Merry Christmas...

Ah, Christmas...
It's here at last!

Sadly, I won't receive any presents...
But hey, who cares? ( sigh... )

I'd just like to wish you guys...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!*

* As if! With PMR just around the corner, I'd be very surprised if anyone was ''happy'' next year!

To peace!

May the Force be with you...

I Am Not Your Master!

Hey guys, guess what?

I changed my main title. I found the 'I Am Your Master!' title a bit too awkward. So I changed it to 'Nobody's Perfect...', after much consideration, of course.

Oh by the way, do you know about 'Mamma Mia!' The Musical?

Apparently, The Setia Alam and Setia Eco Park residents who win a lucky draw actually receive 2 'Mamma Mia!' tickets for free! When my mother's number was called and she went on stage to receive the tickets, my brother was jumping with joy ( He loves 'Mamma Mia!' )

My family is going to see the 'Mamma Mia!' concert tonight at 8pm...

Well, I'm not a 'Mamma Mia!' or Abba fan, so I'm going to be staying at home. At least my parents give me a choice! Honestly, I find the songs are not to my liking...

Well, that's it...

Keep me posted, kay?

To peace!

May the Force be with you...

I Miss School...

[ sigh ]...I miss school...

...It's so boring at home...

...sure, I don't have to wake up at 6 a.m every morning...

...sure, I don't have to listen to the teachers boring lectures during assembly...

...but that's not the point...

...I miss my friends...

...I miss you guys so much...

...especially Kent, Hazwan, Kar Wai, Leek, Ah Keong, and Haziq...

...They helped me get used to Bukit Jelutong...

...I would post some pictures of all my friends here...

...But I don't have any...

...I never got the chance...( sobs uncontrollably )

Sorry for being so emo...

But it's the truth...

Keep me posted, guys!
Okay?

To peace!

May the Force be with you...

I want an Xbox!


I want an Xbox 360!

I want to experience the graphics and performance for myself!

I WANT IT!

I also want a Playstation 3...
It's not as good as an Xbox...

But it does have Blu-ray...

So I say...
...is it too much to ask for both?

You know why I want these items?

My computer is SO unreliable, that's why!

It just shuts down for no reason at all! It doesn't even give you a warning! It just turns off!

How would you feel if you were halfway using the computer and suddenly it just shuts down by itself!? It's sickening!
I HATE it when it happens!!!

Oh by the way,
I know I'm copying Leek's blog about the 'Nintendo DS Wii', so what?

Anyway, the Wii is a respectable gaming console...It's not just some crap that Nintendo created!
In terms of gaming, it's quite awesome!

Well, that's it...
Keep me posted, okay?

I'm Not Gay!

Why does everyone think I'm a gay?

I don't understand why...

What did I do to make you guys think that way?

Is it my hair?
Is it the way I walk?
Is it the way I speak?

You can't call people gay without reason, okay?


I just wanna be a normal person!!!

Could you guys at least tell me why do you think I'm 'you know what'?
Especially Jas and Jannah!

I would really appreciate it...

Thanks!

May the Force be with you...

The results are Here!

I finally got my exam results! At first I thought it would never arrive, and suddenly it did!


I was halfway sleeping. It was around 10.00 am, I think. I heard a motorcycle rumbling outside my house. I thought it was just passing by. I was startled when I heard my mailbox fling open.

I woke up, showered and went downstairs. I ate my breakfast quietly. The only sound in my house was the distant rumbling sound of artillery.
My brother was using the computer. I guess he was to distracted to notice me...
I went outside and walked towards the mailbox. I assumed the letters in there must be for my parents...

And then I saw it...

A brown envelope, with two stamps on it...just like the ones I pasted on the envelope I handed to Pn Rukilawati ( Class teacher, 2008 ).

I was surprised and intrigued to see my name on it. Then my surprise turned to joy as I realised what was going on...

I ran back inside and closed the door. My heart was thumping wildly...as if it was going to just burst out of my chest.

Then my anticipation disappeared....

What if I got bad results?

What would my parents say?

I was extremely nervous. With my hands trembling, I slowly ripped open the envelope. At first, a knot formed in my stomach. I saw that I got a B for Geography and Sejarah. Then my eyes rolled towards my position in class.
What I saw made me sigh with relief...

