Why do we dream and hope? Izt becoz of our desire? Izt becoz of greed? Izt becoz it it's like a mirror that reflects our inner most desires and wants? Izt becoz we are unsatisfied with our current self and yearn for more? Or izt becoz we are human?
Dreams and hope motivate us to take the next step forward into the unknown in search for what we dream and hope for. Sometimes, if one works hard enuff and with a little bit of lady luck, dreams sometimes come true.
I had dreams and hope too... And I seen enuff of these dreams and hope come crashing down to the solid earth to know despite how many times one may experience such thing, it will always still hurt when your dream and hope goes up in blazing flames. So I just felt very depressed suddenly becoz of for no apparent reason I fear dreaming and hoping. We only grow through suffering, but yet for some reason I'm unable to convince my true inner conscience of that statement. Watever the argument, I dun think I can stop my inner self from dreaming and hoping hence all the suffering I am going to endure make me very very depressed.

If happiness can be bought..how much would u willing to pay?
I saw this message on one of my former collegue's msn personal message... And it got me to wear my thinking cap for a few short minutes to ponder about it and decided to blog out my train of thoughts so one day, when I more older (and hopefully more wiser), I can look back at this entry and have a glimpse of my younger self. Have I changed? Am I more bitter, Am I more nihilist? Am I more miserable? Am I more whacky? Have I repented? Do I think the past self is a goddamn stupid wuss? ... And despite all changes that occurred during the ravages of time, Am I inside, my core self, my soul, my true self, unchanged? Anyway for those who want to hear my answers for the questions above will have to wait 10 years from today, ie 23 December 2018, Assuming I'm still alive then. Anyway back to the topic above...
The first thing that comes into my mind is I'm willing to pay 0 cent for it. Abit of reflection, I come to realize that it's "The Pure" me speaking, "The Pure" me views happiness as something , eh well pure. Something that transcend petty things like money, so it would be a mockery to try to purchase such pure thing with money. After all haven't u heard before the phrase "The best things in life is free".
But then "The Logic" me kicks in and screams "Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wat kinda naive n f*cked up logic is tat? F9 for Logical/Critical/Realistic thinking dude. If happiness is worth more than money, shouldn't you trade every money you have for it? Besides the current world you live in resolve around moolah, so grow up kiddo!".
Suddenly "The Monk" inside me comes out with a stick and hits "The Logic" Me with the stick on the head and points his index finger up to the sky. "Life is suffering, Desire leads to suffering, ..." but before "The Monk" finished his sentence, "The Rage" Me has already stuck a black bag on top of "The Monk" head from behind and landed a *Wham* cheap chair shot on him. "Happiness is just temporary, after it's over we will suffer, Blablabla... Yayaya, we all heard that phrase like a kazillion times before, so put a sock in it will ya!", "The Rage" shouts out.
"The Depress", "The Apathy" and "The Nihilist" me silently watch the spectacle from the sideline. They echo the same phrase "Watever..."
I lay back on my imaginary expensive sofa recliner and watch silently, amused as more of imaginary versions of myself fights, bicker and b*cth about the topic above. I realized the answer to the topic no longer matter to me, my interest is at how many versions of myself I have that is part of me as a whole... A f*cked up version of myself in ragged t shirt, unshaven beard, uncombed hair, slippers and short pants walks up to me and said "Guess I won"... I merely nod as a response and say "I guess you did, Slacker Me"...
To celebrate a miserable week, I went to Republic @ Sunway Piramid to taste a glass of Chocolate Diamond. Consisting of vodka, tea (WTF???) and tiny bits of kissess chocolates served in rounded cocktail glass, I was wondering to myself while waiting for this cocktail to be serve, since we usually drink tea to counter the after effects of alcohol, since we're mixing em together here, Does that mean I won't have the so much of the after effects of alcohol after drinking tis baby?
Well I found out upon my first few sips, the tea doesn't entirely mask the alcohol taste, but the combination of alcohol, tea and tiny chocolaty taste coming from the kissess chocolate in this cocktail was quite unique. As bonus after sipping tis sucker down, u can also munch the bits of chocolate in the cup (I got 5 tiny bits), Hahaha... And after effect wise, yes! It's still there at, tak rasa pun the effects of the tea (Maybe too small dosage de the tea portion). Price RM 21 (+tax).
On the nite Test face the great one this is wat he'll see, 12 Sharpshooters stinging, 11 Eye brows raising, 10 Spine of busting, 9 nugget socking, 8 kicks of kicking, 7 punches punching, 6 suplex smashing, 5 seconds of the people chanting The Rock's name,
4 Rock Bottoms, 3 People's elbow on your, 2 Butt teeth and, 1 @$$ kicking all over New Orleans.
I'm bloggin from my old deskop PC for the 1st time since 1 year ago. Y? Coz the lappy is wasted... My Dell Inspiron 1420 seems to have either a gpu or mobo problem as my screen goes a empty black screen. I tried hooking up a external monitor but wat appears is a distorted screen. I did some diggin on the net and found that my gpu, Nvidia 8400M seems to be defective. The GPU go karput after overheating. So far no formal response from Nvidia or Dell on this matter. Dell has however offer a 12 month extension to warranty for specific model lappy with this defective GPU. My warranty has expired a couple months ago, so I might giv Dell a call soon.
But the main problem is what is the resolution for this problem? Many people have reported Dell have simply replace their mobo n gpu with the same version one. So we are getting the same defective gpu tat will have a chance to karput in the next 12 months? I dunno wtf is goin on but I already starting to regret purchasing this gpu unit. Sure, my lappy could handle a fair amount of high level games but with the risk of my lappy goin karput anytime especially at critial moment, I can't help to regret paying less for a lousy intel graphic card instead. Save me the $ and trouble.
