Ok, I was looking through my coms picture gallery to find some pictures to amuse myself. and Guess what? I did. Both series are from the 2008 Bintan trip.
First one, is about Val.
Here, BERN and I are sailing happily. (I was manning the gybs). Happy kids sailing! But, what goes out, must come in. (Val and Bern changed places midway, Bern took the Kayak with Bae)
I know that that is not standard Landing technique, but it works well enough. Here, you can see Val PRETENDING to free the sheets and the Dagger board, BUT, she didn’t touch the gybs and the rudder.
Note- Boats in strong winds with un-freed gybs = bad idea. And then….
Oh right, thanks Val! This picture should be used for DJ Phrancis’ next SS test. Look! Val’s STRUTTING AWAY! And the confused look on my face…hmm…must have been the burgee showing funny readings. I NEVER look confused around a Laser Pico!
And then pity pity, I’m all alone de-rigging the boat for landing, but some helpful guy from the water sport center decided to help me out!
Yes, I think it runs in the family…but no, I did not just strut off like Val, I was facing out of the wind to check out a cut I got UNDER MY FINGERNAILS (painful as very painful). I like friendly and helpful people.
Next up, we have Dad! And his…..antiques/he-can’t-help-it moments.
Along the beach, we find a hammock!
Here is a happy Mum using the hammock happily. Then, Dad decided to have a rest!
Pancake flop! Oh but wait, there’s more!
Dad says : “Woah! How come all of you play like so fun?!” (Yes, my dad speaks Singlish and is damn funny with it)
Dad: “Ah!”
Dad: “Ouch, what happened?” Yea, we meant
Dad: “woah! so relaxing!”
Yup, he needed help up, and after all that….
He decides to use it as a shawl…
That’s my dad and sister for you. Charming family, don’t you think?
And yes, I have a fetish with accents. Jenny! The East London accent is out dated! Get the Aussie-Hybrid and I’ll buy you a new phone!
Singapore-based Muay Thai middle-weight competition!
Boxing, 10(10)-3-0 [W(KO)-L-D] So, how many matches did he win withOUT a KO?
I told you so...
Although...Bas Rutten is still on the top of my "do-not-touch" list.
Jason who? Jason Chambers? My former idol? Nah, I think you made a mistake.
wha...wha...what happened to "Location Location Location"?!I have finally ran out of things to blog about, interesting or not, so, I decided, while chatting with Jenny, I should blog about her! No, you don’t get to see her, but you can see what I chat about with my new/old best friend!
Ever since a particular Friday, I lost my night-time chat buddy. So, while Yew Hong was busy with his ultra-engaging DOTA match, I was telling Jenny about my dream!
as you can see, Jenny and I are very close, and we teach each other cool stuff. Other than that, you don’t even think about befriending her online, I will go over and pummel you into the ground. 1 more thing, what’s up with the Firefly?!
Also, I have been asking my friends this question “If I get wheel-chair bound, will you push me around?” it’s meant to be serious, weed out the non-friends, but Jenny….she’s exploiting it!
Not only did she exploit it, her spelling sucks as bad as mine !
Of the others I asked,
Yew Hong- epic phail, fails as bad as his favorite topic (damn, I'm sweating ;p)
Miller- says he would wheel me to the closest flight of stairs and "get you down in the fastest possible manner"
The rest were your average "Course I would!"
To conclude, I STILL have all the say, Jenny is cute and someone (ahem ahem) is not hot.
Aces of War. Remember I said their English failed? Well, they have logic loops too.
Historical Background as the subject matter....aliases of such blah blah blah are fictional...!?
My DIVE bombing epic fail. Let me explain why. In Dive bombing, you fly around 5000ft above your target, then drop into a 70-90degree dive, drop the bomb, and pull out at around 500ft.
One of the more prominent dive bombers in the Dauntless SBD (Picture above). So, surprise, surprise, I really was trying to dive bomb.
Lets see how many things I got right.
Cruising Alt- 5000ft. FAIL (1ft)
Dive Angle- 70-90. FAIL (0degrees)
Pull out Alt- 500ft. FAIL (1ft)
Oh Dear, I think I am epic fail…
Next comes my Medal of Honor (which I got too lazy to blog the actual post about)
Here, we have a German Officer and a German General beating the ^&*#! out of each other!
I was neither of them. I was dead, as the "Next respawn in 2.4 seconds" indicates. Death cam rules!
After my Dive bomb epic fail, I decided to do it right.
Woohoo! Flaps on, Altitude correct, bombs going, aim on target. I'm good to go!
Oh...1 tiny flaw...I'M USING A DAMN B29-SUPERFORTRESS! Just FYI, you take 3000ft of altitude to pull out of a 45degree dive. I have only 982ft.
Now, back to MoHH!
Nazi Camper fail! (My sleeves and Thompson SMG tells you that I am an Allied fighter). He was waiting outside the house, I saw him from the second level, and left via the backdoor (he was camping at the front door). Apparently, he failed as a stalker, and soldier in general. I beat him to death with my rifle, didn't want to insult my bullets! HAHAHAHA being mean.
