Hallo...
Assalamualaikum & good day everybody!
Another one bites the dust...
I can’t believe it!!! Macam baru je semalam Eddie Guerrero tinggalkan kita.
The full news here :(
And if it’s true, RIP, the Mighty Toothless Wonder.
PS: I’ve heard about the whole McMahon explosion (and I hoped he died, heh, but then nanti WWE takde boss la pulak). Gimmick? Hmm…
Stop posting spoilers!!!
Semalam masa tengah browse thru my friends page kat LJ, secara tak sengaja aku terrrrrbaca spoilers untuk Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! Alamak!!!! Memang takleh nak avoid, sebab bebudak gila ni tulis komen guna font size 26 dan ada tu, siap ada blinking lagi! Hampeh. Sekarang aku dah tau siapa mati (some girl from Gryffindor ~ bukan Ginny, bukan Tonks, bukan Angelina Johnson, *arrrggghh! Tensionnya!!!* and a teacher too ~ bukan tenaga pengajar Care for Magical Creatures, bukan Herbalogist, bukan Transfiguration, bukan!!!!!!!!!!) dan siapa akan terus hidup *cough*horses*cough*.
*Sobbed*. Is this the end, JK Rowling ? :( Pray tell me because I can’t see where you’re heading to.
The Lost Room : HALP!
My download finished after almost one week! Dan semalam, aku menonton mini-siri ni secara marathon (semuanya ada tiga episod, setiap episod lebih kurang satu jam setengah). Dan hell, aku tak pernah rasa se-excited ni! Especially sekarang di mana semua siri kegemaran aku tengah hiatus (Heroes) dan ada yang dalam proses penggambaran (Dexter), so it’s very refreshing to see something along the same genre. And thanks a lot to Gordon for recommending this series to me :)
So, siri ni pasal apa?
Hmm… kalau Heroes berkisar tentang ordinary PEOPLE with extraordinary abilities, TLR pula adalah kisah objek2 biasa yang mempunyai kuasa luar biasa. Contohnya, sikat rambut yang boleh menghentikan masa selama beberapa saat, tiket bas yang boleh menghantar manusia (secara teleport) ke Hell (well, not technically hell, tapi sebuah kawasan berhampiran New Mexico) atau pen yang boleh mengeluarkan kuasa mikrowave. Kisahnya, tentang seorang detektif, Joe Miller (lakonan Peter Krause), yang secara tak sengaja terjumpa sebatang kunci ajaib yang mana si pemilik dapat pergi ke mana sahaja yang dia mahu, hanya dengan membuka sebarang pintu dengan kunci tersebut. Dan kunci itu juga boleh membuka sebuah bilik motel yang agak seedy dan misteri, di mana secara nyata, bilik ini tidak wujud (we’re talking about alternate universe and somewhat like time travel here), dan berbagai peristiwa pelik berlaku dalam bilik tersebut. Pada suatu hari, anak perempuan Joe, secara tidak sengaja telah termasuk ke dalam bilik ni dan hilang, dan Joe terpaksa membongkar rahsia di sebalik bilik rahsia ini dan barang2 lain yang menjadi rebutan antara sect2 yang mahukannya untuk tujuan2 tertentu (The Collectors, The Legion dan The Order of the Reunification). Haha! Macam tau2 je aku suka benda2 gini! (I mean, underground sects macam dalam The DaVinci Code, where we’re brought into the world of The Priory of Psion, the Illuminati, and such).
My dear readers, tell me if you’ve watched this series, so that we can have a discussion about the plot, the characters and such. Tak best la kalau aku dok syok sendiri sensorang :P
And, oh, if I were a character from this series, I’d choose to be Suzi Kang (played by the funny lady, Margaret Cho), because she makes a lot of dough just by selling information to those who seeks to find the Objects.
“Dude, if you’re gonna theorize, I’m gonna charge you another grand”. Whoa!
The Official Site and the Wikipedia site.
Aaand, I found this link too, tentang age of consent (for having sex), in different countries. Betul ke Malaysia punya macam tu? Anyone care to explain this to me?
