Angry Bird-The Black Bomber!
Personally, this is my favourite 'mass-destructing-weapon' in the game. It is tanky, has high penetration power and it can SELF DESTRUCT! Don't you just love this mean black bird? ( Beware, I see one flying just above you...)

I am a LONE WOLF......
Personally, I do feel that EduQuestCamp is more meaningful for me, not because I'd have 2 buddies in the programme, but EduCampQuest is for those who are eligible to get the scholarships. While I have no reason to tag myself or my family as 'RICH', I really need the money if I want to enter UTP.
EduCamp is only for those who are interested to study in UTP, while the expenses( definitely not Cheap!) are going to be paid by yourself ......
I'm still hesitating to attend the programme but for the sake of experience...I think I'll give it a shot, albeit a long one.

It's the DAY!
Hi guys. It is D-Day , today. SPM result is coming out, in less than 2 hours !( perhaps the results are already in principal or whoever-in-charge's hand)Procrastination is mankind's biggest enemy. I had been planning to do a quick analysis since last year...... but it's so hard to move on to the typing stage. So, it's time to end it!
Basically, practice makes perfect. So, practice more to get better result.
Science Subjects
Physics
Physics is my favourite subject among the Science subjects. It explains why things happen.
And, that's why you'll need some imagination to visualize the process. When you can 'see' the process, like a video in your brain, you are nearly halfway through the progress.
Next, try to understand why does a scenario happen in the 'video'. Split it into several parts, or much better, into points. (which is how markers give marks to your answers) Relate your 'parts' with another parts. Try to visualize the whole process and make sure you know what you are talking about, not memorizing the entire paragraph, since you'll be panicking when you are in the hall sitting for exam, and you can't really memorize all of the words. The words will just become jumbled up and make no sense at all.
Chemistry
Hmm...... Not my favourite, but it is still okay. Maybe it is because of the way of education. Memorize, memorize, memorize and spill it all out during exam, then you have none left inside =_=
My teacher said, the chapter Salt is feared by students. They are confused in this chapter. Many experiments have to be 'memorized', many compounds have to be memorized and much much more.
I could only share techniques to remember the colour of certain ions, which is, by doing experiments.
FOCUS when you are doing lab works, because you won't have that much chances to enter the lab.(at least for me, as the syllabus does not really require experiments, unless you have plenty of time) Learning by visual images is much more efficient than pure text, which is why they suggest students to draw pictures about the topic, or use a flow chart. Observe the colour for each compound and the changes after the reaction.
I wasn't realised about this and i can't catch up to what the teacher was saying during the experiment. The colour changes during oxidation and reduction reaction were memorized. It was after I joined a Chemistry Experiment Programme( could not remember the name..... was in BM, Hari Kimia or something like that) I started to think about the ways of learning Chemistry. I observed how Iron(II) ions changed to brown colour (Iron (III) now) so fast, and the teacher said, it was such a beautiful green colour, but it changed so fast.
And, same technique as Physics, split the process ( for example the Industrial processes) into names, parts and points. Materials and physical requirements such as temperature and air pressure are also important.
A funny name for this is 'divide and conquer', as your brain would not be stuck with a truckload of information from various subjects at the same time.
Biology
Some of my friends actually like Biology, but they can't score well. Now, they are taking Biology related courses in college.
Personally, I hate Biology. Sometimes, I was fascinated by the pictures and knowledge in comic books (not text book nor reference books), but just after I realised I live in the real world...I lost my mood to study.
Actually, same technique could be used for all three subjects, but I was not motivated. The points of the answers are not clearly divided like the other two subjects. They are more like an article to me and do not have anyway to clean out the useless words.
The most important aspect for me is to completely understand all the topics. Don't just leave it there or skip it. Try to understand it with the help from your teachers and friends.
Science subjects for now..... Other subjects? Depends on my level of procrastination. :D
( kindly point out my mistakes or add in relevant info here because it has already been three months since the exam. I am regretting now T_T)

