I did not go Bali, so I stayed back minum BaRli Peng

Wow so dusty! *sweep* *sweep* -dunno sweep what paloi-

Hey hey ho ho! Yeah just want to indicate that it has been don't-know-how-long-has-it-been-since-the-last-time-I-updated-this-blog. What do I find different now? There are a lot of spammers in my chatbox...

Why didn't I blog since last year? Well, I'm lazy, I'm busy, there's no inspiration and I have a lot more important things to focus on...like what? uh...like figuring out some ways to escape from the rat race so that I can have more time and energy to ENJOY life. Not to WASTE my life.

So what has been going in my life? Ah, I'll just let pictures do most of the talking. My last post was since September, so I guess I'll start from around there.

September 2010

One of my best friends came back for a brief holiday. I think he's pretty cool. Main reasons (LOL) because he studies in Japan, he's going to work there, he's going to change his name legally to Japanese, he's acting more like a Japanese than a Chinese, he's been through the Red Light District (passes through only according to him ehemm), he's using a Japanese hand-phone and he wanna get a Japanese GF (failed a few times...but he is still trying though hahaha).


January 2011

First time I went to Miri's first Korean restaurant and it has been around for 10 years plus! Bibimbap is one of my favorite Korean foods. Unfortunately, this was way less than what I expected from this restaurant. Disappointing! Pocket burned!


March 2011

Another one of my best friends came back around this time. We embarked on a nostalgic walk/jog around our old school areas. I haven't been to that area for a long long time. It was sweet. We went to the old food and drink shack, we went to the church next to our primary school, we walked along our secret alley (back then this alley was full of dog poos) and etc. We had a lot of laughs. This is the day I will remember for a long time as well (11/3/11) because I met a new very special friend :)


April 2011


My step sis invited me to her dad's birthday party at one of his brothers' house. Foods really nice and then the sweet moment where the birthday uncle and grandma blew and cut the cake together. Lastly, I hung around with the elders. It was pretty awesome. For some reason after some drinking they all became more friendly and funny...acting silly and talking crap lol.


June 2011

I called a couple of bros out to celebrate the Dallas Mavericks' victory. There are the World Champion 2011! I am so proud of them! Des and Ray are not basketball fans but I have no one else to celebrate with so...


July 2011

Okay this is the only thing that has to do with the blog title hahaha. I have a planned trip to Bali since last year. I was suppose to be at Bali now at this very moment but...due to some work commitment I am not able to go. Around this time my lil' brother came back from KL, one night we went out together for a drink. We talked about life, career, I gave some advices and discussing about the future. He is moving on to a new environment in Singapore. I wish him the best!

I did not go Bali, so I minum Barli.

Toylogy

Hey wazzup~!!! Friends and blog-walkers, it feels good to be back after a very very long hiatus. I've been so inactive that I was having a lil' bit difficulty signing in to my blog lol.

I was busy with my social and working life and primarily I kinda lost interest in blogging along the way. There are too much to handle online and as you know it, blogging takes up time.

Anyway, one of the things that I spent a lot of time, energy and money (*sniff* *sniff*) to make something meaningful out of my life is starting a business. And that business is designer toys. Not familiar of it? Then go wiki it or something teehee.

I actually planned to keep this secret from most people but *argh* one way or another this is going to come out.

In my opinion, this is not an easy thing to venture into considering the market that we are at (Malaysia, but we can see the potentials). Damn luckily, we have the internet which provides us the way to reach out to the rest of the world. It takes interests, determination, willingness to learn, risk taking and most importantly, I always reminded myself to never give-up. I don't care what turns out in the end, worse comes to worst at least I know tried and that experience alone is priceless. If I succeed, then chances are I'll be in Mary Land or someplace nice.

Before the start, I was doing a lot of thinking, researching and procrastinating. One of the things I knew I lack of is a serious partner of the same interest, same thoughts, understanding and most importantly for me is patience. Thank God one day I found this one person and better still he turned out to be my cousin, Jin. I felt that this is a miracle. I would like to think that God answered my prayer. It is even more amazing that Jin was the very first one who influenced me into getting interested in art and design from a very young age. He is one of the bros I look up to all my life. Everything happens for a reason? There were many signs already I guess.