Nay for homosexuals, but yay for lesbians? Wtf?
Because I love blood suckers and such…
The Vampire Name Generator

The Great Archives Record: This one has had a hard life, has worked and suffered and is now free.
Get yours here, minions, and thanks a lot to my LJ friend, allboyfrottage for teh link :)
And to all fans of Serenity/ Firefly and her shiny crew…
Happy Belated Browncoats Day!
And happy birthday to the Grand Daddy of Firefly ~ Joss Whedon, on the 23rd June.
Can’t stop the signal, Mal.
Sigh. As much as I’m thrilled with the action of Jericho’s fans, I, for one think that Joss tak perlu sambung siri ni. I mean, with two of the main characters dead, how are supposed to enjoy the show then? And River is no longer 17. Kaylee dan Simon dah meluahkan perasaan masing2. Habis tu, apa lagi yang tinggal untuk Mal dan krew2 nya? Inara? Hmmm...
Later people.

Mah Fave Song, Let Me Show You It :)
My Current Fave
Pernah tak korang rasa, suka sangat2 dengan satu lagu tu, you can listen to it over and over again without feeling bored? You feel like the writer of the song is such a fuckin genius to come up with such great melodies and the combination of the singer, the guitarist, the bassist and the drummer, they just clicked? And you can listen to that song just for the drumming, the guitar parts and at the same time, rummaging thru youtube for other versions of the song, such as the live version, the piano version, the extended video clip and such? Well, I’ve had a few of them, and currently, this is my personal favourite. And, man, do I love the video… (this one is taken from AFI's DVD, I Heard A Voice, filmed at the Long Beach Arena in Long Beach, California in September 2006. Part of the Decemberunderground Tour, the crowd was the largest AFI had ever headlined with over 13,000 people in attendance.)
Love Like Winter
Warn your warmth to turn away,
Here it's December, everyday.
Press your lips to the sculptures,
And surely you'll stay. [distant:] love like winter
For of sugar and ice,
I am made. I am made
[chorus]
It's in the blood, It's in the blood.
I met my love before I was born.
He wanted love, I taste of blood.
He bit my lip, and drank my war,
From years before, from years before.
She exhales vanilla lace,
I barely dreamt her, yesterday (yesterday)
Read the lines in the mirror through the lipstick trace.
Por siempre
She said "It seems you're somewhere, far away" to his face.
[chorus]
Love Like Winter. Love Like Winter.Winter.Three, four
[chorus]
And, ah, pardon me for some vegan pics spam…
Facts about the song:
1. Track #6 dalam album Decemberunderground (2006). Single kedua di rilis selepas Miss Murder.
2. Video klip diarahkan oleh Marc Webb, yang juga mengarahkan video2 lain AFI seperti The Days of the Phoenix, The Leaving Song Pt. 2 dan Miss Murder.
3. Awek cun femme fatale dalam video klip ni ialahDavey Havok Christina Petrovic.
PS: No Daveys in sight, eh? Mak tak tergamak nak buat screencaps dia, nyah!
All screencaps made and uploaded by moi.
I had some Frank for breakfast today, but I ditched the half boiled eggs…
And yeah, I found this picture of Frank from one of my LJ friends’s journal. (Thanks A’isyah!)
Heh, I think I’m gonna start calling him Farouk from now on, hehe… And yep, yesterday, my sister sms'ed me this.. "Wuu... dj flyfm sebut 'frank LERO'.." Huhu... is it that hard to pronounce his surname? Galaxie and Junk magazine pun tulis Frank Lero. It's IERO, people. Eye-year-roh. Damn. I think it's better than Fred Lero, anyway.
The song that leaves a wtf? look on me face.
Aku tengah dok tunggu monorel bila terdengar lagu ni kat TV yang selalu pasang iklan tu. Tak perasan lak siapa yang nyanyi (nampak macam band Indon jek), tapi liriknya lebih kurang camni…
“Buritku sebagai lelaki…”
What the hell? Kiamat sudah dekat, men...

