Coming back from Vietnam

When the Malaysian Team came back to Malaysia from Vietnam after the ASEAN age group chess tournnament, reporters were at the airport to interview the malaysian gold medallists. We were able to grab 3 gold medals which all came from the Malaysian girls.

I did not win and actually did very badly for your information :(. Anyway i found this video which was from TV 3, reporting on Malaysia's chess performance. The complete malaysian team is shown when we shouted "Malaysia Boleh!". If you look closely you can actually see me :D. Other than the Gold medallists, my other teammates and myself was not interviewed because we did not win anything :( . It was pretty disappointing for some of them who almost obtain medals only to come back empty handed. I was not really disappointed because honestly... I never stood a chance but the others were pretty close.

Going to Vietnam

Hello,

I'm going to Vietnam on Saturday (June 6) and coming back on June 16. The purpose of my visit is to play chess in the 10th ASEAN+ AGE-GROUP CHESS CHAMPIONSHIPS where I will be representing Malaysia in the Under-20 age group. First time I have ever played chess in a competition outside of Malaysia, so this will be a nice experience for me.

The winner will be given the FIDE Master title, other than the glory and bragging rights that come with winning :D. I do not expect to win at all though, but maybe... i have a one in a million chance to win ;). I am seeded 16 that means theoritically I am weaker than the 15 players ahead of me so logically my chances to win are slim. Nevertheless, my aim is do better than my seeding which is in itself not easy to do.

One problem I am facing is that i have to finish my additional mathematics project in one day (Today!). Don't think I'm gonna finish, just hope teacher will spare me and not minus marks or something. Well, I gotta start packing and try to finish my project... bye

Whats in a name?

Okay! How many times have you heard of this question? How many times many times have you thought " A name is a name, it doesn't need a fucking two page dumbass explanation"? How many times have you wanted to see Obama arm wrestling with Najib? Well, i have a couple of times.

I mean seriously, a name is a name! What more can it be? Signifies life? Signifies personality? What the fuck? Is your IQ so low to write a bullshit report on names? or Retarded? weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Why do i smell so nice?

As written in the title above, I put in front of you a question which even baffles expert from every reach of the globe. Why is Tariq so incredibly wangi? A study has been done by a Nobel Laureate of medicine from the University of Harvard. It seems that unlike other people, Tariq's armpit does not emit chemicals which irritate the nose but instead releases a form of ester that which gives the receiver a temporary feeling of terrestrial heaven. We have finally cracked the puzzling question!

Ok, some of you weirdos will think this super cool post is gross. What do I have to say? Relax! You narrow minded people... hehehehehehehe

Diversity Wins Britain's Got Talent !

Hello everybody,

If some of you are wondering what Britain's Got Talent is, it is a talent show where people of any form of talent will compete with each other. Similar to American Idol or Akademi Fantasia, only that this show is not only about singing. This show is not broadcast in Malaysia so if you would like to watch it you can check out Youtube.

For those of you who know about it, you must have heard of Susan Boyle, who WOW-ed the world with her singing. They even write about her in the local newspapers here in Malaysia. She was considered the strong favourite from the beginning to the end to win, but she lost to Diversity, a dance group. Interestingly, there were 2 dance groups in the finals, Diversity and Flawless. In the end, Diversity "outdanced" Flawless.

Continuing on, Diversity is an all-male group in which two of them are boys and the rest are adults. In their opening act in the finals, they formed the scorpion robot which appeared in transformers (very nice :D ). Here is their Britain's Got Talent Final full performance -------->