I sure hope Nvidia and major OEM involved in tis matter issue out a callback for the defective gpu and have them replace with a gpu of equivalent value and without a defective flaw. However, I doubt such action will even persuade me to purchase anymore product from these 2 sides as the way they handle tis matter seems really f*ck. No phone call, No email (Talk about being top OEM but a goddamn email also can't sent to inform the client on tis matter, So if the gpu no burn down are u guys planning to lets the defective gpu continue till it karput?). Instead of recognizing the issue and taking prompt action, neither side really did any BIG action and still model with this defective gpu are being rolled out to unsuspecting peoples like I was. Shouldn't these model (or atleast this GPU) be stop from rolling out already since you already know there's a defect?
Final advice, Stay away from Nvidia until they sorted out tis mess. Theirs action is a good indication of wat kinda service you will get from them as a customer.
Snow falling gently to the ground 'Tis the night before And in my heart there is no doubt That this is gonna be The brightest holiday 'Cause here you are with me Baby baby I can't wait

~I'm on the top of the world lookin down on creation...
Dun ya just love the feeling when everything come together after alot of hardwork and toils? *Ring*, *Ring* Ring any bells?
Anyway got tat feeling awhile ago, however from experience (plus from being my pessimistic self) I learned from my life experience usually tis kinda thing is followed by the "comes crashing down to the earth from the sky" event. So I'm trying to depress myself so the oncoming train won't hurt me so much. I mean, how can you be miserable if u are already miserable?
My personal favorite way to get depress, walk alone around a shopping mall fulled with peoples (3rd best is meeting an old successful "fren").
I come to realized the best way to gain personal peace is to seek the total opposite. How do you know joy if dun know wat is sadness to begin with?
What could be more chaotic then a bunch of peoples walking in a shopping mall? Totally different race, face, background... I never seem to be able to cease myself from looking at rapt amazement when I look down from the mall's top floor at the hundred of peoples moving around down below. Sorta feels like the same serene feeling when I was a kid and tried counting the falling raindrops from the window side.
Hundred of peoples who are lofting around the mall, hundred of peoples who have someone special to live their life with, hundred of people chasing and achieving their dreams, hundred of peoples living their life.
I think I'm depressed whenever I walk in Mall alone cause I think realized I am forever doomed as a rock in the middle of a flowing river... No special 1 page newspaper article on how rocking I am, No chicks clad in bikini surrounding me while I drive my Ferrari, No Ferrari to get laid in with the bikini clad chicks, No realizing of my maximum potential, No one to share my life with, No wealth, No dreams, No ambitions, No understanding of myself, No understanding of the world, No faith, No God... Maybe a single urn at the end...
Yea, I think I managed to depress myself already... Just gotta love this bloggin thing... (Btw bloggin depressing things is my 2nd way of getting depress)
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall, We used to love while others used to play. Dont ask me why, but time has passed us by, Some one else moved in from far away.
First of May - Bee Gees
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall, We used to love while others used to play. Dont ask me why, but time has passed us by, Some one else moved in from far away.
(chorus) Now we are tall, and christmas trees are small, And you dont ask the time of day. But you and i, our love will never die, But guess well cry come first of may.
The apple tree that grew for you and me, I watched the apples falling one by one. And I recall the moment of them all, The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.
(chorus...)
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall, Do do do do do do do do do... Dont ask me why, but time has passed us by, Some one else moved in from far away.
I think there must be something wrong with me. X'mas is coming but I'm not happy. I dun feel the way I'm supposed to feel. Just don't understand X'mas I guess. I like getting presents and sending Christmas cards, and decorating trees and all that, but I'm still not happy. I always end up feeling depressed.
Christmas Time Is Here
Christmas time is here Happiness and cheer Fun for all that children call Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air Carols everywhere Olden times and ancient rhymes Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air Beauty everywhere Yuletide by the fireside And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here We'll be drawing near Oh, that we could always see Such spirit through the year Oh, that we could always see Such spirit through the year...
Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here" He searched his pockets frantically Then he turned and he looked at me He said Mama made Christmas good at our house Though most years she just did without Tell me Sir, what am I going to do, Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes
So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out I'll never forget the look on his face when he said Mama's gonna look so great
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time You see she's been sick for quite a while And I know these shoes would make her smile And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
[Bridge:] I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love As he thanked me and ran out I knew that God had sent that little boy To remind me just what Christmas is all about.
[Chorus] x 2 Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day, you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shyed I keep my distance but you still catch my eye Tell me baby Do you recognize me Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me Merry Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying 'I love you', I meant it Now I know what a fool I've been But if you kiss me now, I know you'd fool me again
[Chorus] x 2
A crowded room and friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you and your soul of eyes My God, I thought you were someone to rely on Me, I guess I was a shoulder to cry on A face on a lover with a fire in her heart A man on a cover but you tore me apart And now I found you loving, you'll never fool me again
I wondered among all the multiracial celebrations, Christmas is always the one I feel most connect with though I ain't a Christian. Maybe it's the mood that I can feel that I hardly feel anymore from other celebrations. The mood I feel on xmas is the quiet but comforting feel, quite matches my personality noes (minus the comformting)?

Did you ever say yes to a pleasure? Oh my friends, then you also said yes to all pain. All things are linked, entwined, in love with one another. What does not kill me, makes me stronger. - Friedrich Nietzsche
Why would someone with no desires for money join "Who want's to a Millionaire" for? Tat is apparently the tagline for tis movie.
Was kinda slackin around the internet when i stumble across a video clip of Kamal answering a question in the "Who wanna be a Millionaire" before getting blur f*ck when he was told he answer it correctly and asking the host "Are you nervous?". It enuff of stir my curiosity todo a simple internet search which reveals a plotline that really interest me. The storyline seem to follow the format of how he came to know the answers for the seemingly impossible to answer questions in the contest from his life experience. This is a very innovative storytelling method that really aroused my interest for this movie.
