Aloooo!!

Yes, this is yours truly! No, I haven't forgot about my blog!! Did my blog miss me? If my blog can talk, it will just say FUCK YOU to me wtf.

Anyway, the reason I am blogging at such ungodly hour is because I can't sleep. Nah, just kidding. I am on the way to KLIA!! Quick, ask me why!!! Since you ask so politely (I am so lonely that I assume people actually ask me fml) I am flying off to Hong Kong!!

Yeah man! I was rushing my work and hence the super less update for December. Let me think of a topic to blog about. Looking at my surroundings, I got nothing wtf.

Anywhere I should visit in HK? Alright, that's all for now. I am practically sleep blogging now wtf. Don't miss me (please miss me wtf).

Calv out!

5 Ridiculously Addicting Memes

Thanks to this video, I can finally brush the dust off this article. It has been sitting in my drafts collecting dust. Plus, all my info are mostly typed out wtf.



There were a lot of definition for meme but for now, I just want to touch on Internet meme. Make my life a bit easier. Anyway, here's a very simple definition of meme: An image, video, etc. that is passed electronically from one Internet user to another. OK, so that's not that clear. Here's what I think it should be: Ideas and concept that spread via Internet.

That's that. Now onto my top picks for favourite memes:

5 - I can has cheezburger?



The power of bad grammar or typo has earn its place in history. Err, I think so. Anyway, combine this with a cat and you will get LolCats. Initially, I really don't know what's so funny about it but it has its own charm.

You have this all thanks to a dude name Eric Nakagawa. With 1.5 million hits a day, he is LOL'ing for himself. It must be the mix heritage wtf.

Anyway thanks to that, you will get a lot more cats with their cat-astrophic grammar wtf wtf. Must be the lolcats effect.

4 - Horrifying House guest



I like horror so this meme is a no brainer. Normally, memes are suppose to make you laugh if not insulted. But take a look at this one and you know you'll definitely feel uneasy after reading the captions. BOO wtf.

It first came about as a great pencil sketch. Then it got spread around with people adding text to the image an cropping it. And then the popularity increased. If you don't know this, it is still alright. The sketch first appeared this year on June 28.

This is one of my favourite.



Oh well, that's it. Just make sure you are a good runner. The light switch seems awfully far from you.

3 - Awesome smiley



I am ashamed to say that I've never actually seen this before until I saw Wei Lian using this as her Firefox background. This smiley gain popularity in forums. The Awesome Face was actually part of a few emoticons designed for the Pokemon-related web forum Pokemopolis. To find out more about it, just head over here.

The reason for using this smiley is very simple. It is a sign of approval. Saw a delicously cooked bacon topped with whatnot from expensive market? Awesome smiley. Beat someone in an Internet comment debate? Awesome smiley. Think my blog is cool? Awesome smiley. wtf

2 - Trollface



One of the most epic memes is the Trollface. In the face of disaster or absurd, he is there. Plus, with a face like that, anyone will want to punch the person. As you know, the Trollface is very successful as it has one of its own comic site.



The origin of this meme is sort of the ultimate trolling. A MSPaint comic made by deviantArt user Whynne about the pointless nature of trolling was uploaded on September 19th, 2008. That means he was AGAINST trolling. He wanted to base the face on a character called Rape Rodent. Little did he know that this comic he drew created a trollface Internet phenomenon!

The original comic:


The irony works against Whynne. But I thank him wtf.

1 - Nyan Cat



Oh yeah, I was addicted to this. Like seriously. Imagine listening to it for almost an hour. The same repetitive music. The same cat. The same space. After that, all I could say was nyan nyan nyan nyan the whole day wtf.

We have this wonderful phenomenon thanks to a dude who called himself prguitarman. Before Nyan Cat, he named it Pop Tart Cat. The evolution of its name is thanks to a YouTuber, saraj00n, who uses a Vocaloid's song called Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya. I kid you not. Such songs were ACTUALLY composed (by a Japanese artist named Daniwell-P)wtf.

