2012 - end of d-WORLD?

Anyway, I was looking for stg at QB and b4 I knew it, I was in line to buy ticket for 2012 midnite show last nite..rrr..can u believe it?..always end up doing stg which is totally not in my organizer (yeah, like I have one..huhu)

Hmm...2012 is not really a judgment day n d-ending was so cliche. i dunno i juz dun really like d ending. It's not dramatic. They shud've incorporated more d link btwn Mayan's belief n scientific study which lead 2 d so-called judgment day. N dig more on geology or wuteva relevant stuff.

To me, cgi wise was almost perfect but d storyline umm din really meet my expectation. Plus, acting wise (4 most of 'em) were mediocre. Kinda surprised John Cusack was juz ok as well as Amanda Peet..Not impressive...Hmmm

Btw, i do like one of d sorta crazy freaky fella who did d short n yet understandable presentation bout d solar-flare effect which cause d unstable physics deep down d earth. Cool...

D-rest of d-film, jus go n c for urself :P

my Verdict: 3.0001 out of 5

Pisau Cukur

Hi PEEPS..it's bin quite a while..anyway, last nite I watched PISAU CUKUR or a.k.a. GOLD DIGGER at GSC. Well, loved d-movie n it's highly recommended.

1) ELLE WOODS in LEGALLY BLONDE

2) a bit taste of CSI scene

4) RAFIDAH (Host of 3R) dress in Kimono with Heavy Make-Up (so funny..she really did make me burst into laughter..SEWEL, talk-2-d-hand scene …hahaa)

5) Different n naughty side of MAYA KARIN

6) Sarcastic remark jokes (for instance, from anchorwoman to become SOMEBODY in ROYAL family)

7) Lesbian, Bi n gay issues

8) Into Fashion n stuff (if u worship LV..oh my DIOR, I like BELLA’s bag)

9) To have a closer look at d-definition of HOW “Natural Beauty” turned out into stg like..umm..UMIE AIDA, perhaps..

10) FAZURA

And my verdict for (Malaysian film category) is 4 out of 5

Selamat Hari Raya

To all MUSLIMS out there, I'd like to wish Selamat Hari Raya Ailfitri Maaf Zahir Batin

cavity n filling

I made an appointment at private dental clinic juz now for this coming Thursday. Well, to start with, I've a cavity, a very visible cavity at my front tooth. Hmmm...

Well, I was gargling after breaking fast d-other day n felt stg caught in between my front teeth. Then I tried to remove that stupid thing n suddenly, d-filling fell off my tooth...ARGHHHHH..

Fortunately it juz cost me RM50 for a filling n it wud not be a problem. And I did ask d-gal at d-counter d-price for crowning..I was kinda shocked as she said it's RM400. Last time when I had my tooth crowned it was free as I did that at USM. Yeah, I know, I was a USM student back then n dental service is free of charge. Hmmm...RM 400 Versus FOC...pretty hard to decide on that. I'll ask d-dentist this cumin' Thursday regrading this matter. Huhuhu

Hospital n childish-patient

Last nite me n other fellas went to Penang GH as one of our buddy was not feeling well. Well, due to recent outbreak of H1N1, we tot it's best to take him to d-hospital. So, after we did our NOT-SO-GOOD stuff, we picked him up n off we went to d-GH.

It took us approx 15 minutes or so as d-traffic was light. Btw, whilst Tani waiting for his turn, we did some "jumping photo shoot" along d-corridor. Huhuhu....u know, just to kill d-time. Besides it was 1.30 am n we kinda bored. So, there we were, like a childish-patient doing all d-jumping while being photographed by d-photographer wannabe. Hehehe...

I put all d-pics below n decide which one is d-best shot. Huhuhu

Hmmm....none other than----> FACEBOOK

Please click d-link above to go 2 my page.

PTPTN

I’ve no definite explanation on a subject that I’m gonna whining about. It’s a bit scary n it also offer a financial aid when u needed them. What’s that?

PTPTN study loans…..

Where shud I begin?.. I always put things off n it does reflect in d-repayment of PTPTN study loans. Well, it really hit me when I received d- 1st WARNING letter (about a week ago) which stated that if I didn’t start to pay back within 14 days from d-date of d-letter, they’ll file a lawsuit against me. My LORD!!!!!!!

Actually, I’m ok with that as I’m financially n mentally ready to begin my “pay-back” time. However, d-only fly in d-ointment is, I had to pay them RM14,300 instead of RM13,000. Wut d-heck!!!

