Catching the local happening

While i was in KL...i have been seeing some good things leading to the greatest of a promising nation under the stewardship of Badawi.

Despite being a "Singaporean" (a rather ingate one haha) and always regard Malaysia as one of our nemesis in economy challenges. I have to say, there have done it again with the Badawi driving "BIOMALAYISA" initiative with Malaysian Biotechnology Corporation fronting all the effort.

Malayisa is full of natural resources likes palm oil and agricultures, coupled with cheap labour and innovatives natural resouces mining, the Malaysian could have given Singapore some sweat work as well.

MM has been bragging top $$ to stamp corruption while Badawi have been driving his corruption initiatives thru virtues of honesty. Thus...we came to a crossroad junction on who is right and wrong. I wonder what is the general view on this as well?

Traffic Police kena knocked ~ poor sob

Re-edit v1.1

Woahh...the traffic police had somehow knocked the van upside down during a collision.

This could be interesting picture indeed. Yes, the Traffic police department had been doing themselves badly by acquiring portable camera which could allow them to hide behind foliages and structures to beam vehicles speeding at low speed limit road. Which is ridculous...by any measurement.

Anyway, i too was hoping a rampant car knock these mutherfuckers off from their hiding places....{evil grin} hiak hiak

Let's pray the van driver do not get crucified ...poor fellow.

Just landed....but will be taking off soon

Just touched down from the Airport with no food...darn hungry. Think back to this trip...

I took off from the partner's office at 4pm and was send to the KL Central station by the Partner Technical Manager, Ah Tan. He was a good fellow and i sure soon we will have great time together as friend. Coincidently their Channel Business Manager, K T Chew has been hitting rather well with me. We both went to have dinner last night and was caught by the Best Denki's Sharp LCD TV display lot. Then Mr Chew went on to buaya the sale gal and asked for her cell number. Her name was Greenly..kaka..Anyway she was quite a short gal with a some cute feature.

The recent spates of travelling were partly driven by me to train all the regional partner's engineers to gain more product and solution knowledge. By imparting skills to partner's engineers, i in facts in the process of building the internal "thinking" and capability of the partners. So once they had strenghtened their position, they will forge ahead with greater steam. But its a long term knowledge investment.
I hope it pay off...

Of course, i am able to clock both my flight mileage and my MBOs....i wan $$ $$ !!

Guessed, i do not have to unpack my bag as i will be needing the same bag for Monday and lately i have been missing some holiday. But hopefully, i will be revitalised myself for next week as well.

Flying to Jakarta

Darn...just got the marching order to fly to Jakarta as Indonesian partner
unable to resolve some teething issues.

India redefine Newton's law of gravity and Nature

This is one of the funniest joke i found lately.

Bollywood movie is one of the most "amplified" drama and action showcase. I dun watch them anyway, but I think the indian had too much imagination and fantasy sometimes.

That's nice if they expend their energies in their Bollywood production. But if they were to focus on world domination. That's where i am shitting myself out.

India Army is ranked world top 4 armies. U got to respect tat, i saw the India displaying their arsenal while i was watching their "Independence day" while i was in Hyderbad, Feb time. I even visited their Space and Rocket research centre in Bangalore.

Dun play their kuku jiao..ok.

Recently Isaac Newton, the father of physics, made a visit to Earth to watch a movie. He watched a few Tamil movies and emerged with his head in a spin. Here's why.
These were the actions he saw Vijayakanth (popular Tamil actor) involved in: -
Vijayakanth has a brain tumour which, according to the doctors, can't be cured and his death is imminent. In one of the fights, our great Vijayakanth is shot in the head.

To everybody's surprise, the bullet passes through his ears taking away the tumour along with it and he is cured. Long live Vijayakanth!

Vijayakanth is confronted with three gangsters. He has a gun but unfortunately only one bullet. Guess, what he does? He throws a knife at the gangster standing in the centre and shoots at the knife.

The knife cuts the bullet into two pieces, killing both the gangsters flanking the one in the centre, while the knife kills the middle one.