Despite all the craziness, when Pop Tart Cat and Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya combined, it became a land filled with gold. Right now, you can even go to an official site for you to test how long you can stand it: http://nyan.cat/ . It is no joke that we need a cat that shits rainbow as the ambassador for world peace. Seriously wtf.

Just click here for one more Trollface before I end my article.

Calv out






















































If you actually did that you've been Rick Roll'd!

Bonus

The pop song "Never gonna give you up" was sung by Rick Astly. How this happen is quite simple. In the beginning, it was known as Duckroll. I seriously have no idea how did that happened. That's when you will see a duck in wheels.

After awhile, it evolved to this thanks to the wonders of Youtube. The idea here is to trick a user (you if you did click, HAHAHA) to click on a fake link by providing them fake information such as "THE NEW PREVIEW OF AVENGERS 2012" or something like that wtf.

For an in depth read, like seriously a research was actually done about memes, here you go.

Calv out (for realz)



























































It is actually here.
Kthxbye.

Calv out! (for realz, for realz)

Horrible incident

Long and whining post ahead. If you have the time, please read it.

The short version is this: Colleague got robbed. Head got slashed. Report to police. Doctor don't want to treat because got medical report to fill. Police not helping in anyway. System is fuck up.



This is something horrible that happened a week ago. One of my colleague got robbed. That's not the worst part. He got slashed as well. Worst still, THAT is not the worst part. First, let me start with his story. He was walking to his car and got his head into the car when two idiots approached him.

The first guy tapped his shoulder. When my colleague looked back, his head got hit by the guy's machete (parang). He was bleeding but not profusely. The next guy kept on poking his stomach with a GUN. What you expect to happen? They took his stuff and ran off in a black car (not local car). My colleague went to office without realising that his head was bleeding. Talk about shock.

When I arrived at office and heard the whole story, I was of course shocked as well. I followed him to the police station to help him translate from English to BM. The police was nice at first asking him the usual. Where it happen and how it happen. Do he recognise the people and car plate.

The horrific part starts now. After that, we need to fill up the medical part of the form. So we went to the clinic. Apparently private clinics refuse to treat him citing the reason that only government clinic or General Hospital can fill in the report. So we thought fine.

We returned to the police hoping that they could help us. But no! They said that all this is out of their jurisdiction. So what if it is out of their jurisdiction? Haven't they heard of the term GOOD SAMARITAN? Just take him to the nearest government clinic or hospital. Simple as that! And they call themselves police. Guess what, they did nothing so I got fed up and left the place to head to the nearest government clinic.

Later, I drove my colleague over to a government clinic near Jalan Usahawan. Pusat Keluarga something. That freaking clinic, mind you, a GOVERNMENT CLINIC, refused to treat him as well. I was about to shout at them for not wanting to treat an injured 50 YEAR OLD MAN. All this just because there was a police report to fill. What? So scared of police? Don't know how to write is it? You talk and I write. Simple.

So with that, we left that stupid place and headed for the GH, Hospital KL. I know that we can drop people off at the emergency section but that place SEALED it off! Seriously. How am I to drop him there?

I have to continue driving inside the GH area following a freaking long jam. IN THE HOSPITAL. There was no parking, no one to help us and no one to guide us. What happened next is that the line that the worker's there formed lead us all the way OUT from the hospital. Way to go. Great job.

My colleague, had enough of it, said that he won't file the medical report and just proceeded with the normal police report. Returning to the police station, we have to continue to file the report with out any medical report in it. After typing it out, we left the police station. He had to go back to office to WIPE the dried blood off his head. Can you IMAGINE if he was seriously injured. Thank everything else that he was alright.

Did I mention that while the policeman was writing the report, he stopped every time to chat with his colleague? Plus, he answered his mobile phone chatting away. Is this the kind of treatment you give to a VICTIM? If that is human, I rather not be a human. Our system is fuck up.

