Went cycling with Jun Le. This time round, it will be towards Bishan Park. Rest at Mayflower Hawker Centre after cycling around Bishan Park. So, I will cycle past KBCC which I used to go with Jenny a few times to observe the Taiko Dojo team practicing for DrumzOut.
After resting, we cycled towards Lower Pierce Reservoir for another rest. See the greeneries. xD
Finally, cycle back home. This route has a lot of gentle up-slope. Cycle home using YCK Road is the best... downhill. Shiok.

Due to unforseen circumstances on 25 July 2009, this is will be the day instead. First stop, headed to SP eat Chicken Rice. Have to look for seat since I arrived earlier than Jenny. Wth lar, 11.30am... the Foodcourt6 is bloody crowded. Hell lots of different during my Year1 & Year2. -.-" By the time she arrived, Chicken Rice stall bo lang order. Extra soup... hoho.
Proceed to Iluma Bugis for Taiko12. I did not go Arcadia for about 1 week, and I saw quite a number of huge changes. Some machines had moved to the 7th floor, while the 5th floor... got 4 new Jubeat machines. Taiko12 wise... looks like we going to hook on "Rotter Tarmination", at least in Muzu (coded and non-coded). So Oni mode... sure GG. How GG? See the video below:
Now for 北埼玉2000, which I always fail in Muzu. Dunno is heng or what. Passed by a bar.
Left Arcadia at 5pm. Wth, outside raining heavily. 死 Hayate... bo help. *joking* Instead of taking MRT from Bugis, we took a bus to Lavender and loop back to Boon Lay. At least, this path... won't kena much rain. If we cross the road, when we step into Bugis Junction, sure wet as though we just bathed.
Next visit to Arcadia? No idea yet.
What we left with? Double drum record by Jenny & I at 1 of the Taiko12 machines. Rank 12 for the time being.
This chalet is held from 24 to 26 July 2009 at Downtown East (Pasir Ris). Due to unforseen circumstances, trip to Iluma Bugis is cancelled. So, buay sai play Taiko12 with Jenny. (Because suppose to knock off at 3pm, then somehow extend until... might as well go next time.)
In the end, I thought of playing Taiko11 at DTE ZoneX. Space so limited lar. After so long, failed Seasons of Asia (Oni). T.T
Then go back chalet, help out some of the BBQ stuff. Eat, play, talk, etc etc etc. Until 5am, I took a short sleep... till 5.30am. Continue chat, until 7.30am... sleep again. Then I buay tahan liao, go toilet and out of the room at 8.30am, because the room is very cold. >_<"
Xue Ling was already outside, then followed by me and Jian Zhou. Soon after, more people woke up liao since the checkout time is 10.30am. =.= Breakfast before going home. And it seems that I'm the only one take bus home. That's my nearest route... no choice. Tired also.
Now for the pictures. 2 pictures taken using my phone, and the other 2 from Raina's facebook. ^o^
23 July 2009 Delivery summary Just to bring the machine from Pioneer Hub to AMK.

This is the best part. I was given Contractor Pass. Entering the Cargo Lift, how come I can't press anything sia. Then suddenly the lift goes up itself. I took the Passenger Lift after the Cargo Lift stops. While going down, I got this feeling that this pass need to scan on a device in the lift in order to operate. No effect after scanning sia. Took the Passenger Lift down to the basement instead. When I reached the basement, the guard told me... need to scan before pressing Level buttons. I was like huh? Until, I realised... I scanned the wrong device! Tsk.
Lunch summary Steamed Chicken Rice at AMK Blk 527. How am I suppose to tell which Steamed Chicken is the best between AMK Blk 527 and Yishun Blk 925? Both of them taste the best, IMO.
Fridays Jurong West summary Due to time constraint, no visit her. >_<"
Due to bad weather, it has been cancelled. Now rotting at home, doing some computer scannings for Virus & Spyware. From 7.45am to around 12.30pm... wow, very long sia. During this period, I was using the other computer.
zzz sia, play Restaurant City until sian because of the laggy computer. -.-" Everytime I switch tabs within Internet Explorer, sure hang. At least, the worse is over. Now I'm back to my own computer. ^^
Back to Facebook again. Wakakaka! =DDD Restaurant City. While surfing my Street Restaurant, I am greeted by rubbish at this restaurant as shown below:
20 July 2009 Sotong Jenny, and the Sotong Me. Maybe we kena sotong virus liao... blur blur de. Hahas. =X
She was asking what day is today (20 July 2009). She was looking for her handphone where it is just placed beside her small bag. I was looking for the movie tickets which I put in my bag instead of wallet. I thought she start work at 4pm today (20 July 2009) instead of 5pm.