Vijayakanth is chased by a gangster. Vijayakanth has a revolver but he has no bullets in it. Guess, what he does? No, you won't succeed with your remotest imagination.
As soon as the gangster shoots, Vijayakanth opens the bullet compartment of his revolver and catches the bullet. Then, he closes the bullet compartment and fires his gun ... and the gangster dies.

This was too much for Newton to take and he was completely shaken and he decided to go back. But he stayed around to watch another movie, thinking that at least it will follow his theory of physics. The whole movie goes on fine and Newton is happy that all in the world hasn't changed.

Oops! Not so fast. The climax finally arrives. Vijayakanth gets to know that the villain is on the other side of a very high wall. It's so high that Vijayakanth can't jump even if he tries one of those superman techniques our heroes normally use.

He desperately wants to kill the villain. Vijayakanth pulls out two guns from his pocket. He throws one gun in the air and when the gun reaches the height of the wall, he shoots at the trigger of the first gun in the air with his second gun. Now the first gun fires off and the villain is dead. Newton faints!

Malaysian and Singaporean both are the same clowns haha

Dun flame me...

Once we were brother now we were neighbour. I found this on the web..maybe you might wanna pop by to the author's blog

Malaysians Vs Singaporeans

A tongue-in-cheek comparison by blogger Eddie G.

It's not as if you hadn't noticed, but Malaysians and Singaporeans do have quite a bit in common. However, if you do pay attention, you might notice some distinguishing traits that might spell the difference between a true blue Malaysian and a die-hard Singaporean. These are guidelines. No one has to follow them, but generally they do.

AT A BUFFET
Malaysian: Eats until he throws up
Singaporean: Eats until he throws up, and then eats some more

LAW & ORDER
Malaysian: Knows his laws, disobeys them and that's fine
Singaporean: Knows his laws, disobeys them and gets fined

ECONOMY
Malaysian: Trade Union owned by rich, pretentious bast--ds who don't know sh-t about the struggles of the working class
Singaporean: Trade Union owned by the government

MANNERS
Malaysian: Cuts a queue, feels guilty, tries to pretend nothing happened
Singaporean: Cuts a queue, feels guilty, tries to justify his motive ("Actually hor, you know ah, I've been here already for very long, one!")

CUSTOMS
Malaysian: Attempts to smuggle drugs and tobacco into Singapore
Singaporean: Attempts to smuggle chewing gum into Singapore

LEADERSHIP
Malaysian: Former Prime Minister retires and goes off to enjoy life while calling the shots from behind the scene
Singaporean: Former Prime Minister retires... oh wait, no he doesn't.

INFRASTRUCTURE
Malaysian: Builds Twin Towers to symbolise what Malaysia is all about
Singaporean: Builds Twin Metal-Spiked Balls for the same purpose

CORRUPTION
Singaporean: Culprit begs policeman for leniency
Malaysian: Policeman begs culprit for bribes

POLITICS
Malaysian: Believes in a one-phantom-one-vote policy
Singaporean: Lee Kuan Yew votes on behalf of the country

CENSORSHIP
Singaporean: Allows adult films to be screened so long as patrons are of age and film possesses a certain aesthetic value
Malaysian: Buy the VCD lah!

PATRIOTISM
Malaysian: Sings Malaysian National Anthem in Bahasa Malaysia
Singaporean: Sings Singaporean National Anthem in Bahasa Malaysia ()

Up and down of life~

Looks like Chelsea is making its own history by edging closer to its 1st Premier League champion for the 50 yrs long. I would said they did very consistent for this competition, only the Gunner were to blame themselves for losing the steam halfway when they started stuttering after making a record 49 games unbeaten.

On the wrong end of the league, Liverpool's Benitez must have been fuming furiously as their 4th placing target placing seemed to be drifting away from him. A little browse on the BBC 606 talk, forummers were crying for selling Stevie G as well. Many claims that he was playing to his brute strenght and lack the ball touches like Luis Garcia who could distribute the ball upfront.

Well...i guessed they were probably right as Luis Garcia was missing the game with a thigh injury. Thus i would lament that Liverpool should be shooting themselves for edging further from their objective with lack of committment and underachieving.

