As I Mature

This came in the email today..
Just sharing..


As i Mature..

I've learned that you cannot make
someone love you. All you can do is
stalk them and hope they panic and give in

I've learned that no matter how much I care,
some people are just assholes.

I've learned that it takes years
to build up trust, and it only takes
suspicion, NOT proof, to destroy it.

I've learned that you can get by
on charms for about fifteen minutes.
After that, you'd better have a big willy
or huge boobs.

I've learned that you shouldn't
compare yourself to others - they are
more screwed up than you think

I've learned that you can keep vomiting
long after you think you're finished

I've learned that we are responsible
for what we do, unless we are celebrities

I've learned that regardless of
how hot and steamy relationship is at
first, the passion fades, and there had better
be a lot of money to take its place!

I've learned that 99% of the time when
something isn't working in your house, one
of your kids did it.

I've learned that the people you care most,
about in life are taken from you too soon
and all the less important ones
just never go away

Battlefield: Bad Company 2

The game that i recently finish playing..




Battlefield Bad Company 2, man what can i say.... after playing Modern Warfare 2 (MW2) a couple of months before i play this game, i could have swore i would never play another FPS game. But Bad Company 2 (BC2) proved that is not the case.

I somehow find that playing BC2 is comparatively enjoyable as much as MW2. I dont play multiplayer so i would reserve the opinion for that for other people. I only enjoy single player and BC2 delivers the experience nicely. with some witty companions and great story.

i just wish that it would be longer though.

SO now i'll just cant wait to play Call of Duty:Black Ops in November 9, 2010 and the new Medal of Honor slated for release October 12, 2010

adios!!

Coloring hazard!!

The wonderful world of "short" color pencils.



The above came from my daughter school bag, since i make a "sport" (noted - SPORT not SPOT) check in her bag looking for her missing hair clip.
I thought might as well just take a peek inside her color pencil box.

Those mixed color of different brand is due to friend borrowing her color and never return the right one back to her.

As for the length of the color, resulted from the excessive use of sharpener.. no wonder the color pencil maker can live with just doing stationary. They became so short as the shortest being around 1.3cm and i have to sharpen it using a cutting-knife... a real pain!!

I can foresee a request to a stationary shop in the very near weekend as to replenish her needs for color pencil as obviously from the above............

Bioshock....

Bioshock 1...
..i'm in shock!!
Just got to installing this game (yea..yea... its almost 3 years old game dated back from 2007, but what to do i just getting around to play it yesterday), actually in preparation before i get the latest Bioshock 2 game. My first impression: never thought that the environment is just scary (or is it eerie) every ambiance sound is played out very nicely and every step you'll want to hit ESC (to save) often. and i would recommend everyone to play this one first prior to playing the latest Bioshock 2. Be on a look-out for BIG DADDY !!!

For Detail review head over to my favorite game review site for the review of BIOSHOCK from IGN and they give this game 9.7/10 point and also got the Editor's Choice seal.
Click Me to go there!

For a Visual Walkthrough of Bioshock, click here (this is for those who like to be through in playing the game. Else dont bother since it might spoil the fun of the suprise in the game)


Will continue to play this alternately with the Dragon Age Origins (which got a few more hours before i can conclude that game)


until then...

adios....

It came from the email: Facts about Your Farts







It Came From the Email: Facts about Your Farts

Its been a while since i last update this "series" , so this is the latest entry.
i dont know if the photo below is readable but hopefully it is as it is choke-full of facts about your farts.

and one interesting thing i can pull from it is that we (average person) will fart around 14 times/day... man that is a lot of farts.. the number will increase if you ate a lot of beans on the night before that.. so be careful guys and read it from the image for more facts..

now that you know...










5 Best Drinks to keep you going..


5 Best Drinks To Keep You Going Through The Night

i was browsing for some article related to Coffee and Apples when i "accidently" click on the this link entitled "5 best Drinks to Keep You Going.."

I find it useful for people who need to stay up all night doing their hobby etc.
Like me for example, where i only got to do my Scale Modelling Hobby during the wee hours of the night since that is the best time i got to enjoy building my models.

