A’Famosa

So yea… there we were again, in Melacca. This time for the sole purpose of causing havoc around the house, make merry in the pool, and burn a couple of chicken arms to black oblivion.

Didn’t take many pictures and most of these came from Sanjeet’s camera.

I went with:

Lion-O

Tygra

Panthro

Cheetara

Go here for a better understanding~

Didin’t really do anything there, except for being drunk and high for the whole 70++ hours we were there. I could not remember much~ except these…

Sanjeet loves his dick well done

Ok… Boring part starts here:

Gotta thank Anthony who has graciously offered his house, chicken arms and pimp-mobile to us for the weekend.

Gotta thank Sanjeet, who bought pork sausages, drinks, bong, driving to and fro from Melacca, and roughly organizing the whole thing along with Anthony.

Gotta thank Seng Chye and Kelvin for their company, music, silly shouting, and plain craziness to form the icing on an already perfect cake.

Gombak

First, i apologise for the very very overdued update~ Been busy with selectives and rotations and they both kill me…

Gombak, is a very quiet place. It is situated almost an hour away from Bukit Jalil by car through the MRR1 which every morning, without fail, have a traffic congestion somewhere along the way. On Monday, all of a sudden, the pople in Kuala Lumpur just woke up on the wrong side of the bed and we witnessed a total of no less than 6 traffic colitions on 3 major roads. One of them was a fool, who drove his Kia into the ditch, apparently either drunk or half awake.

Back to Gombak, it is a very silent place, with air as humid as sauna and with people who knows little english. The hospital that we were supposed to be visiting there is also a special one, catered for the needs and requirements of the local folk. But, the boring bits need not be mentioned as…

We ate roti canai with the best dahl curry i ever had. (the dahl was sweet and quite addictive and i cannot ask for more…)( and i have not eaten much dahk curry in my life~)

Met an IMU antique attached to the hospital…

Fooled around in the maternal clinic~

It was one of the more happier experiences i had in IMU. I got to know certain people better and a little bit more. And i got my car to clock 300KMs with half a tank of petrol. The group that i was assigned to, the people who rode along with me in my car, Ghi Waie, Wei Lin, Abirami and Fang Han could not have better chemistry as we put case history information on paper, devise plays to get a message accross, and just be plain lame when we were in the car. You people are great!

We got to catch a movie too on the second day! Almost the entire group of us went! We watched Batman: The Dark Knight. It was one of Heath Ledger’s last movies to be made before he overdosed himself with sleeping pills. And his performance was mind boggling. Honestly, he played the Joker so well, it’s as if he was really the joker (quoted from Michelle). Nobody else can replace him. No one can be a better Joker than him. Even in the near future, when people are still making Batman movies, they will look upon this movie and Heath Ledger as a yardstick to surpass. And i got to watch Journey to the Centre of the Earth as well~ Not so much good for the story, but the effects they made along with the 3D glasses offered me something i could not have had outside that movie. I would recommend it if you are ready to fork out a cool RM17 for an hour and a half movie.

GP posting coming up next week…

SkyBar next Friday…

Tony Phua next weekend…

Hope i’ll have enough energy left for studying~~

Fusion Fiesta

12th of July marks a very big day for IMU music lovers! I had the greatest of all opportunities, to see 2 of IMU’s finest bands in action at Klang Parade’s Help Institute College of Technology’s Fusion Fiesta Battle of the Bands.

Basement Static:

This band has been in IMU for roughly around 2 years~ The band members are vocalist Wan Ming Hui, Lead Guitarist Kelvin George Thomas, Rhythm Guitarist Anthony Stanislaus, Bassist (haha, weird man bassist) Lee Seng Chye, and Drummer Fred Daniels.

They performed 2 songs which I thought were perfectly executed. The 2 songs were Falling to pieces by Velvet Revolver, and All My Life by Foo Fighters! I loved the Foo Fighters~ a song that actually works you up!

Basement Static – Falling to Pieces Cover

Basement Static -All My Life Cover

The next ban i would think, is a relatively new band called Funk Magic which is composed of vocalist Rachel Tan, Guitarist Wan Ming Hui, Bassist Lee Seng Chye, Keyboardist Eizat, and Drummer Fred Daniels. They sang 2 songs too~ Stevie Wonder’s Superstition, and Frank Sinatra’s Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

Funk Magic – Superstition Cover

Funk Magic – Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

In the end, Funk Magic got 1st place in the Battle of the Bands, and Basement Static got 3rd place! A very good performance indeed by both the bands. IMU also won 3rd in the overall category for bands, and Ming Hui and Rachel both bagged the best male and female performer category as well!

