368# Happening~
Just a little update to push down my previous Gundam post.
Few days back Kin Chern asked me to read Chingli's blog, and ask me what kind of life I'm having over here, as compared to them in the overseas. Oh well, that's quite a big difference.
Over here we do enjoy ourselves once in a while, minus the photo taking and the blog entries for those events we have.
Plus we don't go for sight seeing and take photos around. Because there's no place to go around here except Tesco or Jusco. Oh yeah.
So, last week we went to Jusco for the RM2 bonanza offer from Sushi King.
I got a second memebership card from Chan, which I passed to my mother and I'm holding my own one with myself. Thus I can use it while I'm in Seremban and my family can use Chan's ones too, since Chan doesn't need it now.
Do I owe you lunch, Chan? I better don't mention this...
Due to the delay in the campus, we reached 30 minutes late as planned. In the end, we had to queue up for 1 hour to get our seat. Seremban's branch of Sushi King is the smallest ones I've been to so far. The number of people queuing up was more than the people eating inside!
And heck, where is my unagi?
Seems that there is a shortage of supply of unagi over there. But this did not happen at the branch my family went, and they enjoyed unagi to the max. Over here, we had to rush into a group of sushi-hunger killers before we could get our sushis.
No unagi, why did i go there for? And that really kills off my appetite. I used to eat up to 13 plates, then 11 plates, and then 10 plates only. And now this time i ate only 8 plates, lose to Jane and William who ate 10 plates. I know it is still quite little, I know they can eat more.
Maybe I've just got sick to Sushi. Last time during semester 4 I used to go sushi king very often with Chan and Kean Seng, just because we had nothing to do.
Semester 4 was a big honey moon for us. Plus the free A- for selective, great la.
I guess I won't be eating sushi for a while, because the taste is making me sick.
Hope you are reading this, the CEO of Sushi King malaysia. You need to secure the supply of the unagi my friend.
Anyway, each of everytime after i eat sushi in sushi king, I say to myself I'm bored of it and I won't eat again. But somehow, due to unknown reasons, I will still walk into the restaurant...
After we finished eating, we saw a few houseman doctors from our hospital queuing up for sushi too, and we went there and talked to them. Jusco seremban 2 is indeed the most happening place in Seremban. Sad but great.
One more week to go for internal medicine posting. Family medicine is next.
End of Posting exam on next Wednesday. Wish me luck.

367# Gundam Fix Figuration #0038 - MSF - 007 Gundam Mk-III
367# Gundam Fix Figuration #0038 - MSF - 007 Gundam Mk-III
This page is so deprived of Gundam-related posts lately. I remember the last post about Gunpla was around July, where I posted the MG Shin Musha Gundam I completed. But I didn't post up the full post, because my camera ran out of juice so I didn't manage to capture more pictures.
In addition to that, I also wrote about the MG unicorn gundam, but it was left incomplete as well. I should continue to write about it in Destroy mode.
Other than those, I still haven't complete the post about our Langkawi trip. And those folks have already went overseas now. Really miss those times.
Having such tight schedule in the clinical school, I doubt that I would have time to fix Gunpla. Usually one Master Grade takes me around 7 days to complete, where i spent 2 to 3 hours a day. Thus that makes up total of 14 hours to do the straight building, decals and coating.
14 hours, I don't really think I would be so rich to spend my time for that. Of course it's still possible for me to fix it right now, just that it would take me up to months to complete.
Months ago this GFF (Gundam Fix Figuration) is released. Around July if I'm not wrong. It is not a mobile suit from the TV series but rather a new design from the Godly mechanical desginer Katoki Hajime under the variation series.
Mk-III resembles both Zeta and Mk-II, could be their son if both of them got married. For me, I think the outlook is really nice being a Universal Century mobile suit.
Maybe I've just got tired of Cosmic Era's design. I already have 6 MGs from the CE but only 4 from the UC. Therefore I am more or less got attracted to UC's original, mechanical, more realistic design right now. Plus due to the time restriction I have right now, I'm more deviated to finished model currently.
GFF is not plastic model like Gunpla. It is a prepainted model by Bandai which manufactured in Hong Kong, unlike all Gunpla which are made in Japan.
Among all prepainted model like Hcm-Pro, MSiA, EMSiA and so on, GFF line stands on top of the list in terms of price, design and finishing.
It is 100% fully painted and infiltrated with Katoki's infamous heavy markings. It usually come with numerous weapons and able to convert from one form to another. In this case, this Mk-III is able to convert to the Full Armor Mk-III.
And it comes with a stand which is quite useful too.
This is my first GFF. Bought it in Cineleisure on last Saturday with the price of RM198. The most expensive gundam in scale of 1/144 I've bought so far. But it definitely worth the money because of its finishing.
