This is a great story sent by a friend of mine, read it throught! =D
==========================
Once upon a time, there was a king. The king liked one of his followers very much because he was very wise and always gave very useful advice. Therefore the king took him along wherever he went.
One day, the king was bitten by a dog, the finger was injured and the wound was getting worse. He asked the follower if that was a bad sign. The follower said, Good or bad, hard to say'. In the end, the finger of the king was too bad that had to be cut. The king asked the follower again if that was a bad sign. Again, the follower gave the same answer, 'Good or bad, hard to say'. The king became very angry and sent the follower to prison.
One day, the king went hunting in the jungle. He got excited when he was on the chase of a deer. Deeper and deeper he went inside the jungle. In the end he found himself lost in the jungle. To make thing worse, he got captured by the native people lived inside the jungle.
They wanted to sacrifice him to their god. But when they noticed that the king had one finger short, they released him immediately as he was not a perfect man anymore and not suitable for sacrifice. The king managed to get back to his palace after all. And he finally understood the follower's wise quote, 'Good or bad, hard to say'. If he hadn't lost one finger, he could have been killed by the native people.
He ordered to release the follower, and apologized to him. But to the king amaze, the follower was not mad at him at all. Instead, the follower said, 'It wasn't a bad thing that you locked me up.' Why? Because if the king hadn't locked the follower up, he would have brought the follower along to the jungle. If the native found that the king was not suitable, they would have used the follower. Again, the quote 'Good or bad, hard to say' stands.
=========================================
The moral of the story:
Everything that happens in this world, there is no absolute good or bad. Sometimes good things turned out to be bad things eventually, while bad things become a gain.
Whatever good things that happen to you, enjoy it, but don't have to hold too tight to it, treat it as a surprise in your life.Whatever bad things that happen to you, don't have to feel too sad or despair, in the end, it might not be a total bad thing after all..
If one can understand this, he or she will find life much easier.

GACC Plans + Uber tight schedule
MMU Melaka, Malaysia's 2nd biggest and very happening event GACC is going to be held this weekend. EPICness within.
However i had received and noticed several ppl cancelling the trip due to H1N1. Probably reason because Melaka is quite heavily infected with those virus.
However i had received and noticed several ppl cancelling the trip due to H1N1. Probably reason because Melaka is quite heavily infected with those virus.
Furthermore, without seiyuu coming to the event this year, people wont really missed out alot this year. Thus it makes more ppl deciding not to go. But GACC has always been EPIC, be it with or without seiyuu. We're going to enjoy the event not forcing urself to go. What's the point if they bringing a seiyuu but u dont even know right? If it is, its more like DaiCon already. GACC is a very warm and happening event where ppl and cosplayers get to have fun and gathering, as simple as that.
But i cant cancel cause i needa meet up my bro, pass his stuff and get my MONEH back(helped him buy book), bus ticket and accommodation paid, costume make. X'D And it is also gonna be last event gathering with my friends that are flying oversea for studies. So i need to make it! And also another 'reason'. You will probably know on GACC itself. ah, i had just been confirmed that i have something else to do on GACC too. haiz~ seriously got tied up already. T_T

CosFest VIII Event Trip Coverage - Part 2
And so the EPIC journey continues...
======First Day at SG======
Day 2, 10th July 2009, FRIDAY
I slept at 5.30am, Allen woke me up at 6.45am. Quickly wash up, clean up and head out at 7.00am. Yes, my bus is 7.30am. That time i'm still having quite a bad headache due to the alchohol. 1 hour sleep obviously cant clear off the aftermath well.
We're both quiet in the car, but in our heart there is this tension going on whether or not i will MISS another transport again. There is a slight traffic jam but lucky it isnt terrible. I reached Pudu at 7.25am. Without grabbing a breakfast for myself, since my stomach aint feeling fell, i quickly get into the platform. The bus is already there, got up and 5 mins later, it took off.
I'm off to SG by bus ALONE and FIRST TIME. I grabbed my sleep on the bus sitting on the very first row. The bus stopped at Johor around 10am and i grabbed a simple bread + choco milk to fill my stomach. I was so scared i did puke due to the aftermath and rushing around earlier.
fuck i want to write coding and i lost 9 paragraphs, need rewrite again fuck
At 12.25pm reached Johor's Custom checkpoint. I'm glad i dint get lost since this is my first time being there lol. The place is very big and nice. 8D Took abit of pics and hop back the bus.
