As of today, i have already resigned of my post in my current company and am just continuing work to serve my bond there...2 months... Frigging long and yea.. having resigned...i am currently looking for a new job...haha
Any recommendations or anyone wanna hire me?..haha... now thats getting desperate.. i'm not at the desperate level just yet, but i am now looking for another job hopefully being able to start in March next year...after CNY that is. However wont be really celebrating CNY due to the unfortunate event that happened last year...sigh. :(
Now thats aside, having making a slight income lately, i've been looking to ' revive' my aquarium and attempt to start over, petting ornamental fish, creating a landscape to 'house' them. Its been about a month and i would say, so far so good.. here are some images of it.. Rummy nose tetra and glowlight tetra school one of my angelfish.... The two Discus that i got about 2 weeks go... and a close up to one of them...
When the discus first arrive, they kept hiding and will not eat, which is worrying. Now they would even nibble the food of my hand as i feed them. :)
On another note....my mug don't those 2 words just describes 'life'?
At loooonnng last, after the promised 3 weeks; its been 3 months and i got my Tiger FC goodie bag. Its nothing much really, only have several pamplets, a membership card a poster and come other stuff that come with it.
Its nothing much really, its just with the season pass ( membership card), i get some invites or privileges when it comes to football viewing parties.
There are some of the stuff that comes with it The red card says.... , the yellow says... and finally the blue one says.... y is there even a blue card? lol
TigerFC rules.... 1. Football is never just a game. Thirst for winning means 1st is 1st and 2nd is nothing. Winning is everything and that's it. 2. If you're not sure, think it over with another Tiger Beer 3. Always celebrate the win with your fellow TigerFC teammates by buying them a jug of Tiger Beer 4. Any NON-FOOTBALL related conversation will lead to a free kick in the pants. 5. Drinking foreign substances such as wine, spirits and cocktail is a RED card offense. 6. Refs know the rules but not the game. Use your cards to show them how its done. 7. Always call for a substitute Tiger Beer as soon as yours reaches the halfway mark. Use the BLUE card included 8. Hard luck excuses is a YELLOW card offense. This attitude is FORBIDDEN 9. Any disputes are settled by the final score. The lose pays respect to the winner with a jug of Tiger Beer 10. Be sure to know your fixture list and attend practices regularly. Team commitment and passion build champions.
The biggest and perhaps the most watched football league in the world will have its first tonight. This is non other than the Barclays Premier League ( formerly known as the English Premier League)
this weekend round of matches pit the ' Big Four " against each other in the same weekend for the first time. After the round of appetizers over Saturday involving the other 16 teams, the main course of this weekend has just passed
First we have the match between Liverpool FC and Manchester United Live from Anfield. it finish 0-1. Carlos Tevez scoring.
and followed by the match between Arsenal and Chelsea Live from The Emirates. It finished 1-o with the goal coming from William Gallas.
Well, its been awhile since it was announced and all, but i just happen to came across this recently. So basically what it will mean is.. picture from lowyat.net
Apparently the Trade and Consumer's Affair Ministry are looking to impose a limit or maybe none what so ever to any Malaysians who download 'stuff' of the internet. A whopping fine of RM250k to RM 500k will be imposed to whoever who are caught doing so.
One may ask, do we even get fined if we download open source applications ( free stuff) off download applications such as bit torrents. Its absolutely absurd to literally track down every single downloader in the counrty.
Heck, as we all may know, softwares are not cheap to come by, costing at least RM100 for each application. Lets say a student needing several software to complete a certain assignment or pursue their studies, what option do they have but to get the software off downloads or even from a pirate source. Its not that their university or college will willingly supply all their students with the required software. Use the campus computer labs u say? Each campus may have, let say 200 computers at their labs, are they looking to cater over 500 students with the mere 200 computers. And , as a student myself previously, who starts works until about 10pm at night... will the computer labs still be opened? Cyber cafe's? will the computer's there have the software we require for our work? 99.9% does not even have MS Word.
An average Malaysian earns about rm30k p.a., how does the government expect them to pay the enormous fine this is imposing. Downloaders are more for private use and all; the government should actually looking in impose heftier fines to offenders such as rapist or robbers, even some public service personnel who are taking bribes; protecting the safety of the public. Downloaders will not go , " Damn i cant download this, i must kill someone". :)
As most downloaders may realize, the stuff that you download are actually shared from another source in the world. So by banning download, they are also in way banning sharing. Agree? They bought the stuff, they find it nice and look to share something good to everyone else around the world, we happen to came across it, curious and since they are sharing it, why not?
