1 week already?!

Wow..almost a week of being away! Sorry guys! Was really tied up at work!

And I wasn't even able to upload new videos for the entire week..well it's because le gf is heading to Korea for her holiday trip with her friends..I'm sorry my dear I couldn't go with you =(

Throughout the whole week I've actually decided to spend as much time with her as possible before she heads off to Korea for 10 days..yea yea I know..I'm a little clingy.. xP

Well..she's already 2 nights into Korea by the time this post is up..glad that she's enjoying herself there as it is winter now haha

We've been keeping in touch with video calls (she's on the hotel's wifi *phew*) and when she's out she's able to get online via this "EGG" which pretty much is a modem/router thingy-ma-jig..let's just say it's a wifi device lah xD

On the gaming side..on the 25th November..Rainbow Six: Siege Open Beta was launched..for us at Malaysia it was the 26th..downloaded the game via UPlay after getting back home on the Thursday night..I was able to run the game on the 27th and had a run..played Terrorist Hunt - Lone Wolf (Me vs Bots)

It's fun! Definitely not Destiny or Call of Duty..there is no longer the cover system that was available in Rainbow Six: Vegas & Vegas 2..but it was still fun! Going solo was tough..I couldn't even win any of the mission..here's the video of it xD

It's even more fun when you play with friends! I've gotten my buddy Strifemare to tag along..and maaaaaan it's fun! Here's the video

Will be uploading more Uncharted and Destiny gameplay soon! Keep updated at my Facebook Page!

More videos and a date (more foooood)!

Had more live streams recently! Actually..there was 2 last Friday the 20th..hahaha

First I streamed Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, followed by Rocket League

I was on leave on that day but was running errands throughout the day...after dinner I had about an hour before meeting up with a buddy..I decided to run Uncharted..so it was kind of an impromptu live stream

I noticed I have to work up on a few things after re-watching (well, technically just hearing) my videos..my pronunciation is the main issue here and I sound as if my nose it stuffed...I tend to mumble alot..there's also the issue of my confidence in speaking up..I still find that I am still awkward behind the mic..oh more importantly..I AM VERY..FLAT! I know it doesn't sound like it..but I am actually enjoying the game..my voice is doing so much INJUSTICE! I really sound like I'm not enjoying the game..I WILL improve!

After getting home from the short meet up..I ran Rocket League..

And boy I'm glad that I did the stream..thanks to those that watch especially le gf (for watching me play Uncharted too!)!

A few match was so intense that we drew 1-1 till we hit Overtime..the ball was being moved back and forth between the two halves..and yours truly had the least contribution of course HAHA!

I actually had my adrenaline pumping hard! My fingers was freezing cold at the end of the video! To the point I'm actually speechless at the end of the video..I really enjoyed this session! 

----------------------------

Over the weekend, le gf and I went to Pavilion, we wanted to have Rocku Yakiniku for lunch but decided not to as we had a very heavy porky dinner the night before

We ended up to Capricciosa ehehehhehe..they were running a promotion for Watson card members where you can buy 1 main course and get a free main course..we decided to order the Salmone Pasta, BBQ Chicken Pizza for our main course..as for drinks, le gf had Strawberry Tea and I had Vanilla Chocolate Mint smoothie..hehehe..CHEAT DAY!

Le Salmone

Let's start off with Salmone Pasta..le gf requested Linguini as pasta of choice..it's our favourite pasta menu at Capriciossa at the moment! The pan grilled salmon fillet is a litttle dry to my preference..but the sauce and smoke salmon chunks goes so well with the linguini! I'm drooling now as I recall the taste!

BBQ Chicken Pizza

Our BBQ Chicken Pizza arrived as we were almost done with the pasta..it looked meh..and unsurprisingly..so was the taste..the cheese was so uneven and it was sooooooooo thinly spread around the pizza..the BBQ sauce and the super crispy crust was the only saving grace hahaha

As for our drinks, le gf had Strawberry Tea..which has..black tea, strawberries, a slice of lemon and some mint leaves..it's good but a little too sour for my taste haha..

