SF

San Francisco, not Shadow Fiend.

Wheee, I arrived here last night and am staying at the Marriott on Fisherman's Wharf.

We walked for half an hour to eat CHINESE FOOD.

Omg la.

I haven't eaten rice or any savoury food for TEN days, and my tongue felt like I dipped it in acid last night. But the food was AWESOME.

Better than in Msia.

Chinese food in SF is yummier than at home.

._.''

Anyway, I'm in the business center of the hotel, where the mouse sucks (hello feeding streak in DotA) so I decided to blog - no mouse needed o_o''

Lately, I've been eating a hellota food.

I ate 3 different cheesecakes in the space of an hour - it was DELICIOUS.

White Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake

Kahlua Coffee Cheesecake

Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake

The restaurant was super dark so I couldn't take any pics, unless I took out my tripod and put the shutter speed on slow (flash sucks.)

Therefore, no cheesecake pics for you guys =(

BUT HELL YEAH IT WAS AWESOME

The Cheesecake Factory - visit when you have the chance ^^

***

A few posts ago, I said I was gonna blog about my course right?

So now would be a good time - no America posts until I get back with pics (and a patient mood.)

So.

I am officially an IT student at Taylor's.

Subjects taken:

Compulsory

English as a Second Language (PFFT)

Mathematics (Apparently this is add math level, so...suxxx T.T)

Electives

IT (I think we're gonna do Microsoft, zzz)

Accounting (WTF)

Economics (And I did 3 years of science for these subjects -.-)

Ha. Ha. Ha.

Hello Stephie the Nerd.

People already call me that, so idc la. =x

Better nerd than stupid.

Anyway, I've decided to go to RIMT in Melbourne to do Digital Art.

I will be studying stuff like how to design characters, sound engineering, animation, 3D graphics, narrating - gaming stuff. SO COOL LA!

^^

Maybe I can design the next DotA, muhahahahahah!

But I don't think so la.

Anyway, SF is 16 hours behind Msian time, and tomorrow I'm flying off to New York, where it is 13 hours behind.

So if you wanna catch me online, do the math.

Gtg pack, will blog later.

Maybe.

=P

Song of the Day:

"Dreaming of You - Selena"

Hotel has a freaking iPod dock! How cool is that? =D

I'm alive!

Yes I am!
I mean yala, I haven't blogged since god knows when and I HAVEN'T DOTA-ED IN OVER A WEEK but I'm still breathing!

Ehhh, bathroom is finally free,
Gotta use then it's Universal Sudios today!

Just came back from 15 hours of Disneyland yesterday.
= =

Imet a real live celebrity!
Mickey Mouse!

How friggin' cool is that?
EVERYONE knows Mickey Mouse.

Not like you meet your favourite celebrity and they go 'Matt WHO?'

=x

Ling tagged me, I'll do it later.
Took notes about my trip, will blog later.
Till then bye bye, =)

I've forgotten all of you.
Muhahahahahah!


Song of the Day:

"California Dreamin' - JD Fortune"

I'm in Cal. Dream come true~
*Disneyland music*

Potong stim

._.''

Was playing with hm just now.

He was spiking like crazy, terjadi first blood and all without even knowing how he died.
Lol.
Stupid host.

I was only lagging very very slightly, 0.5 secs maybe?
Playable.
So I (Rikimaru) managed to kill Rexxar with hm's help.
Then Rexxar again with Veno's help.

I tried for my 3rd kill alone.

PUGNA! DIE PUGNA!

I thought it'd be bloody easy thanks to his mere 650+ life.

But nooo, the sucker anticipated my backstab and kept blasting the area over himself.
So I couldn't really go near him, cause that spell HURT. A lot. (My life was no better than his, lol.)

So I counted the timing, and went in for the kill when the spell was in cooldown.
I whacked, he whacked.
...And then he blasted me.

-.-''

I misjudged the cooldown!
Noob!
It was damn fast wei.

(I just checked. It's 5 seconds. NO FAIR!)

I was half-life, so was he.
I immediately silenced him and we had a go at each other.

Whack whack whack.
= =

Both our lives were going down at the same rate.
...
Bear in mind that my Rikimaru had no items except a single RoR. =/
Puggy had Headdress and stuff.

So I quickly blinkstruck the sucker and pulled ahead in terms of damage dealt.
He ran towards my tower, presumably to deny himself.

Both of us exited the cloud of blue smoke where I whacked him once again, before he decrepified me and continued running.

I blinkstruck AGAIN.
Pugna froze while casting his netherblast.

I panicked - whack and try to kill him first, or run and lose my prey?

*trumpets from heaven*

Spectre ulti'd by chance (he was chasing another hero) and I got the last hit!

KILLING SPREE!

The blast exploded all around me - Pugna's final spell - leaving me with 30 life.

I was ready to go: YIPPEE I DID IT WOOHOO! I'M ALIVE!

Then streamyx disconnected.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
DAMN POTONG STIM WEI!

=.=''

Lol, and to think, Hann Meng the lagger, survived.
He told me that the moment I dropped, my teammates started blaming the host.

Apparently, it he 'customed kicked me cause I was killing his friends too much.'

HAHAHA WTF!
XD

But annoyed la.
I was all ready to own with Rikimaru.
They were the kind of people who were too stingy too buy wards some more. =(
It could've been such a fun game - it was such a good start. x.x

Streamyx sucks larrr.


Song of the Day:

"Kinslayer - Nightwish"

Finally got my album today. =D

Whooooooosh!

Yesterday, B, Daniel, Panda and Amber took Fish skating for the first time.
=x

Okla, it was Panda's first time as well and Fish did better than him I must say.
If you can ignore the fact that she fell down not 6 feet from the entrance.

=P

As usual, the lady manning the skate counter had a good laugh at my shoe size.
._.''

But it's ok, I'm pretty much used to it.
To most people, girls cannot have feet above a size 7...because it's unladylike?
Who knows?

