Locked and Unloaded

Wat a way to start the day~
I accidentally( totally cant remember pushing the locking button) locked myself out of my room while i wash my face tis morning with everything inside -keys, wallet, handphone. I cant even go out to ask for help- maindoor locked too :p

Try ramming the door ( not enuf body mass), picking lock ( just try :p), card sliding ( no cards to slide - plastic folder) but to avail... Luckily there a house phone in the living room (which i nvr used before). So i called up my bro who in turn give me a few contacts who live nearby ( i cant remember any number:p) Thanks god, a friend was free to help. She went and called a locksmith up.

Unfortunately he had to break the main door lock to get it (wasted) since that type cant be picked... Anyway the room door is unlock and I can finally get my day going... tis ordeal wastes a few hours today >.<" And also i need to part wif my RM50 for the locksmith's service T.T

Anyway, a few lesson have learned- hide an extra key, dun be too careless and have some contacts number nearby in case of an emengercy.

And a big big thanks for my friends who got involved into tis especially RX. Hontoni arigato~

*edited*
since wimal requested a pic, this is wat i found the most similar type with mine

Stuck Between Two Heavens

I having a life changing dilemma now...
I just got pulled into another multi level marketing firm this afternoon just after I attended a motivating course by Amway.

At first i thought is another Amway or other lesser firm member looking for another downline. Then what I have to face is one heck of a competitor... After hearing a brief product intro and its marketing plan, I was totally dumbfound.. Thats one smack in the face in Amway in term of marketing and money making speed... Ironically just when i began to be interested in Amway.

Now i was given a choice of a lifetime... make it big in Amway where trusted friends are or make it bigger in more easier venture? I can only choose one or never.

Now even thinking of it make my head hurt.... Help~

Anime Marathon No.1: Witch Hunter Robin

Lolz~ Spent these few days watching this 2002 anime series from Sunrise, Witch Hunter Robin.
Just finished the whole 26- episode flick lolz.

The premise goes like this:
Witches are individuals with special powers like ESP, telekinesis, mind control, etc. Robin, a craft user, arrives from Italy to Japan to work for an organization named STN Japan Division (STN-J) as a replacement for one of STN-J's witch hunters who was recently killed. Unlike other divisions of STN, STN-J tries to capture the witches alive in order to learn why and how they became witches in the first place.

What interesting bout tis anime is things is not wat it seems to be... the story seems a bit like X-Men-ish along the way :p
Anyway a good and interesting anime nonetheless.

Now I got another anime marathon to run :P

Wings Of Rean

I just finished watching this newest anime from Sunrise Studio before i wanna retired for the day :p All i can say from this 1st episode of the series is that it got an explosive start. Well, that wat u get from the veterans of the Gundam anime series.

Wings of Rean is actually a spinoff from an 1980s anime series, Aura Battler Dunbine which is a brainchild from the same person who wrote and directed the original Mobile Suit Gundam series, Yoshiyuki Tomino. He is also the director of this new series :D
And well, even the animation looks and feels old-school but the action and the "alien"battle ships designs will make up for it. Oh, obviously it gonna be a mecha action anime series :D

The story setting is basically the same as original ones where a boy from tis world got involve into another world's matter. Well, i not sure how far tis will stray from the old series but I expect good things from it as it looks promising :D

Yawn~ now i really need to sleep :p

Blast From The Past

Fate sure had a funny way of working.
As i had suspected, the one who are running the Amway center which i'm been going is indeed a close associate of my late father. I had a rather vogue memory wif them ages ago :p

Well, I thought the uncle that were sitting in the sofa looks familiar when i first came up the center a week ago. And just yesterday i confirmed my suspection by asking a question that only few knows. Well, the son of his (he knew my father well and who i asked) was rather surprised and really excited to found tis out. Well, both of our families had been out of contact for about 7 years or so.