I mean our personality is so claimed to be consist of two parts, our self as we are born as and our self as we are as we grow through interaction with our environment. I think it would be interesting to see how particulars peoples, events and things affect our personality. While I haven't seen this movie, I get the feeling that the impossible to answer questions in the "Who wanna be a Millionaire" are actually symbolic representation on aspects of our self as who we are, what we know, how we would react to certain things, our perspective in life, ultimately our experience in life, and I really dig tat.
Unfortunately tis movie is not available in Malaysia yet (Dunno even if it will make it to our shores)... *Sigh*
Just had my fortune told via a internet website. How can I live without the World Wide Web...
Anyway here was the reading I got:
The Hanged Man:
Pausing to reflect. Surrendering to an experience. Adjusting to new ideas through sacrifice. Opening oneself to intuition and enhanced awareness. Letting go of past patterns and growing beyond them. Inner peace, faith, and serenity.
Someone cries and it washes the street with tears But when they are mine, they collect in my head for years Rain or shine, still I'm standing on all I said 'Cause it's in my soul, carry on when the feeling's dead
[Chorus] But if you can't hold on Let it go and come back in your heart And if you can't hold on Maybe it's not time for you And if you can't hold on On your very last try I'll be there in the morning to pull you through
Someone dies late at night and I never know And even if I did, so afraid of the face I'd show I feel trapped and enslaved to this dark contrast Need a feeling now, give me something that's going to last
[Chorus]
I want to be free I want to be free I want to be free Yes, I want to be free I want to be free Yes, I want to be free Oh, I want to be free Yes, I want to be free
You say you want to be free But you can't fool me You say you want to be free Oh, but you can't fool me You say you want to be free But you can't fool me You say you want to be free Oh, but you can't fool me
Oh, and if you can't hold on You can't hold on (Can't hold on) You can't hold on (Can't hold on) I'll be there, I'll be there
Oh, and if you can't hold on Let it go and come back in your heart And if you can't hold on Maybe it's not time for you And if you can't hold on On your very last try I'll be there so you know that you're not alone
Really wanted to say this to the fuckin assclown who broke my car window, FUCK U!!! For a f*ckin 10-20 bucks that I may have in my car, u ended up costing me RM150 bucks to fix my damn window, not to mention the shock I receive to see a god damn hole in my car window, so FUCK U!
Wat can I say... I seen Negro Robocop, blonde Kyuzo, Malaysian Simon Cowell wannabe but Gaijin Kamen Rider... Wow...
A loosely based adaption of Kamen Rider Ryuki, I dunno how tis series is goin to turn out, a memorable adaption of Kamen Rider or mondo garbage crap like the last Kamen Rider series adapted by US film maker (Who can forget the US Masked Rider series with the damn puppet alien pet Ferbus which I won't be suprised if it turns out to be the ancestor of Jar Jar Blinks).
I admit the few first seconds where the motorbike henshin is kinda cool but I sure hope it's just ain't a watergun teaser. But honestly the "Kamen Rider" instead of "Henshin" really has to go...
After 1 week+ of torment... It FINALLY came out... Si Fuk Sai... It's looks clear and white, so I guess I'm ok. For this 1 week+ period it just dun wanna come out, damn uncomfortable... Eat, Work, Sleep also beh song ar... I keep trying to make it come out, but it damn kwai lan... I even resorted to drugs to make it come out, but also to no avail... Very hard la it just don't want come out, I talk to people also people see me also beh song ar...
But just now, it just came out... Just like tat... *Snap*. Still got abit of it still dun wanna come out but after just coughing out that large portion of the phlegm feel much much better... Having a flu sucks... But having to live with phlegm stuck in ur throat sucks worst...
While doing my usual rounds of slacking at Facebook, I saw this totally freakin c00l song as a comment to my old bros shoutout "is going to singapore on sunday... there goes my sunday... :(".
Geylang, Si paku geylang, Geylang, Si ayam ayam, Pulang, Marilah pulang, Marilah pulang, Bersama ayam.
It's amazing the kinda crap you can find in social networks such as Facebook...
Today while slacking of in Facebook I saw the shoutout of my old college mates, "is grateful that his wife and son are safe.. at last little jayden is born!!". For some reason, I sorta get flashbacks moment during my college days with this dude.
Carefree, No motivation to study, spends more time at the Snooker centers than the lecture room, It's definitely hard to forsee the changes he had undertaken. Finally quitting the IT major after he flunk several semesters, he went into Business major. There his life undergone a divine metamorphosis. I heard he got his degree and found a wife a few years back (Though I dunno if his addiction for snooker ever got straighten out). Now just a few days ago, he is now a father. A father... I can only imagine the weight of the responsibilities that come along that title. I envy him for that reason. To be able to dedicate his remaining life towards his family. I dunno if this is blindness or boldness in accepting such responsibility. Yet all I wanna say now is "Congrats Dude"...
Watch tis movie last Sat nite... Went in expecting an action packed with 0% logic storyline. 4 words to sum the movie, "Play the game instead".
I dunno is the director trying to emulate the Dark Knight or wat, but their mixture of drama and action really beh cham (can't mix). The storyline is a lame as a lame mule and the action (while quite so-so) is so little. The story also feels very disjoint through the movie. U imagine the action game, u take away 80% of the actions from the quest, onli got go A, go B, go C, the outcome is tis movie la. The boss fight also really disappointing. I also think the rip off scene from Gladiator really sux. Finally, no bazooka? WTF!?
Had one of these last Fri nite at T-Club at Bangsar. Taste like well, like spicy hot tomato. For starters never liked tomato juice but the Tabasco really makes drinking tis very weird. Can't taste the alcohol at all. Main ingredient for this drink is tomato juice, vodka, tabasco and lemon.
Anyway for pricing wise, the cocktails looks cheaper (Rm 15 before tax for this bloody drink). Also alot of gaijin that Bangsar Jalan Telawi. Abit quiet probably since still Raya.
