[Small Feast] Ajisen, and "My Time"
Today, Terrix and me went for Ajisen ramen, and it has given me such an impression, I've created a poem for it, titled: "My Time"
---------------------------------------
My Time
Gone, envious Cash, till thou spent in my face,
Call on the lazy leaden-stepping waitress,
Whose speed is but the heavy Plummets' pace;
And glut thyself with what thy brand devours,
Which is no more than what is false and vain,
And merely mortal dross;
So much is thy noodle,
So little is our appetite.
For when as each thing bad though hast entomb'd,
And last of all, thy greedy self consum'd,
Then long Eternity shall greet our slurp
With an individual burp;
And gloom shall overtake us as a flood,
If every thing that is sincerely good
And perfectly divine,
With takos, and prawns, and sashimi shall never shine
About the supreme Wallet*
Of Him, t'whose happily-making sai alone,
When once our heav'nly-guided soul shall climb,
Then all this earthly grossness quit,
Attir'd with Shits, we shall for ever sit,
Triumphing over Kikuzawa, and Waraku, and waste My Time.
---------------------------------------
Actually, the original poem is titled "On Time" by John Milton. For your information ^_^;;
Basically, to put it simple, "STAY AWAY FROM AJISEN RAMEN! IT SUCKS!".
I do not wish to go into detail, because it'll give me nightmare tonight thinking over it. It just sucks. I hope to go for other better ramen in the future. It's to append over what happen today, best to be described from my poem, "My Time".

[Life] Thoughts on Virginia Tech Massacre and myself
Interestingly, I've never thought of commenting on news at all in my blog, but reading through the news and the killer's written play titled "Richard Mcbeef" and "Mr. Brownstone" (not Mr. Brown...), I thought I'd like to give some comments too...
In my opinion, his head is filled with hatred, frustration, stress, unfairness and definitely discriminent. And yet, deep inside me, I can feel what he feel. Speculations show that he's abused by his stepfather, rejection by his classmates (including bully), and the environmental change (It's USA, what do you expect?) has materialise, metamorphisis into what he is today. I'd like to add that, if I've moved over to USA at an age of 8, most likely, the headline could be me instead.
I confessed, killing has definitely come into my mind during my younger age. The feeling of solitude, helplessness and bully is definitely unbearable. Comparing to him, I'm considered lucky. For I do not have a family shattered as he does, for the difficulties and virtually impossible to obtain handgun(s) here in Singapore (one of those things that I like Singapore about... Can I say about those that I hate? Maybe not...), and the self-consultation skills which I've obtained over these years.
His extreme thoughts have well crossed over the lines already. His desire to be in the midst of hell have made him a solitude man. For me, I'd always prefer to be alone in anyway, lucky for me, there are people who are concern about me, and lend me hands when ever possible. However, for him, Cho, he've already crossed the line of no return. He've already lost the battle of balance between an Angel and a Devil. His usual quiet personality, as proven by his classmates, were broken by his specious thoughts, and by showing his "devil" self to the media, he've lost the battle.
He might have been bullied by his classmates, as he seems quiet and timid. He might have been weak, and constantly seeking for friendship, but failed to do so. But one things that's for sure, he did not seek to strengthen himself, instead, he seeks only hatred as a way to "strengthen" himself. He never managed to get over with the thought of unfairness in this world. And by unfairness, it could have been refering to status, money and even complete family, as was mentioned by him on his video. He could have hated his father, mother, or even sisters for any reason. But definitely, he eventually seeks strength, from guns...
From my point of view, it's a good case study of how a person can actually react, behave and do under desperation from his point of view. Also, to how this person thinks and react, in according to whatever he thinks it's correct. To his speech, he thinks that all rich kids who have almost everything yet unsatisfied deserve to die. That could actually closely match with an example from a fiction, "Death Note", where the main character feel that the world is not judged correctly, and he'll be the judge to kill all the criminal, and what happen if he've the power to do so, just like what we have here...
If I managed to obtain gun 10 years ago, if I've stayed this way 10 years ago, if I've not talk through by one of my teacher, Mr. Ho 10 years ago, I'd have been Cho... I'd really thankful of what I've now. No longer killing the teachers of my primary and secondary school came into my mind anymore, nor the bullies I encountered then too...
I feel that I've grown up (of course, a few years ago since...), I feel that I've control over myself, I feel that I can suppress my own killing instinct to convert it to ability, skills, knowledge, experience. I feel that "THAT" is the true strength, not holding a gun and start shooting people (although I feel that I'm up to that ^_^ I'm a marksman in NS after all, not to mentioned I've live rounds for most of my NS life :P )
Morale of my view and story: The true strength of yours, are the ability to control yourself in any aspect.

