What do you notice in the picture? If you said both the stalls on the left are full of customers and the one on the right that says 'Snek Asli' is shit empty, then you are right.
Looked like a freaking refugee camp. When the rain finally stopped 3 hours later, we went back in to get into a ride. There was a fire show going on as well, which was pretty cool. Plus I managed to get involved in the show as well lol.
Scariest ride ever -.- Technically meant for kids but even a patient with a 99% chance of getting an angina would not have got it riding this shitty excuse of a ride. All the nice rides had super long queues but we decided that we needed to make full use of the RM44 ticket, so we decided to queue for the Cyclone coaster.
Some of the deco in MV. Dance performances were going on as well and the crowd was like diarrhoea. But that's what I love about MV lol. The sea of people. Thinking of upgrading my Windows to W7, but it will cost RM480, and I am financially crippled at the moment.
Some things you only realize after it happens even though it has happened to you time and time again, and this is one of them - McD breakfast is expensive. Ah but what the heck. Most of the cash that I brought back here has been used for food anyway haha. Such pigs. Have to start rationing out before I run out of cash. Unless some bank here will accept Lloyds TSB debit card -_-Managed to get my ext hd and a Razor mouse as well sweeet. Decided against the 1TB hd as it was 3.5'' and I think that it would've occupied too much space in the luggage. Sad. It's the same price as the 2.5'' 500GB one that I got as well.
The deco outside. Really love the Christmas season with all the deco. Gonna head to MidValley soon they always have awesome deco as well. Ahh Christmas is such a great holiday season eh? Though we don't know why we are having Christmas as a holiday, or why it is named "Christ -mas" as well since it has nothing to do with Christ as well and more to do with the Pagans and their Dies Natalis Sol Invicti or something my Chemistry teacher used to tell me lol. GASP sacrilege! Or not.
And my fav shot of the day :) Can't wait to go out later! And having family dinner as well tonight lol.
Got to hit the showers then. Vista just always feels like home for some reason. Plus the weather hasn't been bad since I'm in the 22nd floor. Need better net to play the games to use my mouse!!
My future car in Manchester Airport
The plane interior with 1000+ movies and stars in the ceiling lol
The expensive Dubai food. 50g caviar for 800dirham?!! 1dirham = RM1
Finally had my haircut as well at a not so cutthroat price here. Had just been pigging out with the girlfriend since I have been back lol planning all the foodstuff to eat. Pity there are not really that many good movies out.Researchers have found that the body is in a constant fight to remain either female or male and the suppression of just one gene could cause it to "flip" from one to the other.
The remarkable findings refute the generally held view that sex is determined at birth and is irreversible in later life.
They could also lead to treatments for certain gender disorders in children, early menopause in women and even eventually non-surgical sex changes.
In mammals, males have XY chromosomes and females XX. The new research shows that another gene is responsible for switching women into men.
If the FOXL2 is switched on then the body grows ovaries, switched off and they are replaced by testicles.
But what really surprised the researchers is that the process continues after birth and the body remains in a constant tussle to either switch on or off the gene - even in adulthood.
"No one would have betted on this," said Professor Mathias Treier of the University of Cologne in Germany. "That's why the finding is so spectacular,"
The team found that in adult mice by turning off the FoxL2 gene, the ovary cells started to change testicular cells. This suggest the same effect could happen to humans.
"It was thought that you were born either female or male and then your body forgot about it," said Dr Robin Lovell-Badge, the co-author at Britain's Medical Research Council's National Institute of Medical Research.
"But this suggests that the battle of the sexes continues all the way through your life, "
The researchers believe that the process could be similar to that in some fish who are able switch sexes at times when there is a scarcity of either males or females.
No wonder. It's all so clear now :D
Teong Rhen and Syed. You can almost make out Mastura in the background lol. Having fun drunk. Syed, well, its a secret haha.
The roast turkey! And what's left of my beer in the corner.
And the Christmas pudding, which I swapped with Niha as she didn't like her choice of the vanilla panacotta, which looked something like this.
Was great fun, having to drink and a good laugh with friends. And my net sucks big time now. Ffs we are paying quite a sum for the fastest service and I do expect it to be better.
One more book arriving tomorrow! And to think that I saved 30pounds just by ordering online. Well I wanted to get the 1st editions, or at least the older prints cuz after all these are old books (1920+) but they cost a freaking fortune. Come to think about it, it wasn't really the price that put me off, it was the fact that the seller wouldn't deliver the books. Would have been a confirmed piece of business for him that. Pity. Time to indulge!!