Here, we have a defy-al of physics! No, not that I am so awesome, I can bash 2 Nazis at once, it's that the front Nazi has turned partially-invisible!
For those who refuse to believe that I am awesome, let me prove to you that there are 2 Nazis in the pic. One (further behind) is a German Officer(GO). You can see him clearly, with his beret on. The other is a Snow Infantry(SI), he is partially-invisible. As final prove, there is a helmet floating in mid air. I punched it off the SI's head, proved by the fact that the GO does not wear a helmet, and is wearing his beret.
This is prove that SIs turn invisible! This guy too is partially-invisible. You look closely. SIs wear a helmet and a ski-mask underneath. Look for the ski-mask in the pic above if you're as skeptical as Miller.
Here, the soldier is thinking "woohoo! Ich gehe zu schießen dich!"
Meaning - "woohoo! I'm going to shoot you!"
But, I'm looking at him through the scope of my Endfield Rifle, and it has 3/65 bullets!
Hah! and now he's thinking "Ich bin nicht mehr kool aussehen!"
meaning "I don't look cool anymore!" Thoughts about death didn't cross his mind, surprisingly.
Completely irrelevant!
Boom! (-*-) headshot! For the uninformed, he recoiled backward as the shot hit, the thing just left of the Y-axis is his beret flying off. From that, guess my name.
If you guessed Willie, Tony or Oliver, sadly, you're wrong.
Woohoo! I am teh Awesome! 100% accuracy! I actually missed 3 shots, but I used a Bazooka initially, got a few double kills, so my accuracy at times was 200%. Max accuracy is 100%.
Now, time for Aces of War!
Yea! Peeping Tom FTW! Ok, fine, I was trying to ram the plane. Collide, fail the mission, but it will still be fun to do!
Overshot it so damn many times, drew FlaK, fighter cover and defensive fire. Finally, on my 3rd try, I hit him. There was turbulence nearer the larger plane, screwed up my collision.
Pilot Academy! I hardly blog about it because of it's stupid looking models and textures. It's a Flight Simulation game with a few flight missions, main attraction is the Free Roam mode.
In this mission, I have to land my 747-400 at a partially built runway, WITH A TORNADO! There are a total of around 6 tornadoes along the flight route, 1 at the short-runway.
Hard to tell, but my plane was stall-falling, it turned out to be one of the most perfect landings I have pulled off with the 747! Even better than in Free Roam, with the longer runways, and lack of tornadoes.
Remember Ace Combat? Yea. Remember my awesomeness at refuelling?
Don't fret anymore, there's a pic of my FALKEN refuelling! Not visible in this pic, but Shughart was pacing just above the tail of the 737.
Doubt I have ever blogged about GTA: Vice City Stories. But now I have! Let me jump you in. I completed the game 3 times over, and now have an extremely convenient cheat device that allows me to be a god in the game. I like driving a Police Car, turning on the blinkers and pretending I'm a cop. Why? Don't ask. I LOVE the blinkers on Police cars (the ones in VCS are kinda stupid)
Here. I'm tasked with stopping a plane who has a wanted fugitive! You can see, I epic fail. The tires crushed my suspension.
Wow! Look at my $$! - Twenty million, Four Hundred and Forty Two thousand, Five hundred and Forty Seven dollars!- In numerals $20,442,547. It has since almost doubled.
This is how I make the Mula! $10,514 in a SINGLE stunt! Yes, I know I used the cheat device to float my car across the whole map, but it's still cool!
Remember the Cheat Device? Infinite car-spawning?
Yes, I can screw up. Better still, I can screw up twice and spawn two police cars, on top of each other, BOTH STUCK ON A LAMPPOST!
Though I love pretending to be Police, I HATE THE REAL POLICE! (although my Cheat Device enables me to turn off my wanted level :p )
Oh teh noes! Police! 4 stars wanted level! Bazooka time! [BOOM!]
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha! All your polices is dies! Wait...5 starts wanted!? WTF!? HEY! Someone made a mistake! (My bazooka ammo didn't change not because of a cheat, but because I 100% completed the game.)
Because I am Teh awesome, I turned it down to 3 starts! But...
Hey! It's not funny anymore! You blew my tires! The bar on the top shows my coordinates (part of the cheat device) as (X axis, Z axis, Y Axis) it also shows FPS (which was 36 at that point) and Vehicle speed. It was blurred because the stupid axises changed their values with varies decimal points. i.e. 100.321- 100.0 so the bar couldn't move fast enough.
Test time! How many understand why the display bar is blur? No one? great. I wasted my time.
Now, time for my...Armored Core Formula Front- Extreme Battles!
I use ONLY my AC-1, gave it the best equips. Mr Pham will be proud to see his mathematical influence on my team and robot name!
Cos Θ! ! HAHAHAHAHA
those funny symbols are Greek for "alfa" and α=(Alpha, modern day A)
Robot fighting action!
Every Geek's paradise. I go for all rapid fire, suppression, then charge in and sword him. (AP just = health)
