FML!...sorry for the lack of updates

hello hello...hello AGAIN~...i think i need to type hello a few hundred times to payback for the super lack of updates. anyways..im over the defect from the cop incident...so im not gonna put any posts with regards to that. UNLESS my anger and rage decides to surface again!

Winter is here...Melbourne is getting real cold the last couple of weeks. You can see the temperature dropping by the day...the rain, and constant overcast has helped chilled the ground from the amount of heat soaked up over summer. Cold wind is blowing in as well...so welcome to the official descend of mercury levels. I have a feeling it is going to be cold this year...REAL COLD!

So whats with global warming? We are entering a new ice age people. ICE AGE!
buy your winter clothing while it is still cheap now! lol...ok i have nothing to back up the last sentence..just ignore it.

so whats new?
the new new new story is......

The subaru, my baby, is now GONE!!....i don't own it anymore..it is GONE!..i mean...she is gone!
Traded her in for a new car which i will unveil real soon. <----im doing this deliberately so people will still keep coming back to this blog. :P

a hint ...:

This is it....a little foreplay for you guys...lol....

Reason for this change:

• Car was too small for parents to sit behind
• Cops were after my back!!..EVERY WEEK!!..including the defect that i collected for NO REASON AT ALL!.
• Almost touching 100,000kms...a number which i don't really like seeing on the odometer.

A farewell picture. Both cars were sold in the same week. :(

hmmm...nth much has been going on lately. Was really really busy removing bits and pieces from the old car. Spent the whole Anzac long weekend removing the audio gear, wheels, discs, and many other stuff which were put in the last 4 years. A rather sad occassion seeing the car go but ...have to let her go to get the new one.

I dedicate this post to the White Subie which has served me well in the last 4 years. Taking me everywhere safe and sound. Neva gave up on me. And bringing me joy and happiness.

Hope she finds a good home soon.

And also, half dedication to the new car for now. Will have a full post on the new one with a small review on it as well.

Just for fun~ :D:D

YO!!!

Hello all.....a very big big sorry for the superbly long delay in update...been busy busy busy busyy like a dog....

my baby, work, parents were here, car, friends, all contributed to the absence of Quanzilities...

so so so...what da hell did i do the past month???? hmmm....PLENTY...so much that i forgot alot of them..haha...

ok firstly, just to report a very outdated story...Melbourne was hit by the worse hailstorm in a long long time....lemme show you some pictures: (this was what i experienced first hand)

And....a very unfortunate friend of mine, you know who you are, she and her sister and another housemate had their cars written off from the hail:

ahhh....but they have moved on now...and bought better more powerful than previous cars muahahaha

addition of new mountain bike people:

NEXT:

uhm..........i actually have alot more to write but its 12:15a.m. now... = bed time

hmm....lets have a small preview of what might be on the next post:

lets look at the yellow thing closer:

seriously...u know what? FUCK THE POLICE! u will know why i am saying this when i finally get a chance to tell the story...I used to have some degree of respect to police in Victoria...until that very fucking night.... that very cop that put this sticker on my windscreen! u gave a bad name to the force behind you..SHAME ON YOU! you deserve nothing but insults and degradation! ASS HOLE! just stay tuned...i have a feeling the next post will be full of rage! 18-PG! mahai!~

ok~ good night everyone! long long weekend ahead! LONG!!!!! WEEKEND!!!

Haiti - We Are The World Foundation

Hi guys...this post came probably a little late...i was meant to put it up but i totally forgot about it...in wake of the disaster that happened in Haiti, the artists has gathered to remake the song We Are The World recently...here it is:



Although I've heard this song repeatedly, it still touches me everytime i watch it for some reason. We can all make a small contribution to these victims of natural disaster.

Here's the site.

We Are The World Foundation

thanks guys.

Canon EOS 500D YO!!!

of course...these pictures were taken with:

1st picture from the 500D for this blog :)

more to come people! off to bed now...

good nights!

back down under

Hello people!~...been awhile huh...sorry....Penang was treating me too well i barely had any time to blog...ahh....now...its all over...my trip..my holiday...has finished and now i am back to reality...back to my usual life/routine....back to the land down under......

1st of all....I am proud to announce that i have finally...FINALLY had a chance to board the worlds largest commercial passenger aircraft....the Airbus A380 by Singapore AIrlines

 

Picture taken @ Tullamarine airport upon arrival

ahhh...sooo...what is the big deal about this plane? IT IS A BIG DEAL!....ill leave the engineering stuff aside...but the experience is priceless...

its like taking a ride in a Rolls Royce Phantom...why so? because...it is so eerily quiet in this plane. I have read many reviews about this plane on the quietness of it but i was really skeptical. How can you insulate the noise from 4 giant thrusting turbofan engines sitting only a few metres away from you? HOW!!!....but!!! believe it or not...Airbus engineers managed to do it. During take off, you can barely hear the noise from the engines..YES! all for of them...of course I will be lying if i say i don't hear them at all, but, just take the noise of a normal aircraft taking off and you lower the volume by 70%...yes! that was what i think how quiet it was...30% loudness of a normal aircraft taking off.

Next most amazing thing is, as most of you might notice, immediately after take off or just before landing, you can hear the landing gears retracting. This usually gives a really lout exploding sort of noise. And this time i am not exaggerating. IF you do not pay any attention to it, you will not hear that noise at all in the A380.

