......Unplanned, he went to a bookstore called Booker. It's as if he was guided by the tingling-bookworm-sense that have always been pointing towards the place. Over to the Fantasy section, he scans from top to bottom just to make sure he didn't miss anything and there it was, the book which he have always wanted, sitting at the shelf waiting for it's rightful owner."At last!", he said with a wide grin. After so much waiting and unsuccessful outcome from raiding each and every bookstore in town. Only Book 3....but no matter. He can ask the lady in front to order the fourth book for him. Without hesitation he asked but to his slight disappointment, they told him that they will try. "But don't get your hopes up high" as what the other bookstore have also told him which irritates him a lot. Although the fourth book seemed to be out of reach, he was still happy acquiring the third book. Excited to start reading it but despite his impatience he needs to restrain since he had to finish his current series of books first. Walking back to his car humming and dancing merrily like some kid who had just gotten his dream toy....

Updates.......

Hisashiburiiiiiii~ Senshu wa totemo tsumaranakatta desu yo...

Yes I know there's no updates for the past two weeks. There's a good reason for it which is I'm BORED. Watched Watchmen in the movies which to me is a 'plain' movie with no engaging climax although the CG is overwhelming. But the comic fans may have a different view. How say you? Other than movies, I tried to tune in to radios to catch up with the latest hits which at that time Melly Goeslow was singing 'I Just Wanna Say I Love You'. The lyrics are the very simple, open up Word or Readme, highlight the title of the song, Press ctrl+c, Hold 'ctrl' and Press 'v' until you think that the words are enough for a 3.5 mins song. I think that the Indonesian Lyric Writers are out of ideas. I seldom turn on the radio where most of the time in my car you will be only hearing J-Music. Lastly, trying to find some animes to counter that which I'm currently leeching them off from the great people in Eclipse FanSubs utilising the internet to the fullest. The title of the anime is Code Geass. What?! You've just started it now? Please spare me! T_T I actually didn't want to touch on mecha animes just yet since I'm full with just Shounen Action animes at the moment so Damn you Code Geass! Why do you have to increase the List. List here is refering to my most wanted HD version Anime list. Those which are in the List are the ones with utmost importance in queue and it must be in 1280x720 resolution which is the HD resolution. I repeat, it's a must. Unless there's no subbed version of it in HD then it must be in WS HQ (Wide Screen High Quality) from ~400 to <720. RMVB is a no. Other formats are acceptable, preferably MKV. I'll explain in the near future about these HD stuffs. If I were able to rate these Animes, then I will give 5 out of 5 for Code Geass but that may be a bit to much since it is the first Mecha Anime that I am currently watching. Since Code Geass have opened the doors to the Mecha world, Gundam will be next on the List.

Now for incoming and ongoing Animes. Fans of Full Metal Alchemist will be thrilled to hear that the Anime will continue on 2009-04-05 but the best thing about it is, it will continue following the original manga storyline as opposed to the current Anime[1]. Hayate no Gotoku 2nd season will start on 2009-04-03[2]. Along with Seto no Hanayome Jin OVA[3], Mahou Sensei Negima! Shiroki Tsubasa ALA ALBA[4] where both have started and many more... I think I'll stop here to make way for NAO people to digest these infos. One more reason why I'm bored is I've finished reading the second book of COTN:The Blood King. There 's still no answer from Reader's Haven. *Readies a bazooka and blew the bookstore to smitherins. BuHaHaHaHaHa....* Imagination always runs wild.

Chronicles of the Necromancer

Here's a book trailer for the first and second book which is The Summoner and The Blood King respectively.



And here is a free e-book sample for the first chapter of each book. Click on the pictures to d/l.




I urge you bookworms especially Magic/Fantasy fans to get these books. If I'm not mistaken book three is already available, not here but out there in the neighbouring countries. Other people have started reading it while I'm still stuck with book two. Uuurghhh!!! C'mon Reader's Haven! Hurry up in shipping the third book or else I'll die from malnutrition of CotN. Short for Chronicles of the Necromancer.

Forgot to mention, the book is available at Reader's Haven. Saw the first book only. You need to order with them to get the second book if it's not available in which they said that the book will arrive 1 to 2 months later. Frustrating, right? Looking forward to discuss them.

There's a proverb saying that, A Japanese word a day makes you better understanding an Anime. So lets learn a new word today, shall we? The word is... Hon. It means book. Congratulations~ Your one step closer to becoming a Japanophile.

Good morning! it's 01:00 AM in the morning and just finished watching the first episode of Heroes season 4. The plot is getting twisted than before. Now I don't know which side is which or is there even a side? Now how about the weather in Brunei? It is unexpectedly fine prior to the warning of having heavy rainfall plus the high tide. I heard that the road was flooded in Limbang making it impassable even for a Trooper and the weather was terrible in Tutong and Temburong. I overheard them when my relatives were discussing on bringing the KK relatives to Brunei by using a speed boat since they can't pass through the immigration post on land.

