Potential 2nd Job

Since I’ve no clue when I’m gonna start my college life, I went for a job interview at a video game department store in Mahkota Jusco which just located about 2km away from where I live. I seriously have no idea whether or not I should accept this offer for joining their company because; 1. Like I just said, I don’t know when my college life will start, it might be next week, next month or maybe tomorrow, I think they probably will condemn me if I suddenly wanna quit. 2. I kind of fed up with working life :P and 3, not the least, I HATE becoming an early bird! Lazy, you can call me. LOL!

Dead Island

Ever wonder what will happen if you and your family or friends are trapped on an island that supposedly meant for tourism with hungry zombies wander around scavenging for human fresh? Dead Island will fulfill your dangerous, yet, stimulating fantasy.

I’ve read amount of info about this upcoming RPG horror survival game on various sites. It’s said that this game is like a combination of Dead Rising and Left 4 Dead series. There are several interesting elements that attract me to get this game for Xbox 360 console. One of them is the multiplayer cooperative mode where up to 4 players can experience a whole new zombie apocalypse at once. I hope I can play this mode with a friend beside me without online; also, hope we can go wherever we want by separately. In addition, the game is an open world like Grand Theft Auto.

There are 4 playable characters with only 2 of them have been revealed;

Xian Mei, an Asian Chinese girl (never seen an Asian character since ObsCure 2's Mei & June) who works as a receptionist at the Royal Palm Resort. I wonder how is she going to slay zombies with those high heels, lol.

Sam B, a rap artist who takes a trip on the island.

The other 2 are Logan and Purna (I think she’s an African woman). This game might be the first horror game that consisted of international characters, which is good.

The trailer of this game looks quite saddening, but I bet the actual gameplay is nothing like that anyway :/

Gothic LifeStyle

Numerous people went for ice-skating.

Finally I’ve bought myself a nail polish at Sunway Pyramid when I had another outing with Lee Cheng, Jack, his Korean classmate, and Wen Sern. Although the color is not the one I was searching for, but I think dark purple is still compatible with black.

The nail polish itself costs me 53 ringgit as they said “it’s a famous brand with great quality”. Whether it’s true or not, I seriously have no idea and don’t really care much because this is Deric, who never open his eyes when it comes to purchasing.

I didn’t buy the base coat which is very necessary for nail polishing if you want to keep your nail healthy. The price is much shocking than Osama’s death; 500+ ringgit! Like what the hell? 5oo+ ringgit? I’d rather save that for Xbox, lol.

Anyway, I applied it on 3 of my nails. Apparently, my polishing skill turned suck after almost a year didn’t attempt any “beauty” painting. So, I decided to wait ‘till I got a cheaper base coat and nail polish remover (forgot to buy). Before I completely removed the color liquid by scratching out :( I went out for a dinner with my family as today is my mofo brother’s birthday. I dressed like a semi-Gothic style with a coffin bag beside me, and you know what? Everyone is staring at me like some what a freak show, it’s disturbing and uncomfortable. People, did your mother ever taught you staring is rude? :) Had lunch at a small Taiwanese-based-style restaurant in Sunway. That fried chicken can be seen at Sg. Long night market every Tuesday night =.= Well, the rice is nice, though.

Random Travel

Another random outing with Lee Cheng and Wen Sern during this cloudy afternoon. Although I’ve to say that it’s quite pointless, but at least I had a chance to assimilate fresh air considering that I’ve turned moldy and soon to be zombie after staying at home for more than 60 days.

We had a short visitation at Lee Cheng’s college, Taylor, and the college amazed me a lot as it looks like a Botanical Garden with the tranquil lake setting in the middle. Also, there are several department stores can be found somewhere around the building. What surprised me is that the library consisted of 5 freaking floors! I had never seen such a huge library in my whole life! After a short walk, we finally had a drink at Old Town, which is also apart from Taylor.

Haznut Coffee- RM7.50 T.T

We spent some times at Sunway Pyramid before heading back home, this is like the shortest shopping length ever, what a disappointment, lol.

RoadBlock!

