Fcuking great Redzone party @ Cocos Penang!

2006-03-11T23:59:00.000+08:00

...last minute, registered free entrance ticket to Redzone Tour 2006, F1 party at Cocos, Upper Penang Road (which is just down my office building).. limited 1000 tickets available, me and my cousin was lucky enough to get a free ticket..hehehe.. lucky us . .the entrance ticket is RM20 + 1 drink, it's very reasonable price considering you'll have 7 freaking fine rocking Djs + 2 vjs (lighting effects)

Was early there at 6pm for the ticket, hehe.. found out the place was filled!! yeaah, but most of them are crew and promoters... ehehe.. too early.. played some F1 games there and won a nice red cap with your own prefix design.. cool!

I was totally thrilled by the sound system when i first step in.. The sound systems at Redzone was WAY BETTER 100x THAN the last party i had during New Year Eve, at Flix organized by GrooveTemple. . no comparable!

Totally enjoyed and grooving all night long... Tremendously awsome tracks by Dj Gabriel, Brent Burns, Joey G and the most amazing play by Tabla Maniam!! Of course not to forget, our local female Dj Desire and Roxy who rocks the indoor dancefloor Wooohoo!

Redzone Tour 2006 was the best party ever !!!

Final Destination 3 sucks!

2006-03-08T11:36:00.000+08:00

i would say other than the thrill, NOTHING really makes this movie so great about.I have no idea, why GSC and radio station (988,chinese radio station) hype up how great this movie is.. Gusshh...It is just some normal movie, watch how the tragedy happened from the beginning till the end, however i have to emphasize "THIS IS NOT A MOVIE FOR WEAK-HEARTED PERSON"
I find it not interesting and not worth-while to watch because most of the tragedies are ALL PLANNED OUT and everything was in order. .

2006-03-08T02:20:00.000+08:00

Last sunday evening, just right outside of my house, 3 man from Majlis Perbandaran Pulau Pinang (MPPP) were putting some trap for pigeon, it is for the precaution of birdflu epidemic. . Kinda surprise that they were working on my lazy sunday though...

Are you a traffic jammer routine taker?

2006-03-07T23:50:00.000+08:00

..being home early after work is something i don't usually do. . however, today had this feeling to head home early. . unfortunately for me, i got stuck in traffic jam, although the jam wasn't so bad, but i feel it's really time wasting for me and not to mention the "FUEL" wasted!!

..Usually traffic on my way home from work is smooth all the way... heheheh :D I guess, for those who go home punctually after work to stuck in a traffic jam is part of their routine.
Anyhow, it took me an hour plus to reach home ,still consider lucky i'm not living in KL, normally it takes me 30minutes if i go back at around 8pm.

Vietnam traditional green bean cake with very unique box

2006-01-23T22:50:00.000+08:00

A gift from a customer who recently visited Vietnam, at first sight of the box i thought it was some God-praying-materials or joss stick. Surprisingly, i've found out, the content inside it's traditional green bean cake from Vietnam. Looking at the wrapping, it didn't look like something we can eat and though the cutout windows on the box, i can see its packed with small little boxes, it looked like some matchbox-like fire crackers. .

Some camouflage moth

2006-01-22T10:47:00.000+08:00

You can't actually notice this small little moth by far, but anyhow i noticed of its present on my windows frame. This little insect has the same colour as the wooden frame, it stays very still and close to the wooden frame like its camouflage itself. .

Just some roots like art

2006-01-21T00:15:00.000+08:00

This one really caught my attention, have you seen an overgrown roots plastering as a form of an art on a toilet wall at kopitiam ??

Autosurf website being hacked

2006-01-19T22:50:00.000+08:00

"Bak Kut Teh" instant noodle

2006-01-08T18:45:00.000+08:00

Tasted one of the most nice flavoured and delicious instant cook noodle, "Bak Kut Teh" instant noodle! Just out on the market recently, the flavour is much like with the real "Bak Kut Teh", and guess what i've found on Wikipedia,

. .Generally it is cooked in a clay pot with various parts of the pig, varieties of mushroom, lettuce, and dried tofu sheets or pieces (taufu pok). The soup itself is a broth which consists of several herbs and spices (including star anise, cinnamon, cloves and garlic) which have been boiled together with soup bones for many hours. Light and dark soy sauce are also added to the soup during cooking, with varying amounts depending on the variant. .

I was totally amazed with the Wikipedia result! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bak_kut_teh

Year 2005 is coming to an end.. Thinking back, many incident and happenings passed me by and i have to say, I'm glad whatever that happened before. . an experience that will not happen for the second time and thank God i've learned and move on.. . As for the days to come, the same principle in me is to live out everyday as if your last, you really can't predict what's really going to happen in next minute, life is real short.. . appreciate what you own and don't need to envy what you don't have, things will come to you if its destinated to be yours. . Life out positively by listening to my favourite "uplifting house music" and chill with " downtempo jazz " " funky bossanova " tracks.. awsome!!