Fine, I know that u guys gonna blabbing over d-interest n bla..bla..bla..which I’m aware of by now. The thing is, I’ve requested a postponement and I got a positive reply from them. I tot that d-re-payment-thingy only started on January 2007 as I graduated in August 2006. Clear????

Wut pissed me off is, I check my loan account balance yesterday and I was freezed in shock for a sec, then only I realized that they imposed d-re-payment process in January 2006. See?...that’s really boiling me up.

And immediately, I sent an email to them to express my displeasure and my concern with regards the payment issue.

Hi,
I am (edit), IC: (edit) and I graduated in August 2006. Supposedly (edit). Regarding the loan payment, I have sent a mail to request for postponement. Subsequently, I received a reply from your side stating that I am eligible for the postponement. And yet, when I check on the 2006’s statement, it stated that I should have started pay the loan in January 2006.

My big concern is, when exactly my loan payment begins? Shouldn’t it be in January 2007? Below is the screen shot of my statement for 2006. I do hope you can clarify on this matter.

Many Thanks.

To my surprise, they reply back less than 24 hours. Wanna know wut they’ve got to justify everything?..please see below.

Tuan,

Sebagaimana yang telah dipersetujui dalam perjanjian, pinjaman dikenakan kos pentadbiran 4% setahun (bermula Januari 2004 sehingga seterusnya dikira atas 3 %) ke atas baki berkurangan mulai tarikh mula patut bayar balik pinjaman iaitu 6 bulan selepas mengambilkira tarikh pengesahan tamat pengajian / tamat pinjaman (mana yang terdahulu). Semua peminjam PTPTN adalah tertakluk kepada kos pentadbiran.

Untuk makluman anda, walaupun penangguhan diluluskan tetapi Pengiraan kos pentadbiran tidak akan ditangguhkandalam tempoh penangguhan, kos pentadbiran tetap dikenakan. Penangguhan bayaran balik akan mengakibatkan jumlah ansuran pada masa akan datang menjadi lebih tinggi, kerana tempoh bayaran balik yang menjadi lebih singkat. Ini kerana penangguhan tidak akan menganjakkan tarikh akhir tempoh bayaran balik. Ia hanya menganjakkan tarikh mula bayaran. Oleh itu, ia akan menambahkan lagi beban kewangan pada masa akan datang.

Sekian dimaklumkan.

Happy Mother's day

Sorry 4 being late to wish Happy Mother’s day. To be honest, I didn’t know d-exact date but I do know it’s somewhere in May. Some of u, might had taken ur beloved mom to a lovely restaurant or had bought a presents or any means to celebrate Mother’s day.

Happy Mother's day's cake

Well, I hate to admit it that actually, I’ve never been a fan to celebrate things like, u know, things like birthday, anniversary, anykinda day like mother’s day n stuff. Wait..dun judge me OKAY. It doesn’t mean that I am a stone-hearted or a bad guy. It‘s just that I’m not into that throw-a-party kinda guy n stuff. I have my own way to celebrate or I’d prefer to use “appreciate” in my context, to d-stuff which had been with me or have been with me. But hey, if u guys intended to ask me to join in, I’m in. Or d-least thing I cud do, chip in. However, to initiate, I bet, it won’t happen. Huhuhu...

Anyway, last Sunday, my sis asked me to chip in to buy an ice-cream cake. I was like, for what. Then only I know it’s a mother’s day. For d-very FIRST time in my life, I agreed and let d-rest to my sis. She did everything. Before I knew it, my sis was holding d-cake while loudly n yet graciously shouting Happy Mother’s day.

yeah, I managed to grab it 1st

yummy..yummy

Simple..yeah, that’s d-perfect word to describe d-moment. Oh yah, the happiest person on that day was....I had to pick my nephew, Daim Darwisy. Oh My LORD, he’s so eager n enthusiastic. Especially when my mom was about to cut d-cake n he suddenly crawling n reached out his hand n stole d-red cherry on d-cake...hahaha.

Review: X-Men Origins: Wolverine

I watched d-movie last nite and....what can I say...

It's one of the best movie of this year. Or at least, it did live up to my expectations. It has romance, juz a lil' bit though, a touching moment and d-most essence of d-movie itself, d-storyline.