Nevermind the fact that I was only one shoe size bigger than Daniel, and I was maybe 2-3 inches taller than him ok. = =

Say, a 5 foot 5 guy with size 8 feet would not be treated all funny.
But when I walk up to the counter - all 5 foot 8 of me - and ask for size 9 shoes, they all go YOU SURE MEH? SERIOUS AH? o_O''

My gosh la, service in Malaysia sucks.
If this were America, they'd probably just hand over the shoes with nothing more than a smile.
If this were America, I'd have sued them for...I dunno, injury to my ego? Haha, anything works.

Anyhow, when I first got onto the ice, I couldn't move.
-.-

I was freaked out about the loss of friction.
The ice was super dry and smooth when we entered - it was about 10.30 am and not more than 20 people were on the rink.

So I just stood there and whined.

"I can't do it! I can't move! Hahahahaha!"

Abigail was like:

"C'mon!"

Then she grabbed my hands and towed me around the rink.
OMG LA!
She skated so fast that I got even more freaked out.

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Lemme skate by myself!"

Then suddenly I could skate by myself already.
= =''

Fear can be a good motivation.
Which is the philosophy I applied to Fish's training.
I brought her to the middle of the rink and left her stranded there.

Muahhaha!

Er, no la.
Abi and I stayed with her, lest she scream bloody murder and have the rink guard's drag her off the ice. =x

I tell you ah, this Fish so dao mei I tell you. (Unlucky.)
I was skating with her, and the only time I tried skating backwards with her following - she stumbles and crashes down on me.

Swt.
My whole butt was wet.

...

Then later, she SOMEHOW managed to fall down while standing upright.
She wasn't even MOVING!

Worse, I was skating towards her quite quickly - I was maybe about 5 feet away when she fell and put her head right into the line of fire.

Zzz, so of course I had to make an emergency brake.
Which failed miserably - I slowed down enough but the speed would still rip her hair off her head - so I did what noobs do the brake completely.

I sat down on the ice.

LOL!

I'm telling you, your butt has more friction than you think.
So once again, I 'fell' because of the unlucky Fish.
Well, better then decapitating/ripping the skin off her face by her hair ala carnival rides gone horribly wrong - then being charged with manslaughter (fishslaughter?)

Blah!
And I can't tell you how many people grabbed on to me for support that day.
Do I look like a lampost to you? = =

Seriously, some guys just skate past, go AHH~, and then grab on the my arm/shoulder/stomach (WTF) and go sorry! Sorry!

After a while I got so fed up of it, whenever someone reached out to grab hold of me, I grabbed them first, steadied them and sped off before they can apologise. -.-''

And there was this guy in a pink-collared shirt who skidded and rammed into me - he fell, I didn't. I was like WOOT MY SENSE OF BALANCE ROCKS!

Then later, he did it again.
I was semi-annoyed/amused and went AIYO YOU AGAIN?

Lol, you shoulda seen his embarassed face as he picked himself up and skated off.
*shakes head*
Little kids.

Anyway, poor Panda still couldn't skate at the end of the day - he somewhat gave up hope after falling repeatedly on his arm and injured his wrist. I saw it, it was all red and slightly swollen. T.T

Anyway, I was being silly and was trying all sorts of tricks Abi showed me.
And I fell almost every single time.
Haha, after a while, the guards stopped trying to pick me up.
Cause I'd just fall down immediately after, and besides, I could pick myself up perfectly fine.

Well, at least I tried right?
And my pants were already all wet thanks to Fishy ._.
So nothing to lose la.

Except when I took a shower yesterday and discovered that my left kneecap was completely purple and yellow.

=.=''

But it was fun!
I wanna go again!
Early in the morning where there are very few people and the ice is actually solid - not slushy and gross.

Plus! The couply lovebirds seem to arrive after lunch.
Meaning no double collisions.

= =

I went back into the rink once, to fetch Amber for Fish.
We were just standing there talking, when this couple skating super fast came towards us.

"Oh crap."

They rammed right into us - a 2 on 2 collision.
Miraculously, none of us fell.
We jsut kinda grabbed on to each other and drifted to a stop.
Thank god, the guy was HUGE.
If he fell on me, I'd die.
No question.

Lol.
That kinda reminded me about The Principle of Conservation of Momentum.
=x
Physics head.

Anyway, I fell down more than 10 times.

The first time I skated, I fell 2 times.
The second time I skated, I fell 6 times.
And now, 10 times!

Do you sense a pattern here?
Next time I skate I'll probably fall a couple dozen times.
^^
Falling is good, that means you're actually trying some new tricks!
=P Unless you're a natural klutz, that is.

Final report:

Fish could skate by herself at the end of the day, albeit wobbling constantly.

*Borat*

Great success!

Thank God she could la.
Everyone had to hold her hand at some point - Me, B, Ber, Daniel.

I asked one of my friends to come, and he said that he couldn't skate.
I told him to wall-cling and slowly he'll get the hang of it.

"No la! You hold my hand and teach me then can! =P"
"Fine~ Don't come then."
"Hahahaha..."

See? If I knew I was gonna have drag someone around the rink with me, might as well call a guy right? XD

Ahahah, I wanna go again!
It's so fun!

Still can't believe we skated from 10.30 to 3 something (with food breaks in between.)
My thighs, butt, and neck are killing me, whereas my calves, knees and left elbow are bruised.
._.'' Worth it?

Yeah!

***

Btw, Fish is so cute!

"Steph! Why cannot lock the locker one?"
"Did you put in the token?"
"No...then how am I going to unlock it?"
"You have to put in the token before you can lock la..."
"But Amber said the token is to unlock the locker..."
"...Then, tell me what the key is for.''
"Eh? Oh...OHYAHOR!"
"..."

*_*'''

With friends like that, how can you not want to go out with them again?
=P

Sorry bout the disc btw, Sui.
x.x I woke up late.
(And still arrived first, lol)


Song of the Day:

"Cupid's Chokehold - Gym Class Heroes"

They were playing this at the rink.
I think I looked a tad crazy gliding around with my skates 4 feet apart and singing this song. Lol.