Thought for Christmas day

2005-12-25T18:03:00.000+08:00

"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights."

"I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."

"I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as "making a life."

"I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."

"I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision."

"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."

"I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back."

"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Pizza Hut Malaysia sucks

2005-12-25T12:39:00.000+08:00

If you are thinking to taste the latest promotion 'Mystical Mediterranean Feast' from Pizza Hut.. My advice would be.. DON'T EVER THINK TO TRY! I tried one of the new menu 'Greek Moussaka' lasagna. . At first glance of it, YOU CAN BE SURE, IT DEFINATELY WON'T TASTE GOOD!
We'll do a comparison of how nice it looked on the menu and the lasagna being served. If you notice, the lasagna was overcooked and cheese around the bowl was burnt, futhermore the portion of lasagna can't even fit a kid!!
Taken at Pizza Hut, Sunshine Square, Bayan Baru, Penang.

Nightmare before Christmas+Vincent+Frankenweenie

2005-12-24T22:49:00.000+08:00

Friends and colleague who happened to ask where i hang out during Christmas eve, after i have told them i was at home for the night, almost all of them didn't believe that i actually stayed at home.. Initially, didn't plan for hang out, thinking... I wouldn't want to get stuck in massive traffic jam in town or even worst go to the clubs and get 'sardinated' in there by paying double for cover charge. Anyway, its was good not hanging out during christmas eve, as i truly in need of rest, due to the 2 days of tiring jobs to be completed before Christmas to monitor CityBayview Hotel night auditing and recover the "super-urgent" one and only running server in that hotel which strained me and my colleague till 5.30 in the morning!
Enjoyed watching this classic Christmas movie titled "The nightmare before Christmas" by Tim Burton on DVD. The characters are amazingly and beautifully created by 100+ puppet and modelling makers and it took nearly 3 years to complete the movie!
I also like Tim Burton's early films titled: "Vincent" and "Frankenweenie" which both films are in black and white (which is cool)
The film titled "Vincent" which tells a story of a boy's named Vincent who thinks and imagine too much and got himself paronoid.. which i believe Tim Burton got the film idea from a mental hospital in Australia (St.Vincent's Mental Health) ... LoL :D
Meanwhile, "Frankenweenie" is about a boy "electrify" a beloved dead doggy into life.. similiar to Mr. Frankenstein

Holiday mood, Disember ?

2005-12-19T23:59:00.000+08:00

Month of Disember ... does it means you have to be on leave and go somewhere, someplace for holidays or breakaway ??? WELL... HOW I WISH.. was in the office lift, 3 familiar faces dressing up so casually, holding luggage bag leaving off office... they were definately having "Company trip"... Will my office ever gonna have company trip ?? I don't mind if it's just local holiday spots.. Some friends of mine, company offered trip to Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong (this year). . A single word to describe 'envy'

Just so coincidence or a sign ?

2005-11-25T22:17:00.000+08:00

During yesterday evening meeting, got disturbed by zu customer, she is a fussy, hard-to-handle and frustrated person. Complained that her newly bought Samsung YH-J70 can't able to do playlist, been learning how to use for 2 days, so difficult to use..blaa..blaa.blaa. From the way i heard it, this for sure 'user problem'. Had an appointment with her this morning, at first glance she looks very familiar but i dont bothered to ask her further, just save my time and solve the problem, however she kept 'questioning' me and i just simply answered her.Later, she figured out her way, confirmed that i'm from the church same as hers. Think about it now, weeell, its true..
Did some grocery shopping at Cold Storage. So surprised and reluctant to have met up with a deacon daugther. It has been more than a year now, since i quit going to church and just felt "What's wrong with today ?? " met with church related people....

Moo Moo convenience box..

2005-11-23T00:45:00.000+08:00

A cute and unexpected surprise gift from Mabel. I couldn't believe the box could have contains so many candy and chocolates. Look closely and found out that the cute moo moo convenience box is from a.e.i.o.u studio, which i have the gift wrapper (many many houseflies) as my room's wall decorative purpose. Their designs are funny and creative, guess what ? It's a local company. They have a theme for their studio which stated on the gift wrapper "art expression is our ultimate" and for the website is "art expression is our utopia"

My Favourite 'Dead Like Me' TV Show

2005-11-23T00:35:00.000+08:00

Introduced by Nikko about this remarkably great tv shows 'dead like me' , its about a teenage girl named, George. She dropout college, start to work as a filling clerk and one her first day at work, during lunch, she was killed by toilet seat from soviet space station and soon after that, she is an undead person, which makes her a modern grim reaper. Gussh, i love this tv show, can stayed home the whole sunday watching most of the episodes. What makes this show unique is on every episodes, George will express (speak as if you are talking to yourself, during the show) her own thoughts and feeling towards a certain incident, which i find it very attractive and furthermore, it creates your creativity on your own expression. Sadly, it stopped at Season 2, google it and found out why they stopped " ...the producers and the studio didn't get along and it was easier to let this well-written interesting show go. :( "
More details After discovered that a lot of viewers was unsatisfied with Showtime cutting off Dead like me, they came out a petition and i've signed it. View Dead Like Me Petition