Well done!

P/S: The vids are crappy because it was taken with my LG KU990 Handphone. It would not have been crappy if i did not sat so close to the amplifiers~ Ooops~

-

After the gig, we went to have a couple of beers at some shopping complex called Centro. Supposedly the Plaza Mont Kiara of Klang~

We ordered this beer tower and gulped every last drop of it! Good stuff that was.

yes, that is Seng Chye's nose getting burned

And with good company, nothing in the world could be better.

And while Ming Hui went to the Gents, we took a picture of his seat.

All was good that weekend!

Hard Candy

Hard Candy is one hell of a sicko movie… Everything is not what it seems. It’s about this little girl trying to punish this paedophile for his raping and killing this 1, ONE, child or adolescent. There was this one scene, where Hailey, the main character, castrates Jeff, the paedophile. She slowly taunts Jeff, making him beg, threat, bargain, negotiate, and plea for her sympathy.

This i think is one of the few movies which actually stimulate my feelings. A feeling which for a long time i have kept silent. Ignited by the fact that, although the paedophile was guilty, no an should ever feel the entire process of castration awake and with local anaesthetic. It is this feeling of helplessness, and the character which enjoys watching people being helpless that makes me fired up.

This fire, is not that type of gung-ho enthusiasm type, but this sense of … Hate… Coming from my gut and moving towards my forehead, feeling my temporal artery beat. Few movies can do so, and as of this moment.

I am feeling hate.

-

I hate it when you say you are helpless. In fact you aren’t helpless at all. You just don’t want to help yourself. Pick yourself up and don’t just lay there in the sewage pond. Get up!

I hate it when people are looking out for you and your fucking ass, only to be stepped on and be smothered by your feet all over the ground.

I hate it when you buy excessive food, and you don’t finish it, and push it to other people. I’m not saying that i don’t appreciate you being sweet, but it’s just 1 time too many and i hope you ask me first before you buy something for me. I really really don’t want to waste any of your money already. I owe you too much.

I hate it when you push responsibilities around, involving other people who, and because of your shit, they have to sacrifice their time to mop up the mess u made.

I hate it when you whine, and you don’t take action, and you whine some more, but at the back, you’re just doing your thing, hoping that it somehow happens.

I hate it when I want to talk, you have to butt in, or strike down whatever i want to say. If whatever you want to say is so much more important than mine, then just say so, and i will keep my silence to myself. ( I need to work on this too…)

I hate it when you just drift off to him/her, sacrificing us. I know it can be nice to be 1 on 1, but i hope someday you will know how i feels.

I hate it when I am so gullible to other people, unable to just put a firm NO with a simple “i just don’t want to ” reason.

-

Yea, my hate is being reduced every time i open a new “i hate it when…” till the point i have no hate at all, and am feeling quite happy now.

Am so sorry if i hurt anyone, am being as ambiguous as possible already… And it’s just my feelings le and it can happen to me too. And if it does, please be as frank (or un-frank) as me, and tell it to my face.

GTA

Oddly enough, i feel like stealing a car suddenly. Then go on a joy ride with my accomplices down to Johor Baru, or go up north to Perlis. Then ditch the car some place, steal another one, and come back here. Skillfully avoiding detection. While stealing the car, I feel the best way is to just stand in the middle of the road, stop an oncoming random car, go to the driver’s side window, and while he shouts “get off the street ass hole!”, I hold out my 9mm Glock17, and put a 20cent coin wide bullet hole through his skull, breaking the window, unlock the car door, and drag his dead weight out of the car and on the tarmac.

Restrictions are keeping me from doing stuff like these. They’re fun in my mind to play with, but i often think of the consequences of those actions, the righteousness of that behaviour and the impact it can cause to the family members of the unlucky random driver. There are too many restrictions in my life right now. Money is one, family is another. If both weren’t an issue, as in i could not care less for those 2, i won’t be the same person sitting here, typing this blog post out right now. There might not even be this bengah.wordpress.com.For all i know, i might not even be in medical school. Being an upcoming drug lord doesn’t sound too bad as well.

Fang Han just said I would be caught stealing a car. But that would depend on the competence of the Royal Police Force of Malaysia. And judging by current news and statistics, they are improving.

