OH SHI-

Well, by a stroke of bad luck, I got incredibly sick last week with a 'severe throat infection'. Fever lasted about 5 days and the throat, oh the throat, was so bad it was actually and literally BLEEDING. Honestly for a while I thought it was something much worse, like dengue, but thankfully that was not the case and I have made a full recovery.
Still, not fun man. It's like waking up and feeling like a zombie, shuffling your feet, head being stupidly and hilariously heavy, feeling so weak that my heavy head seems to be tipping over my whole body. Not a good feeling really, and as far as I can recall this is about the only time I was so sick I couldn't walk straight.

Be on your toes when I'm around though, I might just turn into one.

In other news, ZH is back, and crazier than ever! Glad to see him still being a retard, cause well, I'm pretty much in the same league and I'm glad there's still another idiot around to group myself with! P/S Throat is feeling fine now, when are we gonna do the bucket KFC party?!

Oh and, had a guys' day out just a few days ago. Nothing out of the ordinary, heh, good times. Watched a great movie, Super8 by JJ Abrams. Glad to see that he hasn't lose his finesse on the silver screen. Super8 is as suspenseful as it is touching, it really is nice to see kids starring in a pretty serious film. Although the plot is a little typical, but putting kids as the main characters is what made the film different ultimately. All of them are innocent and dealt with the situations in the film like kids instead of going all Michael Bay on the (spoiler) alien's ass. And to top all that off, the kids can actually act! Some of them very well too, stars on the rise? Can't tell, but this is one film definitely worth watching and worth rewatching. It also seems to be a Father's Day tribute.

Then about my studies, it's a whole lot of sitting around and waiting for something to do really. Because of my little stint in Selangor Times, Intro to Journalism and Advanced Media Writing classes are incredibly easy. So much so that I didn't thought possible. Those 2 classes are basically a recital of what I already know. Then it's seminar class, requires the class to organise an event. Sounds hard? I assure you it's probably harder than it sounds. I am head of the 'Special Tasks Group', no we're not some Navy Seal special forces shit. On the contrary, we're supposed to be dealing with misc. So far, the group has little more than just waiting around for something to do really. Bright side is, with the deadline closing in we're probably gonna get real busy real soon.

Cheers

REVAMP!!!

Yes! The long awaited revival of my personal blog, courtesy of Yong Zheng Hong kicking my flabby arse into gear. Now, I'm gonna update this blog every week (or so, if I remember, yeah, I'm lazy), it's a pact I made with Zheng Hong and lets see how long we both can keep it up. 'For what?' you might ask, and 'because I can' I'll answer. Well on the plus side, this journalist in learning / training can start practising on his writing, so hey, why not indeed.

So this will be the first post I'll be typing up in more than 3 quarters of a year now, this blog demands some spring cleaning! First up is my unofficial 'mascot', if anything he or she makes things more interesting. Anything and everything that comes through this blog will have the TuTuTruppen seal of approval! Not that you need it but it's a freebie, and you know you LOVE freebies.

It's stupid time!

Well, the seal of approval is still at work so I guess I'll post that up another time. On the other hand, time to catch up with my life. I'll post only brief stuff in here to keep things interesting, although I don't know how it could be. But read on and tell yourself it's interesting, and it will be. If it isn't, sucks to be you and no refunds for your time wasted.

First things first, things seem to be going fairly well in my studies. Took two of the hardest subjects in my final year courses and miraculously managed to scrape through. Not a very happening semester per se, but one of my favourite lecturers left the university and it's a damn shame really. UCSI knows nothing but money making and kept letting good lecturers go, pretty soon this place will have none of them left. Thank heavens I'm leaving the place in a year.

And oh, I have a girlfriend now. She's cute, intelligent, hardworking, creative, dedicated, and etc. Yeap, she's that good. Being around her makes me feel like an idiot but I'm also happy as a 5 year old kid in a house made of marshmallows. Due to her being a very private person I won't reveal her name and no pix to feast your eyes, sorry (NOT, I still get to see her almost everyday). I would like to keep it that way too.

Thar the kitten!
D'aawwwww...(she's about THIS cute)

Been working out a fair bit lately, no major progress in my little mission to shed a few kilos. But I have perhaps gained a wee bit of muscles as pointed out by my gf and may have lost a bit of weight.
Then it also appears that my hairline is thinning, pretty young to be at this stage but extremely expensive (RM180 for shampoo and conditioner!) hair fall solution seems to be helping. Punched a pretty big hole in my wallet that month.

And I guess that's about it? Will keep you guys posted, once a week if I remember.