What am I up to
Hmmm, been building this at the same time with my Rayquaza...It seems like its progress is now faster than the green dragon.
Now, it's time to start the Backpack!
The waist part.
Never thought that taking photos of each part could give such sense of satisfaction .
( Sorry for the blur photo. This was taken using my phone .__.)
p/s It is a SD Strike Freedom papercraft, in case you don't know Gundam XD

OMG, I edited my template =0
So, are you surprised to see my 'new' template?No? Awww, I am sad.
Anyway, the template is still the good old template, the only different thing is it now has a Featured Content Slidebar from this awesome blog---Bloggermint.com.
Here is the link http://www.bloggermint.com/2010/02/featured-content-slider-for-blogger-using-jquery/comment-page-4/#comment-27588
Feel free to drop your comment. I am still a newbie in coding , and it is already like a giant to me.
The slidebar is not in its final form yet, maybe I'll make it into 5 tabs instead of 4. The contents will be updated from time to time . ( depends on my mood and time of course =D)
See ya in the next featured post :D

Car, Here I COME!
Guess why I didn't update for so long?Laziness? Hmmm, maybe.
Think deeper, it's related to this topic.
I was busy with my motorcycle and car training.
I really hate anything that is related to government... The process is unbelievably slow...But I have no choice, you need to pass the test before you can actually drive...
And my agent..... he is the 'tak apa' type. You done practicing? Ok, wait for ME.
And the wait lasted 1-2 hours, usually...
Enough of the rant.... I've finally passed my motorcycle test.
It's time for another waiting process...

Chronicles-My Thought
Watched Chronicles on Sunday.
Went to the cinemas with 3 friends, somehow, I got the feeling that I was the 'lightbulb'(?) between my couple friends. Too bad LW was missing in the action, in his shop LOL.
Anyway, one of my friends watched the trailer and told me that Chronicles was not his first choice. He said the trailer was not interesting and he did not get what is going on in that trailer. Ouch, that was a bummer. Maybe I would just fall asleep for the first time in the cinema, I thought .
I would not do a review here since my skills suck and there are tons of them, and some are really good if you Google them.
I think it is a nice and refreshing movie.
Many complained that this movie sucks or they wanted to sleep or they didn't understand a thing or they had wasted their money etc....
Maybe, just maybe, they were used to those action movies, where all those blasting sounds and stunning CG effects just came flying towards you. I am not a frequent customer of a cinema. I am fine with some silent scene in the movie, I am fine with the not-so-flashy effect.
The movie was shot like Paranormal Activity. The stories were told in videos recorded by cameras. All sort of cameras. From handycam to CCTV in the hospitals. A totally new experience for me. Some said they could not understand a thing because the shooting angle keeps changing and looks like a jumbled mess from youtube videos. I am perfectly fine with the story.
“What lies in our power to do, lies in our power not to do.”
Aristotle
This is basically what I learnt from the movie. Andrew had great powers, but he used it in the wrong way. I was thinking, maybe he could just steal some medicine from the store for his mother. Why would he need to rob the petrol station? Then he would not end up in the rampaging situation afterwards.
I watched the trailer afterwards, and thought it was fine. The interesting part is in the comments though. They said you have basically watched the movie if you had watched the trailer.
I am so glad I did not watch the trailer. :D

Little green fingers...
While Rayquaza is a large and high pokemon, its fingers are surpringly small.Almost thought of throwing it into the bin when I saw the designs....
Ah well, the right arm is almost finished, leaving the left arm with its little green thingy on the paper.
Practice does make something perfect, the first finger is....squashed-like. Lines are visible everywhere. Now, it's the third finger and I'm quite satisfied.
I hope the rest will be a breeze~

Chinese New Year Open House In Astaka
Our Prime Minister came to "Padang Lapangan Terbang" ( A field for aeroplanes, did not see a single one since I moved in though) in Sitiawan for the celebration of Chinese New Year yesterday.After passing the traffic jams all the way to Padang Astaka ( this one is more commonly known among the residents here), WOW, cars and motorcycles everywhere! They just parked wherever a spot was available, from sides or the roads, in the outside of the field and finally the designated parking area, the filed itself. No lines, no signs, just traffic polices telling the correct ways to go. Poor guys...