Slow hot Saturday ~~ ~~

Woke up pretty steam today as i slept rather late yesterday due to some issues with some work. Bored..manz have to work the issues with US side.

Anyway..woke up and ran to the market to take some breakfast and i cannot go without a breakfast in the morning. I can skip lunch..but not breakfast.

Ran to Sim Lim and met up Eddy Goh and Regine and along with Robin. Eddy brought a shiny new LCD monitor for his sister as birthday while Regine brought a portable hard disk enclosure. Robin the main man of the day brought a new Panasonic DMC FZ5 digital camera at one of the Electronic shop i knew. Without much haste, Robin paid up and we met up with May Wong.

That remind me of my existing old trusty digital camera. A Canon S10 whose is a 2Mbpx camera is considered pretty ancient these days. But when the day to call for it to perform, the S10 does pretty well, though. The battery also discharge pretty fast thus i could not use it for many shots as i had 348Mb IBM Microdrive for mass storage.

Anyway, you dun believe it that three of us watch "Steamboy" the anime at TCC. It was pretty torturing experience for me as i already watch it twice. Anyway, Steamboy is one of the huge anime production that reputed to cost 8 Billion Yen by Director Katsuhiro Ôtomo who also gave you AKIRA in 1988. Anyway, great animation but weak character development really can't challenge past anime production, and it was reported that it's box office performance in Japan was very weak.

Anyway, tomorrow have to wake up early to pack my luggage for Penang and KL trip.

Hee....doing own blog's appraisal

While running thru my blog's comments.

I so happy that fellow bloggers likes Elaine, Boggiepop, Darling and Rawbean have airbrushing their thoughts and comments on regular basis. oh dear..:p

hee..basically my blog is not regulated, u can blah blah anything. I not really going to stop anyone anway. By far, i noticed all of of u had began firing your verbal cylinders already..hee..i so happy. keep punching the keyboard folks!! As i wont be in town next week. I hope people will sneak in for my blog update in Penang and KL...

Dun clear your web browser cache yet...Okie?

My shoe history

hmm..suddenly this Adidas ROM thingy became a topic of itself.
haha :D so funny.

Actually the greatest reason why i wanna buy this shoe was because when i was in Secondary 4 i liked this Adidas ROM (the design on the sole was different then) but due to limited pocket $$. I could not afford it. So shelved the idea ....slowly the model faded away from my memory.

Throughout my shoe collection, i had brought some real classic shoes. Starting from my Nike Cross Trainer (1st generation) which i brought during my Polytechnic days. It was my favorite Nike shoe that i had wore so far. In 93, i got a pair Doc Martin shoe before they were basic shoe wear for singaporean hahaha then i went off to fell in love with Timberland's Boat shoe (Nubuck leather) which i owned both the low heel and high heel. Till date this shoes still live on with proper maintenance. Converse's canvas shoe also top my list with me having both high and low off-white canvas shoe. Both close to 6 yrs old minimum and still going strong.

While started to watch LDs and DVDs during the early DVD days, i was a regular borrower of digital media from the nearby DVD rental near Holland Village. Then i discovered RED WING shoe while watching "One flew over the cuckoo nest" by Jack Nicholson which won him an Oscar for best performer. I brought a Brown Red Wing shoe which costed me SG$298 buck from Queenways shopping centre. Till then i practically trekked this shoe around the world and to date the shoe still good great, because the shoe itself was "waxed" using Mink Oil to preserve it textures and moisture. Red Wing shoe is very comfortable and durable. I heard they even replace the shoe under sole for $70 at Red Wing's shoe. Timberland outlet did such maintenance as well when i handed my two pairs of Boat shoes for servicing.

I guessed this is so much for shoe talk at the moment...

Hee..

Just when you woke up...thinking about the Adidas ROM

Hahaha...this sounds crazy. But for some strange reason, my mind tell me to get that pair of shoe. Hee..Fashion evolve over and over again and what "outdated" in the past can be "fashionable" in the present or future. Thus many great designers were all in their late 40s. Because these people carried a great sense of fashion war chest over the years.