This Post is Mostly Fillers for My Heroes Withdrawal Syndrome.
Ali goes to Bollywood ~ harap2 tak lost in translation, hehe…
Aku tengah hidangkan air kat tetamu di rumah MIL aku bila kuar klip pendek dari filem Marigold di akhir berita jam 8 tu. Tergamam jap bila tengok dia menari ngan Salman Khan but at the same time, I was thinking wtf? Haha, one of the films yang aku nak tengok tahun ni. Walaupun aku kekadang tak berapa selesa dengan abs Salman yang agak superficial tu. :P
It’s marvelous what Milo can do for you! Pause. Not!
Adik aku hantar klip video Fergie baru kat Friendster. Ugh. Aku memang dah sah2 tak suka si Fergie tu, apatah lagi lagu2 dia (“Whatcha gonna do with all that junk, all that junk?”) and a redneck Milo in this vid? Wtf??? With fake tatts, ponytail, facial hair, ugh, totally not the Milo I know (perasan). Please, give me my nerdy, emo Milo! (PS: Yeah, I’m pretty disturbed too with the long shot of da nipple. DOES NOT WANT!!!)
Random Heroes fangirl squee
Masa tengah belek2 majalah kat satu mag store kat monorel station ni, aku terjumpa majalah ni, Geek Monthly, yang diletakkan betul2 sebelah majalah SPIN (covernya aku perasan ada Davey Havok, Tom Morello and some other guys for the Loolapalooza). And guess who’s on the cover?
Er, can we have some Adrian Pasdar in a Jedi robe? And yeah, a lightsabre too? Cool.
Terjumpa post ni masa tengah browse the interwebs. From http://brero.es/blog/?page_id=313.

Updates, y'all!
Assalamualaikum & Happy TGIF everybody!
Ikmal’s Mid-term exam results.
Aku pergi ambik report card Ikmal pagi tadi. Dia dapat nombor 9 dalam kelas. Daripada 13 students semuanya. Aku a bit dissapointed, tapi abah dia suka gila. Katanya, “Ikmal dapat kalahkan abah sebab dulu masa tadika abah dapat nombor last!” Yeah, right, try telling that to a teacher’s daughter yang selalu terpaksa struggle to perform sebab ayah dia seorang cikgu. :( Cikgu dia kata, kena ada revision lagi kat rumah, especially bab membaca. Aku tengok kertas exam dia, ada yang okay (Jawi – 97/100), tapi ada gak yang KO (Bahasa Melayu, Bahasa Arab – 68/100). That’s it, Ikmal. No more computer games for you. And definitely no RC this time.
Into the flood again, the same old trip it was back then…*
Yep, KL banjir lagi. Dan kali terakhir banjir seteruk ni aku rasa ialah pada tahun 2003. I was there, man, stuck kat tengah2 KL lepas balik kerja, trying to make my way thru all the water- filled areas. Kalau tak salah aku, masa tu aku kat Lebuh Ampang, tengah cari jalan nak gi stesen LRT yang terdekat, tapi aku cuma dapat sampai ke stesen Bandaraya (kat Sogo tu). Gerun juga tengok air sungai yang mengalir laju, thinking, pergh, kalau le aku jatuh kat dalam tu…

* For those who called my handphone now, this is one of the caller tune (the chorus of Would? by Alice In Chains). I've ditched MCR's Ghost of You (sebab ramai komplen terperanjat beruk kalau call aku) and bought another one ~ Cupid's Chokehold by Gym Class Heroes.
For Sha Shinizzle, if you’re reading this…
“This DVD has been 8 years in the making. We didn't want to cheat the fans by putting out a standard live DVD. Instead we wanted to focus on giving back to our fans by showing them what makes 5 best friends from Huntington Beach eat, sleep and breathe the Avenged Sevenfold lifestyle. This DVD shows everything from life backstage on the bus to some of the first shows in our hometown. We didn't leave anything off that fans have been asking about for all these years. Unlike cookie-cutter concert DVD's this is a documentary you can watch again and again for years to come.” -M. Shadows
Avenged Sevenfold's "ALL EXCESS" will be released July 17th, 2007.