Some people might think these as acts of vice. Well, they are acts of vice. But whether they are right or wrong, it is still up to us to decide. As Dr. Lim once told us, search deep down inside, is it right or wrong? Ask this same question to a Mafia Boss, and you will get straight positive answer. Ask a drug addict, and he will give you the same answer. Ask a clubber, who just wants to get high, and he will still give you the same positive answer.

So why do we restrict ourselves in the first place? Is it fear? Fear of the law? Fear of consequences? Fear of social restrictions and expectation? Fear of the government? If there weren’t us people/citizens, would there still be law or even a government? If there weren’t restrictions, would the anorexic girl next door still be anorexic? If there weren’t restrictions, would we still need to strive day after day at work just make two ends of an electric wire to form a circuit? If there weren’t restriction, would humans still be defined as humans?

And why do we want so many things in life in the first place? What creates this want for gadgets and gizmos, girlfriends and soul mates, cars and social circles. All those we can live without, but we still strive for it, expecting it to reward ourselves in one way or another. More often than not, we get bored with the reward soon enough, and we strive yet again for bigger rewards, newer rewards. We crave for things we do not need, and why is this? Why do we need material possessions? I need it too, i just don’t understand the need for it. Sure it makes me happy, it makes you happy, but in the end, you’ll still end up having an empty plastic shell with some very nice drawings outside of it.

Maybe all the questions i asked are very easily answered. Answered by very simple explanations and beliefs and theories. If all things can be so simple, then Philosophy would not be invented.

Groove

Got a chance to go hang out with the music club gang again! This time, at Groove Junction Sri Hartamas~ Seng Chye, Kelvin, Sanjeet, Anthony, and I arrived late at the venue, due to the unpunctual-ness that is us Malaysians. Renuka was there to join the action too~

The main purpose of us going there this time, was to go watch an upcoming singer/guitarist/song composer from Malaysia. His name is Rendra Zawawi, and he plays these very nice songs on the acoustic and sings along to them too. I don’t know why, but i find people who can do this well are seriously talented people!

Sorry for the unclear pictures, was quite dark there~

He even calls upon the talents of few of his friends, to spice up his already chilli padi laden music~ These friends of his are experts in the harmonica, and as the picture above shows, the saxophone! Truly a wonderful experience to my ears, as well as my eyes as i saw him perform various weird and complicated chords, shuffling through the entire fretboard. A true master. I particularly liked the songs Si Bulat and Cari Cari Kawan~ Both i feel very Malaysian.

There, i drank one of the most expensive beers i had in my life (most expensive being this bottle of Guiness i had in Bangsar). It cost us RM21 each~ A burn in my coffers sure, but the company sure made up for it and soon, everyone was talking crap and I enjoyed the music further in my slight state of highness (i really wasn’t High!!!!).

Later on, we went to Hartamas Square to have dinner. It was 11 plus and we haven’t had dinner. Except for Kelvin who has the pleasure of a home with home cooked meals served by his mum. Miss home quite a lot~ And after dinner, we went to Uncle Don’s to Shisha.

Two chimneys in action~

The day did not stop there at 1am in the morning. We headed down to Damansara, and we played Call of Duty 4 and Counter Strike till I can barely tahan-ed… I kinda liked COD (cash on delivery~lolz) 4  because it has this thing where your character gets experience and gets promoted from the lowest Private level, to Sargent and so on. Coolness… But i don’t think my Laptop can support such a high requirement game. Bummer.

Today, i had the privilege to watch Hancock~ Handjob is not your ordinary superhero movie. It’s not those regular human beings, suddenly finding themselves packed with super-ness, and fighting a sudden appearing super villain, whom which is beaten the crap out, and ends the movie by giving a big kiss on the main female protagonist. It is much more complicated and more satisfying too! The humor part i like, Will Smith being the funny man he is, mixes it with his ability to blend into any character role you can give him, makes Hancock a love-hate character! A must watch for any movie connoisseurs!

Oh~ and i must say,

Charles Theron is freaking beautiful in the movie~ Go watch!!

Pathetic

Till today i never thought about it.

That it could not be possible.

Ousted by the very people i have planted my roots in.

I’m not mad or anything.

It’s just this feeling…

So weird,

so lonely.

This is the feeling i am going to have when i grow up.

And i am prematurely having it now.

I don’t want it.

But it’s being forced into my hands,

I don’t like having shit on my hands.

Alas,

There is not such a thing as friends.
