Faceboob

In the past, I've always been rather skeptical about sites like Friendster/Facebook/High5 wtv networks, all beginning with the pioneering Friendster (mostly with little success).

My usual rate of logging into such sites in the past: When someone adds me/writes me a testimonial/messages me and I get an e-mail etc; Rare, less than once in weeks.

This has changed rather drastically lately, and it's because of one trip; Ma'Daerah.

So many photos were taken and uploaded in Faceboob, with all of us tagged and hence being notified by mail all the time when a photo is added/comment is made to the photo; turns Faceboob into something like a forum/giant chatroom. This is especially true when people are online at the same time and comments are replied instantly. I begin to think to a certain extent, Faceboob is kinda cool =D and here's the figures...

Current rate of logging into Faceboob: Daily, when notified by e-mail.

I'm becoming a boob-faced Faceboob nerd, and I feel rather odd XD Still don't bother with most the applications they have though, annoying pesky lil things -_-

And now here's the uncool part, my exams start on the 10th. Hoooo-ray.

I pick all the wrong times to indulge in new interests, mehhhhhhhh~

Viral infuoarcktion

Blardy hell, viruses, Trojans, rubbish ROAR!

My external hard disk is a mess. My laptop is a warzone (it can open no applications). A visit to a computer shop due tomorrow.

ROAAAAAAAAAAR!

Dinner

Dinner last night at Nando's included:
1. Quarter chicken (extra hot)
2. coleslaw
3. old style chips
4. overdose of extra hot peri-peri sauce
5. iced lemon tea with multiple refills

Put this formula together and you'll get to piss fiery fluids through your Anus, like,that. not fun

What she did to me

I had a rare night out with a Carrot and Cow last night in Pyliamid Pyramid. Carrot and I have been craving for Sushi Zanmai for a while, but since the one who Moos could not take in seafood that night, the plan crumbled (though Carrot had her Zanmai in the afternoon already). Anyway, dinner at Subway, ice cream at NZ somethin (I forgot the name) and a tumble of dirty jokes by Yee Hou later, we rode in his car to send our dear lil carrot home. At her place, she...

Hmmm? My Jasmine (guitar) and some sexy nails
It started with Wei Ern (Carrot) gettin all horny to paint a transparent coat over my nails (I just left my immensely sexy left hand on the table a moment) but I said, transparent like waste time only, cannot see (Me and my big fat mouth). So she proceeded with colours and I told her to "surprise me". Man was I in for a big one.

All these pictures were taken back home actually, with my thrusty trusty Z610i

For your information, this is not the first time Wei Ern's involved in painting my nails, the last time I was in my college's library in the quiet zone (2nd floor) when she, Nar, Hwei Wan, Sharen and Huey Shean cornered me and painted my nails black on one hand. and applied eye liner on me. I was beyond sexy. But since I didn't want all the dudes chicks after me, I went on to Wei Ern's place immediately after to remove that stuff, which by the way, is pretty damn hard to remove. ESPECIALLY the blardy eye liner! Yeeeeeeeee I feel super gay.

By the way, the hideous pink colours were suggested by poultry (Hou the Cow).

I asked my sister if I looked cool playing the guitar fast with a blur flurry of colours following my fingers, maybe like a disco ball you know? Her response..

"No Kien, it's just ugly"

Fine.

"Why?"

I actually forgotten to remove it till this morning when I got a scare in my bathroom while I was happily rubbing myself clean in the shower >_<

Jumping on the Turtle Bandwagon

In line with Turtle Conservation and this post from Michy's blog, I thought I'd do the same since I wrote an essay bout those marvellous globe-trotters anyway. Some facts. (Read the BOLDED fonts if ya lazy)
Alright, this was a table I used for my essay (Michelle used it too), and from what we see here, there are 7 extant (not extinct) species of sea turtles (some taxonomist say 8, with black and green sea turtles separate - it's not important) and their numbers aren't overwhelming no more.

Why us Malaysians SHOULD help in turtle conservation

• We screwed them up : As screwed as it sounds, it's actually true. Many T'ganu, East Malaysians, Kelantanese etc etc have been taking turtle eggs in their diets regularly. This greatly reduces the number of hatchlings that go to sea, which in nature already don't have a high survival rate. An estimation made was that only 1 in 1,000 hatchlings survive long enough to mate and nest, not very good huh? A clutch of eggs is about 100 and females nest about 4-6 times in the nesting season, give it a maximum of 600 eggs there. Not even enough for one to survive. Oh, recent findings say that turtle eggs have high heavy metal concentrations which are really toxic, and it causes cancer. (BE AFRAID)
  