We need to be able to file a report with medical report WITHOUT having government clinic or hospital to treat people. Any doctor will do. So let's take a moment and think. If they do, then what if the clinic refuses to do so as well? That's fuck up too! YOU ARE A DOCTOR. THINK FOR HEAVEN SAKE THE REASON YOU BECAME A DOCTOR. If it is for money, then get the fuck off to hell. Doctors had to take an oath to help people. What happened to that oath?

Seriously folks, our system is entirely fuck up if we need to go through so many procedures. The police won't lend a hand because it is out of their "jurisdiction" and doctors refuse to help because there is a medical report that needs to be filled.

Now you know why a lot of crimes happen.

Calv out.

Quickie Jakarta for Samsung World Tour

Lucky me (seriously lucky, no joke) that I got to go to Jakarta, Indonesia for a Samsung event. Nah, I won't be touching on the event there. Work la, don't want to talk too much about it wtf.

Anyway, once we got there, we were rushed for a quick tour in the bus. So most of the pictures you see is mostly from inside the bus wtf.

Picture dump starting NOW:


This is our first stop. Some place like Sungei Wang but WAY bigger. This is the first time I had seen so many optical shops. Like the WHOLE row!!! It created like an optical illusion (pun intended wtf) as if a mirror is there. But thankfully couldn't see my reflection. Or my face will just splat over there wtf.


The Indonesia Monument. That's the closest we were able to go wtf.


You couldn't imagine my joy when I saw the beds. One for me and another one for me! My dream of sleeping horizontally came true wtf. Sadly, there is no time for rest fml.


The view from my room Shangri-la offered. Err, that's all wtf.


Ritz Carlton's shopping area. Reminds me of JW Marriot in KL but much brighter wtf.


My attempt at not sucking with fine dining fail miserably.... T.T


The power of bamboo. Who needs steels? We should adopt this. Maybe Jackie Chan will come.


Just because I can.


Our last stop before heading to airport. That shrimp was looking at me like "I dare you to eat me!" and I did wtf.


Oh, that's the name of our last stop.

Err, that's about it. Not so bad right? I feel like a mix of food blogger blend with architecture photographer wtf.

Seriously, there was really no time for me to sit and observe people. If there was time, you'll get to see at least one crummy picture of myself. You know, vain pot attempt wtf.

Here's two things I learnt from the tour guide while I was in Jakarta.

Private own cars need to have at the very least three passengers. If not, the police can saman! Yea, they will fine you 300,000 Rupiah! So the driver's solution is to pick up passengers along the way. There will be people standing on the road with their index finger pointing up showing them that they are available. Best part is, other than the free ride, they get PAID for siting in the car. From 25,000 Rupiah onwards. I could do that as a side income wtf.

Another thing was the fact that you can really see the divide between the poor and the rich. Just look at the houses and you'll know. It moves gradually from wooden houses to brick houses to high rise apartments. But according to our tour guide, even the poor can make money. They will normally stand around U-turn or traffic light asking for money. And in a day, they can earn 10,000 Rupiah. So in a year, their 'income' is 3,000,000 Rupiah. Not a lot but it is enough to survive.

Samsung Galaxy Nexus - New contender?

The hype over iPhone 4S should die down and then comes another one. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus will be launching during Q4 of this year. And what do you know, we are now in the Q4! Since October passes without the any sign of the phone's officially release, lets hope that November or December will be a better prospect. Right now, here's what you need to know:



Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich

Yes, Android decides to sweeten things up with this. The Galaxy Nexus will be the first phone with the latest Android on it. Two most distinctive feature from Android 4.0 is Face Unlock and Android Beam.



Firstly is the Face Unlock feature, which is already self-explanatory. Just peer into the front-facing camera, and it will read your face to unlock the phone. This is just one of Google's way to beef up your phone's security. But here's the thing, will this truly work for you or against you? You can't really get it to recognise your face at one try. Remember the Face Unlock failure here? Looks like we have to wait to find out more.

Next is the Android Beam. This feature allows you to share information by just tapping the Galaxy Nexus with another NFC-enabled device. You can expect websites, videos, directions, and apps zapped from one phone to the other. And by reading this, you'll know that the Galaxy Nexus is also an NFC-enabled device. Let's hope that we can make use of Google Wallet in the near future with this.