Harry Potty - Goblet of potty

2005-11-22T23:50:00.000+08:00

Got lucky to have watched 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire' a day after the movie was released, all made possible by dearest Mabel who was queeing at noon hour for the tickets. Thanks very much.. ;) Totally enjoy this magical movie, although it was a bit 'pain on the ass' to just sit there for 2 Hours and 37 Minutes ;)
Will you pay RM9 to just sleep for 2 hours plus in cinema !?!? Well, i personally witnessed an overweight malay guy, sat right beside me, slept from 15 minutes the movie starts till the end. The "pityful" part was that the overweight malay guy, snore so loud that people around him could simply heard him and was giggling about it.

MSN Messenger 7.5 can't sign in

2005-10-19T19:19:00.000+08:00

During morning, had this irritating problem in office, my MSN Messenger (Build 7.5 0299) just can't able to sign in, not matter how i tried. At first i thought it was my Panda Platinum 2006 Internet Security Antivirus firewall which has blocked it or MSN Messenger service is down. After did some troubleshooting myself, discoverd that my other colleagues has no problem signing in! How strange! Found out that those using MSN Messenger 7.0 are able to sign in with no problem. Read up some thread on forum and realised that MSN Messenger 7.5 has 'bug' , anyhow forced to install 7.0 to kill the problem.
Update info: MSN messenger has came out newer version " MSN messenger 7.5 (Build 7.5 0311), hopefully it fixed the bug.

What is propolis ?

2005-10-18T22:59:00.000+08:00

After work, stopped by a pharmacy to look for vitamins or supplement to cure my regulars occuring flu and colds.
The pharmacist was very helpful recommended me this propolis, it is something from nature and pure, it is from bee. Did a reseach into propolis and found out ....

It’s this ability to fight bacteria that makes it an intriguing supplement for humans. The use of propolis as medicine dates back to the time of Aristotle, about 350 b.c.

The Greeks used propolis for abscesses, while the Assyrians used it to heal wounds and tumors, according to Steve Nenninger, N.D., a naturopathic doctor in New York City.

The Egyptians used it for mummification—and so do bees, says Theodore Cherbuliez, M.D., a physician in Scarsdale, New York, and president of the American Apitherapy Society, a nonprofit organization that advances the investigation of the healing use of products from the beehive.

If a mouse crawls into the hive for warmth in the winter, bees will sting it to death. Then, since they can’t physically remove the mouse, they will mummify it with propolis to protect the health of the hive. "Imagine the inside of a beehive, says Dr. Cherbuliez. "It’s hot, humid, and an ideal milieu to grow bacteria on that dead mouse. Propolis prevents this from happening."

Proponents today use propolis to treat a variety of illnesses, including colds, flu, and sore throats; skin problems; wounds and bruises; stomach ulcers; burns; hemorrhoids; gum disease; high blood pressure; bad breath; and tonsillitis.
They also promote it for boosting immunity. But even the strongest supporters rely on stories of healing, rather than on statistical studies, when they claim that it’s a nutritional supplement. No carefully controlled studies exist to back these claims.

Tracking UFO

2005-10-17T23:58:00.000+08:00

If you have watched the all famous Tv series like X-Files and Taken, you will certainly know what is Extra-terrestrial and Unidentified Flying Object (UFO). Discovered a lot of these related articles and websites , one of them are "THE NATIONAL UFO REPORTING CENTER" http://www.nuforc.org/ , i even came across this UFO maps http://www.ufomaps.com/ which pin point where UFO has been seen and has it on Google earth. Ooh, not to forget one of my favourites 'crop circle' is also related to these unexplained phenomena.

China's rocket Shenzhou 6

2005-10-16T21:02:00.000+08:00

With much respect and salutation to China's space development ever since 1960s, once again it marked down on the Asian history that China has sent 2 more humans to space for 5 days.

As how respectful to China space development is " Shenzhou is part of a larger Chinese program to launch an independent space station and to land taikonauts (astronauts) on the Moon. China is not part of the current 16-nation International Space Station consortium led by NASA. "

Furthermore, their future plan are "have a man perform a spacewalk during the future Shenzhou 7 flight, probably in 2007." , "build a space station in orbit starting around 2009" , "land another unmanned probe on the Moon by 2020 to collect soil samples and return them to Earth in preparation for a human moon base.

