The February Post

Holla! Happy Chinese New Year people!

Went back for Chinese New Year on 16^th Feb, it’s the day before the New Year eve already. 7:40pm flight, but delayed. Reached Kuching nearly 10pm.

Came back Cyber on 25^th Feb. Not longing to come back here, as I felt the things that need to be done are too many that they’re overloading my shoulder.

I just dislike the feelings to settle down mentally and emotionally every time the environments change, rapidly. It’s hard sometimes.

Haven’t met up with my fyp supervisor, yet. Missing in actions, again. Have to do some progress first, else don’t dare to meet him :p

Today’s the last day of Feb 2007 – 28^th. Here I would like to wish three of my friends who are having their birthdays on 29^th Feb (Alister), 1^st March (Francis) and 5^th March (cc) – Happy Birthday to You, You and You!!! May your life be filled with laughter, always! Most importantly, stay young! :>

Say something

Forgot it’s from CSI which season & which episode. Nevermind.

Quote of The Day:

Greg (in front of colleagues): All work no play makes Greg a dull boy.

Grissom (appears from nowhere): All play no work makes Greg an unemployed boy!

Woohoo!! I love it! I love Grissom! And, I love Greg! :))

If one day when you’re out and a stranger tell you something like this: “Your shoes/shirt/whatever are very beautiful.”

*Please just omit that whether it’s a girl-to-girl, girl-to-guy or guy-to-guy situation.*

What will you think? Thinking that that person is crazy? That person is trying to woo you? Or, other thought?

I’m asking this simply because yesterday when I was on an outing, I saw a girl wearing a pair of elegant shoes, and at that moment I’m really struck by an urge to tell her that her shoes look fabulous. But in the end, I didn’t. A bit regretted now.

Is this a Malaysian culture? Shy to praise others, especially strangers. I wonder.

Have a say.

What can I say bout this?

The past whole week I’ve been spending it wisely I can say.

I’ve watched the movie BABEL, starring Brad Pitt & Cate Blanchett.

I’ve sing-K session with yx and ry, after 3 months of sing-K ‘kaki’ shortage.

I’ve ‘cincai’-ly bought my CNY clothes, as in spot it, try it & grab it home :>
Quick & efficient muahahahahha!

I’ve my first time eating at BBQ-Plaza & also steamboat @ Shabu (not really sure bout the name).

I’ve finally went for a lil’ bit of ‘dancing’ session with my gang of friends.

Together with Mingyih, we fabricated 6 PIFAs on the first week of this semester. Feel the pressure? >:)

I’ve went to 1U with my long haven’t seen friends – Raymond, Alister & Carol’s sis, Crystal; regularly meet friends – Sweewon & Carol :))

For those emoticons used, I truly hope that you can imagine my looks in them =))

Happy imagining!

P/s: This is really a hot-chocolate-sizzling day! Forgive me, I’ve had myself possessed with this chocolate-temptation badly lately. Hmmm…yum yum yummy!

Post-ITP Syndrome

I’m starting to miss my working life already. I’m so sad.

Kept thinking, how am I going to cope back to study life?

Still remember when the ITP is starting, I’m worrying bout all the possibilities that might happen. Think too much – my weakness.

But after 12 weeks working there, I can say I’m kinda attached to the company environment and people already – although we didn’t talk that much lah :)) Just being used to them. Usually it’s only me and Sharon talking in the office :”> Others talk for work, we talk for fun! Hahahahhaha, just kidding – of course we did talk for work loh. :p

Oh ya…if you’re wondering who sh is before this *who kept appearing in my itp entry :))*, the equation: sh = Sharon! Sharon, if you read this, don’t think of how to whack me ohhh muahahhaha.

Me and Sharon’s daily MUST DO routine is to drink a cup of coffee every morning and afternoon. That’s our daily dose – missed it and we’ll keep yawning. Eh Sharon, next sem (which starts this coming Mon) we should find some time to have a cup or two of coffee together loh ;) “Nescafe panas, kurang kurang kurang manis…” :)) Shouted by the mamaks when they saw the two of us coming.

Next, I would like to thank our boss, our supervisor and a programmer for helping us out these 3 months. Thanks for hiring us and teaching us all the valuable knowledge! (They may not be viewing this but I just wana say it out.) Once gain, thanks for everything! We actually bought some presents for them, haven’t give to them yet though.