Other than that, say hello to voice typing. Well, nothing new here because voice to text have been around for quite awhile. This could be the improved version of it. As a Google phone, there will be Google Plus built into the smartphone. And for those widget lovers, you can finally resize your widget to your liking.

Display

This is normally the first thing you noticed in a phone. Coming in at 4.65 inches (1280 x 720 pixels), the Galaxy Nexus is still within the 4-inch range. That's good as it can sit comfortably in your hand without needing to stretch your fingers a little. On a personal note, the most I can take from any phone is a display that is less than 5 inches. Anything more than that will be a drag (hint: Samsung Galaxy Note at 5.3).



Also, it has a HD display meaning you will get a lot of crisp images on your phone. Unlike the Galaxy SII, it uses Super AMOLED display and it still looks great. Sure, it would be nicer with Super AMOLED Plus as there will be great depth in pictures but from the looks of it, the display still presents itself well. Do take note that the larger display could result in lower pixel density meaning that it may not be the sharpest one in the market.

Here's another surprise, you won't get Gorilla Glass with this latest Android phone. You heard it right. But don't worry. Samsung said that it uses a 'fortified glass' and nothing more. Looks like we need to wait again to know for sure the kind of glass they used. The device also boast Contour Display where it curves to the shape of your face. Well, that's what Google said but it is hard to tell without having the phone here with us.

Lights, camera, action!

Here's a bit of a disappointment. The camera on Galaxy Nexus is only 5 megapixels. But let's not forget that MP isn't everything. That's just how big it can be use to print a picture. Despite that, it can take HD pictures so don't worry too much on that department. You can view sample shots from the smartphone through engadget.



With the 1.2 GHz dual-core processor backing it up, taking picture is in a faction of a second. After snapping a picture, the camera will be ready for another action almost immediately. Not to mention, you can quickly access the camera through the lock screen, which is convenient, when you want to take picture immediately.

You can also record Full HD (1020p) thanks to the power of dual-core. As an added bonus, the phone gives you the ability to zoom while video recording. Well, that's about it in the video department.

Other specs



You'll get 1,750mAh battery with Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The reason is because the device could use up a lot more power with its big display.

There will be a 16GB and 32GB version of the phone for you consider. It seems that there is no slot for microSD card, which is too bad. The LTE version will be available depending on region. So that could possibly translate to us getting the 3G version of Galaxy Nexus.

Impression

It looks like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus has the kicks to be a great phone. But let's not forget that it has quite a few worthy rivals like the iPhone 4S and Motorola Droid Razr. Take away Android Ice Cream Sandwich from it and the smartphone is just another higher end ordinary device. Let's hope that the launch of Samsung Galaxy Nexus will propel more phones that will fully utilise the Android 4.0. I'll leave you with the video introducing the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

Music through time in awesome pictures!

If music can be interpreted in picture, isn't it awesome? Of course it is very hard to do so but I would like to try it out wtf.

Over the time from cave people until now, music evolves. So let's start with the wonderful years of being caveman and cavewoman (I don't discriminate), where everything is back to basic.

Famous music lyrics from back then: "Aaaaaahhh!!"



So this should be the painting for it:



Next is around the year 1000. Yes, I am leaping few thousand years later because I need to get some sleep wtf.

This is when there is actually harmony.

Famous lyrics from back then: "Ah aaah aaaaaahhh beh!"


Without this, you won't get Linkin Park. Think about it wtf.

Oh, and the picture interpretation for it:


Yes, I cheated. I can't draw this for nuts wtf.

And then came the era of silent film. Yes, that's the time when you can only see the the dialogue after the actor's mouth moves! Everything is illustrated by music. Err, yea, this is in the 1900s or before that. Don't ask what happen to opera. It is in the 1597 from Italy. That's all you'll get from me wtf.

Famous lyrics from back then: "..................................."



Here's the picture again:



It is not Hitler or cowboy or Hitler pretending to be a cowboy wtf. CHARLIE CHAPLIN!