• We are involved in their habitat destruction: Development, when uncontrolled, destroys their food source and habitats. An interesting fact here is that hatchlings actually head to sea when they hatch based on the light reflected from the sea, which makes it confusing for them when other light sources (made by us) shine at night. They actually head for light towers and other light sources AWAY from the sea *arghh* though this is being dealt with by turtle sanctuaries. When in desperate need, they stand at the water line and shine a torchlight at the hatchlings.
• Our Rubbish: We dump a lot of rubbish, and most pertinent here I'd say would be plastic bags. These gentle giants eat jelly fish, and floating plastic bags in the sea ain't something they're used to. They mistake em for jelly fish and eat em up, often in the long run, choking themselves to death. Reusable bags anyone?
• We hunt them and make legislations we don't practice: From the turtle trip I just came back from, we learnt that even after the ban of leatherback turtle egg consumption and sale was enforced, there still are unethical donkeys out there selling them in the market, as though they are above the law. Quote "Kami ni orang Terengganu, tak apa lah" (We're Terengganu people, it's alright). Nah ah.
• They're cute: Don't you want to continue seeing them getting up their beach with their flippers or gliding like big-shelled birds in the sea? I've yet to see one while snorkeling but that's the plan. I got plenty of turtle pictures and maybe I'll put up some when I'm free to convince ya =D
• They're living fossils: They've been around even before the Dinosaur (ROAR) era, my friends, more than 150-200 MILLION years ago. And they've done fairly well to survive this long, with their population decline only comin about this century. Now, now, would YOU and YOUR RACE like to be held accountable for the extinction of 200 MILLION YEAR OLD living fossils?

So If you think you wanna help, I've got a petition with me that you can sign to hopefully make our government enact and enforce better turtle conservation laws. Thus far, only SOME states (that don't really practice it) have legislations, and usually only the leatherback is protected. If you wanna sign it to do your part, contact:

me: kienz@hotmail.com
or michelle: monitorlizzie@hotmail.com

before Monday.

EVERY SIGNATURE COUNTS, SAVE EM TURTLES!

Michelle..

An intermission from Ma'Daerah posts is dedicated to MICHELLE, who likes all things BIG!

Ngeehee

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!

Hope you had a GREAT one =D

For this post/occasion, I have saved up pictures I have been eager to post. Let's all have a taste of Michelle.

Michelle and her best bud (together known as the inseperable testicles), Jac (right)
That's her and I, looking mischievous there Mich =D
These pictures were actually taken hours before her departure to Russia, in which she studies at currently, our dear lil girl =D

Michelle, hope you don't mind, I'm gonna showcase some of your talent =)

She draws
WELL

Those are coloured photostats of her actual drawings =D From our time in form 5, 4 years or so ago. Happy Birthday once again kawan!

Ma'Daerah 1

was simply fantastic =) and that's Michelle in the bus. The expression below sums up the amount of fun I had

Yeah!

These were the flashing bright sandals I had to wear for the whole trip, for my usual pair kapooted, thanks dad >_<

Despite the two hour or so bus breakdown (front tyre went PoOf!)

Yup..
Some were happy (Why, Jin?)

A very bored trio of Celeste, Mat-diu Matthew and Bob.
A nice picture by Bob, Karak highway
That's Bob, looking REAL happy =D (chor dai di)

What a way to break my holiday-free streak, with the sighting of 4 turtles and one floating up and down at the coast. We got to see two nestings, though one of them only allowed us to see her post-nesting decoy nest-making procedure (she kicked a lotta sand at us with her flippers). During the day, we actually got to release a juvenile that was caught stuck in some pond, after it has been tagged of course. Here he/she is

Being set free, the blood on the right flipper was from the tagging.

Our little celebrity getting paparazzi-ed by us nosy people.
Turtle tracks.
"bye fellas"
Off it goes with a sploosh~

The tyre bust I mentioned caused us to reach bout 11pm or later on that day, which really left us with little time and energy for much else but a short briefing and dinner (Food was provided everyday, they served eggs, eggs, eggs, eggs.. and Oh I forgot, eggs)

The first morning greeted us with pinkish skies, big waves, sandy beaches

Check

A stoner..
Check

And two posers.
Unfortunately, check

Then..
"Now I'm stronger, than yesterday" (psst, it was styrofoam)

After the sun came up properly, we played 'seal', braving the waves and getting repeatedly slapped by mother nature. It was fun though, we must be real bitchy to love getting slapped like that.

The bunch that were there. Michelle was the only sensible one to have her camera for pictures here.

