"Don't look for the silver lining when gold is better."
Hey, guys. It's been a while, I know. I haven't had time to get online lately, and every time that I did get online, I was too busy catching up on things online (such as finishing moves on an online chess site before my turn expires and chatting with people I haven't chatted to in a long time) to post a post. (That sounds weird, by the way) Well, loads of things have been happening lately. Since it's too much of a bother to list them all, I'll just highlight certain things.
I had my first gig (as a drummer) on the third of this month, and the best thing was, I didn't mess up! Woo hoo! Man, it was a fun experience. I even managed to meet a few new friends, whose names are Prabu, Pooven and Iranus. In that order. Prabu was the second guitarist, Pooven is his brother and Iranus is both their cousin and the other drummer.
I did my band practice at my pet brother's house (I'm still not saying his name just in case reads it, even though I'm making it kinda obvious), you know, the one who's sister I like? To those wondering, no, he didn't give her the note. He said that it was "too dangerous". He stated the fact that she might show it to her parents, and since their mum knows that I like her, my cover would (might, at least) get blown. "Ka-ba-BOOM" blown.
To those curious, I managed to start a conversation with her. It wasn't that hard, but as I might have stated in an earlier post (I'm not sure whether I did or not) we are complete opposites. I'm loud, she's quiet. I'm more of an extrovert, she's more of an introvert. I smile a lot (to the point of too much), she rarely smiles (to the point where her mum even said that they should put it into a time capsule. "It", being her smile on a camcorder.)
I'm not sure whether this is relevant or not, but according to her brother (who is my friend and pet brother, as I say again) she's smiling and talking more since I left. I'm not sure whether it was my doing or not, but if it was, I was but one word to say to that: Cool!

Later in the month (the eight), my cousin (or my Mum's friend's son; I'm not really sure which) slept over. Earlier that day, I went to this career consultant person from the UK with my friend to get our careers... "Consulted". I ended up getting way different than from what I wanted (which were a pilot and/or accountant). It was a lot of medical careers, oddly. Later I realized that I did something I always did in chess: I over thought a couple of the questions. Man, was I pissed off when I realized that. It meant that I could have actually gotten either "accountant" and/or "pilot". At least there's a "re-meet" later on next year. (It's because as I'm maturing, I'll start thinking differently, therefore I may get different career choices)
My cousin (or friend. Like I said earlier, I'm not sure) and I played a game called "Spy VS Spy", where we basically just have to kill each other, get the four secret items, and get the Hell out of there, and he went and back stabbed me. The way he did it was smart, but I'm still angry about it. At least we teamed up again later on, and he didn't back stab me.
Remember the dudes Prabu, Pooven and Iranus that I was talking about earlier? Well, we (my cousin/friend and me) were invited to an open house at Prabu and Pooven's house. It was a Deepavali open house, and we played with the firecrackers. Later in the house, the guys started dancing the "Shuffle", if you've heard of it. Nabil (my cousin/friend) kept pushing me in.
Other than that, at my cousin's house, I learned a few new magic tricks. My cousin was good, but I could see right through them. Must be a gift of mine. (Okay, big head of mine. Time to swell down) He even gave me a couple of the sites where he learned the tricks. For those interested, the websites will be added in the end of this post.
Then, on Wednesday (the 14th) I won something on FLyFM! (It's a radio station, to those who don't live in Malaysia and/or have never heard of it) It was awesome! I won four movie tickets to a movie called... A movie called... Well, it has "Universe" in it, that's all I can remember. I even won a Timex (or is it "TimeX"?) watch. The best part? I only sent one SMS (SMS means texting, to those who don't know). Was I lucky or what?
The only drawback to that, however, is the fact that I can't collect the prize myself. I have to collect it 20th of November, and at that time I'll be in LA, off on holiday. I'll be leaving on the 18th. Don't worry, I'll post as soon as I get back. Or, as soon as I get on a computer. That's a promise. If I can, I'll even put in pictures of the trip.
That's enough for one post, I guess.
Till next time,

P.S. The magic trick sites can be found in Google. Sorry, guys, but I promised my cousin about not telling anyone else about it, and that includes YOU.
