Considering post-mortem fascinations.

Ok, ok, considering the fact that I made that title up was the pure addiction of watching "The Mentalist". It is a good TV show anyway, I got hooked up with it since I saw the show in Birmingham last time. Oh, I will post some pictures when I was there, plus the synopsis of the TV show which you lot may find it interesting for it to read. You know, for once, I am not interested nor intrigued to watch crime TV shows because probably I don't want to watch it, but since "The Mentalist" has these kinds of elements, plus, comedy on the side makes it all look more interesting. What's more interesting about this is, you don't get to see the main character straight away knows who kills the person in the middle of the show, with the glimpse of mind games around suspects and asking nonsense (but highly theoratical and acceptable though illegal ways) of carving out information might seem a bit out of hand, considering he (yup, folks, it's a he) uses it for his own benefit and a great source of information for the CBI (Califonia Bureau of Investigation). Sadly enough, I just don't like when I get hooked on to a show and then it is on hiatus for a while (I just found that out when I logged on to eztv website an hour ago) but anyway, since it will be back on the end of this month, expect to see more mystery solving cases with a bit of laughter and more "WTF is Red John".

Something interesting about this "Red John" really questions me a lot. A murderer, nonetheless, one of the greatest murders on that show, never reveals itself but it shows signs after a murder with a picture of a smiley like this:


A stained blood of the his/her prey and then draws this on the wall of the victim's place and then goes away. Next day, comes the CBI, finds this out, and the mentalist goes disappearing (or daydreaming) about his past (his child and wife was killed by this sociopath). Oh well, I shall give you a synopsis of the story now.

The Mentalist.

Simon Baker as Patrick Jane, an independent consultant with the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI), who has a remarkable track record for solving serious crimes by using his razor sharp skills of observation. Within the Bureau, Jane is notorious for his blatant lack of protocol and his semi-celebrity past as a psychic medium, whose paranormal abilities he now admits he feigned. Jane's role in cracking a series of tough high-profile cases is greatly valued by his fellow agents.

However, no-nonsense Senior Agent Teresa Lisbon openly resists having Jane in her unit and alternates between reluctantly acknowledging Jane's usefulness and blasting him for his theatrics, narcissism and dangerous lack of boundaries. Lisbon's team includes agents Kimball Cho, Wayne Rigsby and rookie member Grace Van Pelt, who all think Jane's a loose cannon but admire his charm and knack for clearing cases.

I currently urged all people who are into this kind of thing to watch the show. It is really, really good. Ok, moving on. What did I do during these Easter holidays right after I have done my coursework and stuff. Ok, for starters, I had made plans, going to Birmingham (check and done) and then Reading (Check but not done, still here). Well to tell you the truth, I am at the Reading Uni library with my friends though, they are studying and whilst I take the full advantage of the Internet here and use this time to blog and download stuff, while I do that I will blog and upload some pictures just to fill my blog for a while. Okay, I will upload pictures of when I was still in Birmingham. The destinations while I was in Birm was The City (Bullring), Aston Villa (Villa Park), Alton Towers (Ottoxeter) and Pershore Road.


Starting with the City:


That night, Pershore Road:



The next day, Alton Towers:



and then the rest of the days just relaxed, chilling with the BiBers and then home on Monday. Guys from BiBers, thank you for your kind reception for my stay in Birmingham last week, I did have fun and it was a good memory for me to keep in a while. I wish I could stay longer but then I can't, so sorry guys, will be coming there if I have the time yes? Mus thank you for introducing the show "The Mentalist" (I am hooked now), Kash, Nisa, Naili and Nawir, thank you for letting me stay at your house for the whole duration whilst I am in Birm, the rest of the guys from Pershore Road, Azrul, Mali, Abu (sorry boss, aku nda tau di mana tampat tinggal mu), Tony (Van Der Sar ba tu..), Mus, Hanif, Huda.. thank you all guys!.

Now, I will upload other pictures that I may deemed irrelevent to the blog but somehow or somewhat related to what I am doing for the past 2 weeks from now.

First up, these three pictures below is from when I was playing Paintball somewhere in London. It was a last minute thing though, since I was invited by my friends jusr to fill up the amount of people to equalise each sides. We were separated into gold and wasps team. Anyhow, the Wasps team won considering the number of people they have was very overpowering for the Gold, it was an unporportional team. Here are three pictures I just put in here just to show you.


The next two pictures is from the UMNO football tournament. We went there just to cheer for the Brunei Team and sadly enough, they got the 3rd spot. It was a disappointment considering the fact that they were the champions of last years UMNO tournament. Oh well, here's some pictures as well.


Hmm, I don't know what to put in here. Oh yeah, a while back, I was laughing at this one video I just knew yesterday. I know this video sounds a bit racial to some people, but if you take it as a joke then don't worry, it will not harm anyone. It is just a joke, SERIOUSLY.



Another video that I stumbled upon was on Facebook. Anyone remembers Kuch Kuch Hota Hai? Oh yes, If you guys have watched this movie in the year 2000, with your family, and then shed tears watching it and then you will remember this video (apparently for me, it was the most teardropping movie I have ever seen, from one scene to the next, makes your heart drop and then tears flow out of your eyes like the water pipes burst). Well here's the music video.



This music video is where the scene of where Anjali (after high school) met this guy and this is where they got engaged or married I think. I used to think that Indian marriage was like this, all dancing randomly throughout and expecting they know the dances as if it was already routine for them at weddings.

Oh yeah, now that reminds me of this video then, a movie called Mohabbatein. It was the same thing that happened to me when I watched Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Tears going down from my eyes as well.



This is a sad song. I was thinking of that other song but oh well. Anyway, I am done with this blog session. I will find some more useful articles for me to write later on. Cheerios.