Me? I found myself dumbstrucked when i learn the truth. Funny how he noted the my standings with him and b4 he knew was vastly different.... Emm, kinda know wat he meant :p

Previously i was really firm on my thinking... now i really dont know... Lets see how the next card will be played....

Return Of The Jerk

The jerk in me resurfaced again tonight and my relationship with my roomie bro has hit rock bottom >.<" We almost had a fight at the nearby mamak stall while having dinner. Luckily we kept our cool and manage to keep things to ourself. Sigh~ He's right. I have changed alrite... from optimistic to cynical and pessimistic, from happy go lucky to downrite moody.. Now I asked myself... wat went wrong during this past years? I dunno... I seems to lost my track in life. My heart seems to locked away from everything- i couldnt feel anything alive in the past years. And now I getting tired in searching for the key. I been living an anti-social life and i'm now trying hard to change myself before i going into a path of self destruct... Hmmm.. maybe i'm been thinking too much. Hope i can control the demon in me next time >.<"

WOW

Hehe.. Finally got my hands on World of Warcraft. Huh~ been waiting for weeks for the torrent to finish dl (freaking 2.88gb) then another moment to install it and another hour or so to download and patch it. Whew~ almost waiting forever. And not to mention some time spent to find a decent private server :P

Lo and behold, my 1st WOW character, the Undead Warlock, Anarkin.... Well, i always seems to be interested in the undead.. dun ask me why :P

Spent a few moments in the game trying to figure out how tid games works. I find the controls are pretty awkward to use.. for me at least. WASD to move, left click to target and right click to interact.. well, not to say not good but i rather have my left hand free to press hot-keyed skill when i'm in action. Maybe i still need some time getting use to it... Well, cant say too much since i didnt spent much time on it. But if u got a high spec pc, i can say u will got a better visual than me. Well, as for the server, it strangely unpopulated (only 20+ people online currently) But at least it's not laggy and it close to home (in the Pilippine). To friends out there, join me at tis server. See u soon, heh.

Whew~

Yawn~ Dunno why i let myself to be pulled into this=.="
Spending almost 12 hours listen some "sucessful" people bragging about their achievement while i try to look as interested as humanly possible. Not to say they are wrong but everyone is entitled to his or her own point of view - I still firm on mine.
Anyway.. like i mention before, been there done that. I really dun wan to say much here...

Just installed World of Warcraft. Probably will spent some time on this :p Hope i dun get addicted, heh. Wish me luck.

FMA-The Movie:Conqueror of Shambala


Finally, a true ending to the series that took the anime world by storm- FullMetal Alchemist. I had downloaded it from Anime Source yesterday and just finish watching it with my bro.

Anyway, the story picks off a few years from where we left at the end of the series. Edward seems begining to adjust himself in the "real" world where else Al is all grown up in the alchemist world and still seeking a way bring back Edward..... But back in the "real" world, some organisation is planning a sinister event that will turn both worlds into chaos...
Well, it's a nice movie overall, and somewhat an excellent conclusion to the series. To fans or those who watch the series, this movie is a must. And to those newbie, i suggest u to watch the series first :D

The Fishes


I recently brought a graphic novel which i been trying to find around KL ever since i missed buying it last time. The book is entitled "The Fishes" by local comic artist Ben from a local comic mag :D

The story revolves around 4 main individuals which brought together by the zodiac sign "Pisces" which coincidentally three of them was born under.
As u can tell, it basically a mushy love story but for me the story is quite meaningful and well written :)
As for the artwork, lets just say Ben have the uncanny knack for drawing really 'kawaii' girls :p But overall very manga like :D

For those who into a meaning love story, nice kawaii art or just want to support the local comic industry, i highly recommend this novel. It a full-colored, almost 140 pages of loving goodness with a price tag of RM 7.50. I suggest u buy it via http://www.gempakstarz.com/home/index.php or to KLCC's Kinokuniya since the graphic novel is pretty much out of stock everywhere else :p
Enjoy~

