me:"Yes, mr yeong speaking, you are?"
girl OTOS:"i'm calling from xxxx company, would like to know if your available at 11am tomorrow morning?"
me:"No, i have an appointment at 10am tomorrow morning."
girl OTOS:"So can you make it at 11am?"
me(a bit frust already):"No, i can't make it at 11am as my previous appointment is at 10am, i don't think my appointment will finish so fast."
girl OTOS:"oh, okay, thank you. doop!"

in my head i was like. har?! how come the girl that call to make an appointment sounds and reacted so blurly one..lmao. oh well, till they call me again then i shall know their real motive..hahahahaha

4th of OCT

self check....

been staying off the normal calories and taking the himalaya healthcare detox package which comprise of gokshura, neem and triphala. Each of these bottle is to be consumer in different time of the day, each capsule each. So far the detox process is not much of a hassle, just that i need to remember to drink at least 8 cups of water a day, stay way from dairy products, drinks with caffeine, plus i need to exercise more.

as a result, so far i've lost 2kg in 5-6 days time. will keep up with the momentum as i slim down while i look for a job. hopefully when i start my new job, i have a fitter and healthier body.

drink more water, that's one thing that i have been reminding myself a lot. go go go

OCT - weight losing month...

darn, i'm @ 82kg after my trip back from Taman Negara. you've been lazy and didn't go much is it? Neh, my sweating my guts out n working like a real donkey @ Taman Negara. But substantially, i'm eating up as much as well as working out does whipped up a good appetite.

Therefore i will be going on a workout, weight losing for the month of Oct. Low fat, low carb, and protein food. Got to wake up for that early job and some basketball while i'm at it. Need to lose the belly as well... Darn, it needs to go...will do a daily update on my progress to act as an little journal for me...

all the best ya! *self reminder

stay off the junk food for starters....sigh

a thin line between a perfect day and a screwed one...

we do usually start off the day being positive and trying to end a day with what's left from the morning. hence the thin line of erupting easier sometimes due to small little mistake/misunderstanding/stupidity of control over you emotions and let it take a rip over you living body. Ending the day at a sour note isn't much of what most people would want. I did sort of just did one for today. Since long i've not felt so down, well, due to low self esteem problem that i'm facing since i'm jobless and searching for a job, starting to get a little desperate. i read the emotions of the opposite party wrongly, didn't handle it properly and whoosh, it flew over my head and i end up writing this pickle tasting post and feel sorry for myself and those i've hurt. Darn. i hate myself now....

gosh, what a way to end a day....

buzzer beater <<零秒出手>> review

Buzzer beater, in a comic and anime. Just recently the named was used for a short film series, 11 episodes that portraits a guy with a dream of being the best professional basketball player and a girl with the dream of being a outstanding violinist. A pretty short and simple series with a few twist around love, fate and achieving your dreams. But the sub is in Chinese, sorry for those who can't read it, maybe later it will come up with a English sub for it. ;)

for those who want to find the BT seed. try the below link

http://www.netme.cc/airways/thread-489517-1-1.html

i rate it a 8.5 for a short n simple series, right to the point and made me chase it even it is just a few episodes. maybe i loved basketball, so it wasn't that bad for me. :)

the path of life....

Been in the jungle for two month before coming back to search for a perm job. well, things aren't going as well as i think it would, maybe i am just desperate for something right to just pop up in front of me when i wanted it to. but well, life is just so miraculous that things don't really work out like that. so i shall have my patients light on and wait for it, but before anything happens, tightening the belt of spending would be the key to success to weathered through this storm of mine.

a lot of ppl might have been asking, what the hell is this two legged donkey running around in the jungle for two months for? i was with a production filming a reality show in the jungles of Pahang. It was a fun filled experience for me to work closely with professionals in the filming industry that has tons of experience. Animals handlers that practically can have their hands on any animal/insects that they can find.

time really flies and now thinking of where next. :)

Goodbye Y.A - R.I.P

"Acclaimed Malaysian film and advertising director Yasmin Ahmad has passed away at 11:52pm Saturday night at the age of 51, after collapsing from a stroke at a media presentation the day before. She leaves behind a legacy of film that captures the modern multicultural spirit of Malaysia, winning international festival awards and local hearts while at the mercy of conservative censors."

taken from http://www.metafilter.com/83579/Yasmin-Ahmad-1958-2009

althought i've not a favourite fan of hers, but i do watch a few movie and know about the history of a great woman that inspired a lot of talented talents in Malaysia to test and push their limit in this struggling industry where sensitivities are everywhere from every aspect of our lives.

