pedal and pedal board :D

pedalboard gifff
My Pedalboard :D okay, first time aku buat gif like this. it was hardddddd





her is my 56 pound pedal. the Big Muff Pi With Tone Wicker! woooo! looks beast man.


behind the pedalboard. I wanted the power supplies on the board so that I dont have to carry the extention and the power adapters separately so voila! had to screw the power into its place cuz the velcro wasn't strong enough >.> the adapters were heavy.


underside of the board. its got a super complex network of cables going on. if I tell you how it works, I'd have to kill you.
(its just 4 nails hammered down so that I can loop the cables around to make it smart)


weee~ the velcro on the underside of the pedals and on the board sticks goodddd~ you can even flip it over! and that is my lovely Vox VT30 amp<3


Big Mufffffffff~~~~


underside of the pedal. okay, I dont have the heart to superglue the velcro onto the pedal D: so I had to use duct tape, then put the superglue on the duct tape and then the velcro. woooo! thank god I figured that out before I superglued my pedals.


my Ibanez TS9DX pedal


underside of the ibanez pedal. same thing here :3

I need to put a handle onto the board so that lagi senang angkat :3
next time I make a pedal board, its gonna be soooo kickass! so yeah, this is a prototype :3

thanks!

Gyozaaaaaaa!

okay, tadi we made gyoza ^^ it was hella nice!

most of the work was done by me and my sis, we were hungry /:

we used diced chicken, onion, garlic, ginger, cabbage, black pepper and sesame oil for the inti. we bought the kulit from the stores. just mix em all together lah :D

and here are the pics!

this is Fahmi folding the the gyoza


my sister holding the finished raw gyoza


all of the finished raw gyoza


heating oil in the teflon pan. gotta use teflon pans. if not the gyozas will stick to the pan like crazey!


placed a few gyozas in


after we put the gyozas in, we leave them to lightly fry a bit. and then the fun part 8D we simbah the whole thing with water to get STEAAMMM!


water bubbling


on with the top to keep the steam in and steam the gyoza :3

gyoza cooking HORAAAAAAAA





top off after a few minutes of steaming





and voila!


umnumnumnum :DDD



tho it was time consuming, it was well worth it :9

give it a try nanti!

ingredients:
210g diced chicken
3 cloves garlic
ginger(to taste)
1/8 of a head of cabbage, dice it
1/8 cup of sesame oil

cooking time... not sure. we just cook it till it looks edible :9

Chase the Cat



found out about this guy from here then I googled about Chase and I ended up here. credits to these guys! seriously kesian D:

Her owner is Melissa Smith

When she was a kitten, she was hit by a car and was left on the road for a few days. A man found her and took her to the Chevy Chase Animal Clinic and he gave the doctors the money to fix her up and hopefully find her a new home. Doctors informed Melissa, a new vet tech, to take care of her. In the years, doctors twice attempted plastic surgery and neither was successful. She is now 5 years old and is left without a nose, eyelids, skin on her cheeks and one of her legs amputated after the accident.
now she has to use eye drops to keep her eyes moist.
she now works at a “therapy cat” touring schools and hospitals, helping boost the confidence of people with disfigurements.

meet Chase, here she is:









she gets along with the rest of the owner's cats nicely!

"Chase, who requires daily drops to keep her eyes moist, now works at a “therapy cat” touring schools and hospitals, helping boost the confidence of people with disfigurements." —Just what patients need to brighten up their day …

cool cat huh?
I'd love to see her in real life.

here are some fanarts (I'm guessing they're fanarts)



and a tattoo of her. It's fake kan? I see the shiny residue, the ones you'd get from temporary tattoos. still cool tho ^^


okay, this is my attempt to make the blog interesting. summarizing was kinda hard /: tried assembling the post nicely, not sure if I did a good job,,, but hey!

enjoy! hope you like it :3
leave a comment in the cbox on the right side of the blog ah :D I'd love to hear from you!

again, credits to these blogs:

Ganzfeld Procedure



At first this might sound like a bad practical joke. Begin by tuning a radio to a station playing static. Then lie down on a couch and tape a pair of halved ping pong ballsover your eyes. Within minutes you should begin to experience a bizzare set of sensory distortions.

