"Merdeka"

Joined Paul and his cousin at B.Feringghi Pasar Malam.I found that night market there is different from my area as it has chinese,malay and indian stalls, a multi-racial night market i would call. Anyway, no planning for tonight Merdeka's eve and most probably will be at home, its going to be jam pack in club and traffic jam at town. Happy birthday Malaysia. emm.. keeps me wondering what if this word "Merdeka" does not exist in Malay language, what would we have to say for our country's national day then ?? Care to give comments here. Anyway, Happy Birthday Malaysia!

Not so sun-day on a Sunday

Didnt happened to go Chic! yesterday night as friend last minute called it off + the rain made me lazy to drive down town to hang out; slept extremely early, woke up so early, had Dim Sum with parents (its been so long that i cant remember when was the last time though) ;) Hang out Ton's house; he cracked his Microsoft X-Box Console and replaced it with a Maxtor 200GB hard drive!! The original ones came with only 8GB hard drive space. Personally i think X-box is such an awsome console, i mean after it has loaded in with the different software, the box even has a network port which is so cool, you can get those files at your pc, play emulators and x-box games like Metalslug and because it has a network, you can connect to Shoutcast view MTV, play OnlineRadio, read BBC news in RSS, refer local weather reports. You can customise the skin of the main interface, which makes your X-Box into Windows Media Center; later on, Paul called up to go geocache at Bkt Gambir but weather didnt allowed us but just to hang out at Ton's house.

Like the other day, Celcom Big Rides event was held there to celebrate the upcoming national day and this morning PanGlobal rocks gigs there, organized by musiccanteen.com .Evening, went netcity,fettes park for a game, now all of their PCs are brand new, Athlon64 2800+ ,512mb RAM because of game software license issue which the authorities confiscated all the rigs. Anyway, i'll be going to chic! tonight with Tim. Dj Daiya Kobayashi from Japan is there to spin, a resident dj at California Club, Shanghai. Daiya info at http://www.cityweekend.com.cn/en/shanghai/stories/A00000000001415 I've been listening to this marvellous tunes mixed by Kaskade, House of OM which the tunes keeps repeating on my mind... its so nice especially the first track by David Morales - Here I Am (Kaskade's Mix).

She is doing fine over there at melbourne, going to Sydney a week after. Had a really nice conversation; weather a bit cold there, she missed food in Penang already, hehe.. feeling joyous after the call ;-D It rain when i was on my way back to home, guess the month that i hate the most has arrived, "Raining Season" Well.. not for now comparing to last time that i was only riding a motorbike, although its just a small car that i own now but feeling satisfied. .

Experienced video shoot out

Joe invited me again for the Farlim group new condo promo video shoot out at his place, since Monday it was a failure because of bad weather so they are going to make it right today late evening.Now, I can imagine that being a director job is hard and for just a few mins or seconds of video, it needs lots of preparations and planning....

Not made in Korea

Guess what ? Korea trip cancel! Reason ?! Those people at M-Link said it was a mistake, what the **** mistake is this, by telling you are being offered a trip to Korea by Microsoft and now its totally off!! I am just guessing, they are keeping it for their own employee or this trip is meant for 'boss only'. Anyhow, i guess i have no 'fate' of going overseas... . . .ahh! **** it.

Going to Made in Korea

Evening, got notified by boss that i am going to Korea this 17-20 Sept. I was shocked at first place, as what they said this trip is offered by Microsoft as we managed to hit their sales target. Asked me to bring my passport tomorrow.. I just dont believe that .... i am going to Korea !!

KimGary in Gurney Plaza,Penang!

Finally can have KimGary nice and delicious food in Gurney Plaza,Penang! I like the trendy interior design of the restaurant, especially the frame, which is awsome! I ordered the rich and filling 'French toast' and a set lunch meal which is a beef spagetti. What a fulfilling lunch i had today! Walked pass a bookstore, this is the bookstore where i missed out buying the world map which costs RM60,laminated,very cheap, however today i was so lucky, immediately after notice the world map,grabbed it and paid! To me, i tend to have the concept of, if i have no chance to go overseas travelling but at least i know the location of the country! ;)
Basically went Gurney Plaza atrium to check out the small Zu http://www.zu.com.my roadshow on how they display the product and demo units in the cupboard shelves. The correct way of display products should be this way (picture below) instead of just putting stocks inside the cupboard shelves.

Life of Pablo Escobar during teen

Currently reading this book Killing Pablo by Mark Bowden.Wonder how was the life of the world's most notorious drug lord?? Read on (interesting)....
"Colombian dope was, of course, plentiful and highly potent, a fact that the world's marijuana-toking millions quickly discovered. It was soon the worldwide gold standard for pot.Pablo became a heavy doper early on and stayed that way throughout his life, sleeping until one or two in the afternoon, lighting up not long after waking up, and staying stoned for the rest of the day and night." How cool was that..eeh!

Continuous night on Saturday till Sun comes out

Didnt think of going to Summer Concert at Esplanade, would prefer to watch it on 8TV, they were broadcasting live ; Thought of hanging out with Pauline at bed, belissa row as they have wireless connection there, but no luck tonight, it was full house, switch to SegaFredo, almost full house, the place we got didnt have power outlet, so the laptop battery can't really last long, as i was helping with her resume posting on jobstreet, saw an interesting writeout about US hackers on NST paper ; Went off to Craven Cafe to meet up with her sister till very late ; we were thinking to have Dim Sum (in front of KDU) in just a couple of hours later, it was an interesting experience as i never had Dim Sum at 7am in the morning at town! The weather was amazingly nice, raining ... good for wiping off the haze :-D As i noticed at that hour of time, early birds rapidly started to flock in to have Dim Sum ; funny, i wasn't really feeling well after taking that early Dim Sum which has to put my stomach in work at this early morning or maybe i took a puff in such a morning hour... emmm. Anyway, i enjoyed.. :)

My Tribal Leo Tattoo

Updated photo captured by ONO (my tattooist of the day) - Details photos
ReQuote from July 29, 2005: "Of course, there is meaning on my tattoo design and the way it is located on my left arm. Its a tribal Leo sign, which will always reminds me as a born of Leo, has to be strong in any situation, be confident and be determined. The meaning of putting the tattoo on my left arm was that i am a right-handed,so left means the weaker side of me yet reminding me to be what i suppose to be.As for my past,i was weak,ones who find no confident. Thats why i like so much on Lance Armstong wristband "Live Strong". "
