Of Black and White in the Week that Was.

And now I'm going to tell you the tale of the forgotten Dark Knight.



*disc screech*

Haha. Got you didn't I?

Weee.... So, last week, I have been pretty busy with Chess Week and Chess Closed competition, not as a participant but as an organizer, so I guess dressing up real nice is something I find necessary to complete this event as an organizer? Haha.
Some of my friends thought I'm mad, to wear formal/half-formal for four freaking days. Well, like I always say, no harm dressing up once in awhile for someone or something eh? Does it really hurt to look nice?

Oh and so the by, I was all dressed up for another reason as well, PRESENTATION! Jeng jeng jeng~ One of those times where I can really show my talent in speaking and capturing people's attention just with words. Haha. I swear once I start speaking, everyone shuts up and listen and I love that kind of magic. Not that I'm bragging. XD

On the first day I was wearing formal black and white, to compliment the Giant Reversi, which is the highlight of our chess week. Haha!





On the second day, I wore all white. I seem to be glowing in this picture..



On the third day, I was in all black.



On Saturday's Chessed Closed, I was in Black and White again.



All in all, it's been a wonderful week dressing up and having fun in Black and White. Here's a shoutout to all my working committee, YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST AND THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL MEMORY!

It's Been A Bitter Pill, But I'm Better Now. ^^

Yes, if any of you have been keeping up with me, I suppose most of you do realise that I have been conned of my laptop, phone and some cash. I'm not too hardup about the materials that I have lost, but more of the contents of the laptop and the numbers that went missing along with the phone. It was quite a nightmare for me, (well, not really, but for the sake of looking like a damsel in distress, just play along with me aight?) I pretty much have two sleepless nights rolling on my bed at night die to utter boredome. I got my number back by the way, but much to my horror, that bastard used my number to con another friend of mine a Rm500. I was really surprised to know so many things can happen in one night. I didn't even have enough time to block my number. XD
Looking on the bright side, it's not like I lost everything. I pretty much spent his RM2000 on clothes, not forgetting the meals we had, the money he spent on other things too. So, my dear laptop costs about Rm 1800, after depreciation, and the RM400 something cash I lost to him, so all in all I didn't really lose everything. In fact, I recovered pretty quickly and I didn't even shed a tear because I know doing that would be pretty useless. Hehe.
I've been busying myself lately with my university's Chess Club. No, it's not like I'm a big geek or anything, but I find Chess Club to be the only club without politics, whereby we all are like one big happy family and I swear to the fates I do mean it. We've just finished one major event call Chess Week today and lemme tell you guys it was one of the best event I have ever been as an organizer. XD
The participation was great, the crowd wasn't as big but was bigger than what we expected, the members were cool despite some setbacks but we pulled it off and everyone was happy.
So, my friends in that particular event were quite caring as of my condition. The lost laptop, handphone and cash.. what not? Any given people would be sad, but I guess I have stayed above the clouds of emo to not let my setback cost everyone's day. So I pretty much smiled the entire time, to not let others lose hope. They were pretty much smothering me with words of comfort and I was like, "Guys, thanks. I feel alright. Don't worry about me. Now I feel like playing chess. Any taker?"
And immediately they knew, they knew that I'm not the kind of guy who endorses a sudden raincloud over a bright sunny day. I'm just more concerned about the amount of damage that bastard have caused to my dignity, friends and more importantly, my trust on other people. Yes, I admit, I'm more screwed now. I don't realy trust people anymore. Or maybe, that's just how I'm feeling right now. Who knows?
Last but not least, I am quite happy now. Haha. To know that someone wants to hug me. XD

It's been a bitter pill to swallow, but I'm better now!

Where are we heading now?

Verily the idea of implementing a firewall on pornography website is going to make me sad. Malaysia is already currently under the talks of implementing what China did to its netizen, censoring pornography from the general public. Then, in today's local paper, I couldn't help but feel cryptic about an idiots suggestion to censor online games as well, making it sound like computer games are the root of all evil misdeed nowadays. Surely the ideas he pitched was good, but not reasonable. As in, how the hell do you want the Government to ban online games? Surely its implementable, but then again, to what extend? And how frustrated will we get if we can't even play games to release our tension? Like seriously?
Suppose, if you say students are playing truant, ending up in cybercafes instead of being in school, I don't think the video games are to be blamed. It's more likely the students who play truant who are to be blamed. I mean, addiction is one thing, but suppose if a student knows how to rationalise the problem, it wouldn't even be a problem in the first place. So, instead of blaming the games, how about a self-reflecting moment for the parents? I don't see me playing truant in school before because of video games, although I'm pretty much a hardcore gamer myself.
If there were anything to be censored in the internet, it's propaganda. Look at the bigger concern right now. Isn't fighting online terrorism one of our biggest problem now? Students from our country are being recruited into terrorism network, and plus the fact that the students targeted are mostly Muslim students in public university, this is indeed worrying to the core.
Then, instead of worrying about something as trivial as someone watching pornography, how about trying to curb rape and premarital sex amongst students? I still don't know why our country is still backward when it comes to sense and sensibility. I mean, can't we discuss about sex openly under the sun than to sweep it under the carpet when the question arise? Why are we shying ourselves from the fact that the youngsters nowadays are lacking the brains to think and have been using their dick to make decisions? I was most surprised when I learn of students from my former high school as young as 15 were already having sex with others about their age. And without protection too. I am definitely most impressed. How bold they are nowadays. Haha. Well, I can only say they are quite stupid and when things do get out of hands, Happy Father's Day to you kids. What is so hard implementing compulsory sex education in school? Some times, they are just too stupid..
Anyway, I'm a little tired now, forgive me for the lame rambling. I kinda have a feeling that my post here isn't quite as impressive and lack the uhm... firebrand that my posts always have. I promise a more juicy and awesome post next time.

Ciao.
