Toilet:p

The last time i blogged has been a long time eh, now i shall start with something after such a long and long and long time since i last posted something just so you guys can read it and avoid saying that i didn't update my blog and let me tease my friends for not updating their blog thus this post is very important to me as it is quintessential or you can say it is the cornerstone for my plans to tease those friends of mine who hadn't been updating their blog just because they are lazy or for whatever reasons as you can see and agree that they should update their blog more frequently


. To save money, one has to traverse through great lengths to achieve it. When you are desperate and all alone in a foreign land, that's just what you have to do... Even when it is early in the morning and you have your usual nature's call to answer... I being my usual wise and thrifty self, decided to tolerate the tormenting urge to defecate and ride the 45 minutes train to my school to settle it. What does this has to do with money??? WELL, I can save on toilet paper and the flushing water. Besides, my school's toilet has a electrically warmed seat, a massager and it can squirt water to sterilized my butt. How nice is it to answer nature's call this way. Ahhhh, the blissful experience couldn't possibly be imagined without having a look at the picture:p ( FINALLY GOT PHOTOES IN MY BLOG LIAO LEH, GAM DONG LEH GAM DONG LEH)



Now tis is the control panel, DUAL CORE i mean dual roll tissue rolls and the flush button but they usually flush whenever i stand-.- and they tend to flush quite a few times while i am rubbing my butt with the tissue paper-.- not eco friendly i would say as it tends to waste water. I shall zoom on the control panel on the next photo.


This is the control panel, the upper three big buttons are stop squirt and i dunno what's the third one- .-

small four buttons

dunno what remove smell, massage, squirt front or back:p

the knob is the strength of the flush or squirt? dunno:p


then there is the on off button and dunno what clean up and then a screen to show the temperature of the water aimed at your butt and the temperature of the toilet seat(not exactly temperature but degree of hotness). Now Let's move on to the toilet Herself(It's a wonder why i prefer to refer to toilets and electronics as her and while some of my friends errrr :p)


Check it out, sleeky clean and simple. One really has to admire the architecture, the curves of the toilet and the smooth texture of the material. Once you rest your butts on this you would refuse to get up~~~~~~

Check out the thickness. It is electrically heated :p


That's all for the high tech toilet post:p








PS: guess i exaggerated a lot-. -

-.- saja -.-

Hmm, yesterday, a friend of mine said something that struck me deep......


Friend's comment:'' when you say something you kinda spoke in a long way and people have to think for a while to get what do you want to say. This is apparent even when you are asking teachers questions. They need to think for a while to answer it. '' This comment was obtained after I told him that my question wasn't understood by the guy in the store that he has to find someone who understands chinese to speak with me. At first, I thought ok..maybe it was because my japanese is not good enough but... After I asked another friend of mine (Usually I refer her as something else but I shall elevate her status for now since I am in her debt), she said that what my friend said was true.


T.T Tears flew through my cheeks and dashed through my lips, leaving behind a salty trail of moisten skin and a distorted sense of self. A subtle and quiet phrase ran through my mind... ''WHAT THE FREAKING KANASAI, I HAVE BEEN LIKE THIS AND I NEVER EVEN REALISED NOR WAS I EVER INFORMED''


After that she did say that it might be because of the proper way in which you speak. Oh... hmmm and I even realize that maybe because I was so used to prevent something I hate most aka misunderstanding, I tend to try to explain everything longer just to make sure its wickedness kept its head down.


So whatever, this is a half hearted attempt to blog something after having rested for so long but what I want is this. Please answer me that do I tend to speak too long without the points clearly define or something? Or what exactly is the way that you think I speak.


Kum siah ya:p

Daily Life in Japan

Daily Life in Japan


Well, It's almost a month since I have been here. I guess I have gotten used to it, even though I did got lost for at least five times in places where directions were given. It really feels so different than Penang. At the very least, you have like people everywhere. The population scale is on a whole new level. I really can be considered a boy from a village or something here. The only problem with this is that the trains can make you empathize the Tunas in the cans.

