Smart Parts Impulse 2009 Intro Video

Finally, a video of the new Smart Parts Impulse has been made, and i mean a real video with the real marker. The video is taken from BuyPBL-Paintball.com. Enjoy...

PS - The video player might be slow to load. Be patient, it's worth it...

This is another video taken in Bitburg Germany, probably in Smart Parts' booth.

Everywhere's Got Talent

I've been listening to this guy for the last few days, his voice is so keat! I hadn't been following this year's season of American Idol (actually i haven't followed any season of the show), but after reading about this Adam Lambert guy everywhere - in the newspaper, on the internet, on radio - i've decided to check him out on YouTube, and boy was he good....

Listen for yourself.

I love this performance the most, Adam performing Mad World. Check out his facial expression.

A clearer studio version

While looking for more Adam's video, i stumbled upon another reality show talent - Susan Boyle from Scotland.

3:20 - Priceless Simon Cowell moment, lol...

Her face is like the bansan auntie, but her voice is another story. Imagine the bansan auntie you see at the market suddenly sing like this.... OMG, siao ki.

So many talented people waiting to be discovered...

Got my jersey liao!!

Finally bought myself a jersey, got it from KCHL. Initially i was waiting for the team jersey - the Planet Eclipse 2009 - to arrive, but i need one by this weekend for MY-NPL Kuantan, plus i was offered a very good deal on the Proto 2008.


IMO, the 2008 edition is the yeng-est among all Proto jerseys. I like the shoulder padding with grey stripes on it. Although it comes with thumb loops, I'll have to play without using them cause the sleeves are too short for me, even for an XL.

Haven't tried it on the field yet, hopefully it'll serve me well in Kuantan... :)

14th June

The field was low on paint and gas supply, each of us only get to shoot so few pellets, all with below 2000psi in our tanks.

Learnt one important thing today - the dives you see so often done by the pros are not for yeng-ness, it's actually very useful in staying alive! I'm still a lousy diver - hitting my loader on the ground and break paint, getting my barrel stuck in the ground, landing in awkward positions.... really need to work on dives after coming back from Kuantan.

Notes to self:

• Dive into hard-to-get-to bunkers to avoid getting shot. Don't hesitate when diving, just do it!
• Wrap the bunker and put your opponents in before proceeding to the next bunker, you'll have a higher possibility of making it alive.
  

13th June

It's been more than a month I haven't went for paintball on Saturdays. This morning felt so lazy to go, no mood. But Captain wants us all to attend because My-NPL is just a week away. I'm glad i went because Jeff from X-Pursuit was there, and boy was he fast...

Learned from him to be more relaxed in a game. I dont mean lenggang-lenggang on the field, but to stay focus and never panic. 1st and 2nd game, the 5 of us NPL-bound players played against Shion, Jeff, and Vincent, 5on3. With the X-Pursuit players working as a team, it's hard to beat them. We lost both games. They really proved that the tables can still be turned even if the team is down on bodies, the key is to communicate, work as a team and S-Y-N-C-H-R-O-N-I-S-E!!

Changed the field layout to Field 3 of My-NPL Kuantan under the hot afternoon sun. An hour into it and I was already so exhausted and thirsty, but Jeff the Polis was still hard at work, hardly seem tired, really 不简单。。。

I got two blisters on my hand from hammering the bunkers, big and round. Can't show any pics cause my phone is rosak :(

Will have to buy a new phone soon... any recommendations?

Notes to self:

• Relax and don't panic, keep calm and do what you have to do. Instead of feeling all tensed, just enjoy the game :)
• Work with your snakeman, don't rush up alone, you'll only hurt the team by ending up getting shot. SYNCHRONIZE!!
• Talk to your teammates. Even if you can't see anything in front of you and have no idea where your opponents are, talk back by repeating what your teammates shouted so they'll know you've heard them and are still alive.
  

Marq Victory Photoshopped

Saw these on PBNation. Some guy PS-anodized these Marq Victories. Previously I thought the Victory was not so nice looking compared to other high-end markers, but after going through these pics I'm actually starting to see their beauty. Nice...