Some people see horses prancing in the clouds or hear the voice of a dead relative. It turns out that the mind is addicted to sensation so that when there’s little to sense (that’s the purpose of ping pong balls and static) your brain ends up inventing its own.

Source: (Link)

I got this from here

so basically static sound and halved ping pong balls over the eyes then you'll see/hear weird stuff. nanti tah aku cuba :D need to get my hands on some ping pong balls :3

I will not sing

fuck I miss KB!

wonder if I should add my classmates on facebook... got their full names... the list was given to everyone... hmmmmm, karang durang pikir I'm a stalker or something D:
hmmmmm. guess better nanti saja. banyak jua kan check ah /:

my dad brought the bikes from kb to bandar yesterday. works fine now :D he says if me and Fahmi wants to go out to buy some food, we can just use the bikes to go to the shops :3 takut kana curi tho. but ah well, we'll just put some locks and keep an eye on the bikes lah.

made Gyoza filled with Sumai filling. it was ehhhhh. we need real ingredients. real chicken, real prawns, real veggies, etc. the fishball idea was argh! wasn't bad, but definitely wasn't good!

and holy hell, puasa is near. I can already smell the horror that is decorating for Hari Raya D: along with the hari raya deco shopping and rush. goddamned.
my sis said jis bagi the first day of raya off and the rest mesti sekolah D: dayummmmmmmmm! school in the day and afternoon, beraya at night, homework somewhere in the middle and therefore ahir tidur =.= shittttt

I wonder if my family ada open house. that'd be so fucking awesome.
KAREOKE, jamming, taking pictures like the shit (or not, my definition of "the shit" is more than 2 pictures. lol), reminisce about our crazy form 4-5 years, main Wii tennis and DDR (HAHAH, god I love that game), CS, gay rhape orgy, laugh about this and that, etc. hope ada. I'd love it. if dapat bring friends from jis. that'd prolly be fun :3

I found my laptop selling for $350 at BruDirect (or BruClassified). ohohoh!

and my Corby's speakers are fixed sudah :D haha, goddamn, it's been a few months since that incident. sandi lahhhh~
forgot to write the story here. so eh, Aqila and a few of my friends saja tau S:

remember the day when I went to the birthday party with some of my friends? that's the one. it was a fun day tho :3
basically, the phone took a dip with me in a pool bouncer. I went to jump in the pool and I had something in my pocket which I thought was the DSLR lens cover. rupanya its my phone @_____@ , I never had a phone that's that thin before S:
sampat lagi tu swimming for like 20mins. HAHA.
well the bluetooth's busted. the speakers pun rosak. only half of the touch screen works. Battery life is pretty short compared to how it was dulu.
now the bluetooth and battery life is fucked up. the rest is aok.

THANK GOD! :DD now I can call with the Corby~

I will not waste this.

I want to go swimming. Haven't been in the pool for a while now. I want to go back to KB. nothing much to do in bsb /:

here's something interesting I read from tumblr:

"YouTube Blog: What’s bigger than 1080p? 4K video comes to YouTube.

Thats 4096 x 2304 pixels! And be warned, watching videos in 4K even on YouTube, will require ultra-fast high-speed broadband connections. Click here to see the above in 4K resolution.
"

interesting! watching youtube videos on the TV must be hella better then!

but with Brunei's internet speed...... )':

originally looking for a digitech pedal, but nada, so check out the guitar lah.

globun glaba

okay, It has been SOOO long since I've picked up a novel. since a few days after the O-level exam in November O: the last novel I read was The Messenger. hmmm, baru setangah saja habis. cant be bothered to finish it >.>

what I'm going to attempt to read: Lost and Found by Carolyn Parkhurst.


ooo weee~ hope its good.


