Message: If you are Msia's 80s
baby,read through
this, we grew up watching Transformers,
Thundercats, Woody Woodpecker,
Chipmunks, Mickey Mouse, Jem, Mask,
Ninja Turtles, Voltron, Baja Hitam,
Ultraman n not forgettin POWER RANGERS
n BUGS BUNNY!!!and anderra yippa mice?
:), McGyver ?
had to brush our teeths during recess
at primary school? had to hold plastic
cups, line up with your classmates side
by side and start brushing our teeths
at some open area... or maybe near some
drain??
do you still remember that we had
'dentist' rooms where we had to have
our
teeths check?
not to forget our 'program minum susu'
in primary school.. everybody is
suppose
to buy like cartons of milk that costed
30 cents.. and you would see everyone
drinking it everyday...its d UHT
milk...
the teachers who would want to punish
us must use yellow rulers to hit us on
our palms?? 1 metre length..
that a bowl of mihun soup or some soup
only costed 50 cents at the school
canteen...
went to some sundry shop near the
school
or to the 'roti' man waiting outside
our
schools so that we can buy junk food
like chickedees, mamee, ding dang with
some toys in it, 'Ti Kam', ice-cream
and
we would play games like monopoly, uno,
old maid, and all other card games like
that...
another fun time would be during
Pendidikan Jasmani. the boys would
play football while the girls would
play netball... and it would be like we
were playing in the world cup...
but of course. the best would be main
guli, batu seremban, bottlecaps, ice-
cream sticks, 'Pepsi Cola
one-two-three', Cops and Robbers, main
kejar-kejar duduk,getah... and for the
not so active, those kind of 'book
games' where we would use buku latihan
to draw and ask our friends to play...
do you remember the ice-cream tubes
which are actually ice and colouring
that are sold for 10 to 20 cents.. the
colourful ones.. where you usually bite
off the top to glup it down.orange
tastes b best..(pop-ice)
what about days when we felt like doing
naughty things such as folding papers
so small to make 'lastik' amd shoot
each other... how about throwing
chalks??
back then, micheal jackson was just
turning white.. and still had albums
coming out.. compared to CD's, we were
listening to tapes that sold for RM9.90
...
in computer class, we were still using
black and white computer moniters..
played 'Atari'... maybe SEGA or
NINTENDO..
well, are we all getting older or what?
1) if you understand what you have read
and you are smiling...
2) we have friends from school that are
already married...
3) we shake our heads everytime we
see high school students fussing about
their handphones in school..
4) we don't hang on phone with our
friends for hours a day talking about
nothing...
5) when we meet back with our friends
from time to time, we feel excited and
happy talking about old times, the
funny 'adventures' or stories that we
experienced as a kid..
6) last but not least, that when you
read this, you would think of all the
happy & sad memories that you have
experienced when you were still a kid
and would think of forwarding this to
your old friends that you have known
since forever... i'm sure they would
have a huge smile on their face after
reading this.....
p.s: if u feel u're one of them who
experinced this, repost this to share
it
wif ur frens... ;)
Love version 2
Sometimes I hate love because it's so sickening, hectic and confusing.
Sometimes I want love because I am miserable, lonely and sad
All my heart wants to say is to have a lovely lady that I could hug, love and spending sweet time together. All this will probably occur in my dreams now.
I'm so left out from the society that I feel like an outcast, someone so unique in this world that can't mix with the normal humans. God, I wonder why my personality is so indifferent from so many people.
Pokemon and Harvest Moon
My wish list game would be to get a working Pokemon: FireRed and LeafGreen version .. somehow I can't get the rom that would run FireRed and LeafGreen can't seem to save ! argh

Gamer and Gaming
I'm an avid gamer when I was small, it's fun to play games. My constructive mind loves to play strategy when I was small like Heroes: Might and Magic, Starcraft and Warcraft. After the development of Half Life and 3 years later Counter Strike, the gaming life of mine starts to drive further as I soon got very much addicted to it.
The feeling of being a gamer if sometimes because we seek attention and aside of that to seek entertainment and adventure. Whenever I am good in a game, I try to seek glory from it by challenging another player. It feels good inside me where it makes me happy when I win. Although there is a saying "It's just a game", how many player would actually mean it if let's say you're defeated badly or you're playing in a championship like WCG ?
