Seremban..

It usually takes a comment from an outsider to change your sense of viewing things that are familiar. Like pointing out how much Seremban has changed these few years. Man..one of these changes can be easily summed up with a scenario, which goes something like this:
Thiam and MMMC Hardgay are doing the night shift in the Seremban GH. Their seniors just finished telling them how easy the night shift was during the olden days. It was a sleepy small town after all. Then, suddenly, the A&E doors open with a bang, and 3 stretchers with mutilated and bloody victims are rolled in. All were involved in an accident that occured as an illegal midnight race between motorcycle gangs was underway.
Man, can you believe the amount of new, STRAIGHT and LONG roads that have emerged over these few years? Perfect areas for racing..City planners even thoughtfully included U-turns at the far ends of road stretches like the one linking Bidara to Ocean Centrepoint. Could get some wonderful drifting stunts there.
Anyway, the old gangs from 5 S are mainly scattered all over the world. Yeah, everybody is scattered over the world. I meant that there's really not many left here now. Why am I even brain-rotting over here? Alone~
Sigh, it's true. The days in secondary school are one of the best moments in one's life. Except the exam periods. Hehe..but even then there were memorable times. People slugging it out over books like it was Armageddon. Some still playing basketball halfway during exam period.
And the school changed a lot.
A lot.
Hehe..just showing a little of what School Rumble Ni Gakki OP says. We are the Sentimental Generation. Haha..I remember the incredulous look Jessica gave when I told her we went back to school. Lol..clearly it said "of all places?!"
Hahas..
Suddenly have this urge to re-watch Gungrave.
It's a series I stumbled upon in my quest to look for Groove Adventure Rave. But that's for another day.
Anyway, it's another of those animes about love and loss. Betrayal stinks to high heaven too. It's actually a mafia movie, where the main characters rise from being mere street rats to ultimately be the ruling lords within the powerful mafia organization known as Millenion. Halfway through, technology to raise the dead, the Necrolyze, is invented and things go downhill from there. But the nicest thing about this is, in the end, true friendship transcends death and extends it's hand beyond the grave [which, incidentally, is the name of a reanimated character] and cuts through tangles of deceit and betrayals to finally put an end to mindless strife and killings.
However, skip the game. It's rubbish compared to the anime. Hahas..Good thing I didn't buy it =p MMMC Hardgay was complaining about it being slow, cumbersome etc. All the hallmarks of a badly made game. Does the anime no justice.
The OST is not bad though. I had some good laughs while looking at the song list. Names like "Calculator cannot help you" and "Do your business"..man..quite lame, leh!
Hmm..Think that's for all. Shall be looking forward from now on. Like it's sung in the OP of Rave, "Susu-meh!"
That's "Forward!" for all you non-Japanese speaking people out there. =p
Ok, havn't posted pictures for some time now. Have a look at this!

Reminds me of a hot dog =p
It's a sausage dog, a female one at that. Hopefully Thiam doesn't kill me for that. Hahas..
