Car Wash... Car Wash...

Usually I wash my car once a month and yes I am lazy to wash it every weekend (hey, I still love my car and I rely on him everyday and outings). Each time I wash my car, it will take me 2 hours. I will spray, foam, spray and wipe then massage it and also give it extra services like every massage girl does upon request. Alright, I make that up. I do not massage my car. Kancil can go look for another female Kancil. Anyway, after I clean my car then it is polishing time. So at the end, I get a clean Kancil and a sweaty hot owner. Last night, I decided to put off the idea to wash Kancil on my own this coming weekend.

So I went to Mobile Petrol Station’s car wash and I planned to sit in Macdonald for a cup of hot gwai lo tea. Also, I can catch a few glimpse of chicks since my wife is not with me. (If my wife is reading this, please don’t whack me!) The moment to be alone and some chicks to look at; it’s always awesome. Unfortunately, this car wash owned by this Indian guy got his one team of washmen. I was in the car the whole process and less than 30 minutes I got a real clean Kancil.

I was like so shock (my mouth open wide) because I did not get to visit Macdonald to have my hot gwailo tea and watch girls.

First, I was asked to remain in my Kancil. Two men proceed to spray and foam Kancil. Then spray again. Second, it happened so fast that the next moment I was instructed to drive out for wiping. Okay, at this time I thought I maybe able to catch my hot gwai lo tea again and some chicks but there were 5 washmen doing wiping and vacuuming at the same time. Damn, it was so fast.

Boss: Brother that’ll be RM7.
Me: ok ok. Thanks. I did not get to have my hot gwai lo tea and watch chicks!

Boss: Don’t worry. * wink wink * Here is a refund RM2 for that.

Alright I made that up again. I was so surprise by the whole thing. Damn Fast! That evening I drove Kancil home silently. No hot gwai lo tea and no chicks to watch. I am so sad.

Is sky the limit… Fast wash.. no hot gwai lo tea and no girls to look at…

Mr Lipton and the Bitten Cup

It was night and we were waiting for the movie to start. It was a late night movie in Mid-Valley so we decided to buy some drinks from Macdonald.

Mcd Waitress: Hi, having it here or takeaway?
Me: Having it here.

Mcd Waitress: What would you like?
Me: One McFlurry Oreo and one hot Chinese tea.

Mcd Waitress: Huh?! McFlurry Oreo ok but we don’t have hot Chinese tea.
Me: * sheepishly and paiseh * hehehehehe… one hot gwailo tea.

* so we gotten our Mr. Lipton’s hot tea and McFlurry Oreo and gone up to wait *

After 15 minutes or more, I had finish my Mr. Lipton’s hot tea and wanted to have another refill because my throat was a little itchy.

Me: Hi, is it possible to just fill this cup with hot water only? You know, my throat is bad.
Mcd Waitress: ok ok, no problem. * giving me a sweet smile that will melt Ice Age 2 *

* so I handed over my cup to her *

Mcd Waitress: * she looked at my cup *
Me: * Paiseh the second time * Sorry, I loved to bite this Mcd’s plastic tea cup. Hehehe…

Mcd Waitress: o_O” … ok ok…
Me: Hehehehehe….

Nah… none of this paiseh event happen… you think I am so paiseh (embarrassing) ar?


Is sky the limit… Mr Lipton and the bitten cup.

Tuition, Getting A's and self study

Note: Long entry on my thoughts. Don't fret or come complaining to me.

Back in my study days, I hardly heard that tuition was a requirement to get As. Nowadays, tuition centers are blooming in every state. Children no longer have their good time to play, run and cycle around the neighborhood like I did in my childhood days. Yes, children today still do that but in a more restricted area like playing PS2 in their own room, going to sport center to play their games or very most likely in the tuition centers. Today’s kid is totally than yesterday’s kid and many issues were popping out in the newspaper lately regarding Malaysia’s education.