What they should be looking to do is actually crack down pirate VCD and DVD peddlers and as we can see its not really successful over the years. Trying to ban downloads? Its more like a dream. What if we actually payed for the software and download them, will we still get fined? lol
p/s will we still get fined if we download trial programs, which are meant to be free?
The group stages are done and we now have 16 teams left in contention for the biggest prize in club football in Europe, if not the world; given its prestige. Lots of unexpected stuff happened and as most will expect; the favorites made it through with much trouble.
So here are the group winners; arranged from group A -H. We have in order we have FC Porto (Portugal), Chelsea Fc ( England), Real Madrid ( Spain), AC Milan ( Italy), FC Barcelona (Spain), Manchester United ( England), Internazionale (Italy), Fc Sevilla (Spain)
and the group runner ups, we have in order we have Liverpool FC ( England), Schalke04 ( Germany), Olympiakos ( Greece), Celtic FC ( Scotland), Lyon ( France), AS Roma ( Italy), Fenerbahce (Turkey), Arsenal FC ( England)
draws for the last 16 will pit group winners against group runner ups. however teams from the same countries will not meet in this stage of the tournament; as well as groups that advance from the same group. So the possibility of a Thierry Henry return to the Emirates is high, even a rematch of the previous final between Milan and Liverpool. Those are some possibilities of the big matches we can expect from the UCL unless the draw suggest otherwise. All we need to do is wait for the draw which i think will be tomorrow.
And these are some of the teams that eveyone would expect to go through but disappoints. Valencia (Spain), SS Lazio ( Italy) and VFB Stuttgart ( Germany)
thou, its a shame that the likes of Juventus and Bayern Munich are not participating in the competition this year..
I've been looking for some good anime to watch lately...and happen to stumble upon this as i was at some anime blog.
Previously i was looking to watch
Eyeshield 21. Its some animation about american football. Quite interesting actually. But i read the mangas and the anime is lagging by quite a lot. i slowly find it kinda boring, the anime not the manga. So i kinda stopped watching this and just continue reading the comics..
Then came along Mobile suit Gundam 00
The plot from wikipedia.org :
"The series is set in the year 2307AD of the Gregorian calendar. During this time, fossil fuels became exhausted and the distribution of fuels became imbalanced. Humanity must rely on an array of solar power generation systems orbiting the Earth, and supported by three orbital elevators, each one pertaining to one of the three "major powers" on the planet.
With this infinite source of energy benefiting only the major powers and their allies, constant warfare around the globe for fuels and energy lead to the formation of a private military organization, called Celestial Being (ソレスタルビーイング,Soresutaru Biiingu?), dedicated to eradicating war with the use of four humanoid machines called Gundams.[1][3]
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 follows four mobile suit pilots termed Gundam Meisters ( ガンダムマイスター,Gandamu Maisutā?), sided with Celestial Being. The protagonist is 16-year old Setsuna F. Seiei (刹那・F・セイエイ,Setsuna F. Seiei?), a quiet, taciturn young man who grew up in the Kurdish Republic, and a Gundam Meister for two years. He pilots the GN-001 Gundam Exia, a high mobility mobile suit effective in melee combat.[6][7] "
One of the many gundam series and it lives up to it..so far....heck theres only 10 episodes so far. My personal opinion is that this series has quite an interesting storyline, so far at least. Really, if you are into anime and stuff, i would say this can be included in your collection for viewing and you will not be disappointed ( personal opinion)
this ithe the opening of the anime Daybreak Bell by L'Arc~En~Ceil
as you can see off the title...well, um basically i have nothing to blog about.
For the last few days or WEEKS for that matter, i have been thinking...thinking if should continue in my role in my current job. Ya, basically i was thinking about resignation.