There's this new book that I'm currently reading. It's Book One of the CHRONICLES OF THE NECROMANCER : THE SUMMONER by Gail Z. Martin. Necromancer is usually associated with black magic since necromancy is a branch of magic in which the practitioner seeks to summon demons to do his bidding. [Wiki, 2008] But that is after the Renaissance. In this book, necromancy is used for a good reason. Like Gaius said, magic is neither good nor bad. It's how you use it that matters. Or something like that.....

First and foremost, many thanks to mimi for recommending the TV series Merlin. It was awesome! Can't wait for the second season to be aired. Oh, and the first season will be airing every Sunday 9.00 pm at TV3. You've only missed the first episode so you can still catch up. Just knew abt that a few minutes ago btw. haha.. There's a total of 13 episodes altogether for the 1st season so don't go anywhere on sunday nights for the next 12 weeks. Sit tight, watch and immerse yourself into the world of Swords and Magics.

Bad weather = Jahat rasa

Beruang yang beriman

While cleaning my Hotmail filled with 1101 unopened mails, I encountered this....

Alkisah...
Seorang lelaki islam ponteng sembahyang Jumaat. Sebaliknya dia masuk hutan untuk memburu beruang. Sedang dia terhendap2 di dalam semak, tiba2 dia berlanggar dengan seekor beruang. Dia begitu terkejut sehingga senapangnya tercampak lalu tergelungsur ke dalam jurang. Dia pula tergolek ke arah lain, jatuh ke atas batu dan KRAKKKK! Kedua2 kakinya patah. Jangan risau .. ini bukanlah berita buruk ok. Ada lagi .. Berita buruknya adalah beruang tadi terus menghambatnya, sedangkan dia dah tak boleh bergerak lagi. "Ya Allah," doa lelaki tersebut," Ampunilah dosaku kerana ponteng sembahyang berjemaah pada hari Jumaat yang mulia ini .. Ampunilah aku ya Allah ..makbulkan hajat ku ini .. jadikanlah beruang yang memburuku Muslim yang beriman .. tolong ya Allah! Aminnn.." Tiba2 guruh berdentum! Beruang tadi tiba2 terhenti betul2 di hadapan lelaki tadi. Sambil menadah kedua2 kaki depannya ke langit .. beruang tersebut pun berdoa, "Allahumma barik lana, fima razaktana, wa qina azabbannar. Amin!"

I mean, let me rephrase that to a better word to eliminate wierd ..... thoughts. The rest of the trip was quite ok actually, with a quick stop here and there to, u noe, go to the toilet and also stretching the body.

Now I present to you, KK....

The waterfront view from 9th floor of Marina CRC.




This is where we live for the first day. The Marina Court Resort Condominium. A shot
from the parking lot.




The Living Room of MCRC




"6 sudu...check. 6 garfu...check. 6 galas...check. 6 kudut...check. 6 cawan...check." We need to check whether all the accessories are in the right quantity. If not, we will be charged for it. FYI, you can also bought them as souvenirs including the bath towel, pillow, blanket and others.




Our life saver, Chef Hjh Pura. Without her, our tummy will growl for eternity. Her cooking is Legend. She's my mom's mother btw. ie my Grandmother.



We went to the newly opened Shopping Mall. "Lakas tah ke First Borneo.." nya amit laki. "Bukan First Borneo, i Borneo..." nya my dad. 2X5... 1 Borneo lah...

Outside of the entrance to 1 Borneo.
My friends, a history has been made. My brother has caught a santa. Who wants presents?




Starbucks @ 1 Borneo. This three costs around RM45.




The second day, we changed our place of stay to The Colonnades Condominium for fun. Yea right... The truth is Marina CRC was fully booked and paid. Not just booked, P-A-I-D!
The first and most important thing that we did when we've arrived at the new condo is to get hold of a blanket and a pillow. Unpacking comes after that.




Warning!
Explicit Gore. (PG)
My grandmother bought two monkeys from the market. They were so cute so we let them loose in the condo. Big mistake...

After resting a bit, we went to Wisma and KK Plaza.

Shhhh! were making an advert for H*tlink.

Outside Burger King.
While waiting for our burgers to cook, we took a shot of ourselves wearing newly-bought caps. Fresh from the streets.




@ Karamunsing Plaza.
sluurrp, sluurrp, BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR~




That's pretty much about our trip to KK. We didn't manage to go to the Times Square due to time loss in transferring condos and the second condo is a bit far from the city central. Although driving takes around 5-10 mins to reach central, it's really far for us to walk. I really enjoyed it very much. Can't wait for our next trip which in planning will be around the 3rd month next year I hope.