Spirit of liveliness, George Carlin

2005-10-16T03:37:00.000+08:00

Chinese people always likes to say "i'm getting old already" when they discuss about age and as always i will not encourage them to say as such and that some refrain themself of doing something which is fun. I feel it's very important that you have energetic, positive and keeps on learning attitude that planted in yourself no matter how old you are, as i would put it in "spirit of liveliness". One of my frequent email spammer (my colleague) sent this which is worth reading by George Carlin.
George Carlin's Views on Aging
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're
kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in
fractions.
"How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and a half; You're
four and a half, going on five!
That's the key.
You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or
even a few ahead.
"How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13; but hey, you're gonna be 16! And
then the greatest day of your life . you become 21. Even the words sound like a
ceremony . . . YOU BECOME 21. YESSSS!!!
But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk!: He
TURNED; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're Just a sour-dumpling.
What's wrong? What's changed?
You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're PUSHING 40.
Whoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away. Before you know it, you REACH 50 and
your dreams are gone.
But wait!!! You MAKE IT to 60. You didn't think you would!
So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE IT to 60.
You've built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it's a day-by-day thing; you
HIT Wednesday!
You get into your 80s and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you REACH 4:30;
you MAKE IT to bedtime.
And it doesn't end there. Into the 90s, you start going backwards; "I Was JUST 92!"
Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again.
"I'm 100 and a half!"
May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!

HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1. Throw out nonessential numbers . This includes age, weight and height. Let the
doctors worry about them. That is why you pay " them " .
2. Keep only cheerful friends . The grouches pull you down.
3. Keep learning . Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never
let the brain idle. " An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is
Alzheimer's.
4. Enjoy the simple things .
5. Laugh often, long and loud . Laugh until you gasp for breath.
6. The tears happen . Endure, grieve, and move on . The only person who is with us our
entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
7. Surround yourself with what you love . Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music,
plants, hobbies, whatever; your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health : If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If
it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
9. Don't take guilt trips . Take a trip to the mall, to the next county, even to a
foreign country; but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them -- at every opportunity.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our
breath away.
And if you don't send this to at least 8 people - who cares?
But do share this with someone. We all need to live life to its fullest each day.

Microsoft Vista is a toilet flushing brand.

2005-09-14T09:54:00.000+08:00

So freaking funny that you just can't imagine that you will find Vista on a toilet flushing system. LOL, Bill G what are you thinking, man ?!?!

Transform your existing Windows XP to the upcoming (mid of next year, probably) new operating system by Microsoft, Windows Vista , codename Longhorn. The patch doesn't really change your Windows XP system files, it just changes the icon, themes and add-on 'dock' (similiar to MacOS mouse over icon pop up thingy) on the desktop. The only thing i like about this transform is the "Recycle Bin" and the 'G' icon for Google Search ;-) Link to download and transform. Vista Inspirat BricoPack 1.0

Which free file hosting site to choose ?

2005-09-11T23:59:00.000+08:00

I've been looking for free file hosting site, so that i'm able to send some large files to my friend without the need to send though MSN messenger and can download at his convenience. A comparison between the 2 free file hosting that i've found so far.
megaupload.com
- Maximum file size is 250 MB
- Download-limit: Limited, will get rejected if you download the second time on a same pc
- 45 seconds waiting time to download
- Need to enter email address to send the delete link to you
- Host your file forever for free, until it is unused for 30 days
- Quite confuse for first timer to upload, pop up ads

rapidshare.de
- Upload-limit: Unlimited (Max. 50 MB per file! Split-archives allowed!)
- Claims to have (7100 MBit/s up/down)
- Download-limit: Unlimited!
- 24 seconds waiting time to download
- Provides with a delete-link to delete your uploaded files
- Host your file forever for free, until it is unused for 30 days
- Clean website, easy to use

At last, i use filefront.com which is meant for gamers, it is user friendly, able to view files that have uploaded, create sub account and group and most of all, fast download speed!!

Who's your virtual girlfriend ?

2005-09-08T23:22:00.000+08:00

This is really humorous, spoonfork describe it so well that got me laughing so hard... read on :-D

"I can’t live without her. She’s my LRT ride companion. I do a lot things on her, to her. She doesn’t complain. She doesn’t nag. Well, sometimes she got sick and ill and I have to fix her. She does not demand attention, but she has that kind of allure - she always make me touch her before I go to sleep, even though I am dead tired. I am with her 16 hours a day. Sometimes she acts funny, like the other day, she refused to response to whatever that I typed. I had to call tech support. I had to remove her battery and floppy disk drive. She’s very cool. But heavy on my shoulder sometimes. She’s great. She’s able to handle XP, VMWare, Visio, WinAmp, all at the same time. She never crushed on me or let me down. And she always let me know when she’s overworked. She the darling of my life.
Her name’s Charlene. She’s a DELL, with 1GH Intel Processor, 348 of RAM, and 10GB hard disk space. I dual-booted her between WindowsXP and RedHat 7.2.
Her name’s Charlene. She does not demand much like the other girlfriends that I have had, but she is sure high maintenance. I spent every other week defragging her, cleaning her registry, arrangin files and stuff. In return, she looks sexier, meaner and leaner. Yes, Charlene is sexy.
She’s strong. She’s always updated. And no one is gonna get near my Charlene, cos see, she got all this software patches and upgrades, and I take great lengths to defend her against viruses. She’s great, my Charlene.
I get worried whenever she’s sick, or not feeling well. Yes we all have our ups and down, and I share mine with Charlene, and she shares hers with me. She’s a good listener, the best that I ever had. When she’s perky, she would suggest songs to listen to, or VCDs to watch. And we’ll do it together, Charlene on my lap. When she thinks that I don’t know much, she’d suggest whitepapers to read.
Oh my Charlene. We’ve been together for a year. You’ll always be my baby"

Get mobile phones for a 8 tokens game!

