I'm so sorry to say that I haven't posted about my Kuala Selangor Trip. It was fun and yes, I took lots of pictures, but with the projects and work from school I found myself barely having the time to work and play. So for those wondering why I haven't posted it, here's the reason.
Anyway, I assure you that it shall be done during the weekend and I hope you guys can be a little patient with me. Thank you.

This Is a Really Short Post
Yes, I apologize for saying that this is a short post, and in terms of our English essay marking scheme, I can say that it will not be more than 100 words, probably not even 50. Anyways, I was going through Facebook when I saw someone writing about a protein named tintin.
The person wrote about the protein's full name, which was quite a mouthful. And I'm sorry for the really short post.
Oh yeah, here's the protein's partial name: Methionylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphenylalanylalanylglutaminylleucyllysylglutamylarginyllysylglutamylglysylalanylphenylalanylvalylprolylphenylalanylyalylthreonylleucylglcycylaspartylprolylglicylisoleucyglutamylglutaminlserylleucyllysylisoleucylaspartylthreonylleucylisoleucylglutamylalanylglyclyalanylaspartylalanylleucyglutamylleucylgluycylisoleucylproluylphenylalanyserylaspartyprolylleucelalanylaspartylglycylprolylthreonylisolleucyglutaminylasparaginylalanythreonylleucylarginylalanylphenylalanylalanylaanylglycylvalylthreonylprolylalanylglutaminylcysteinylpheylalanylglglutamylmethionylleucyalanylleucylisoleucylarginylglutaminyllysylhistidylprolyuthreonylisoleucylprolylisoleucylglycylleucylleucylmethionyltyrosylalanylasbaraginylleucylvalylphenylalanylsparaginyyllysylglycylisoleucylaspartylglutamylphenylalanylyltyrosylalanylglutaminylcysteinylglutamyllysylvalylglycylvalylspartylserylvalylleucylvallalanylaspartylvalylprolylvalvlglutaminylglutamylserylalanylprolylphenylalalrginylglutaminylalanylalanylleucylarginylhistidylasparaginylvalylalalprolylisoleucylphenylalanylisoleucylcysteinylprolyprolylaspartylalanylaspartylaspartyspartyleucylleucylarginylglutaminylisoleucylalanylseryltyroslglycylarginylglycyltyrosylthreonyltyrosylleucylleucylserylarginlalanylglycylvalylthreonylglycylalanylglutamylasparaginylarginylanylalanylleucylprolylleucylaspaaginylhistidylleucylvalylalanyllysylleucyllysylglutamyltyrosylasparagimylalanylalanyprolylprolylleucylglutaminylglycylphenlalanylglycylisoleyucylserylalanylprolylaspartylglutaminylvalyllysylalanylalanylisoleucylalspartylalanylglycylalanylalanylglycylalanylasoleucylserylglycylserylalanylisoleucylbalyllysylisoleucylisoleucylglutamylglutaminylhistidylasparaginylisoleucylglutamylpronylglttamyllysylmethionylluecylalanylalanyoeucyllysylvalylphenylalanylvalylglutamilylprolylmethionyllysylalanylalanylthreo

nylarginylserine.
Yes, I repeat: It is just a partial name, probably less than 1/50 of the original word.
Well, tintin's full chemical name has 189,819 letters.
Those with hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia would faint. Oh, in case that you didn't know, hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the phobia of long words. Talk about irony.
Hey, I did say it was a short post :\

Damnit, Panadol™, You Win This Round
Fever. As I said it approximately 2-3 hours ago, I am down with fever, and my parents had bought me Panadol™. My arch nemesis, I could call him. Disgusting and white, hard and gigantic, this pill about 2 cm across has bought me great pain.
Mum bought the pill for me at 8.39 PM. She gave it to me at 9 PM. And then, much arguing, debating and pill smashing later, I decided to take the pill at 9.24 PM. And now it's 9.34 PM and I have just finished the last of the horrid pill.
Yes, I'm weird: I can't swallow pills. I'm a little ashamed about this, but I believe that there are many people like me, including Jarren and if I'm not mistaken, his brother. Now now, don't go laughing at them. People each have their phobias. Like I could laugh at you if you jumped three meters up into the air upon seeing a cockroach, or whimper and hide under a table when a spider dangles from the ceiling; but alas, I choose not to.
For those confused at why a little pill like that could scare me, let me explain in detail what my mind is telling me:
The pill, coming into the mouth. It's going to lodge into my throat! I'm going to choke! Noooo! I can break it into pieces, yes! Bring out the pill splitter! Wham! Die, pill die! Oh no, the pill now has sharp edges. It's going to slice my throat, rip my tonsils out! It's going in my mouth! Damn water can't help. No, no, no, no!
So, gulp goes the pill. And that's just half of it. Meh, what can I say. Pills are bad for me. And they should be for you. Unless of course you're not afraid. Why can't there be nice pills?
Stupid Panadol™ and their stupid pills. Why can't they make liquid for ADULTS?!

