Dark Day

Sometimes there's things in life that are inevitable no matter how much you do not want it to happen.

Logical solution to it seems hard to accept as our feeling refused it.

It does not matter now whose fault it was as there's no measurement of right or wrong in it.

But when we remind ourself what we truly want, suddenly we seems to know what's the right thing to do.

Just find what you truly desire, and that's what i wanted.

你很爱他

I've always wanted to learn a chinese song and sing it together with my guitar, but never had the time and chance to do it. This is the song that captured my heart when i listen to it. Yes it's one of the song inside the CD you burn for me (it's still in my car cd player, listening to it every day). It took me some practice before i be able to pronounce the words close to the exact one. Not easy for those who do not know how to speak mandarin. But i've tried my best. I've copied down the lyric also.

I think this would be the only and last time i'll be doing this. Hope you would listen to it. This song is for you.

Haagen Dazs Fondue

Tried Haagen Dazs Fondue recently at Mid Valley. Wanted to tried it out long time.... but can't find a time for it until recently =)

The price is a bit pricey (RM 60++) considering the amount of stuff they're giving us. Nevertheless, it taste good and it's not a heavy meal, so you can take for you tea time or anytime before your dinner.



Very happy cuz finally going to tried it out, it was sold out the when we ordering it last time.


Hmm... long waiting for the fondue to be served.


Yay... here is it!


Here's the whole set. Bits of ice-cream, fruits and cookies.


Okay guys, here's the last chance you can have a peek of it. It's going way down into our stomach after this =)

Life

It's been a long long time since i last updated my blog. I'm just too busy with works and other stuff to even think of writing anything here. I don't even knows if anyone still visit to my blog. Ha ha....

A lot has happen during this period. Happy, sad, exhausted, uncertainties, feeling job well done, pressure, etc etc..... It's like a total package. A complete one. When someone think that life is easy they aren't. Why is that? I don't anyone have the definite answer to that. Do any of you? Sometimes tired is just tired. No matter how strong you are. On top of that, to make thing more complete, your family is adding all the stuff to you that makes things worst and worst.

Why are things like this........ you can't even do anything. It's like stopping a bulldozer with your bare hand. Which you definitely FAIL! And what to you can do? Nothing? I don't know. You don't know. No freaking people know.

This is adult life that we all have to face. Good or bad. Logically solution, learn to accept the reality and move on. But the fact is, we can't do that. We're human. We're no fucking computer which only have "IF" and "ELSE". We have feeelings.... things that we can't control totally. But that also what makes us unique and special.

Don't even know how to write on. just wanna say life not cherry and flower but full of malaysian pot holes!

Football Pitch Field Size

Football is a popular game here in Malaysia and people do get crazy for it. They love it! There's several types of football lover here and i'll put it in 3 different types.

1. Those who like to watch only.

2. Those who like to watch and does play football (so they claim to know more bout football than the 1st type).

3. Fanatics. Those who dig deeply into the clubs history and able to remember the whole damn players since the club is born.

These type that i've categories might not match perfectly to what we have here in Malaysia but it's close to the real situation.

Ok, so ... about football field. They ARE built in different sizes. Even those from type 2 football lover would made a silly statement of ALL FOOTBALL STADIUM FIELD ARE IN THE SAME SIZE!

Here i attached with some facts of different pitch sizes across europe. I strongly urge people to read up more before making any statement.
Publish






From the 3 stadium above there's a different of 5 meters between Highbury and other 2 pitch.



This is pick up from arsenal official site. Though there's standard UEFA size, but the fact is there's different pitch size being built.

Some fact by a blogger

I'm sure if you look at other field size you'll find they're different in sizes, not much but still different. nuff said.

Terima Kasih Indonesia

Here's a cool music video from our local Malaysian talent.