In Penang, we can basically get anywhere by car within 35 minutes. Here, getting anywhere by train is so common and travelling for 2 hours to and from work is not particularly weird. In the mornings.... the trains are very packed. Before I got my electronic dictionary aka Nintendo DS(Shall elaborate on this later), I have to carry a four kilogram dictionary around and my textbooks. There was once when I was holding tightly to the handle and got pushed inside with my bag forcing my back until my whole body was vibrating. Lately though, I didn't experience such level of density so it is indeed a good thing for my back plus I no longer carry something this big.


My breakfast everyday would either be breads or bananas. I find it cheaper that way. Lunch would be within a budget of rm 11 and dinner would probably be less. Sometimes I go to McDonald and spend Rm 6 for two burgers. Rice balls, Beef rice aka Gyudon, vegetables and so on are part of my daily meals. My house mates do cook sometimes so I can actually save more. I have to wash the plates in exchange:P


美味しい!!!!!

Saitama prefecture, Fujimi City, East Mizuhodai is the place I'm living in. The train station is directly beneath my apartment. My room is small when viewed by my friends but I find it fine especially when my place cost less than half of the usual hostels. I got a big wardrobe in my room. Thanks to that I can actually have enough space to store all the winter clothing I brought here. I keep on using the same clothes here cause more than half of what I brought is for winter. Now it is in a transition phase between spring and summer. So the weather is just nice.


What are the luxuries which I actually spend on since I arrive here? The first one would probably be what I proclaim as my wife or girlfriend. -.- Ya, It's weird but you are talking about me here. So allow me to introduce you the stylish, sexy and superb darling for me. SONY VAIO FZ CUSTOM MADE (It is cheaper by being custom made and is assembled in Japan). In addition, I got a Logitech (called Logicool here) VX Revolution mouse to match her :) The mice is ergonomically designed and thus very comfortable to use. I got a Nintendo DS as my electronic dictionary. It is cheaper than other electronic dictionaries and I gain a gaming console in the progress. Ain't that just wonderful? Ok la -.- luxuries stop here-.- The rest I got to hold on to my urges and whatever.


My Sexy VAIO FZ :P
The SUPER DUPER COMFORTABLE MOUSE
This Lil Fella saved me a lot of frustrations and Inconvenience:p

Getting Lost

Staying in Penang, we probably don't have much chance to get lost i suppose, or at least we are so used to our small Island over there. I am here in Tokyo for a week now and guess how many times did i get myself stranded in the middle of Tokyo.

Three times-.-

I admit i have never been a guy with a sense of direction but then i shouldn't get myself lost this badly-. -

The train stations here are complex mind you- .- There are so many exits from every station too. I made one wrong exit and got myself on the other side of the place which i intended to go. Lucky for me managing to get to school in time. My school has two buildings situated a distance of 10 minutes walk. The other time i got lost is when i was walking from one building to the other.

For the third time.... Well... I didn't actually get lost but it is kinda like a long walk. I walked a BIG U shape and then a straight line when I can just walk a straight line to reach the place i wanted to go-.-

Walking alone in the evening T.T It was so cold T.T emotionally though not physically but you guys do know that emotions can have an effect physically.

Oh well... At least i did crap a bit about my stay in japan :P BUH BYE =P

My Height


Most of my friends around me are quite tall by my standards. Oh come on, when you are this short, everyone around you seems like they are a giant-. - Just by standing near them would make me feel so damn inferior. You tall guys might never felt it this way but try to imagine yourself as a shorty among the giants. The feeling is so tormenting, like a small house being surrounded by skyscrapers. The cute little house would feel isolated and lonely that way. That's not all. When they are talking, they are looking down at you, assuming a superior stance. You have to look up to them as if they are your boss, feeling so small of yourself, not to mention the strain in the neck when you are talking with them for hours. Besides talking with them, you have to consider walking with them too. Being short, you have to walk 1.2 times as fast as them to be able to catch up. (the magnitude is inversely proportional with your shortness) What's worse, an article by Cosmopolitan Magazine states that women are most attracted to males 1.1 times of their own height. Women usually desire men of at least their own height too.