Initial plan was to go Sunway, but I missed the hangover bridge coupled with some brilliant short cut directions from Suke, we ended up at Bangsar. Then wanted to try out the Oasis but to our dismay dunno y takada buka. So ended up at Jalan Telawi... Been almost 2-3 years since last been to that area.
The term bohemian, of French origin, was first used in the English language in the nineteenth century to describe the untraditional lifestyles of marginalized and impoverished artists, writers, musicians, and actors in major European cities. Bohemians were associated with unorthodox or anti establishment political or social viewpoints, which were often expressed through non-marital sexual relations, frugality, and/or voluntary poverty
Why the f*ck aren't we taught these thing in school? Guess some idiot thinks it's better for u to know E = MC^2 or Baik Hati is blablablabaa...
Anyway, I got the urge to go checkout this play in a real theater.
Rent is a rock musical, with music and lyrics by Jonathan Larson based on Giacomo Puccini's opera La Bohème. It tells the story of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York's Lower East Side in the thriving days of the Bohemian East Village, under the shadow of AIDS.
Dunno y, but really like stories that are based upon young struggling people that living their life for art or music or something outside the goddamn corporate mondo garbage. From the video, you can really see these actors really sinking their damn teeth into the roles they are playing, Sorta reminds me of my short role in theater play as #Voice No.3 during my college day. Just gotta love the part where the dude in glasses spurts out "Sex Drive", WAHAHAHA...
Had a shot at the laundry bar awhile ago to celebrate my freedom from my sex coding mistress Miss Websphere Portal. Wanted to tryout the Porn Star or Scooby Snack cocktail but takada in menu, so ended up testing the Brave Bull cocktail instead. Mixed from Kahlua + Tequila, this sucker's taste dun really register with my taste bud. Dun like the sweet taste + alcohol taste... Maybe 1st time drink not used to the taste yet, but still prefer the Lemon Drop Shots taste which is sour, which sort of masks the alcohol taste. Anyway this sucker cost around RM18 (include tax), which is quite cheap (Atleast cheaper than the Irish Pub in Midvalley and comparable to the Pub in Sunway). As for effect, felt the effect not long after sipping it down. Lasted around 15+ mins then just felt sleepy. Maybe starting to get immune to the alcohol effect...
Today's finally da day... Ironic a year ago, the same time I resign, only this time I'm getting "fired" due to excessive playing of Facebook, Friendster, Flickr and Google Gadget Super Mario (Ok, Ok, Bejeweled and Pacman too) during workin hours...
Sayonara IBM Websphere Portal, It been fun making up puns like RIP (Rest In Portal), May we never cross path again. Yet again, the future is hard to predict especially in tis farked up IT field but I'll be damned if I ever choose a career path anywhere near u again.
525,600 minutes, How do you measure, measure a year? For those programmer freakz who say "How bout in LOC?", dun make me come shove ur laptop up ur @$$!
Just watch tis movie awhile ago. Flawed but enjoyable movie so I giving 7 outta 10. If you enjoyed Joe Black or City of Angels, you'll probably enjoy tis movie as well.
The movie, divided into the 3 sub stories, we see through the eyes of Chiba (Takeshi Kaneshiro) a Grim Reaper, ordinary people (a young lady, a yakuza and a old lady) living their not so special but important life. 3 cases handle by Chiba, as he watches these people through their last 7 days before deciding to "Proceed" or "Suspend" their death. Ultimately all 3 story is interwoven as one in the last story...
I have to admit the opening scene really got me by surprise. Most part of the movie have a happy tone to it thanks to the puns by Chiba. Make no mistake, while the movie itself is themed after the Grim Reaper, it spins a tale that focuses more on Life rather than Death. And its hard to justify the decisions Chiba made as we expected Chiba to "Suspend" their death but the final message is "It's not important if we die or life as long we live a life to its fullest". Many reviews actually view the 2nd tale on the yakuza as the weakest part of the story. I beg to differ. While the story may seen disjointed from the other 2 stories, this story I felt holds a hidden meaning that makes it shines just as bright the other two story.
Having said that, the movie ends rather in the open ended manner, leaving it as a test to the viewers on Chiba's decision to "Proceed" or "Suspend" the death of a old women whom lived life to its fullest. Another plus to the movie is the actress Manami Konishi. I agree with the comment of one of the guys who sat near me, at first glance she looks normal, but if you looks closer and longer, you will notice she is definitely beautiful.
"We reapers are the producers of the final performance in someone's life"
You wanna convict someone do using proper channels la... ISA ppl for wat leh? Want straight tangkap, why we got Justice system somemore leh? To pai sui (decorate cantik) ar?

You say you want to be free But you can't fool me You say you want to be free Oh, but you can't fool me You say you want to be free But you can't fool me You say you want to be free Oh, but you can't fool me
Oh, and if you can't hold on You can't hold on (Can't hold on) You can't hold on (Can't hold on) I'll be there, I'll be there
Oh, and if you can't hold on Let it go and come back in your heart And if you can't hold on Maybe it's not time for you And if you can't hold on On your very last try I'll be there so you know that you're not alone
Felt like an old rundown volkswagen car while jogging today. While jogin, a young chick with headphones jog pass me... After 2 laps lagging behind her arse, finally overtake her. Lead for a 1/2 lap before habis gas. She overtook me back and to add insult to injury, overclock me again on the next lap. Nia seng, see her jog selamba aje... I jog like 1/2 mati, *Sigh*... Now I think about it, I'm almost in my late 20's. My body should be at it's peak, yet tis kinda performance really make me wonder...
Ok, dunno y Dicksuke feelin like "I want to be a better man, etc... blablabla...". Anyway Dicksuke wanted to jalan jalan cari makan, so after wishing him a happy b'day (Thanks to notification by Facebook, btw dunno his b'day wat date also since Facebook no put date in da email), I try to con him into treating a true good fren aka me to a expensive dinner. Anyway after a brief lawyer buruk conversation in msn, we ended up setting a trip to Carey Island (My suggestion) to eat hoi sin (Seafood) on the weekend (today).