Scrambled

My sleeping hours are rather off.
It's the holidays after all!

I wake up at 1.30 everyday, and go to sleep when the mosque starts it's daily chant.
Which is around 5 am.

So factoring in my pre-sleep bath, I get into bed around 5.30, which means I have my 8 hours sleep every night - er, day?

Ahaha.

Last night my sis' friend Kishor arrived from NZ to stay until the weekend.
I insisted that he take my room, because the comp was in Den's room, and I'm bound to use it until the wee hours of the morning.

However, when I told him this, he assured me that it was fine~ I'm talking to a person who doesn't sleep either. Den said yala, he's another Balanar - very nocturnal one.

So I was like okay.
They have been warned.

Around 1.30-2 am he was fast asleep.
I think it was the jet lag.

I was torn between going to turn off the lights or leaving it on.
Cause for some light sleepers, like myself, I wake up when the lights are turned off especially when I've just fallen asleep.

So I was like, errrr maybe I'll turn it off after I finish the game I was playing.
Probably fallen into deeper sleep by then.

But oh crap, he woke up and asked whether I could play with the lights off.
So guilty la!

He's our guest and I'm being such an inconvenience. =(
So I was like oh yeah, ok, sorry.

And LOL I played DotA in the dark.
I know some of my friends are puzzled that I refuse the off the lights whenever I DotA - they say they can't play with the lights on at night.

o_O''

But I think I fared quite well.
At first I couldn't type anything when I tried.
I started to panic. What if a hero's missing, and by the time I find the write keys to report, my friend dies already? Aiyo.

But then I was like, 'oh c'mon you nerd, you can DEFINITELY type without looking at the keyboard la!'

So I took a deep breath and started typing.
Woot! Not many typos at all!
The words kinda just flow through your head and out your fingers to form words on the screen.
How cool is that?
It pays to be on the comp for 7 hours a day. =P

Anyway, after I turned off the lights, I decided to finish off that game and let Kishor sleep in peace. You wouldn't believe how bright the screen seems at night when all the other lights are turned off.

My eyes BURNED.

So I told my friend that I didn't want to play already la, I can't see the keyboard lol and my friend keeps waking up. Later he tulan I damn paiseh leh.

LOL.
My brain wasn't functioning properly I think.

Sam was like @@ Who?

My friend is staying over, the comp is in the guest room. = =

(Lol, Den's room became the guest room XD)

OH I thought your boyfriend leh!

...? HAHAHAHAHA NO LA!

Aiyoyo.
Anyway, I found the course I think I want.
FINALLY!

I will blog about it the next post.
Boyboy just called me to fill in a slot for a draft match (?)
Whatever that is.

Whee! More DotA =P


Song of the Day:

"Love Today - Mika"

Lalalala la la, lalalala la la, love love me! Hahaha...

I'm not a boy!

x.x

Yes, I do look a bit like one - lacking the feminine curves, typical long hair and 5 foot 8 to boot.
But c'mon!

More about that later.

Last Saturday, I finally got the answer to something that's been bugging me for a while.
A few years ago, I remember hitting Brandon and making him cry - I can remember the time pretty vividly.

But what I DIDN'T remember was WHY I did it!

o_O''

I never brought it up, cause I thought that he wouldn't remember such a thing, and I might bruise the poor lad's ego if he DID remember.

However, he did me a favour and brought it up himself.
I pretended not to remember, in case it was the wrong situation - I think I've made most of my friends cry more than once before. *covers face with pillow*

"Neh, last time you made me cry!"

"I did?"

"Yes. That time on the balcony remember? Got la!"

"Oh yeah...what did I do again?"

"You whacked me in the face with the clothes hanger. = ="

"HAHAHAHA, I did! I chased you around, lol."

"Haha, yeah."

"Eh? Why did I do it ah?"

"...I was playing with your hair."

OMG HAHAHAHA
Lmao!
Boys beware. =X
Touch me and die.

Kidding.

I was like, 10-years-old at the time and had a major attitude problem.
That has changed.

...I'm 16 now.
XD

Whee, no wonder I'm still single.
I make boys cry, and not in the heartbroken way - more like in the nosebroken way.
Lol.

"So who's your boyfriend ah?"

"Which one? Lemme see..."

"..."

"Kidding la. Don't have! =P"

"Liar."

"..."

"You always typing smses one. Not your boyfriend meh?"

"Aiyo, that one is my friend. Asking to DotA tonight la."

"= = Are you sure there's nothing romantic behind that? Y'know..."

" '...come let's DotA tonight! Want?' WOW damn romantic la! Swt."

"Hahahaha! Ok ok..."

And there's one snag.
People online still don't believe I'm a girl.

Walao la.

Real life also mistaken for a boy.
Online also cannot pass as a girl.

x.x

Sei lor.
Nevermind, I'll go to US and buy skinny jeans and boots and dress up all ladylike.
Happy? *rolls eyeballs*

I'm leaving for America on the 12th - next Wednesday and I'm coming back on the 2nd of January.

Woo, long vacation!

Going to Las Vegas, San Francisco and New York.
NEW YORK!

TIMES SQUARE!
ON NEW YEARS EVE!

HELLO MTV!
MUHAHAHAHAHA!

White Christmas too.
So beautiful...*sigh*

I hope my camera doesn't die.

On another note, lately I've been DotAing with the MoDs.
If you remember, I've blogged about my first clan invite - from the same people.

I still don't wanna join the clan la.
I mean, they're fun and all - a few of them - but I still have a problem with the clan lord.
I just don't like him. = =

Swears like...a drunken sailor?
What was the anology again?
Whatever la.
Swears like an Ah Beng. There you go.

Nevermind. ^^
I don't want a prefix in front of my name.
It's kinda tacky.
But shh, don't tell. =x

Arief and Sherman are a ball of fun, but the clan lord annoys me somewhat.
Ish.

