Happy 19th Birthday Miku


Even though you are not real, and the fact that you have thousands and thousands of other guys liking you at the same time I still think you are the best person I could ever be with... I love you Hatsune Miku, and happy birthday. I know both of us might not see eye to eye (or the fact that, we are completely in 2 different worlds!) but I can't help but believe your growing older as much as I am!

Both of us are 19 years old now, and both of us do like cars and music (hehe) and the fact that both of us has changed quite a lot and had a lot of things happened since last year. Haha, one day I do with I can end up being with you in your world or better yet find a way to make you come and exist in my world! Maybe, maybe... maybe that one day will come soon enough Miku. =3

Oh alright, I'll cut that delusion crap thing and just say that... is it wrong to love an anime character like I do? Is it really that weird? Oh whatever, just ignore it then... and yeah yeah, happy merdeka to you Malaysians as well. I can't give a rats a** about merdeka honestly, I'm really not that much patriotic anyhow... Oh yeah, and also happy birthday sis. =)

ChäoS;HEAd


Feels like such a long time since I've last watch an anime. Although I did watch Eden Of The East Movie I: The King of Eden a few days ago, this was considered the first time I've watched an anime series/season this year! Haha, okay so I might be a little behind time with ChäoS;HEAd, but who cares? Its not like I have time to watch every single anime every day...

So yeah, about Chaos;Head then. I've been wanting to watch this anime for years already ever since I knew about it but never had the time to watch it until now lol. I also wanted to play the game ever since I've gotten my XBOX 360 but even until now I never touched that game, not even once! Hahaha... might need to change all that soon. =P How was the anime then? Good? I guess. Great? Not really...

The storyline is somewhat similar in a way to Inception as both are somewhat related to "mind controlling" and stuff involving our thoughts and usage of our brains. Haha, I can never get old of these things now... okay, so beside that everything else is totally different I guess. In Inception its the guys getting paid to do the job if extracting information in the persons dream, whereas in Chaos;Head its about this guy who has these delusions and things happening to him that he has to figure out why it happened to him, and why he existed and stuff. Its pretty amazing to know how good they made the plot, I can't guess what was gonna happen throughout all the episodes until the very end!

The only disappointment I have with Chaos;Head though is that it felt very short, and the ending does kinda feel a bit incomplete in a sense that... what happens after that? (if you people watched it until the end, you will know what I mean) As I never played the game or read the manga yet I don't really know what happened after that point, but I hope the plan on making an OVA or another season soon. Seems like there is a lot of untold stories that was being left in the show...

Now I'm not gonna really talk a lot about everything else about Chaos;Head, such as the plot, the characters, the production or all that crap. If you are really interested you could always just google it yeah? Haha, I'm too lazy nowadays to do an in-depth posts like I used to last time out but I guess with so many things happening in my life right now its just a matter of time before people start moving on right? Yeah, same goes for this blog. Don't think I have time to be a blogger like I used to be either... =(

2010 Belgian Grand Prix


Okay, first of all I do want to say that I apologize I rarely update my blog often nowadays even when my practical has long been finished and that even that I am now on my semester break I still didn't update my blog with anything much. I guess you can say that the blog looks "dead" or whatever, but yeah... I'll explain that in another blog post soon?

As for this blog post, lets talk about today's F1 race which was held at the awe inspiring track that is Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps...

The race today was just splendid to say the least. With the unpredictable qualifying the previous day, and the changeable weather conditions that happened during the race it made the race really interesting. Added with the demanding nature of the circuit and the weather and you have a recipe for a great race! Haha, but I do have to say I got to feel sorry for Jenson Button though. He got punted out the race by Sebastian Vettel! I mean, seriously what was the guy thinking? He already made too many mistakes this season, probably more than he did in the whole of his career! God I wish Vettel would just handle the situation better like how the other drivers do...

But yeah, congrats to Hamilton for the win though. After being disqualified 2 years ago for "shortcutting" I think this win really means a lot to him. I could go on about the other parts of the race but I think I better just leave a link for you guys to read... (as always) But with what happened to Button, Vettel and Alonso in the race the championship now looks like its gonna be a 2-way fight between Hamilton and Webber. With 6 races left, the drivers championship could still go either way for the 5 drivers, provided that Hamilton and Webber do run into problems as well...