Yesterday I was invited to Arif's house cause his bro is getting engaged :D the whole thing was fun... and kinda scary S:
fun cause I got to meet up with the guys and was driven to the pengantin's house by Arip's cousin he drove like crazy fast :D.

scary cause it was crazy fast. nearly got into a few accidents S: he was on the phone lagi, switched lanes in a roundabout (we were THISSSS close to hitting the car in front), he was kinda fast when going on the speed bump (the gifts we were carrying on trays, idk the name, jumped and my friend's gift fell on the floor and holy hell, that was hard to rearrange). but it was fun :3

I want to build a pedal board. just a simple one. so yesterday, I got a piece of plywood, painted it black(I'm not sure if other colours are nice >.<) and tadahhh! (pics here) damn, the camera's with my sisters >.> and cant be bothered with the phone cam /:


damn, I've been listening to Break Even by The Script for a few months now. wowsh.

Lyrics:

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in
Cos I got time while she got freedom
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even

Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven... even... no

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you,
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
Cos she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven even... no

What am I gonna to do when the best part of me was always you,
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
(Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)

Oh you got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame.
Now I'm try'na make sense of what little remains ooh
Cos you left me with no love and no love to my name.

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in
Cos I got time while she got freedom
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break
No it don't break
No it don't break even no

What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you and
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok
(Oh glad your okay now)
I'm falling to pieces yeah
(Oh I'm glad your okay)
I'm falling to pieces yeah
(One still in love while the other ones leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
(Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)

Oh it don't break even no
Oh it don't break even no
Oh it don't break even no


vocal's damn hard D:

Kuro the cat

Kuro's been hanging around in me and Fahmi's room for a few days now. She used to be a fluffy decorative thing, like, she doesn't want to move around. Now, she's moving around, playing with receipts on the floor and stuff :D

We got her some yarn too :D she absolutely loves it!

She pawed my hand and bit lightly jua~ sooo cute~ haven't seen her so playful since she was a kitten~ (which is since early 2009).

hmm, hamsters are doing fine. still doesn't want to be held ): and jeez, they'll bite almost anything >.> from rubber ball, to metal running wheel holder D: crazy rodents. they don't bite people tho... :D

I'm GASing for a Squier Standard Telecaster. It's around $600 to order from starmakers. Might buy one in KL nanti. Gotta test two guitars out to compare with eachother... if possible, haul Foo, Mirul, Syafiq, Arip, Chiew along ^^ boleh visit the Comic Fiesta convention :D got cosplays yoooo~

and I'm REALLY wanting to build a pedal board :D it looks damn CLASS! the AC adapters are a problem tho, too bulky, cant fit under the board /: must rethink about the designs!


And I heard SMSA had a sociology day, some games, bazaar, and profit goes to the charity. wow. to the people involved, you guys are truly my heroes on that day. It's something for me to smile and look up to. god bless you all. wish I could help.

and I heard ada SMSA concert soon :D for the charity jua<333 I love the idea.

and and and and and and and

I miss my friends.

I have a feeling that I'm too gullible about some stuff. heh.

:))

a lot happened this week.

-my oldest sis got back from uk
-my other sis went to Melbourne
-amah balik
-new hair (pic soon)
-Big Muff pedal~
-met a bunch of new people at JIS (and reunited with a few SMSA students :D)
-oldest sis (Syaz) was back on the road

yeah, well, Syuhaidah's going to Melbourne for her Silver Awards. I'm not sure what are these gold, silver and bronze awards are S: students taking the Gold Awards are going to KENYA to help the people there! siuk! and these awards aren't free @_________@ cali harganya and it's mandatory >.>

Amah balik, it was... sad. It's her first time going on a plane, and she has to fly from Brunei->Sabah->Jakarta. It's difficult, I know. at first, for her to go back home, she has to pay by herself, and she wanted to go by boat, like how she came to Brunei. but my dad said he'll pay for her transport back home, and she wanted to take the plane >.> we gave her instructions, our phone numbers, some malaysian ringgit just in case.
Hope she's safe and is at her home sudah.