Thank you for what you've done for Malaysia and for the younger generation. :)

RIP and condolences to the family of Yasmin Ahmad. She is a great lost to us as well and to Malaysia.

a mist infront of me...

well, i am not sure if it is a mist or a bloody haze, clouded as can be. darn...get me out of here plz!

rich n powerful vs justice

well, this is pretty interesting topic while i was having breakfast one day with my sis, she mentioned about what will you choose to describe the current society today. well, my take to this would be, the rich and powerful does make the work a little chaotic as it is today as we see it. From what i see there are a lot of losers in our community today, to be cunning, to be merciless and to be worthless human being that would do anything to achieve their goals, turning them rich and powerful...but is there justice in this world that would stand in their way which i always would think that what comes around goes around. Just that we don't really see it as they come swinging by the door and thus continuing on doing what they do best.

is it fung shui? or it is just revenge of life that comes knocking on your door? sometimes some people just lost the conscious to just pursue that path for their life...i wonder...

time to knock out for the day...will continue to ponder further in the mystery of my life as i am wondering off again to search for my directions again. wow wee. this is gonna be more fun than last time around. wish me luck

what the f*ck is wrong...

well, things started off pretty good in my new environment in my work, i'm not sure if it's me or what, why the catastrophe always comes near where i feel comfortable. i love my current job, i am enjoying the parts and bits of what i am doing, but why does someone else in the same boat have to rock it and make turbulence. what the f*ck is wrong with these ppl. Don't they have grace, don't they have a brain, don't they have the urgency of profesionality, don't they have courtesy so say sorry when they are wrong.

what they have are the blood stain ass of pride and mannes ego that is so big that clouds their mind and judgement. i always thought that woman take a little more effort to comfort and please, but then only i figure out, ass wiping men are worst, they are like babies with their napies and don't even know what is the meaning of self esteem, to chase after the life that dreams can only come true if they work harder, but no, they decided to push pen around rather than figure out how it works. Never in their lives that they thought that with a little more effort, just a little more, they can achieve more than the average push cart fella stacking trolley in the mall. Maybe those ppl can do better in their job than those of my known crowd. Go cry to your mommy and daddy, work is cruel, life is cruel, survival of the fittest wins and i intend to win, i am no loser in life and i don't plan it to be so. Don't make me lift my finger as i don't intend to. But don't make me, once i do, there will be no more honeymoon for you, ever....i promise...

New stuff..

Well, since i changed my job, i noticed that i've been buying a lot of stuff. To show you how much have been spend..i decided to make a list..at least i can get a hold of it.

1. Case Logic backpack
2. Adidas Basketball shoes
3. Nokia E71
4. WD 640Gig mybook

Well, other than i would to declare i'm debt free. it took some effort, but i've managed to clear off all my credit card outstanding in 2 banks and 4 cards which amount to a 5 digit total...so for now, i can say i'm feeling really good. :)

time to work harder n save up money for you know what. muahahahahahaaha....





a new car lar...*joking..i still love my kelisa a lot

2 weeks into my new job

well, this is the question most people would ask when you jump over to a new company, how's your job?

All i could say is that i got to hit the ground running on the first day. Attended my first sales meeting aat 10am when i stepped into my new office. Did not have the luxury of even build up the relationship with my chair, i had to have fun in the meeting room. After sales meeting, two different principle came n has their product briefing, looking that i did not have my laptop as it has not been delivered, it fit the day's schedule nicely.

Then on the 2nd day, my boss is urging me to call my clients that is on the list that he gave me. But i did not manage to as i did not have the confident yet to setup any appointment for such meet up yet. So i dig into those product sheets and started to do my reading. That went on for a few days where i picked up my bread and butter.

With my laptop coming along later on, which is a Dell studio 14.1" lappie, well this little bugger is packed with performance as it comes with a free upgrade to 3 gig of RAM. Was thinking of my boss would give me a Dell mini, that din happen..muahahahaha. They got me a black unit, which they lied saying mine is going to be a pink one, i am okay with pink actually, a bit macho also right having a pink lappie..lmao. (i lied, phew it is black)

2nd week was a packed schedule due to the vendor of the product (Imperva)that i am incharge with, came down from SG to provide Technical Training and Sales training. Alvin is APEC sales director, which me and Sam has made plans for this visit for 3 days to visit. Well, anyone of you guys would have guess what i have been doing then. Despide all the tiring trip driving around in KL and PJ, i had a great time learning and sharing with Alvin with the product, his experience and his teaching.

2 weeks has passed and i'm more clear of my focus on the job. I might use another week to pick up the other product that i'm incharge with. Soon, i'll be out hunting.

Need loads of leads, will come cold calling all of ya. :p

what i got during valentines...

well, you have guessed it right, the Braun Buffel Leather Wallet which cost more than i could ask for. Thank you babe for this wonderful gift, i am using it right now, although my gift does not cost as much, but it is from the bottom of my heart. And sorry for bursting you bubble of surprising me and brought me to the counter and chose it.

Loving you even more everyday! muaks.

now it's complete

well, some of you might know that i bought a set of 5.1 THX surround PC speakers a year back, it's a logitech z-680 (full review here). Well, what bugs me the most is that it comes with 5 satellite speakers, front left and right, back left and right and a center speaker. A big arse sub woofer that can blow ur house down and a control pod, that sits nicely on the floor as a little table top.



