Novels and Stuff

Tada~

Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu (The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi) and Suzumiya Haruhi no Tameiki (The sigh of Suzumiya Haruhi)

Got them from Kinokuniya, and had a hard time hunting it down, including the staff people there even though the system helped to guide us to where it was kept but it was hard looking for it as it was placed next to some kid books and gamebooks in the Japanese section. Thanks to the staff of Kinokuniya for their hardwork. Btw, bought this a month ago and barely completed the 1st chapter. T_T

And going around PJ (Petaling Jaya) hunting for something I want but it was so hard to find, I ended up using the internet to look for it and at last, I found it.


Its a bokuto, or bokken as most people know it. Its a wooden katana for training in the art of iaijutsu/battojutsu(sword drawing but battojutsu does more slashes than iaijutsu where one draws the sword and slash once) and kenjutsu(sword art).

Price-wise, not bad considering getting from a dojo nearby cost me nearlt rm100 but this, I bought from a second hand store where I heard a closing dojo desperately sell it away and cost me rm22. Cheers!

And this also!

Another MG kit to add to my collection. Its Strike Noir from Seed Destiny CE. The dual hand-gun is an attraction to me. *drools* And the build quality, very good, as good as the 1st Aile Strike as its the same structure except a few modification to the cockpit area hatch access, the wrist, knee area on the leg and a different backpack. Rest, its the same, with a different colour *thinking of spraying it back to Aile Strike colour* XD.

I had to modify the backpack a little as I do not like how it hangs and its loose, so used a blade and start carving out pieces of plastic from the runners and made a locking mechanism to the original axle of the backpack.

Thats all for now. I bought a few more Hotwheels cars, and found my old all-time favourite car, a Go-Kart!

Paintball Part 2 @ wounds

Well, now, you'll see what happens after a week after being shot by paintball pellets that fly near 300 feet per second.


Looks like the leg is rotting away. But believe me, its bruise. This was a close shot.


Side shot from afar.


Well, it will wound you also. Notice the red part, it bleed there.


Far shot.


This? Just for the fun of putting it up.

These are from me and my cousins who went with me, but not the other 3 friends who came along. One had a very nice roundish bruise which looks cool but she said we were sadist. Owh well. XD

Next paintball game will be after CNY. Who wants bruises, come and get it. XD

Paintballing in Petaling Jaya, 2008

I do not know what to post here so I'll just give you all the contact number for the place and location.

Astaka Field. Just drive in before the church if you are coming from Federal Highway, first left and drive straight in. I roughly know how to get there. If you're coming from SS11, before the 1 traffic light going to Amcorp Mall, there will be a right turning. If this is confusing, figure it out yourself. *hint*Right after Armada Hotel*hint*

Contact: Mr. Wei @ 0123370775

I just found their website at http://www.my-npl.org/mapaac/index.php

The markers(guns) and good and nice. No jams or whatsoever, apart from being abit heavy compare to TT Sports at Subang. Pellets wise, donno la. XD. I brought 5 of them back for keeping. :D

Field, good condition. No holes, muds or wadsoever apart from unburst pellets.

Pain: Well, no pain = no fun = no intention to shoot someone = hide more = more scare of getting hit = running around and shoot = getting hit = getting paint splatter = bruise. But thats the bests part.

No complain. People there are friendly too especially Wei himself. His a very cool dude.




The ammos, or called pellets. And they hit hard.


Playarzz!!!!!




Read it carefully.


Almost like a real gun, with safety pin also.


The mask.


Barrel sock as a 2nd safety device.


Guns.


And one more thing, wait, more than one.

Listen to the marshals/staffers who are in the field with you all!!!!!
NEVER take off your mask in the field!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And, have fun. :D

And, REMEMBER, NEVER NEVER NEVER TAKE YOUR FACEMASK OFF IN THE FIELD. ELSE RISK LOSING YOUR EYES, MOUTH OR WHOLE FACE.

BTW, if you have Google Earth, here is the coodinates.
