Vertigo

Wednesday, November 14, 2007

Taken from Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary

ver·ti·go
Pronunciation: 'v&rt-i-"gO
Function: noun
Inflected Form: plural -goes or -gos
1 : a disordered state which is associated with various disorders (as of the inner ear) and in which the individual or the individual's surroundings seem to whirl dizzily —see OBJECTIVE VERTIGO, SUBJECTIVE VERTIGO; —compare DIZZINESS
2 : disordered vertiginous movement as a symptom of disease in lower animals; also : a disease (as gid) causing this

For the first time in my life I was affected by vertigo. This is a feeling I hope I never suffer from the rest of my life. With 6 hours of sleep, I went to the gym and then the pool. When I was out of the pool the world tilted its axis and I was spinning around and puking all over the place. Fun huh?
Symptoms include

  • Sweating
  • Erratic eye movement
  • Blur visions
  • Nausea and vomitting
Uh-huh all check. Whatever I ate from thereon ended up on the sidewalks. That's 2 days ago. Now I still feel slight dizziness. Mild vertigo the doctor tells me. Gotta imagine what severe cases are like...ughh.

Thanks for the HG Chaos guys. I'm now 30% into completion and when I do I'll post it here. For those of you who don't know what that is...here's a pic


Why only 30%? It's not as easy to make as you think if you wanna do it the right and professional way. I'll do a post about it next time.

A Christmas Thingy

Saturday, November 10, 2007

A Christmas Thingy (AcT) will be this year's CF musical and it replaces NoC if any of you still remember. I've been given 2 roles this time around; Assistant Props Director or something like that and I'll be acting as a bartender. A dancing bartender D: But no dialog. Should work out fine I guess. Being the bartender means I'll be involved in a STOMP scene as well. I got offered a SINGING role but I declined. I can't sing for nuts. Much more comfortable being in the background. The stage need filler characters, no?


Bottles filled with rice means Cha Cha rythm


Vijay and Stef, grand overlords of the STOMP scene


doing some choreography work

I know a lot people actually look forward to our yearly musical plays. These things take a lot of effort and practice. And I've got carpentry work for the props as well.
It's slated tentatively for the 19th of December. So come see it. Hopefully we'll be as good as the years before. For more posts on AcT go to Andrew's because he's the guitarist for the play.

Beautiful controller. Thanks to the 19 people who got me this. I'll boom it till the neighbours complain. Haha.

Top 5 Wants of 2007. Sessy.

Saturday, October 20, 2007

I'm back from camp burnt and bruised. Even got an ant-bite on my left eyelid which is now swollen, make me look like I just got sucker-punched. Hopefully it'll go away by this weekend.
Two more months till our favourite time of the year; starts with a C and ends with an S. Probably the best time of the year when the temperature falls and daylight gets shorter. I compiled a list "Wants" from this whole year as the coming season is a season of giving. Of course I'm not expecting any of you to get me these, they're just what I would get if I had so much money I could wipe my ass with RM50 bills. Here it is:

1. Nokia N81



After that incident which my 6131 was taken away from me, I was left with using Kiwen's old SE phone, which is laggy but weirdly has bluetooth. So anyway time to hunt for a new phone. Looking throught GSMArena.com, I found this little thinga majigga. This nifty phone had 2mp camera, 2.4in 16mil colour screen, 8gigs of internal storage, is wifi-enabled, and best of all plays like an N-Gage. That's right, it supports N-Gage games and the bar on the top of the phone is actually a gaming button. The silver ring around the controls is touch sensitive and you can scroll through pictures simply by brushing your fingers along the ring. It isn't released yet in Malaysia but when it does, it'll probably cost above RM2xxx. Sure the iPhone looks really good with it's flashy interface and all, but I'm not too keen to jump on the Apple bandwagon just yet.

Read more about it at GSMArena. Sessy phone.

2. Creative Zen

As you know from my previous post, my Zen Micro is dying as we know it. What better player to replace it than this new player from Creative. The Zen is a flash-based player with 4gb, 8gb and 16gb variants. It also supports SDHC memory cards, expending the memory to over 32gb. It supports almost all the audio formats known to man, but how many of us actually have songs encoded in AAC, Audible or even WAV? We all know we should just stick to mp3 lossless. The Zen plays videos as well but only in avi and wmv format. It also displays multiple format pictures on its glorious 2.5" 16mil colour TFT screen (notice my fetish for big 16mil colour screens?) The interface looks good and sound quality has always been above average for Creative players. Once again, people would probably compare this to iPod Touch. Yep iPod touch is the iPhone without the phone thus boasts revolutionary interface and Wifi. The Zen surely loses out on these fronts but sound quality has always been on Creative's side and that's what is important to me most in a DAP.

Lengthy review here. Sessy player.

3. Chuck Taylor Converse All-Star Double Upper Low



Funky name for a pair of shoes but seriously, they look really good. On me. Okay so I've never tried them on but I can imagine how perfectly they would fit on me. These totally fit a pair of jeans or dark slacks or even three-quarters. Nothing much to say about these. Too bad Mahkota Parade's store closed down before I was into Converse and I don't think outlets in KL sell models like these. Tell me if you spot them kay.

Visit Converse for more shoes. Sessy shoes.

4. Nintendo Wii


When I saw the ingame screenies from the Sony PlayStation 3 Sony 2 years ago, I thought it would totally own all other consoles on it's release. It seems that didn't come true as it's trailing in sales behind both Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii. So at no.4 of my wanted list is Nintendo Wii. This cool little gadget boasts a motion sensitive controller and innovative ways to play games. People who own this are swinging their arms all over the place looking at the screen. If you don't know how good this console is you must have been living under a stone. It falls short of super advance graphics but has innovative games and is very much cheaper than the other consoles. At the moment, Nintendo > Microsoft > Sony. I would consider getting the Wii if only them China Pirate Bengs would pirate games for it.

Just google Wii and click on any link for more info. Sessy console.

5. Sony HDR-SR8E HandyCam



At no.5 is a Sony HandyCam. This baby records at 1080pi HD format and has 4.3 megapixel recording. Recording moving images is different from still images and 4.3 mp is very big for moving images. It has 60gb internal memory for 38hours of recording. The LCD screen is touchscreen and has SteadyShot to counter shaky hands. Got some other features but these are what I care about most. The question why would I want a camcorder? I shoot movies from time to time with some friends and equipment is really a headache when we wanna start shooting. Having this baby around will make things so much easier.

Head on over to Sony for all the jizz. Sessy camcorder.


That's all the sessyness I have for this post. These are all really cool stuff and like I said, I'd get them if I had the money to wipe my ass with. Reality is so harsh. Did I mention my b'day was around the corner?HUhuahuahua