I have lost the motivation to continue pursuing my career in the type of job field that I am currently in. Perhaps its due to the nature of job, which i don't think i will benefit experience wise unless it is counted as general working experience or if i choose to venture more into the same field, sure the experience of dealing with technical problems helps but i felt i've reached the 'ceiling' of that i can attain from here, technically; or maybe perhaps due to the weird working hours and time this job demand, weird hours = less sleep + (-night life) + less jams which may in one way or another affect my health ( due to lack of sleep) and having to work on public holidays (?) sure the extra leaves are good but whats so nice of more leaves where you are the only one not working while your friends are slaving away at their respective companies; but it is definitely due to the customers i have to face everyday. They gave me the extra stress that i can definitely do without. Sure some of them actually thanked you and showed their appreciation for a job well done, but most of them literally gets into your nerve. Yes sure most of them are computer illiterate, but at the same time, they must act all snobbish and will not listen to simple instructions. Even by explaining with the simplest of terms, they find it hard to understand. What i really hate was those who said we have a certain accent and have to act all racist and stuff. Likewise i dont really like those who have a strong mainland China chinese accent and middle eastern customers..if you ever have heard one, over the phone, 90% of the time your would wish someone could shoot you. Basically there are some, whom, given the chance, you can see them face to face, you told like to give them a real tightSLAP left, right and center.
I guess thats about it, i think i have though about this long enough and i have already come to my decision which is just about 80% underway. Sure the working environment is good and all but i don't feel that i can do much with this nature of job. I got opinions and all from friends and most of them gave their opinions which just about made my mind up about this decision. Not that i was influenced, but i was thinking about itlong and hard too. I never expected to stay in this job for long in the first place. I guess it too much of arushaccepting this job in the first place after all. Most calls for interviews came in when i as already in training for this job, kinda wasted the other opportunities.....sigh
If i were to job hop now, i can definitely forget about the Redang trip we were planning in March, unless my 'new employers' are generous, but not that i mind really. If this job change helps me decide my career path, then it is all worth it. Honestly speaking, i am still not very sure of what i really want yet, but it will definitely NOT as a programmer or a customer support personnel
thats all i guess
p/s: i may be open for some flak after this post...so whatever...
one of the stuff that happened between then and now as the visit to a little place right behind a place we fondly know as Jalan Alor...in case to those who don't even know Jalan Alor, its ummmm opposite Sg. Wang or Bukit Bintang....
if you still have any doubts, i suggest you get yourself a map of KL from your newspaper stall....
ok having that aside....this is the place.
located at Tengkat Tong Shin, which is behind Jalan Alor this place serves some what decent food if fine dining is your cup of tea....pretty affordable too..
a wide range of dishes from which you can select from, mostly grazed and cooked with a dash of alcohol, it really justifies the price you pay for the dishes. long story short la...its good....a bit costly but worth it.
went there with some of my colleagues for some department makan makan thing ler..
i dont exactly remember the name of the dishes but this are some of what we had that night lar..
Appertizers... Sliced duck breast salad with mozzarella cheese
Grilled Scallop Salad
Main Course Some seafood platter ( Norwegian salmon, some calamari, clams and prawns)
and theres to the steak but no pictures as the one who ate it was really hungry..lol
and the dessert: erm...Peach ice cream, some cake with fruit slices and warm chocolate souffle; which by the way tasted sinfully delicious when eaten with the ice cream.
To add to that a wide range of good wine which you can enjoy with enjoying the food.
Price wise Im not pretty sure as it was paid for, but the cost for 1 person reaches to about rm60+ ( appetizers main and desserts) Plus Max ( the owner) i suppose is a pretty friendly fellow. You can't miss him he is the bald fellow who will be preparing your food on the grill behind the bar..Yup you can see him and he cooks behind the bar, NOT in the kitchen.
IF you have the chance, and looking to whet your appetite with good fine dining at affordable price, look no more...
they are here Max Kitchen & Wines 27 Tengkat Tong Shin 50200 Kuala Lumpur 03-2141 8115
just a start to bring this back to life.... update; life sucks abit since the last post....stuff happens and am feeling kinda shitty now.
i am looking for stuff to blog lar....nothing interesting to blog about...
just a short update of what happened between, erm...ar...
its work work every day.. comtemplating for a job change
and went for the MCR concert last sunday....it was the bomb... din really took much pictures but will update when i got it...