Introducing, the era of boy bands! This is where hormone raging girls scream and faint for them while their boyfriends sulk and plot to kill them off with pencils. Yup, the boybands will dance and sing just for your entertainment. 1950s is the acapella types and in the 1960s, you heard of the Jackson 5? Does Michael Jackson ring a bell? Yes, he is from that group. And black plus handsome wtf. Back when MTV was cool!

Famous lyrics from then: "Easy as A,B,C 1,2,3"



Picture bla bla bla:


(Insert witty comment, too lazy to think)


And finally, music at this time. Lovers of this song will be my hater:

Famous lyrics: "FGeoaot aopmvp[a aopwjbma[pp tnka" (Writer's note: sarcasm intended)


Oh God. This is the first time I watch the video. Erase my memory NOW.

Yes, some starts to make no sense at all. So here's the last pic:


Seriously. We are back in ancient times.

Short update

No offense.... hahahaha

Nothing major here. Just a short update.

Recently, I have to say good bye to my column called "Should I really get it?" that talked about smartphone and tablet accessories from Bluetooth devices to backseat iPad holder. It was fun while it lasted but I decided to end it as thinking from a readers point of view, it is not that interesting FML.

Anyway, there will be a new corner called "What's in your bag?" and again it is lead by yours truly. This time, instead of devices I will be focusing on people. And if by now you still don't know what this corner is about, go to the toilet and dunk your head in the toilet bowl wtf.

Anyway, if you are out of the toilet already, the column will be about the things in people's bag. Yes, I will be your personal space invader.


Get it? Get it? Personal "space invader" wtf

Of course I will be looking for your gadgets first instead of the condom or make up kit in your bag wtf.

So look out people, if this stranger suddenly approach you, please don't run away. YOU are source of my story, YOU will appear in the magazine not me (I-wish-I-have-my-5-minutes-of-fame wtf).

Nah, here's a draft of your page wtf:


Aren't you glad I am not the one designing the mag wtf.

See, such a big spread for you!!! Woah!!!

Please support my column (blinding you with white sparkly shiny teeth wtf)

Goodbye CBOX

This has been a thing that plagues me when I started to blog again. Zombies wtf no! Here's the damn thing, bloggers do have a thing called Chatbox. It is a wonderful creation as it reduce steps to comment on people's blog. I love it. I use. I want keep it here forever like the hairs on my head (Yes, I do fear that I will go botak wtf). Here's the sad thing, in a week time, I may remove it. Sorry all my loyal readers (if I have any wtf).

The reason (no, don't go Hoobastank on me) is very simple. Too many "noise." Noise as in "idiots." Idiots as in "losers." OK, OK, I know. This can go on forever. What I really meant was PEOPLE WHO WANTS TO DIE! As in SPAMMERS wtf.

Seeing so many people posting on my cbox made me feel great. Hey, I AM FAMOUS. Until I saw the links. Screw them for destroying my 15 seconds of *cough not really cough* fame. There goes all my self-confidence wtf. My lawyers are working to get RM1mil for me wtf.



The culprits are from two particular websites. First is BLOGOBO and the other is LEPAK.MY. No way am I linking them. Go Google them yourself. Yes, that is how much I dislike those sites (I don't link them back wtf). If I can benefit superior traffics from their visits, then it is fine. I will simply accept their spams.

Best part is the fact that they tried to hide it. Pretending that they are conversing with me like nothing happen. One of these days, I'll come to haunt you at night (look for the guy with a laser pointer wtf) - refer to P.P.S. Anyway just let me blow off some steam:



Firstly DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW YOU? Yea, of course I do! Your name is "abg hero." A real life hero!!! OMG. And yes "Que," long time no see. When was it the last time we chat? I knew you 2,302,312,234,642 years ago, right? After being resurrected 54,125,235 times, we finally met again. Ah, "Elly," she is a beauty queen you know? All the way from INeverExistLand. She withdrew from Miss Universe because she is out of this universe! Geddit? Geddit? fml.