Saw the Levi's latest outfit. The Square fit. What is it? Basically it a low waist fully straight cut with boot bottom jean. I love straight-cut pants as i got straight hip (frontal looking) straight down. I used to own at least 6 pairs of Levi's 505 of various seasons. I got 2 classic which i gave one away to a close lady friend. And couple of 505s are now very wore out which gave them a very "carpentry" look.

A nice pair of Adidas' ROM (white tennis foot wear) should look nice with it. Haha coupled with a tennis wrist band and unshaven look...there you got a Bjorn Borg's 60s look. http://www.bjornborg.20m.com/pictures.htm

Stylo right? :p

To date, i have at least 16 pairs of Levi's jean of various fits and color, err the number could be more actually.

:D

Rawbean, the Y4K by Hybrid sounds ok lah. Somehow i got a feeling that the tracks used do not seemed to gel well. Sighz...too bad Steve Healey you do not get my vote for these effort.

Root Canal all done up

Good thing that my today dental appointment did not have to pay any $$ as i already paid for the last visit. I guessed as long as u dun need to pay. Its a good thing.

hee...thank Darling, Min Sun yung and Elaine for wishing me luck at the dental. Arigato...

Today kena "suaned" by my customer who is expecting a POC with our products. But strangely the SUN V440's LVD interface seemed to have issue detecting the tape library. After i went thru the web by googling for queries, i realised that its scsi port did had some issues with some external devices. Anyway, i managed to get 70% POC all done up and hopefully my partner can pick up the tab.

Got home pretty late...now wanna zzzZZZzzzZZZzz

A brand new day with a new modal tooth

After losing close to SG$1200 for a root canal surgery on my right modal..i about to head off to my third surgery later.

Sighz..i not sure i am expected to pay again.. sob sob

Anyway, have been a pleasure knowing Darling and practically we were swamping in each others blog side.. so much for blogging.

I still thinking about the Adidas ROM shoe, the cute white little tennic shoe. Adidas ROM was very famous when i was in Secondary 3-4. Everyone was likes..u gotta have this Adidas shoe in those days. After 20 years apart, the re-release of the shoe bring sweet memories of those stupid days. Playing "plastic ball" after class, playing with chemical powder during chemistry class...blah blah..usually i very bad with chemistry due to class influences. Nobody actually studied them..get what i mean? But i made major strides when i was in Sec 5 taking my O level. My chemistry improved tremendously. I used to struggled with 50s...and suddenly i was scoring 80 marks!!!

Chemistry teacher..who was lady with a buck tooth was very delighted naturally. She must had wondering how this clown managed to improve so fast. Dun ask me..suddenly chemistry was so easy to me. Can't seemed to stopping about those days.

My childhood was fun..but i can't speak about the new generation's childhood as many are flocked with homework and coping with added pressure from their parents. Kiasu-ism at work. Additionally with foreign influxes in the form of chinese students, their days were made even more competitives. I wonder what kind of society will evolve in the next 5-6 years when these youths grown up.

I can't stop wondering how Singapore will shape. But my prediction still remains that Singapore will be caught off guard for unable to address the cost issues. so much for elitism.

Yuki Nishimura's Luminere seemed to be the album of this week.
Occasionally, Hernan Cattaneo's Rennaisance: The Master Series Volume 2 will be beating my ear drum.

Collected my IBM notebook, yeh!!

Took a long journey to collect my trusty IBM T40 notebook from service centre. As usual on the way, the iPod kept me entertained with my selective music.

Interesting while diving into my own world, i could see most Singaporean feeling very listless in the mrt. Well, despite a quick left glance to a fellow beside me holding up a "Straight Times" with the headline tat said "Remaking Singapore" (full of shit) i see
uncertainty and debts in everyone face.

I guessed "remaking" starts at the top level than on middle tier. Of croz in a meritocracy society, the rich and powerful take all. Simple as that.

Anyway, i still very tired from some late sleep and hoping i have enough energy to head to the gym after work. I need to tone a little more.

I missed that Adidas ROM shoe...i think i going to get a white color pair of shoe over the weekend. :P And luck was with me that i got $100 voucher out of thin air by just 'recommending'

I will be seeing my banker on Fri and see what she want me to "invest". Me Bo Lui liao lor.