on the lighter note.... jsut for laughs

time to revive my blog...its been a week since i logged on..lol
well, last week went from lousy and crappy to 'ok'. well um, as mentioned, i screwed an interview on monday, went to fill up something on tuesday and collected my 'Minutes to Midnight' CD and was called up for an interview by E2 Power, some subsidiary of OCBC bank. at first, i am really having second thoughts about the position there but what the heck, i went and gave it a shot. that fella asked me to be there at abt 1030 as my interview session was at 11. i reached at 10 and waited will 1145 then only i am asked into the interview room. not that there was a person before me so i was like " what the hell?" plus the people there wasnt that friendly at all. sure the place is nice, but as you exit the lift and head towards the glass door, people on the other side of the wall walk pass you as thou you were some animal in the zoo. can't they even bother to open the door and ask? customer service konon. luckily i wasnt the person who was the 'display' as i invited myself in with some postman who were delivering stuff there. just told that staff who opened the door that i was here for the interview.
the interview went ok i guess but i doubt i'll get the job the moment i left my seat. the interviewer said, and i qoute " banking is not your field and your field is more on IT". so i was, well ok. don't care. just hope la at that moment, plus other reasons i might not like the job is 1)cyberjaya is waaaayy to far 2) i dont want to work when everybody is sleeping 3) "Banking is not your field" ...lol
so went home and got a call from Datacom, the company that which interview i screwed up on monday. the manager of the department i was applying for gave me a second chance. i was like oOoOKay....so i asked why. apparently, i screwed the interview but my assessment was good, so i kinda got the position la. asked for time to think over and gave him the answer the following day. so yea..i am employed starting at 1st June as a technical support and earning a cool RM@%^& per month. im undergoin training at the moment...so yea..busy busy.
several stuff crossed my mind as i think, pros 1) secure a job early, eases my stress as i am stressed before i got the call 2) quite a good pay, so yea 3) is the kind of job field i wanted cons 1) i have to start work early, no more rest 2) start work, less time to go holiday ( signing away my freedom, lol) 3) that area is freakin jam in the morning and the evening. well, at the plus side of the job, dresscode is CASUAL. meaning jeans and t-shirt to work...lol my colleagues are friendly and my boss seem to be a fun person to lepak with...so far so good la..but apparently the job is quite stressful, imagine handling customers who don't really understand what you are trying to do even thou its explained in layman's terms? ah. well.. plus a possible pay rise after my probation...lol..provided i perform la...haha
well thats it for now.
ciao

hi...its already been a week since the last post.. a little update on what happened last week. well i went for this MCTS (Microsoft Certified Technical Specialist) course. well, this course concentrates a lot in using programming language to develop a website and of course the chance of a job opportunity with some Microsoft partners. i feel as thou i have wasted a week of my life cuz 1) i suck at programming and learning it more did not make much better 2) i did not go for the interview scheduled for us because i had another appointment on the same day and, 3) i will not opt for a programming job. anyhow, its good experience learning some new stuff plus, its free. during that week, went twice for steamboat, one in cheras the other in sunway. good times with friends and got really stuffed in those two occasions. football with some friends in the weekend and man do i really need to exercise, no longer used to football after almost 3 years of futsal only..haha oyea...went for the nokia n95 wireless adventure auditions on saturday. what is it? well, if chosen, i will get a n95 for free...doubt i will get it thou...felt as thou we screw the auditions up..with the new toy, we will enter a competition that is like a rip-off from the amazing race, winners gets a trip to rome or prague.
well, am feeling damn lousy today, hadn't has the best of starts today. i went for some interview, jammed almost have way there, parking was freaking expensive and i totally screwed the interview up. well in short, its like the interviewer asked questions that i cannot answer; technical stuff...well have to move on and take this as an experience..seriously i really felt really down feeling as thou to give up...but gotta move on.
and, about the 'girl', erm..i kinda decide to forget about it for now. lets just say i dont really have the confidence to tell her and be a better person...so now im jobless and girl-less. i feel as thou i have wasted my campus life by not getting someone..well its the past and i gotta move on..hopefully i will find another suitable one or build the confidence to tell her how i feel ( need the moment and setting mer..so will work on it and bide my time; which i hope i still have). personally i prefer the latter. haha again, advices are welcomed...lol
thats all for now,
adios

erm...lets see how i start this off... studyin is over for now, my working life will start very soon. what happens in between? well, thanks to eunice & co. , they organized this great party last thursday at the orange. free flow of beer and lotsa fun..was able to meet and catch up with some old friends. among them was one who spend a good time of that night, laughing; and i mean a good amount of time of that night. so far to the extend where the bartender came and joked with her asking " u still laughin?" lol...