Students who are getting as many A’s as possible and each year we noticed the number of As are growing from 7As to 15As. Does A’s really matter? Back in those days, when one obtains 6A’s was seriously really big deal because that person really studies hard for it. What if? Yes, what if one study hard and still get less than that 15A’s? What should the student do? Regret over it? I believe the numbers As only represent a certain merit in a student’s overall performance. Yes, you may get a lot of attention from the public sector particularly the media sector but when it comes to working these A’s does not matter anymore. Exams as far as to the extent to obtain a degree are just a stepping stone to working life.

My story, I never had a great achievement like those in the newspaper in my PMR years and tuition center was just a way to pass my time. At the end of PMR, I totally avoided tuition centers because I just could not concentrate. There were too many distractions and it had not helped me to improve my results. In the end, I decided to attend tuition classes based on my weakest subject. Gradually after some time in my mid form four, I had not attended tuition classes. So I was on my own towards my SPM, with a few advices from school teachers and a mentor, then my final years in the university.

Student should not rely too much on tuition center. You should rely on your own self to learn about one subject. In your later years, your skill to do research will be heavily use in your university years and working too. By that time, you will not be able to find any tuition to help you with your work and your university’s final year projects. Tuition center, in my opinion, has injected more spoon feeding viruses into the mind of already infected students. Getting extra notes or extra work should be on the responsibility of the student. Student should have the initiative to look for extra notes and practices. Tuition center should only serve as a place to give advice only. The work to get extra notes should still fall onto the student’s shoulder.

Teachers are not left out and their responsibility should not just fell onto the tuition center alone to gain profit (extra pocket money). They have an important role to play in the Malaysian education system. Please knock my head if this is not logical. A teacher shouldn’t abandon their role in the school. Otherwise, why waste one time in the school where you can teach better in tuition centers? Tell me, what is the difference between a school class and tuition class? Aren’t they the same? Both of these structures have a teacher to teach and give advice. There still have the big boards to write on. Those attending both of this are students. Read my lips, students my dear readers. Therefore, what make them so different? The notes? The material being teach is different? Else, we can all abolish the school and just setup tuition center all over in Malaysia. What makes the education system in Malaysia so wrong that student have to go to tuition center? I do not think so. I am also a student myself. I do not think that the Malaysian education is lacking. Instead, they need to improve their teacher’s mind and ways of teaching so student can be confident in their studies.


If tuition center is different from the school then it means the teaching is advance, teacher is more caring and there is more opportunity for discussion. Now let’s stop at this point and ask this question yourself, “Don’t the school teachers do this in their own class room?” If you say yes then it means student should not be attending tuition classes and everything is adequately provided in the classroom. If you say no then it means the class is big, a lot of distraction; teacher couldn’t care less, everyone is left on their own; notes and homework are given, but not taken seriously; everybody goes to tuition, its better. I rest my case. Unfortunately, my dear readers I beg to differ. Not all things subject to academic are resolving by attending tuition centers. One day, students will need to get themselves off the habit of spoon feeding and go do more study on their own. It is better for the young ones to study without spoon feeding and we will definitely see more intellectual Malaysians. Sadly, we still see spoon feeding in the university.

I am not saying tuition center is bad but I am trying to point out that it should not be rely by students so much. People should look up to school as their point of academic center to educate their children. Schools regardless if it is private or public should be more united to improve their standard and facility (teaching) to students. I just do not see why students should attend tuition centers so much. I also do not see why tuition centers should get so popular among our academic achievers. Yes, please throw the tuition centers out into the garbage bin, set the student free into the play ground, improve the teacher’s attitude and mind in the school, tell students they should not think A’s so much because there are many things that students need to understand and to learn. Why not? You fear that students without tuition centers will fail terribly and get into nasty things. Tell me my good readers, I think today’s younger generation are smarter but with a little tuning in their head I bet they could come out something more positive than us today. Things today that we see just could not be satisfy and justify with A’s and attending tuition classes.

Sincerely, how many A’s does a student determine obtain? As the years go on the number of A’s increases, how many hours of study does one really need to study to obtain that goal?

Is sky the limit… look ma, I got 20 A’s!