2005-09-04T23:46:00.000+08:00

There was this special event at the main atrium, a break dance performance on the stage, most of them are malays, i find it they are just copying those western style and wannabe cool. After the roadshow, went Carrefour, noticed there was a long queue along the walk way, in front of a row of cashier counter, shoppers were waiting in line to slot in their receipt hoping to win some prize like trip for 2 to Australia, Rice Cooker and some other stuff. The machine stated '1st ever in Malaysia' and how will the machine determine which is the winner or not? I would guess the machine detects the highest amount on a single receipt to determine which is the winner?! Anyhow... walked to this amusement center, there was this little kid playing Time Crisis with the support of a chair, so that he would reached the level of the screen,children these days are so exposed to the electronics games stuff instead of traditional games like tops (gasing), marble (guli). A crowd gathered in front of a game machine, inside it has real mobile phones units.For example, you press a button and spin in a row of numbers +1,+2,+3,-4,-3,-2; if you got +2, the carriage of mobile phone will go up 2 level from where it stops at, you need to perfectly reach the 7th level to drop off the mobile phone, its not cheap to play this game as it requires 8 tokens to play, which means RM4 for 2 spin chances. I saw winner's photo pasted on the screen of the game machine, those who just got lucky. All of the mobile phones are the latest model. Whaat a money making machine to me.

Digi EDGE

2005-09-03T23:57:00.000+08:00

This weekend, i have to help out with office roadshow at Megamall Butterworth a.k.a Pacific.Its totally no way to get connected to internet when i am in the main atrium area, however the Digi sales guy was surfing all the way long, all because he is using Digi EDGE to connect, i tested out the connection speed, it somehow reaches close to 260mbps, as what that sales guy told me, Digi EDGE covers 90% of Malaysia, thats cool! The package is that you pay for RM99 a month for an unlimited connection, have to be a Digi Postpaid user, which means if you particularly use Digi Edge for connection and dont make any call, every month you still have to pay RM20 and on top of that you have to buy the SONY ERICSSON EDGE GPRS PC CARD model GC83 for laptops which cost close to 1000. Found out that if i hang out at Starbucks, i will get strong wireless signal from TIME Zone offered for free but the unfriendly Starbucks waitress force you to buy drinks and there is another good place to surf for free is at IS Cafe.

Creative Zen Micro and Creative Zen

2005-09-03T01:43:00.000+08:00

Here is the snapshot of Creative Zen Micro (5GB) and Creative Zen (20GB). The Zen looks so oversize when comparing to Zen Micro, though Zen has more storage but unremovable battery, however the functionality of both units are the same.

An awsome mydefcon meeting

2005-09-02T23:50:00.000+08:00

As usual, the first Friday of the month is mydefcon meeting. This time around we held the meet at Northam Beach Cafe, 1st floor where they gave us access to a room facilitate with round table, chairs and air-conditioned,all thanks to tsinikal who won the first price of Wireless Surfing Competition organised by Gerakan at the same place. The venue is definately the perfect place for meeting. I felt this is the way mydefcon meeting should be as the past meeting we held, its either the place is noisy or there is no one paying attention about what the presenter would like to share.On that day, 6 of us were there, we get together and truly listen to the presenter on the topic of Securing your information during online especially when you log on to Streamyx Hotspot using SSH Tunnelling method. Personally, i find it very useful, as you might not know who will sniff your email login or online banking information during online. This is what i encounter at home, the Panda Antivirus detected ' Port Scan Attack '

"Merdeka"

2005-08-30T23:58:00.000+08:00

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!

ZU Gurney Plaza

2005-08-29T23:11:00.000+08:00

Not so sun-day on a Sunday

2005-08-28T23:58:00.000+08:00

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.

House of OM, Kaskade tracks stuck in my mind

2005-08-27T20:24:00.000+08:00

There is always some gigs or events happening at UPR (Upper Penang Road) which is located just right in front of my office building, Wisma Boon Siew. 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). Thanks Tim for recommending me this tunes.

The unexpected and surprising call

2005-08-26T23:14:00.000+08:00

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

2005-08-24T21:51:00.000+08:00

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

2005-08-23T23:15:00.000+08:00

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

2005-08-22T22:47:00.000+08:00

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 !!

Inside a DVD player is a DVDrom ?!