Been almost 4-5 years since I last ate there. Ate there last time with my relatives whom travel down from Ampang to Klang just to eat there... *Sigh* Dunno y KL ppl like tis, so like to travel *so* far just to eat some cheap food, I mean u count petrol + toll + travel time already cost more than the amount u save eating cheap hoi sin la. So without running from tis blog entry topic, instead of continue complaining about KL ppl (which probably need 10MB space), let me focus on trip to eat hoi sin at Carey Island instead...
The original plan was 5 monks, ehh.. I meant 5 males that are still single and still have no galfren to drive 17km to Carey Island to eat Hoi Sin. Since MFR already had plans to go *fishing* and Acapan didn't response well to eating with us monks, 3 monks good buddies which include Suke, Spelly n me end up making the trip. Suke offered to drive since he wanna showoff his lousy GP@$$ he just bought. Anyway the GP@$$ performance was simply, wat I call "calculating, calculating, calculating...". Sohai GP@$$, Suke took one wrong turn to hollan onli mah, need kau peh kau buu meh... Calculating, Calculating, Calculating... Calculating wat la? Beh hiao, mah kong beh hiao la...
Anyway we reach our destination, Kang Guan Seafood Restaurant just at the left hand side of the bridge to Carey Island. Sori, I no camera or camera on my phone unlike most ppl so can't take pix, so have to rely on simple plain broken english words to describe the dishes we demolished. We ordered:
Fried Lala - Dun like eat lala tat clam big. Spelly say ok la tis lala, since no other smell. I wondering he eat punya lala got wat other smell one.
Lala omelette - As suke commented, not sticky enuff the lala n the omellete. Need sticky onli when chew got the "WAH" taste mah.
Kong Pou Heh Koh - The sos taste very nice, but the heh koh abit hard inside. Prefers the hard outside and soft n tender inside heh koh.
XXX Vege - Forgot Chinese name for this sayur de, Typical vege u can see in chinese dishes anyway. So, so...
Asam Ang Choh Fish - Nice, the asam sos nice and the fish also yum yum...
We chiak gah beh chiak, ordered too much... When bill come, Rm 78... KL ppl will say "Walau eh, so cheap..." but since I Klang ppl, must act like one so I say "Walan eh, so expensive..." Just kiddin la, Rm 78 ok la, considering we have inflation (Thx to a particular Bodoh punya orang).
I've looked for love in stranger places, but never found someone like you. Someone whose smile makes me feel I've been holding back, and now there's nothing I can't do.
'Cause this is real, and this is good. It warms the inside just like it should, but most of all it's built to last.
All of our friends saw from the start. So why didn't we believe it too? Whoa yeah, now look where we are. You're in my heart now. And there's no escaping it for you.
'Cause this is real, and this is good. It warms the inside just like it should, but most of all it's built to last.
Walking on the hills that night with those fireworks and candlelight You and I were made to get love right
'Cause this is real, and this is good. It warms the inside just like it should, but most of all it's built to last.
'Cause you are the sun in my universe, considered the best when we've felt the worst and most of all it's built to last.
Simply love how they mix the piano, the electric guitar, the bass, the drum and the vocals in this song, as if it's built to last...
They say drinking won't help solve any problem, but I say it does temporary drown away the pain. Maybe it's work, maybe it's tis fuckin thurdays, maybe it's just me, but I feel fuckin depressed today. Went to walk around Piramid to take my mind of things and maybe have a little cocktail. Planned to have the cocktail when I was goin to leave the damn mall coz I dun wanna parade around the damn mall like a drunkard, but half way through the mall, I just can't take it anymore and went for one cuppa of booze, cocktail, alchohol, or watever... One thing I noticed after drinking was I'm still depressed but only depressed and drunk. I mean, think about it, "depress", it sounds so... so.. depressing... but u add the word drunk to it, "depress n drunk", atleast it sound goddamn cooler. After that cuppa of drink, I really feel less depress then before. Why? Becoz of the goddamn headache! that's y. The headache stops my goddamn brain from fuckin thinking, which really make me fuckin less depress. Yea, i feel like one of those Indian drunkards (Whom I often think are f*ckin idiots) that used to get drunk behind my old grandpa's sundry shop drinking samsu, but wat the heck, atleast it gives me a peace of mind of awhile.
Meet some very old classmates recently... One classmate particularly that I meet on Facebook, it been almost 6+ years (Wow, 6 years...) since I last saw him, he currently in the US. Probably doing something c00l with his life, every time I see these people that is doing something with their life, anything... I always get depress... It's always hard to not measure myself against my friends... Envy? Self-loathing? Watever...
"~It's just waiting for you"
Whenever I hear that part, I ask myself "What is?".
Must remind myself never to get into contact with other old classmates.
If I told you a secret You won't tell a soul Will you hold it and Keep it alive
Cause it's burning a hole And I can't get to sleep And I can't live alone In this life
So look up, take it away Don't look da-da-da-down The mountain
If the world isn't turning Your heart won't return Anyone, anything, anyhow
So take me, don't leave me Take me, don't leave me Baby, love will come through It's just waiting for you
And you stand at the crossroads Of highroads and lowroads And I've got a feeling It's right
If it's real what I'm feeling There's no make believing The sound of the wings Of the flight
Of a dove, take it away Don't look da-da-da-down The mountain
If the world isn't turning Your heart won't return Anyone, anything, anyhow
So take me, don't leave me Take me, don't leave me Baby, love will come through It's just waiting for you
Oh, look up, take it away Don't look da-da-da-down
If the world isn't turning Your heart won't return Anyone, anything, anyhow
So take me, don't leave me Take me, don't leave me Baby, love will come through It's just waiting for you
Love will come through Love will come through Love will come through
Note: Just finished Wonderfalls, didn't knew the finale had tis song as it's ending... Sure bring backs memories... And some motivation to continue forward.