Slam Dunk Manga Greatest Moment

I'm always a big fans of Slam Dunk manga. I started reading it way back during my secondary school and i instantly got hooked to it. I would buy the new episode every release each month and a month is a very long period for me to know what going to happen NEXT! Being not able to read chinese is a big drawback if you're comic lovers as most to the japanese version are translated more accurate and faster(available in market faster) to chinese version. So i can only resort to a malay version as it's the only available version in the market that i understood. But it still good.

But, back then i can't get all of the episode because few of it not available from the market as they skip the episode. I don't know bout other place, but this is what happen in KL. I really got frustrated that time, but what can i do? I missed few episode in the middle and 2 episode at the end. Damn! And that's the situation until last week.

Last week i reading back some of my old comics and SNAP! why don't i search from the net? I googled for it and found torrent for "Slam Dunk Manga"! all of them.

Finally, after all these years..... i able to complete the story..... hahaha.

And here are the greatest moment in the entire story that i've waited for so many years.

Gender Equality

I do not believe that we have this in Malaysia. Talking about gender equality, BAH!! MY ASS!

Farewell on Valentine's Day

In these modern days sometimes we celebrate events without even knowing the reason why it exists in the first place. It's like the story of monkeys in the cage (if you heard bout that, never mind if you don't). I'm one of those people and overheard why Valentine's day exist from the radio. Basically St. Valentine is a priest who refused Roman Emperor Claudius 2's law ordering young men to remained single so that they'll become better soldier. Valentine however covertly perform marriage ceremony for young catholic men and been sentenced to death by the Emperor after it's been found out. Full story here.

This year Valentine's day is a bit special for me. It's my farewell day to my beloved colleagues as i'll be leaving them (ahem, *to a new company*). Though it's just a short period with them, they treat me very good and supportive though sometimes some of them tend to behave abnormally (you know who am i talking about). Really have fun during my tenure here.

Sometimes things doesn't enough with just that. A lot of other aspects has it shares of important. I'm regret that things didn't worked out and have to move on. But at least i got the chance to know these great peoples. Hope we can have the chance to work together again in the future!

Some photos taken during (me + Bee Leng) farewell + Kenny birthday lunch at Hanabi.


With Chooi, one of the most discipline person that i knew.


this lunch celebrate together with Kenny(in middle) birthday which falls on Valentine's Day eve. Happy Birthday dude!


(l-r). Wynn (do not mess with her or you'll face the unpredictable!) and Kenny my good neighbour who kept me out of bored all the time. Appreciate that.


(l-r). Chim, very supportive PM and taught me a lots of things. and Ritchie.


(l-r). Derick our department VP and Rathi.


(l-r). Michelle (used to be my senior in APIIT) and Kong our new team head.

For better or worst, this is the decision i've made after a thorough considerations. Thanks a lot and love you guys!

ps: thanks for the delicious lunch!

My Girlfriend Ryoko Hirosue?

I was surfing the web, reading some blogs and i came across this interesting stuff from kennysia blog. We always talk among our own group of friends who looked similar to whom and we laugh our heads off when they're matched with someone hideous or funny. Well, here's some easy ways to get all the similarity faces without cracking our brains for practically anyone with a copy of their head shot photos.

I tested it out eventually with available photos that i have hold possession of. Me and my girlfriend. and i got myself this.....


Highest percentage for kp, Ryoko Hirosue? hmm..... didn't know that i've a Japanese artist looked alike gf.


Second highest score, Son Ye-Jin. a Korean artist? i think i'm kinda lucky huh.


As for me, dang! i got Leslie Cheung? damn... i'm no gay man.... maybe the second score is better though i don't know who is him.


Second highest score.

It's pretty fun and you could test it out yourself at http://www.myheritage.com . When you're bored to death and got nothing to do maybe you can check it out. Just for fun though.

Peace.

Special Day

Everyone has their own special days. Every does, i guess. May it be a good or bad one. I have one too.... =) and this special days falls on the lovely 8th of January.