Early Happy Chinese New Year~~
It's not even New Year's Eve but I would like to wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year here!! ^_^Since the zodiac of the year is Dragon, a Dragon-type Pokemon is coming up for the celebration!
It is Rayquaza and I've only done it until its neck. Heavily detailed but I like the design so much, I don't really mind the time to build it.

Day 3 & 4~
Day 3Since we reached Johor, we just visited the first school which my parents taught in and reunion with old colleagues. That used up the whole morning =O ( You know, all those chit-chats, old memories...and the list goes on ...)
Lunch time, someone was going to buy us lunch ^^ Hooray! He was the son of my parents' landlord when they were still in Johor. ( heard that he was quite a nice person, unfortunately he passed away before I have the chance to meet him )
We went to a small town called Sagil before the evening. Parents of one of the old colleagues lived in that area.
We then went to our "hotel" for that night, my parents' old colleagues house. Guess there's benefits when you have more friends. =)
That pretty much sums up the 3rd day. Off to 4th day!

A Famosa Day 2
Okay, back to the long and boring post >.<
We headed to " Golfer Terrace" for breakfast. The hotel only provided 2 sets of breakfast (buffet), so we bought another 2 sets for adults and 1 more for child and these 3 sets of breakfast costed us RM 77.70.
Each adult set was priced at RM 25 and RM17 for the child set. Add in the service charge and government tax, here you go. Seriously, they just want to earn from the food! There wasn't many varieties for food, but we couldn't eat that much anyway. However, the roasted beans served there were cold, like refrigerated but weren't reheated enough. It just felt awful. I also couldn't understand why the scrambled eggs there were tasteless. Even my house made scrambled eggs are more delicious.
The entrance to the Animal World Safari and Water World is the same. We paid RM3 to get a "Parking Ticket" in order to enter the area.
We picked Animal World Safari combo-ed with lunch. We got no other options anyway. They offered Animal World Safari only, Water World only and Animal World Safari and Water World, all provided with a set of lunch. They were just forcing you to buy their foods, so you can't find KFC or MacDonald here.
The price was RM48 for an adult and RM 38 for a child, which totaled RM230 .><

Danbo
Look! It's time for a short update.It's DANBO time!
Looks a bit melancholic...
I don't know why Danbo could catch my attention. It is between "cute" and not so cute". It is between " simple" and "complex". But I believe other Danbo fans just like it because it is Danbo, nothing else.
This model is quite simple, pretty straight-forward if your follow the instructions.
The articulation is superb, if you compared it to other paper crafts, because it can pose some fighting actions! ( just joking)
The head can go 360 degree, go front and backward and bend towards left and right a little bit.
Same goes with the hand, 360 degree turns , front and backward movements and you can also straighten the hands.
The legs can actually go front and backwards, but I don't really get the meaning of doing so, as it could become unstable. So, the legs are kinda "fixed" at its pose now. The box is obstructing the legs too.
Now, time for some photos:
About the same height as the chewing gum container.
Hello, how are you? I am friendly.
Close shot of its main box.
Head.
Side
Nice @ss. Meh, nothing to look at, really.
I guess, it is time to say goodbye. Aww~

A Famosa Day 1
When you see this post, it has been almost a week after my little trip with my family to A Famosa and Johor.
What we planned:
A Famosa( Melaka)----- Kluang( Johor)------Sagil( Johor)---Gunung Ledang Waterfall( Sagil)
Seems pretty boring huh? I would call this as a "Family Trip in an Old Friends Reunion"
Family Trip- A Famosa of course. OFR( Old Friends Reunion)--- It's all about Johor.
Before I go into details, let's talk about what I have learnt.( Sounds boring~)
Pleasure of a vacation is of course included, but I got something unexpected: a little information of my mom and dad's romantic experience. ( like in How I Met Your Mom) They met in Kluang, then lived in the same house among their old friends. They taught in the same school, then they got separated with their friends when they got transferred out of that school.
Thus, I got the opportunity to visit that school, met with some (senior) teachers/ parents' friends.