Her turn to joke me liao, when we were inside the lift. "If you never bring movie tickets, hoho... GG-ed!" My reply... "I go back Yishun and come back, need about 2 hours. By the time I arrive, no need watch liao. We waste $7.50 each."
When we arrived JP, it was still early. Thought can play a round of Taiko, but the device failed us to accept credits. Bobian lor, go catch movie after her 1 round of Jubeat.
So, the movie is "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". It is revealed that Snape is the half-blood prince and the creator of spell. The movie ended with the fake Horcrux which Harry had. Inside the fake Horcrus, it contains a message from "R.A.B.". Partial source from Wikipedia
Dumbledore sends Harry to fetch Snape for help, but Draco appears as he is leaving forcing Harry to hide and observe. Draco attempts to kill Dumbledore; however, as Dumbledore expected based on the earlier assassination attempts, Draco cannot follow through. Bellatrix and other Death Eaters, invading the school through the repaired Vanishing Cabinet, arrive and attempt to support Draco. Snape also arrives, motioning Harry to stay hidden, and joins the Death Eaters. Snape then casts the spell Avada Kedavra on Dumbledore, killing him and knocking his body over the side of the tower. Snape, Draco, and the other Death Eaters depart the school, Bellatrix casting the Dark Mark over the school, destroying the Great Hall and setting fire to Hagrid's hut in glee. Harry tries to stop them with the Sectumsempra spell, but Snape deflects it and stuns him. As Snape departs, he reveals that he is the Half-Blood Prince and the creator of the spell.
The staff and students mourn Dumbledore's death. Harry is comforted by Ginny, but refused to talk further of the issue with Professor McGonagall when she asks. Later, Harry reveals to Ron and Hermione that the Horcrux they got was a fake, containing a message from an "R.A.B." that stated he had already taken it, but is also seeking to end Voldemort's life. Harry tells his friends that he does not plan to return next year, instead seeking out R.A.B. and the other Horcruxes so that he may put an end to Voldemort; Ron and Hermione remind Harry that they are his friends and that they don't plan to let him try to get the Horcruxes alone and will help alongside him in his goal. The film ends with Harry, Hermione, and Ron looking across from the castle tower to the distant landscape.
So the 7th part of this movie... probably not so soon release ba?
And btw, there was a kid/baby making noises. -.-" After movie... chiong toilet. Sotong Jenny, she almost made her wrong turn. Bypass Subway, she disturb her collegues. To the Arcade, Taiko can play. But 2nd round, can't tap again. We fix the problem ourselves, a temporary solution anyway... cuz the same problem occured again. Jubeat "Bass 2 Bass" Basic... 1st attempt is a fail for me, but not 2nd attempt. Reason being, I noted of the pattern mah. lols. I my me mine just passed with 1 attempt. These 2 songs, if bo add bonus, I sure fail. -.-"
Time for her to go work. I went to toilet and come back. Diao, never see me sia. Busy eating wor. =P Last Friday (17 July 2009), busy serving customers. 2 Sundays ago (12 July 2009), she tio stunned upon seeing me so early arrive.
Home sweet home after this.
21 July 2009 Here comes another sotong. This time round, it is me. There may be Delivery on this Thursday or Friday. And today is Tuesday. Supposed to cycle on Thursday. To prevent clash of schedule, I SMS-ed Jun Le that we cycle on Tuesday or Wednesday or both also can instead. He replied me... wah, so on ah? Then I recall a bit, ya hor... I thought yesterday is Sunday b'cuz all the while I go JP find Jenny on Sundays mah. And somemore, yesterday met her. Made a quick reply back. Cycle on Wednesday instead. Hahas...
Accompany her to JP. At the same time, buy movie tickets for 20 July 2009. On the way from bus interchange to JP, Yong Zhen saw me with Jenny. Ho seh, siao liao. Upcoming class chalet sure got craps to talk liao. Anyway, he was with Raina.
Then I go play 1 round Taiko. Got 1 person, play 1 song... jiu zhao liao. So I play the last 2 songs... for free lor. Haha! Tried 夏祭り (Oni) as last song... failed. Then nvm liao, I go tap my own credit. 1st song... aiya, play risk. Select Hana (Oni 2x speed). Passed wor? Hmmm... maybe stable liao.