Back to my desk....

Feeling slow and low

Dunno why today was feeling a little low. Anyway, i got home to rip some of my CD collection into my iPOD. Somehow my music preference today is a little focus on classical ambient and instrumental music.

Those music i chosen today are something i feel that the wider audiences should be able to accept. Not many people are aurally enhanced like me. I stopped feeding my ear drum of pop music since 90's. Yes..after the 80' pop craze had gone..i stroll alone into Electronica music beginning with New Age and progressively to Trance, Ambient, Tribal, Drum and Bass, Break Beat, Nu Jazz & Progressive house.

Long journey is'nt it?

I missed those 80's music..Duran Duran, ABC, Halo James, OMD, New Order, The Police, The Wham!, Prince, Fine Young Cannibal, Bronski beat.....the lists just flood on.

The tracks that i ripped today and uploaded into my iPod are

Yuki Nishimura : Graceful
Yuki Nishimura : Luminere --my fav
Orbital : Snivilisation --One of the best Orbital album
William Orbit : Strange Cargo --manz..this ambient ablum rocks, remains classic
Wipeout 2097 : Best electronic soundtrack release for game. I did played the game before...the feeling of adrenaline rushing to the head when u speed your hovercraft.
Zouk Rythm 1 : Zouk 1st DJ mixed CD, Aldrin @ his best
CASE : A deeper shade (Local musician, Case Low i think)

:)

Will be away to Malaysia

Yeap yeap, i will be away to Malaysia for between 25-29 Apr. Guessed i won't have time to add my activities on the blog.

And just despatch my IBM T40 for servicing due to suspected motherboard issues.

Sighz

Using my HP NX 7010 notebook for general office usage.

What a piece of shit --ManU

Sir Alex is such a dick head for claiming that winning FA cup is more "erotic" than gaining 2nd spot behind Chelsea..haha :D

1st this clown derail the significant value of FA Cup by fielding 2nd class players in various occassion and now he spin his shit all over the place.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/4447285.stm

I said..ya time is fucking up, red card!!!!

Just another Man U hater. kaka :p

Liverfool aiming for 4th spot in English Premier cup

Liverpool this seasons is flocking with some strange performances. Benitez no doubt is one good coach to begin with. They perform superbly in Champion League and finding its tempo unable to mesh nicely in Premier league games.

Few players were notoriously guilty of underperforming, first suspect on my hit list is definitely Harry Kewell, he is shite!! Additionally, underperforming aside, Steve G's rumor of heading to Chelsea's camp get stronger by each day passing. I hope Benitez have somebody in mind to replace their inexhaustive captain aka crazy kaptain (haha) when the league end.

Yesterday game, Liverfool drew with Hotspur and put a dent on it ambition to book 4th placing for next yr champion league competition. Everton now comfortably root in 4th placing while Bolton took 5th notch. Liverpool will have to fight harder and pray the former to drop points.

BBC said Liverpool still have chance to get to 4th spot if they fight on. I just wonder..how could they missed adding the statement that provided Everton lose some games...haha :D

I hope Stevie G did not kelong when he missed the penalty against Spur yesterday.
So close to getting three points.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/liverpool/4453561.stm


No punt intent

Quite a good week...but heading forward to next week full of activity

Darn, this week has been quite a good week. Managed to catch up and stumbled upon few folks before and during the weekend. Couples of friends who i had met are Choo siang, Robin (U again!!), Denise, Gary, Cecilia, Leocadia, Lily, Serene, Donna, Su ming, Eddy, Thomas & Agnes and Terri (still dun get ya namecard!! wtf).

Hope everyone has a nice week ahead.

BTW, i stumbled across a fellow blogger called "Darling", Robin's friend. Look like another mischeivous blogger like me.

:D

Liverpool Fan watch it!!

While i maul my Liverpool friends most of the time. I quite delighted that they beat Juventus for a entry into Champion League Semi final.

It seemed that their Captain Stevie G will soon be leaving the camp to join Chelsea there have been too much rumor lately. Just imagine Frank Lampard, John Terry and Stevie G stride across the mid field in every games..