Today he told everyone that he's a boy la! zzzzz.

Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine~
If you think I have more balls than you then I'm ok with it.
Haha.

Maybe it's just the chip on my shoulder - I just don't gel with some people.
But nevermind.
It's irrelevant.
Just a bit annoyed that people doubt my sex.
Lol.

Anyway, I went to school today to pick up the school mag.
First things first, I ADORE the back cover.
Whoever did it, good job wei!

I luff ya. =x

The front is ok, just a bit pixelly.

The description was complete bullshit as usual.
I really laughed out loud while reading it to my sister.

But the scary thing is, I did the EXACT same thing - weave awesome fairytales - when I wrote the cover description the year Ling's design got picked.

SEE?
There's a little bullshit in every one of us!
=P

Not that I got any credit for it.
*pokes Ling in the eye*
Bah!

SECOND THING.

FUCKERS CUT OUT THE SECOND PAGE OF 5K's CLASS PAGES.

This is freaking bullshit la!
Our final year and you screw this and deprive us of the memory of our 5 torturous years in school?

COME ON LA!

And do you know why this happened?
Some USELESS ASSHOLES refused to pay up for the class pages.
FUCK YOU LA.

Our final year and you can't pony up 50 bucks?
I mean yeah, it's a lot of money - my one month's allowance - but you let your CLASSMATES suffer for it.

What the fuck la!
Ling should've have cut out the pictures of those kiamsiap losers from the class pages - obliterate every single gedik smirk of theirs.

In fact, I want to do the same thing.
Only in real life.
Tear off their faces baby! Grr.

Another person at fault is the useless editor or whoever who made the decision to cut out the second page.First page.

Second page.

Third page.

As you can see, the first and second pages are the individual shots, whereas the last page is for the group shots.

If there was enough money for two pages only, (Harhar, whose fault is that may I ask? Bitches.)
any IDIOT would KNOW to take out the last page right?

Frickin noob did the stupidest thing on Earth and took out the second page.
WALAOEH!
No brains one ah?
You take out the second page of pictures then how fair is it to those with their pictures there?

GOT NO MOUTH AND LEGS AH?

CANNOT WALK TO YI LING AND CONSULT HER ABOUT THE PAGE CUT AH?

SO SMART UNTIL YOU CAN DECIDE ON BEHALF OF THE WHOLE CLASS AH?

I want a refund.
=/
And I'm sure the girls with their faces left out want a refund too.
We pay 50 bucks and get left out, and those WHO REFUSED TO PAY GET THEIR PICTURES IN?

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?
You tell me la.

Anyway, after sleeping over this piece of news, the next day I woke up thinking that it's probably a good thing that my pictures not in anyway.

I mean, when I think it over, I don't WANT to be part of this school's history anyway.
=.=

Which also the reason I skipped out on all the club photography sessions for the past few years.

Also the Eng dept group shot last year as well.
I tried skipping this year, but Siew dragged me there I had to layan her, cause I can't snub my friend (and head of dept) right? =.=''

Which is also why the smile on my face was super fake.
Lol.
I laugh whenever I look at it.
How pathetic.
Oh well.

Besides the cover, this year's mag pretty much stinks too.
Better than last year, but still pretty sucky nevertheless.

Now let me end on this very positive note:

GOOD RIDDANCE CBN!
;D


Song of the Day:

"Apologise - OneRepublic feat Timbaland"

Darn you Den and KC.
=.=

How random!

I was studying Bio for tomorrow when I suddenly came across this:


Abigail and I were bored, obviously. =.=

Now you can see what Cik Faridah's favourite two brats talk about when she's talking about the knee-jerk reflex:

Zzz...

Text Book SUX!
4 some reason 2day ur eyes look HUGE like puppy dog eyes

WHAAAT!

Cute wat

anime meh?

Now stick out your tongue and go "HAHAHA"

Omg, HAHAHAHA!
That is SO related to Biology!

No wonder Cik Faridah hates us la.
XD

Btw, my puppy-dog eyes are cute?
Your head la!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

Still cute?
LMAO!

That is called photoshop overkill. @.@
Well actually it was gaussian blur overdose that's all.
And there ya go, nightmares for a week. =x Phwoar!

Either way, for all those who have yet to experience the real thing, REAL puppy-dog eyes look like this:

AWWWWW I LOVE MY TWINKIE PIE!


AWWWWW I LOVE MY BEARYPIE!

XD

Lucky doesn't count as a puppy.

Song of the Day:

"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - Cyndi Lauper"

Boys too, I believe.
Ala, so random.
Bored of Bio d.

After a one-year plus hiatus

After a year, I return to play Neopets once again...and the Neopians have YET to change.

o_o

They still make pretty pointless public announcements.

They are still obnoxious.

Oh come on, this little bastard is just TRYING to pick a fight with me.
Obviously I meant the birthday of the account right?

-slaps stupid little 10-year-old boy-
Freaking smart aleck!

But nevermind! I, your basic kindred spirit will fight all these horrible qualities exhibited by these idiots with a pinch of kindness! =P


Me = dogzwhiz, obviously.
You can tell by the signature. XD

The Secret Laboratory Map is a pretty coveted item.
Once you own all 9 pieces, you unlock the Secret Laboratory Ray and this enables you to zap your pet once a day.
Zapping your pet may change it's stats or more intriguingly, it's appearance. =)

So, yeah, free possible makeover for your pet everyday! =D
I ended up giving away 6 pieces, which burnt a 200, 000 np hole in pocket. x.x

But was it worth it?

*grins*
I guess. XD

However, Neopians are still as paranoid as ever.

OH COME ON! Here I am trying to spread some love around, and THIS is what I get?

You are going to get suspended for this. =(

Oh shuddup you moron!
For one, I am not violating ANY of the stringent rules The Neopets Team (TNT) has imposed upon chatters. Get your rules right.

For another, I'm doing a good thing, right?
There is absolutely no reason for anyone to report my thread.