I want to see what people saw I want to feel like I felt before I want to see the kingdom come I want to feel forever young I want to sing To sing my song I want to live in a world where I belong I want to live I will survive And I believe that it won't be very long If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn Then we might learn So where's the stars? Up in the sky And what's the moon? A big balloon We'll never know unless we grow There's so much world outside the door I want to sing To sing my song I want to live in a world where I'll be strong I want to live I will survive And I believe that it won't be very long If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn And if we turn, turn, turn, turn Then we might learn Turn, turn, turn, turn Turn, turn, turn And if we turn, turn, turn, turn Then we might learn Learn to turn
Ya, having a double RnR weekend for these 2 weeks. Tis weeks the RnR means Rest N Relaxation... but last week it was a f*ckin awesome Rock N Roll!
Ok, since I thought of the double RnR gag, lets take the concept of double and up it up another notch. I'm splitting the MFR and me, rockin exploits to 2 blogs entries. One on the Singfest and another the SG trip itself. Since I can still feel "The Rock", lets kick it off with Singfest one first!?
It's already around 1+ am on this very very hot Sunday morning. The sound of music suddenly comes to a jarring stop...
"Okay everyone I want to make a deal, lets do something on the last chorus, and I need everyone cooperation, ya. I know I got everyone here but wat about people standing at the back, ya. You all up there, ya you and then the people somemore at the back ya, leaning on the... leaning on the stand... hello? Just wave if you can hear me. Do you have ears? Yes, yes, you. And up there as well, up on the veranda, Can you hear us, yes? yes? Okay everyone listen on the last chorus we going to get this festival biggest ever pogo goin okay? Do you know wat the pogo is? It was invented by the the caveman, the first ever dance, ever. And it was invented about, i dunno, 25 million years ago, maybe 100 million years ago. It's really simple, u just jump right up like tis. Alrite. I think you can manage that. How you all doin up in the veranda!? Hello? Hello? Ya, they're now not listening ya. Get into the party. Okay, on the final chorus, do we have a deal everyone? Yes? Okay, okay, okay. And all the people sitting at the back on ur asses, get up pls, Tis is the last song and it's easy. Okay on the last chorus, I will give u the signal. 1, ..."
"I cant sleep tonight, Everybody saying everythings alright, Still I cant close my eyes, Im seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights, Sunny days, (Hold on) Where have you gone?, I get the strangest feeling you belong..."
The pandora box has just been opened...
"Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?"
I felt a hand slung on my shoulder, it belongs to the stranger dude standing next to me who is already doin da pogo with the rest of the crowd. I'm tired, hot, leg's ache like hell and my mom taught me never to take candy from a stranger... Watever... I slung my hand around his shoulder and join in the madness.
"Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining, I cant avoid the lightning Oh, where did the blue skies go? And why is it raining so? Its so cold"
My body, mind and soul is already dulled. Dulled by this sensation that fills this park, jumping and singing together with Travis and all the people here in this crowd.
"(Only one more),
Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I cant avoid the lightning Why does it always rain on me? Why does it always rain..."
The crowds starts to applause, I high five the stranger beside me and try hard to stand straight with my aching foot... Okay, for those who are already lost, lets do abit of time travelling...
12 hours earlier...
As I walk pass into Fort Canning entrance with MFR, we are greeted by the sound of loud guitar playing (Okay, okay, besides the leng lui event promoters).
Like Dorothy, we followed the yellow brick road (aka sound of loud guitar). It's a small stage on our left, some band is already jamming infront of a small crowd. Local SG band. First thing we learnt on the event, it's hot. Really hot with the sun blazing on our back as we stand with the crowd to listen to the band rockin. First thing I learn bout this event meanwhile is standing so front while the band is rocking is enuff to produce enuff heart pounding sound that pumps your heart up.
We started to look for the main stage, but the entrance to is still closed with tons of ppl already line up. Figures, still around 2.30 pm onli. With the weather so freakin hot, we decided to get some water supply. We walked around the festival village, alot of leng lui promoters especially at the beer booth. MFR wanted to drink beer but with a small cup costing around SGD10 (x 2.4 = Rm24!), we settle for mineral water. We decided to pass time listening and seeing (leng lui) at the 2nd stage (local band stage) till the main stage is open. Around 3+ pm, the main stage is opens. People started pouring into the main stage... Since it was freaking hot, MFR and me made our way to the back of the stage, where there's shade. Luckily, the stage was at the bottom of a hill slop, hence we even see the stage from the back. After awhile, the guitar starts to play and our opening act of the day...
Dearest Men In White. Can't remember much cept bassist scaling the side of the stage and rocking from 4m of the ground.
Crowned King As, MFR said. Tis bands rocks better than the guys in white. Notable stuff bout tis band is the dude with the big trumpet. Awesome...
Melanie Subono Indo or Fili singer, only female singer that was on da days menu. Tried the gal power gag on the females in the crowd, sadly little response. Tried to get one of the gals to sing with her but no one volunteer (probably no one knows tat song). Lucky got one guy in the crowd help her out, seems to know tat song. Notable stuff is her rock version of "Yesterday" dun really register with my taste, she sung it with such happy note for such depressing song.
We went for a breather here (Around 5.30pm) , to fill our stomach coz we plan to stand infront with the mob when we get back to ensure we get nice spot when Travis performs (Expected performance time is 10.30pm). A SGD12 meal for each of us, for mineral water and kebab. More and more people are pouring from the entrance. Sadly not much people in the 2nd stage.
