Trip: Day 1 -Tesla Coil

Right! As I was saying last weekend, I had a little trip to the south of Malaysia. Specifically, Singapore! Now, as any other curious and like minded intelligent people here, I visited the Singapore Science Center under strong persuasion by my lovely GF (she was pulling my ear).

My... What big mouth you have..

The visit for less of a better word. Electrifying. We arrived and got our first COOL impression of the science center when we were greeted with a roar by the resident T-Rex. After making a very good impression to us, we were quite thrilled to go in and arrived just in time for some TESLA COIL action! They had 4 demonstration of how Tesla Coil works and what it can do, I have uploaded 3 of them. One is the classic Red Alert style Tesla Coil, an exploding balloon and also power conduction! View them all below!.

Blue Forest

The rest of the trip though, is a bit... Boring... Well, what would you expect after the shocking show? The science center has too many broken machinery, most of the stuff there doesn't work. And the stuff that work is not THAT interesting.
That's a real Ferrari Enzo if you are wondering

Nevertheless, we spent nearly 5 hours there, looking through every exhibit and even manage to take picture with Ferrari Enzo, Blue Forest and various other stuff. It's bang for money the exhibit is, but I still prefer KLCC Petrosains. Theirs are a lot more fun!
My Shadow. Cool huh?

Anyway, I also went to the END OF EARTH. Literally! Find out about that in the next post!



RED ALERT!!



The power is in your hand!

First 5! Bleach: Soul Carnival


I have never had so much fun since I discovered Nintendo DS and playing all the games that has escaped me since I started working 3 years ago. Today. Today I relish back all the fun that I first had. The thrill of playing a simple hack and slash game.

Bleach: Soul Carnival is your standard platform hack and slash. Normally, any game that started off from anime/manga first then to game will only bank on their character and the availability of the easiest console it can get into. Making most if not all those game. Medicore.

With Soul Carnival though, its a totally different ball game. The game is rendered on 2D with a side scrolling action. The actions are fast paced, intense and superbly beautiful but what endears the game to me is the character. In Super Deformed body. Cute and deadly, all the characters wreak carnage across the screen with an efficency that shocks you. The game gives you a few spaces to breath in between when you started off, for the sake of newbies, but mocing slightly deeper into the game, the enemy you face will start to become a challenge. Providing an immense sense of satisfaction for newbie and hardcore player alike

There are a number of character that can be unlocked for play, unlocked character will also provide support with the use of easy to remember combo command. Considering that the game is in japanese, there might be some difficulty for most gamer to get into. but do not let that turn you off as what you essentially need to know is explained in the tutorial which has graphical instruction. Couple that with your own iniative on understanding what the game tries to stay. You will still have one hell of a time playing the game.

I would say this is a really MUST GET and IMPORT FRIENDLY game. I for one is having one ball of a time with this game.

MPH Warehouse Sales



So MPH is having this warehouse sales over at their warehouse (duh). I like their warehouse sales, they will always load in all the good books there and not only the old books. But new ones too. Some of the title that I manage to get are

The Children of Hurin by J.R.R Tolkien HARDCOVER for only RM25
Magician: Apprentice by Raymond E. Feist for only RM10
The Adventure of Indiana Jones for RM15
and the most expensive one,
How Starbucks Saved My Life by Michael Gill for RM26


All this total up to no more than RM66. HALF the price if I were to purchase 4 of the same book at any other bookstore. If you guys have time over this weekend, head over to

Ground Floor Warehouse

Bangunan TH

MPH Warehouse

NO 5 Jalan Bersatu 13/4

Petaling Jaya


Its very simple to get there, if you are coming from PJ, head to Rothman roundabouts, turn into the junction across from the hotel and beside the newspaper factory. (The road heading towards the Mosque and Digital mall). Then keep going until you hit a second junction beside Colgate Palmolive on your left. You won't miss the junction as a HUGE banner indicating the warehouse sale is there. Then just go straight untill you hit a jam/lots of car/lots of people.

MPH warehouse is on your right.
