Spiderman III


Today, I decided to go to see 'your friendly neighbourhood hero' - Spidey. I have been a fan of it since young and the movie was quite good. It costs 90KR for a ticket here. A bit the ex. Oh well.

The movie was just a bit drama. Well, TOO MUCH! Oh my gawd! I thought life can be drama but this one is going up and down like a roller-coaster. Hehehe. Action wise was good though I wished for more.

I always wanted to say this out loud:

"With great power comes with great responsibilities"

Am I Too Good or What?

Oh my gawd! I didn't know that my experiment would be so good(dunno whether that's good or bad) that now I have to push it even further. You might not understand what I'm saying here but to summarise my wing here is over-performing. I never expected it to stall such as a high angle of attack.

But here is the sad case. I have to KEEP ON DOING IT until it stalls! Aiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Celaka, here I thought I don't need to do my labour work in College anymore. There goes my Spiderman 3 plan for tonight.

Hmmmmmmmmm. I suppose I could come in on Saturday to do my experiment. Actually, that sounds better. The experiment can wait but Spidey can't. Hehehe.

Slowing Down

Due to the cacatness of blogspot, I can't post anymore large post. Therefore, you won't see me much these days. But on the bright side, I will be working from home. Yay! I don't need to go uni at all! I'm done with the physical work and now it's number crunching time.

Wish me luck that I don't go bananas with it.

Conservation of Energy

Hahahaha. Well, today will be the last day I will be 'gambling' and guess what. I lost exactly 48 chips. Aiya! The equation is so true. Quite scary! Oh well, you win some, you lose some.

Daniel. Oh Daniel. He loves the game too much now. :)

Oh yea, we were watching the Liverpool and Chelsea match. Poor Chelsea.

Daniel - the shuffler. He is a pro in cards though.

You know I might have found another long lost relative this time. Hahahahahahaha.

It has been great fun for the past week but now I have to get serious. One more month till I need to hand in my report and get back to London.

May 1st II

After the demonstration, we(Muk Chen and family, Daniel and me) headed off to see the old fortress of Trondheim. This fortress was built to protect Trondheim from the invading Germans I think. But anyway, it was quite scenic.

My campus - Gløshaugen.

The fortress.

The fortress facing downtown. The church is at a distance.

No idea where but very pretty with all the houses on the hills.

The Alcatraz of Trondheim. Oh yea, it was around there I fished.

Long live Norway!

I wished I could fire some!

Muahahaha. But not as pretty as Siew Ping's one.

Daniel and me.

All in all, I definitely had a fun time going around Trondheim. Thanks Muk Chen for ferrying me around and Daniel for being the tourist. Man, do I look and sound like the tourist instead. :) Anyway, I know I wouldn't have gone to these places at any point of time.

May 1st

A new post for the month. So, it's a holiday for most of the world because today is Labour Day. I was suppose to sleep in but decided to go to town to experience a demonstration. Yes I know. Norwegians though are peaceful people, they do demonstrate.

Well, it's more like the unions just march down to town and voice out to the government what can be done and so on. Not your typical demonstration with tonnes of police and cocktail bombs. It was more like a parade.

Before the march. The church where the King of Norway gets coronated.

The first marching band.

The Scientist Union.

Teddy Bear!

The Hospital Union.

Even babies go to demonstrate.

The mothers demanding more funds.

And Goths. No idea why.

Don't worry. I didn't go support anything. I'm not too interested in politics anyway. :)

Blog Update III

I just added 3 new musics.
  1. Wang Lee Hom - Ni Bu Zai
  2. Wang Lee Hom - Huo Tian Chuo
  3. Jay Chou - Fa Ru Xue

Any other songs to recommend? Thanks.

Food and Gamble

Tonight's meal was cool. We had tonnes of Cod(obviously from our fishing trip). Also, we had a bit of Western meal(cooked by Daniel. Scrumptious!). I do apologise for not taking any pictures. We gobbled everything. No time to take my camera out. But we had 2 types times of steamboat; the normal fish stock and the other was Szechuan style steamboat. A bit spicy but super yummy.