Here are my results:
BAHASA MELAYU = 76 B
ENGLISH = 80 A
SEJARAH = 70 B
GEOGRAFI = 78 B
MATEMATIK = 86 A
SAINS = 92 A
KEMAHIRAN HIDUP = 82 A
PENDIDIKAN SENI = 83 A
PJK = 56 C
PENDIDIKAN MORAL = 93 A
PENDIDIKAN SIVIK = 76 B

Jumlah = 872 ( 79.27% )
Gred purata = 1.545

Kedudukan Dalam Kelas = 4 / 41
Kedudukan Dalam Tingkatan = 5 / 545

So I guess my hard work and effort actually paid off. My parents still aren't back from Johor. I can't wait to tell them! Hopefully, with enough perseverance, effort and constant vigilance, I might make my parents proud in the PMR examinations next year ( gulps with fear )...

Well, that's about it. Keep me posted, kay?
Thanks!

F***ing Messenger Service

Due to reasons I cannot explain, my MSN Messenger ceased to function. I'm trying to fix the problem, but so far all my efforts are fruitless. What happened?

Everytime I try to sign in, an error message appears that tells me that the messenger service is currently available...

It also told me to try again later, so I waited for an hour and tried again, but it still refused to let me sign in! Instead, the freaking message appeared AGAIN!

I'm so pissed off! I spent the whole morning attempting to fix the damn thing! I've tried everything I could think of, but THE F***ING THING WON'T F***ING WORK!!! ( breathes heavily )

So until I find a solution to the problem ( Trust me, I'll find a way! )...
I will be using Yahoo! Messenger once again...

If anyone can help me with my problem, I would really appreciate it...
Thanks!

False Alarm

Turns out I don't have to go to Johor after all...

Only my parents are going, so I'm going to be home alone with my brother...

Which only amplifies my boredom...(sigh)

On the flipside, my parents won't be monitoring me anymore, so I guess I'm going to be online until late at night...

Hopefully, my father doesn't have any secret CCTVs placed around my house. Then I would be so BUSTED!

And hopefully my brother doesn't become a Reuter and report everything to my parents. That would be the end of me...

May the Force be with you...

Heading for Johor...

I'm going back to Batu Pahat, Johor this Thursday.

If I'm not mistaken, I'll be gone for about 2 days.

I guess some of you will be happy during my absence because I won't be crapping in your cBoxes anymore, yes?

Anyway, I finally managed to make my MSN Messenger compatible with Windows Vista. So, I won't be using Yahoo! Messenger anymore...



Oh by the way, for those of you who do not know him, this is my little brother, Alvyn Ho Ken Aun.

Does he bear any resemblance to me?

Personally, I don't think so. We DO have certain similarities like:

1. We are addicted to video games.

2. We both are excellent in the field of swordsmanship.

3. We are both great artists...(???)

4. We are experts in computer engineering...
5. And a whole lot of other stuff!

So, I'm just saying it's great to have such a multi-talented guy as a brother...

I have trained him well...

One day, he will be just like ME!!! HA HA HA!!!

Well, that's it...

Leave some comments, kay?

New font...

I changed my blog font from 'trebuchet' to 'arial'.

To anybody reading this blog, please tell me if you like it...
If you don't like it, I'll change it to something else...

Leave the comment in my cBox, okay?
Thanks!

Victory! At What Cost?

In my last blog, I said I had to defeat my friend in badminton to receive a video game ( Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars : Kane's Wrath )...

When I reached the badminton academy, my hands were trembling...I was nervous...I knew the price of failure...

I greeted him and my other friends and we went inside. Many of my friends wished me good luck. I positioned myself and prepared for his attack...I had to focus...

He started the game, and I parried. We fought on ferociously...
He feinted, and I barely missed the shuttlecock by a mere inch...

I knew I couldn't give up hope...there were still 20 points to go...

I lost another 5 points to him, then I turned the tide ( to his surprise! ) and won the match ( At last! )

My confidence sky-rocketed. My friend appeared exhausted. With my heart pumping wildly and sweat riddling all over my body, I took the advantage and won another set...

I was overjoyed! My hard work and effort had finally paid off......................or so I thought...

Apparently, he FORGOT to bring the game to the academy...
I forgave him, being the sympathetic person that I am...

Then I went to celebrate my victory together with my friends...
The sweet smell of victory was overwhelming...Honestly, it felt so good!

Obviously, I was sad and disappointed because I didn't really get what I wanted. But I overcame ny grief in the end. Now I realise that it doesn't matter after all...It's just a video game ( sigh )...

On the other hand, I'm anxious about the exam results. What's taking so long?
I really hope it arrives before Christmas!

There Is Much At Stake

( Flashback )
...Video games are the greatest...

...the best things in life...
...the stuff that's woth living for...