20th Century Fox won't bother to do a prequel or an introductory movie of Wolverine if it ain't serve d-purpose. And at d-end of d-day, you wud go "ooohh", "aahhhh", "no wonder he cudn't remember" sort of exclamation. See....that's only goes for those who barely know about d-whole X-Men-thingy. But, those who put their heart n souls into d-X-Men world, they prolly disagree with d-way it's been potrayed in d-movie. Well...jus a bit.

According to a friend of mine, Sabretooh & Wolverine were not supposed to be brothers. And I did searches on that, well...it's true. I dunno, but, to me it doesn't matter as it didn't ruined d-storyline or whatsoever.

Besides d-storyline, I'd like to give xtra star for d-convincing effect n action. However, there's a one tiny unconvincing part which I've totally forgotten, but it's forgiven already as it's compensate my lust towards d-whole-full-with-action-thingy scene. U know wut, it feels like u were having a sliced choc indulgence from secret Recipe and garnished with anykinda flava ice cream with crumbled nuts....My LORD...it's too much exaggerated edi...hehehehe

Anyway, u guys prolly didn't know that Wolverine's claw was actually his bone and it was only encased with adamantium, an indistructable substances, when he was induced to undergo somekinda operation.

All in all, it was worth my RM6.00 n those who never watched X-Men movies before, don't hesitate to hit ur nearest cinema as it won't make u feel "isolated" or "lost" as I can assure u guys that, u still can enjoy d-movie without even know the background history of X-Men n stuff. Get it?....Good.

Oh Btw, I kinda disappointed with Gambit's n Emma Frost's scene. Too little for them n they didn't really show off their powers in a sense that cud make me "WOW". Anyway, it's all about Wolverine...huhuhu

My verdict: 8.57 out of 10

funny caption???

Last week I went to Gurney Plaza with some bitches. Cut it short, we stopped by at one store which selling lotsa cardigan, well, actually a friend of mine was looking for one. There we were, n I did put on one of d-cardigan which I think, kinda nice. On second tot, 2 cardigan is enuf d.

kinda like d-color combination

was it ok?...shud I get 1?

Before that, we hit Bazar Chowrasta as a pure-bred-in-Teluk-Intan friend of mine was looking for a batik textile. As we wandered around, I saw this sorta funny caption written on a board n put on around d-clothes.

Hmmm....to all DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, u guys shud have 1

not only that, i found this one 2...duhhh

And how bout d-head scarf?....was d-shop owner implied that whnver u wear above-pic, u can feel MAWI's presence around u?..my LORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Review: Coming Soon

Who's SHOMBA ?

SHOMBA was found to have killed her prey by digging out her prey's eyes. OOuuchhhh....it's sickening n disturbing. U wanna know more about this person, do check out d-movie still photos from "coming soon", d-latest horror movie from Thailand.

Kudos to d-production team as they managed to get four of us sit still in fear of unexpected appearances of SHOMBA, d-villain character or simply to say d-GHOST. We watched d-movie last Tuesday at Islah's house. Yeah, it's leaked on d-net n d-quality was superb.

Well, personally, I think they should rename d-title to "SHOMBA" instead. To me, SHOMBA is more significant compared to "coming soon" as d-name of SHOMBA associate with evil+madness+no mercy+fear. The moment u think of SHOMBA, I bet, SHOMBA's face will instantly filled in ur bubble thought. Hehehe...it might get stuck 4 several days.

Btw, d-storyline is somewhat different from most of horror movie as they left us wondering especially at d-end of d-movie. Wanna know wut happens, go watch urselves or u can send ur blank DVD to me, plus with hidden charge, n I'll burn 4 ya...hehehe..nay.

my verdict: 8.5 out of 10

Review: Confession of Shopaholic

Isla Fisher as Rebecca Bloomwood aka Becky

I was so excited when I learned bout a popular shopaholic series were being filmed back then n I was looking forward to watching d-movie. U know, especially when u've read d-series until d-latest installment which I believes it's called "shopaholic n Baby something". As for me, I read d-1st installment a year ago. And last night, I watched d-movie at GSC, Queensbaymall.

How's d-movie?

Hang on shopaholic, hold ur breath....take a deep breath...hold on for a sec n release...phewwwwwww....it's a CRAPPPPPPPPPP movie....

Nay...kidding....

