“Men shouldn’t act like faggots” [Eve]

needless1

Quoted from Needless, for now seemed to be Eve’s catch phrase. Started airing in Japan 2nd July, I just watched ep.1 looked like fun although most times could get very childish. Anime styling is much like IMO Gurren Lagaan.

Story? Much like childish version of Heroes, on top of normal human there are some with special abilities known as Needless, some can transform themselves (like character Eve Neuschwanstein), some can copy/memorize abilities (like character Blade ‘the priest). I’m sure there will be many more characters along the way. For now I will tag this anime as potentially fun to watch.

 

 

This is Cruz Schild, one of the main character – currently without ability – probably this will be the character with the most development in this series

Cruz Schild - Yamada

For unknown reason Eve prefer to call him Yamada; far right on screenshot below is Gido the scientist.

YAMADA Gido, asking Cruz: And what would your name be?

Cruz: Cruz.. Cruz Schild

Eve: All right, I’ll shorten it to Yamada!

All looking confused on how she came to that shorter name.. ha ha!!

 

 

 

Blade (nickname Priest) – the one with Zero (aka memorize) ability

Blade - Priest 2

Blade - Priest

zero memorize

 

 

Eve Neuschwanstein, the one with Doppelganger (aka transformation) ability. Appears to be a dumb/silly girl with sizable boobs. Apparently Blade often steps on her face.

finally on Facebook.. just out from my coconut home..

its been very very many years i’ve been thinking of getting myself one Facebook account but the thought of maintaining something like another Friendster account ~which i haven’t touch longest time – it still has my ex’s photo on it :D ~ makes me feeling lazy to do it..

Capture

Then this lab PYT Adela told me everyone has it – and kinda kutuk me for not having one.. so I try try la.. wow within minutes friends are saying things like “finally you’re here” and “it’s about time”, makes me feeling like i’m out of action in this world for the longest of time..

after an hour I’ve found so many people I’ve forgotten I know.. sorry guys.. I guess its normal when you are 30.. or have I been that anti-social??

kinda funny though when I updated profile to be single the wall suddenly reads ‘Dennis Ooi is now single” – as though it just happened - and when I add my buddy then is says “Dennis Ooi and William Lim are now friends” – hey Facebook I’ve known him 10 years.. cute :P

super fun Saturday! feat. Widuri Day 2009

It was indeed one crazy day. Before that here’s my first appearance in the local papers..  the part of the organizers of Widuri Day 2009. none of us was aware the photo was gonna be in Friday’s edition of Kosmo! everyone in committee was laughing on how sloppy we all looked. I was unnamed (far right).

Kosmo scan

Somehow people always spell my name wrong since college.. guys its Dennis not Denise or Danish.. sheesh.

I was DJ-ing for almost throughout the event, and partly MC-ing until Damien came during noon and took over the shift. which was kinda fun. Will post some more photo later once I get my hands on them.

Then it was steamboat/BBQ dinner with another group of friends, in a super packed steamboat restaurant in Sri Kembangan, can’t remember the place’s name though, food is so so la..

Sorry guys other photograph too blur la need to give Kai Yang more photography classes..

Ended up with muscle ache, and a headache, due to inadequate sleep the night before doing preparation for family day, whole day being hyped up DJ-ing during the event, and too full from all-you-can-eat dinner. Woohoo it was a fun-packed day indeed!

finally got my hands on RAINBOW

..literally. My mail order for ayumi hamasaki’s 2002 album, RAINBOW arrived today! only two days after ordering from yesasia.com. It came together with my order of RAVEX’s single, Believe in LOVE featuring, non other than BoA. ~yay!!~

DSC01216

Thus far IMO this is the best ayumi’s album up to date. This year’s NEXT LEVEL just can’t compare. Due to recent house moving I came across the Pasar Malam copy so I tried to give it a listen. The audio quality is just horrible, therefore I decided to search for it in music shops. They just don’t sell it anymore. Even yesasia register the overseas version ‘temporarily not available’ for at least two months now. So finally decided just get the Japanese print instead which is costlier but given the lack of choice (and how short life is) I ordered it anyway. just wished I purchased this when it was just released, because there was a hidden track from this album only downloadable with a given code in the album.. guess i’m 7 years too late now :(

DSC01230

and yeah it was worth it. the songs are still worth listening to for at least years to come. love all of the tracks, Heartplace being my personal favorite.

Songs with 5 star rating on my iPod: WE WISH, Real me, Heartplace, Over, HANABI, everywhere nowhere. Others rated 4 stars :D

DSC01218

Believe in LOVE in contrast is released this year, I believe there is no word about this single being released elsewhere but Japan therefore still had to import the Japan print. Have not got time to open it yet, will give it a spin tomorrow if time permits :D

A picture worth only one word..

only its not.. the word does not share the same meaning with a type of chair.

its actually a halfway eaten doughnut; refer previous post ;D yum yum

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts – The sweet shocking truth!

DSC01197 After months of being curious what the hype is all about, finally got myself a box of 6 to try out. Chosen all the ‘cake’ types this round..

DSC01198Conclusion? Too sweet. Don’t really like the texture. No more cakes next round, shall give their Glazed doughnuts a try next time.

Side note: The extra sugars do help make me feel less sleepy though.. maybe its not all bad after all.. XD

its Inverted Coma y’all!

imagehttp://www.inverted-coma.com/

Wow! Inverted Coma is on Fly FM’s campur chart last night!

These are serious fun fun guys. I got a copy of Miracles last month, IMHO it’s really not bad, totally can listen on a few repeats without gettting bored!

Listen to their single titled ‘Miracles’ here, http://www.flyfm.com.my/campurchart/ Don’t worry don’t have to wait long for their song because they debut at#10. Go and vote for these guys!!

My other opinion, Miracles is way nicer than Yuna on #2, sorry girl ;D

I’ve been following them for a while now.. literally. so wat’s going on behind the scene?

Confession of a Shopaholic – sepet edition

Dear Mama,

Today I have confirmed my strong belief (and your constant accusations) that your dear son is indeed a shopaholic. The hint not being the countless amount of CDs purchased after downloading them first. Not the accumulating BluRays that will never be unwrapped. Not the monthly credit card bills that *almost* hit the roof.

My dear Mama,

Today is a particularly bad day for me, which almost never happens. But by which a bad day for my definition would be a bonus for your daughter. It’s a combination of scorching hot sun, talking to smart people, idiot drivers and cumulating documents on my in tray. But when I look at my super worn out work shuz I just can’t stand it but rush out to buy a new pair (if my boss is somehow a freak who reads blogs of their subordinates, no by rush out I mean after work hours).

Mama,

When you see me still sleeping when my beloved sister has left home for work you would have figured going to work is not my passion. So why oh why am I feeling perky all of a sudden after providing cash to the guy on the other side of the counter? Am I not paying for accessories that reminds me of days of torture? But still its almost feeling like I just purchased yet another pair of RAM to add onto my best pal in the world – my PC that never sleeps (bless that poor soul).

Oh dear mama, since when is a pair of working shuz = a pair of performance RAM?

* ok, for those not in my social cycle, note that I’m neither a geek, nor an introvert although this article may suggest so. nor am I a mama’s boy. Most facts here are made up to mock a dear ‘non-imaginary’ friend of mine. But fact be told, yes this urban youth shall now and forever be a certified shopaholic!