Unfortunately, the last time I played Neopets - there ARE people who DO report people like me. All because they didn't get any of the free stuff.
Sore losers, no? -.-''

Suckahs.
But whatever.
Smacked Ah Lam right back.


And then I gave her a Secret Laboratory Map piece too. =)
And others scolded her for his 'cheek' - he asked for a piece too, right after saying that.
Hahaha.
And she was pretty shocked that I didn't care if my account got suspended/frozen either.

All I can say is, some people treat their Neopets account as their second life.
If they get frozen/suspended, they throw fits/cry/create threads moaning about their misfortune to gain sympathy.

I know.
Cause I used to be pretty paranoid too. =x
But not THAT severely paranoid la. Cause I know the rules well, and I don't cross any lines.

But whatever, Neopets means almost nothing to me now.
I have found the light.

DOTA!

AHAHAHAHA! =D

XD I know there are lotsa people out there who would kill - ok fine, PAY - to have my account.

Let's see, I have:

- 3 limited edition pets

- 3 painted pets

- Full Secret Lab Map, now worth about 900k

- About 250k in stocks

- 2 million neopoints (np) in cash

- 1885 different items in my Safety Deposit Box - worth tens of thousands of np

- 233 secret avatars (each has to be unlocked in a different way - OMG I have 233, I must have a really bored teenager XD)

- 6 sidebar themes (also have to be unlocked)

- A gallery of ice-themed items worth a couple hundred thousand np

Yes, I have an account people would pay cash to have.
I'm serious, people who pay to upgrade their account actually exist.
Neopets premium - the biggest sham on Earth, charges you every month for measly extra services and boasting rights:

"I'm a Neopets PREMIUM user! Noobs!"

Lol.
And boasting about my account like this would probably elicit cries of:

OMG YOU'RE Soooo GONNA GET HACKED!

Hacked my arse.
As if Neopet security is so easy to get through.
If someone 'hacked' into an account, the user was probably stupid and accidentally let some personal information slip - account password/PIN/email password etc.

Sheesh. These people are so childish.

Speaking of greed: This just in.



Gosh.
I just gave away nearly 10% of my money accumulated in nearly 6 years, and these people don't even have the decency to be polite and ask me on my thread.

Wow.
Mailing me privately and clogging up my inbox is gonna do you many favours. =x
I'm too lazy to respond to neomails personally lah.
Suckah! I ain't giving you anything.

Rule #1 in neopets:
You can buy people over to your side with free stuff.

Rule #2 in neopets:
You can buy attention by offering free stuff.

People siding with you + attention = power

Therefore, Money = power

I have money and with that comes power. =)

I miss playing Neopets.

Now let's see how many hearts I can win over with my 2mill neopoint fortune. ^^

Song of the Day:

I tried to poke fun at him...
And I got owned. =.=

I'm losing my touch.
Must improve my dissing skills.
I shall practise on Yap. ;D

Eh, speaking of dissing...read the end of the post for what happened in school today, haha!

Best of all is this one la!
I came out from the exam hall after Paper 2, and found this lying next to my schoolbag.

Cool leh?
JL's thinking of me~

Until Sui-sui pointed out that JL wrote 'Stephanie' and drew an arrow that points toward 'it.'

ALA!

Omg la Fish, spoil the moment, won't you?

"I found Stephanie helpful so I hope it helps you too! WAHAHAHA! LOL Stephanie is very helpful!"

...

Behind every kind act/message is a subliminal message teling me I suck!

Just pulling your legs.

Ahh...
You guys are...nice people!

...o_O The English geeeek could only come up with that?
Lame! XD

Btw, thanks loads ya JL! ^^

We did a multifrontal assault on Yi Ling today!

Sui was discussing plans after SPM - how we should go stay at Ling's place, then B's, then mine.

She thought Ling's place was near mine, so I was like:

"No la! Her house is in the middle of the jungle la!"

"Ah. Okay..."

"I mean, you can tell where she comes from - just see la!"

*gestures in general direction of the hair*

"...!!!"

"Yeah hor...looks like Tarzan!"

"LOL! Not even Jane? That bad meh? Sampai doesn't even look like a girl?"

"Ahahaha... Eh cannot! ...Tarzan got straight hair la!"

"HAHAHAHA! Fine la, then Jane?"

"Cannot! Jane is very slim..."

"Omg, you guys ah...hahahaha!"

"...then we'll say cannot swing on vine..."

"HAHAHA! B! Don't!"

"...the vine will break!"

And then B and I collapsed laughing. XD
Sui had already moved on to another subject, and Ling was just going:

"Wtf? I don't understand la! Ceh!"

This whole conversation happened in less than 20 seconds.
Poor Ling couldn't even keep up!
OWNED.

Sui, B and I make such a great mental assault team. =)
That's right, gun them down so fast they don't even know what hit them. XD

Ok ok la, I teach you how to DotA, don't angry la okayyyy?


Song of the Day:

"Roll Tide (Crimson Tide) - Nightwish"

Yerrr, they replaced the lead singer!
Bo shiok!
But I still like them anyway.

When you see the title of this song, you think of ________________.

Nearly there!

Bye-bye Physics, hello Chem!

Physics was fine.
I think I did even better than I did in school exams, despite a few blur moments.
Should be A la, if not A1 also guaranteed A2.
If not must send for remarking, haha.

Tomorrow is Chem.
I'm so scared I'll screw this paper up, Chem being the only subject taught in English that I've failed more than once.

Well, the only one I've failed, actually.
= =

Sejarah doesn't count, and my BM is better than my Chem, even.

Sigh.
Hope I can do well, maybe A2 for Chem?
If not B3 also can.
As long as not B4.

After Chem = PARTAY!

Moral doesn't count as a subject.
Bio is next Monday, so I don't really care either, haha.
I wouldn't say A1 for Bio is confirmed, even though I've gotten nothing but A1s throughout the schoolyear.