Well..who said money cannot buy success?

Sorry Kop...your time is up and see how Benitez can use Stevie G's profit to built the team. Meantime, its Chelsea time!!

Resistance is futile!!! hahaha :D

hee...its not about Moral. Its about survivor and 1st to execute..

Sunday rant

Lazy sunday, woke up late & saw Min Sun Yung, Robin and couple of friends online.

Decided to made some posting and head off to the reading. And probably meet Leocadia for coffee at 3pm. Hopefully Monday will be a better day as i will be doing a presentation to some top folks @Agere.

Aww...how i wish i could laze a few more days... :D

My degree is done!!! :D

Finally, my degree was completed when i got my project result out.
And a spate of luck has gotten me an "A" for my Project.

Already mustered 7 subjects with an "A" and one "B" on Software management(gripe).

I hope i got top honor with a 1st class honor to allow me to pursue my Master degree in the near future.

Wish me luck, folks.

Do not bite the hand that feed you...

China has been constantly biting the hand that feed. I mean, last year alone Japan has been pouring million of dollar into Chinese's ground and the recent spate of strike seemed to be more than meet the eye. Either it was masterminded by Chinese official for politic agenda against the nippon or Nationalism at work. Disregard most of the Chinese that work in Singapore. Those r not as "patriot" as those back home. They could be worst than ya typical yankee redneck for their love of their nation. Nationalism at work, thru cultural revolution during Mao's period. The revolution aim to enforce nationalism over other influences. Teng Xiao Peng just redefine nationalism with national growth .

But the recent upsurgents of Chinese protestation against Japanese atrocities and growing Japanese militarism is a growing concern over the pacific region. Chinese army is growing rapidly and their 1st strike capacity has been under going refinement. Taiwan's issue remains at stalemate at the moment. But my personal prediction is, Taiwan will return to Mainland within this 10 yrs window. Now coupled with Japanese's military involvement in iraq has began to bring WWII atrocities into minds of many nations who suffered during its WWII campaign. Interestingly, Japan has never acknowledge its atrocities like Nanking Masscarce, chemical warfare (Unit 731) reference : http://www.nbc-med.org/SiteContent/MedRef/OnlineRef/FieldManuals/medman/History.htm

And of course nations whose were raped by the Japanese army during WWII became much concern over it military growth. The South Korean and Chinese immediately voiced their displeasure. Interestingly, the Filipino were pretty quiet in this incident as they were also one of the biggest victim as well. When General MacArthur left Philipine before its fall, the defender fell and 36,000 prisoner of war were forced to their camps were deliberated starve and kill if unable to walk. This march was called Bataan march of death. The brutality of Japanese soldiers were well documented and record in survivors accounts. But Filipino were pretty quiet up front?

Reason was possibily the nations who vocal their displeasure were no longer poor nation. South korea and China now are major player in the pacific region. And China is seeking its military coverage on pacific is pretty well known.

So moral of the story is...nationalism is proportional to the economy health of one nation.

I expect people will ask me why Singaporean did not harbour such strong nationalism and love of its country despite we had pretty growing staggering economy advances made in 70s and early 90s? The answer is for to seek...

Just another lazy sunday rant

Casino saga..

Actually, to be honest. Two years ago, i actually did predicted that our ministers will be resorted to allowing Casino to be built. And i pretty sure that the Casino location already being "built" at Sentosa island.

Sentosa Island's turnout has not been great, i mean...how fantastic can an artificial island can be? First time maybe u get a little erection over the site, second is a major turn down. I believed all have the same experience as well.

Anyway, back to topic. The argument was quite heated between me and my comrad. Thomas Yip, Mr Chua Cheng Tee and me myself. I said the Casino will be built to instill the lazy economy. But rebuttal claims from them are moral impact to built such facility. My claims was, we Singaporean already indulge on gambling on 4D, Toto, soccer betting, social majong and cruise gambling. What difference does it take to have a casino right at the foot step.

Actually, i was hoping to see the casino becoming a "wakeup call" devices for many whom was'nt thinking with their brain.