Around 12.35pm reaches Woodlands Custom checkpoint. YAY i'm finally at Singapore!!
But if you think my epic journey ends here, you are so darn WRONG. Its only the beginning. LOL
So i follow ppl and get into the checkpoint, dint know i need to fill the embarking form so go and did one. Took some time over here as I donno how to fill them. T_T Then went to declair and scan luggage, get out there to the bus stop. Most passengers drop off at Woodlands, but Allen said the bus will also go to Beach Road, so i suppose to hop it up again. To my surprise, i think i witnessed my bus took off.
HOW? my bus LEFT ME. T__T
Luckily Sg's transportation system is super efficient and user friendly. That time was around 1pm. I hop on the bus stated Queens Road. Bus fare is $1 but all i had is $5 bill. Luckily i get a kind girl to exchange some coins for me. So i was happy get on a bus to my destination. Allen told me Beach Road is near Bugis and taught me how to get there on a map. So i started to sight seeing in the bus. Ya know, the first thing i realize in SG is that the school uniform is of various colours! 8D I saw brown, green, blue, purple, etc colour. And i think i saw nurse type uniform for secondary student.
Haha, yea, by now i think some of you realize something.. YES, i took the WRONG bus LOL. oTL half way tru in the bus i realize it is Queens Road bus i took, not Beach Road. argh~ *&%$#@!
A little panic i am, dropped off at Queens Road station. Looking around i found Harbour Front station so without any hesitation i hop on it. $1.90 but since i dont have coins so its $2 for me. The journey is very very long, it took me around 1 hour to reach Harbour Front. Meanwhile i discovered Convent stuents! (haha, i'm always hype up on discovering other Convent students XD)
Upon arriving at Harbour Front bus station around 2.30pm, i have no idea where i'm suppose to go and that Sam told me they're at Marche eating. So i look around and took the bridge and croosover to the opposite buildings. I saw Star Cruise Virgo!! Star Cruise had stopped stopping at Malaysia for years now. T__T Ok, continue i shall. When the bridge finished, i came to this junction: left to Harbour Front centre and right to some office thingi place. I think there is a higher chance Sam should be in the Centre so i went left. So i randomly walk and found the info counter, but no directory so i SOS-ed Sam. I texted her since i cant call without roaming, can only text. "I reached already, saved me."
Yea, my mouth is full with gold that i'm so shy to ask where Marche is located lol. 15 mins later SW called me where was I. I was actually at Harbour Front MRT entrance, but apparently they're at Vivo city's MRT entrance. 10 mins later i finally saw familiar faces! \(*_*)/ SW and Shio came pick up this pathetic lost child at the corner. T__T
So SW guide me back to Marche. Actually i really donno how to get there myself, seeing there are actually several elevator ride and few turnings.
At 3.00pm sharp i finally joined back my gang! YAY. But that time i'm so so blur due to the culture shock, half speed faster elevator and the things happened since Woodlands. SW said its actually quite amazing i can take bus all alone and arrive here without getting lost, for a first timer visitor. I'm so blur i donno what to talk that time. Shio called it "International Roaming" not activated yet. LOLOL.
When i arrived they're almost finish eating thou, so i basically just helping them to eat up the extra food there. A Polar puff SW got me, a piece of remaining Pizza, and Pizza Kun rice pizza(sorry SW i dint eat it in the end ><)
Actually the food there quite expensive lol so i also dont dare to eat. SW bring me ordered a Rosti, but i nvr go get it since they get me food already lol. Funny thing SW said:
SW: no no, you need go get it, cause that chef CAN recognize ur face one ar~
me: oh, ok (still having trouble for international roaming)
but in the end we dint go get it, then i ask her..
me: if i dint get it, isnt the chef gonna recognize me?
SW: Nevermind one, the chef CANT recognize you one~ so many ppl around..just sneak out later me: arent you said earlier he CAN?