New Found Glory When we went back and joined the standing mob in front of the stage, a crowd audience was already invited by tis band to rock with em on one song. Incredibly he can even play the guitar with em. If I had any regret that day, it would be coming late for this band. Tis is probably the most rocking band that got the crowd rocking with em. I tell u, it's crazy! There were giant balls, water containers, sunglasses, underwear and even a bra (really!) being toss here and there during their gig. The band members were even playfully enuff that, the lead singer wore the underwear like a cap and the fat bassist wore the sunglasses during performance. Then someone threw a bra onstage, the lead singer threw the bra back into the crowd and feeding of the energy tis band was emitting, the bra was flying here and there in the crowd. *Pure Crack* I tell u. Also, notable stuff, the dude on the electric piano looks like Triple H (LOL). This band really rocking with their rocking songs, but their cover of "Iris" and "Kiss Me" was simply f*ckin awesome rockin and I'm sure the crowd present that day would agree.
Tabik... especially the f*ckin cool fatass on the bass...
Melee Chris (aka MFR) stated Chris (lead singer of tis band) looks too lala with the kwai chai clothes. Never judge a rocker by it's clothes! Rick (aka muscles, the electric guitar dude) even thought of a new national anthem for Singapore.
Singapore New National Anthem
Gotta hand it to em, really rockin...
Levis Runaway Show WTF!? Suddenly a fashion show on Levis Jeans. Anyway odd thing during the performance as stated by one of the announcers, when the male models strip down their t-shirt exposing their body, many females among the crowd scream but some male also scream... Bizzare!
Lostprophets Dun really dig this band rock song. Only can say the lead singer like MFR said "Charismatic". Really got the young crowd frenzied with their performance.
Simple Plan Another young crowd favourite band. Kinda like a few of the more depressing themed songs like "Perfect" and "Welcome to my life".
Dun believe the young lala crowd is frenzied by this band? A pix tell a thousand words, but a video in youtube tells everything...
Travis It was around 10.45pm when it finally reached Travis turn to rock. Alot of the crowd have left since last act, since probably the young ones need to go home and came for the earlier 2 bands. Anyway the crowd had to wait quite some time as Travis crew setup the stage and equipments. Seems Travis wanted his crew to ensure the quality of the sound was up to mark since the earlier bands had some sound problems. Unfortunately some of the crowd got impatient and yelled up some really harsh words. Shame on you guys. This incident however was drown into the cheers as the Travis band members made their way into the stage. Despite some minor issue (like guitar string putus, sound problem, etc), Travis rocked us with a total of around 20 tracks (According to MFR). Some of the songs I really liked was "Sing", "Turn", "Driftwood" and "Writing to reach you".
However these 2 songs really left an impression in me.
Finally, the closing song... It's true when I said MFR traveled so far from Malaysia to Singapore for this Singfest event just to listen to Travis. But for me whom aint' a 100% pure Travis fan, I came just to hear tis particular song...
A fitting way to end Travis act as well as Singfest 2008 Day 1. Only complaint here is it didn't really rain...
So tat's all for Singest 2008 Day 1, I had a f*ckin awesome rockin time and really enjoyed it...
Tis is Rockawan Bakau signing off, May "The Rock" be with ya...
Next entry teaser...
(Note: All pix been ripped from urbanwire.com since I refused to used MFR photos since it would be injustice to use to describe the Singfest event)
Ok, Been trying todo a integration module for our portal with these 2 APIs.
Problem that is giving me a headache: Do you choose a pair of expensive office shoes to wear while wandering outside in the wild?
The more I do this project, the more mismatch I feel on the technology being used. From the first module I done till the current module I'm doing, I been wondering... Do we bend technology to match our requirements, or do we choose technology based on our requirements? Personally I believe in the latter concept. I mean, trying to mine data outta these 2 social networking site API (which was meant for making drag and drop applications in their website) really makes me feel like I'm hunting for rabbits using a fishing rod. And the SSO (Single Sign On) requirement is really cracking my head. How do you make a autologin to these 2 sides, when these 2 sides obviously designed their entry point to their damn API so you can't do so?
On other matters, just receive the call I been waiting for since almost 1 whole week. My daydream continues, for now. More hope, more heartbreak later... I'm hoping more and more... Goin to be a rough crash and burn later... *Sigh*... Why can't I deattach from giving hope into this matter...
The most as you'll ever go Is back where you used to know If grown-ups could laugh this slow Where as you watch the hour snow Years may go by
So hold on to your special friend Here, you'll need something to keep her in : "Now you stay inside this foolish grin ... " Though any day your secrets end Then again Years may go by
You saved your own special friend 'Cuz here you need something to hide her in And you stay inside that foolish grin When everyday now secrets end Oh and then again Years may go by
I walk a lonely road The only one that I have ever known Don't know where it goes But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps and I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah
I'm walking down the line That divides me somewhere in my mind On the border line Of the edge and where I walk alone
Read between the lines What's fucked up and everything's alright Check my vital signs To know I'm still alive and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah Ah-ah, Ah-ah
I walk alone I walk a...
I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one and I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk alone...
Just receive a telephone call just now... 0.01% that finally a significant event is about to happen in my f*cked up life. Dun wanna put too much hope, got the feeling I will burn my fake wings while trying to fly too near to the sun towards heaven, I will then come crashing down to the earth... Like most of the times I put too much hope in something...
Wow... Damn exhausted. Just ran a 100 meter dash awhile ago. Feels like my heart is pumpin blood like crazy right now. To feel yourself running forward with all ur might... With the wind breezing across ur face, ur not cutting through the wind, ur the wind. Every step u take, ur movement and hearts pump blood faster and faster. Your vision becomes blur, your surrounding no longer matters, nothing does... Your lungs starts to fail u, u find it harder and harder to suck in air into ur hungry for oxygen lungs, for every breathe u take. Ur legs starts to ache, Ur head starts to feel giddy. Ur speed starts to slow down. Ur body wan u to stop, but ur brain pumped with adrenaline is shouting "FASTER! FASTER!". Your body just can't take anymore, Mind over matter. Body over mind. You slow down before finally come to a jarring halt. Ur breathe is furious, so is the sharp pain shooting up ur leg's muscle. Your mind is no longer operating. Your body is now in control, and it wants one thing, oxygen.