Our boss is a very cool guy, but he can smile and joke too. He has an aura that makes him a born leader (I think lah). We terkejut on the first day when we’re reading newspaper and he walked in :p Meanwhile, our supervisor is a funny playful guy. He likes to tease us. Eg. When handing him our evaluation forms, he said, “Jangan risau, semua fail hehhehehhe…” The programmer, he is younger than us, but he certainly knows a whole lot more than us. He’s the one who teaches and helps us when we’re cracking our heads on the PHP codes.

Last week I’ve been staying at Sharon’s home due to some transport problems to work. Her whole family is really nice – her daddy, her mommy, her sis and her. I’m truly grateful to have met them – lovely and nice people. Sharon, pls don’t say me “yuk ma” ahh *blush*

Haven’t write my ITP report yet, even the cover also yet to be collected from the faculty office :-L

I’ve been writing this entry since a few hours ago, and I was distracted to clear my yahoo mail half-way. Hmm…I should post this up now, before I go to bath.

It's been 2 years..

Today, my blog turns 2-years-old. Happy Birthday my dear blog!

Yesterday, I’m stunned by shocking news received from Sweewon. The moment I saw her email ‘Subject – I have a bad news’, I kept mumble in my heart hoping that nothing really bad happened when opening the email.

But things seem to run opposite of my wish - an ex-secondary classmate of ours had passed away in her campus, struck by lightning when walking in rain carrying an umbrella.

I’m speechless. It’s been 5 or 6 years since we graduated from secondary school and since then I hardly meet all of my ex-classmates; only a few are in contact. I just didn’t expect things would turn out this way. Ugly ain’t it? But still have to accept the fact --- like it or not, it’s a mortal life after all.

On another thing, yesterday we ate pizza in office again :O But this time around it’s Domino’s and not PizzaHut lah :p Phew!

Next week’s the last week of my ITP. Frankly, I kinda reluctant to leave. Being used to the training [initially I wana put working, but come to think of it, am I really working :)) :”> muahahhaha] environment there and not involving fyp or studies some more. 12 weeks really fly very fast, I couldn’t catch it.

I’ll miss it -- definitely.

Interesting rojak!

The story I'm going to tell is somewhat astonishing. Doesn't happen everyday lah k. Ride along...

Yesterday when going back, I saw a man (I assumed it's a he) driving a trailer as if he was driving a motorcycle.

Guess what? The whole trailer is left with its "vertebrate" only, i.e. no cover, no metal -- nothing. Just a wodden chair -- the driver seat. And, the driver was wearing a helmet. Can you imagine it?

The moment I saw it I was shocked, then soon enough tickled! I can't stand but just felt like burst into a mad laugh. But of course I didn't. If I'm alone, I might have done that. Sshhhhhh!:p tt was sitting beside me mah, I don't wana scare her off.

Then this morning, at the road coming out from Cyberjaya heading towards KLIA toll, we saw cows. Yes, and there're 3 big cows -- in the middle of the road (at the road divider there). The first glance, didn't thought of anything related to cows. 2nd glance, oh my god, did I see wrongly? 3 giant cows either stand and/or sit on the road. Once again, can you imagine it?

And, at the same time, there's an accident at the opposite side of the road. From my glance, I think I saw a Gen-2 being in a state of after-burnt effect. And as usual, there're policemen and traffic jam.

Then....off we go to work!

Pizza anyone? ;)

30^th Nov, when one of the staff was resigning, we ate pizza.

Today 29^th Dec, they ordered pizza delivery again and invited us (me & sh) to eat but we rejected politely. We thought they (actually there’re only 2 of them) were purely eating pizza just for the sake of eating it.

But, around 5:21pm, suddenly one of them came over and bade us farewell. We’re shocked, really. It never crossed our mind that this would happen, so fast, again.

Pizza = Bye Bye?! This, certainly, is gonna intimidates me from eating pizza again!

Me & sh went to eat pizza when we get our salary last time. And we actually plan to eat it each time we got paid --- means we’ll be eating it twice more for our 3 months training.

Pizza = Get Salary.