Can I hear a fellow fan squee??? \(^_^)/ Cepat la balik woi!
PS: Sha, kalau jumpa kat memana DVD AFI (I Heard A Voice) please tell me too, okay! And just because…
Sigh, I missed my fave bands so much. And frankly speaking, not listening to my fave songs during this time, it really sucks. Why? Because I had to subject my poor ears to all those shits they’re playing on the radio on the next cubicle. I fuckin hate it! At least let me work in a quiet, peaceful environment, can or not? Kat monorel lagi teruk. Dah le crowded gila tetiap pagi, pastuh TV tu dok tayang iklan kompeni karaoke mana ntah, pergh, tension, tension. Can somebody please hand me a shotgun? *clicks*
ZOMG! I’m one of those PLWW (People Living With Workaholics)!!!11!!
Last night my SO slept at 4 am. Yup, can’t blame him though, he’s one of those people yang particular about his job and has a huge sense of responsibility. Tapi aku nak tergelak bila aku kejut dia bangun solat subuh tadi.
Moi: Abah, bangun subuh.
Him: (Mumbling something with his eyes closed) Dispose, yes dispose the bond.
Moi: *slaps head* *rolls eyes*
Happy Fathers Day, Sayang!
Just so you know la, and if you got RM3 to spare…
Hi Zack!
Thanks for writing in. Your blog has been selected to appear in our 17-30 June issue of Galaxie. Do look out for it in the Cyberspace page!
Evelyn (Teo of Galaxie), from my email.
Yay!
Later folks!

Thursday Thirteen #20
Frankly speaking, sekarang ni, aku macam dah malas nak makan daging (except for occasional Cheeseburger Deluxe atau ayam goreng berempah). And it’s also enlightening to know that a diet rich in fish is beneficial to your health.
Children whose mothers eat fish regularly during pregnancy develop better language and communication skills !
Apa pun, aku sedih sangat dengan bad rep yang menimpa sardin dalam tin. Memula tu, ada la hamba Allah ni dok circulate email tentang kuah sardin yang dicampur dengan (gasp!) siput babi. Pastuh, bebaru ni, ada pulak yang claim kalau makan sardine banyak sangat, boleh jadi ovarian cyst (for women la). I dunno what to believe la, sebab kalau tang halal tu, memang le dah ada tertera logo halal JAKIM kat tin sardin tu, tapi kalau bab menyebabkan cyst? I dunno. Maybe kalau ada sesiapa yang buat research tentang ni dan terbukti sah? We’ll just wait and see…
Anyway, here’s another TT because this is my blog and I haven’t blogged in like, two weeks and I’m starting to get the chill and rashes and whatever… (and frankly speaking, selera makan aku macam takde sejak pregger ni and I just eat for the sake of filling my tummy and avoiding gastric) :(
13 of My Favourite Fish dishes (tak termasuk satar, otak-otak, sate ikan dan keropok)
1. Ikan pari masak asam pedas Johor (dengan sawi asin dan daun kesum). Good enough to eat with bread!
2. Ikan bawal hitam masak masam manis. The best one I’ve tasted is at a food stall near Masjid Geliga, Terengganu.
3. Ikan pari bakar cicah air asam + kicap pedas + sambal belacan.
4. Fish and chips. As long as the fish is REAL fish and not that nuggety fish paste.
5. Ikan siakap tiga rasa. Well, aku pernah makan a few times only, tapi memang sedap.
6. Cencaru bakar (goreng dengan minyak yg sedikit), cicah dengan kicap + lada + bawang stail mak aku.
7. Ikan bawal kecik2 atau belanak goreng.
8. Botok2 (ikan tenggiri dicampur dengan pelbagai daun dan rempah dan dikukus dalam daun pisang). My late grandmother made awesome botok2! And I missed it so much….