Secondly, my friends, when they visit my blog, will comment in the comment section. If not, those who posted on cbox, will at least mention what I wrote in my blog post. These spammers who comes from INeverExistLand will post stuffs like "Just make another visit" or "Like your blog, hope you like mine." Let me quote from my friend, Clement: "DO I LOOK LIKE I FUCKING CARE?"

Finally, the link. Usually, friends that comment on my cbox will not leave links or if they do, they will TYPE (OK, maybe copy paste wtf) their link! Don't you even bother giving me a shortened URL from bit.ly or adf.ly, or gofuckyourselfloving.ly. I will NEVER reply you. Seriously.

Well, that's all from me. Actually, I have no idea what to write about. So I ended up complaining again wtf. No, I am not an angry man in real life. I seem to take on a different personality online wtf. But this is a serious matter. It is even worst than your friend posting 1,000 pictures of themselves on Facebook!

Credit: to whoever drew this. Please, if you know the contributor, do inform me.

Calv out.

P.S. If you do know any benefits from receiving spams, you can tell me about it. Or at the very least, stop it from entering my cbox wtf.

P.P.S. I really do own a laser pointer thanks to Wei Lian. <3

Facebook Timeline: You tell your story

*UPDATE - What if you want to get Timeline now? Check out the steps posted by Mashable.



For sometime, people should noticed the few minor changes to their Facebook page. Some lucky (or unlucky) ones got it earlier. Thankfully, this writer got it when they did the very early stage of changes. Today, many people should be getting their updates. Not sure about that but it seems that way. Be prepared as it is just a half-update. The man in blue, Zukerberg, has a plan.



More to come and you know it. Let's start with what we know. No more separating the "Most Recent" and "Top Post" anymore. What you get is a clean timeline. And yes, soon, you will know it as Facebook Timeline. If you didn't notice another changes, here you go: there is also the Ticker.

Two of a kind

So what does all this mean? Think of the Ticker like Twitter. They sound almost the same, so you can remember their functions as well. This, according to Zukerberg, is the lightweight social activity. You will see every status updates, every comments, every share and every everything your friends do in a fast pace direction.

The Ticker on your right above the chat feature

Let's not forget that back when Facebook first started, it was all EVERYONE will know this and that. It took them long enough to realise selective sharing. Not everyone needs to know everything. You don't want your parents to find out what happened last night after clubbing do you?

Choose the story line

Not only you get to select who you want to share it with but you can tell your own story. Don't like what's going on with this post? Hide it. Think that this event highlights your best effort, star it! Technically, the new Timeline will filter out the junk on your page. Think of the new Facebook Timeline as a blog. You blog what you want and they can't find any *ahem* crap *ahem* in it.

Let the apps help guide the story

Aha, could it be a threat from apps available for Google Chrome? Did Zukerberg feel the heat? Well, that we don't know but the new Facebook comes with a more sync apps. It will sound a little confusing because Facebook apps will now broadcast to Timelines and Tickers separately.... And automatically.

Your info when you allow it

What? This is outrages!! I want my rights!!! Yes yes, calm down. Of course you can disallow these services. If you do allow it, here's how. What you like or comment will instantly appear on your Ticker. However, your Timeline, in theory, would feature a summary. Let's use an example. Let's say you like this music so much. It will appear ASAP on your Ticker. After awhile, while collecting all the music you like, the Timeline will produce a summary of that month telling people that you like Rock music.

Remember, once you approve an app, it will work from the dark. Fading itself to the background. It will collect your information like how many miles you ran with RunKeeper app or your last watched movie. You can tell that Facebook want their apps to be accepted even more now. If not, what's the use of their new Timeline? There will be no stories to tell if you don't approve any apps.

In the end..

Well, you know that people always complain that they hate the Facebook update. Right now, how will the public react to this MAJOR update. It is a big thing. Let's hope they don't disappoint 800 million Facebook users. All of these tweaks are available now to most users. You should notice a pop-up prompt that will give you a brief guide through the changes. Take note that the Ticker is the box on your right.