The movie was so hilarious. I was a bit sceptical when I discovered that Isla Fisher wud play d-character of Rebecca Bloomwood (Becky) juz bcuz I never heard or watch any of her movie b4. My major concern was, was she capable of playing n translate d-character on screen as Rebecca Bloomwood was portrayed as a spontaneous, witty, unpredictable and wild in d-novel. To me, she did pretty well n as for character of Suze (Rebecca's housemate as well as best friend) it was played by Krysten Ritter.

Kryten Ritter as Suze

Hugh Dancy as Luke Brandon

Anyway, there'r couple of changes here n there to compensate with d-time constrain n other factors. Here's some of d-changes they made:

1) Their first (Becky n Brandon) met was supposed to be in d-conference but in d-movie it was at d-burger/hotdog-street stall.

2) Alicia, which supposedly to be Brandon's PA, was being a staff at fashion magazine where Becky was desperately wanted to be one of d-staff there.

3) Brandon was working as an editor at a financial magazine, he doesn't own d-company which publish d-mag.

4) Becky was publicly humiliated by Derek Smith in front of d-audience during her very first appearance at d-Morning or Coffee Show (forgot d-name)

The rest of d-changes, u should go n watch urself...hehehehe

All in all, I kinda like d-changes they made as it somehow make d-storyline somewhat fresh as long as they still keep n stick with d-main idea. I wanna share some of d-secene which I find very funny.

1) My LORD, it's freaking funny when Becky hit d-floor n started showing off her so-called miami-moves with a folding-paper-fan. Gosh...she improvised d-whole dance...hahaha

2) When Becky was coming to work, she run into Derek Smith in a lift. She was kinda curious whether it's Derek or not, so she made a misscall. Then, Derek smiled back n said, "I can always call the number back". Becky was so mortified as earlier, she set a ringtone which she recorded herself n sounded "Dun answer the phone..it's Derek Smith". Hahahaha...get d-pic?...very funny...

3) Again, it's about Becky's so-called dance skill. They had a sorta party n everyone was dancing. Then Brandon approached Becky and asked, "where did u get that moves". She replied, "It comes naturally"...as she replied, Brandon shift his gaze towards Becky's father and his father was doing d-same thing like Becky. And Brandon was seen smiling and said, "no wonder"

Isla Fisher, Sophie Kinsella (d-author of d-shopaholic series) and Hugh Dancy

I can't put all d-funny stuff here...no time to write it all here...better watch than read, rite?..hehehehe. As for d-dialogue, it's not exactly same but it sound more or less like wut I typed above.

My Verdict: 8.95 out of 10

Tani's convocation

Congrats 2 Tani...

I juz got back from attending Tani's convocation at USM, Penang. It's a one-day convocation for those who'r graduated last semester. Previously, it was kinda boring as it was only a one-day convo but this afternoon, tapak convo (d-place where normally graduates, parents and friends hang out after d-receiving-scroll-thingy) were kinda busy with people buying present 4 d-graduate, chit-chat as well as taking photos for personal memories.

me n Tani - went out during lunch hour..hehehe

Left: Arip, Nato, Tani, Din and Alif

bad lighting?...actually it was very sunny today...huhuhu

Actually, it's kinda weird as d-convocation was held on today, Wednesday. It wud hv been better if d-convocation had held on weekends. Anyway, it's not gonna stop friends n relatives to celebrate d-happiest day 4 all graduates.

Finally, u hit d-runway stage at Dewan Tuanku Syed Putra (DTSP), a convocation hall, after d-not-so-short period or extended year during ur six-years study at USM. U did it...Congrats again....

Dragonball Evolution

from left: Piccolo's assistant (forgot her name), Bulma, Goku, Master Roshi or something and Chi Chi

Dragonball EVOLUTION……look at d-word of evolution. Clearly it’s gonna be different from d-worldly known manga series called Dragon Ball. Well, changes cud be good and it cud be bad.

Anyway, I’ve never really been a huge fan of d-manga but I did read d-manga till d-finale or last chapter. And I’m sure die-hard fans of d-manga have been waiting n cud hardly wait to watch d-movie n c how d-production team gonna bring everything into d-silver screen. They must be expecting too much, I suppose.

So, how’s d-Dragonball Evolution movie?

I watched d-movie yesterday at GSC Penang around 5.30pm. I missed d-first 2-3 minutes of d-movie as I went out for loo. Anyway, as I approached my seat, Goku was fighting (practicing) with his grandpa, Gohan, on rope. And d-next scene, Goku went to school by bicycle n his bicycle was crashed into by a sporty car. Then d-driver step out n said harsh things to Goku, but he didn’t want 2 fight as his grandpa told him not to. Oh yah, those fellas called him Geeko instead of Goku.