Hamilton wins dramatic rain-affected Belgian Grand Prix

Half a day wasted, and RM4032 lighter...


this was what I actually purchased at this years PIKOM PC Fair. This is probably the most I will ever spend at the PC Fair for quite some time. Well I'm too lazy to post a full review of the things I've bought today (might save it for another time) but yeah, here are what I actually bought:


Lenovo IdeaPad Y460 (with 10 free gifts)
Razer Orochi
Razer Kabuto
SATA Cable

and erm... more photos I guess lol.





Not exactly sure when I will do the review, but hopefully it will be soon. Also sorry that there were not much unpack aging pictures cause I was too impatient to wait and couldn't bother to take the picture lol.

Salt


Oh wow... I don't know where to start with this review regarding Salt. To say that the movie was boring is just too nice. Heck, I could go on and on about how bad the movie is and why you people should not watch it, but then again that would just be a rant and not a review lol...

So okay... well actually I'm not saying that the movie was really bad or anything, but its nothing special either. Just your average spy movie which the main character got betrayed, assassinate some people, defecting the people who trust her, kill some more, etc. Yeah, just about that I guess. I really didn't want to watch the movie at first, but then my friend wanted to watch (which didn't go to plan I might add) and then my dad asked me to buy the ticket today so we could watch it together. LOL, nothing like a father and son bond huh?

Beside the fact that my dad wanted to watch and paying for it (say what? I paid it with my own money dammit!) I guess there is no harm tagging along. But yeah, from the beginning until the end I was just there watching without a sense of feeling whatsoever. Feels like I was just watching some normal show on TV haha. The fact that I tripped and fell prior to the movie wasn't that ideal either. (don't ask please...) So like, are there anything good about the movie? Well frankly there is only one. Angelina Jolie.

Without her acting in the movie, I think the movie would have been a flop lol. (also it was the reason why my dad wanted to watch it, but yeah don't ask why...) Her acting is pretty much what you would expect from her (nothing short of great) but that was about it, the plot was weak, the story build up was boring, the fight seen is like a bore fest, action scene seemed like a video game, etc etc etc... If anything, people only went to watch because it had Angelina Jolie in it and nothing else. Hahahaha...

So what is my final verdict then? At first I wanna gave it a 7.5 but after seeing how mixed the review was (6 out of 10) I have to give it a 7/10. Also I'm giving that rating just because I'm nice, could give it a lot worse but then it wouldn't do Angelina Jolie's acting much justice. =P

StreetDance


Well it was kinda unexpected to be watching StreetDance today, but since my cousin insisted I guess it was okay. Well yeah, the movie was good alright, and if the title wasn't obvious enough it really was about "street dance" so do speak... (and to be honest I was really never a fan of dance movies, but whatever)

So... how good is the movie really? Well I guess its quite good for an independent film (I think, since it wasn't really that heavily advertised and that the fact that it was co-produced with BBC) but whatever... oh and did I say it was British? Hahaha, but to be honest I really do not know what to say about the movie. In short, it was like... dance, a fight, more dance, drama scene, climax, final dance scene, end. LOL, nah it was not really that straightforward but the storyline wasn't really the movies strong point. However, the concept of having ballet and street dance was quite cool actually. The part where they dance near the end was just astonishing.

But other than that, nothing much really. I have no idea who all the casts are, or the fact that who the actual dance crew was but it was fun watching it nonetheless. If your a fan of dance movie like my cousin was, yeah go ahead and watch. I'm sure you people will enjoy it just as much as watching You Got Served, Step Up, Stomp The Yard, etc. But then again, for normal film goers like me it really is nothing special. Oh well... at least I didn't have to pay for it lol.

I have to give it a 7/10. Well, what else would you want me to give it? By the way, I have to thank my friend for paying for the tickets and buying popcorn and drinks for me and my cousin. Haha, yeah I will have to repay you someday... but that is if I have money left after next week! XD

Webber wins in Hungary, could have been Vettel though...


Yeah, I think Sebastian Vettel could have walked away with the win if it wasn't for the stupid penalty. But I guess it was his fault to begin with... Oh well, you win some you lose some. Also another worthy mention was how chaotic the pits were during the safety car period. Nico Rosberg's Mercedes had the rear right wheel came of when exiting the pits, and shortly after Robert Kubica was released into the path of Adrian Sutil which of course both cars collided.

Haha, it was really quite an interesting race to watch even though I probably missed the first 10 laps as I tried rushing home from The Curve after watching movie with my cousin and friends. (more on that on another post) So with this race in the books, it is time for all the team to have a compulsory 1 month break before the team heads to one of of my favorite F1 circuit in the calendar, Spa-Francorchamps!!! =D
