Hi, previously, for my work-out routine, I consume 21st century weight gain 3 times a day on work-out days( before + after work-out and before sleep) and 1-2 days on non-work out days.

Now, I'm planning to up my game and consume these instead..

Before + after work-out : ON Whey Protein Gold Standard http://www.dpsnutrition.net/get_item_on500.htm

Before sleep : GNC Pro Performance Myocell-SR http://www.gnclivewell.com.au/view/190/Pro...Myocell-SR.aspx

For amount, I'm planning to take as stated in the box.

I'm 18-19 years old, about 5 feet 7/ 5 feet 8. I think I'm about 60-70 kg. I eat about 4-5 meals a day.

What do you guys think? Am I going too fast? If so, how should my intake be?

bpwx — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 23:15:38 +0800

The title speaks for itself. I'm looking to buy power ranger toys, but ONLY the megazords, the ones where they can combine. Preferably the ones from the VERY FIRST power ranger series, like Titanus, Megazord etc etc. If any of you guys have any, just pm me for a deal

MTV World Stage Tickets 2009 at Sunway for sale

bpwx — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 00:45:06 +0800

I have a 2 MTV World Stage Tickets 2009 for sale. It's to be held this coming August 15th. I wanted to go but unfortunately I can't make it due to some commitments. Hence, the painful decision to sell sad.gif. Don't worry, I'm not some crazy lunatic who wants RM100+ for EACH ticket. As long as I'm offered a reasonable price, it'll be considered. I prefer meeting up face to face for sale. No selling by mail. Erm, preferably areas around PJ but I can get to the place by LRT or any public transport, then I'm ok with it. I'd consider selling each ticket for as low as RM50 each.

Take note, the one I'm having is just a voucher, entitling you to redeem two tickets in Sunway at the concert day itself.. But still the same la. Still 2 tickets

A levels terminology

bpwx — Fri, 15 May 2009 13:32:10 +0800

A stupid question, but as I was looking for places to study after my A levels, I came across this requirement as one of them if I were to do law in ATC. "2 principals".

What does a principal mean? An "A" all the way to an "E"?

Self-learning keyboard?

bpwx — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 17:09:05 +0800

I'm thinking of self-learning the keyboard.. Aiming to learn melodies, chords, those kind of stuff...

Is self-learning the keyboard as simple as self-learning the guitar?

And any recommendations for a good beginner keyboard? My budget's around RM300-400...

Noobie guitar question

bpwx — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 22:07:15 +0800

Here's the thing, I own an Ibanez GRG170Dx and I wanna play acoustic stuff on it too, instead of just rock, metal, those kind of stuff...

I heard that normally, when playing an electric guitar, you just use down strums? I mean, I'm sure down+up strums, chucks, are also applicable when playing the electric guitar right? Especially while playing the acoustic songs?

Recording microphone for PC to sing

bpwx — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 22:43:19 +0800

Ok here's what I need help on. I'm planning to record myself sing and I need a decent microphone(I'm not saying I'm a good singer needing a GOOD mic, but at least I want to record my REAL voice as some cacat microphones may distort my voice)..

When I say microphone, I'm talking about the one that's connected to the PC basically...

My budget is about rm100-rm200... Is it enough?

Any particular brands/models which are recommended?

bpwx — Tue, 06 May 2008 20:38:07 +0800

Basically I'm just planning to kill time by going Form 6 la... Isit possible? If somehow I choose Form 6, will I somehow be stuck with Form 6 or something?

I've decided to go for the July Intake for A levels at KBU(Edexcel)... I've chosen

Questions :

1. I'm kinda confused on whether to choose Further Mathematics or Physics as my 4th subject.... Any suggestions?

3. I heard that can bring books in for the exam? Is it true?

Confused about HELP fee structure for A levels

bpwx — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 20:21:54 +0800

Here's the link for the fee structure :

http://www.help.edu.my/download/admission/...d%201122007.pdf

I'm just wondering, they didn't state the price for the exam fees, only the remarking exam fees, so my question is :

Is the total course fee inclusive of the exam fees as well?

English Literature in A levels Edexcel

bpwx — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 12:46:20 +0800

I know all subjects in A levels are hard la, so English Lit wouldnt be an exception, but I heard that without a SPM background, it would be extra-harder... Well, I'm thinking of taking English Literature as a subject for my A Levels from the London Board(Edexcel) and I'm just wondering, how is it? Is a SPM background of English Literature really necessary?

bpwx — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 21:40:52 +0800

Add Math Problem regarding Intergration

bpwx — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 21:58:34 +0800

Hey, guys, help me out with this part :

You know in Add math chapter 3 for Form 5, the intergration part, why can't we use the substitution method when the numbers in the bracket are the power of 1? I heard that we can't... I think I explained it badly here so I'll give an example ( the \ symbol is the intergration symbol):

Lets say I want to intergrate \ (6x - 3) dx. If I use the normal method, I would get 3x^2 - 3x + c.

BUT if I were to use the substitution method, I would get 3x^2 - 3x + 3/4 + c

I thought they both were suppose to lead to the same answers?

Anthology or Source?

bpwx — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 22:55:01 +0800

I was thinking of buying CS to play online. Which should I buy? Anthology or Source? I want to buy Anthology but I'm afraid they're gonna change it to Source next year...

Disconnects from the Internet after this is shown

bpwx — Mon, 03 Sep 2007 14:18:53 +0800

Before this I had no problems until I sent it to one shop to reformat. So now, after I got my computer back and installed the crap I had, for some reason, I keep disconnecting from the Internet after this is pops up =

[attachmentid=288696]

The thing is, after I press 'OK' or 'Cancel', I get disconnected from the Internet. I tried pressing the small 2 computers icon down there to check my connection status but nothing pops up which is weird as normally it should with the connection status.....

However, if I don't press anything on the thing that pops up that makes me disconnect and resume my normal stuff and ignoring it, leaving the window there, I can continue with my internet smoothly.....

Any ways on solving this problem? Thanks......