But now …… The definition is blurred. I don’t feel like eating it anymore leh.

Hopefully we won’t be eating any pizza inside the company again. *touch wood*

In a flash of the eyes, it's 26th Dec, again.

Does it ring a bell?

The ever giant waves, Tsunami, attacked humans on this date 2 years back.

My (partial) Christmas & New Year's Wishes

1. To those boat-men that asked money from the flood victims out there, I wish your house(s) get flooded NOW!

2. I wish I won’t hear any moronic words coming out from the mouth of our minister(s), ever, again.

Eg. Recently heard from radio DJ, a deputy minister said that women deserved to be robbed – who asked them to carry branded handbags?! It’s like saying the women are portraying an outlook that says, “What are you waiting for? Come snatch me now, I’m carrying a LV bag leh *wink wink*”.

What about men? I hope the minister won’t come out with something like this sooner or later – don’t wear branded jeans like Levi’s. It’ll be deciphered by the snatch thieves as “Come rob my pants now, it’s Levi’s woh!”

Now how’s that?

3. I wish our Mr. future-astronaut is doing good – contribute to Malaysia’s scientific researches.

Finally, I wish everyone’s healthy and happy, esp my family and friends.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2007!!

*hugss & kissess*

Good brakes

At last...

知错能改，善莫大焉。





P/s: Will change the "han4 yu3 pin4 yin1" to real Mandarin words tonight. Maklumlah, here no Chinese Star or whatsoever programs to insert Mandarin words.


10:18pm update:
Replaced!

Magic Moment

Have you ever encountered this?

Same time;

Same car;

Same people;

Same road;

Same particular spot;

Same radio station;

Different days;

Yet, same song played!

I experienced it this morning and on another morning few weeks back.

The song is 路人 by 江美琪。

It struck me with a sudden amazing thought. The feeling is just awesome.

It's a magical world, ain't it?

sale = sail != sell

Two girls knocked on my door and said they're doing some market survey for Digi. They also mentioned: This is not sale! So I mah chatted with them loh.
Mind you, I was opening my "Home Alone" movie at that time.

They took turn pilipala explained explained and asked for my opinions.

Them:
There're users who complaint that the charges are too expensive, some can even spent up to RM300 or RM500 per month. Do you think it's expensive?

Me:
Wow, it's expensive! But this is non of my business lah, I didn't boil my handphone also.

Them:
Can you tell how much you have to pay when you're talking for 6seconds, 10 seconds or 30seconds?

Me:
Errr....I tak tau lah. 60 cents per minute I know lah.

Then I kepoh-kepoh go told them -- but usually I'm using Friends&Family to call only, so still affordable.

They quickly tembak me -- but F&F is for calling 6 people only; if you use this package, it's very cheap for calling everyone. FOR EVERYONE OHH!!!! :>

Ohhh...ok.

Them:
Now we're doing the promotion. *show me the information charts* If you buy it at Digi Center, it'll cost you RM100. But if you buy it now, it's only RM30. You can choose your own number, means you can decide the 4-digits behind 016-897XXXX.
*the fox tails finally emerged..woo woo wolf*

Me:
Errr...but I wana use back my current number woh. I don't feel like changing.

Them:
Is your number the issue here? *I kinda ignore this coz I have no intention to spend any of my money since the beginning.*

Me:
I think I still don't need this package first lah. I'll purchase it next time when I need it.

Them:
But this promotion is only until end of this month ohh. RM30 is really worth it.

Me:
Ohh...but I still don't need it yet. Thanks ahhh.



Now, can anybody please kindly tell me the difference between sale and not sale?


Can you catch the ball I'm throwing?

I love these Mondays!

Consider this a continuum from ray & sweewon’s posts…

Ok, back to our Mondays’ business -- wana know why I love’em?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEE WON!!

This shall bored you

1 month and 3 days ago, I pierced my ears. And, I actually bought a pair of plastic replacement earrings, but I forgot to take them after I paid. Ageing.

Just 3/4 recovered from flu. Got it most probably due to dehydration in air-con room.

Mum: You got drink water or not?
Me: Well, when I'm sick, I drink like mad; but when I'm not sick, I didn't. *hahaha*
Mum: You still dare to say it huh.