Makeover

Haha~ as u can see, my blog got a new imej.. Yeah~
Spending the whole day tweaking and changing and making designs with a blog template generator. It's not bad.. just need some time on the learning curve- me know next to nothing on HTML and shit :p
Here, try it at http://psyc.horm.org/

Anyway i'm kinda satisfy wif it at the moment. Heh~
Why the name Orange Ho? Well, my Mandarin name kinda sound like it and it's kinda special :D

Yawn~ now 4.15 am =.=" might as well get to bed... but not b4 i update my Friendster too :p

Art Attack

Huh~ just woke up, heh~
Now gonna post some artworks here.. finally. These below are some of my earliest work.. way back my secondary days, haha :p

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us
Ok, it pretty childish now but then these are my finest work back then. spent lot of time on the details. Kinda got violence mind i admit :p
Anyway, these are cute characters engaging in some good versus evil war. No prize for guessing which is good or evil.

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us
Then a couple of years later, i created a new set of characters and let my imagination go wild haha~ As u can see, i put a lot of effort on this one. Poster coloring with more details.. hardly with any more space. Notice the violence level increased :p Dark mind i was, hmm?

You may ask, where i get my inspiriation from? Games? Haha, i not sure but back then i didnt expose to any pc games yet but i think it was anime (Dragon Ball Z, anyone?) which influenced me :) Anyway, how i wish these to be made into a RTS now using Relic's Dawn of War engine. Whouldnt it be cool :D

Well, till next time. In the meantime, drool :p

Jack back in.

Huh~ finally have my line back at the comfort of my home. Yeah~
Hopefuly I can pay when the fee is due next time.. given my current jobless state>.<"

Anyway, went out the whole day today - just had a bath as i hit home just now. Spent the whole afternoon loitering at KLCC today, looking around and stuff like that. Having discount everywhere.. too bad I was pretty much burned a hole in my pocket after settled all the bills previously >.<"

Well, obviously that didnt detered me from watching King Kong - nice epic movie from Peter Jackson. Great effect and all -obviously, from the maker of the Lord Of the Ring trilogy. Too bad some scenes stretched a bit too long for my liking. Nonetheless, highly recommendable :D

Went to a couple of Amway meeting these 2 days.... chouldnt say no, since they all sincerely want me to attend. Sigh~ been there done that... Still not into it...... yet. Sorry guys :p

Oh, since I back online, i hope to put on my artwork asap hence the one of the reasons of tis blog :D

A new year,a new lease of life

Wow... wat a nice way to start the year :D
Just came back today from 2 day 1 nite fun-filled beach outing. Well, it is actually a yearly Family Day outing organized by Amway ( a famous product marketing org.) members for members. I happened to get invited on the day i lost my work last year :P

Well, i tot wat the heck.. since it it is the new year, i just tot to have a change of enviroment, to get a breath of fresh air... to forget things for a while.. and to start anew.

And i got more than i bargain for..... got thrown wif an egg in a face during a fun game ( hard time taking the stain off my shirt), sack running ( killing my abdomen) , race for a place holding hands wif a girl( got rammed by an opposition girl :P), playing last man standing wif balloon ( wich i lost) and get to eat potato chips placed on my forehead without hands ( got nicknamed potato chip man, lol) and of cos, BBQing during heavy rain lolz.

Actually, i never tot i ever involved in tis kind of games- i was rather passive to begin wif. Then i made myself a point to get more involve actively in these kind of activities... there more to social life than MMO games, u know.

And special thanks to my good friend Siew Fong (hope i spell ur name rite :P) for inviting me, encouraging me and helping me the whole time. I really touched :) I hope u soon will be wif ur happiness, u know who i mean lolz. Best of luck ;) And a big thanks to her friends too. Hope we have fun like tis again. Arigato~

Boy... now i aching all over =.=" lolz