[Life] Car underwater;Stay alive? The Mythbusters way! [Encore]
Remember the post I posted early this year, about Mythbusters way of saving life on cars plunging into water?
Well, glad to hear that there's Mythbusters fan like me, who find the show useful and in fact, credited to save lives. Here's an example...
Luckily for her, the water is not deep. However, arming yourselves with a glass breaker in your car proves to be useful in anyway. So get one now!

[Anime] Busou Renkin: What is it?
I came across this while watching Busou Renkin ep 25. And this interesting scene forced me into deep ponder but wondering what is it...
Remind you, the mosaic effect is added in the anime, not by me. So even I have no clue what is it... What could it be...?
Mama's flavour... hmm...

[Life] The aftermath of wisdom tooth? Kikuzawa of course!
The battle of wisdom tooth. The battle which preparation took months, the cost which will only be comparable with 10 to 20 kikuzawa buffet. The excitement of seeing blood... the anguish when you hear "zzz zzzz" from the dentist tools... Where you know you'll arrived at the 18th storey of hell only to be...
Argh that's enough... "Dun think too much and go!", there I go, on 9th March, 2007 to the National Dental Centre for my removal of my wisdom tooth. It's been like almost half a year since I've decided to pluck it. So with $30 in my wallet, I set off on a Hundred dollar trail... (A look to the past)
A few days ago, I asked my colleagues about the experiences of plucking wisdom tooth. And the words that hurts me the most are all the money involved ($3k, $1k, $700+, $500+). "Why I can visualise myself eating grasses after plucking wisdom tooth?", I told myself...
So, with a heavy heart, and the feeling of pain NOT for my mouth, but for my pocket, I disembark upon the great crusade which I've striven for many months.
So the procedure is as follow:
1405: It's my turn. I went in and with the dentist not even considering taking an X-ray for me, I was a little worry.
1407: After some hesitation, I finally got a hold of myself and asked the dentist to pluck the wisdom tooth. He agree and recommend local anesthesia, and I agree.
1410: He poked several places to inject the anesthesia (I knew it, stop reading and get lost, all the hentai yaros. Very dirty minded :/), and you can immediately feel that it's like injecting some nanomachine in your body.
1415: I've no idea why the dentist waited 5 mins for. Well, I'm not one, so I don't know for sure. The nurse like bochap and then walk here and there... The anesthesia on my gum took effect long ago. I can feel the swelling on my gums, and there's a lump which I feel as if I can swollow it. At that time, in my mind, I was thinking, "Oh my god... every jab I took, every cash I lost... pls no more..."
1416(20): Dentist tells me to lie down and took a plier-type of tools and hold on to my wisdom tooth...
1416(30): And it came off. Immediately, I give a thumb-up hand-sign to the dentist. Then the nurse happy-go-lucky took the tooth, put in a bag (without washing the tooth), and tell me "This is your souvenir".
To be frank, it was a natural respond for me to show a thumb-up sign. Actually, what I wish to show is this...
1419: After settling the bill of $32 (gnahahaha XD), I took a cab to my working place to work despite a day MC, how silly of me ^_^;;
And of course, the "souvenir" is added to my collection.
Some people said that for the next few days I should have a hard time eating. With a lump on my cheek, even swollowing is a problem.
What's the different for me, with the dentist NOT even prescribe me a painkiller? I ate sushi, Carl's junior, etc etc... LOL! Erm... of course, thefatscholesterol are the focus here, not the teeth... Hmph... let's be good and don't side track the topic, shall we? ^_^;;
The grand finale is still, the Kikuzawa visit during 17th of March, that's 1 week after the plucking of my wisdom tooth. It's to celebrate me surviving the wisdom tooth plucking, the POP of the Field Defense Squadron, or FDS training for Terrix, which in turn become Feminine Dopey Squadron (Also FDS), and the near-to-ORD Lumiere, finally graduate from that Space PortAir Base...
Days before we went, I called and booked for the secret room(unlocked with Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Select, Start, Select+B(hold))
We arrived, entered, and sit on the floor like a japanese, so we thought. In the end, we created our own culture, and thought it might be good to share during culture exchange program in the future.
Then the Itamae gave us sashimi for 4.
Of course, eating in Kikuzawa already make me go cloud 9, with that, my excitement level is full 10/10. Until this came...
It's inclusive in the 1st 2 plates of sushi served to us...
Occasionally he also served us misc stuff. Don't ask me what it is... just follow Lumiere's word, "Shoot Eat first, make friends find out later"
Then after that Kikuzawa passed us this... Immediately we went... "Wtf..."
Terrix immediately go "Walao!", I go "...", Lumiere go "Erm...", then Mokona go "ahhhh puuuu".
Nevertheless, we still need to clear it up before the next serving come... Suddenly...
I hate this dish seriously, for no reasons. Maybe it resembles korean cusine alot?
A while later...