in the previous post i qoute "doubt i'll drink alot thou" ( or something like dat) erm..i did not drink alot wert...haha. well, was playing some sort of game with some friends, losers gotta drink..and so the story goes...after that session, i was literally wasted and drunk...but still sane...haha.. there was a guy who told me during the beginning of the party, that "if im not drunk yet, i cant go home"..i was like "..." ok...i think he was the guy who got wasted the fasted, so i heard... met a few new friends, and one of them said and i qoute, " when u meet a new friend, u must drink" ( or somethings like dat) and so goes down a few more..
drinkin was done there and then i was literally wasted, blur but still sane. slowed down since then, just taking a few more sips here and there...since mabuk ady, juz taruh la (but i can still walk in a straight line).. for the whole night, i was hoping that i wont throw up. near the end of the party, some things happened that is best left in the memory of the people who was there. done and left within the four walls, a ceiling and the floor ( a box ler). after the party went for some hot tea and a mamak nearby. biting a piece a lemon trying to kill of some of the smell and hopefully regain some consciousness. my head was feeling woozy. some hot tea just make it feel better. fortunately, i fetched someone over to the party and he could drive me back ( or almost to my place)...else i dont know what will happen. ..reaced home at 3am and i got a SAP class at 9am later that day...needless to say, i was like a zombie at that class.
1 thing i noticed during that class was, the time was passing really, really slow. sap's over, pop over for pizza and eventually ending up at chili's at 1U to meet some friends. 2 rounds? hhaha...chili's was for the drinks and to meet the laughing machine ( to see if she's still laughing). drank, chat and chat for almost 2-3hours? haha...had dinner and watched spiderman3 later that night..well, the show as ok ler...slightly below my expectations...but ok..give it a (7.5/10)..i still think that venom died a bit too easily, given that he is spiderman's arch enemy...may be there will be spiderman 4...lol after movie, go mamak, drank some more and chat some more.... well, every things will have to come to an end, its like a blink of an eye, 4 years had just gone past. still vaguely remembering the day when i met u guys. thanks. thanks for the memories. there haven't been any greater buddies...gonna miss u guys... maybe next time, when u get ur pay, give me a call and belanja makan la...haha.don't worry, when i get mine, i wont forget u guys....
thats all for now...hopefully i can get some pictures from the party as soon as possible...
adios...

Saturday, April 28, 2007
ok.its been awhile...actually about four to five days since i blogged. was busy with exams and stuff. seriously, i have nothing interesting to blog about...boring life...hmm.. lets see, between those intervals, i sat for 2 papers, one of them was today....ok lets see.... the datawarehouse paper wasn't that bad. i kinda know what i am doing but i am not sure if i had done it the right way...haha. it was ok, most of the stuff i read came out and the doubt that i have towards the paper was the diagram...hopefully it was correct and even if its not, i hope for some markah kesian...lol.. have anyone ever tasted teh with gula melaka...found in a coffeshop at PJ. well, they had it on posters in that shop, trying to promote it. i have no idea on what to drink so i decided to give it a try. result was..WOW!!! it really taste good. in fact the food they have there wasn't half bad, plenty of choice, and cheap...considering the prices u get in PJ for those kind of food..satisfied...
other highlights on the past week was study, study, wasting time, study and study...damn... didn't really studied well for the saturday paper thou....my brain is simply resisting the information that i am trying to pound into it...so, long story short, nothing much really went in..time to delete some stuff from it...spent almost the whole day reading but nothing went it..total waste of time? lol
ok, saturday's paper....business intelligent system...at the rate im going, trying and failing to pound the information regarding the subject into my head, im really turning in to a Big Idiotic Subject. haha...anyway the paper that came out wasnt as expected. the stuff i head and concentrate on, well, only about 30% of it came out? ( and that was giving it credit). to add insult to injury, i wasn't feeling that well today too. i woke up with a cold, sniffing away, trying to hold on to my nose, preventing it from running away and been sneezing like crazy. i practically sneezed about 9 times in a row..wow..sneezing came since friday, after dinner. fortunately i wasnt sneezing away during the paper, probably i can see pens and chairs being flung towards me...having a running nose wasn't bad enough, my head aches like crazy this morning while doing my last minute studying, nothing is going in...kinda the same feeling when i took my e-commerce paper the previous semester..Exam Avoidance Sickness Excuse Syndrome (EASES)? it kinda 'eases' my nerves a bit huh, having an excuse to give if i didn't do too well for that paper. haha damn..fortunately most of the question requires us to kinda give our own opinion and justifying it...i hope...lol..most of them aren't in the notes...so..tembak la..its over..done. hopefully i don't flung this paper..man i have high hopes for this paper and now all im hoping for is that i don't do too badly for this paper. all in all, the time spend studied was kinda worth it. the rest of the day was considered as a break, which i think is to most of my friends too...haha. tomorrow is included in the break? maybe...thats the reason why we can't have too long a gap between papers. a break's good, but too long a gap will make us, well maybe only me, feel lazy. gotta, hopefully start tomorrow.