I wanted to buy this long time ago but my list for MGs was quite long so this fella had to queue up. But since now I have not much time have for myself to fix Gunpla, thus I give this GFF a chance. Quite curious about GFFs, plus I really like the design, thus I spent my quota of months to buy this model.
Unlike Gunpla, GFF's articulation is relatively limited. However, standing position is the trademark for Ver. Ka's models. So they already look nice with the standing position. And you would not want to pose it around often, since this may scratch off the painting on the surfaces.
The quality control is always an issue for those finished models which are manufactured outside Japan. For this GFF I purchased, I chose one among all four boxes so that I could get one with the best QC. But anyway there are still some parts where the paintings are off, still tolerable somehow.
My main issue for this GFF is that - the ball joints and armor joints are too loose!
Especially the wing stabilizers on the backpack, the ball and socket joint, the ball just can't fit tight into the socket. And while in Full Armor mode, the armors fall easily from the body. It's quite pissing off there the same piece of armor fall more than 10 times before it could be fitted in place.
And the rest are just fine.
Mk-III with shield and the Beam Rifle. The rifle's clips are removable and can be attached to the shield. The rifle or the handgun can also be attached to the shield. Besides, there are 2 beam sabers mounted on the shield as well. Pretty much of arsenal to be carried on the shield.
As being mentioned above, the articulation is relatively limited. The knee can be flexed up t 80 degress only, unlike MGs where can go up to 180 degrees.
But however it's not an issue for me, since I won't be posing it around but to place it in standing/standby position, or simply, in the box.
Handgun is given as well. It's not called as the handgun actually, but I just can't find what it is called from the details written on the box.
Even such small weapon also have like 9 markings on it. Typical Ver. Ka design.
Generously 2 beam cannons. Kind of hard to hold them in the hands due to its massive size and limited joint movements. And the beam cannon's design is still inherited from the UC's ones.
All these weapons can be attached on the shield or on the backpack, just like any other MS from theUC line., which is quite helpful. But the weapon's weight may add extra burden to the joints, thus this isn't what I will do usually.
Will write about the Full Armor mode during next Gundam deprivation period.
Conclusion
Pros: 1. Quality design from Katoki Hajime.
2. Able to convert to the tanker Full Armor mode.
3. Plenty of weapons given.
Cons: 1. As usually, unsatisfactory quality control (Painting, panel lining)
2. Loose joints (this upset me the most)
3. Poor articulation (Expected)
Rating: 4.5/5

366# Together, Sleeping for Health
366# Together, Sleeping for Health
Seems that I'm severely lacking of photos to post in my page currently.
My handphone's camera function is not been used as heavily as i did back to the Bukit Jalil days. Right now, I don't even have much time to spend wth the phone. That explains why I don't have to charge the phone as frequent as in the past.
I still abuse the phone once in a while at night to see the photos taken last time. It's nostalgic, you know, to see all the funny, stupid, so hai photos captured intentionally or accidentally in the phone.
But sometimes I would have photos sitting in my phone which not taken by me.
Seems that Kean Seng is too bored and he decided to fool around my Revoltech models and snapped a few photos of his masterpiece as rememberance in my phone.
There was another time where he camwhored 3 photos of himself. I'm sorry but those photos are too shiny to be published. If I could, then I would have post them here.
Talk about shiny, I think that Ann's hair is quite the shiny by the way. Stands out totally from the crowd. It's just a matter of time to get her ass whacked (she herself is the notorious butt-slapper anyway) by the authority. Therefore hope after she eats the raya kuih then her hair can return to normal as soon as possible before she returns to the ward.
Like I mentioned above, no new photos to post. No photos almost equals to no new posts. Because I do need some visual to stimulate words. But anyway, more sleeping photos ahead.
Not a lot, a few only la.
Afternoon is the best time to sleep, because all your blood rush to you guts to digest your lunch and your brain suffers from shock and you just go hibenate mode.
Of course we don't sleep when the lecturers are around. The few minutes before the TBL starts are precious enough for us to catch a small nap :)
I can't remember who is the one in the above picture. She sat behind Mei Ann that day. And someone beside her sabotage my photo taking with a pen but apparently she failed.
And i recognise the the person in the photo below;
Karma.
I always take photo of those people who are sleeping and now this time i kena from Thomas when i sat beside him.
When I was sleeping during the TBL session, Megala was paying 120% attention. Damn, that's a huge contrast.
Everytime I try my best to stay awake but most of the times voices seem to turn into lullaby and my mind would slowly drag away from the real world and go into random eye motion.
"Sorry, I can't help it. I've tried my best"
Clinical school. How far can we go?
Mmm... Sounds like imu's orietation video.