COM and Second Snr. COM

Second Snr. COM: Anywhere companies are the same. Old employees are just sacked and new ones are employ to replace them. Young and energetic plus cheaper. Everyone is a salesperson regardless engineer or technician. Always remember, there is no such thing as job security.
COM: There is one, geisha. Everybody loves f**king.

Me: Yeah, just become a geisha and find an old rich guy. Do him until he dies and take away all his property. Then look for another old f**k and repeat the process. Secure 100%
COM and Second Snr COM: hahahahahahahahahahaha…

Second Snr COM: But geisha still get old right?
Me: Who ask you to work until you are old? Do now and save until the right amount lar. Reach the target then say retired lar. Then on the retirement stage get a stable old man and continue with old life lar. Like that no need to worry about loneliness lar.

COM and Second Snr COM: damn…
Me: What else if you expect a secure job. Sell buttock ka, sell front part ka, sell mulut ka… everything with lubang pun boleh mar… unless you try something unique like lubang hidung or lubang telinga pun boleh… lubang bird bird… want ar?

COM and Second Snr. COM: o_O””” ok ok…


Is sky the limit… selling buttock… Buttock! Buttock! Mari! Mari! RM30 saja! Murah!

Dr's Handwriting

Yesterday evening I did not know what got into me and I asked my wife about doctor’s handwriting.

Me: Do you find it hard to read doctor’s handwriting?
Florence: No and yes, sometimes its quite difficult, different doctors write differently, sometime so small you just can’t read it, but now they are required to write everything in capital letters to overcome that. Normally, surgeons with delicate fingers will write very small.

Me: I see, eh, can show me some doctor’s handwriting ar?
Florence: * scribble scribble *

Me: Wow man, what is that?
Florence: 5D1/2NS, it means 5% gula Melaka and 0.45% garam masak.

Me: Ya kah?!
Florence: Hahahahahaha… no lar it means 5% glucose and 0.45% saline or garam.

Me: I see. What does it do?
Florence: Water for dripping into patient.

After half an hours describing bloods and types of water,

Me: …
Florence: Understood ar?

Me: err… lets just stick H20 and blood is blood. Hehehehe… * I just couldn’t comprehend all those medical terms, functions and effects.

Is sky the limit… tulisan cacing

No, I don't want anything

If you girls are alone better becareful if you are approach by people who carries a bag and some papers in their hand. You might not know what will happen to you until its too late. Some might be genuine salesperson trying to sell you something. But if you can imagine the scene someone trying to sell you something in a shopping centre like Mines Resort. Just don't make sense.


Here is one incident:


Me: Dear, i am going to put this tray back over there.

Florence: ok.


* i walked over then i turned my head *


Stranger: * talking to Florence showing her a piece of paper and one hand holding a briefcase *

Florence: I don't...

Me: I don't want anything, go away * one hand doing the shoo-ing sign "
Stranger: ok ok... * walked away *


I just don't see that stranger talking to anyone even after i had shoo him away. Strange don't you think. There are so many couples and some alones sitting around and why don't he talk to them. So what is he trying or planning to do to single girls? If you are trying to sell something why don't you stop me and say you need to sell something to me. My first impression will be, "seems to me the guy is trying to con people". Or maybe he doesn't want to attract attention if i decided to make a fuss. Or maybe he is just being polite by responding to someone said no.


Whatever the reason just becareful when you are alone in the shopping plaza or anywhere.


I know times are difficult and some people are resorting to selling on the streets to earn some money. So just becareful.


Remember if you don't want anything, just say firmly: "No thank you, I don't want anything".



is sky the limit... I don't want anything. Go away.

The Hectic Over.

With the massive heat that permeating through the atmosphere, I successfully lived through to face the last paper on Monday, though, hopefully, go through it with another success or good faith!

Doing nothing else, I clicked, clicked and clicked.

Finally, stopped at ISTL and glanced through it.

"OMG, 'he' become a lecturer? In a million years! Why he wants to be a lecturer?"

"I have no idea where that idea came?"

"Hmm, human is a very complex form, isn't it?"

Maybe, I would be a scientist working in a laboratory, working with a sample of a virus (which I would think it is a T-Virus!). Then, wouldn't it be fun?