WHAT CAN I DO TO CHANGE THIS FATE!?


I'm praying that I'm a late bloomer and that my growth hasn't been activated yet:P I'm aiming for 181cm EVEN IF IT CAN ONLY BE FULFILLED IN MY DREAMS :P





MAY MY HEIGHT BE HIAO





PS: I know I know- .- height doesn't determine everything. I'm just trying to write some stuff and well I believe these are some problems faced by people like me.

DEFEAT


The SPM results came out today and I performed well below my own expectations. With my innate responsibility avoidance skills, I can find countless excuses for my disastrous performance. But I don't think that's what I should be seeking. I'm thinking over currently. Ever since I saw my results my whole inner emotions are like so calm.... The sort of calm before a storm, the calm where you know something is wrong somewhere, the calm with a blend of emptiness and loneliness. What can I say for myself? Did I really hate those subjects until I can't spend more effort on them? Or was it because I was assured of the path which I wished to take that I let it go? Somehow I felt that I'm missing something... That I didn't fight along with my friends or did I? I myself couldn't give a definite answer. Did I commit myself to it definitely anyway....?


One can learn more from defeat than victory. The loser has more to learn as he needs to learn more. I have to admit, people around me really did work a lot harder than me. The sign of my school position that has dropped is probably a reflection my complacency. How much have I rot to reach this? Ignoring subjects I hate as if it's a cool thing to do and only focus on what I like. Is that cool or childish? Or is it because I know it is of no use to me?


I have always believe that I can control my emotions. However, the experience lately with the way I anticipate events with sweat and an accelerated heart beat expresses otherwise. And the aftermath of this result taking event shows the best I can do is to shut down my emotions. Hollowing out the inside with no feelings of disappointment and sadness or whatsoever. It's like a hollow shell, so empty yet eager, shouting out to be filled. How long would this emotional shutdown persist I cannot answer nor do I have a reason to. The feeling of flushing the hopes of others down the toilet is probably the worst. To plunder something that belongs to myself only has a cost to be paid by myself but to destroy others' hopes is really what I don't want to do but I did it. It might be a long time before I did be able to redeem myself. Until then.....


I just need to STAND UP, GIVE MYSELF TWO SLAPS ON THE FACE, THROW THIS DARK HISTORY BEHIND ME AND MOVE ON. IT'S TIME THAT SOMETHING HIT ME HARD IN THE FACE. IT'S TIME THAT I WAKE UP FROM MY DEEP SLUMBER. IT'S HIGH TIME THAT I SHOULD FIGHT THE WAY I BELIEVE I SHOULD FIGHT. NO MORE PITIFUL EXCUSES BUT JUST PLAIN AND EFFECTIVE ACTION.

My Feelings....

MY FEELINGS





Seeing you from afar, is ever so delightful and promising... It seems like a light of hope, a beacon which carries excitement. You always fuel my eagerness and anxiety, making me willingly, giving you my all...


When you look so plain yet approachable or when you seem to be in a deep thought and distant, the various faces you exposed...... It tickles my desire, driving me passionately to seek to learn more about you, to know you more...... Even though I never so much understand you, I still want to... The more I learn about you the more I realized...... I still know so little about you. The meager knowledge, comparable to my puny existence.


If I ever get the opportunity to get closer, to the love of my dreams... you... I would hold you so dearly and tightly. Letting you go, I'm reluctant or unwilling. To caress the shy and adorable you is what I would love to do. Ever since I know you, you are always so, reserved and hesitating to open yourself. How I fear that I would stress you when I'm trying to open you up, to know you more... Even then, I still thought of embracing you...


Close to my face, your subtle scent.... is alluring... The freshness invigorates my deadened soul, energized to study you more closely. More distance removed allow me to study another side of you despite not removing the wall from understanding you deeper, yet I'm still so happy to know you more....





















FOR MY BOOK

My blood type

It's been a while since the last post. Please don't blame me for not posting as I usually write my blog during exams when I can't do anything except to sleep. During SPM, I was not allowed to bring any papers out so it would be pointless to write. For the pass months, I have been slacking so there isn't any updates being made until that FREAKING SOONY RANK ME AS PRIVATE (the lowest among all his rank) for my inactiveness.