Like all 5.1 speaker set, the two back left and right speakers should be at the back, as they are suppose to be, that's why ever since i've purchased this set of speakers (got it 2nd hand from a lyn member @ RM650) i have been searching high and low for a stand. And finally, before christmas, a seller pops up wanting to sell his ikea gaje speaker stand which is highly sources in the market by some amateur users. Well, the seller has 2 pairs, and i only needed a pair, in the process of getting the deal i asked to take both n then worry about the left over pair later, which it didn't took me long to get a seller for it, my fren Johnny. :)

Happy as could be, i tried it out the instance i got my hand on it, trying to fit my rear speakers onto the stand, due to the reason that the way that it is holding the speaker uses velcro's, but the previous user has already used up the velcro, leaving me thinking of a way to afix my speaker onto the stand as the bottom of the speaker is a litte rounded bulged. And with the 3m velcro that i had on me didn't really work as i thought it would. A slight earthquake will tumble my speakers falling 2 feet to the ground, something that i can't risk. (the pic below is showing half the actual high)



As i was looking into material that i could afford n save me time and fuss to get it down with, i came up with using arcylic.

Woke up early one saturday morning and made my way to Jalan Pasar to this famouse acrylic shop where all lyn members recommended. Sorry that i din take a pic of the shop cause it was a pretty hot morning and i wish to go in fast and run the hell out of there in a jifty. Ordered a 200mm*100cm*10mm acrylic. Took them 10 min to get it cut it and off i go happily.

After that, i went back to my office the following after measuring the holes that i need to drill. A lesson that i learn drilling acrylic is, slow and steady, don't rush on it, cause it will break if too much pressure is put upon it. And this is the modification that i have done with some added bolt and nuts.





and now it's complete :)

If I Were A Girl (Beyonce Parody)

scoop this off my news feed...lmao...pretty good. listen to the lyrics.



Original from Beyonce - If i were a boy

Movie - Rockin Rolla

Watched this movie a few weeks ago, sorry for the late post, well i guess this movie is not going to make it to the big screen in Malaysia, due to the amount of things that can be censored according to Malaysia's censorship board, therefore, try to download it from you know where, else, you could get it from me.

The movie is about the family of mobs which trick each other, using way to get money, a family affair problem and a hidden spy among them. What i fancy about this movie was there's a guided voice, not sure whats that called, it narrates the plot as it goes on. At least the representation of it was pretty okay. Quite a strong cast and hell a lot of swearing.

mike's rating of 7.8/10. worth watching.

more info n full synopsis click here


And here is the trailer of it. enjoy!

In these trying times...

Well, as the world in walking into recession day by day, news of fellow friends or friends of colleagues falls victim to the slowdown that is being felt in every inch of the face of the earth, disregard those that are already in gloomy days where living for another day would be a question in their lives.

Let's all work harder in these trying time, some has received notification letters of in event of low jobs in hand, he/she will be deemed to salary cut or say bye bye...well, that's not all good news, or bad, that's why, let's all work our way out of this.

ganbade!

some laughs..

Valentines day...

a day of expensive flower and chocolate, a day where the restaurant will only serve only one special dish, the valentines special...

well, how did this day become so commercialize? This is suppose to be a day where love fills up the air, and relaxed and be happy with, not a day where it burns a pocket in your wallet and your other half have to work double working hours just to pay for that meal that meant so much. are we spoiling the mood of this special day or commercially they are cannibalizing on the advantage of it. sigh.

well, my way of celebrating would be normal as usual, not really celebrating, we exchange gifts, now i have to think about sorting out the dinner. this is gonna be a challenge. what shall i cook? well, until now, i have no idea. all comments welcome on this if you read this in time to save me that is.

will update when the day comes.muahahahaha..i'm screwed

Year 2009 and the beginning

Year 2009, first post

hehehe. it's been a hectic new year and a new year has come rushing into everyone's mind that this will be a struggling year for everyone as the economy of the world start to crumple as the existing financial and production industry fall into the gravel. A lot of ppl has lose their job and are now thinking what to do next and what will be the driving force for them in life to put simple meal onto their table at home. Well, grieve as it can be, but for me, i would always believe that everything is destined to happen sooner of later, don't grieve but to stand up against it and use all your might to overcome the negativity that looms over us at this testing times.

Beggers can't be chosers, i always believe in that phrase, if you are already down at the bottom of the gravel and unable to even make much moves or choices, but why still you are holding up your priceless pride and manly ego, and not bow down to accept the fact that to get your hands dirty is the only way to go on, rather than just sit there, looking at the ceiling wishing to the heaven for hope and prosperity? In this tough testing time, we have to change our way of life, for the better, for the better you and the build a future you. i know am changing as we speak, but are you...i wonder...