btw just finished watching EPL awhile ago, conclusion MU is gonna take the title as it stands. they have to champion's form and luck...im kinda backing them to win it because i and i think many other people, do not wnat chelsea to win their third title in the row...haha hopefully they take the FA cup too. Champ's league? sorry la..its Milan's..they are gonna kick MU's sorry butt for conceding two away goals at Old Trafford when they meet at San Siro..haha. KAKA!!!!sorry la..not MU fan...hopefully i dont get smacked..plus im not quite a fan of english teams apart from arsenal in the champ's league. arsenal beating chelsea next week will practically seal the title for MU. Arsenal fan wert, dissappointed they didn't do quite well this season, injury plagued. aih..hopefully they come out strong next season..
thats all for now, been sniffing all the while im typing this..anyone knows a remedy on how to cure the EASES sickness or maybe just to cure my endless sniffing and sneezing...thx
adios

ok...did not post yesterday..was busy preparing for the paper today...which...erm...whats the word?..sucked?..nah. actually it wasnt that bad la..its just worst!!! !@$!@$...haha i mean the tips i acquired, the source said " come out until wont come out ( translate into cantonese)". well, ok la...was a bit of a last resort la because there was a lot and i mean A LOT to read and me wasting time on saturday hasn't helped one bit. it was all about good charlotte last saturday.
saturday...what i did.....spend some time getting to 5 porter forces for the exam case, which DID NOT come out and the recommendations for the case...luckily that came out...then it was off to subang parade where good charlotte had a autograph session. the line was crazy..it was damn @#!$!%$ long. i brought my chronicles of life and death album to get it signed.. but they only allow good morning revival..so since im there and its raining like mad outside...stayed and watched a bit la. a gal was damn lucky that day, she was carrying her guitar while getting here cd signed, benji madden asked her for her guitar, she passed it over and it was signed by all the members of good charlotte...lucky gal...so envy...the things is..people had been queuing up since 9am in the morning and i arrive there at 3pm..so , where can fight..
the night at d concert was the bomb!! had a really great time there...apart from one of my friend getting a vvip backstage pass and being abandoned by some friends who entered the vip area. one buck short performed and i personally think they did a much better job at the hitz.fm birthday bash, but it was ok lar..enstranged and j.lo came after. didn't know the songs by estranged are rather good...especially the one titled 'itu kamu'. and of course j.lo did not disappoint with his 'old newspaper' song. haha.
after that, i almost lost my voice, kenot reach high pitch, so left d crowd ( i was in the middle) to get some relieve of the cigarette and sweat smell and to get some cool drinks to quench my thirst. but it was a good decision..it was so much cooler behind, away from the crowd ( apa mau buat, i takde vip and kena abandon, haha). from back there i got d full view of the stage instead of the view of people's head in the crowd, and saved my legs from being stomped. some gal who was in front of me stepped on my leg ( i wasnt wearing shoes) countless times when she jumped while j.lo was performing.
good charlotte came after, and i was...WOW!!! the performance was great. besides singing songs from the good morning revival album, older good charlotte classics such as 'girls and boys' , 'i just wanna live', 'the anthem' and 'hold on'. i mean there performance did not dissappoint. i really hoped that they will come back to kl to have another concert..
oh yea..mtv vjs, utt, colby , denise and another gal vj was there too. denise is hot, not that i dont know that...haha. sure wished they could throw the freebies a bit further thou...or maybe use an air gun.
thats all for now...pictures are being processed now...haha
adios

what a day its been, woke up feeling really down the dumps and now, feeling significantly out of the hole...significantly as in about 60-70% out of it. i still cant put it down just yet..but whatever...life moves on...
