sold-my-soul-and-revolved-around-the-sun-another-year

Hello my dear readers, all 5-6 of you, I lost count. I havent updated in a long time thanks to a somewhat hectic schedule with my free time spent lazing and being lethargic. Am currently in the Pre-Production stage of making a documentary for my final project this semester, will give you guys updates on that once we move to the Production stage.

So anyway here’s a quick run through the things that have come to pass since my last update

  • I sold my soul and joined Facebook. Yes after many many years of rejecting and resisting many social networking websites I finally made one.
  • I started my 5th semester of my Diploma, 2 more to go before I start my Practicum and then move on to the adult world.
  • Capped all my busted teeth, I now have my smile back (no pics as of this moment, sorry)
  • Project Hair ended on the 26th of April. And after 210 days of letting my hair grow, I finally cut my hair. Goodbye long luscious naturally straight locks T___T

    potong

    I now look like this

  • I turned 20 years old. I spent it being ill and in horrible pain for a few days while under quarantine for a week. Best birthday ever

Well thats all I can think of for now. Toodles

Hey folks. You might notice the serious lack of updates. Well I have no idea what to write about and I’m not about to start writing shit unless it’s shit I thought was interesting at the time.

I do however post twitter updates more frequently, so if you’re interested in reading more raw uncivilised bollocks from yours truly, you can check out my twitter updates on the sidebar

We have crosses in our ice cream, they have “Islam is the light”

we-have-crosses-in-our-ice-cream-they-have-islam-is-the-light

Some of you might remember an incident where Wall’s Moo sandwiches ice-cream allegedly had crosses in the cookie design. There are also the numerous times some food items are rumoured to be laced with pork, My personal favourite is when some people declared Kickapoo must be boycotted

Well, as a counter to all this heathen attempts to sway the faith of Muslims, it seems that Muslims have infiltrated the games and doll market in the US and have done a bad job at subliminally transmitting the message “Islam is the light”

” KNIGHTSVILLE, Ind. (WTHI) - Months ago, Rachel Jones was shocked to discover her 4-year-old’s baby doll seemed to have a hidden message: Islam is the light.

Imagine her surprise when a game for her 8-year-old daughter’s Nintendo DS had the same message.

Rachel said she bought the Nintendo game, Baby Pals, as a gift for her 8-year-old daughter after a good report card.

She had no idea the game also contained the hidden message “Islam is the light.”

“We were sitting in the kitchen, and she was playing it,” said Jones. “All of a sudden she looked at me, and I looked at her and she said, ‘Mom, I think my baby said something.’ And so I played it back, and it says ‘Islam is the light.’” “

overdrive

Mreghh, So i just countered 29 + 2 hours (i slept for an hour in between) of not sleeping with 14 hours of glorious sleep and I look like a bloody panda but thats ok.

What the fuck did I do for 29 fucking hours? Well after the usual 14-15 hours awake, I was about to burn some dvds when disaster struck and I started freaking out. Anyway long story short, freaked out, got some help from Joe, missed class, conducted a tutorial, went home, passed out at almost 9ish.

So what did I learn? Well I learned that I have no idea how but I certainly can stay awake for more than 24 hours if I force myself to do it, which I think is needed if I ever work in the television industry someday, especially as an editor.

Anyway, as for the video posted earlier, we shot that short film for a class last year, but I never got around to releasing it mostly because there was no audio to it (Our cameraman accidentally turned off the mic <_< ). But recently, in conjunction with conducting a tutorial for video editing, I decided to work with the producer again to finish it as best as we could. It isn’t the greatest thing on earth, but I’m proud of it and I’m happy with how we patched it up.

And yes I am aware of the continuity errors in some scenes, they were either on purpose cause the Producer wanted it that way, or because we had to save it from becoming an even bigger more obvious continuity fuck up.

Fabulous Bastard

In my busy-ness with stuff and more stuff and possibly some bad internets I have apparently overlooked that I have received a blog award from The Constantly Dramatic One


award_fabulous

W00t. Fabulous indeed. Apparently I am so fabulous because, I quote
“Zikri deserves this award merely cause I wanna irritate him but also because of all the readers and the commentors of Dramatic Musings, he is the only one who always calling it as it is. And telling the truth no matter how irritating it is to me. Thanks dude, you’re faaaaabulous!”

This is a great honour because now the fact that I am truthful honest bastard is confirmed and also I am now a fabulous truthful honest bastard XD

Thanks TCDO, your acknowledgment and kind hearted-ness is awesome gift for the new year (albeit it was given in 08 XD)

So apparently I’m supposed to list 5 things I’m addicted to IINM, and then give this award to 5 more bloggers. Despite refusal to do tags this probably doesn’t count as one sort of so I’ll oblige :P

Things I’m addicted to

1. The internet (duh)
2. Pepsi Max (I drank 5 600ml bottles this week, and average around 1-2 bottles a week everyweek. This may cause me to have a brain tumour if those aspartame possible side effects are true)
3. Ice cream! (I like Ice Cream, screw you)
4. Terry Pratchett (Terry Pratchett is my favourite author, more so than Tolkien and Rowling combined. His wit, humour and sarcasm are awesome and is a big influence on me)
5. Sleep (I sleep.. alot.. sleep is wundebar)

And now, for my fabulous (not necessarily bastards) winners

1. Yahui - Chaborkia
- Simply because I’m afraid she might try to find me in the lrt and strangle me if I dont
- Also because she writes great rants and also if you’re a girl with monolids, lots of great make up tips (or so I assume)

2. Afiqah - cold.lifeless.death
- For being an awesome sister and also for sharing with us your thoughts and rants and all that music related stuff

3. Igor - Random Touche
- Despite updates that are somewhat infrequent, all updates are quality post. While somewhat still a japanese fetish fanboy site, the mix up with other content makes it all a good well thought out read. And hey, even the japanese fanboy stuff is good.

4. Stephy - Scribble out the truth
- Another fanboy fangirl site. Great if you’re into jap or korean cute looking guys (that sounds so gay). Also lots of awesome photos. Too bad most of is private and you can’t look at it unless you’re friended :P

5. Fatin - Infiniti = Definisi
- To my best friend for writing well thought out rants and commentary about life and other stuff and also for that period pain cure post that I use to wow women with my knowledge :P

That’s about it I guess. That’s all for today. Fabulous Bastard out