My Vanilla Chocolate Mint smoothie was nice..suitable for sweet tooth and a choco tooth! I love chocolate..and this is good with a hint of mint..

So here's my rating!

Salmone: 10/10

BBQ Chicken Pizza: 3/10 for the sauce and crispy crust!

Strawberry Tea: 7/10 (this is personal preference due to how sour the drink is..some may love it)

Vanilla Choco Mint Smoothie: 9/10 (My favourite! HAHAH!)

More Live Streaming..well..it was yesterday

I put up a post saying I was gonna do a live stream yesterday (18th November)..and I did!

I still find talking to myself awkward..but it isn't as awkward as my initial live stream...I've been building up some hype in myself to get ready for the streaming..getting in the zone laaaaa..hahaha

Although I've been doing that at work..WHILE working..I still wasn't sure how it'll turn out..but I gave it a go anyway..never try never know right? YOL- Okay..I don't want to go there lol

There was some connection issue at the end..almost at the 49th minute onwards..I noticed on my Youtube Control Centre that my streaming was dropping in quality..and it kinda screw up the final part of the video..

I had to actually defend Ghost while he did his thing with the transmitter..so if you're watching the video..bear with my random jibberish xD

Kopitiam Food!

How is it that no one reviews kopitiam food? Is it because it's too common? And it's weird for someone to take photo of the food at a kopitiam instead of a cafe? Hahaha..since I love food doesn't matter from kopitiam, stalls (market/pasar or road side), cafe to restaurants..

Anyway..today's food...

The Chicken Chop set! It includes a portion of Aglia Olio and fries for RM 11.00! I've had this before for a few times already but I did not blog about it. Plus it was over a year ago! So don't care-lah! It comes with two sauce option; mushroom or black pepper. I'm having the chicken with mushroom sauce this time around xD

Let's start off with the main dish..the last time I had this particular dish, about a year ago and it was good! But this time, they seem to have overcooked the chicken..it's tough and dry yech..the previous stall owners no where to be seen..must have trained these new guys but it didn't turn out good.

The mushroom sauce that comes with it..it's so-so at best. The mushroom fragrance is lacking. The gravy texture is good though (to my personal preference).

I'm not gonna comment on the fries-lah..it's just the typical fries you can get at a supermarket anywhere..The big surprise? Their Aglio Olio is surprisingly good..tasty! If you decide to get just the Aglio Olio, it's only RM5.50 per plate.

I've been coming to this kopitiam for 2 over years..and it's the closest and cheapest..with vast parking space. Although there are time where douchebags just decide to park by the curb even there's loads of open lots

Kopitiam: Restaurant Meng Yang 2, Kota Damansara
Stall: Western Food
Mad-Rating: 3 out of 10 (JUST because the Aglio is good!)

Brain overdrive-LAH!!

So my brain has been thinking...yeah that's bad..

One part of it was marketing the products at the company I'm working for: FOG Biotech Sdn Bhd..and the other part on how to run my Youtube Channel and FB page as well as this blog.

I won't touch much on the company side; just know that I'm coming up with all sort of marketing methods which may or may not work..I'm hoping for the best =)

As for my Youtube channel, I've been running on Live Streams due to the limitation I have.

Lack of capture card

I know we have to start from somewhere. I have some sort idea going around the capture card limitation. I've been running on Live Streams which allow me to game 30 minutes to an hour long. Down side of this is that the the video quality is low and it takes up bandwidth (if I'm playing an online game)

Another option is to run 15 minutes recording which is available on the PS4. This in turn allows me to edit the video later on but at the same time 15 minutes of gameplay isn't much to go on about especially games like Destiny or Rocket League

I'm very torn at the moment. Anyone can recommend affordable capture card/box/device at affordable rate?