[Spending too much time on papers and documents can make someone build castle in the air.
E.g. I want to be a scientist working in Umbrella Inc.!]

Me being a lecturer...

I always think of after retirement I will be a lecturer. This morning i had an early dream while driving to work. Yeah I know dreaming and driving is dangerous. But i just couldn't help it. After all, it was still morning.

Being a lecturer, I think I will be a very bad and evil teacher. I can imagine students hating me and calling me names behind my back. But as all my employers and supervisors always said,

"It’s good for you and you should appreciate the opportunity given to you".

So for that I will give my students the same treatment but with added flavor, "Its good for you and you should appreciate the opportunity given to you, don't blame me but blame the industry".

Let’s try to simulate some of my dreams.

Scene 1: Walking into a new class on the first day
Me: Ok, I know we are new and this is your first day in this class. Please study chapter 1 to chapter 5. We will have quiz next week. Our lecturer and student relationship will be more exciting after this week… or forget about it.
Students: Jeeze!... who the hell is he? * some refuses to believe this will be their lecturer *

Scene 2: While my back facing the students and looking at my presentation slides.
Me: If you don't understand this, don't blame me, blame the industry who designs this. Understood? Any question? No? Then go home read it up. It’s easy to understand, right?
students: * whispering whispering * as though he is damn pandai...

Scene 3: While introducing myself to the class.
Me: My name is William and there will be assignments after every three weeks. All this will add up to your final semester 10%. Quiz 30%. 3 big exam papers equivalent 60%. I don't care if you got other assignments not related to my class or you are working part time at night. If you fail then you did not manage your time well for my class. So decide now.
Students: This lecturer real KNNMCB &^^*%$$^%$%@#$#$%...

Scene 4: One day before Chinese New Year Holiday/Hari Raya/Deepavali/Wesak Day/Christmas/Labour Day/Teacher's Day/Agung's Birthday/PM's Birthday/Sultan's Birthday/Father's birthday/Mothers' birthday/Grandfather's Birthday/etc
Me: Here is your research questions. I want that on my box when you come back. No extension. Delay will be shot!
Students among themselves: Awwwww... f**K!

Scene 5: One week before the exam
Me: Ok chapter 1 to chapter 8 will be coming out. But please study this book also... the industry has upgraded their spec. Chapter 1 to chapter 3. Don't blame me. Blame the industry.
students: Kanasai!

Scene 6: One student came to my room.
Student: Sir, I have a problem completing my project.
Me: Which project? Be specific.
Student: The assignment 3 blah blah blah.
Me: * busy with his blog *
Me: what did you say? say that again?
student: * in his heart - *&^*&^%&%##@$ * sorry sir, its blah blah blah...
Me: oh that one... simple only mar... what problem?
student: * in his heart - &%$*&##%&&$$^ * its blah blah blah...
Me: ok, take this book and read. Chapter 3 to chapter 4. The answers are all there. Go read and apply it. If cannot then... aiya you go do first... cannot then we only decide hor? Learn lar like your friend XXXX who has finish that already. See! His project here on my table already. Go now. Just to remind you, your due date is one day tomorrow. No extension understand?
student: * in his heart - kanineh kanasai MCBHKCDLLM * thank you sir. * silently tiu! *

Scene 7: Final days before the semester is over.
Me: Everything I taught in the class and the things you learnt and did through pain and blood... I hope you understand that it is for your own good and you should not blame me. Its the industry. The industry changes faster than you changed your girlfriends or boyfriends... Moreover, you are all still young and have a bright future. Please fill this survey form for me. Thank you.
Students: Tiu!

is sky the limit... teaching will be syok.

Someone else is sleeping in my room...

Last night, I heard someone snoring very loudly and walked into the bedroom. I saw another person sleeping next to Florence. I got so angry, like i wanted to meletup and go mad, and decided the most evil thing a man do could do...




I took his photo as evidence...

Awww... ain't he cute...

Florence : what he?! is a she... her name is Pinky... how many times must i tell you?!


* whack whack whack *


Me: Aduh... Aduh...

