Woooo Shoeeee(Wu Shu)

As the Chinese New Year approaches, malls like The Curve, Mid Valley, KLCC, One Utama and other places start to turn red.

I'm sure most of you know Red symbolises good luck for Chinese people and wearing black on Chinese New Year to someones house will get you stared at...or worst get kick out of the house(if the tenants are crazy enough to do that la).
But anywayz, today I was at the curve for my piano classes when I saw alot of ppl crowding the center of the mall area.

Curious, I oso went and kay poh la...turns out to be a Wu Shu demonstration for the coming CNY 0.0





Don't they just look like those SK II brochure passing girls at Mid Valley? ok...maybe not exactly, but they have their similarities. At 1st I thought the girls gonna fight slowly like how I used to "spar" when i was taking tae kwon do. Yes, i don't kid you I did go for it before...but that was before la.
Back to the wu shu girls... the way they played it slow at 1st and pick up speed nearing the end was amazing. Too bad it was only a spar with staves and not swords.
There were sword acts, but i malas wanna take picture(forgive me for my laziness) and it wasn't a one on one, but more like ownself swing the swrd here and there...
Not only they had teenagers doing those spars...but they also had small kidz doing it too...

It was kinda funny at 1st, coz the way they did their expression on the face. Like having constipation. But when they did splits....the only words...W-o-W. Now I really feel like commiting myself to learning wu shu... xD(which i already did).
Hopefully can learn until that pro lar...
Till then...

Windows Vista Launch and O2Jam Competition

So far i've been busy with alot of stuff and didn't have the time to blog. Thus i'll try to write as long as i can...this time wid pix :D

Today i started my journey to my college/university in PJ. Morning i drove...etc etc...and reached the LRT station. As i reached the campus, i entered the hall where they were giving the introduction to the new Windows Vista. The new vista has alot of upgrades to its predecessor Windows XP. The main features of this program is the desktop design which almost makes the XP look nooby compared to the Vista. Apart of that, it has higher security enhancement and other really cool stuff. Want more info? well visit Microsoft's Website

As far as i can tell, you will need A DAMN KAO POWERFUL PC coz this thing eats ur RAM(Random Access Memory) like hell. So, after that I went and que up for the RM5 Windows Vista Business Edition Upgrade.
The que for the RM5 Windows Vista Business Edition
After purchasing it, I went back into the hall to look-see the interesting stuff they have in there. They had mini-games where they give students free Windows Vista Home Premium and other goodies too. Also in a section there was a Xbox and Xbox360 testing section.

The games they had there was a racing game which its name could never cross my mind, an aeroplane dogfight game,
















and DOA(Dead or Alive).

So, as i waited for the competition to start, I went around taking random photo's :
Soon, all chess competitions will use a laptop instead of the old fashion Chess Set

The O2Jam Competition area

Anyone wanna register for Microsoft's new VISA?
Around 2.10pm, the competition had started. Looking at the score board, I was in the 2nd group. Looking at the 1st groups score, I thought I didn't have a chance in the competition and of course felt alot of pressure. Luckily the 1st 3 songs were easy ones. Those who played o2jam before the three songs were Go Hell, The Festival of the Ghost 2, and another song which i forgot due to my short term memory loss -.- . These songs were Easy X4 speed. I managed to full combo two of the songs but lost concentration on one song and missed a note.
Then was the semi-finals where we were supposed to play 5 songs. Me and a few other ppl had to be delayed as some of the laptops didn't have the songs Distro X, [SHD]Zero-one, Hell Boy, V3, and same thing again i forgot the last song. These were Normal X4 speed. I had no comments on how i played :P
Finally after 8 songs, I entered the finals. This time we played 7 songs, those songs were Gargoyle, A Trip to Heaven, Cutting Circles, Identity 1, Identity 11, and again another song which i have forgotten. After finishing the songs, I waited at the score board to check my score. But the marshalls and judge had to push the score board back coz of the Hip-hop/Breakdancing event.
After the event, there was a lucky draw event to see who can get the Windows Vista Home Premium CD.
My friend tried three times and didn't get it...

Instead....

This guy tried once and got it...LOL!! talk about luck.
Thus at the prize giving ceremony, they announced i got 2nd Runner-up for the o2jam competition and this was my prize...

A Cap, Hamper and a Wallpaper together with a Windows Vista bag

Nothing much, but still its a prize.
And coz of this i missed going to Hitz.fm Birthday bash.
Win some you lose some......