Let's the rot begins...

Someone said i was shameless!! haha

Almost traumatic day

Shits...the Stupid IBM T40 notebook have been giving me helluva problem for the past 1 days. Being a bright fellow, i did not wanna resigned to erractic behaviour of the notebook. Slowly i realised the expansion memory module of the SODIMM DDR was having contact issue which resulted in Blue screen of death prompting paging errors.

I managed to got it fix and now working dandy fine by running decent hrs of memory test.

One beer for the smart one!!!

Lazy Saturday

My greatest apology and i will try to pass u the Orange Scented Oil i brought in San Diego in our next coffee meeting.

Oracle's divine

Having see an Oracle aka Fortune teller yesterday. I had some assuring answer to my future.
While consolidating all the thoughts on what he had said about my entire life.

The foretell was based on my chinese astrology and what is being fated for the very 1st day i was borned. Some events that brought up had actually happened. Anyway..

Interesting facts is my potential will glow tremendously if i worked overseas and my fortune will peak between i am 45 to 65 years old. I guessed that sound assuring that i do not have to worry about my late years.

Interestingly women claimed to play a major part of my life. Hee...we shall see :P

Meanwhile, I not going to divulge my entire life over this blog. But i had actually seen one Oracle two years ago. Pretty much the same stuffs she told me. I guessed it is now the matter of being shown to the door and choosing to walk into it.

Blue Pill anyone?

Appreciation goes to Denise for leading me to see Master divine, Chen si fu.... thank :D

Motivated to share my thoughts

guys and girls.

Looks like this blog thing is getting into my head. Yes, i was a little late into this thingy. Few months back, my friend from Seattle Elaine asked me to do a blog.

I did not seemed interested as i had too much time on everything. Music, Mixing, work and etc etc.

Now it seemed that i could spare a little time and seeing some responses from friends like Min, Darling and Robin did prompt me add more juicy stuffs on blog.

With such wide interests, i will share some of the moral, philosophies, music, theatres and politic sites that i have been digging over the year.

Let me mess with the script and i will add more bookmark for more knowledge.

Knowledge is power and with power come heavy responsibilities.

Intenze....

Flying again

I got a funny feeling that i will be flying off again.

Maybe to KL again for some discussion with a major Malaysian Bank.

That nice actually, the night scene in KL is glowing like no tomorrow. And last visit, i was accomodating @Concorde Hotel and the pubs behind where i stood is full of people lancing and drinking away. Not to dismiss a whole lot of ayam lining u for a kill.

A social blog

I always enjoys reading politic stuffs and i never shy from penning my thought as well.
I could be labeled as ingate but still i believed that everyone has their own opinions. And playing daddy to its citizen is a huge stumbling block to social advances.

If u get what i mean.

Good site for recommendation

As usual, the Columbus of Cyber net, mum curse had again stumbled on a good site for reading.

The peking duck.
http://pekingduck.org/

Dun get turn off by its name, its content is interesting to say. On the front pg, he linked an article how China is cramping down on internet posting and all i could fathom is how scary if our gov can filter our surfing and posting habit. What is life when you do not have privacy? It was like showering with the door wide open.

Full monty here..

Seeing my Oracle tomorrow

I sure you folks remembered NEO seeking Oracle for his future.

I almost right into his shoe at the moment, as i will be seeing a renowned Fortune teller tomorrow 16:30hrs to unravel my future. That is not my 1st time. As i had seen a one two years ago.

I hope i will be able to stomach what i heard tomorrow.

Be right back for my unravelling tomorrow.

Oh...i forgot his name is Chen Si Fu @Tao Payoh. I wonder who had heard of him before. Heard he very good.

An Angry Chinese is not someone to be messed around

Stumbled on this blog. I beginning to start reading it, but i pretty sure it not wise to argue with him.

A visitor's visit to my cyber lair lately? Who took my bloster?

Hmm..i talk freely most of the time. Lately been messing with raw bean's blog. And there is Raw Bean's friend by the name Darling.

No other intent but i would like to welcome u to pen ya comment here.