It comes with a 30 days warrenty, claim right from the Paper company! Yes, that's right! You can claim straight from the paper company and WE HELD NO RESPONSIBILITY! It's shoo shimple and shoo ushful, you just can't take your eyes off!
Call now, @ +65 urstupid (+65 87788743), +65 urstupid! While stocks last!

Back to the topic, after the "WTF" serving of sushi, we decided to have a revenge. By ordering...
Before you know it, double-hit combo...
Before we go, we finished off with a fatality...
I'd say this is the best feast so far, considering it's been like a year since I last visit Kikuzawa. And to say, his business isn't as good as last time, but it's not as bad, considering I've been tricked to see someone's butt... (hor, Mokona Apapa? :/ )
We've accomplished enjoying our feast, discussing on future Japan trip, some "secret projects", and of course, the best accomplishment I believe is a picture taken by Lumierehimselfherself. It's a picture full of compassionate, and it literally lits me up with KWS (Kikuzawa Withdrawal Symdrome) for days!
Thumbs up for this picture!
PS: It's been a while since I update my blog so I thought it should be a little bigger this time round. ^_^;;

Even wonder what did the chef do with the waitress during non-business times? *roll eyes*
We arrived, entered, and sit on the floor like a japanese, so we thought. In the end, we created our own culture, and thought it might be good to share during culture exchange program in the future.
During Osaka exchange program, one of the Osaka host hosted for us, saw this and went "Nande ane?!"
Then the Itamae gave us sashimi for 4.
10 sec after it was set on the table
Of course, eating in Kikuzawa already make me go cloud 9, with that, my excitement level is full 10/10. Until this came...
I virtually nose bleeded, Karin-style...
It's inclusive in the 1st 2 plates of sushi served to us...
Pay close attention to the Shake at the left (HIGH QUALITY), the sea-urchin (HIGH QUALITY ONLY TOO), and most of all... the one on the right, BBQed on the spot :O )
5 sec after it was placed on the table, Ikura is simply irresistable!
Occasionally he also served us misc stuff. Don't ask me what it is... just follow Lumiere's word, "
On the left, is Shake in Ponzu sauce, an excellant appetizer
Chawanmushi, Kikuzawa style. With mushroom and Uzumaki Naruto. There's a "rasengan" hidden below too
Then after that Kikuzawa passed us this... Immediately we went... "Wtf..."
A strategy to make us full...
Terrix immediately go "Walao!", I go "...", Lumiere go "Erm...", then Mokona go "ahhhh puuuu".
Nevertheless, we still need to clear it up before the next serving come... Suddenly...
I went "OMG!" and "shared" most of the things with the others, leaving only the potato
I hate this dish seriously, for no reasons. Maybe it resembles korean cusine alot?
A while later...
Me: Erm, what is this?
Lumiere: Just eat
Me: Erm... ok :3