I still feel surprised that my clueless babbling can turn out to be 70+ %

-.-''
Kind of stupid, really.

That just shows what kind of student I am - knows nada about anything and can only write down bullshit, albeit rather eloquent bullshit. ;D

As long as it works. =/

Ahahaha, later if you see me online, remind me to go and do some Chem ah!
Knowing myself, I'd probably go DotA instead of opening the damned reference book.

Got swapped Lanaya for the second time today.
I was in a rather bleak mood already - Streamyx was giving me hell - lagging like @#$^ and disconnecting randomly.

Especially after I just killed someone la!
When I die, then Streamyx will refuse to dc and spare me my misery by doing so.
Instead, it prolongs my pain by continuing to lag like Pentium 2 trying to run the Sims Vacation.

Anyway, I managed to kill someone with Lanaya!
I'm so shocked. =O

The last time I played Lanaya I had something like 0-4 before I gave up and hid in the forest for the whole game.

=.=
But that time got Juggernaut and Ursa on my lane la.
Forgive me.

Lol, today I actually put my Traps in the right places!
*glee*
2 got triggered in the process of killing my enemy.
Wahahaha, last time my traps tak kena anyone also.
o_o''
Noob!

Hahahaha.
See la, maybe now I'll go and learn how to play TA!

;D

But Streamyx had better buck up.
Stupid tmnet has the worst connection on Earth.
In my opinion. I don't think Jaring was this bad, even.

It has been ok for a while, but today the dreaded Lag Syndrome recurred.
Bigger and badder and meaner than ever.
Zzz.

I'm sure all of you has had problems with this?
If not lagginess, then a temperamental connection that breaks off in the middle of something important.
I can't say a single word of praise about TmNet.
They people ought to be shot.
Over and over and over again.

And then burn their broken bodies on a pyre on Dataran Merdeka.

After that, maybe I can forgive them for failing me at many a crucial moment.




Maybe la.


Song of the Day:

"Speakerphone - Kylie Minogue"

Release this as a single, woman! I command thee.
Did I say that right? Probably not =x

Exhausted la

Today was the worst paper in history. = =

CAN FAIL LA WEI!

...
Okla.

Takkan sampai gagal - passing mark is only 5 marks, but the paper totally sucked.
Add maths is one of my four problem subjects, besides BM and Sejarah which are already over and I didn't have much of a problem with; Chemistry is on Thursday. = =

If you know me pretty well, you'd know that I have this slight thing with Add Maths that makes me suffocated whenever I get stuck.

It's not really nervousness.
It's more like resentment.

Mostly at myself for being so stupid.
If others can do it, why the hell can't I?

Paper one was so-so.
I felt it was fine, until I discovered that I made a number of mistakes that could have been avoided.

The beginning of Paper two was also okay... I finished Questions 1 and 2 pretty fast.

I got stuck at the 3rd question.
I skipped and went to the 4th.
Couldn't do that either.
Skipped to the 5th, and that was when panic started to set in.

My mind just went blank. I KNEW I've read thsis the night before, I MADE SURE that I did, cause I knew it would come out.

But it was as if there was someone telling me that I'm gonna fail anyway, why bother?
Brain freeze.

I saw questions that I knew I could do, if I thought it through long enough, but there just wasn't enough time to dwell on a single question, so I skipped it; maybe I'd come back to it later.

But there wasn't time. -.-''

I have a really bad feeling about this paper.

The only comfort was Suisui coming over when the exam ended proclaiming:

"This is the hardest paper ever! *sigh*"

So ok la.
If SHE finds it hard, Miss-Guaranteed-A1 for Add Maths...I think I should stand a chance la.

This is after taking into account the 50 percent or so of students who suck worse than I do. ._.''And Suisui sounded quite upset over the paper also.

Lol, we had questions that BOTh of us couldn't do - when region R is rotated around the x-axis...I get pi x ZERO cm squared?

*speechless*

Feeling drained of all energy and happiness, I went home, turned on the comp and sat down for a game of DotA to cheer me up.

Mistake.

I played with my friend's clan - something I don't like to do.

I hate playing with clans cause they seem so close-knit and know each other's strength and weaknesses; I only feel like I'm intruding upon some sorta team-spirit vibe. -.-

I randomed Bloodseeker and I thought:

Fine. I've played this guy once before. I think I can manage.

Mistake.

First blood.

Me~ first blood.
Omg la. I've never been first blood for a long time - why now?

After that, memang sudah tiada semangat main.

...

I just wandered around the map disspiritedly, hoping for a noob to come along and feed me.
No chance la.

My team also annoyed me somewhat. We just didn't click.

Twice, in a 2v1 situation, we chased the enemy past two towers - with me tanking, duh.
And my teammate takes the kill.

...fair enough, both of us did roughly equal amounts of damage to the enemy.

BUT.
Bloodseeker should ALWAYS be given the kill* if he were tanking towers all the way for the kill, which I was, so that he can regen.
*see bottom of post for details

But no, he happily killed him and ran off, leaving my red-lifed ass to be pawned by a vengeful enemy.

...

Group fights? Also no go.
I come, venture in to take a few swipes, get owned by Morphling, so I back off.
And that apparently is called 'running away and not helping.'

Sure, I can hang around.
And die.
You like?

More group fights.
I run in, whack one enemy half to death.
I rupture him and move in for the kill - only to have my kill taken by someone else.

Yes, yes...it's a group fight, no one is ks-ing anyone.

But without my kill, I cannot regenerate my hp ok?
They should really try to be more considerate and let BS have his kill in a fight.
So anyway, my target died at another's hands, and I limped away with 45 hp.

...

And then they accuse me of not helping.

Dots.

Anyway, after being reprimanded for the second time of being 'cowardly,' I just lost all interest in playing.

And I started feeding.

I don't know la.
Normally I wouldn't do such a thing, however unintentional, but today was and exception.
I just felt fed up with it all.
._.''

My score sucked: 7 kills + 1 aegis kill - 9 deaths.