I will try to post some nice sites i surfed. Pls drop by frequent to pick a quarrel with me haha

Whoever u r, darling...welcome. Her Blog is http://www.tailing.blogspot.com/

Rag to riches, Dr George Quek

Breadtalk....no one whose never heard of it must be from the mountain indeed. I had never fancied breadtalk market carrot. Why would i part my $$ for an expensive bread?

Anyway, stumbled on this article which i think its worth reading for a man with $5000 in his pocket headed straight to Taiwan and ran a franchise of Bread shops.

Amazing...let examine his success and learn to be one.

http://www.stoneforest.org/chutzpah/george_quek.html

Somehow it show that u do not need to be a scholar to be successful. :p

What i have been up to lately

Lately i brought some CDs for listening. So far my purchases have been satisfying so far.

The CDs i got hold are
Hernan Cattaneo : Rennaisance, The Master series two.
Thievery Corporation: The Cosmic Game
Lemon Jelly: '64-'92

The most interesting album is Hernan Cattaneo. Why? Well, u see i am a sucker for authenticity. I not rigid but i struck to my principle. No CD protection CDs and original pressing.

People claims pressing in locality is fine. But i felt that it overpaid for cheap labor so i might as pay a little more for UK or US pressing CDs. So what got into me was, i found this Hernan Cattaneo's latest mix at HMV Heeren along with Raw Bean. I thought i found what i wanted. But......i saw a little wording that said. Made in Taiwan.

Mutherfucker. $41 for a Taiwanese pressed CD? No way i buying it. So i went scouting for the CD in couple of places. Worst, That's CD shop is day light butcher asking for $45 for the same Taiwanese pressing. Sigh, i really wanted this CD very badly.

DJ Hernan Cattaneo has been my favorite DJ so far. Not big time yet but hardworking. I like his attitude. He reminded me of myself...hahaha

So This idiot Raw Bean msn-ed me that he downloaded his MP3s and said it was good. I said to myself, That's it. I will hunt it down.

So there i took my stroll to City-Link where the HMV is. I never realised after flipping thru few Taiwanese pressed i found a UK pressed for the same price. I brought without hesitation. Manz..darn happy.

My review is, since day one Hernan Cattaneo released his debut Mix CD under Perfecto label. South America has been my all time favorite DJ mixed CD. Why? Its had all the dark textures i yearned and its progressively made you want for more groove.

The Master server Vol1 was'nt up to my likening as it was too housey. But Vol 2 hit my G-spot (despite i ain'nt got one).

:P

Favorite track
Salvation on salvery Sins
Horn
Funky Summa
Estrange

Now back to Thievery Corporation, The Cosmic Game is the return of the same magic they produced in The Mirror Conspiracy. Layering the Brazilian beat with indian vocal. No one does better this folks. If u are looking for a CD that you can stroll around naked. This is the CD u need.

Lately due to my larling Lily got lobang for a staff price for Apple's product. I got a iPod 4G 20GB for myself. Nothing really changed except that 75% of my time spend listening to it. It not revolutionary but evolutionary that music had became so portable. of'croz the shit the music industry pouts that digital music is theft is bullshit. I brought CDs as much as i ripped them for my own. So i am boyscotting CDs that had CD protection mechanism on it. Simple, stop buying and they will stop doing this.

Enuff rant

Ops, wtf. I got the wrong name posted

Darn...it Radikaz actually. Today was a fuck freaking boring day. My partner asked me to assist them on a POC for their backup.

Lucky my Solaris skill still can bluff bluff a bit. Else will be in deep shit as i have no one to turn to.
I guessed i just too intelligent. hahaha

Oh...dear let me hit our dear friend's blog site, www.rawbean.com/blog

His site update is darn slow. Mayb he can't think faster than a snail. Ops.
I hope he not reading this piece of shit.

A new destruction has just began

A new beginning...to a new destruction...haha

Robin, really idiot. Dun give me acolumn to air my "heaty" view. Thus i decided to go
independent label.

After killing so many brain cell by thinking of a blog name. I finally settle for Radiza.

No meaning to it, but i just want to be radically different from the usual cyber herds.

Someone gave me a name as mum curse. What the fuck!!