9. Ikan sardin goreng (sardin ori, bukan sardin tin) masak sweet and sour stail my MIL.
10. Gulai nasi dagang ikan tongkol.
11. Ikan bawal hitam masak kerutup (stail mak aku).
12. Ikan keli goreng bercili/ goreng tepung. Tapi mesti garing2 le.
13. Pais ikan selar kuning. (Ikan di campur dengan bawang + cili kisar, bungkus dengan daun pisang dan goreng dengan minyak yg sedikit))

Apa pun, aku sedih sangat dengan bad rep yang menimpa sardin dalam tin. Memula tu, ada la hamba Allah ni dok circulate email tentang kuah sardin yang dicampur dengan (gasp!) siput babi. Pastuh, bebaru ni, ada pulak yang claim kalau makan sardine banyak sangat, boleh jadi ovarian cyst (for women la). I dunno what to believe la, sebab kalau tang halal tu, memang le dah ada tertera logo halal JAKIM kat tin sardin tu, tapi kalau bab menyebabkan cyst? I dunno. Maybe kalau ada sesiapa yang buat research tentang ni dan terbukti sah? We’ll just wait and see…
Anyway, here’s another TT because this is my blog and I haven’t blogged in like, two weeks and I’m starting to get the chill and rashes and whatever… (and frankly speaking, selera makan aku macam takde sejak pregger ni and I just eat for the sake of filling my tummy and avoiding gastric) :(
13 of My Favourite Fish dishes (tak termasuk satar, otak-otak, sate ikan dan keropok)
1. Ikan pari masak asam pedas Johor (dengan sawi asin dan daun kesum). Good enough to eat with bread!
2. Ikan bawal hitam masak masam manis. The best one I’ve tasted is at a food stall near Masjid Geliga, Terengganu.
3. Ikan pari bakar cicah air asam + kicap pedas + sambal belacan.
4. Fish and chips. As long as the fish is REAL fish and not that nuggety fish paste.
5. Ikan siakap tiga rasa. Well, aku pernah makan a few times only, tapi memang sedap.
6. Cencaru bakar (goreng dengan minyak yg sedikit), cicah dengan kicap + lada + bawang stail mak aku.
7. Ikan bawal kecik2 atau belanak goreng.
8. Botok2 (ikan tenggiri dicampur dengan pelbagai daun dan rempah dan dikukus dalam daun pisang). My late grandmother made awesome botok2! And I missed it so much….
9. Ikan sardin goreng (sardin ori, bukan sardin tin) masak sweet and sour stail my MIL.
10. Gulai nasi dagang ikan tongkol.
11. Ikan bawal hitam masak kerutup (stail mak aku).
12. Ikan keli goreng bercili/ goreng tepung. Tapi mesti garing2 le.
13. Pais ikan selar kuning. (Ikan di campur dengan bawang + cili kisar, bungkus dengan daun pisang dan goreng dengan minyak yg sedikit))

13 Things That Make You Go Yum! or Yuck!
Aku terfikir nak buat pos ni masa baru nak makan soto yang aku beli malam semalam. Pergh. Makcik ni tak agak2 masukkan TIGA (yes, 3) ketul kaki ayam dalam sup soto aku. Well, aku tak kisah makan kaki ayam, tapi aku dok teringat kat Arwah FIL aku yang selera makannya mesti terbantut kalau ternampak kaki ayam (or something that resembles kaki ayam, anyway) dalam masakan tu. As they say, one man’s meat is another man’s poison. Terfikir lak nak buat list ni, and what say you guys about these local delicacies? (well, some are not delicacies but you know, edible parts of animals). Yum? Or simply no-no?
1. Kulit ayam ?
Yum! My fave sejak kecik lagi, but only if deep fried dan dibuang semua lemak2.
2. Fish head curry ?
Er, no thanks. I’ll take the curry only. Hehe, aku kagum betul dengan orang yang boleh makan kepala ikan sampai bersih, even slurping the eyes like it’s some kind of jelly >.<
3. Tempoyak?
Tak makan, but is my hubby’s favourite.