So then both of us started from scrap. Time and time again we met many challenges and obstacles. We failed and we succeed. Long time since then has gone by but it felt like a blink. We only traveled a short distance but the destination ahead looks promising. So we will keep fighting and going and going...

Yadi yadi yado. We founded Toylogy. Check us out at our Flickr group Malaysia Toy Makers and Facebook page, Toylogy.

Fried Noodle with Cockroaches

One early morning, I bought a pack of fried noodle for breakfast. When I opened the newspaper packaging for the fried noodle, to my horror and funny bone I discovered something very offensive to the hygiene of the food. Guess what? SIX freakin' cockroaches just outside the other layer of the plastic packaging of my noodle!!!

See that?

No? Okay, zoom closer.

Very appetizing aye?

Goodness sake! I almost lost my appetite from that shocking discovery. This is how packaging using newspaper can go wrong because of the contents. It could deliver contradicting messages to people who are observant enough, like me.

Anyway, to get rid of the gross image, I flipped the newspaper for the other page and...

TADAA!!! Pictures of HB (Hot Babes)! LOLX

Increased appetite and satisfaction.

They say the grass is always greener on the other side. Right.

TrolololololololololololololoLOL~

I was checking out some funny stuff on the web and then I found this Youtube link titled Meet Satan (the guy on the thumbnail kinda looked pretty creepy so I guessed that was why for the title).

I clicked the link, load the video and boy, you know ‘Satan’ was actually a really good singer and funny guy! HAHAHA. Just kidding. Anyway, check out this gem I found below (You must watch it):

So how was that? I don’t know if you’ve seen this before or not, but it is popular enough to be known as the new Rick Roll. The song now is widely known as the Trololo song. For me it is one of the most EPIC songs evah. Don’t you think so?

FYI, this song was inspired by the original song, ‘I Am Glad I'm Finally Going Home’. The original song was vocalized and a video of Eduard singing it was made in 1966.

Don’t worry, that is not the real life Satan. This is Eduard Khil aka Mr Trololo or Trololo Man and he is a baritone singer from Russia. In real life, he is actually a very nice and humble person according to netizens.

However, he only started to became famous when people started to take notice of this catchy song uploaded by don’t-know-who to YouTube in 2009. In 2010, Khil reclaimed the spotlight after being in obscurity in many years since retiring in the 1990s. All these helped re-ignited interest in Khil's singing career aside from his vocalised performance. Man, it took 44 years for him to get some worldwide recognition! do.Ob

Aside from this video, I found many other interesting remixes and parody of this song like:

Trololo Trance Remix by Bratan. Dance~ Dance~ I was hyped up by this sick remix.

Der Humpink (The Humping) by Christoph Waltz (This is one of the funniest parodies I’ve ever seen, Christoph Waltz ftw!)

Seems like Trololo Man lip-synched to the song in the video, maybe this is the real deal rofl.

Super Bling Bling Playa’s Head

Guess what, Marquis Daniels’ head is fully coated with diamonds. Not the actual head but the amazingly realistic replica of his head! IMO this thing is like one of the coolest accessories I have ever seen. Like nothing I have seen before. It’s like the coolest identity stuff for the wearer haha. I must say the replica head kinda looks better than his actual head lol.

I do not know why but the diamond chain reminds me of his highness the Moonwalker Robot:

This was created by a 3-D laser imaging process, over 1300 grams of 14k gold, white and cognac diamonds and life-like porcelain eyes, similar to those used in the Madame Tussauds’ wax museum figures. Jason of Beverly Hills’ the one who created this super piece. They say JBH is the new Jacob the Jeweller.

Must have cost Marquis an arm and leg but it would be alright as long as he still has a career in the NBA. This will guarantee to provide him the ultimate swag!

SO dope!
