phew... quite a day... *nu ma, nu ma iei...*

well.. it has really been quite a day...

left my house at about 10.20am...
my dad gave a friend of mine, Chung Sun, and me a lift to the LRT station on his way to church...
we were going to KLCC for the PC fair...

there we were... at the convention centre...
we walked around... and well... other than the gadgets and devices on show... other "things" were also on our list to look at... "living things"... ;) not to be cheeky... but... well... it's our nature... right?... nothing wrong if our minds' right... ;P
so... anyway... we walked and looked around... we didn't have anything to buy in particular... just to let time pass... and err.. well... not be bored at home...

we saw that mp3s just got cheaper... AGAIN...
this time.. the cheapest we saw was RM69 only!!...
i looked at Sunny (my friends nickname) and he just shook his head...
that's because he bought a RM88 mp3 the last pc fair...
and it ended up.. he could not put songs into the mp3.. it was totally useless...
but lucky for him... somehow... one of his friends lost that mp3... and... well... he payed Sunny for it!... talk about luck... :P

we walked through the halls pretty fast... and end up outside of the convention hall by around 12pm... the shortest time i ever spent in a PC fair...

then.. we pondered what to do... and decided to WALK to Low Yat plaza (sungei wang, Time Square, and Imbi plaza? that area lah...)
yup.. that was not a typing error... we really WALKED... after i asked for the direction of Time Square from a guard outside KLCC... we started walking...
we walked till the Bukit Nanas Monorail station... and there is where i made a mistake...
we were at a T-junction... so... if we followed the monorail track... we were sure to reach Sungei Wang / Time Square... but... BUT... instead of going toward sungei wang... we walked towards Chow Kit... i admit... it was my mistake... my decision...
we walked till Raja Chulan station and still did not know we were walking in the wrong direction... and continued following the tracks... till we came to a very familiar road... i looked at the road... and hit my fore-head... we were on JALAN IPOH... the road i am so d*mned used to.. (for those who don't know.. i study in Chong Hwa Ind... which is near Jalan Ipoh)...
so.. we were... as i said... walking towards the Chow Kit Monorail station... instead of the Bukit Bintang station... we turned back and took the monorail (no.. not walk) from Raja Chulan station to the Bukit Bintang station... haih... big mistake... but quite good exercise though... ;P and anyway... i learned how to walk from KLCC to Time Square... ;) that might save me some $$$ next time... (though i wasted some this time... swt..)

we went into sungei wang first... and looked for a friend... who was working at Echo Park... then we had lunch in the food court on the 4th floor..
then... we went to Low Yat... where i bought NFS Most Wanted and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory... both PC DVD games... which cost me RM30 (!)... both... not each... ^^" (haven't tried playing them... mayb nxt week... when i have more time...)
then... we went into E-zone... hoping to see some people we know... which we didn't... played a round of Time Crisis II... and well... with nothing to do left...
went towards the Monorail station... and well... go home! :|

one funny incident... (may not b too funny though... XP)
we took the monorail till the Bukit Nanas station and walked to the Dang Wangi LRT station...
there... we could not get on the LRT 3 times... because it was so so sooooo congested... everybody was going to KLCC... it was packed like SARDINE... until the fourth time... i had enough... i literally squeezed myself in... and when i looked back... the door was closing... and Sunny was still outside... swt...
then... THEN...
at KLCC... everybody wanted to come out... so.. I... who was standing at the door.. had to just go out and let the crowd out... and waited with the crowd outside to get into the LRT... and... guess what happened... the door closed before i could get on... DOUBLE SWT...
i waited for the next one.. and got on it... and saw Sunny on it too... who... to my surprise.. did not show any sign of being surpriesed... as though he expected this to happen... swt...

and well... i came home (DUH)... nothing much to be said there...

Been wondering what the *nu ma, numa iei...* in my title mean?..
well... actually... it is from a song called Dragostea Din Tei (which means Love From The Linden Trees)... it is actually a Romanian song... originally sung by a group called Haiducii (which means The Outlaws)... then sung by a group called O-Zone...

doesn't sound familiar??...

well... think the sound track from Chicken Little... the one in the trailer...
noe of it already??... ah... tat's the one...

well... what is this all about?... it has been in my head for quite some time... just can't get it out...

it all started like this...

while me and Sunny were in the PC fair... we heard this song being played many times... at different booths... i had wanted to download that song... but did not know the title... so Sunny told me it was the soundtrack from Chicken Little (which... i aint so sure... cause i could not find it on the chicken little OS CD)... so... when i came home... i tried to look for it... i searched Chicken Little Soundtrack in LimeWire... then a bunch of results came out... most with Numa Numa at the back... i just downloaded it and... i had it!.. but... it didn't stop there...
i felt curious... i thought the lyrics were like "Know my, Know my name.." but it turned out it wasn't... it was in some other language... and the title... Numa Numa... so i searched it... and guess what... i found much much more...

IT IS / WAS A PHENOMENON on the internet!!... something to do with a fat 19 year old american dancing in front of his computer... lip-sync"ing" to this song...

i am currently doing some research on this... so... stay tuned!... there will be more updates to this NUMA NUMA DANCE phenomenon!...

(man.. i still can't get it out of my mind... IT IS ADDICTIVE!!... :P)