The weather was good on that particular night although it rains a bit in the later night. I enjoyed it very much on that night and hope i can do this every single years till the day i gave my last breath away.


start with a romantic dinner.


enjoying the dinner.


take a stroll and have some drink at KLCC fountain.


and got some magnificent view :)

Public Mindset

Here i am, sitting in front of my big bulky crt monitor practically doing nothing on a Friday night. A lots of people said that we should go out get some life or at least do something rather than staying at home.

Well... a lots of people tends to think that we should follow the norms so that we won't looked weird or be more acceptable to the mass peoples. True, to some extends such as you can't dig your nose in the public or do something illegal. Got what i mean? But sometimes peoples asked why do you
eats all you vegetable and then the meat, those kind of things. This is really over the board as WHY should one person MUST follows a specific flows or ways? Maybe it's our Malaysian education system that implants this mindset to our brains. I do not mean that other countries do not have this issues, but not until these level i guess. We start follows the "obeying instructions" thing from day one since we started our primary till the end of our secondary/form 6. We're not brought up in a environment whereby we need to think then act, but do what have been told. Over times, these is how we're being shaped into. And these is why we're lacking compare to other developed countries. What amazed me so much is that WHY our government failed to notice this critical point and do nothing to at least improves a little to our education system from time to time? *shaking head in disbelief*.

Introducing English as the medium to be used for science and maths do count as some improvements made by our education minister, but that does not improve on the critical aspects which is the ways people do things and think. It's true that mastering English would helps, but you still can't think creatively or have people to think that they need to provide solution rather than wait for instructions. Often we see that those who scores high marks does not necessary successful after they're graduated. And this shows that the education system does not reflects true potential of a students and this is wrong.

All these will directly affect us all and affect the country as well. Even the smallest things. Peoples in this country have been suppress and unable to perform to their maximum potentials. Sad thing eh...? but we're not in position to do anything but can only write it out here :)

Read a lots and question on everything, and we might stands a chance to makes things right again.

My Typical Sunday Activities

It's been some times since i posted my last blog. Going places and headache with some issues (glad it's over now). Well.... still waiting for my Penang trip photos before i can blog about it, in the meantime maybe i can post some photos i took during one of my weekends outing.

For those who're living in KL (or in some other cities) knows that there's not much things we can do, right? unless you have a gang of friends that have strong common interests that they can do together (such as hiking or dancing or etc... ^-^). and for the rest of us, it's either malls, movies, go eat somewhere nice, or sleep.

So.... on this particular Sunday on 07/01/2007 we went to catch a movie at Cineleisure. I'm not aware that so many of the previously vacant shop lots has been occupied now because it's totally nothing except for the cinema from my last visit here (few months back). I like the environment pretty much as it's spacious unlike some malls that's very cramp up, felt like you can't breath in there.

So here's are some of the photos.


This is my first picture of the day (ground level of CineLeisure).


Main Entrance.


One of my favorite brand.


Water fountain at "The Curves".


Does this fountain looks similar with the one in Bugis Singapore?


Walking towards "The Curves".


Passing by some kiosks (bad idea, not enough space how do they expect people to walk?? *grin*).


Some band playing some folk songs.


Tidy little mall (inside "The Curves") unlike Sg. Wang.


Taken from inside of a shop.


Fountain again! i think the building designer like water fountain alot (just located outside of the toilet).


This is taken after our movie.


I think for those who never been here *ahem* (which i think very unlikely unless they don't live in KL) might wanna take a glimpse of how it looks like.

After that we headed for foods at SS2 (which i didn't took any pictures so can't show here) as most of the shops here are packing their things up.

Well.... how's that? that's my typical Sunday. Maybe you guys could suggest any other nice activities?

Cheers....

Canon in D (Rock Version)

I've always loves this song as it gives me kinda inspiring feels. The song title is "Canon in D" by the famous Johann Pachelbel. It's full title would be (Kanon und Gigue in D-Dur für drei Violinen und Basso Continuo or Canon and Gigue in D major for three Violins with Bass Accompaniment) if you wanna know. It was written in 1680 but still a popular song now.