on a brighter note...
i got this..well i only own two of them only thou... im not that big a good charlotte fan neither am i a digi user..lol...haha...whatever. i admit that im not a big good charlotte fan, but im a big jason lo fan...haha...hope his performance tomorrow rocked the way he rocked the hitz.fm 10th birthday bash..speaking of which, was a great experience!!!!
im going cuz its kinda like a once of a lifetime thing here in malaysia...so why miss the oppurtunity. u'll never know when they will be coming back.. its kinda like a promo tour or a stop before they head on to Jakarta for their concert... their new album...good morning revival personally i prefer the previous album, Chronicles of Life and Death, but this one's ok. the songs in there are rather catchy and to name a few to those who dont know. they have 'keep your hands off my girl', 'the river', 'dance floor anthem' and 'something else'. .
besides good morning revival, the album i really cant wait to get my hands on is pre ordered mine in the pre-sale at tower records klcc and man was the store packed that day..one word describes it.."CRAZY!!!". really i do not think minutes to midnight will dissapoint as much as good morning revival. i personally think that good morning revival its not as good as the previous ones released by good charlotte. from the single from minutes to midnight " what i've done" hopefully the other songs are just as good. i mean meteora and hybrid theory as well as collision course did not dissapoint. why was it crazy at tower records? chester bennington of linkin park was there. he came for a little promo, meet and greet thing with his fans. got his autograph. it was really rush so the meeting was brief and short. spread poster, shoke hands, have a word or two, got his autograph and left..no pictures allowed either..aih..but its ok...counting the days to may 15th to get the new lp cd..
ok..this post sounds happier...haha
adios..

lo...feeling kinda better already...it seems people wants to know the full length of the story huh... well, not really looking to write here la..since i'm feeling kinda better already..its kinda off my mind for the moment...still in there but not in the surface... ok la...for a little more detail, talk to me.. or as a preface...its about my social life..get a hint? its like a liking somebody, but that somebody is going out with someone else and i do not know what i should do thing. enough? i leave the rest to your imagination...lol. anyway...advise is still welcomed...haha i got this from a phrase from some one, " censorship gives rooms for imagination". don't remember who said it.. again, really thankful to those who were concerned. it really cheered me up.
ok, thank goodness it kinda wear off, being able to get my mind of it for a moment and concentrate a bit more in my studies..( not really going too well either). i read, and read, and read the same page for i dont know how many times. *shoots self*
btw when u guys leave comments, please leave your name or a nickname from which i can identify you..at the moment its anonymous and i dont know who its from..really appreciate it thou...
thats all for the moment...study study study....soon it'll be work work work..but personally, and i think many others prefers play play play. agree?
adios
ok..din really sleep that well last nite...was up early and with nothing to do, catch up with me studies...well..its not goin that well it seems...thats why im here blogging....haha
i still cant get over the thing that is bothering me last night...sigh..its gonna kill me!!! as i think about it, i also start to think on how i have wasted my life and start to regret most of the things i've done and not done...sometimes i really do wish that someone is listening and will enlighten me..besides i hoped for the power to bend time and return to the past and change some stuff.
anyway thanks to those who helped me yesterday. thanks for listening and ur advices...dun think it'll really help but thanks anyway...in the case im in now..i think its worth a shot..
suicidals thoughts play around my head. (lol) i will not give in as i know im strong enough to resist it..but who knows for how long.....
a pretty emo post huh...enough of that....hopefully i can set this aside and concentrate in my studies or hope that by studying can help me get over this....
btw...good charlotte tickets given away...so anyone who still tries after this...TOO BAD!!!!! im goin to good charlotte concert tomorrow and maybe the meet and greet at subang parade too...hopefully i will have to strength to enjoy tomorrow given the things i have endured thus far..
adios....
its been a tiring day today....almost too tired to blog, but what the heck. since the laptop is on, im not reading, im facing the laptop, i have nothing better to do.
well, me and a bunch of friends went for dimsum for breakfast and man, was it a filling one. i'm not complaining but the food was good. even i've been there for countless times, the food don't seem to let me down. ( probably im too hungry in most of those occassions). after the brunch, cant really call it breakfast as its too late to be breakfast and too early for lunch. went to maison ( some club in kl, behind sheraton imperial) for some kind of meeting. man! the general manager is HUGE..and i mean HUGE!!!!! worked a deal and saw the place..its kinda a nice. after, we made a decision and canceled the appointment with zouk. itula...sapa suruh set appointment lewat lewat...