:p

I bring approximately 2 litres water to work when I'm having flu; other times, I bring about 500ml :))

When picking up the phone, my bad sister said:"Ma, sick people calling you...".

These few days sh and I have been working on the WML code. It's used for the WAP (access internet through handphones, PDAs etc.) pages. Quite hard. But today finally have some encouraging outcomes.

I actually have a short moment of wrong thought that today is Wednesday when I was waiting at office's downstairs together with sh. I don't know what my mind was thinking. Wander.

A little note: Email is really a nice chatting medium >:) esp during works ;))

It's a bird, It's a plane, It's $$!!!

Today, I got heat up in my head when I saw this news.

蛀米虫 and jiak liao bi really pissed me off.

I say, we sumbat all these people into h*ll! Pardon me, my mistake. It should be lubang jamban. But, will the shits welcome them? I bet it’s a NO NO.

I guess, just throw them out to the space to play batu seremban – that should’ve help. Help us, not help them; in case you’re wondering.

Everyday saw news reporting money flying here and there in the Malaysia's skies, but the money never flew into the citizens' pocket. Worse, it always fly out from the pocket. How sad.

Thanks to who? The undergarment.

KFC + McD Combo

You saw the title.

Ada apa dengan angkasa lepas

Updates: Our Mr. future-astronaut will also spin traditional Malay tops or known as 'Gasing' if you might wana know, and do batik painting in the space.

Really, what's all this for???!!!

Quoted from TheStar:
“Schoolchildren will be further motivated to increase their interests in science and technology when our astronaut holds a live teleconference with students from several selected schools,” she said, adding that the astronaut would also conduct several experience on micro-gravity in front of the television camera.” ‘She’ --- is refering to Agriculture Ministry parliamentary secretary Rohani Abdul Karim, who was replying on behalf of the Science, Technology and Innovations Ministry.

I have doubts whether the schoolchildren will be truly inspired. Don’t ask me why. Go ask the children.

Our Mr. astronaut-wannabe will board a Russian rocket for eight days of space travel on Sept 2 next year (2007). Millions of RM for 8 days in space -- a place without oxygen, gravity, food, water etc., where we human cannot live in. You do the calculation, and tell me does it worth.

Of course you can say that it’s worth for satellite communication, RF transmission and reception bla bla bla…but I still maintain my stance.

My suggestion would be: take the money to reduce pollutions on Earth so that we’ll have a better place to live, for a longer time. Love our mother nature more lah, duhh.

Assalamualaikum,
Jangan tak pasal-pasal nak pergi angkasa lepas je, tapi takda kapal angkasa sendiri. Nak main batu, gasing, buat teh tarik dan batik kat sana pula tu. Adakah patut? Entah-entah ada buat eksperimen yang betul-betul berfaedah untuk negara, kan? Alahai, apa dah jadi? Sesiapa yang bijaksana tolong bagi tau aku ya. Sekian, terima kasih.
Wassalam.

Just testing my long-never-use BM skill :))

Too over liao lah

5:39pm, tt missed call me, signifying that she’s departing from her company. I went down around 6pm. I wait and wait and wait wait wait……

Cut the story short. In the end, I reached Cyberjaya around 8:30pm. Usually around 6:45pm I’ll be reaching my room. But today just….traffic jams extraordinarily. The most probably reason is that the Batu Tiga toll near our company was FLOODED!

On the other note, I bet most people already noticed the country’s big plan to send an astronaut into the space by tumpang-ing Russia spacecraft. This project is spending millions of RM --- contribution from rakyat.

Now, what’s the astronaut gonna do in the space? Read carefully loh…he’s going to play batu seremban, makes teh tarik and God knows what-boh-liao-things. I’m wondering, can’t he just be doing some more meaningful/worthy/valued things for Malaysia? I crack my head hard and I still see no point in all these. Hmm…Am I stupid?

Oh ya, before the program to choose the so-called Malaysia 1st astronaut was launched, how come I never saw/heard any act of government asking us – the rakyat – whether we agree with this larger-than-ever-money-wasting project? There was no poll, no voting or whatsoever. Or did I miss it?

Do we, the rakyat, only have the right to vote during election? Other time we have to remain silent, or are we actually appear invisible to the government? I’m curious.

Some articles to kill time:
True?
