infinite justice gundam completed!




took my time to complete this kit...the sculpt is by bee-craft...smaller head+longer limbs(particularly the legs)...a pretty good kit i must say proportion wise...it makes the old justice gundam kit look like crap...

my saving grace after a disgusting week at work

when it rains, it frigging pours

just when i thought i was going to safely pass my 1st anniversary at tos without any major catastrophes, some major shite just had to happen...it's the type when u throw a pile of shite into a ceiling fan that's on and it splatters all over the frigging place...

wawawewa...cant believe i came up with such a great analogy man...cus when you throw shite onto a stationary fan, only the fan gets it....now when you throw shite onto a ceiling fan that's turning....hoho...shite starts flying man...and not only will you have to clean the fan, you have splattered shite all over the place to clean up...

so what was the shite bomb i kenna-ed...a frigging part supposedly repaired in 2004 failed and caused an engine failure...my company is being accused of being the repair shop that last overhauled the parts. there's no concrete evidence as to who actually repaired the part as yet.

so that shite just led on to more shite...being the product engineer i had to be involved in investigating whether our shopfloor is performing certain operations according to tech data...that just dug up even more shite...now my boss is personally auditing my product one on one with me...line by line from the engine manual to the op sketches...an enormous load of shite got unearthed...stuff which i wanted to clear on my own time and thus didnt want to bring up all gets discovered by my boss...

you should have seen that kind of disappointed look my boss was carrying on his face today...although he said "maybe it's not your fault, you weren't given enough training"---i think he only said it once though...after which the tone of his voice i could tell he was saying "knn this kind of thing also dunno? this kind of thing also never go and find out? this kind of thing also do until liddat?"

and of all times it happens at a time when we might be getting our performance review pay increase...knn...

and it's as if i dont have enough daily shite to clear by year end, now i get this kind of nonsense to clean up...wtf man...cleaning somebody's else's leftover shite somemore...i dont see anyone digging up so much shite when there were no engine failures and when the company was making shitloads of money...

so there...so much shite already...and it's only monday...

Zhen Fa seafood restaurant

according to mum, dad has wanted to visit this place for the longest time since his friends brought him there. so we went there for dinner on friday. the place is at marina south and it's $12 per person. you have to queue for your food, you have to collect your share of 2 crabs+1 bowl of prawns, you have to mash up and clean your own crabs...well impt thing to remember is you cannot expect too much when you are paying $12 for a buffet style meal.

anyways the crab was really good...a pity we only had 2...prawns were fresh...char siew, fried chicken wing, satay(u have to queue for this and only 8 sticks were given each time u queue) were good...

this was my share of trash...the baby corn were sourish...eewww

our table of trash...

and this my dear friends is a scallop...still in its shell...this of course is my first encounter with fresh scallops...my encounters with this delicacy is usually when its already in its processed, white, savory, meaty form...

this is what inside the shell...notice the white center...that's the yummy stuff we usually eat...well in this case the stuff that's around it is also edible...
fresh scallops tastes just like seehum...hurhur

mobile phones


above are the 3 mobile phones i have bought since 2000.

i'm a fan of chocolate bar phones...those sliding, clamshell, twisting and what not stuff you find on some other phones are too much for lazy adrian

my first phone--panasonic GD92
it had blue coloured backlit+polyphonic ringtones which was all the rage back then.
i can still remember i signed up with M1 and got the phone at $198. (it was sort of my reward for passing my SOC test during that weekend) awfully expensive for a phone with the specs it had if you compared it with the phones of today, and with line somemore.

it lasted me a good 4+ years and it had this voice recorder which allowed me record the happy tree friends theme to set as sms alert tone (correct me if i'm wrong but most phones during that time could not set special sms alert tones). the phone however couldnt read bloody chinese and it could not delete your smses all at once.

my 2nd phone--sony ericsson J210i
during a time when everybody else are already carrying phones with camera and coloured display, my GD92 decided time and again to give me more and more hang time. so i had to get a replacement and (for some reason) not really gian at phones with "more features", i decided to get a $0 phone.

just so happen M1 was having this promo for J210i and thus i got my "basic" phone. no camera (comes in handy for army camp visits and places where no camera phones are allowed) function. coloured display which cannot be viewed under the sun. got IR. can put wallpaper. wawawewa, what a major upgrade in phone specs compared to the GD92!

my 3rd phone--sony ericsson K550i
with my J210i coming to almost 2 years of service, the charger plug starts getting a bit loose which in turns affects the charging of the phone. i contemplated on getting a new phone and with more spending power, i now wanted a phone with "more features".
having already eyed the k550i, i pampered myself with my first "feature phone" wawawewa