The inflight entertaintment in the SIA A380 is also amazing. You get bigger screens in economy class, you get USB ports for your ipods/iphones or even load files from your usb sticks, you get LAN cable ports (not sure if they are functional but the fact that its there is good enough), and finally you get an  RCA video input port too. The controllers for the entertaintment system was of awesome build too with the buttons lighting up to help you see in the dark.

Then there is a very cool feature added. They added a reading light just below the monitor (shinning straight onto the retractable tray/table). I think this is a brilliant idea for international passengers to fill up their arrival cards! 

LOVELY!

comfort wise, i still prefer seats in the BOeing 777ER of Singapore Airlines. No particular reason but i think it was because the seats did not recline as much in the A380 as compared to the 777ER.

Anyways....enough...i was just too excited to let u guys know how cool this aircraft is and would 100% want to board it again. 

hmm..i don't really want to blog without pictures. The pictures i took are all in my netbook right now. My room is in a HUGE mess and my life is not good right now... I AM HOMESICK! lol....so gimme some time to sort out the pictures and i will blog more about my penang trip...

again....i apologise for the lack of updates...i promise after these few days, once i have settled down to life in Melbourne again, i will continue my frequent updates. muahaha

meanwhile, how you guys enjoy the remaining days of Chinese New Year...

This is Quanzilities, signing out for the night...hope to speak to ya'lll REAL soon!

Good night world!

Sorry for the long pause people! Got back from Kota Kinabalu last night and was too tired to blog...so it has to be tonight before i start losing readers...:)

what can i say about KK....had an awesome time there...the food, the drinks, the company i had there, and not to forget...Mr. Don's weeding!!!! one of the best vacation EVER!...i did not bring my camera along...so ....really sorry guys...no pictures...but to make a visualisation...i would say...its party party party...drink drink drink...and eat eat eat!!!

Flight back was a little scary...the plane had some technical problem before our flight and was delayed for an hour...and....i don't think the problem was 100% rectified before we took off...so i was on my toes throughout the flight....Alhamdulilah i got back in 1 piece man! ...DAyEMM!!!!!

Back to penang....lets continue with the food spree:

Nasi Lemak with Anchovies (RM1.50)

Apom Manis

Mc. Donalds chicken prosperity burger

Char Kuey Teow (Fried Kuey Teow)

SUGAR CANE!!! Something that Melbourne doesn't have!! well...not as nice for sure!

Hmmm......this is a teaser....there's more to come from tonight's dinner...but.....bad news came during dinner...my maternal grandmother passed away while we were having dinner tonight. I am having mixed emotions now...hmm

Though haven't spent much time with her all these years since i was borned, she still means alot to me. I will be driving back to mum's hometown tommorow morning for the funeral and will most likely not be around again to blog for at least a few days...im guessing at least 5 days. My apologies to you guys for this. I will try to get internet connection there.

I hope the Melbourne weather is treating you guys well (for those in Melbourne). It is extremely hot here but i am not complaining....it's a previlige not to worry about bringing any jjacket wherever you go or at least not worried at all if the weather is gonna turn cold.

This has been a very eventful trip. I hope things will only get better from now.

Dear grandma,

I will miss you forever!:( I LOVE YOU~~

signing out now for a good rest before the hour drive tommorow.

Thanks guys and girls...

Location: Penang, Malaysia

hello again everyone.....sorry for the lack of posts the past 1 week....been a busy week for me...
ok...right now..i am sitting in my room in Penang typing this post...muahahah...departed Melbourne @ 11.20am, arrived in Singaport for transit at 1600 hours Malaysia time (GMT+8)....then Departed S'pore at 1900 and arrived at 2010hours!!!  wooohooo!!!...my life is gonna rawk!
lol

anyways....here are some pictures:

Washed and cleaned and prepared for her 1month hibernation :)

A picture with the missus muahaha...already missing her!!!!

Airbus A380 that i saw at Tullamarine....

Singapore Airlines Airbus A380

Roast Chicken

Hokkien Mee aka. HAR MIN

Otak Otak

Cham Peng - Coffee and Tea with condensed milk!

Went to this coffee shop along Gurney Drive called Song River. This is like a mandatory stop everytime i touch down in Penang from Melbourne. Dad already preprograms his brain to drive there regardless of how full/empty my stomach is...muahahahha

just by typing this post...im feeling hungry again although i just ate them bout 2 hours ago....lol...

It is so nice to be back home.....the weather needs a little acclimatising BUT it won't take too long. After all, i've been here for the first 19 years of my life. 7 years in aussie land won't do much damage to how the body has evolved to suit this weather innit?

One thing that i have to brag will be my blackberry. It has not stopped surprising me ever since i got it. Guess what this time...the Blackberry service is working in Penang....singapore too~~~~
woohoo!!! i can safely say....that...i made the most correct choice by getting this phone instead of an iphone!
BB ROCKS~~

alright people..i have to go to bed now...a long day ahead...might not be blogging until next tuesday as i will be off to Sabah tommorow night for a friend's wedding and might not have internet access (more like no time) to update the blog. until then. enjoy your weekend guys~ be safe and DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE~

adios