I went out for a simple drink with Lee Cheng, Wen Sern and Jun Meng at a mamak store at Mahkota (typical Malaysians isn’t it?). The drink was all about stories telling, like you know, talking about our current life, ditching someone that we hate and… yeah, just like that.

But today’s topic is not about the drink; instead, something quite funny had occurred when we were heading back home at around 1:30 am; a group of police were patrolling around the main entrance of Taman Rakan where Jun Meng and I live. Well, we shouldn’t have to worry about it because we didn’t do anything illegal until we realized that Jun Meng didn’t bring his ID card. Luckily, Lee Cheng managed to make a quick turn where we ended up stuck at the PETRONAS Gas Station along with an African couple parking next to us whom we assumed they probably must be facing the similar fate with us.

Jun Meng made a phone call to his parents so that they could bring his ID card while the rest of us waited patiently. I was goofing around as if the whole situation was just a joke. When everything seemed fine, a police van drove in from where we came from and parked next to us. I actually thought their shift was over and coincidentally came here to buy some snacks, but turned out that they came here on PURPOSE. One of them stepped out and followed by the others with a flashlight in their hand. They kindly asked us to leave the car while another was inspecting Lee Cheng’s car license and questioned him “Still wanna go where in this hour?” I’m sorry, but this is a free country, why must he know our privacy?

Anyway, Jun Meng’s parents arrived few minutes later before the check up ended. Nothing big actually, just kind of funny as you could see how tension Jun Meng was.

Mother's Day

It’s once in a year celebration to all the mothers in the universe. My eldest brother, Daniel, held a minor celebration at a seafood restaurant called “Fei Lou Hai” which just located few miles away from The Mines shopping mall complex. This restaurant might sounds familiar to those long term Cheras residents as it is very famous with crabs and not to mention, the lake view where customers could feel a faint breeze and enjoy their dish simultaneously, though the weather nowadays already scrapped down this benefit. Still, the restaurant is constantly full.

So, yeah, it was there when we had our fine dinner as a family, yet, boring, since none of us actually were there, I mean, technically, we were there, but our hearts, were somewhere else because we didn’t speak a word until we got back home.

Right after a waiter led us to our seats; he immediately served us with soured peanuts and moisture towels (meant for after meal). Classic.

Our first dish was fried rice with some additional spices in it. I don’t know what they called this in English, but it’s tofu with wild mushrooms. Hmm… just like a homemade dish.

Fried buttered squids.

Steamed African fish.

And finally, the infamous crabs with chutney (sweet and hot sauce). The sauce can be too, compounded with baked British bread.

The whole meal cost Daniel a total of RM183 by EXPECTEDLY.

A mother and son were feeding the cat fishes by the lake. A similar scene where you can see in The Mines.

Deric's Phase

Ever since I am officially unemployed, my life has just rotated back to how it was when I was an ordinary student few months back. Now, without any purpose, I constantly throwing my time away by facing the computer for hours even there’s nothing much I can spend with it except for gaming. I find it funny that whenever my internet line is shut down, it seems like there are tons of things awaiting me to be done with internet. And when it’s finally reconnect, I feel blank very abruptly that sometimes I thought to myself “What’s the use of internet anyway?”

Its day 61 since the first day I became mildewed; Supposedly, I probably have own an item that I had desired for a long time by now, an Xbox 360. However, there’s one idiot out there who happen to be my elder brother keeps delaying the time while my money is still currently in his hand, alive or not, only God knows. Thanks to him, he lost my interest for getting the item weeks later; My money is the only thing that i want it back.

Again, its day 61 since the first day I became mildewed; and I never step outside my house for fresh air, not even once excluding the day when I go to church every Saturday. There was one time when Nina invited me for an outing with Harry and Kenneth. Magically, I accepted her offer. Unfortunately, the outing is failed since we couldn’t set a proper date as we have our own personal schedule and house rules. And another time was when Wen Sern asked me out for a movie with Yushen, but my wallet is kind of empty, so I said no despite the fact that I still owe both him and Kah Chin 10 dollars. There’s no way hell I’m gonna follow my so-called brother’s footstep, I’ll return them whenever we can meet up.

So… this is me throughout all these 61 days. Since I always staying at home, of course there's nothing interesting can be shared here...