I'd love to finish my post here in the uni library with its splendid connection, but I hear people needing to use the computer and I feel rather inconsiderate using it like that >_<

To be continued, with the rocky shores

Doing the Impossible

It's been bout three and a half years since I've been on a vacation where I'm allowed to stay over at somewhere other than home, and I'm rather looking forward to it even though at the back of my head I know I got a bloody genetics report awaiting me when I'm back. I hope all goes well =)

Ma'Daerah, Terengganu, here I come

And I really hope my baby cousin's fine, she's diagnosed with encephalitis and it's rather scary. Suspected source either mycoplasma or herpes virus, whichever it is, leave her alone already alright, she's only three.

Aihh, get well soon girl =(

*will be away from civilization till Sunday*

X-

tremely and hopelessly horny.

My friend (X - unknown, nyahaha) and I were happily chatting away when the mention of some X-tremely horny soul out there sparked my friend to say...

X says:
he's the worst la seriously
X says:
why is he so horny one!!!!
X says:
anything also... ya cannot escape his dirty mind
X says:
must be dirtier than the toilet bowl
X says:
100000000000x more microorganism inside his head

Do you have a friend that fits the description? Who comes to mind first man? =D (not me I hope)

wtf man Jo Kien?

I hate it when this happens

"I'm supposed to be doing my Genetics report, but I stone"

And I make hopelessly lame WTFTW logos using paint too.

Roar~!

(When you 'roar' in italics, you have to do that tilting your position at an angle in person)

OI! Diu date Friday ah stiupid, faster do!

Random moment: A Final Attempt at Avoiding my Aquatic Biology Report

I saw the name "Theodore" on my MSN contact list. Looking at this unique name made me break it down to its components again, like how Analysis became anal-lysis.

My conclusion was that, the first ever person named "Theodore", stank real bad all the time, and was famous for it. Because..

Theodore => The + Odour

It's so prestigious it even sounds majestic to a certain extent.

"Hello my friends, may I introduce to you my childhood friend, The-Odor"

Come on Jo Kien, that was a lame attempt at avoiding work.

JK: OK, fine, I'll continue with work then =(

*Btw, Theodore if you ever read this, its purely of entertainment value and I really didn't mean to say that you stink... even if I think you do =)

More conversations ripped

This is where the confusion starts, the picture that sparked a ridiculous comment from Jaclyn..

"Is that a pineapple in your picture?"



OOf! That was like a 200 pound punch in the stomach!

Tell me, is it an animal, or a fruit?
Great, now I'm sure you already know it's a eniram eltrut (read it backwards if you haven't already deciphered it)

Anyway, that's when I put this on my pm on msn

"Jaclyn says my display picture's a Pineapple -_- Tony too!"

and someone had to approach me..

I'm so famous they're writing books for me! Pee-Sang, Wo ai ni.
Ngiahahahah!

Note: Friends at a crop science field trip last year were trying to get me an english name to go along with. Being uninterested, I rejected about all their suggestions and came up instead with Pěe Sáng, an English name with a Malay twist, which also means Banana.

In response to..

Aquatic Biology

I've been studying (still should be, but gimme a while) for my aquatic biology test tomorrow and I've come to remember all these funny names that people give living creatures to insult them

Here're some examples. There're birds that are called 'boobies' and another species called 'tits', not to forget a species by the name of "shags". These are common names though, not the Latin names using the Linnaeus system (e.g. Homo sapiens). Also, there are "Priapulan worms" that are named after some Greek penis God, which translates literally, to "penis worms".

I don't get how those birds got named that way, but for the Penis worms..

I guess they do have a point, don't they?

Of Invitations for Sex and Ice Cream

As I fought a losing battle to go Swensen's for lunch and SKIP GENETICS by Shim, Tony and Poing on MSN, I checked my mail to forget this coercive trauma.

My choice of distraction was not wise, invitations are everywhere =_= WTH man, I know I'm single and all, but do I really NEED that?

Pylian Ambience

And yes, I'm skipping lecture for ice cream, so sue me!

Hot Fat Rice, Corrosive Tom Yam and Nostalgia

My sinner of a dinner was at a lil Malay hawker stall behind Centrepoint, where there is a big faded sign saying "Nasi Lemak Panas". Yeap, true to its name, it serves kickass sambal that forces you to buy more drinks and it gets even better, you can order tom yam soup from the next stall like my mom did to burn some holes in your stomach and intestines. Improves nutrient flow, ya know? Why do I keep thinking of this flaming post?

What's that?

Is that shades I see?
Yup, that's ma new pair of Speedo's =D I thank my parents for their generosity.