As d-scene took place, came in a group of gals n these fellas joined them as one of d-fella said “beauties awaits”..stg like that. And one of d-gals caught Goku’s eyes and both of them exchanged sorta flirty looks with each other. That gal (she was seen kissing Harry Potter in 4th or 5th series, not sure) happened to be Chi Chi, u know, Goku’s wife-to-be, that’s wut happened in d-manga rite?...correct me if I wrong.

The rest of d-story….buy a ticket n watch urself kay..hehehe

How’s d-movie going?...hmmm, I wud say, it’s WAAAAAAAY too rushed, as a film. They might hv missed out some of d-details like..errrr..I dunno, but d-way they introduce each one of d-character was, just okay as well as how d-characters develop as d-plot progress.

I’m not gonna touch bout d-effect n stuff as u’all know Hollywood movies are good at it. I liked Bulma’s gadget n it looked sorta like d-ones u saw in d-manga. "COOL", that's wut Goku said d-moment he saw how a capsule turned into a vehicle.

By nature, I mean, be it comic or manga or novel based story, d-duration time wud be, at least 2 n a half hours long. Instead, it was 1 hour n 20 minutes stg. I was like, duhhh….too fast u know. There’s nothing much u can expect from d-movie as they crammed the movie into one hour and 20 mnts stg. The director must had a crazy time to put everything into this film. Next time, for d-2nd installment, hopefully they stretch into 2 n half hours. So that, people like me wud feel d-satisfaction of watching a full action-packed kinda movie like Dragonball.

Verdict: 5.95 out of 10

Watchmen

Warning to all superhero fans out there, dun watch WATCHMEN if u expect something like X-Men, Fantastic 4 or Transformers.

Why I said so?

Well, let me begin….first, it’s not a typical superhero movie which normally contains a full-packed non-stop action. Secondly is, d-movie was a bit dragging.

However, those who wanted something new or different from d-superheroes movie, u should go to d-nearest cinema.

As for me, I find d-movie was intriguing despite of wut I’ve mentioned above. It’s pretty deep but not too complex as u guys can understand d-whole plot thingy. On top of that, I liked d-philosophy and d-message embedded within d-movie itself.

I dun know wut was d-director thinking when he making this movie. Basically he wanted to convey a couple of messages with regards to an adverse impact of war, nuke as well as d-philosophy of being a TRUE superhero to d-world. Or perhaps, specifically to the US government?...I dun know….it’s open to dispute anyway.

Ozymandias aka Adrian Veidt

Let me quote one of d-line from Adrian (one of d-watchmen’s character), “to save billions, we have to kill billions of people”…stg like that. Hmmm….Personally, wut they did was…u know, they can’t justify by killing people in order to save others. They just wanted to divert attention off themselves. Hmmm….it sound so familiar these days huh?...

Dr Manhattan

Anyhow...there were parts of d-movie which contains nudity and surprisingly, FINAS must have been TOO busy to do d-SO-CALLED cutting or censoring indecency scene until some scene of a hooker at d-street reveal her tits as well as Dr. Manhattan's Glowing Blue Dick can be seen. Duhhh...No wonder it's classified as 18PL, but still..no Tits or Dick next time kay!!! Yeah rite, sounds like I'm a good person huh?..Nayyy

BLOOD

I HAD MY BLOOD DRAWN this morning...If I knew I was going to have my blood taken, I wud have said NO to this program. Well, for starter, I've decided to voluntarily take part in d-Bioequivalence Study which is conducted by the Info Kinetics Sdn Bhd.

What’s Bioequivalence Study?

Basically, they conduct clinical trials and require humans (not a lab rat) for their study. And they need a very healthy human, therefore, before to take part or become as part of their study, those who’r interested need to go thru medical check up.

As for d-medical check up, I was okay with that as I’ve had that before, u know, I attended a boarding school like….15 years back in Slim River. So I tot it juz a normal medical check up.

Anyway, during d-briefing, we were told to go thru different stages for d-medical check up till d-last stage where we had to draw blood. That’s only d-beginning, once we eligible for d-study, drawing blood is a must. Of cos, then how come they wanna c d-results after consuming d-medications. As d-speaker kept talking on n on and my mind was like…take it or…just leave it.