I guess everyone was annoyed at me for not owning, being the 'only' late game hero around. Apparently, to them NAIX is 'not really' a late game hero after the remake.

Yes la, he was using the new Naix for the first time, can be forgiven.
Hello? Your Strygwyr also considered first-timer leh.

The only games I've ever played with BS lasted maybe 10 minutes before a remake; the only full game I played with BS was with a feeding Rikimaru on the opposing team, so the ownage then didn't count.

Zz, another ownage hero screwed up.

By the way, the clan leader scolded me for not levelling up Bloodrage, after letting Morphling flee using a TP (Scroll of Town Portal.)

I didn't bother to tell him that Bloodrage doesn't silence item spells.
I just said: "Later."

That's how fed up I was.

Up bloodrage for what? Tell me what use is it going to do against a permastunning Troll, fully Agi-fied Morphling and a Vengeful + Tide combo?

I silence them, no point - they are DPS, increase their bloody damage for what?
I silence myself also no use - I hadn't farmed much damage yet, so there wasn't much to boost anyway, plus the hp loss, however minor, won't help my 1.6k hp at all. = =

Besides, with so many stunners and nukers, I needed the hp to survive before I can even hang around to deal damage.

Hence picking stat points over spell points.
Sigh.

I just feel so tired la.
Don't feel like playing until after Chem paper. =.= See first la, I'll go read a bit of Physics, take a shower, and if some people I can get along with come online, I'll play.
Otherwise, I'm just gonna sit around and mope.

...
Haha, how pathetic does that sound?

*For Ling:

Strygwyr, also known as the Bloodseeker, is an Agility hero.
One of his trademark skills is to regenerate a percentage of the enemy's hp after you kill him.

Let's say 2000 hp Strygwyr is fighting a 4000 hp Centaur Warchief.
Styrgwyr kills Centaur and he will automatically regenerates 40% of Centaur's max hp.

4000 x 40% = 1600hp

So there you go!
You fight until you have about 100 hp left, then you magically regenerate 1600 hp after the kill, leaving you free and nearly full-lifed (1700/2000 hp) to pawn another enemy.

That's normally how it goes with Bloodseeker, but if someone takes the last hit, Strygwyr cannot regenerate his life, and therefore he has to flee with the 100 remaining hp that he has.

Which is exactly what happened just now.
Faham?

***

My aunt just called.

"So how was the exam?"
"...ok la. Very hard."
"Aiyo, why didn't you put in more of your effort? You must put in more effort la!"
"..."

Touche.
*wince*


Song of the Day:

"Heart-Shaped Box - Nirvana"

Grant me some time for self-pity ok? XD
The only time I've felt this drained was after Geog paper during PMR.
Lol, but that was an A.
A2 for Add Maths?
LMAO YEAH RIGHT.

I really deserve a slap

Really, I do.
This morning at 10.30 am:

"Arief! Let's playyy ;D"

Now it is 6 pm and I haven't studied a thing besides the definition of exothermic and endothermic reactions, which I already knew anyway.

._.''

Ok, gotta hit the books.
And you've really gotta hit me.


Song of the Day:

"I Wanna Rock And Roll All Night - Kiss"

And party every day!

This is Malaysia.

What did I expect?

At 8 pm, I told myself:

One game, then I'll go study Chem.
I promise!
Well, one FULL game anyway.

And here I am, at midnight, finishing my first COMPLETE game.

-.-''

So many leavers.

On my team.
On the opposing team.

Overabundance of laggers.
Sore hosts who leave when they die.
Streamyx making me lag out somehow. -.-

Anyway, I've just finished such an intense game I'm still feeling that DotA high. =x
DotA is my drug.

Because this is yet another DotA post, I'm going to make it Yi Ling-friendly again.
=P
So she can learn some basic stuff before I really teach her how to play after SPM.

I was playing Balanar again.

And until I was lvl 16, I still had NOT gotten a single kill.
How pathetic is that? -.-

I died once, instead.
Well, to be fair, I was saving a friend, but failed to escape.
Got stunned by Crixalis, and Techies suicided in my face.

It was partly my fault though, I insisted on taking a solo lane, and I let my solo enemy farm well.

Farm:

Earning gold and exp.

When the first night arrived, I couldn't kill anyone.
-.-

They were very alert and sticked stuck (thanks Den ._.'') together, and the moment I vanished from my lane, they retreated into hiding. It did NOT help that THREE of them were stunners (na, sk, vs.)

One was Techies, which I couldn't go near, as I hadn't upped my Fear yet - he'd just suicide and kill both of us.

Techies:

Hero with a suicide spell. Casting the spell kills himself and gravely damages anyone close to him at the time of the suicide.

Silence:

A spell. When cast, it makes a hero unable to cast any spells for a fixed period of time. Hero can still attack regularly, however.

Fear:


Crippling Fear. One of Balanar's spells.
Silences the enemy and makes the enemy miss on most of his regular attacks.
Works only in the nighttime.

Last hero was Abaddon, who was quite unkillable due to his skills.

= =

So, there you go, I was STARVED.
Starved for cash.
Starved for exp.

It did not help whatsoever that one of my teammates left, and the other was a super feeder + noob + eventual leaver.

Feeder:

Player who is killed frequently without good reason and provides the enemy with exp and gold everytime he is killed by aforementioned enemy. Hence the term 'feeding.'

But anyway!
I farmed neutrals throughout the day, and kept wasting my ulti to save my teammate Razor.
=.=

NA had a jolly good time hunting down my tofu teammates early game.
My remaining two teammates were Razor and Weaver, who are both extrememly fragile throughout the whole game.

Razor

Weaver

Ulti:

Ultimate spell. A hero's signature spell. Usually the most powerful of the four spells, but costs more mana points and has a longer cooldown (can't be used as frequently.)

Tofu:

Fragile/Low-lifed/Has a small hitpoint pool

NA:

Nerubian Assassin, a hero. Known for turning invisible and backstabbing. Has a stun.