Blue Route 2a: JP/Boon Lay - Khatib (Via Jurong East) Blue Route 2b: Khatib - House 1
Home sweet home, preparing for Round 2 outing.
Purple Route 1a: House 1 - Khatib Purple Route 1b: Khatib - Toa Payoh Purple Route 1c: Toa Payoh - Turf City
Just now, I took shuttle bus from Turf City to Clementi. Now I took shuttle bus from Toa Payoh to Turf City. Huh? Turf City again? Anyway, steamboat with guildmates lor. Then they so late arrive. Only Victor & Peter arrived.
Oh ya, Singapore very small. Meet tio ex-allymate. Existent92 aka cc aka ccPLS =DDDDD
Purple Route 2a: Turf City - Newton
Steamboat until last shuttle bus also zhao liao. Sit guildmate's car, to the main road. Then I took a random bus which can stop at any MRT stations. Bus 66 arrived. This bus captain very kind sia, probably the best I ever encountered. My 1st time talking to Bus Captain? LOL! SBS8487C, ~11.17pm upon arrival at the bus stop near Newton MRT. Ya, it is quite near. Unfortunately, it is blocked by a Flyover... thus you cannot see until you cross the road.
Purple Route 2b: Newton - Khatib (Loop at Marina Bay)
Tired lar. I purposely took a train back home, looping at Marina Bay. Guess what? While the train loops back towards Jurong East, the station announced that this is the last train. lol? "The last train to Jurong East via Woodlands is at Platform A." In fact, after this last train, the next train will terminate at Kranji. Then I recalled an incident about 3 weeks ago. Chiong last bus with Gias & Jenny.
Purple Route 2c: Khatib - House 1
What else I can say? On comp, login Facebook & Maple awhile. Then sleep.
Right now... preparing to go out soon. I mentioned about buying movie tickets for 20 July 2009. So yea...
** Jer was there as well. ** Purchased 6 credits, only used 4 of it.
AMK Hub ZoneX Jubeat tourament. Aparently, not many people participated. Other than that, I'm wondering why is it so crowded.
Taiko. A kid plays Muzu mode. Wow? ^o^ Before that, kinda distracted. Choose wrong mode for my 1st song. End up, failed by 1 bar. No revival round for 2x Speed Oni sia?
** Taiko11 Asian machine at ZoneX AMK Hub has moved to the back, near Daytona USA. ** The small piece of paper (contains Taiko forum URL) being pasted last time is now gone.
Parents listen to 4D result, asking me to wait awhile... ok, I'm fine with it. I'm going to complete a Party Quest soon, asking them to wait awhile, they start #*&#&$.
(Click to view full size image) Image not drawn to scale. This is the route taken.
Stop 1 Meet up Jun Le, cycle pass Yishun Secondary... the school I used to study at with him. Arrived Chong Pang, eat lunch. Then set off towards Woodlands. Cycle past the Sembawang Hotspring... the only hotspring available in Singapore mainland. Then along the 2 long stretch of roads - Woodlands Ave 12 & 1. I wonder how many Primary & Secondary Schools we cycled pass.
Stop 2 Before heading Woodlands Checkpoint, we cycle up to a hill. Tiring sia, end up push bicycle up. All the tiredness, also worth it lar. Can see something from the top.
Bird's eye view from the top of Woodlands Town Park East
(Click to view full size image) Supporters of "Friends" from 20th Century Boys?
Stop 3 Then we cycle down towards Woodlands Checkpoint. Actually somewhere nearby only lar. There is a Hawker Centre, so we went for a short break. Sibeh song sia, cycle downhill.
Stop 4 This is going to be a long ride. Admiralty Road, Admiralty Road West, Admiralty Road East. Along the way, we saw 2 road names... never see before de.
(Click to view full size image) The place where the King & Queen used to live at?
We continue cycle down. Song sia, down = fast. But hor, almost injure my hand sia. I almost lost control totally. Lucky, nothing happen. Cycle along Simpang Kiri Park Connector. We made another stop at a coffee shop, located at Canberra Link/Yishun Ave 2/Yishun Industrial Park A road junction. Again, short break.
