Hey I heard you’ve been invited by my mom to our Raya open house. Call me once you’re downstairs. (Mama’s idea btw!)

I Love You, Internet
Coz it’s now back in my house. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FINALLY!
Many pictures to post, work to do and dungeons to raid. Stay tuned for my epic return to the Net!
Internet Coming Soon!
This coming Friday, Gyao Hikari will be coming over to set up the Net. Means no more wasting money going to the manga or wireless cafe!
If they can’t make it this Friday, I think I’m gonna die.

Rain in Shibuya
Doing a little last-minute shopping in Shibuya now, preparing for tomorrow’s epic Mt Fuji journey! Hope the weather won’t be as bad tomorrow.
Flickr x Blogger x Facebook Combo Meal
If everything was set up properly, this message from my phone will update Flickr, in turn updating my blog and Facebook. What a convenient age we live in!
From Tokyo to TOA: Doujin Game Presentation
Phew, finally the presentation has finished. It was nice to see familiar faces in The One Academy again, no matter how pixelated they were :P Man, I miss teaching! Once it was all done, can’t help but feel a little lonely (this is where you go “awwwwwwwwwwwwww…”)
fyi, I was invited to give a live video feed presentation to The One Academy students, talking about doujin culture and how you can be part of the ever-growing independent spirit.
Thanks to Sook Chiung, Wei Peow and the rest of the team, the session went on smoothly, though there were a few disconnections here and there. Super big arigatou to them!
Before the pressie, Yee Lean enthusiastically showed the V sign to me, hehe. It was as if the students were in Tokyo themselves, considering how common the V sign is here! Pictured also are Benjamin and Sora, otakus themselves I’m sure :P
Poor Joanne. She had to carry that camera so that I could see the audience and my own slides. And look at Sook Chiung’s worried face lol. I’m sure this is where she went “Talk S-L-O-W-E-R”. Thanks so much, you two. Will you both marry me?
We started with a little exercise session to test the Internet lag. Even from Tokyo, I could control their arms bwahahahaha. Pictured are Aurelia (o rly ah?), Zheng Hong aka “Lechaoz the Level 80 Paladin” xD and Wahyu, the dude who likes to take videos in female toilets.
I talked a little bit about myself, and this is where my /IF/ pictures come in. Nerds rule!
When I showed a pic of some japanese girls (aka my girlfriends) wearing some Tokyo Fashion, Kellie the fashionista seemed to be in awe. “Wah where can I get that skirt…”
My boss Sweii was there, and so was her boss! Beside her is Tatsun, The One Academy’s principal. Yikes *nervous*
This is either Wahyu fully paying attention to my presentation, or he’s just acting cool in front of Reuben’s camera. I’m betting the latter lol
Wow some students DO pay attention. I’m surprised :P
My intention was to make the presentation have a lot of lawls, which turned out to be a success :D Love the laugh on this dude! Diana and Tanyus behind showed everyone their beautiful teeth, and Ifa seemed puzzled “Eh what’s so funny?”
Selvia, on the other hand, was bored. Aiyoh Selvia, sakit hati aku tengok gambar ni!
The moral of the story is that you guys have talent, and a whole lot of tools out there are free, so go out there and do great stuff! Thanks so much for coming guys!
Just an additional note, I would like to congratulate two of my favourite students in The One, Yiwei (Hey where’s Yenn?!) and Chen aka Mak Datuk. They did so well in their games that they were also invited to give a presentation. You both make me and The One Academy proud!
Thanks to Reuben, Aurelia and Benjamin for the pics!
Some After Effects Fun (for TOA Presentation!)
Some of you guys already know that I’ll be conducting a presentation at The One Academy this Friday. And no, I’m not going back to Malaysia ^^;; I’m excited coz it’s my first, also TOA’s first, video conference talk ever! Let’s hope the Internet and I are best friends that day.
I’ll be talking about doujin culture and its impact to the Japanese community. Thought I’d take the initiative and create a nice video of Akihabara. Borrowed my ex-classmate’s camera, took a bunch of stuff with Dzaid as cameraman and am now editing the video. Should be done by tonight… I think :S
Only edited video twice in my life LOL, and that’s using Adobe Premier. Then I went, what the heck la, let’s learn After Effects. People always tell me it’s like Photoshop but it’s moving, so why not rite. Cool thing is that the trial version is only limited by its 30-day period.
That said, please forgive me if my editing sucks k :P
Big thanks to Sook Chiung and team for getting all this together. Here, she’s wearing glasses coz I started wearing one too. hehe *blush*
Alright then. Students of TOA, can’t wait to see you guys this Friday! Yoroshiku ne!
A Fine Gentleman
Well as expected, not much comments on the anime post. In response to that, the next thing to do is to show you guys what you want to see most: me!
Hakukun-san took this candid picture of me during lunch.
Oh, please ignore the face pores, thanks.

Like my new look? [^]=[^]
Digital (Zero) Luck Continues
I think I’m just not cut out to be a computer user. Sony called and told me the repair cost would be 66,000 yen. That’s RM 2,640 goddammit. Considering all options, it’s time to get a new desktop. *sigh* Am waiting for my mom’s money transfer before going out for a little shopping.
So goodbye, dear Vaio *sniff* At least I still have the hard disk.
To make matters worse, the web console to my easyonlygames.com email is down. Been a week plus since it happened. As such, please email me at wanhazmer[at]gmail[dot]com.
Anyone care to guess what’s next on my digital luck list? ^^;;