Soon after went to bangsar to study but no parking. to add to that, dbkl campers are there, leaning or peoples car, presumable waiting for someone to deliver their saman slips. ok.....since no parking, we end up going to ikano and some how end up in AnW. i strongly do not recommend going there to study...although we should not really go to fast food outlets to study.. but....mcD wasn't that bad, KFC is definately out and AnW can follow them. its stuffy, its smells like fried chicken. din really study, was really jaded then too, complimented to the fried chicken smell. end up doodling up my notes most of the time.
jalan alor the destination for dinner and man, it did not dissappoint. stingrays, clams, balitongs and oysters.....wahahaha...deh-lee-chi-oh-us. ( forget that..just use delicious). kinda costly too, but ok la...for that area and for what we ate....suddenly some thing crossed my mind, start to alienate myself and..aih. too tired la....or was it???haha.
seriously, im kinda torn right in the middle and i am not sure what to do. i dont want to make a foul move and leave a bad impression. but..whatever....can anyone recommend a good counselor to help me cure my uncertainty. decisions must be made, but the doubt of whether its the best one still looms. or can anyone give me an advice? its truly welcomed..haha
ok...time to stop being to emo and let life take its course..we can only truly enjoy life when we stop and sniff the roses...haha
thats all for today..nth much to add. btw..i have 1 more good charlotte pass. anyone? give me a holler and a good reason...the best one gets it...BUT...if none really impressed me, im giving it to someone who really deserves it....
ciao..

OK....its been a while since i blogged...well, c'mon i don't really have that much to blog about plus im being kinda 'busy' the past few months. ( d'uh!).
well, some updates, done my fyp, enjoy life since then and now dreading over exams that is hovering like some alien ufo from some far away galaxie in the corner. exxageration? maybe. i have been neglecting studies up late and less than week to go to the first paper, i still don't feel the need to study..(im sooo doomed). social life? still single, liking someone but not sure how to go about it..ala..complicated la. OK...shall not go into details...
lets see, what i've done since sending my thesis for binding, movies and more movies, slacking off, karaokes, hanging out, late nights, last minute stuff, going to events. ok, it does not sound like much but it really burns a hole ( a big one too) in my wallet. but, i dont think its all wasted. i gotta spend time with my pals before graduation, met pop shuvit, j lo and some hitz.fm crew, chester from linkin park and going to the good charlotte concert this weekend....plus exam in the following monday...that's why, i said i'm soooo doomed. lol
well many stuff happened this week. mainly, i got turned into an msn emoticon...i was like...wtf. damn im gonna get famous in msn...sheet. imagine my future colleagues using msn and telling me, " eh, this is you ar?". imagine that! aih...sudah la...wats done is done..cilaka u guys..got tickets to go watch good charlotte too, some from digi and a pair from hitz.fm cruisers. unfortunately they are not vips but i'll try to sneak in. speaking of which, i practically sapu-ed everything the cruisers have to offer today. btw, jj and rudi were there. 1st i got d passes via the hotlink version of 'simon says' . a riddle followed next and i got d package ( top gear and hot magazines, some hotlink stuff, gel, powerbar..i think thats a bout all). then the cd (blue october) was up for grabs, but jj tak kasi aku main..lol..so no cd, just passes and some stuff...but ok la..i was satisfied with the passes alone, i get to call more people...
i must say the term fu-yoh from digi is rather catchy. i replaces many catch phrases we usually use everyday..fuuuuyoh. me and a bunch of friends we're thinking, since digi took fuyoh, hotlink will have to fight it wity 'walaoyeah' and soon after celcom will come out with 'aiyoyo' (indian slang). ok,,let imaginations run wild as some of the brilliant inventions comes from stupid ideas...haha.
too add some stuff, i am now known as dan@fuuyo...thx to a friend of mine....u know who u are. i'd stress i have nothing to do with digi, except for collecting and using the digi passes to good charlotte (lol) and that i' am a loyal hotlink user for now...furthermore...danielle is a girls name..very misleading leh..
well, i think thats all for now. i got nth to write la..its soo 'early' now too..betta go get some shut eye..