LOL. she is so contradic la. XDDD
After that we head up and take abit of pics around Vivo City.We went to see sea. Then we went nearby the harbour where we can see the Sentosa opposite us. We sit down at the bench of wooden floor there and enjoying the sea wind. Crazy girl Shio did crazy stuff and start singing there~ Took some pic b4 we head back into Vivo City. We went to Daiso! Always $2 =3 Actually it is slightly cheaper in SG. The exchange rate makes it RM4.92 only while Malaysia's Daiso is RM5, 8 cents cheaper LOL. We also went to Discovery, inside got alot of nice jacket(yes i'm quite of a jacket/vest fanatic XD)
Around 5.30pm, we go to MRT and head back to Tampines to find Shiro while SW go back Jurong and Chris back to Little India to his hotel. The MRT here is super efficient! its 3 - 4 mins per train, the frequency is around 4 or 5 times more than Malaysia, and that it is very on time. We reach Tampines quite early so we sat there waiting for Shiro. One thing about MRT in SG is that it is so frequent to the point when the last passenger steps on the elevator, another train arrives. After 10 mins when we're ready to leave the platform, we spotted the passenger is getting less and faster get on it when the next train arrives. (Damn sampat here lol) EXACTLY the last passenger get on elevator the train arrives, super accurate man~
We waited around 15 mins when Shiro finally arrives about 6.40pm. His hair was much shorther compare to last year December when he came to Comic Fiesta and stayed with us (and this is how we know each other. XD) From there we walked to his apartment (forgot which block ade), his house is at 12th floor LOL. But very windy at the balcony there and you can overlook Tampines MRT station and Tampines mall from there.
We settled down, bathed then went out catch our dinner. We had chicken rice, not bad. =3
Then we headed back and start chiong-ing props finally. Sam and Shio were styling her Lambo wig while i making the 'flames' for my Gokudera's 5 rings. Sam also help me sew + tape my blue shirt then dozzed off. Shio helped me touch up the boxes and clip all of them on the white stripes. Cause i need ppl to help me pin them up and measurer the length of the stripes. We finished 2 rows of boxes at 1am. I finished making the buckle head of my white belt while Shio help me to make the skull cannon's flame. Shio took some pics of Sam sleeping then dozzed off too at 2am. I was sewing the red belts/stripes on the Skull Cannon and add some details on the cannon. Shiro went out around 12.30am to meet some friend. By the time i sleep, i think around 3.00am or later, he hasnt back yet.
=======Part 1 finished, part 2 continues another entry=======
Another long entry~ Really gonna make several parts of it haha~ O_o Another 1.6k words just for Day 1. =_=
This time is from 4.50am till 7.10am

-Skull cannon process at 7.30am = 10% (only have a frame)
-16+2 spare red boxes = 20% (only finished making the silver edges without painting them yet)
-Belt = 0% nothing is make at that time
======EPIC Journey starts======
Day 1 : 9th July 2009, THURSDAY night, a LONG night
Since i still have class from 8-10am, after class i rush back room and start continue to chiong props. I hot glue alot of stuff(like as usual, sorry sam xD) I was so confident that i have another pack of glue refill till at night it actually finished! O_o 6 of them + initial 2 sticks. Get dinner and free drinks for my poor slavejuniors Elaine and San up my room and continue the work.
Props status at 9.55pm (took off at 10pm):
-Dynamites done earlier
-Skull cannon = 90% (all main stuff is done except detail colouring, fire and abit on the red stripes) Spray 4 times in half hour's time, it is a MIRACLE the paint dint come off at all! Amazing. *__*
-16+2 boxes = 80% (silver edges done and painted, skull heads moled but not stick on yet)
-White belt = 0% (nothing was done again, can still continue at SG)
-Sky blue shirt modification = 0% (lol no time, i brought the clothes & cloth i bought to SG lol)
My room is having a TORNADO lvl 8 LOL, seriously no time to clean. Packing done in 10 minutes time, props are SWEPT into plastic bags. orz
My friend who suppose to arrange transport for me as i had triple duplet confirmed with him was delayed. He suppose to get car for me but cant so get a taxi. He said he gonna call a cab once i hang up. Stupidly he only call when i met up with him. and i thought i have 10 minutes (for the driver to drive to my college) to properly double check anything i left out especially the SG dollars and passport. At this very moment Sam called me they missed the train at KL Sentral. Funny thing is that they assumed it was 10pm where its actually 9.35pm. I was pissed they nvr check it, so they got on a cab n rush down to Seremban to meet me (i boarding here).
The cab is very late, 10 mins for Sotong to wait me(which he sud have called the moment i hang the phone), 10 mins for driver to come. I was jokingly telling Sotong that Sam they missed train, later i missed it also. but this CAME TRUE! I reached Nilai KTM station, waited 25 mins and the train suppose to come but it aint. Then I saw our SG train passed by me. If the SG train came b4 the usual train, obviously i will missed it cause a station cant accomodate 2 trains at the same time. I was panicked but it obviously wont stop for me.