Stop 5 Final break at Northpoint (NP1/NP2). Finally, the 3rd Level can walk through NP1 & NP2 liao. After that, reach home... already 5.30pm liao. I felt that my hands kena sun-burnt. =.=

This is my first time doing Defragment of my computer. Use 5 years, dunno got such useful tool to improve computer's performance. The whole process took me 2.5 hours. Still ok lar, even anti-virus scanner also took me around this amount of time.
Hell lots of difference, according from the picture below:
Went out with Victor, ComeHereHeal (Khai Keat [KK]) and a very shy guy zSoulBlade (WL). I arrived at 11.45am, so I ate at Subway JP first. Jenny was sort of... surprised, because I never arrived that early before. Nvm, her "case", settle after my so-called Private Guild meeting. So her scheduled knock-off timing is 4pm. Of course, I will not be arriving to wait for her... zhun zhun 4pm lar. lol~
Offically met up with them at 1.45pm. Camping inside Jurong West Public Library. Voicing out all the ideas we have and make into an essay. This essay is part of MapleSEA event "Voice Out Loud". While gathering ideas, we chat quite a lot except WL. Not even a single word from him sia. Then this KK, sibeh a lot of craps sia.
By the time the essay looks almost complete, it is 4.15pm. I leave the outstanding editings to myself when I reached home. By the time I returned to JP Subway, 4.30pm liao. Although she's done, there is something crop up. My guess was... her work schedule. Indeed it is.
Suddenly, she passed me Tuna Sub. Not hungry sia. Eat later. XD Finally she settled her schedule. However, seems to have stm. lol~ Because... plan to watch "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" mah. Schedule tight, and her upcoming family oversea holiday outing in August. The discussion went about 30 minutes, before heading to Arcade.
To keep the Arcade happenings as short as possible... There will be upcoming Jubeat Tourament - Info & FAQs. Hana... passed again. Maybe 1 day, I should try and play this as 1st song in Taiko.
Since it is quite late already, I decided to eat before going home. So Tuna Sub = my breakfast She told me about the mini-food fair at JP. Pineapple Rice for my dinner. Shark Fin soup & Filet-o-fish for her dinner. Then I "toot" sia. Bo add vinegar in Shark Fin soup, only pepper. T.T
About the Tuna Sub, open it up, it looks like this. I add in Cheese Sausage too. What should I call it? Cheese Sausage Tuna Sub?
Popular image hosting service ImageShack was hacked Friday evening (July 10) by a group calling itself Anti-Sec.
The Imageshack hack saw all images hosted on the service replaced by an image that detailed Anti-Sec’s manifesto. The group also distributed a copy of their manifesto to Imageshack’s users via the same email facility used to update Imageshack users with site updates and news.
Anti-Sec is calling on the security industry to stop the practice of full disclosure, the practice of publicly making available exploits and security vulnerabilities. According to the group, full disclosure is a scam that helps security companies sell software such as firewalls and anti-virus tools as the published exploits can and are used by script kiddies; that is the companies are purposely empowering those doing the wrong thing so as to create more fear and exploits as part of driving business for services that offer protection against these things.
There’s no official word from ImageShack yet as to when the service may return to normal, although at the time of writing parts of the site would appear to be working. Anti-Sec suggests in their manifesto that images on ImageShack have not been deleted.
09 July 2009 Met Jun Le for lunch before heading to Iluma Bugis. Somehow, a lot of stuffs to talk sia. Maybe long time no meet le. lol~
Upon arrival at Iluma, it's still very early sia. Btw, this is my 2nd time watching movie at FilmGarde (Iluma Bugis) liao. Buy ticket for the movie "20th Century Boys [Chapter 2]". Still got more than an hour before the show starts. Went to play Taiko. =X Surprisingly, there were miricles. 4 pictures taken.
Apparently, I have no idea why I took this picture. My personal best record for Dragon Spirit?
I have a reason to take this picture. This is my personal best record. Somehow I managed to play this song. O_O? Or just tyco-ness?
This is the song which I always fail by a few bars or more. Somehow I passed it. lol?
This is the song which... sorry Jenny. I broke your record. *mixed feelings* Perhaps next or next next week... when we go FileGarde (Iluma Bugis) watch Harry Potter??? xD
As the time passes, it is already 2.50pm. Proceed to FilmGarde. Luckily, the movie have yet to start. It started at 3pm, which means... 10-minute commercial.