Video editing skillzor

This..well..it takes time and practice..So far in the Dashcam videos, I have been using non-other than the Windows Movie Maker! Hah! Most of it is just trimming of the videos or combining 2 videos and then trimming them down. That's about it. Need to learn something like Vegas (I think?) My buddy drocsid aka strifemare did show me before..I guess gotta pick up somewhere..

But I have got to make do with what I have now! Keep moving forward and not giving up! More importantly challenging myself of the stage fright issues-LAH!

My own FB Page!

I have decided to open my own Facebook page for the Youtube Channel that I'm running.

This will be a hectic journey for me and a personal one too. I have always had stage fright and I know many out there have them too! 

I've always have stage fright even with just a few people watching me doing my sales presentation. My hands gets cold..words stutter out my mouth..lips trembling..and worst..my brain will not cooperate with my thoughts...I bet most having stage fright feels the same..

This is one of the reasons why I started a Youtube Channel..and doing Live Streaming. It was all good at the beginning as it was just only gameplay and there was not voice recording.

And when I decided to include my own voice for the first time in the 3rd Rocket League video..I started to have thoughts of hundreds of viewers watching..thankfully the BunnyTeam's Leader Zozi and member Kelvin was on the party chat and hearing their voice and talking altogether was comforting

It was when I replayed my video after the Live Stream I noticed it was ONLY my voice! Found out that the other participants in the PS Party Room also require them to check an option for me to record their voice.

This got me even more nervous when I tried my Live Stream of Destiny #1 and those watched/watching it will notice

I know eventually I will have to appear in front of camera (wishful thinking?) and it will be awkward all over again! Haha!

Ending today's second post with officiating my FB page! Visit the page and like the page HERE!

Away for the weekend!

Was away for the weekend. Went back to le gf's home at Frasers Hill, Pahang!

There's a few get-away hills/highlands in Malaysia, and the famous ones are Genting Highland, Cameron Highland and Frasers Hill.

My personal favourite, Frasers and Cameron. These two offer the best relaxation and tranquility.

But the best for relaxation? Definitely Frasers. You're tucked away peacefully away from all the hectic tourism of the other 2 spots. Frasers take away most entertainment and lets you be at peace with yourself as well as with nature

Been returning to le gf's parent's home in Frasers so frequent and I'm enjoying every moment of it. To be able to walk from home to the town without any worry of air pollution (except the last one due to the haze) as well as enjoying the cold breeze...maaaaaan..that's just something hard to describe.

And when it's really cold..just have a cup of nice hot English tea while sitting at the front porch..spacing out..hearing the birds chirp..watching the clouds go over the mountains..it's heavenly..really..maybe it's just the age catching up =s

Le gf dad is also an awesome cook! On Saturday he cooked up awesome pork curry for dinner! Earlier, during afternoon tea..le gf's parents made "Bombe Alaska"..without the fire and alcohol though haha

Photos by le gf

After dinner we drove into town and there was a slight drizzle..and it was super chilly! We stopped by the local cafe and had ginger-black-tea (Teh-O Halia) while sitting at the walk way of the cafe. Cold breeze and hot ginger tea..oh so awesome!

We ended the day slacking and playin Zenonia S on our mobile phones..yeah..we still can't get rid of our phone addiction =s

Woke up Sunday and Uncle was already preparing breakfast, fried bihun (vermicelli)! Had some curry left over from dinner, and mixed it up with the bihun..oh so savory! I had 2 plates!

After stuffing ourself silly..we went for a walk to town..the morning breeze and air is so refreshing. We spaced out for abit and then just sat by a chair overlooking a portion of the mountains/hills.

Walked back home and packed our stuff and got ready to leave back to KL..having withdrawals already! T__T

On the way home, stopped by Impulse Sunway and gotten myself a copy of Destiny: The Taken King Legendary Edition (includes Destiny and 2 expansions).