[Anime] 暁の車 (Akatsuki No Kuruma)
An introduction to my favourite song from my favourite composer, Akatsuki No Kuruma, by Fiction Junction Featuring Yuuka. This song, most noticible from the anime, Gundam Seed, is an insert from ep 27 (?) and 40. I love it the moment I hear it, thanks to understanding jap a little, I came to love the lyrics. I've been looking at versions after versions of translations of the song, and I can tell you, I kinda sick of it. But not till I watched this video. It has chinese translation to it and it's beautiful...
Enjoy, Akatsuki No Kuruma...
Japanese
Chinese(TOUGH time finding unknown words ^_^;;)
English (By me, base on the chinese lyrics)
-----------------------------
風さそう木陰に俯せて泣いてる
見も知らぬ私を私が見ていた
逝く人の調べを奏でるギターラ
来ぬ人の嘆きに星は落ちて
行かないで、どんなに叫んでも
オレンジの花びら静かに揺れるだけ
やわらかな額に残された
手のひらの記憶遥か
とこしえのさよならつま弾く
優しい手にすがる子供の心を
燃えさかる車輪は振り払い進む
逝く人の嘆きを奏でてギターラ
胸の糸激しく掻き鳴らして
悲しみに染まらない白さで
オレンジの花びら揺れてた夏の影に
やわらかな額を失くしても
赤く染めた砂遥か越えて行く
さよならのリズム
思い出を焼き尽くして進む大地に
懐かしく芽吹いて行くものがあるの
暁の車を見送って
オレンジの花びら揺れてる今も何処か
いつか見た安らかな夜明けを
もう一度手にするまで
消さないで灯火
車輪は廻るよ
-----------------------------
微风拂过的树荫之下 掩面哭泣的女子
默默望着 那个累不相识的自己
吉他为将逝之人奏响送曲
为不归之人叹息 流星陨落天际
[不要离我而去] 声嘶力竭地呼喊
也只换来橙黄花瓣静静摇曳
残留在我稚嫩的脸庞上
你掌心的余温渐渐远去
只剩指尖弹奏出的永恒离别
挥开痴缍在温柔臂腕上的稚子之心
炎热的车轮呼啸着继续前行
为将逝之人叹息 再度奏响的吉他
拨弄着心弦 久久不能平静
未被哀伤沾染哀的白洁之上
那片摇曳着橙黄花瓣的夏日之影
即使稚嫩的脸庞不再
跨越广阔炙红的沙滩而来
那是离别的旋律
燃尽一切回忆 走在大地之上
令人怀念的往昔 正绽放新芽
目送拂晓的列车
橙黄花瓣此时仍在某处摇曳
曾几何时见过的样和黎明
将它再次找到之前
请不要熄灭灯火
车轮回转 生生不息
-----------------------------
The gentle winds concealed a tearful lady in the shadow of the tree
Calmly looking at her unfamiliar self
Playing the guitar for the departing one
Heave a sigh over him, the star falls off the sky
"Do not leave me", screamed as loud as she could
Only the orange petals waver
Leaving behind on her soft face
The warmness of his palms gradually faded
Leaving behind a resonating tune plucked by his fingers
Relief the compassion like a child from the gentle hands
Burning wheels accompanied the continuous journey
The guitar tune, grieving for the departing one
Relentlessly disrupting one's string in the heart
A pure white heart, which have never been tainted by sorrow
Like orange petals waver over the shadow of summer
Like a kind, vanishing face
Overcoming the vast red desert
Listened to the rhythm of departure
Recalling everything while walking on this land
Memories matured, like plant sprouting new lives
Sending of the dawn's carriage
The orange petals still waver somewhere
A Nostalgic twilight
Before it could be found again
Please do not put out the lamp
The wheels turn, it'll always be
-----------------------------
PS: My gaming nick is named "KamiKaze" cause of this song. It actually sounds like a kamikaze's wife (daughter) leaving to die. To be frank, I hate japanese who thinks they are right for WW2, and saying things like "This is war, people dies right?" (source from CNA) Eat shit will ya! I learn japanese for peace, not for war. I respect Kamikaze for their love of their country and to die for it, not for the sake of killing others in war.
Nevertheless, this is still my favourite anime song.

