CNY wishes and other news

Well, GongXiFaChai for for my readers who think he or she should celebrate this new year celebration. I'd celebrate it, but alas, it's not my celebration for me to celebrate. But who the frelck cares. I'm gonna celebrate is like it's mine. :P
Meh, a few parsecs ago, I was arguing the word "cute" with Lase herself. I forgot the meat of the argument, but it settled amiacably. :p
Erm, okay, now I'm gonna settle down and start blogging like there's no tomorrow. (Actually, there's a pasar malam just outside of the CC and it's really tempting...)
Gundam Seed on TV2: Oh yeah, people. I don't know if you people know it, but Gundam Seed is officially on Malaysian TV. I guess it took over the DBGT timeslot. (Thank god the horrid show is gone.) It's at 9.30am Sunday. And of course it's dubbed. But somehow the dub's kinda okay. Shin-chan's mum played Captain Ramiasu, if I remember correctly.
To tell ya the truth, I'm actually pro-dub when it comes to anime in Malaysia. At least it gives a chance for anime to flourish in Malaysia. Of course when I mean flourish I'm not looking at the anime dvd market that Malaysia has enjoyed so much. I'm looking forward for the time where new anime (and good) anime is well-known among the regular tv viewers, and not just the dvd-enabled consumer. I just wish that more anime comes to Malaysia. And I don't care if it's dubbed.
Kudos for TV2 for bringing Gundam Seed into the air. Somehow, I wished that TV3 should've been the one who picked it up, but I guess they're having their hands full with Detective Conan and Naruto (303 and 119 respectively, and both still ongoing.) Whatever which TV station or whatever anime titles that gets shown on TV, I'll be rooting for it.
Just as long as they don't do horrible edits on it. (Hollywood Mew Mew? CardcaptorSSS??)
Next on the news is...
I was broke: Hell yeah I was broke. No money in my pocket. Plus it was the start of the weekend. I couldn't have anything good to eat. I tried skimping my meals. Ate thosai for brunch/lunch, hoping that it could stave off the hunger. It didn't It's just ultra-thin pancake fer crying out loud! It's not a good energy-food!
So with my last pocket money, I bought wholemeal bread (they say it converts into energy much slower, which is a good thing), some kaya, and a pack of instant ramen for my weekend food. Thankfully I had my head overwhelmed with food, which is a good thing. So I just focused on work, and until the hunger pangs hit, I just ate the bread with kaya. Pa-thetic.
Yesh, yesh. I did call the Central Government up north. They'll send money on Monday. And now I got some money, so now I could guiltlessly burn it on pasar malam grub. Heh heh.
Oh come on, I'm not that stupid.
Upcoming boredom this CNY: Of course it's CNY, it means that most of the stores are gonna close up for the holidays. And some say, until Sunday. Which could only mean that boredom's gonna set in indefinitely.
But I guess I'm okay with it. I'm used to the skull-numbing boredom before. Of course not at a timeframe this long, but I could live. There's always some sort of savior in the horizon, mind you. There's always my relatives all around. I could just go there and just live off the free food until school reopens. Or there's Malacca, where I could just run down south and wreak havoc.
But I digress. I'd rather face boredom than doing illegal stuff.
Argh, the pasar malam tentacles are gripping at my ankles already! I couldn't help it anymore! Help! Helpp..........
Erster Pfosten!