2005-08-21T00:37:00.000+08:00

KimGary in Gurney Plaza,Penang!

2005-08-19T23:28:00.000+08:00

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.

Bon Voyage

2005-08-18T07:30:00.000+08:00

...'Cause she'll be leaving on a jet plane,I don't know when she'll be back again..... Sent off Pauline to airport early in the morning at 5.15am, before she left, she said most probably will extend her trip. Well.... hope she will enjoy her trip there at Australia (definately she will, especially the food there...hehe! LOL) and bless her have a safe and best of health backpacking trip there! Bon Voyage!

Nice froggy vase

2005-08-16T22:55:00.000+08:00

2005-08-16T00:41:00.000+08:00

Went MWE building for lunch, noticed this Feng Shui Pagoda tower in front of this Irish pub, Shamrock which attracted my attention very much! Amazingly, an irish pub has this kinda Feng Shui thingy right in front of their shop, the owner must be a chinese then.

Life of Pablo Escobar during teen

2005-08-15T23:52:00.000+08:00

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

2005-08-14T09:22:00.000+08:00

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.. :)

Hanging out Belissa Row bed

2005-08-12T23:53:00.000+08:00

Feeling great today after work ,no work for tomorrow, a replacement for last week pc fair, its was a tired weekend working from 11am-9pm ; so surprised that Wei Ni (my ex girlfriend) sms asked me are we still friend? and asked me out to hang out with her ; went dinner at Thai Station, Prangin Mall, trust me you dont wanna go there for Thai food or TomYam, food there is not so nice and not original ; went Gurney thinking to meet up with Pauline, she and her sisters clan going to redbox, when i called she was still at home ; saw many youngsters and school kids at Gurney Walk park for that Hong Kong male singer, Nicholas Tze , didnt really interest me anyway ; got plan to hang out with my sister and Paul at bed, Belissa Row. Jonathan hang out with us also,it was my first time there and i totally enjoyed the nice and cozy environment there and of course love it so much with the awsome cool of uplifting/bargrooves kinda house music! ; went for supper after that at old green house, sadly the hokkien mee is not that delicious as before ; so glad and happy to meet up with Pauline after that as i fetched her back home .. it was a great night !

My Tribal Leo Tattoo

2005-08-09T22:55:00.000+08:00

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". "

My very special day indeed!

2005-07-29T23:59:00.000+08:00

On half day leave, but left office at nearly 3pm.Appointment with Ono at 2pm but cant make it as colleague asked me to go back office again, at that time i was with the Telekom, Streamyx guy at Boon Siew. Went up office, colleague are so kind, bought me a peppermint cake from the bakery in front of Cititel. After tasted the cake, went straight up to Ono. Chill'in half an hour there, waiting Ono to get his feel of his art, before hitting the design on my left arm.
Of course, there is meaning for my tattoo design and the way it is located on my left arm. Its a tribal Leo sign, which will reminds me as a born of Leo, has to be strong in any situation, be confident; like Lance Armstong wristband motto "Live Strong" and 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.As for my past, i was weak, low self-esteem.
The time was 4pm when Ono started to draw the main outline on my arm, jazz music was played in the background while doing the tattoo, after many correction here and there, finally came out what i wanted! It is a totally awsome fine art work,simply a piece of art! To describe the feeling doing a tattoo, its simply an enjoyable experience and its not painful, just that have to sit still which i nearly fall asleep.Refer to the tattoo process pictures that i captured using my mobilecam.
Everything done at 6.15pm, Pauline and Sue came visit, Sue was tempted to do but couldn't think of any design yet.After that picked up Pauline at her house. Went Eco Cafe, Chulia street (where used to be at Ono place) for dinner, it was really relaxing and nice dinner we had there. Nice pasta and Pizza! Very Surprisingly, she bought me a cheese cake with candles and special request 2 cherries (she said so it wont looks so plain) from the Japanese cheese cake at Gurney Plaza.. No word can express how happy i was at that moment, its been such a long time i didnt have this birthday feeling.Oooh my... X-) In fact, I was the first one who had my birthday there at Eco Cafe! Next, what was even surprising she bought me a gift and birthday card!! Ohh my.. She bought me a ty soft toy, Opie the octopus (totally cute baby octopus with blue little eyes) and a sweet birthday card. I nearly cried.. i was totally thrilled and touched! Couldn't believe i have such a surprise on my bday.Went to meet with her 3rd sister at Secret Recipe which was an unprepared situation ;p Thanks very much.. Pauline! You are so sweet, made what i believe on my 'special day not so special' into an awsome colourful day!

2005-07-28T23:59:00.000+08:00

Well.. nothing much goin on with my so call eve of my b'day.Went Gurney drive to have dinner with Pauline,hang out at her house.Comes to thinking, is it really matter that on this day, you should go out and celebrate !?! Parrrttiieee, get drunk?!? Most people concept on a birthday,it has to be very special and make it 'big',celebrate. .As always being a loner,(not so sad,anyway) it doesnt really matter to me now, just passed it like any other ordinary days.Surprisingly, received that naive crazy girl, Amelia sms greeting and Cherrian. LOL! :-D What tha hec! Anyway, i'm excited getting my first tattoo tomorrow ;)

China horror movie sucks!