So anyway, I kept wasting my ulti to help save Razor from NA - so instead of hunting and killing with my precious nighttime, I was busy saving people's ass.

Sigh.

Balanar's ulti:

Turns day into night for an amount of time so that he can thrive. Night Stalker, remember?

Sien.
Anyway, we resorted to backdooring, but still lost the game.
Hahahaha!

And before you pass judgment, backdooring was allowed in that situation as we were:

- one player short
-it was past 60 minutes already, which are the basic conditions for backdooring.

Backdooring:

Attacking a tower in the enemy's base without any allied creeps/summons present. Under normal circumstances, it is considered highly unethical and a form of cheating. However, this depends on the rules of the individual league/server. The conditions to allow backdooring may vary.

Creeps:

Creeps are units generated every 30 seconds (known as one wave) by each team for each of the three lanes. Creeps meet halfway and fight each other. Heroes kill creeps to gain money and exp.

My teammates were pushing, and I was home because my hp was low.
And out of nowhere, NA came and pushed until all our towers and rax were down.

!!!

So our poor throne was left naked and unprotected.
Thank God I was home.
My teammates just died.
I was the only left alive, and I managed to chase NA away - I almost died as well though.
So gan cheong!

Our poor tree was almost dead!
500+ hp left only!

Normally by this time, most people would be:

Oh God, just let them finish it. We're gonna lose anyway. -.-''

But our host refused to give up.

We can do this! We can win!

So we fought back hard.

Razor defended the naked tree.
Weaver was in charge of backdooring.
I killed anyone who came near our base.

Tower:

Buildings that attack any enemy unit that comes close to it. Can only attack one unit at a time.

Throne:

The Frozen Throne.

The World Tree.
(Ok ok, so they remade the Tree. Just add some leaves, fireflies and lanterns hanging off some branches and it'll look exactly like this.)

The aim of the game is to kill the enemy's throne.
The first team to achieve this wins instantly.
The two thrones are known as the World Tree for the Sentinel team, and the Frozen Throne for the Scourge team.
The throne cannot defend itself, meaning it does not attack. However, it is protected by two towers that must be destroyed before the throne is vulnerable to attack.

Rax:

Barracks. Non-attacking buildings that generate creeps. When destroyed, the enemy creep wave becomes stronger (more hitpoints, and more damage.)

Our Weaver did a good job of backdooring.
He destroyed all the towers and rax of the middle lane until THEIR throne was naked as well.

Neck-and-neck man!

We decided to ALL go together and end the game ASAP.

I reached halfway to the enemy's base when I realised:

"ZZZ! LOA'S IN OUR BASE!"

LOA:


Lord of Avernus, also known as Abaddon, a hero with mainly defensive skills.

Immediately I teleported back and disposed of him.
I can't believe I beat Abaddon.
-.-

Abaddon's ulti:

Makes him invulnerable for 5 seconds.
Meaning I can attack him all I like for 5 seconds, and he won't take ANY damage at ALL.
Meanwhile, he is still attacking me and I DO take damage.

But by this time, out tree had a measly 120 hp left.
= =

In other words, ONE whack from a creep would put it out of it's misery.
SO TENSE MAN!

In the end, my team decided to let Razor defend, and Weaver and I will backdoor and end it.

Weaver said he'll distract the enemy while I finish it.
So fwee!
Balanar sprinted to the enemy's base full of determination to win the game!

...only to be met with a snarling Crixalis and Techies guarding the Throne.

SWT!

I was carrying a gem, and I could see the Throne completely surrounded with bombs the Techies had planted.

...

I had no choice but to retreat.
Sure, Crixalis I could deal with.
Techies? OH PLEASE. My food.

Gem:

Gem of True Sight.
An item to reveal nearby invisible units. Techies' bombs are invisible.
The gem costs 700 gold and drops when the hero carrying it is killed.
Meaning, bye-bye 700 gold when you get careless and die.

However,
Only a ranged hero could take out those bombs.

Ranged:

Attacks from a distance.
Balanar is a melee hero, meaning he attacks directly in front of you.

I could kill Crixalis and Techies, no problem.
But Techies would just blow his bombs up and kill me after that.

Or he could detonate them FIRST and leave me helpless to Crixalis' attack.

I retreated and told Weaver to get his ass here.
Meanwhile, Razor died and left our throne defenseless AGAIN.

Sighing, I teleported back and defended the tree.
Abaddon and NA were busy clearing creeps.
Razor bought out and we slaughtered Abaddon together: we ended up chasing him halfway down the middle lane.

And in this time, NA who had we THOUGHT had fled earlier, turned invisible, calmly walked back into our base and dealt the fatal blow to our poor tree.

...

So anti-climatic can?

I thought I would die defending the throne (or something equally dramatic!)
But instead, NA copied us and backdoored to win.

WHAT LA!

We were all like:

Huh?
Wtf?
LOL HAHAHAHAHA OMG GOOD ONE!

=.='

I guess that was the only way they could win, because by that time, I could solo any hero one on one. I could even take on Abaddon and NA together.

So I guess NA was smart to kill the tree while I was preoccupied with killing someone else.
-.-

But all in all, in was a great game (if you ignored the idiots who left the game.)

My teammates were super fat and were dealing monstrous amounts of damage.
I was running around with 3000+ hp and a Satanic, so I was nearly invincible at this point.
Sigh.

Fat:

Well-fed. Meaning that they have farmed and 'fed' well, and have good items, and a high level.

Satanic:

A satanic item! Muahahaha!
Basically, when activated, this item gievs you bonus damage and bonus lifesteal.

Lifesteal:

A portion of the damage you deal returned to you in the form of hitpoints.
Meaning, you heal as you whack. Works well on heroes who deal a lot of damage very quickly, ie. Balanar =D

Le sigh.
I still think we could have won, if only a little more care was taken to make sure that little sneak didn't walk in our base invisible.
= =

But good game, and that makes me happy!
I ish very content. ^^