NEW HAIR! my hair before was kinda long. so I want to get a hair cut, and wanted try something different. my sis (Syu) accompanied me. most hair styles in the magazine was... flashy, korean style. I didn't like it. eventually we picked 2 hairstyle. then the guy told us it's not really nice for my type of hair and suggested me a different hairstyle. it looked nice, we both agreed.
and voila!

Big Muff pedal! its ehhhhhhhhhhhh.... sadly. gotta find a good amp that works with this. prolly a non-digital one.

my sis had to drive me and Fahmi today. it was at a rush hour in gadong highway. holy shit, berijap man. we nearly stopped in the middle of the highway >.<


then we have JIS.
we had to attend a 2-day orientation(well, kinda) to meet up with the jis students. wow, they just threw the new people into random groups, no chance. most of those people knew each other lagi. aiyahhhh.
we were also given a subject taster. we had to enter the class. it was fun.

[1st day]
we spent most of the day in Empire. from 9 or 10am till 3pm. everyone was thrown into different groups named into major world cup countries. me and Fahmi got Uruguay.
we had to finish 8 different activities together. like heavy teamwork lah. there was like 16 people in each group.

one of the activities is all 16 of us had to put at least one foot on a 50cm carpet without touching the ground, not covered by the carpet. we had to piggyback 2 girls in order to fit O:
another one is we had to go into the water to play water netball. that was awesomeeeee!

after the water sport, I didn't change my underwear till we got home, like 2 hours later. I didn't have the time to change *___* my butt was a bit wrinkly.

earlier in the day, we were to go to our respective classes to get to know the other students in the same set.

my first class was psychology. we were briefed on what psychologists do, and some famous psychologists like Sigmund Freud. and we were given questionnaires on mental illnesses.

my second class was geography. there was only 3 people in the class. that's it. that's my set. when we first went into the class, the tutor showed us a pic of a few pandas in captivity. he told us to guess what happened.
[Tutor=T, US=U]
T: What are they?
U: Pandas
T: where can you mostly find pandas?
U: China
T: what happened recently in China?
U: the earthquake
T: so what do you think happened to the pandas?
U: They broke out from zoo. ohhhhhhhhh. that's what happened...

it was fun. the tutor had this Irish like accent. not sure.


[2nd day]
we spent the whole day at school. some briefings and talks. then we also had this teamwork thing and further getting to know everyone.

in the teamwork, the whole year 12 was split into 10 groups. we had to make a tower out of newspaper. one of the girls in our group had an idea to build a tower on someone HAHA!
then we had to solve problems together.
and we had to do this test to make an ability chart

earlier in the day, we had the other 2 classes.

we had maths first. the lecture was really interesting! he brought in histories of people in, history of maths in arts, music and medicine.
one of the people was Florence Nightingale, who used maths in the medical field to help the sick and dying soldiers.
just wow.

then I entered the biology class as an official student for bio :DDD I PASSED THE TEST! YEARGH!!!! I will not disappoint you, Sir!
well, our first lesson in september is going to be about DNAs. he gave us sheets of apers with some origami guide. we had to make a double helix! pic of my double helix soon! it was damned awesome!
I will soon study about o-level DNAs myself :3


I met new people and new friends. they were welcoming :3 thanks a lot for the good 2-days guys :D

and the canteen sandi. the food plus drink is $4. mother hell. the styrofoam containers were full of food, but still, $4 D: the drink was.... a small carton.......
I will make my own food for break and lunch . I do not want to dish out $4 everyday!

UAHDKAADA!

shit, just noticed it's July sudah... I thought it's still June @_____@

and most of the students in year 12 were 16(going 17) or 17 years old. wtf. they're suprised that the new people were mostly going 18! hohohohoho!

<33333333333333