Till next time,

Something for today

Dear readers,

I know that I said I will blog again the other nite. So as a punishment, I shall perform harakiri. Goodbye world. *stabs a knife to the stomach*. While my soul floats to heaven, I was stopped and interrogated. A high and mighty voice asks "Amir Akram, son of Big, why have you committed such crime?" "I was too sleepy that nite", I answered. (What kind of answer is that?!) "Really? Ok, you may go back now." (What?!!!! Is that it?) "Wait?... am I not going to heaven?" "...in your dreams." "Excuse me?!!" "Your in a dream!" I woke up and found that the TV was watching me. "Stupid TV.."

Yo! Omaetachi~ genki kai?....(trying to change the topic) Yes I know, I forgot to blog the other nite. But, but... the bed looks so comfy and it was calling me, waving at me and I got tempted. I was just going to rest my body a bit but the power of the bed is not something that you can easily decline. And my lullaby was singing at that time. Yes, I need a lullaby to sleep. That lullaby is the TV. I can't sleep without the TV's on, unless i'm really, really, really tired. But hey, it sang a different tune every night. ahahaha... What?... I put the TV in sleep mode, okay. well, sometimes... if I remembered to set it... which I usually forgot. *sigh. Alright you got me there. So what?

Now for some real update. What I like to share is my first* trip to KL arriving at the new* KLIA. Well it's not quite new since it's already 10 years that it existed. But it's the first time that we, as a family, land/arrive at KLIA. Upon arrival, whoa?! Where am I? Did we took the wrong flight? Is this really KLIA? Yes and this is only half of it. After going through the aerobridge, there's this nice lady holding a sign saying that our bags at belt G. Since we're a first timer, we followed the signs to reach belt G when suddenly I remembered someone told me (I think it's Fakhriah) that we need to take a train to reach the bags. "Nonsense," is what my dad said. Turns out that we really need to board the Aerotrain to go to the next terminal. That's right, next. There are two terminals and I can't even compare the second terminal (smallest of the two) with Brunei's. So we went to the first terminal and found out that our bags were not there. It was at belt D. I take back what I said, that lady is not nice. Iatah tu nah, buat lagi airport basar-basar. Cemana bulih D jadi G?

Arriving at KL, after 1 hour of, I could say, pleasant ride, my first impression of Low Yat is ".....where am I? Gadgets Heaven?!" My first impression of Times Square is ".....where am I? Shopping Heaven?!" My first impression of Suria KLCC is ".....WHERE AM I?!! High-Class Shopping Heaven?!". The two things which I would buy first if I go to KL again is Burger King and StarBucks. I really miss the Mushroom w/ swiss cheese burger(ed.) and the Ice-blended cream caramel. *drooling* Anyways, here are some pics taken during our stay there.




All of this cost RM34++.



This was a candid shot unintentionally looking at different direction



1... 2... *click 3.... Woooi! Alum ready. Lagi sekali....



Dua-dua yang di tangah tu kanak-kanak sinting kan skulah

Ayte, that's all about my KL trip. Can't wait till the 10th to taste Burger King and Starbucks again. *slurpp, nyum, nyum.. Btw, I'll be going to KK on that day. haha..

Omong kosong.....

Aku sedang membual masa ini... Jika kamu tak nak mendengar nya, ya sudah lah~ Buhahaha... Cawer~ Cawer~ Macam kicap cair.... Ahem.. Berpandukan kepada akta Jalan Raya seksyen B kurungan A, awda mesti memberi isyarat sebelum melakukan sesuatu semasa memandu. Sebagai contoh, Jika awda hendak ke kiri, awda mesti signal ke kiri dan juga sebaliknya. Jika awda dalam kecemasan maka gunakanlah lampu emergency dan jika awda hendak menggunakan telefon bimbit semasa memandu, awda hendaklah mengeluarkan tangan sambil membuat isyarat tangan seperti ini:

1) Pertama sekali, buat gengaman.
2) Lepas itu, keluarkan ibu jari dan jari kelingking untuk memberi isyarat kepada pengguna jalan raya yang lain bahawa awda sedang mengunakan telefon bimbit.

Jangan di buat ni pekara buduh ani... Kana timbak karang (as in shoot using a camera) oleh pulis. Ahem.. On to the real agenda, this blog may be on hiatus for a while due to researching for cosmetic changes to the blog. I will blog again when I found the right color and pictures for the new template. You know what this blog lacks? It's pictures. Lot's of them. So... will post them someday.... I hope...

Oh, Btw, DoTA 6.55 has been officially released. Grab it while it's hot here. The two new heroes are imba....

Till then..