悲しみに染まらない白さで
オレンジの花びら揺れてた夏の影に
やわらかな額を失くしても
赤く染めた砂遥か越えて行く
さよならのリズム
思い出を焼き尽くして進む大地に
懐かしく芽吹いて行くものがあるの
暁の車を見送って
オレンジの花びら揺れてる今も何処か
いつか見た安らかな夜明けを
もう一度手にするまで
消さないで灯火
車輪は廻るよ
-----------------------------
微风拂过的树荫之下 掩面哭泣的女子
默默望着 那个累不相识的自己
吉他为将逝之人奏响送曲
为不归之人叹息 流星陨落天际
[不要离我而去] 声嘶力竭地呼喊
也只换来橙黄花瓣静静摇曳
残留在我稚嫩的脸庞上
你掌心的余温渐渐远去
只剩指尖弹奏出的永恒离别
挥开痴缍在温柔臂腕上的稚子之心
炎热的车轮呼啸着继续前行
为将逝之人叹息 再度奏响的吉他
拨弄着心弦 久久不能平静
未被哀伤沾染哀的白洁之上
那片摇曳着橙黄花瓣的夏日之影
即使稚嫩的脸庞不再
跨越广阔炙红的沙滩而来
那是离别的旋律
燃尽一切回忆 走在大地之上
令人怀念的往昔 正绽放新芽
目送拂晓的列车
橙黄花瓣此时仍在某处摇曳
曾几何时见过的样和黎明
将它再次找到之前
请不要熄灭灯火
车轮回转 生生不息
-----------------------------
The gentle winds concealed a tearful lady in the shadow of the tree
Calmly looking at her unfamiliar self
Playing the guitar for the departing one
Heave a sigh over him, the star falls off the sky
"Do not leave me", screamed as loud as she could
Only the orange petals waver
Leaving behind on her soft face
The warmness of his palms gradually faded
Leaving behind a resonating tune plucked by his fingers
Relief the compassion like a child from the gentle hands
Burning wheels accompanied the continuous journey
The guitar tune, grieving for the departing one
Relentlessly disrupting one's string in the heart
A pure white heart, which have never been tainted by sorrow
Like orange petals waver over the shadow of summer
Like a kind, vanishing face
Overcoming the vast red desert
Listened to the rhythm of departure
Recalling everything while walking on this land
Memories matured, like plant sprouting new lives
Sending of the dawn's carriage
The orange petals still waver somewhere
A Nostalgic twilight
Before it could be found again
Please do not put out the lamp
The wheels turn, it'll always be

PS: My gaming nick is named "KamiKaze" cause of this song. It actually sounds like a kamikaze's wife (daughter) leaving to die. To be frank, I hate japanese who thinks they are right for WW2, and saying things like "This is war, people dies right?" (source from CNA) Eat shit will ya! I learn japanese for peace, not for war. I respect Kamikaze for their love of their country and to die for it, not for the sake of killing others in war.
Nevertheless, this is still my favourite anime song.