2005-07-20T23:58:00.000+08:00

Went for a movie,(movie day at GSC) watched 'The Ghost Inside', thinking it was a good thriller/horror movie from a China director, the movie is in mandarin.. LOL! The movie really sucks! It was so freaking bored and the cost of the movie is damn cheap, it was just a few scene they shot on. At least the 'Bug me not' (Cantonese) by Twins is much better than this crap.

Out of the ordinary

2005-07-20T23:55:00.000+08:00

Went over to my office's customer, Bee Chin Heong at Kimberly Street.They are selling those chinese praying stuff. I was outside taking puff and took these nice pic.. tell me what u guys think..

Matta Fair for backpacker ?

2005-07-15T23:59:00.000+08:00

After work went Matta fair,PISA with Pauline, she wanted to get air ticket to Australia.When we were on our way to PISA, a massively heavy rain.was surprised to met with Paul and Vivian there...Pauline got her trip information, there was not much discount on 1 person air ticket, offer best at least 2 person. In the arena, it was full of people, a nice experience being there, feeling more like an exibition to me, as we have to pay RM5 to get in.A few tour agencies set up big booth with many counter for customer,it was something which you would never see it during pc fair. Thinking how i wish to go backpacking...

Clearer Vision..

2005-07-14T23:58:00.000+08:00

Went to collect my specs with Paul and Vivian :-) Finally, got my vision corrected, my eyesight is not that serious, just Myopia.. Tomorrow is Matta Fair... well, doesn't mean much to me, unless you wanted to get travelling package at a lower price (Pauline waiting for it) ;-)

Custard apple:Annona reticulata

2005-07-13T22:28:00.000+08:00

Found out there is a custard apple's tree in front of Pauline's house...i realise not many people know about this fruit though, i tasted this fruit before in Kedah at one of my uncle's house, thats when i was in primary school. Google it and found some interesting fact about the fruit ......
The Custard-apple (Scientific name: Annona reticulata), also known in English as bullock's heart or bull's heart. It is a small deciduous or semi-evergreen tree reaching 10 m tall. The leaves are alternate, simple, oblong-lanceolate, 10-15 cm long and 5-10 cm broad. The flavor is sweet and pleasant.

Massive monday traffic jam...

2005-07-11T23:56:00.000+08:00

I was stuck in Jelutong highway for nearly about an hour, it was a massive traffic jam! luckily i have magazine in my car, so its better to read some article then wasted time sitting in the car doing nothing at all; every single car was seem to go to the same direction, heading to town; even there were two traffic police there which cant do anything, just remain standing beside the traffic light, i used the other alternative way though (Jln P.ramlee) or else i would be stuck there for even longer time; boss ordered 2 Star Wars lightsaber (Anakin is blue in colour and red for Darth Vader) from Wilfred, arrived today, each costs about rm500+ which at first i was so tempted to ask Wilfred to buy too but at last gave it a details thought, its not worth spending rm500+ for this collectible... No way. Weather was moody in late afternoon, which suites today, monday....

Asher got the hotspot!

2005-07-10T23:52:00.000+08:00

A hotspot surfing competition organised by Gerakan Rakyat was held at Northam beach; Asher and Azhari took part in the competition; Paul and me just sitting beside helping them out a little bit; At last Azhari got the consolation prize and our man.. Asher got the first prize which is 500 cold hard cash + a trophy; we approached the owner of Northam beach, he agreed to allow us to use the place to have mydefcon meeting; went for the Initial-D movie at MegaPavilion, Prangin Mall with Pauline, met her best friend Karen and bf,Daniel; the movie was pretty impressive on its sound and motion effects, i like especially the blow-off valve sound; went to eat 'La Mien' which is the one behind Burmah House, although the noodles and the way they cook was different from last time but its still nice; had an awsome nice sms chat with her at night ;-)

Woohoo! We are sailing..

2005-07-09T23:59:00.000+08:00

Got invited by Paul to go Catamaran at Penang Swimming Club, rushed all the way to Batu Feringghi ,got there at 3:40pm. Overall, it was so exciting and fun to sail a Catamaran, Paul knows so much on these, taught us how to sail , what and when to hold and release, know the wind of direction. Thanks Paul for all the fun! Reach home at 7:30pm. Immediately after that went out again, a wonderful night out with her, had the best Tandoori in town for dinner, went Ono but he was outstation,gonna ask him about my tattoo design , an open/sincere chat on a hill side ,discovered never seen before night view of Tanjung Bungah housing area (Bukit Mutiara).. . .hope the beautiful night would stay longer..

Levi's bro..