But personally going through the list i found that coffee can no longer can keep me awake... maybe due to the facts that my system is pretty much saturated with caffeine thus rendering introducing more caffeine into the system ineffective (eventhough i only consume caffeine related drinks once a day, in the morning, in the office).

Coke also of no use to me, i think the last time i consume a bottle of coke is a a friends house months ago.. so not going to start having some so soon and the thought of drinking it in the middle of the night might in turn be bad for the teeth :lol:

Going down the list, i think at the end a bottle of Mineral water is what works for me during the midnight hours... but of course need to have a steady supply of it else for sure will fall asleep like nobody business....

Let see if i can convince some of my friends to at least try to have mineral water during their modelling session since i know most of them is a part time hobbyist like me......

Tools for Decalling...

Tools for decals...

As i promised in yesterday's post.
Here are the "solution" i used in the steps...

These pictures i get from the internet.


Gunze Mr Mark Softer

Basically, i use this to make the decal "softer" so that it will set in the recess panel lines on the plane body. But have to be very careful, since the decal will be really soft, so have to be careful if you use brush to apply the FUTURE (see below) since it might drag the decal along with the brush stroke and believe me... you dont want that to happen... i know...




Gunze Mr Mark Setter


As the name said, this is to make the decal "bite" into theFuture surface that we applied prior to applying decals. When using this the surface will turn slight "whiteish" this is normal it will go away once you use Mr Softer and then the Future. It will go away.


Johnson "Future"

Ingenious way to use thos Floor finish product on models. Details of this product can be found in other place :o). But this is what i use as the surface finishing prior to applying decals and also as a mean to "seal" the decal on the surface. This can be applied with brush / airbrushed on.. but with the later i have less success with it, maybe i need to practise more.. :o)

that's a brief explaination... for more details, google is your friend....


enjoy..

F-16C Aggressor (Decal)


F-16C Aggressor (Decal Process)

Another round of updates!! this time decal..

i saw that this is going to be a problem for me..
since 2bobs decided to use multiple layer decal-style....
they even have 3 layers of decal to be place on-top one another (backing - decal - another decal) which i'll show much later on..

but first to test the decal i try on the tail fin.. this side only have 2 layers..

so this is how i do it.. hopefully its the right way..

1. prep the surface with Future (as normal)
2. when dry, i put Mr Setter.
3. Put the decal (of course after soaking it with warm water)
4. use Mr Softer.
5. gently use future on top of the decal to set it in place and let dry in preparation of the next decal layer.
6. when the first decal is set (the future dried), i put my setter again.
7. repeat step 1 - 5.

so the result as follows...




in the next updates, i'll show the Mr Softer, Mr Setter and Future for reference..
enjoy!!

Secondhand Serenade - Like a Knife



Someone suggested me to listed to this song and i did and loving it..

Its from their album titled "A Twist in My Story" Track #1. A very nice song indeed
Follow the link to youtube for the live-video-version of the song.
ENJOY!!!


I did a lot, I know you say
I've got to get away.
"The world is not yours for the taking"
Is all you ever say.

I know I'm not the best for you,
But promise that you'll stay.
'Cause if I watch you go,You'll see me wasting, you'll see me wasting away

'Cause today, you walked out of my life
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

Goodbyes are meant for lonely people standing in the rain
And no matter where I go it's always pouring all the same.
These streets are filled with memories
Both good for detected pain
And all I wanna do is love you
But I'm the only one to blame.

'Cause today, you walked out of my life
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

But what do I know, if you're leaving
All you did was stop the bleeding.
But these scars will stay forever,
These scars will stay forever
And these words have no meaning
If we cannot find the feeling
That we held on to together
Try your hardest to remember

Stay with me,Or watch me bleed,
I need you just to breathe.
'Cause today, you walked out of my life
(stay with me, or watch me bleed)
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife
(i need you just to breathe.)
I'm not living this life

Eat those Oats:Muesli Biscuits




Grocery shopping yesterday, and see this new biscuits on the shelf.
Since the biscuits that i normally have at home (which if from another kind) is about to expired (why i buy a close to expiry date thing is another story); i thought i give this a try.