After the development of DOTA which I didn't bother to touch ever since it got developed until my account in Ragnarok Online got wiped and there was no more online games that could actually attract my attention (MapleStory). The development of DOTA was great until now, everyone is enjoying the game and it has even entered into the game played in WCG competition. I'd wish I could have a unlimited credit card where I can purchase my dream game which is World Of Warcraft because I haven't got enough of playing my cool dwarf hunter. I had only managed to play for 2 weeks when WOW just entered open beta before it went gold. It was fun though that I actually kept awake 18 hours just to play it during my school holiday during year 2004.
The development of games have it's bad effects though. When the first cyber cafe was first opened, many students would actually skip school to catch a game with their friends and waste pocket money. Keep in mind that when cyber cafe business was not well known yet, it was charging RM4, imagine a cyber cafe that charges RM4 now ? I bet everyone shouts RIP OFF but imagine during that time like year 2000.
Bad gaming experience has also resulted in anger where you can see last in cyber cafe that if someone is so pissed off because he got killed for billions of times that he can't stand it anymore but to punch the person that is right next to him or the "killer" that killed him numerous time. I bet you have read about cyber cafe rage that went to even armed weapon like parang.
Furthermore, some games are too addictive and could even force people to play non-stop until they are drop dead such as the south korean case where a man stayed awake for 72 hours before collapsing and died on the spot because of malnutrition and lack of sleep.
And the most famous one of all is foul language and bad sportsmanship, how "rarely" have you seen people not cursing inside the cyber cafe loudly as if he was the king of the world. I bet you've experienced this in ANY games where you meet an opponent that is so childish that can't help but to bug you and taunt you with any grammar he/she can find in their head just to annoy your gaming experience.
The lack of sportsmanship really turned down a lot of avid gamers because of the lousy gaming experience they are receiving. The point is, we should let game consume our mind and corrupt us from doing things that is called "life". It's not to say that you can't have fun, but there is a limit where you should do something in life like getting a job, get a good result in exam or get a girlfriend and interact and make friends.
Out of the negative side, gaming helps to create an active mind and help to stimulate the brain with action visually. In the recent report, even surgeons should play games to do better in using a mechanical hand through a computer.
I'm just a lover for games but most people refer gamers as geeks. Everyone wishes to enjoy life in a specific ways. Some find pleasure playing games, some find pleasure reading novels and etc. Even gamers or geeks should deserve love, caring and help from others. I will still probably play games even though I'm married, unless your life is filled up with your wife or friends or by work. But then again, gaming is another healthy lifestyle other than going to pubs and drink all morning to release tension in exchange for illusive "entertainment" from drinking beer.
Moreover, You might start getting crippled for playing too much game by sitting all day long, so get some life and go out and take an exercise for an hour. Walk around malls with your family or friends.
Exams
You know the way exams torment your mind into memorizing every single word in the text book and requires you to "vomit" everything out from the question paper. It's just a horrible feeling for me every time I take an exam. Especially when I dislike a subject or know nothing about what the lecturer is blabbering about in the lecture hall.
I really regret taking up business though, it's less fun but it's a little easier than being a science student. I wish I can do doctor if only I had a brilliant mind that helps to keep every information on every strange virus, bacteria or infection that doesn't require me to memorize it for days. Then again I love being practical like making a website or maybe mixing stuff like chemistry. Being a marketing student is really a tough job to me.
I feel as If I just flunk my last paper, it's so hard for my brain to actually digest the notes. But right now I am glad that I finished my exam. It's time my mind can finally enjoy peace and serenity. It's been a torment in the exam hall where you sit and answer that complicated paper while your hands and mind is freezing with chill with 8 air cons blowing at high power with high fan.
If only exams were more practical and require you to do something like driving during your car license exam. Maybe they should make pharmacist to create the flying dutch man from a poof of chemical or require doctors to do a biospy. And maybe for a marketer probably try to make us do some real work like successfully marketing a product in the campus?
People judge another person by how clever they are based on their exam result. But we should try something more innovative like creating our own idea or theory. Maybe that will help us to build a better country and contribute more. Rather than trying to learn to be like Einstein.