2005-07-08T23:57:00.000+08:00

Received a DHL package from Hong Kong, without opening it, i already knew the content, its gotta be Matsunichi mp3 player. Find it funny on how they packed those mp3s by placing them like sardin/sushi in a lunchbox.
After work, had dinner with Paul and sister (Vivian) at WongKok, actually went there for this optical shop V.Care, as i wanted to get suggestion from vivian to make my specs and coincidentally Paul wanted to make a specs too. Been told by Paul and Vivian that those frames in V.Care actually is cheap in cost, maybe ordered from HK, not branded and quality is not worth paying for.So, went Gurney plaza, found out a big teenage crowd mostly naive teenage girls outside gurney plaza park area for the singer/actor Eason Chan. At the main side entrance, V.Care was there with their trendy, frame specs roadshow. My new image designer said (vivian) dark blue colour frame specs suites me better.After trying a few pair of specs at Focus Point, me and Paul end up getting a cool Levi's frame specs which we got a chance to bargain for a better price.My specs frame colour is this and Paul's is tiny dots in black,trasparent frame..Way cool! Have to wait a week to collect..

RHB ATM OS Revealed!

2005-07-06T23:52:00.000+08:00

Went Burmah House RHB ATM for a redrawal,suddenly the ATM machine got rebooted and the BIOS screen appeared, it required to press on "F2" to proceed,Geee.. ;-D i find it funny coz i dont see any F2 key on the keypad,to my guessing the keyboard must be hiding under the big box..while taking the chance of a lifetime,i was lucky enough to quickly took up my mobile phone and captured it. At last,end up didnt redraw any money.(lol) Went around that part of town,because of taking a friend for bank-in which after a dinner followed by an enjoyable chat at a park with swings near the bank.I had a great evening!

Story of Steve Jobs

2005-07-05T23:40:00.000+08:00

Got a mail from my dude, Kris with the title of "3 stories from Steve Jobs - a must read!" Well, usually i dont spend time reading these kinda article, but somehow it is from Kris, then it should be nice/interesting to read on. The article is written by Steve Jobs himself (one of the richest man in the world, CEO of Apple Computer & Pixar Animation Studios) about ups and downs of his life, from his college life until what he is right now, how he managed to get up from failure, disappointment; been around death of an incurable cancer which might caused his life. His article inspired me, a good motivation for those who is currently working.
I especially like these quotes: " Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the Only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle. "

"If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

A greeting from a box.

2005-07-05T22:50:00.000+08:00

Company's customer ordered 2 brand new Toshiba Tecra M3 with the next generation of Centrino platform, by the codename of Sonoma processor, it came along with 1gb of ram, 60gb of storage.. I found it amusing, as you first opened the box, its written : Nice to meet you ! Well..... nice to meet you too... Mr Toshi Tecra M3 san... ;-)
My boss told me he has registered me and my colleague for a Apple Training held in Northam Hotel, on this 12 of July, Tuesday.He didn't mention what training it is about, but somehow require a ibook or Powerbook to attend. Anyhow, later i found out on my email about the training, something like thunderbiawak in Penang !?!? wtf ?!

mydefcon #15, damn that Adware/ConsumerAlertSystem

2005-07-02T03:32:00.000+08:00

As usual, every first friday of the month we will have mydefcon meeting.I went down a bit early, didnt expect Albert a.k.a Maniac called me at around 9 and said he was there at Pondok RT waiting already. Met up with him and the rest of the goons, we were all sitting right outside of the Pondok RT, waiting for more people to turn up..sadly.. but anyway had a nice chat. At around 10:30 Raz and Altaf came, Raz were showing a damn awsome camcorder program, snapshot at http://mydefcon.org/gallery/15 After that, headed for food at mamak opposite of chic! which happened to see not many people around at chic!, probably is friday?? Got the cool LifeLogger stickers from Altaf that the other day Kris missed out. When i reached home, went into internet and blog about this, suddenly my Panda antivirus detected an Adware/ConsumerAlertSystem, the antivirus killed the adware but somehow it corrupted my notepad.exe. I tried to repair and all but can't seem to make it appears. Damn it! Now, i really have to reformat my beloved pc, its so much of a hassle to reformat it. Anyway, i'm tired..

Darth Vader and Burger King, makes a good team!

2005-06-30T01:48:00.000+08:00

Got a friend's email the other day, and went into this sort of like mind-reading questionaire website, http://www.sithsense.com I was surprise that Darth Vader appear on this, i mean very surprise *lol*... I find it funny as well, as i proceed with an answer, Darth Vader will say: "Emm.. i can sense/know what is in your mind!" I sent the link to couple of my friend who were online and they were knocked down after couple of questions and were freaked out! During the quiz, a King came out and gave clues to Mr. Darth Vader. Funny right ?! Anyway, guess what ? I answered every single question until Darth Vader gave up and walked away together with the Star Wars anthem .. I was laughing out loud after that. Enjoy the Print Screen.
