No update

For Those of you who really DO read what I post here... Sorry because there hasn't been any recent update. Reason, because I'm kinda stuck lately with all kinds of stuff, since I just got back to my hometown, and now I'm busy getting ready to go back to miri. And on the other hand, not much has happened lately, so theres nothing much worth mentioning.


So, will update as soon as I get the mood and some interesting stuff to post about.

Sorry again for the wait.

Curtin Villa Massacre

"Kill or BE Killed..."


That was the very thought in my mind when I saw those infinite numbers of them storming towards us.... This was it... the fight for our lives... Kill or Be Killed....




Hmm, well, you might think it sounds like a quote from a movie or something, but THIS, is reality.... and is what brought their never ending numbers to the very end(at least for today).




Still wondering who they are?? Well, wonder no more, for I shall enlighten you now with my great expanse of knowledge...

Figure 1. Mosquito


Haha, sorry, maybe it wasn't what you were guessing.... But "Massacre" is definitely right.... you'll find out why in a couple of minutes.


To start off, these guys are pretty much one of the most common thing you can find in curtin, or miri to be exact. They come in a wide range of sizes, from transparent ones sticking to the wall, all the way up to 1 (one) Centimeter long ones filled with blood (suck from your very own body). And the worst part about them are..... they don't come in 1, or 2, even 3 of them..... but instead, they come in TENS and HUNDREDS...... okay, you may think that I'm exaggerating... but you'll be stupefied in a minute....

If you've reached a limit where theres nothing else to do, there ALWAYS is this last one thing to do. Mosquito killing. Their never ending stream of mosquito resource (adapted from Human resource) gives you more than enough to challenge yourself to kill as many as possible.... NOW, you can throw away those fancy First Person Shooter games like Rainbow Six, Call of Duty, Crisis, Counter-Strike, and start playing "Mossy Massacre".


To give you a clue of what the 'game' is like, here's some screenshots:

Figure 2. Bare hand killings of our deadly, cunning and vicious
mossy enemies.

Figure 3. A closer look at our freshly slapped mossies.


Figure 4. A top view of the massacre scene. Casualties on this day
soared up to numbers more than hundreds....
excluding corpes that have been squished, squashed,
flattened, or distorted beyond recognition.
(you can count them if you don't believe me, haha)
Figure 4. Kind worker ant friends clean up the mess you make,
which is the best part of this game, no mess, no fuss.



Besides using 'Bare-Hand' killing methods, the 'Mos-kill swatter', or 'Lure with own body' method to exterminate of your unwanted enemies.... There are many other ways of taking care of mossies.


Figure 5. Just METERS away from the 1st scene, another massacre happens,
but this time using high tech super-weapon, which can be obtained
after successfully achieving level 1's target: killing 100 mossies.
Figure 6. A closer look at the mossies killed by special weapons unlocked
by clearing previous stages. The weapon used in this stage is known as
"Ridsect - Power Blast".



Besides the "Ridsect - Power Blast" which takes out TONNES of mosquitoes within seconds of it's deployment, special defence weapons such as the "Mosiguard" and "Moss-away" are also available and can prevent you from taking too much damage from mossies. However, beware for damage from mossies: may result in constant itch for days and swelling around area of damage.



*Warning: Please do not try to copy any action in this game. Failure to follow instructions may lead to harmful or fatal injuries. I shall not be held responsible in any case whatsoever that has relation to 'Mossy Massacre'

Live to Eat or Eat to Live...?

Live to Eat or Eat to Live?, this question has been a part of my life for quite a long time....


Like most of you, I do enjoy eating.... in fact, sometimes, I enjoy it a LOT! especially sometimes when I'm in the mood, I like to go to those 'all-you-can-eat' buffets and load your plate with all kinds of multi-coloured, multi-textured, and multi-flavoured dishes..... For now, I think the food that I like the most is still western food... Ranging from Burgers~~ all the way to Steaks.....

I used to.... Live to Eat....


But lately, wondering "What to eat?" has become quite an issue in my daily life.... Of course, over here, theres the canteen where we can have our breakfast and Lunch, from Mondays till Saturdays... uninterrupted (I hope). But EVERY afternoon, the same question comes back to haunt us all..... "What do we eat tonight??"

This question has become so important that it's now getting asked earlier and earlier in the day.... sometimes even turning into the FIRST question we get when meeting each other.

And well, turns out that we always manage to find dinner.... for at least...... Monday till Friday.....

An example:

Figure 1, Our homecooked food...


At the very least, we've got pretty "good" cooks at cooking our own food, and we've got quite a variety in our menu (with raw, half-cooked, over-cooked, and even burnt), hehe...


Figure 2,
My Trainee wondering
whether the chicken
is cooked

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

However........ when Saturday and Sunday comes......................



Figure 3, My Weekend Survival Supplies

Thats........ what gets me through my weekends..... Eating to Live......

Hmm..... now, I wonder what I'll be having for dinner tomorrow....