ISTL : Lunchtime Analysis

Disclaimer: Names has been changed to protect their identity. This entry is very long and read at your own sweet time. Those who hate long entries please read the short abstract. I will not be held responsible to anything written in this entry. Those who shall not like and hate this entry should leave this blog. Thank you.

The Short Abstract:

A business tower with limited supply and limited choice of food offer will result health hazard to its workers working there. To read this in details please read further.

Introduction:
This is a food source report conducted to analyze the effect of limited supply of food source in A*C*RP Mall towards its visitors who are mainly workers who work in its business towers.


To analyse the situation, i have re-created the scenario into a story.


Scenario:
As usual today TC, Padme, Kerry, LF and me went to our usual place for our usual food and drinks. Except for COM he wanted vegetarian and joined his other friend at another stall. We had the usuals for the past one year and four months. Yet, the days we need to endure this sickening usuals are still counting.


Definitely, we are sick of the usuals. Unfortunately, we work in A*C*RP Tower where good food are scarce and you need to force yourself to swallow it. Here is my observation of our daily question and answer routine to look for food. Again, I stressed its a routine. That routine which you cannot miss. If you miss it meaning there is an issue. Here is the observation:


Observation:
TC : * Walks over to my cubicle *
Me : * I looked up *


TC : Jom, makan.
Me : Yeah... where?
TC : Dunno.


Me : lets ask Padme and COM
TC : Yeah...


TC : jom, makan.
Padme : Yeah... where?
Me : * silent and praying *
TC : Dunno.


Padme : lets ask Kerry.
TC : Yeah...


TC : jom, makan.
Kerry : yeah... * smile like a cute angel * ... where?
Me : * silent and praying *
Padme : hehehe...
TC : Dunno.


Kerry : lets ask LF.
TC : Yeah...
TC : jom, makan.
LF : Yeah... where?
Me : * silent and praying *
Padme : hehehe...
kerry : * smile like a cute angel * hehehe...
TC : Dunno.


COM : Lets go down first...
TC, Kerry, LF, Padme, Me : ok.


* While in the lift *


Me : So where...
TC : Dunno.
Padme : anything...
Kerry : anywhere will do...
LF : hahahaha...
COM : * on his phone talking business deal *


* about to reach ground floor *


COM : * closed his phone * So, where do we eat?
TC : Dunno.
Padme : anything...
LF : hahahaha...
Me : * look at him * i love you...


* Out in the A*C*RP lobby *


Me : Ok, where?
TC : Dunno.
Padme : * silent and praying that William won't ask her *
Kerry : Hehehehe... anything lar
LF : * look elsewhere *
COM : * phone ring * hello, ya ya.. the business deal is on.. RM4.5 million... cash... not cheque.. preferably in suitcase... yak yak yak...


* Reaching the A*C*RP main shopping level *


Me : OK, where?
TC : Dunno.
Padme : * looking at Poh Kong Jewellery and smiling gleefully *
Kerry : Hehehehe... anything lar
LF : * look elsewhere *
COM : * still on his business deal *


* Reaching the bottom *


Me : OK, there is mamak, Kapitan chicken, mamak, uncle chillies, Giant restaurant, subway, and rak tahi.. i mean rak thai...
TC : Dunno.
Padme : * yak yak with Kerry *
Kerry : * yak yak with Padme *
LF : * look elsewhere *
COM : eh william, need to meet a business partner... you guys go ahead...
Me : ok.


* Reaching the mamak *


Me : * sigh... I just sat down on the mamak's table *
TC, Kerry, Padme, LF: * all sat down *


* at the mamak *


Indian brother : Minum?
Me : 5 gelas air suam.


Indian brother : Ok, makan?
Me : 1 nasi goreng biasa


TC : 1 nasi goreng biasa
Kerry : 1 nasi goreng sayur
Padme : 1 Mee goreng
LF : * Goes to the food stand to pick 1 fried fish, 1 tofu and white rice *


* Please repeat the above process and conversation from the beginning for one week, then one month, then one year and so forth *


Analysis:
Referring to the process above and to write this technical analysis, the restriction of food choices in one domain of a limited space will stricken the choice of human words and decision making. Given the time of one year and four months, the process of brainstorming for food will become redundant and the usual aspect of food selection will become a norm that for the specimen above will only follow what other specimen do in that particular space of time.