This movie, if you watch carefully, the timeline starts from the year around 2015. At certain point of time, some main characters in the movie will tell their past around the late 1960s and early 1970s. The two books "Book of Prophecy" and "New Book of Prophecy" were featured.
There is another character who is known as "Friend". The evil guy who plans to destroy the world on the Bloody New Year's Eve of 2000. Follows closely to the "New Book of Prophecy", it will tell you the timeline what will happen in the Year 2015.
The chapter 2 of the 20TH CENTURY BOYS trilogy stars in 2015, 15 years after the world is nearly destroyed. People now believe that Kenji and his friends were satanic terrorists and Friend, the mysterious cult leader, is worshiped as the savior of the world.
Kanna, Kenji's niece, is now in high school and she resents that the history textbooks tell a fabricated account of the fateful day. She is forced to participate in the Friend Land program to be re-educated when she is deemed to be anti-social. While in the program, Kanna uncovers clues to Friends real identity, and the shocking discovery of The New Book of Prophecies!
Kanna tries to find out who wrote The New Book of Prophecies and unravels the true identity of Friend.
Well, the ending of Chapter 2 is rather weird. "Friend" was shot dead, then suddenly during Expo 2015... he was revived. O_O Once revived, everyone will worship him as god. Just like Jesus? Then, he plans to destroy the world for 2017 (aka 3rd Year of Friend Era). As such, this movie will have Chapter 3 to it.
Headed home, and started hunting Nependeath's Honey in MapleSEA. Tio honey in 25 minutes. lol~ At first, I wanted to pass to Jenny de. Then I was like... tired sia. Go sleep at 12.15am. Then just now (around 9.25am), I on handphone... saw her message being sent to me at 12.17am. lol? Almost same timing, same pattern. Tired... go sleep.
05 July 2009 1.5 hour wait. Record wait time broken. lol~ From 4.30pm to 6pm. Lucky got mini-program on stage outside Subway. DJs from FM100.3 de. Kill time.
Now it seems that finding Jenny becomes my weekly routine? O_O?
1st time watch movie at Iluma Bugis. The cineplex is called FilmGarde. Watched Ice Age 3. Short and simple movie. Ok lar, still can watch.
Just that, the moment I entered the theatre and found my seat, I'm greeted by popcorns lying on the floor. zzz!~ Dunno which careless audience spilled Popcorns sia.
Then before watching movie, I go play 1 round Taiko while waiting for Victor. Actually, I purposely go there early since I want to clear some remaining credits. So now, I left 2 tokens to use. Also, I headed to 7th floor of Iluma building. There's a cyber-cafe... very big sia. Then quite a lot of people, since there's a Triple Ace Event organised by Asiasoft. No wonder I hear noises while the competitors are playing Sudden Attack?
02 July 2009 A trip to Jurong West again. -.- This time it will be the starting location, from Pioneer Hub to Bukit Merah. During the ride to Pioneer Hub, there's something wrong with the Air-conditioner. Warm air de. Reach Pioneer Hub. Hmmm, the building looks very new. From the top of the building, I can see MRT sia. Quite a long distance between Joo Koon and Pioneer wor. At least I added in some arrows with descriptions in the picture below.
After placing the equipments into the van, that's where the real hiccup starts. "Volcano" errupts from the vehicle after Billy opened the pressure cap. @_@ Orh btw, forget to intro. Billy is one of my father's friends. The journey continues after "resting", but same scenrio happened. Tow-truck come, pull to delivery destination, before towing to my father's workshop.
Inside the van, with no driver... it moves by itself. =X (Actually, the tow truck is pulling the van to move.) Reached workshop, saw this cute dog again. So cute lar... keep looking at me de.
A canteen located near his workshop, got 1 nice roasted duck rice. Alamak, long time never eat liao. I remembered last time during my Internship, I like to eat Roasted Duck Rice with Char Siew at Ubi Techpark. Haha! =DDDDD
Next, someone wants to meet me for teabreak. Go Sengkang with the repaired van. Walk around while waiting for Peter upon arrival at Compass Point. Discuss something about Pink Bean at Sengkang Sports Complex, since he drove me there. After that, go home.
Guess what? I missed that **** bus. -.-" So I tried the new route. Sengkang-Khatib via Circle Line. OMG lar, cost me a BOMB! Time taken is no different from bus. -.-"
Bus 965 from Sengkang to Khatib: $1.31 Bus 85 from Sengkang to Khatib: $1.21 MRT from Sengkang to Khatib: $1.71