That's some history about the song. I've done some search on this song and to my suprise i've found some interesting variation of this fantastic song, Canon in D Rock! This special arrangment is done by a guy called JerryC from Taiwan. Here's the video links let me know if you too find it nice.

Growing Grass in Your Office

We all know plants are pleasant to eyes and gives you some relaxing feels when they're somewhere around or within your visual sights. But how often do have the chance to growing or planting one? Obviously not with our usual hectic schedules and we can't just plant something without any knowledge about planting.

Well, if you like some living greenery beside you (you can grew it in your office), there's a way for you to easily achieves it. There's some prepacked grass beans in some medium sold out there. I got mine from my Cameron's Highland trips at RM10 for 5 units. They're made in all sort of shapes and sizes. It's very easy to grow it. Just put some water at the bottom of this thing and just leave it anywhere that there's lights. The grass will start growing after approximately 1 week after you consistently supply water to it.

Here's the progress snapshots.


Initial Stage.


After 1 week.


After 3 weeks.

Doesn't it looked cute? You'll feel the statisfaction of growing something yourself (especially for those who never planted anything before in his/her life). It's quite pleasant to have some nature stuff sitting nearby you while you're surrounded by all sorts of electronic machines and gadgets.

So, if you think you might wanna grew something like this, maybe this would be a good startup. Have fun!

Baskin-Robbins Mid Valley Little Pets

It was this day on 31 October where i drove all the way from Sri Petaling to Mid Valley to get some yummie Baskin-Robbins ice creams because they have 31% discount on 31st of any month which has 31 day. This was my second time buying on this promotions day from this particular outlet. Well, it's quite a deal because you're getting something on a lower price. So, i happily parked my car and headed straight to the outlet. It was packed with people waiting for their turn to order, so i silently took a number and waited patiently for my turn.

tick tok tick toc .... finally it's my turn (after approximately 30 minutes) yay!...

So.... i put down my order of ice cream, paid the cashier and wait happily for the staff to pack them. Suddently i saw some "Baskin-Robbins Pets"! How cute they're! My god! I quickly snap it with my phone camera.


It's a crockroach (siu keong)!


Zoomed in of the above photo.

Dammit! This outlet is not clean and they're not doing enough cleaning and prevention! I've just paid for my ice cream and after all this long queue and all i get is this shits??

On another thought, maybe it just crawled in from outside and furthermore it's on the other side of where they stored their ice cream, big chance the stocks are not affected by it. So i took my orders anyway and i'll never ever coming back to this outlet again. So any Baskin-Robbins fans out there please be careful, but.... they're still a nice ice creams.

Cameron Highlands Trip

This is my 3 days 2 nights trip to Cameron Highlands on the 1st September 2006 with my lovely KP. It was my 2nd visit to this nice little highlands and i still find it to be a very nice place to relax and spend some quality time with someone =). Though this was my first experience driving up to Cameron Highlands, i still find it quite easy to locate with some visuals guidance from my project manager Chim, thank you.

Driving up from the old route (Tapah) is quite a nightmare when there's some big trucks or lorries passing by your car from the opposite directions with a mere few inches, phew.... so just try to keep a comfortable distants from them if possible. Freakin me out each time those big wheels passes by. Other than that, everything else is okay.

Booking a room in Cameron Highlands during peak seasons is quite a hassle as i've spend few hours browsing website and calling the hotels for securing a room for 2 nights (i did it in 2 week advance mind you). Ends up i managed to get a room in a budgeted hotel in Brinchang town which is still okay apart from the sudden malfunction of the water heater when you're using it for too long (grr...).

Here's some snapshots of the memorables trip...



Steamboat dinner with KP, Meiru and Desmond(taking picture for us) at Brinchang town which is not that good (in terms of quality and quantity) compares to Sri Petaling's Ho Ho Steamboat.


Brinchang night market.

To conclude this whole trip, i would say that it was a pleasant holiday and this place is definitly a great place for someone to unwind from the hectic city lifestyle as it has cool, easy goin, and relax enviroment up here.