A*C*RP Mall need to expand or the specimen attending to its offer will have a shrinkage in vocabulary usage and lower level of brainstorming function which will affect the health of the specimen:


1. Lower vocabulary usage.
Given the fact that the working environment is very quiet, lunch time should be happier to compensate back the loss of vocabulary during working. Unfortunately, the limited number of food offer in A*C*RP Mall has further reduce vocabulary usage among the workers. Over the period, this may cripple the ability of the specimen to talk normally. To some specimen, it may be the reverse. Therefore, this type of specimen will likely to go crazy and play with their vocabulary.


2. Unable to perform decision making.
With much of the specimen working environment revolves around the email, many instruction given were according to email based instruction (EBI). In order to make the specimen more interactive, lunch hour should be the perfect hour to create interaction among themselves. However, A*C*RP Mall provides a limited food offer that has resulted many specimen unable to make a quick decision on which food to take. The mind has been numb by the fact of too little variety in food offering. Over the long period, it will be hazardous to the mouth muscle.


3. Repetitive Stress Injury.
Although this term is usually associated with computer usage injury but due to the repetitive activity of questioning and action for one week might injury to the specimen who repeatedly perform same the action. Take for example specimen name TC, the specimen has repeatedly answer "dunno" in every question put forth by specimen William.

Do men cross their legs when sitting?

Public holiday is always the best. Unfortunately, my apartment is now television-less so entertainment is a little bit restricted in the evening. That faithful evening, i got hold of the latest CLEO magazine. After flipping through a few pages at the end, one article got my attention. That article had this question put like this:

Is it ok to cross your legs while you are sitting?

The answer is very much depending on the gender. For the female, it is fine to cross their legs while sitting. However, for males like us, we won't feel very comfortable. The reason because we have balls and it will be squeeze if we cross our legs while sitting.


So, that question was further discuss and improve as below:


Florence : so you really can't cross legs while sitting?
Me : Hmmm... dun feel good squeezing it lar... nope.


Florence : So it means sissy only cross legs lar?
Me : Hmmm... yup that is right...


Florence : But why they can squeeze and you cannot... sissy also got balls mar...
Me : Well, you know, low poh, if i ever cross legs, you and i got a big problem.


Florence : huh?
Me : You see, sissy have small balls, and most probably can't satisfy their partner at night. Understood so far? That is why all their friends are known as sisters.


Florence : ok.
Me : Then for guys like us, we are all consider the real man, the men, and we have the balls that is with the right size and the right skill we can use it to satisfy our partners every night. So wouldn't you like it? Therefore, I don't cross legs while sitting. I am a man. Again, Wouldn't you like it? * wink * wink *


Florence : Hamsap! What do you mean satisfy partner every night and wouldn't i like it... hamsap! hamsap!... go away... eeeeeeee.... hamsap!!!!!!


* CLEO magazine rolled up to hit the hamsap man who don't cross his legs while sitting *


* whack! whack! whack! *


Therefore guys, please be kind and gentle to your inheritance management system down there. Don't cross your legs. Squeezing is hazardous...



is sky the limit... we are men with balls

Everything KAPUT!

Last Friday night, my cough was getting better. Still its slightly but not so worse than Thursday.


Apart from that, that Friday I am absolutely speechless with the things that had happened to me.


First, my notebook's CD ROM kaput. I wanted to upgrade to Windows XP Professional. It went kaput with "Tuk Tuk" sound. I am using W2K Professional.


Second, since my CD ROM kaput so i tried my external DVD/CD Burner to run the XP installation. It went kaput too. It wouldn't read the CD. Maybe i should try some other CDs. If it work on others, still i am going to get a new one.


Third, after failing to install XP, i gave up and went to see television. Guess what! My television kaput too! WTF?! It just pssst and black out. I tried hitting it a few times, the screen just come and go. Well, that is it for that television. More on TV episode.


