing field more stable so that newcomers with proper hard playing, can catch up.

Nayagan - Thenpandi Cheemayile

This is an Indian song from one of the greatest tamil movie ever, Nayagan. Nayagan is in the Time Magazine "All-Time 100 Best Films" list, issued in 2005. I was never one to watch Tamil movies, but somehow my dad managed to get me to sit down and watch this with him way back in 1987.

Then, I was still staying in Negeri Sembilan, a state found in Malaysia and I was still in school. We used to rent movies from this VHS rental shop, which was basically a damn hut with a roof on it, and it had the crappiest selection of English movies, but the absolute BEST in Tamil movies. That time, Bollywood was pratically non-existent in Malaysia.

Somehow, thanks to my dad, this was the FIRST tamil movie I watch, and it just blew my mind away. Nayagan gets it inspiration from the Godfather movie, and is changed to reflect the Indian scenario, so it is not a 100% pure copy. There are many differences that make Nayagan an orginal movie on its own.

From the movie, comes the song, Thenpandi Cheemayile on of the saddest songs from Indian movies to date. Below is the lyrics and a basic rough translation,

'Thenpandi cheemayile, therodum veedhiyile
Maan pola vandhavnai yaar adithaaro
Yaar adithaaro, yaar adithaaro...

Valarum piraye theiyadhe
Iniyum azhudhu thembadhe
Azhudha manasu thangadhe
Azhudha manasu thangadhe"

Translated -

"In the southern realm of the Pandiyas
In the streets where chariots race
He was skipping along like a fawn
Who could have hurt him?

O waxing moon, please don't wane
Don't sob your heart out
For your tears will break my heart
For your tears will break my heart"

Read it, and I believe you'll understand why this movie stands out as a great movie.

Sheesh, its 148pm

And I just woke up!

I was put clubbing last night and didnt get in till bout 230AM, and cause I wasnt sleepy, watch a few episodes of Stargate SG1 till bout 450AM before finally hitting the sack.

Damn, I really should NOT be sleeping so late!

Transformers Animated Toys Are Here!!

Oh helly yes!!!

The new line of transformers toys are finally here, after much waiting. The new toy line is from the current transformers anime, called Transformers Animated. The anime started off very well, but as of late, it seems to be slowing down and getting repeative and boring.

ANyways, I bought Optimus Prime (Cybertron mode), Bumblebee, Prowl and Megatron, but as I was short of cash, I put them in layby. I really love this line, as the movie line was a bit of a dissappointment to me. Dont get me wrong, the movie line was unique and refreshing, but they started to sell re-colour and re-packed versions, mean only means one thing: TOO MUCH STOCK to get rid off. And the TF movie line was going on for a damn long time as well.

I still want to get a few more, I hope there's a re-stock soon. I really want to get Starscream and Blitzwing!

Twist of fate

Yes, I have finished all my finals exams for thsi semester, YEAH!!!! Plus, I have gotten recieved my first results already, that I have passed my SHRM unit!!!! No idea on the marks, but my lecturer has confirmed that I have passed. Now the only two left is finance and OB. Thats the good news.

On to the bad news, since I can work full time now, well naturally, I would hope to work the hours that I am looking for (40 hours). Despite hearing that "theres a major lack of workers here, that industries are suffering to find workers" it is still really hard to get a job. Sadly, the reason is one that is old and stupid.

Racist.

The majority claim is we arent, but we are. Most employees want only their own race/colour workers and asians like us are often placed 5 or lower in the chain of consideration, which sucks. ANyway, I still need the hours, and well, here I go searching!

OB2 exam

Ahhhh, my final exam for this semester, OB2 will be held tomorrow. I do so hope I get through this subject as it has been a pain in my backside since this semester started!



Keeping my fingers crossed!!

Mike: A lost friend

I used to be very close to this guy named Mike when I was back in Malaysia. For some reasons, and also my stupidity to believe others I has a massive fight with him, and since havent spoken to him, or any of my malaysian friends for that matter.

I however, still read his blog to check out how he is doing, and well, he is doing great!! For my friend, I really wish to say, CONGRATS man!!! Took you long enuff to get the girl of your dreams!! Dont let her out of sight, cause your soul mate comes around once. I wish you all the happiness and hope you have a great life.

I am just sad that I have lost you as a friend, and no apologies will ever make up for it. I do miss you man, I miss it all.

Whats done is done.

Second Final:Finished!

Finished my SHRM3 exam today, which means I have only one more left. and its "that subject". The one taught by the damn wicked witch of tai. I still cant believe that I am paying Aud 2000 fore the damn unit, and get lecturer who cant speak english, cant control the class (scared of the white folks) cant teach for jack's sake, and then they expect us students to pass with high and mighty colours.

HOW??