For those of you who want to take part in this big change, you got to get in line first. Head here to check out how will your profile look like at the end of this month. You can sign on if you want to. The first batch of Timeline will be out on 29th September in America.

I got no sole

I would like to begin by bursting your bubble wtf. No, it is not the hey-I-sold-my-soul-to-the-Devil soul. It's more of a shoe's sole. Just in case you don't get my title wtf (cue sad music).



Seriously, it happened twice. Last year and this year. I bet it will soon be an annual thing since it's two years in a row. Oh what did I do to deserve this wtf. I bet you during my past life I was, a thief. Who steals shoes fml.

Alright, back to those incidents. First one was last year during marathon. Standard Charted KL Marathon 2010. Ahh... That fateful day. With sun shining, less than three hours of sleep and overtook by a girl (Wei Lian wtf). Good times. Good times. Oops, did I type that twice? Well, that's on purpose. Again, I got sidetracked wtf.

Imagine me running for the past hour and I saw the sign, 9km. Wow, one more kilometer and I will get my SOLID metal medal (no gold, sorry wtf). Of course that motivated me to continue running *cough-walking-cough* and run I did *cough-crawling-cough* wtf. In that instance, I can hear the crowd but no finish line in sight yet. So I ran/walk/crawl harder. Really, I did.


Something like that but more severe wtf

Out of nowhere, the sole of my shoe decided to fly open. It has a mouth people!!! The angle of the mouth open would put a crocodile/snake to shame. It can fit two and half Big Mac in it. Still I will keep on running. Duh, damn beh shiok right if I stop and quit when the end is near wtf. Beh shiok means "doesn't feel good" in Hokkien btw.

Proud to say, I reach the finishing line with one side of the shoe's sole flying off. So boys and girls, lesson here is: don't wear an old Bata shoe for marathon wtf.

Alright, the second incident would be more interesting if it happened on stage wtf. Seriously I kid you not. Don't worry, it did not happen during this year's Standard Charted KL Marathon. I used Bata shoes again wtf. Less than a year old wtf. (edited: to clarify, the Bata shoe again is for the marathon. I am not so loyal to Bata until I buy their leather shoes wtf)

What was suppose to happen that didn't happen!!!!!!

Anyway, this happened on 10th April 2011. Not quite recent but it is this year wtf. For HELP University College students, I bet you know what this date means. Convocation yo! Yay, the transition from a student to a jobless person wtf. During the event, of course we have to go up on stage, bow, shake hands, grab cert, pose, and go down. Wow, so many steps. You can thank me later future HELP UC graduates wtf.

During that time, nothing went wrong, phew. It was after the convocation when we are ready for food. As I was walking towards the restaurant, my LEATHER SHOE's sole came off!!!!! And you can imagine my family's reaction. PLUS my wonderful girlfriend, Wei Lian wtf. Of course the burst of laughters were there. And thanks to the swift action from my grandma, she managed to safe my sole wtf. I am sure she framed my sole up hanging it somewhere that I can't find it. I still can't wtf.

Err, yea, grandma before ordering the frame for it. Kidding!! Or am I? wtf

I know that all of you were hoping for it to happen on stage BUT thankfully it didn't. If it did, there goes all my future prospect jobs wtf. Imagine during interview:

Interviewer: Hey, aren't you the dude who left your sole on stage? HAHAHAHA.. That was hilarious!

Me: Err.. Yea..

Interviewer: I mean, c'mon, for it to happen DURING your convo!! Can you imagine the embarrassment?

Me: Hahaha........ Yea, so unexpected....

Interviewer: I know, how can you live with yourself!! OMG, I get to tell this to my colleagues too!

Me: *gives interviewer lots of paper cuts while stabbing his eye with his pen on his desk*

Warning, graphic picture, oops too late

See, that's why I can never get a job if that happens. Thank God, only my family will remember it as "the day Calvin's sole came off" instead of "the day Calvin graduated" fml.

OK, that's all. Kthxbye.

Calv out.
