Long Story

A lot has happened since I last posted here. I'll start off with when the new semester started. Classes were in havoc. There were too many students now in the each class due to the change of the ACCA syllabus. The so-called compulsory papers are now to be taken first before the optional papers (For more info, please refer to the ACCA Website) causing a huge inflow of students into the class. In addition to that, there are also alot of students from other colleges that joined Sunway. Not that I am blaming them, but they are one of the causes to the overwhelming number of students, at least 500. The management is also partly to be blamed. Not a good start to this semester. Oh, and all my classes start at 8am. Insane.

There are several good movies that came out recently, most notably Transformers.


The computer graphics that are used in the movie are jaw-dropping. The transformation scene is so smooth. Though the storyline can be abit weak. Come on, Megatron got owned by a small box. The ending of the movie made it seem like there will be a sequel, Starscream taking off to outerspace.


Alot has happened in the homebrew world of PSP too. Dark_AleX, the maker of the infamous OE firmwares had stepped down. Caused lots of commotion in the homebrew PSP community. Recently, there has been a few releases of new custom firmwares by other people. The "Custom Firmware Wars". They are trying to fight to replace Dark_AleX. Interesting to see how they are so devoted to go against Sony. Sony makes new firmwares, somebody cracks them.


What you see above is a limited edition PSP with Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII theme. It comes with the Buster Sword keychain. Only 77,777 units are going to be produced. How I wish I could get my hands on one of those. Theres also going to be a new redesign of the PSP. It is thinner and lighter, thus the name PSP Slim. Has longer battery life too.

I just came back from Malacca midnight yesterday. Went with a group of 9 friends. We had almost the whole week off since our lecturers were sent to Shanghai to run some classes there. It was really fun. We stayed in the A'Famosa Resort. We rented a bungalow there for a night. The bungalow has 4 rooms and a swimming pool, kinda good I say. What we did in Malacca was all spontaneously planned xD There were no fixed plans beforehand. We went to eat the famous Chicken Rice Balls. Doesnt differ much from other chicken rice except that the rice is rolled into balls.

That night, we drank alcohol. I still dont know how to enjoy drinking alcohol. I cant drink alot. Puked all over the floor. Havent vomitted for a very long time, a few years maybe. After vomitting, I felt much better. The vomitting had caused me to suffer from Subconjunctival Hemorrhage. Sounds rather serious but it is not. The blood vessel in my eyes popped and my eyes appear to be bleeding. Its like a bruise just that its in the eye. Its gonna recover in a few days, maybe, or a week. I will post up a picture when I have the chance. Its kinda cool, in a way. Besides the vomitting, the games that we play and we drink if we lose, its kinda fun.

The next day everybody was like so worn out xD We didnt do nothing much except eat (Longkang Noodles, Ayam Percik, Satay Celuk) and walk the Jonker Street. Its alot like a pasar malam. Theres food, theres stuff to buy. That time there was rain on and off. Then just before we left, it poured down heavily. We ran to the car, with newspapers that were given to us by a kind shoplady. The newspapers were kinda useless, but anyways we were soaking wet when we reached the car. The girls had an umbrella, so they should be drier, but still wet. Not long after we left that area the rain starts to slow down LOL. We should have waited xD

Heng Soon, an old friend of mine was here. I couldnt meet up with him earlier because of the Malacca Trip, but I managed to meet up with him yesterday morning before his flight back to Brunay at 3pm. We didnt do nothing much, just talked and went to the arcades, walking around aimlessly in Sunway Pyramid xD I woke up late so he had to wait for awhile, I apologise for that.