Anyhows, my SHRM exam went ok, with me answering all the four questions. I am a bit unhappy that my last question only took up 1 and half pages, but I was brain dead! I just need 11 more marks to pass, so cross fingers!!

Me can't wait for this!!

One down, Two to go!!

I have finished my Finance exam today, so thats one I can cross off my list.

I only have to look foward to SHRM3 and OB2, and while I am pretty confident of SHRM3, and I am a wee bit worried bout my OB2.

You see, the lecturer is really biased, and she has constantly pushed my marks down whenever she can. This despite the fact I did the entire group project all ALONE. Yup, you read it right, people in a group, and only one poor schumck did the work.

Yes, I was the damn schumck.

Gawd, I hate the damn OB2 class.

Tweaking Here and There

I like a kid who has just gotten a new toy.

I've been messing around with my blog and seeing what happens.

I've change the colours, add a few other stuff such as links, and logos.

Trying to see what else I can change or add on.

Exam: Tomorrow!!

My finance final exam is tomorrow, and I am as ready as I will ever be. Just got to get my formula sheet ready, and thats it. Time really flies nowdays, and in another week, I would finish this semester.

A month off, and back again to uni. I just hope that I get another job within the month to keep me busy, and of course, earn some more cash!!!!

Knight Rider 2008 (Movie)

Just download and watched the brand new Knight Rider 2 hour one off pilot/movie, and I gotta say, WOW!

Great storyline, damn good looking NEW KITT in the body of a 2008 Ford Mustang GT500KR.

Some extra tit-bits on KITT -

- KITT can average a speed of 191 mph (307 km/h)
- Althought KITT's main power source is solar base, it also uses gasoline, with 91% of the energy being recycled, it averages 167 mpg.
- 550 horsepower solar hybrid engine.
- Metallic paint with nanotech enhanced camouflage including morphing License Plate.
- Self-regeneration and damage repair.

On another note, in the pilot, it is shown that if KITT is deactivated, the self-regeneration mechanism becomes inactive, making it as vulnerable as an ordinary car!!

Mobile Suit Gundam 00

Gundam 00 is the latest instalment in the Sunrise's long running Gundam franchise and personally, I consider it as one of the best gundam series up to date.

Gundam 00 will consist of 2 seasons, with the first season just ending on 29th March 2008 with 25 episodes and the second season starting up sometime in October later this year.The settings for Gundam 00, is that fossil fuels have become exhausted, which lead to mankind looking towards the sun (solar) as new main source of fuel. Hence three orbital elevators have been built, with each one belowing on one of three main powers (Union, Human Reform League and Advanced European Union) in the new world.

However, due to the lack of fuel, and the three main powers controlling the supply, numerous wars have began. Wars for fuel sources and wars started by either one of the three to conquer other countries spread through out the world. This is were, Gundam 00 starts. It introduces a four party to the mix, called Celestial Being which seeks to end all wars through Arm Interventions. It is Celestial Being, that carries all Four Gundams featured in Gundam 00.

The four Gundams are Exia GN001 (Melee, Sword expert), Dynames GN002 (Guns, Sniper expert), Kyrios GN003(Flight,Speed,Bombardment) and Virtue GN005 (Mid Range Weapons, High Powered Beam Weapons). Also, note that, missing from the line up is GN004, which was later shown in the series, to be another Gundam, hidden within Gundam Virtue itself.

Virtue, under duress, can purge it's armor, and undergoes a system change, to become GN004 Nadleeh. Nadleeh carries with it a very unique ability, which causes any other mobile suits in the vicinity while the system is activated are able to be controlled and completely shutdown as long as they are equipped with Veda OSes.

Gundam 00, I would give it a 9 out 10. Highly recommended as the storyline is great, plus the graphics are really top notch.

Me.Sleepy.

Had to wake up really early for my tuition class, and I had only gotten some 3 hours of sleep, so I am really beat.

Plus, also to note, I havent been posting alot. In fact, this is the third post thus far. I did plan to publish one everyday, but with everything happenning, and my gawd forgetfulness, I am surprise I havent completely forgotten bout this blog all together!!

HA! The hair cut experince from hell!!

Yes, I finally went and got a hair cut.

And it hurt.

The damn stylist was really rough, and every single time she used the comb or siscors, it cut into my scalp and it freaking hurt as!! It was felt like someone with really sharp finger nails, just poking you, so try it out for a whole 34 minutes and see if hurts.

And what did I pay for this wonderful treatment?

$22.50....what a rip off.


sheesshhh....

Back. Finally.

I have returned.

I had deleted everything in the past, and it took a year or more to come to the decision of re-starting a new blog.

The old one was getting dying, and instead of letting it die a slow painful death, I ended it. Swiftly.

Thats that.