Then came my favourite past time. For the past 3 days, I have been gambling(without money of course). We played 'Chor Tai Di'. I was quite surprised that Daniel was very excited to get the game started. Oh well, he said it was better than poker any time. :)

Anyway on the first day, I lost quite badly about 25 chips. Ah ha, that changed around today. I won about 48 chips. Quite an accomplishment I have to admit. I was down to -20 initially(initial capital of 50 each) but picked up after midnight. Yea yea. Nothing exciting there but still. It is always fun to win.

But of course, the morale of the story is not to gamble at all. It will never ever benefit you in the long run. It will drain your money and everything out of you. So, just be careful.

Fishing Trip

This is one thing I haven't done although I come from Terengganu. Fishing. I have always wanted to do fishing but never had the guts of doing it. So came along my phD friend, Muk Chen, organising the trip and so I took this opportunity to start my fishing adventure. As the famous Chinese proverb says 'Fish for a man, you can feed him for a day, teach a man how to fish and he can feed himself forever.' So powerful!

Anyway, we started off by getting the life jackets from the Fire Station(which is also another first for me to go into a Fire Station. How jakun can I be. You learn something new everyday. :P) and headed off to the pier. Our first catch started a bit small. Just getting 4 tiny Torsk(Cod) fish. After feeling a bit disappointed, we moved to deep waters.

Ahhhhhhhh. That was where things got exciting. Everyone got 2 fish easily and then more came. The sizes were bigger too. But there was a price to pay. The weather wasn't that kind to us. The waves were quite choppy. So, after my last catch(I caught the biggest one which was about 3 kgs. :D) we headed back. The sea showed us no mercy making it a seriously bumpy right.

Luckily after 1 hour 20 minutes of enduring the vicious pounding and lashing of her wrath, we landed safely back in the pier. I SURVIVED! I thought I was going to die at one point. Fortunately, I was a bit nausea after all of that. But I pitied Muk Chen and SS. They were really sick. I don't think I want to go into the details but it wasn't pretty.

So all in all, it was quite good fun. But, this won't happen anytime soon. Hehehe. I just took the smallest and one large Cod for my own consumption because I can't really cook for so much and besides, I'm leaving in a month's time.

Our first batch. The small ones.

This was my catch. :) 3 kgs.

Big Momma. Muahahahaha. What should I call it?

Now we are talking about 20 over Cods here. :D

The eye of the storm. Well, that was only the clear patch in the sky. Scary.

Me safe and sound back in the pier. I looked a bit pale myself.

Daniel and me.

Muk Chen, XYZ, Jose, me and SS.

p/s: That's his name. XYZ. Xiang Yuan Zhou. Not the XYZ-axis okay!

Son of a B***h

There is only one thing which gets me mad and worked-up for those who knew what happened to me in my 3rd year. It is THAT again! Can I get FREE from this forever!

I'm now plagued with a problem from then and for f**k sake can't they do something right for once! What the hell is wrong with them! It was a simple task to just end our stay in that horrid place and this is coming back to haunt me.

I always believe 'Aren't we all old enough to do our responsibilities?' I mean if you can't even sort this simple task in life now how in the hell are you going to be a parent when you have your own household with kids around and paying all the bills and such? So, I don't think I'm asking for much here! (Do note, I'm not being a brat here pushing the blame on them but I have done it before so, I know that I'm capable off doing it! I have my reasons.)

But there is a lesson is to be learnt from here, Juniors. Choose wisely who you want to stay with. You might be the bestest of bestest of friends but living under the same roof with him/her will reveal the true colour and nature of the person. Though that's quite impossible to find out before hand but I hope you guys don't fall into a pit hole like I did.

Also, this is a good test of your patience and tolerance staying with other people. I did learn something from it after all. You will learn it the hard way.