4. Tongkeng ayam?
Only in small doses. Sedap digoreng tepung, tapi dengan syarat buang dua ‘biji’ lemak tu dan semua bulu2 yang tertinggal.
5. Siput sedut ?
Yum! My fave! Tapi cuma kalau masak lemak dengan keladi le, hehe… My dad selalu mengeluh sebab ketiga2 menantunya (yang lelaki) tak makan siput sedut tapi anak2 perempuannya suka! Kalau aku makan, I’ll make sure not to eat in front of my husband sebab dia macam ‘alergik’ dengan bunyi kitaorg sedut siput tu.
6. Sambal petai ?
Nope. I eat the sambal and the prawn/ ikan bilis only. My hubby’s fave though, so kalau makan, aku akan bagi petai2 tu kat dia.
7. Perut lembu ?
Only if made into satay, sebab aku macam boleh bau hanyir perut tu (phobia takut basuh tak bersih).
8. Limpa atau peparu lembu ?
Nope. Depends also on how they prepare it. Aku suka kalau paru yang dihiris nipis dan digoreng tepung garing2, but also in small doses.
9. Buffalo meat ?
If you didn’t tell me that the dish is made from buffalo meat, I wouldn’t know the difference. Biasanya kalau kenduri kawin kat kampung2 la, dan as far as I’m concerned, dagingnya liat sikit berbanding lembu.
10. Belut ?
Tak pernah makan lagi, so I dunno. Yep, not even unagi.
11. Cincaluk ?
Pernah makan sekali. Dah lupa pun rasa dia camner. I guess it’s a no kot?
12. Sup gearbox ?
No!!! Aku tengok orang dok sedut dengan straw tu pun rasa like, alamak! The cholesterol! And please, jangan mention sup torpedo kat aku. Seram kau!!!
13. Ikan pekasam ?
Aku pernah rasa sekali, kira okay kot, tapi aku lagi prefer ikan masin.

i is bz, brb k thxbai! ~ updated
Assalamualaikum & Happy Monday everybody!
Sorry for the long silence.
1. I’m currently busy with our company’s 2006 Annual Report ~ both the English and BM version, plus proof-reading all the badly translated new FRS’s, man, those babies are giving me a headache!!! Plus, I have a few sheets of questionnaire from the MoF to kautim (that’s the Ministry of Finance, not Grand Moff Tarkin, mind you).
2. My nausea is killing me! I’m not taking any meds, even though my cousin Alin has suggested some Maxolons if I cannot tahan, but thanks hon, I’m very much dependent on TicTacs or Frozz or anything that’s minty right now. At least that saves me from barfing at the monorail station. :)
3. Am lovin’ image macros right now. And making tones of em, using every photos I’ve got. For those who didn’t know what I’m talking about, click here -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_macro
Will update once both drafts are a-okay (and with the printer), so, be nice everybody!
ETA:
Tahniah buat Pak Lah yang bakal menamatkan zaman duda beliau hari Sabtu ni, dan juga buat Edd Vedder yang bakal melangsungkan oops, no, one step closer to ending his swinging bachelor days on the very same day. Selamat bertunang Edd! Tahniah buat kau dan the lucky lady!
Oh ya, macam2 cerita aku dengar pasal Pak Lah nak kawin ni. Wtf la, can we at least be happy for him on his big day? I applaud his wish to have a simple, ‘family and friends only’ wedding, because at least we know that there won’t be any road closure and gasp!!! masjid closure and surely no kereta kuda will be involved. Plus, his misai is like, 1,000x better than the other one. Yuckity. And, another thing. Pak Lah, got public holiday or not? hehe...
And oh, ada sesiapa perasan tak?
And yes, a HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! to Wentworth Miller (on the 2nd). I’ve made a post for this tapi malas lak nak post. Also to Pete Wentz and Draco Malfoy (both bad boyz celebrated their birthdays on the 5th).
Ta! again
xoxo