Upon tasting the biscuit, i fall in love with the taste. Full with those "muesli" stuff + oats etc and very filling i must add. In the big package they have 10 individually pack biscuit (which i think a trend that need to be standardize for ease of handling); very convenience indeed.


But the problem is, i cant stop at just 1 pack... last nite alone i end up eating 4 packs in 1 sitting, maybe i was hungry due to an early dinner of Laksa i have earlier or maybe i just trying to stay awake at 12am after a session of Dragon Age Origins (DAO). And speaking of DAO; last nite only a short session due to the extreme sleepiness that i literally doze of infront of the monitor (i guess the 4 packs of biscuits didnt help me stay awake at all) :lol:

anyway, try this biscuit and share your thought.

F-16C Aggressor

F-16C Aggressor "Lizard Scheme"

So another round of modelling madness and few first thing for me also.

The below set of work were completed last week and a few achievement were made ini the process of painting the model.

a) First freehand camo (no masking used)
b) First time using a less thinner in the paint mixing process.
c) First time to truly use Photoshop Elements 7 to edit the picture (all those borders etc)

As of last night, the model already going through a "Future" bath in preparation for the decal application which "hopefully" will begins tonight if i can get a break from watching TV (CSI Miami Season Finale is tonight).

The model will appear a bit shiny, but i'm sure a coat of Flat Coat later on (after the decal) will cover the shining thing.

That is all for today, be right back later..

Paku di Dinding Hati

Something dari email.. sure many people already received or seen this... we can really relate to this...

Paku-Paku di Dinding Hati...



Ada seorang pemuda yang sangat pemarah. Dia tidak dapat mengawal kemarahannya walaupun ianya hanya satu masalah kecil sahaja.

Pada suatu hari, bapanya telah menghadiahkannya dengan seguni paku. "Untuk apakah paku-paku ini ayah?" tanya pemuda tersebut. "Setiap kali kamu marah, kamu pakulah tembok batu di hadapan rumah kita ini, bagi melepaskan kemarahan mu" jawab ayahnya.

Pada hari yang Pertama sahaja, pemuda itu telah memaku sebanyak 37 batang paku pada tembok batu tersebut. Selepas beberapa minggu, setelah dia dapat mengurangkan kemarahannya, jumlah paku yang digunakan juga
berkurangan. Dia mendapati, adalah lebih mudah mengawal kemarahannya dari memukul paku menembusi tembok batu tersebut.

Akhirnya tibalah pada suatu hari, dimana pemuda tersebut tidak marah, walau sekali pun. Dia pun memberitahu ayahnya mengenai perkara tersebut dengan gembira. Bapanya mengucapkan tahniah dan menyuruh dia mencabut kembali paku itu satu persatu, pada setiap hari yang ia lalui tanpa kemarahan.

Hari berganti hari, dan akhirnya dia berjaya mencabut kesemua paku-paku tersebut. Pemuda tersebut lantas memberitahu perkara tersebut kepada bapanya dengan bangganya. Bapanya lantas memimpin tangannya ke tembok tersebut dan berkata "Kau telah melakukannya dengan baik, anakku, tetapi lihatlah kesan lubang-lubang di tembok batu tersebut, tembok itu tidak akan kelihatan sama lagi seperti sebelumnya.


Bila kau menyatakan sesuatu atau melakukan sesuatu ketika marah, ianya akan meninggalkan kesan parut dan luka, sama seperti ini. Kau boleh menikam seseorang dengan pisau dan membunuhnya. Tetapi ingatlah, tak kisah berapa kali kau memohon maaf dan menyesal atas perbuatam mu, namun lukanya masih tetap ada. Luka di hati adalah lebih pedih dari luka fizikal. Sahabat adalah permata yang sukar dicari. Mereka membuatkan kamu ketawa dan menggalakan kamu ke arah kejayaan. Sahabat juga adalah seorang pendengar, berkongsi suka dan duka dan sentiasa membuka hatinya kepada kita.

.... i'm feeling a bit....