...the annihilator of boredom...
...the saviour...

...of all mankind...
...and 'womankind' for a select few!
( Back to reality )

In my previous post, I went on about how great video games were...

Apparently, yesterday, one of my friends read this particular post...

He was willing to make a copy of his Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars : Kane's Wrath...
...and challenged me to a formal game of badminton...

If I win at least two sets, I'll receive the game...

...but if I lose, I will go home empty-handed...
( sighs )

Obviously, I am a big gaming fan, so this was a real bargain for me...

...I cannot fail...

...I must not fail...

The guy who challenged me also went for badminton lessons, so it's gonna take all my skill to beat him...

So please, for any of you reading this blog:
...this is a very important match...
...there's a video game at stake...
...I really need all the support I can get...

Wish me luck, okay?
.........especially from all you hardcore gamers out there...........

...what would we do without them?
Who agrees? Anybody concur? If so, please leave a comment in my Jedi Hologram ( cBox ). I would really appreciate it...

Here are a few video games ( Both RPG, FPS and RTS )* that I find enjoyable and interesting...

Sorry, guys!

Have you ever had the feeling that someone is annoying you until you can't take it anymore?

Well, I'm guessing that I'm that kind of guy...

I know I've been filling up people's cBoxes with loads of crap...

I know you guys don't like it...

I know you guys hate it...
But that's the way I am...
I enjoy updating whatever I can update...

So life won't be too boring for all of us...

I'm doing you guys a favour...

So just live with it!

Oh by the way, I also want to apologise to Yong Ee Lynn and Lee King - Lynn and I were ''arguing'' about Tom Cruise. In the process, we jammed Leek's cBox with crap about the pointless argument...( Sorry Lee King, it wasn't my fault! She started it! )

Lastly, Jas, I also think the word 'gay' is nice to say and all...but not exccessively! Please, don't say it too many times...I suggest saying it once or twice, alright?

Well, that's about it. Leave some comments in my cBox, okay? Especially you, Jas! I want to get some feedback.
And everyone, PLEASE, update your blog more often. Only Yi Ling seems to be the only person posting blogs frequently enough...

Christmas is Nigh...

I just came back from Pulau Langkawi yesterday. I'm damned tired! Apparently, the 'relaxing' holiday my parents planned meant circling the entire island in a rented hotel car! Not only that, the Sun was scorching hot and I think my skin got a few shades darker...

Sure it was interesting, taking pictures and all that jazz, but the experience left my entire family completely exhausted and drained of energy. I'm just so glad to be home...

And if Father Christmas ( Santa Claus ) really exists, I've been a really good person ( honestly )!
My wish list for Christmas ( although it might never come true, I'm still wishing anyway ) is:
1. A new PCIe graphics card or at least an AGP ( Accelerated Graphics Port ) for Windows Vista and hopefully Windows XP as well.
2. Command & Conquer Red Alert 3.
3. Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars Kane's Wrath.
4. An Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 ( Both have equally amazing graphics and performance ).
5. A new Chess set.
6. Star Wars The Force Unleashed ( It depends... )
7. Call Of Duty 4 ( The best game ever!!! )
8. The Matrix : Path Of Neo
9. Some new ringtones for my handphone.
10. Bluetooth service.
11. My face clears up ( No more pimples! Hopefully! )
12. Most importantly, I hope the exam results DON'T come out during Christmas!

If my exam results are good, some of the things on my wish list might come true...but I'm not confident...aren't we all?

And just because I like Science Fiction, it doesn't mean I'm a noob! I can be a cool guy if I wanted to! Just ask! ( I'm not boasting... )

I finally realised how great it is to be a free thinker ( people who don't believe in God / no religion whatsoever ). It leaves me free to celebrate any festival throughout the year. Many Christians I know ( except Lee King ) attempt to convert people by saying :
"If you are a Christian, you will have secured a place in Heaven and you will go there after you die. If you do not believe in God and Christianity, you will go to Hell, the pit of 'eternal suffering' after death."

For the Christians out there, I'm not saying it's wrong to believe in Christianity. Just don't try to convert people that aren't interested by threatening them with the belief of Heaven and Hell...

For all my friends in Bukit Jelutong, I'm afraid that I'm still unsure if I'm going to remain in SMK Bukit Jelutong. There's still a chance I might be going to the International School near my house...I really hope I see you guys next year...

Finally, please leave some comments in either my Jedi Hologram ( cBox ) or add a comment under this post. I'm getting very bored...I'm sure you all out there are suffering, too.

May the Force be with you...