[Life] Last half of my "wisdom"
Finally, I'm plucking my wisdom tooth tomorrow. I've delayed for like almost 9 months to remove this bugger, not till the good news about it growing at the right path, did I push back to 9th March.
I've my "Last dinner" just now, which I'll have my "Last breakfast" and "Last lunch" tomorrow. To think of it, there are 2 things which actually hurts me the most, probably more than the pain itself from wisdom tooth.

- The $$ involved. I heard that it cost around $200++ to pluck one. It makes me shoo guilty that why didn't I pluck it during NS? Sigh, all for the sake of duty...
- The pushback of the "Kikuzawa" feast! Waited half a year for the grand feast and it's pushed back because of it! Argh!
The music from this video, "Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu" clearly shows what's in my mind now, total chaos...
Well, my sis brought her camera to USA, and I do not have 1 at the moment, so this "wonderful" moment will not be caught on the camera. I also probably couldn't make a "before-and-after" comparison of my lovely cheek. But nevertheless, I hope I survive tomorrow T_T
健闘を祈る, ポール 神 よ！

[Life] Akihabara! One of the "target"...
As I happen to surf YouTube again, I saw this video about Akihabara, read at wikipedia about it, I'm lazy to link it -_-
What amused me is not their size, not their product, but their way of changing the name to "Akiba" and associate the style as "Akiba-kei".
Lol, I thought one day when I'm in Akihabara, I'll go like this...
(Saw a Singh on the street): Akibabuseng!
(Someone selling banana split: Akibanana-piak!
(Gang fight): Akibalanto!
(Otakus jumping around, holding the latest doujins): akibaboons -_-;;

[Life] Car underwater;Stay alive? The Mythbusters way!
I'm a firm believer of thesis involving in Many-Worlds Interpretation. I've always believe in "We could have..." and "What if...". Therefore, I believe that this post will benefit me, and hopefully save many more lives for those who read it.
I'm always a Mythbuster fans ever since I came across it about a year ago. Read about it here. Ever imagine an SBS bus you're on, driving on the road, over that bridge only to find its way down to a longkang full of water? How do you survive?
On the latest episode, they explored methods of escaping from a car, if it happen to find its way into the water. And shockingly, many results I've thought to work, actually don't!
And even more, they shown how important an emergency glass breaking hammer (locate nearly in every SBS bus) is during those emergency situations. Here's what I come up with...
1) Keep calm, save up oxygen. Saving those seconds could mean life and death.
2) Open up your car windows WIDE OPEN IMMEDIATELY before water level reaches your window.
2) Try to open the door before the water level reaches too high. It's hard if you didn't open your window.
3) If the door won't budge, break any glasses immediately(most effective using the hammer I mentioned). Any glass you broke, serve a purpose on your survival, the science way (to find out, watch Mythbusters then ^_^)
4) (Unclear)Last method of survival, if your car fills up water, is to wait for the pressure inside the car to equalize with the outside. That way you'll be able to open the door. (by then it might be too late)
Hopefully this post could be treated seriously. I know I am ^_^ But best of all, never drive your car into the water. Come on, cars arn't boats. (even though I hate the DuckTours ever since it was introduced :P)

[Life]My brother-in-Law "TODAY"
I don't read newspaper, I prefer online news. I nearly missed it until my dad brought a page over and asked me to read it.
And there it was...
To think I hate my mum's cooking... lol...
Nevertheless, I'd like to congratulate my brother-in-law, whom appeared in this article on TODAY newspaper, 24th January 2007, pg 42.
Hope to try out your dishes someday in the future, something which I've never done so...
And there it was...
The champion of comfort food!