So now I'm back. I have decided to blog on my blood type. I heard that it is very popular in Japan. They believe that it determines your personality and I find it quite accurate. So I think I shall blog a bit on it. Hope you guys will like it.


According to a website I found on the net, people of my blood type has the following negative traits. I'm unforgiving, easily offended, too conservative, nitpicker, hard to know and is a PLAYBOY!!!! The last one came as a shock though :P but shall elaborate on that later.



Unforgiving: Good luck to all my friends:P Now I'm posting this online to notify everyone that I'm an unforgiving devil. So be sure not to step on my tail or you guys will regret it. My supposed trait would be that I remember every single BAD thing you guys did to me and I shall remember it FOREVA. For those who would like to apologize soon can post it on the comments. :P


Easily Offended: This trait is probably what makes the previous trait DEADLY. By complementing each other, It means you guys have plenty of opportunities to OFFEND me and be marked under my “to be revenged” list.:P


Too Conservative: Come on-.- I am so updated with the latest ... ... ar... GAMES, ya games. Don't say that i'm only updated with games cause i'm also quite up to the latest stuff such as ... many things which I can't possibly list ~~~ Does that make me conservative ? Of course not, right? My friends called me uncle but that doesn't mean an uncle is a conservative folk.


Nitpicker: Am I really a nitpicker- .- I don't find myself complaining much though honestly- .-


Hard to know: Well, the people who called me uncle can predict me inside out- .-


PLAYBOY: OMG, I'm the 17+ who never even have a girlfriend before. Now if this were to be my personality I really don't know d :P



The first two might be true in a way but the rest I think I need you guys to verify it for me. So please post more on the comments on what you guys think :P KUM SIAH


PS: This post is drafted earlier than the previous post

A fear which might not be realized until it is too late

A fear which might not be realized until it is too late.


18 years of life passed by. I believe that we are on the verge of flipping the most exciting chapter of our lives. Amidst the rumble and buzz of our newfound freedom, are conducive circumstances for clouding our eyes from the less discernible. I hope that this post can lay away the fear of my best friend and to prevent my readers( YEAH I know, damn little) from missing something important.


Our lives during tertiary education are bound to be very colourful and flavourful. We might be so damn busy with our assignments and lectures that we “don't” have time for everything. Or, we might be free, enjoying ourselves while studying as we don't have that much assignments as compared to our secondary school life. In the case of the latter, we might just stack more entertainment into it and be “busy” again.


The subtle things which we might miss are about our parents. By being released from the chains that have binded us since small, we might step into a trap of filling our lives with too much work or entertainment. Perhaps one might say that work (assignments, lectures, etc) is inevitable but then again it doesn't mean that we ought to be completely overwhelmed by it. Nobody should be so busy with work that he/she could not set aside some time for their parents Likewise, entertainment should not displace its place either.


Time feeds and excretes ever so slowly, making it slow for us to realize what it consumed and spit. Youths are digested and experiences are formed. That's the equation when we apply the concept of time to us. Since we are still “young”, our youth reserves are still abundant, enabling us to convert it to experiences that we seek and thrown upon us. On the other facet of the present, it creeps, little by little, devouring the ages of our parents while succumbing us to the ecstasy it bestowed upon us. We are given the pleasures of achieving what we seek while it spits only signs of old age to the seasoned.


What we should be aware is that we desire a life without regrets, to be able to look back later in life and not ask the question :” If only I had .....”. Let's not be too busy with our new lives and only find the time to communicate with our parents once in a blue moon. We know that they care for us and that's why it should be reciprocated. Merely spending an hour or two with them in a week is enough to make them feel and look younger. They fought for their dreams and hopes in their prime and now we became their current dreams and hopes. Life without it is dull and dead, let's not rob them of it knowing that they cared. Remember to love them while and whenever you can. They don't demand much, just a little time and patience..... That makes all the difference.