I devastated and called Sam if they can get the train to stop for longer which i know its impossible. Train finally came, hop on, waiting and praying i wont missed it. Sam called they reaches Seremban already and the train came. Uberly panicked. then i got a call that COMPLETELY broke my heart:"we're in train now, but it took off already.."
Silent remains on my side, i'm on the way to Seremban, reached the station only 5 mins late. but it aint important anymore, MY TRAIN LEFT ME. T_T
There is actually 1 more last train from Seremban back to KL, but everyone ask me to try get a bus. I hurriedly walked to bus station nearby hoping to get ticket, alone, walking a long path in midnight. Arrived at bus station, checked, but the only bus will reach at a ridiculous 3am at Langkir, Johor. Bus to KL no more opperating at midnight. DOOM I AM. i called Allen, he fetch me all the way from Cheras-Seremban-Cheras back to his home. [If he was fetching Sam them, he wouldnt need to travel to the same place and saved their money too] Its 40 mins drive from his house, i waited. Imagine i'm STRANGED ALONE at the station MIDNIGHT, it sucks. A lot of things came in my mind: scared, terrified, dissapointed, sad, lonely. I nearly wanted him to just drive me back college, sleep for the day and go Daicon at Cyberjaya, Malaysia instead.
Around 1am Allen arrived, drove me to Pudu and manage to get myself earliest bus on Friday morning to SG. Yes i'm so EMO i hardly utter a word the whole trip back his house. Then we headed back Allen's house at 2.30am, settled down, continue with my props. Allen brings in his collection: 3 bottles of White wine, Rum and something else. We had the Australian white wine while i continue make props and him helping to fold a diamond for me. The white wine is only 30% alchohol i think, but just 1 glass i go tipsy already lol, i had 2. =_= He accompanied me and chat while i unpack all my luggage and arrange them properly, do a little touch up on the props ONLY. He taught me abit on how to get around SG once i drop off and borrowed me a map.
I slept at 5.15am, my bus is 7.30am =_=
=======Part 1 finished, part 2 continues another entry=======
Damn i write it as long as a story! i think just 1 night's coverage is longer than the whole trip coverage by Sam. O_o
1.5k words just for a night's story. My goodness. =_=
writes from 12am till 4.20am lol
ok, i'm giving myself excuse by slacking away from my assignment. I'm so so die LOL.
Ok, lets start it off SLOWLY, yea, the whole trip is so epic i think i will write 3 parts of it on separate days, i'll see how it goes~

Cosplay plan?
Recently i had been inspired by some male cosplayers. Yea, biologically MALE CROSSPLAYERS. Why ah why, they are so godly feminine and pwetty than a real girl. *___* I'm jealous, i'm envy, i'm totally amused.
Therefore, although it is very rare, and to the point it is very shocking to even myself, i think i MIGHT try out some FEMALE cosplays next time. XD
But i wont guarantee it will looks nice thou, or even moe or cute. >__<
I donno when i'll did it, or even actually execute what i had said, but there's no harm to stay tune over this? You guys do remind me to do this FEMALE cosplay if i tend to forget and continue doing male cosplays. X'D
Btw, what FEMALE cosplays do you think i can do?? I had done Yuuki from VK(replacing friend), Apache from Bleach(also replacing friend) and Cho Chang from HP. All of them are NOT nice to me actually, i really failed to become a girl LOL. hahahahaha~ T__T
Do suggest! Any of them you think fits me. Since i'm quite short n small size, i think can fit a few kua~ DO NOT gimme those with big boobies one ok~no super moe i think moe is quite a good new challenge for me? XD Ganas/Aggressive girl is more suitable for my personality though.
I MIGHT go for the one you suggest oh. Cause seriously right now my mind is blank LOL. Assignment tension. oTL
Journal/blog/cover up that I still OWE:
Cosfest VIII trip and event coverup
-YES i still friggin OWE everyone this entry! and that GACC in Melaka, Malaysia is next week >__<>
Comic Fiesta entry back at December 2008?!
-orz i totally failed, to the point this old entry is still not written. ;A; Since everytime i have holidays i'm back hometown and no internet+PC at home so i cannot utilise the free time to write. >_<