I Have Semi-Fever!
Yes, you heard it right. I'm sick at the moment. It all started out yesterday when my nose got funny. I can't stop sneezing and then there was loads of mucus everywhere (Hey, don't put on the "Eww, disgusting" face. I can't control my mucus). Oh and there was the stupid sore throat. It buggered me for 2 days straight.
In the evening I had a slight headache. Nothing but a small nap couldn't cure. But no-o-o. This guy's tough. He chose to hang on with me for the entire night, bothering me and my sleep (and computer games). Not to mention I had the chills during sleep and was covered in a sheen of sweat, even in an air conditioned room.
Now don't be alarmed: I'm not sick. Yet. So the next morning my headache had lessen (which was a relief) but my nose still wasn't improving. Stupid runny nose. If this continues, I bet my nose could win the marathon. Anyways, during the fourth period, I was feeling, well, sick again. This time, my headache was accompanied by the dull pain in my bones. When this symptom came up, I knew what was going to await me: fever.
Yes, the horrible brain-burning, bone-aching, body-weakening illness. Fever is basically the body fighting against some infection or bacteria, but why my immune systems would try to fry my brain was still a mystery to me. They probably enjoy some barbecue. I have skipped tuition because of this, and what's worse, I have a trip to Kuala Selangor tomorrow. If this keeps up, I won't be able to go and my friends will kill me on Monday.
So, I just have to drink lots of water, lots of 100 Plus, lots of water and sleep and sleep and rest and rest and apply Kool Fever! on my forehead. Hopefully this will pass and I won't end up waking and feeling like a zombie tomorrow morning. Slim chance but hey, I'll take any chance now.

This was one of the few least disgusting pictures that I could find on Google Images. Believe me, the others must have mistaken my search of "Sore Throat" for "Throat Cancer". I must say, he looks like Charlie Sheen.

Not exactly this chill, but you get the picture. Now imagine hellfire behind the door. That's how I feel right now.

Aww this poor little kid. That's right: fevers are bad...
...Well, maybe not this fever.

Yes, I am sure I do not want this guy after me. I saw what he could do with wires: it's creepy...

You know how many pictures I have to find about 100 Plus? It seems like either every website has a malware, virus or the webpage was complete smoked.
And I find it so amazing that nobody, and I repeat, nobody noticed that I was sick at school today. What good friends I have!

Civilization at last!
Finally, after 4 days of burning hot weather at my hometown in Muar, I am finally back home. AT LAST, I might add. Freedom, my computer and my aircond awaits me!
For those of you wondering why I wasn't on msn or facebook, I went back to Muar last Saturday and only arrived back home today. The last few days could only be described as boring, hot, boring, tiring and boring. Did I mention it was boring? Yes? Nevermind...
The reason I state that it was so boring was because I was cut off from civilization. Mainly, technology, or more accurately, the computer. Internet at my uncle's house is good (mainly he uses it for his laptop to do schoolwork; he is a school principle) and the download speed is AMAZING. I can't tell you how many anime and games I've downloaded there because I didn't have the patience to count them. I can tell you there are more than 20 videos in just 3 and a half days!
Unfortunately, the computer I'm using to download my videos is a piece of junk. Literally. Because of the computer's inability to read certificates (GOD KNOWS WHAT THAT MEANS!) I can't login to Facebook. I can't login to MSN. Skype will just crash the computer if I download it. Which means that I absolutely cannot contact anyone besides my family or unless I use my phone. Marvelous.
Adding insult to injury, the computer's RAM and graphic card makes a Game Boy Color look nicer than a PSP. Come on, you can't even play Mario on that comp! I tried playing Pokemon and the entire thing hanged. As punishment for being so lousy, I left the computer on for the 4 days I was there. Seeing as it didn't complain, I let it download 24/7.
Besides the boring computer, there were fun times as well. While I was brushing my teeth one morning, toothpaste accidentally flew into my eye. I don't know how, I don't know why, I don't know what, where and when (OK, I know it was Darlie, I was at the toilet and it was in the morning), but a small but alkaline glob of toothpaste flew and lodged itself happily at the corner of my eye. Suffice to say, I went screaming: "MY EYE, IT BURRRNSSS!" or something like that while Darlie Extra White mistook my eye for my teeth and proceeded to clean it. Needless to say my eye was very clean. Darlie does it.
So what else did I do there? Besides celebrating a Chinese festival (you wouldn't know...) and tormenting the computer? Nothing much really, besides lots of sleeping. And walking. And downloading videos. And enduring the burning sun which would cause any unfortunate human being to explode and incinerate.
All in all, it was boring. And I just realized I have not finished my Moral project. Oh well, time for last minute rushing again as usual. But, at least I am back. And I get my computer. Oh ho ho... Back to my animes...