I tried another live stream while TRYING to commentate the game..MAN it felt awkward! Watch it here:

Stopped the live stream and then played a while longer after that...haha..this Youtube thing requires more confidence in myself..it's definitely a good platform though..as I am yet confident to actually show my face haha! =P

Please do drop by my Youtube Channel and subscribe! I WILL improve over time...I'm still using my Siberia headset to record my voice thus the quality as if it's muffled. Can't afford those funky mics you see used by other Youtubers.. =P

Will try to record my gameplay using PS' video sharing. Need to tweak along with recording my voice

Dashcam - a good decision

Dashcam has been around for quite some time now..only recently I decided to get one after delaying for almost a year

Reason being was to look for a reasonable priced to performance (ie video quality) dash cam

Finally decided to get one in June 2015.

There are just too many douchebag motorist on the road. In Malaysia the most common douchebaggins are:

1. Motorcyclist - speeding in between cars, honking from miles away to stick in their "imaginary" lane between cars. They also sneak in between the front and rear of cars in heavy traffic jams!
2. Cars swerving into lanes without signalling - Not much issue when there's a significant amount of gap between us..some douche LOVES to switch when there is small gap (my definition of small gap: 1 car length)
3. Lorries! - MOST..most of them are MOFOS..they don't care of you as you are smaller than them..and in most cases involving them..these drivers just run away from the scene!
4. Random events - HAHA! This is just for fun!

Here's my 2 videos I've uploaded so far

Youtube Videos

After uploading 2 videos to Youtube for Rocket League "Let's Play"..I've been thinking..should I consider a capture card?

The Live Stream videos is not bad..just that the video quality tend to drop out here and there..perhaps due to the compression and network quality? I have no idea actually..

Due to financial constraints..I've decided to upload..or to be specific have Live Stream "Let's Play"(s) for now

As well as random videos caught on my car's dashcam of douchebag motorists on the road! Or even just pure random videos! Haha!

More to come!

More Rocket League!

Dragged le gf Laineyyz to try Rocket League over the weekend! She definitely had fun! Haha!

We first played offline, we teamed up against the AIs as she get used to the game mechanics.

After a while, suggested that we play splitscreen Online. I was wondering if it would work since her PS Account doesn't have PSN+.

Searched a game and it worked! We played for quite a while till she got a headache! HAHAHA!

And last night we did a Live Stream together! Here it is!

Boy we had fun..although we lost most of the time we played! Especially that one specific game where we lost 8-0! MAAAAAAN..those guys were goooood!

Will post more live stream gaming soon! I'm enjoying this! Haha!

Should we start recording our voices?

My first ever live stream!

Woohoo! Thanks for the people of Sony! They made livestreaming so much easier! Recently they updated the Playstation 4 to include Youtube livestreaming! 

I had my first game of Rocket League last night and I streamed it LIVE! Hooo boy! The game is ADDICTIVE! I'm a little late into the Rocket League scene but heck it was still fun as hell!

Before I knew it I have already streamed for an hour! Each game only lasts for 5 or so minutes but it didn't feel that way!

Here's the video!

Hell! From now on I will stream live if I'm playing this! Will post it here! Hope to join the likes of Markiplier and gang if I ever join their game! Doubt it though..chances are they will create their own private match xD

Pardon the cut out of audio..it was due to copyright issues..it was from the game! It wasn't me hahahaha!

REVIVAL..or somesort?

It's been awhile since I've last blogged! The last post of this blog (you may no longer see it now, HA-HA!) was in 2009! Hell of a 6 years!

So what's new? I've started to dwell into photography..haven't mastered any shots.

Here's the link to my Flickr album! Do drop by and drop some comment!

Was very active in motorsports in 2013. Ended relatively well! However due to financial constraint..ended motorsports spree in 2014. Fun while it lasted!

Ooh ooh! Visit my Youtube Channel too! It's some random videos at the moment but do support! Haha!