Frankly speaking, I had long held a strong opinion towards Academic Kiasus especially helicopter parents tat seems so sure that by pushing their children toward excelling academically will guarantee a happy future. Wat I would like to ask these parents are "Why the f*ck are u sending ur children to get education to begin with?" For one bloody stupid cert with the word master/degree/diploma? (Y waste time and effort? Just buy one la...) Or so that ur children is equipped with the proper knowledge to overcome challenges in their f*ckin life? Think I'm nuts? Maybe... But hey, big news, where the dude tat had a royal flush of A's in all his f*ckin subject tat aspires to be Bill Gates? Beats me... I ain't so f*ckin stupid to waste me time finding out wtf happen to him. But I sure know he ain't a Uncle Bill right now... Pushing is okay, Obsession is plain straight wrong. Some ppl are just so f*ckin lazy (Eg: Uncle Kyuzo) to the extend they need someone to push em, but there always a limit to how much we should push em.
If u plan to protect ur child all the way, I say "Ur not going to be always there to protect them for every piece of crap life throws at them". Might as well let them fall now and then. Let em learn, "Whenever you fall, u just get right up". Parents should encourage their child to take up any activities tat they find interesting (Eg: Chess, Football, Manga, Snooker, Smooking, P0rn, etc). Such thing I think is important as it exposes them to all sort of possibilities so when they're old enuff, they have a rough idea of the things they like todo with their life. U definitely dun wan to constraint them to super dull and lame after school activities like tuition, piano classes (Unless they like it), and etc. Common, All Play and No Study makes Ah Boy/Gal a Dumb retard but All Study and No Play makes Ah Boy/Gal a Dull retard.
My imagination dictates I be a f*ckin super coolz father/dad tat would encourage my bloodline with the advice "I already provided u with 2 of the best things a parent can give to their child, freedom to do wtf u wan with ur life and my superb genetic codes that cover leng chainess (Leng chainess lies in the eye of the beholder), superb physical (Round down the tummy) and 180 IQ brain power. Wat I can't impart to u is my wisdom, tat u need to obtain urself in ur own way. May the Force be with u. ". However reality dictates I be a lame ass parent tat is too lazy to be bother with wat my bloodline is doing with their life. So I cleverly dun have any plan to be one....
Yea, yea... just need to b*tch to release STRESS...!!! Been assigned Facebook + Friendster integration module a couple of weeks ago. Rnd tis stuff and making utilities package to access data from these two sides. Problem is their API ain't meant for 3rd party like us to abuse. Simple example is we need the user's friend mail coz our application need to spam em. Unfortunately, or rather lucky for these social networking users, the brains behind these API are smart enuff not to exposed the emails field. My observation is that these API is more meant for those application that can be drag and drop inside ur profile rather a 3rd party that pool data from them to do crap (That's us, bravo, bravo...). Anyway 4 new collegues today, 3 in our team. Since not enuff space de our table, had to move 2 of them to other group table. Sort of missed my old cubicle compared to this open table seating. Common, with a ctv practically behind my back, I'm screwed. Can't do many illegal stuff while work. Sienz jor lor...
Meanwhile my attempts to Prison Break meanwhile is in the loop. Been one messy procedure. HR informed me my contract is a 1 year contractual one. I was under the impression contractual means, I got a job for 1 year. After 1 year, they may or maybe not renew my contract. I mean apart of that fact, it never occured to me, I would lose my common rights as a normal employee like resigning. Never thought contractual means "BOND". If I knew, I would done wat I done to the Sunway offer. Reject it on the spot. Never like the concept of "BOND", Not that tis current company is not good but maybe cause Bond sounds like Bondage. Now waiting HR to discuss with Big Boss on my contract. Have a very bad feeling bout this crap. Ironic part is I ain't even confirmed. Means no crap like allowance, pocket money, Mercedes Benz...
So lesson learned, Contractual = Bond. These thing exists for a good reason. I mean employer need to protect themselves. Common... We live in the era of capitalism, we're investments in the eye of our employers. Truth be told, I just prefer to stay in a company because I love it there rather than stay there because my contract says so.

Hello darkness, my old friend, Ive come to talk with you again, Because a vision softly creeping, Left its seeds while I was sleeping, And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone, neath the halo of a street lamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of A neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more. People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening, People writing songs that voices never share And no one deared Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools said i,you do not know Silence like a cancer grows. Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you. But my words like silent raindrops fell, And echoed In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed To the neon God they made. And the sign flashed out its warning, In the words that it was forming. And the signs said, the words of the prophets Are written on the subway walls And tenement halls. And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
I'm so tired I haven't slept a wink I'm so tired My mind is on the blink I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink No, no, no
I'm so tired I don't know what to do I'm so tired My mind is set on you I wonder should I call you But I know what you would do

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us It's time to make our move, I'm shakin off the rust I've got my heart set on anywhere but here I'm staring down myself, counting up the years Steady hands, just take the wheel... And every glance is killing me Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead
Stop and stare I think I'm moving but I go nowhere Yeah I know that everyone gets scared But I've become what I can't be, oh Stop and stare You start to wonder why you're 'here' not there And you'd give anything to get what's fair But fair ain't what you really need Oh, can u see what I see
They're tryin to come back, all my senses push Un-tie the weight bags, I never thought I could... Steady feet, don't fail me now Gonna run till you can't walk But something pulls my focus out And I'm standing down...
Stop and stare I think I'm moving but I go nowhere Yeah I know that everyone gets scared But I've become what I can't be, oh Stop and stare You start to wonder why you're here not there And you'd give anything to get what's fair But fair ain't what you really need Oh, you don't need
What u need, what u need...
Stop and stare I think I'm moving but I go nowhere Yeah I know that everyone gets scared But I've become what I can't be Oh, do u see what I see...