But, I didn’t go back (took half day from work) as I dun want to waste my leave n I tot I shud give it a try first. Went thru one stage to stage until d-last stage..jeng..jeng…to my surprised, d-Malay male doc did very good job. It didn’t hurt at all. FYI, I haven’t donated my blood or haven’t had my blood drawn b4, NEVER, so that’s why I was a bit scared u know…hehehehe.

Ooops, I haven’t answered d-question above, have I?..Well, Bioequivalence Study is a clinical study to compare two products which contains d-same formula or d-ingredients of d-medicine and these two products are produced by different companies. So, basically, we wud take one dose of the, say product A in week 1, then 2 weeks after or more, we wud take product B. Get d-pic?....Basically they wanna c if these two products have a major difference in terms of d-effectivenes and other criteria.

Oh yah, I didn’t voluntarily take part due to d-fact that I am a kind human being or whatnot. It’s because of d-KA CHING…..they will pay u for every medications u take and it depends on wut kinda medication u take. Besides, I can monitor my health thru free thorough physical and medical examinations. Hehehehe….I hope it doesn’t affect my health or anything even though I aware there’s a risk of taking something like drugs or any medications to ur body. Hopefully everything will be fine.

Jemput 3@Three@Pokok@Tree ??

d-Entrance

It’s been a while since d-last time me n other bitches went out for dinner at d-heart of Penang Island . So, when Islah suggested having a dinner at JemputThree, we promptly nod n agreed.

We had a problem to get there as Islah sorta forgot d-way to get there. But it didn’t take us long n we arrived around 9 stg n just as I tot earlier, it’s not Jemputthree it is Jemput Tree.

If you happen to drive down “d-not-known’ road, I bet, u wud not notice d-existence of d-JemputTree as d-place was kinda “hidden” in plain sight.

Anyway, Jemput Tree (jemput = come), as d-name itself suggested, d-owner of d-restaurant must have loved nature or it cud be just for d-sake of catchy names. I dunno, but d-moment I heard d-name, it sorta like a magnet which drew my attention to know more or at least, it wud make u wonder for a sec. So, as I step out of d-car, d-restaurant is surrounded with huge trees and shrubs. Like I said, u won’t noticed d-place unless someone who has been there come with u n show it to u. Duhh….d-owner shud hv done stg with d-exterior.

from our shelter

As I stepped into d-Jemputree (correct spelling), instantly, I liked d-ambience, it’s so cosy n romantic. They had a nice hut-like sitting. Of all d-hut-like sitting, we headed to d-wooden tree hut. Very nice one n we were very excited as we climbed up d-stairs to reach upstairs.

Menu list-front page. That's d-tree hut's pic on d-menu list

menu list-page2 (click 2 enlarge)

menu list-page3 (click 2 enlarge)

Well, d-table n everything was nice n we had to sit cross-legged on d-wooden floor. In fact, u can lie on ur back if u wanted to.

I had pasta-Polo Funghi

Amzar n Pitt had d-same dishes

Anyway, d-food was just okay, not that bad or very 2x tasty either. N d-pricing also, just okay. All in all, we had a nice dinner outing.

Nadal buried Federrer's dream

Nadal celebrates right after beating Federer

Yeah...it just happened less than 20 hours. I watched d-final match and didn't really expect who's gonna win. However, 99% of me really wanna c Federer to beat Nadal n if he were to beat Nadal, he wud have broken Pete Sampras's 14th Grand Slam title n that's his goal. Who doesn't want to break someone's record, I mean, Hello...u cud have ur name carved or printed in d-Guinness Book World of Record. Errrr...not really break d-record cos if Federer had won d-Australia open, he wud hv a chance to equal Sampras's record only as he already hv 13 titles.

during d-award ceremony

Anyway, from d-start of d-match, Nadal had shown pretty impressive performance n he's quite aggresive. For a moment, I tot he cudn't return d-ball but I was wrong as he hit d-ball hardly n returned d-ball diagonally towards Federer. One thing that I like bout his backhand skill is, he manage to return d-ball in a very strange yet hard to return-it-back angle. I'm very impress with that. In fact, I watched in awe as he doing his stuff on d-court yesterday. He's really fought tooth and nail. Oh yeah bear in mind, a day or two days before he had to play 5 hours n 14 minutes before kicking out his friend/David Cup's team-mate, Fernando Verdasco.