Just the other day, I was packing up my stuff the night before going to bed when I noticed my lab coat conspicuously displaying its faded Taylor's college logo in my direction. I didn't hesitate to give it its due *snap* with the phone. Looking at its faded logo reminds me of the years I've left college, and how transient a phase college really was for me, since SAM was only about 10 effective months. Nevertheless, its impact on me was profound, and I'll never trade it for anything, I cherish those days =) As a form of frugality nostalgia, I never bothered buying a new lab coat from my current uni and always wore that good ol' trustworthy Taylor's lab coat of mine, faded logo flashing proudly on my chest. G7, my SAM class, still remains rather vivid on my mind at times when I think back about college (and the donkey Nar that always coincidently wears that same red Nicole polo T that I WEAR on same days). I still remember walking across college to MAC center to photocopy stuff, to Kiosk for bread, empty classrooms to study/eat, the stinky C24 or 28 classrooms that always smelled like (rotten) shoes during Thursday morning ESL classes. Burger King days with my classmates when we needed a 'luxury lunch' =D Asia cafe, oh god, staple food =_=

On a more nostalgic front, I'm floating in the head listening to a song called "Moon River", sent to me by my ex. The file was left in my brother's com for a long time and I hadn't really bothered bringing it back onto my laptop till now =) Thanks for the song :) It set the mood for me to write like that =)

*Edit: I never knew "Moon River" was from a 1961 movie, sang by Audrey Hepburn, one of the most elegant ladies known =) I never knew her elegance extended to her vocal chords as well, what a soothing song =D

"Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me."

And so it continues taunting me... Bringing me a serene, dreamy happiness =)

Surprise, surprise

Whadaya know, my postulations were entirely out >_< I thought more people were gonna do my Nohairy Nohari window than the Johairy window, but thus far much to my dismay no one has touched the nohairy window -_- Somebody, degrade me! (so I can learn from my mistakes)

On another note, does that mean my friends are actually very nice people? *gasp* O_O

Hairy Windows

After experiencing prolonged periods of intense boredom (maybe it ain't that intense if it's boredom I'm describing here), I've decided to add some 'hoo-ha's to spice things up a notch or two; that's when I decided to make my own hairy Johari and Nohari windows. The former is an ego-stroking *urghhhh* application where you can go in and name my best traits, while the latter, is the darker Nohari window that grants you an opportunity you wouldn't wanna miss to degrade me =D hehe, I'm open to either anyway, not an advertisement, just out of boredom.

Links are to the right, under my "Fellow Brethren" list, Jo-hairy and No-hairy windows.

I sense more people will click on the Nohari window somehow =s

Oh yes, I just bought the same brown laptop sleeve as Michelle and Poing, it's the only one they have in Popular Bookstore anyway (that is of affordable range). Aihh, gonna be a uni-uniform bag soon.

Awhile ago...

This is a conversation that Tony sparked among us awhile ago in the library.. Guys will always be guys =D haha, I didn't even remember I had it saved

In case I've never introduced,

This, is the Infamed "Pylia face", named after Poh Yng (Poing/Poingers)

StarbuckZzzzzz..

I'm actually threatening to fall asleep in Starbucks, damn.. And I have a caffeine fix right beside me -_- Can't blame my body though, slept only after 4 last night (after that alcohol and supper), woke up for a walk in kiara hill with mom today at 8 and then went to the gym till bout 10. Added my own workout and stretching to it till bout 11 at home after that. Breakfast felt like dinner (the sheer amount of food.. urgh) and now I'm pooped -_- Hero Kien does it again, abuses his body with activities and deprives it of sleep!

It's really not that I didn't wanna sleep, I can't!

gahhh, turn my biological cock clock back where it should be.

Wake up! Assignment time!

Another day of being Gay

Gay meaning HAPPY, of course =) Had a few light drinks in Republic, a bar, with my fellow donkeys of war (also known as uni friends). Listing: Shimbo, Michy, Armando Amanda, Poingers and James, Tony, Jin&Laverne, Su Ann&Waikit (spelling?), Whee! Kiat Alvin and Dorin! (Boy, that took me a while to list)

My drinks
1. House white RM13
2. House red RM 13
3. Midori Melon RM 15

I feel that much poorer, but at least I had fun =D

Ah well, every lazy workhorse deserves a break or two right? In this case I had two of course, yesterday and today =D Now, don't accuse me of being an alcoholic, I was just being nice and polite by attending a drinks-session when called by my very nice and sincere fellow donkeys =D

I promise myself I won't be under the influence of alcohol tomorrow when I type my next post so if I'm wasted or drunk I just won't post!

Many interesting pictures were taken with Shim's camera, including pictures of James and I being each other's bitches, Amanda having an absolutely KO face, Poing with a "kiss-me-I'm-ready" face, me making a guest appearance in a lovey-dovey Jin&Laverne picture etc. I'll link em up when someone posts them =D

*Edit -> Someone has indeed posted them =D

Also, I finally saw the girl that had the intense-eyed expression while giving a 'bedroom-rock-performance' (she was foolin around playin rockstar) in person today, it was hilarious seeing someone you've seen in a picture like that act so prim and proper in person =D
