so that's all for the 2 days reservist. they demonstrated some fancy maneuvers, just for our info of things not to do when on the road/off-roads. heh. but it was fun.

somehow we managed to squeeze some time for bowling and billiard in between lessons.

we get to drive a land rover today.

dear kairin.

i wanted to write to you about the feelings you're going through, but we both know that its a waste of time and energy. i'm surprised you're still mopping about it till now. i think the clarity of the matter is not getting to you because you still choose to be shrouded with your own veil.

enough ought to be enough.

kind regards.

have you seen this yet?

my train of reasoning will be as follows. ( + )

so will be going to police driving school for my 2 days reservist next month. sounds like fun. will be cam whoring as much as i can.

:-P

on the project front, the people at mda gave some advice on what i want to do, and received a call with an acra representitive yesterday morning after the email exchange we had last friday. she's very nice and am very thankful for her explanations. ultimately i have to decide how i want to proceed. i have to plan out properly this time.

on another hand, how many real people actually have the time for web 2.0? stuffs like facebook, del.icio.us, myspace and so on so forth.

how do you make a "desire" out of nothing?
how do you convert that "desire" to a "need"?

well after years of not carrying a real digital camera, i succumbed to a new one.

Cuz I love the way you say good morning.
And you take me the way I am.

guess i didn't take you for who you are...

from one of the cds a while back. the ipod seems to be picking this song quite a few times lately. guess it seems to know me...

after the bouncing balls version, this is the one that comes close.

while adding the scriptaculous engine into a site that i'm trying to work on at the moment, discovered that it causes ie6 to crash. which is very annoying. thankfully, someone posted some info on what's causing the crash. the root of the problem caused by how ie6 handles the creation of those dynamic elements. bad ie6.

on other news. if i'm given a unique ability, i'd like to have that heroes ability where you can say something and people will follow? i mean, karma aside, i'd like them to take their pill and choke on it next time. coming to my office shouting that they're old and sick and needed to eat pills and all that. you want to drop dead in my office? please go ahead. old man. next time, don't leave your house. since your daughter is some big shot lawyer, ask her to take care of you since she can afford it! amazing, these are the people who take the trouble to get free medicines when they can jolly well afford it. i thought those things are meant for the needy?

oh... this heroes wiki is so fun to read!

this afternoon at headquarters. (aiyah... my eyes keep shutting at the wrong times... why is it so hard to keep my eyes open one...)

getting to know someone. who likes cute stuffs. heh.



well the nokia e51 don't really have the best night scene camera. but then again, i got the e51 not for its camera's abilities (or lack thereof).



ordered this via vpost on sunday night, and the friendly postman delivered it this morning. woot!!!



last but not least. this software is "adobe photoshop + illustrator + indesign + fireworks + flash" all rolled into one! and its really spiffy! just conceptualizing a page spread took me less than a minute. something i'd normally take half an hour with adobe cs3. just obtained xara extreme pro this morning too, but i've yet to actually play around with its features, but i'd think its a great alternative. or at least for the features i'd think i'd use very often.

ok. so that wraps up my life's update for the past month or two. hrmmm... i guess i've been pretty boring lately. life is mundane. 3 weeks into my 12 month plan.

ganbatte~!!!

actually i'm quite proud of it. hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

but, the fact that it uses so much of memory resource... i'm not sure if that's a good thing. especially if compared to firefox which uses 1/4 of that amount of resource.



and to verify my suspicion, i fired up ie7, safari, and firefox. loaded up all the same pages. typical user kind of websites. youtube, search portal, google, online forum, hardwarezone, facebook etc, and the results are pretty much self explanatory.



so why should i make safari my default browser?

well i don't think i would. it doesn't offer me the ease of use like firefox. but when it comes to online banking, i have to use ie7 for dbs/posb, since firefox and safari can't seem to open dbs/posb online banking page. (firefox can't open dbs/posb, uob, fairpriceplus so i don't use it for internet banking) but at least safari opens up ntuc's fairpriceplus online banking (since ie7 hangs whenever i try it). well at least that's the short term solution.

crap. why can't everyone just make it easier for us to access websites from any browser in the first place.

( + ) and the real reason why i decided to get myself a psp slim over the weekend, was to be able to play patapon!

on the other hand, now that i'm on 8 days hospitalization leave, i decided to grow a goatee. mmm... not sure if the look suits me... so i've not shaved for the past few days, and that's the outcome on the left.

ended up getting for myself a shure SCL2 in-ear, earphones and a zen stone plus (with speaker, this one's for running). since choon and i braved the traffic to the IT show, even though his 17" macbook pro was out of stock at suntec, i wasn't gonna go empty handed. i have to admit, the SCL2 has redefined how i listen to my ipod. i'm the sort of guy who can't tell the difference when it comes to sound quality, but i can definitely tell that the music coming out from the SCL2 were so much clearer and cleaner. and i don't even have to turn up the volume on my ipod! although i have to get used to how i have to wear the earphones.

rediscovering catatonia.

( + ) and it was raining so heavily yesterday. sent choon off to get his coach at goldenmile. was glad to hear from him when he reached home in kl.



met the boy for dinner at pasir panjang for some seafood after fetching him from work. heh. someone's a team leader now.

:-)

attempt to get my reflection. choon was trying his best to foil my plan.

anyhow. he's back in sg and staying over for a few days. while we hunt for his macbook pro 17". turns out stock ran out in the IT show (though he could have gotten it if he did not go and vote on saturday.)



drove around from one apple reseller to another. and finally. the last macbook pro was found at harbourfront's apple reseller. given the 4gb upgrade at no cost + some other small freebies. choon's one happy boy after that.

i on the other hand have cramped legs cos of the darn traffic. goodness... i hate driving to town on weekends.

the past few days, conversations were filled with malaysian politics... not social commentary. but rather, the youtubes we've seen.

oh by the way, 10,000 BC (the movie currently showing) reminds me so much of my Patapons on the psp.

You are a light and humorous person. No one can help but to smile to your wit. Now if only the improbability drive would stop turning you into weird stuff.

on the other hand... loved the spectators shouting along with the music!

ok.

when was the last time you've seen a malay tv show that's actually entertaining?

i'm hooked to this. the link above leads to most episodes of the series so that's not too bad. made in malaysia with english subs, 25 episodes in all.



sweetest episode so far.

and yeah it stars sharifah amani, or that girl from the film "sepet" amongst other notable malay actors/actresses.