On d-other hand, Federer as always looking calm despite of his mission to beat Nadal in order to get his 14th Grand Slam title. If I were him, I wud hv, at least, had a tension-filled face on me. But of cos, we must remain and act calm n swiftly especially in situation like this where we had to predict our opponents next step and so on.

Last nite match, Federer had many aces against Nadal but it was offset with his unforced error. Eventough his backbone skill which is his one-handed backhand had won him in 2nd n 4th set, unfortunately, in 5th set it didn't work. It seemed like most of d-balls which he returned it back with his famous one-handed backhand didn't give any miracle results.

So, as a result, Nadal won n beats Federer 7-5, 3-6, 7-6(3), 3-6, 6-2.

he's so disappointed

Oh yah, according to my friend, during d-prize ceremony, Federer was sobbing. I didn't watch d-match until d-giving prize ceremony so I didn't really hv d-idea how it looks. But I can tell how much it means for him to win d-match.

Gastric

I'm so grateful today as I'm typing this, I'm capable of doing things like a "normal" people. Why I'm saying this?..Well, for d-last few days I had a severe stomach-ache. I cud barely walk, talk n had no appetite at all.

Thanks to Islah n Rini for taking me to d Penang General Hospital. I cud hv died due to d-condition I was in...yeah rite..huhu. At d-hospital, I was pushed in wheelchair by Islah...well, I had to u know, as I said earlier I cud barely walk. In fact, a single movement cud had caused severe pain in lower abdomen. Seriously dude, it really hurts n it's unbearable. D-doc said it's a gastric, however, I think it's more than juz a gastric.

Later, I had a steroids injection and a “stg-with-d-scientific-name” injection. That’s wut I supposedly had, 2 jabs only but somehow, d-first jab was done 4 times. D-first two was carried out by d-nurse n she claimed that my veins is small so that d-needle cudn’t get thru. Then d-third one, d-male-Indian doctor injected on my right hand (d-first 2 on left hand) n still, unsuccessful. Then he shifted on my left arms. There u go, finally…then only d-nurse proceed with d-second jab n did it on my right arms. Duhh…felt like I was a lab rat or stg. Went back n rest at home. Later that nite, Amzar, Nato n Din came by. Thanks 4 coming by.

The next day, which was on Friday, there’s still no sign of improvement. In fact, I cudn’t sleep all nite but at least I managed to doze off like 1 hour due to d-effect of d-medicine. But still, I was like a living-corpse u know. Before noon, Islah dropped by n brought me porridge, fried-pounded anchovies as well as chopped of ginger. For d-1st time in my life, d-porridge tasted REALLY2x good…hahaha…cos I hadn’t eaten for almost 2 days, I mean a proper meals. Again, thanks ya Islah, really appreciate it.

All thru that day, restlessly, I kept changing n shifting my position. I cudn’t stay too long for instance, I had to shift from lying on my back to on both sides and from stand still to crouching. I did all types of positions u know. Huhuhu..but d-pain was still there. Then I called my parent to pick me n they drove all d-way from Ipoh n arrived around 9.15pm. Hehehe...

At approximately 12.15am, we arrived in Ipoh. I decided to stop by at the Ipoh General Hospital just to see if they have stg difference to offer. To my surprise, d-service was pretty sucks. Compared to Penang GH, by far, well, not that by far, just a tad organized. But still, wut can u expect from GENERAL HOSPITAL?...cos everything is free, hang on....in Penang, yes, it's free. I didn't fork out any RM but in Ipoh, I had to fork out some ka-ching. I dun mind actually as d-amount is considerably small. Oh yah, apart from that, they just gave me one medicine only which I already had. Hmmm….

The next day, took d-medicine as usual and I badly wanted to ease d-pain. But it’s temporary. And I determined to go to private clinic. So off we drove to Poliklinik Taqwa. D-Doc was cool n did a very good job. I had another jab n had my urine test. She said my intestine might had been infected therefore bla..bla..bla….n I paid RM38 only. That’s considerably cheap for private clinic. Besides that, I liked d-tagline “Merawat Sambil Beramal”.

With Allah’s willing, my condition’s getting better n better n I cud tell d-difference. In d-mean time, I gotta watch wut I eat as I dun want to go thru that xperience. Errrr…I’m not gonna ration my food intake or eat only d-not-spicy stuff for d-centuries as spicy stuff is my all-time fav n I’ll be taking n eating any spicy food soon. Prolly, next week…hehehe.