I am max out and no entertainment currently at home. Can't do any technical review for SAP now. Thank god, i can still play Pharaoh 2 and Starcraft EXP. Well, i just stick to those games for the time being.


Shit... everything kaput at the same time... geez!



is sky the limit... kaput! kaput! kaput!

Water Spirit... Bah!

I need to and got to review this because at the end of the day I found this movie is not as good as the title said. Its a crap!

Water spirit
Not for the faint hearted
and pregnant women.

Ok lets hold this movie and its tagline to its value first.


When florence and me saw this poster both of us were like awe because of its tagline. Even the poster we felt it is scary enough. So we proceed to buy the tickets to see it.


Throughout the movie, the ghost was good only lar but the plot sucks. Utterly sucks.


Here is the spoiler:


Story goes back to the past in the first showing a group of girl students studying in a catholic school. They were taught by this strict principal. No, the principal did not do SM or anything that is sexually gratifying acts. Oh boy, i would have love this movie if that happen. Sadly, it did not. She preached them about SIN.


One day, one of the girl got horny with the priest, Father Miguel, and they make out like rabbits. As COM always said. At the end of it, yes the girl got pregnant. Unfortunately, the girl was looking at her pregnancy kit in the bathroom at the wrong time when the principal walked in and found out. To punish her sin, the principal proceed to pour hot water on her privates. Yes, she did it. Poor girl, she yelled and cried.


Then, on one hand, a group of girls were in the kitchen heard the girl cried. So they want to check it out and found the principal was punishing their friend. So they drowned the principal and dumped her body into the holy pond and vowed never to mention this to anyone.


After 18 years, the catholic school closed, the principal were never found, the girls are now adults and the one got who pregnant gave birth lar. One night, the holy pond was disturb and the ghostly principal came alive to kill the girls for their sin.


So the first to go was the girl who got pregnant. She was knifed at the throat. Gory. I am fine with it.


Then the second, the fat lady had both of arms amputated by a falling lift. Syok. I am still fine with it.


The third, cruxifixed in her own bathroom. Ok lar only.


The fourth, beheaded by a broken window. Nothing much... i've seen this in Braveheart and Lord of the Rings many times similarly being hacked off by swords or other things.


The fifth, burnt to death. Ok lar.


The sixth, had died before the movie began. * scratch head.. .no idea *


The last, the daughter was spear through the chest. This is the shittest part... illogical... just do not understand it.


Well, the last killing event happen to be in a water-filled chamber where the heroine intend to eliminate the principal in the water. Of course the ghost and the heroine died-ed. Why? The daughter was possesed the ghost, i think. the objective the heroine died was not clearly made out. If the director complained me i would just say, "Tiu, your movie last half part... i am blurred to the max!"


One thing about this story, it is absolutely nothing horrifying and as faint hearted as it is describing in its tagline. I would not say pregnant women should not watch this. It is more of a laughing ghostly act.


Even though there are few scary moments but towards the trip from New York to Barcelona the events are more a like what the hell's going on. Some things are just plain illogical like the friend priest Gabriel trying to make out with the daughter in the dead principal's room. Would you want to do that? No way. The movie characters just keep on going up and down or miss this things or that things. Clearly, it has no suspense and thrill effect in it.


After watching this movie, i do not find the tagline that convincing. Not for the fainted heart?! Are you kidding?

If you were asking is the ghost scary? No, movies like Ring, One Miss Call, Reincarnation ghost characters are more scarier than this! By the way, Reincarnation is the next upcoming ghost movie from Japan. I will be definitely watching this with Florence.


The story is definitely lame.


If you have watched Water Spirit, please compensate your satisfaction by watching, When A Stranger Calls. Its awesome and full of suspense. I recommend that you watch this movie. Its packed with energy.


After leaving the show,


Florence : Water spirit.. eh...
Me : Water spirit... ptuiiieee....
Florence : hahahahahahahaha...


is sky the limit... not for the faint hearted?! My arse!

The Oilment

Do you know that it is scientifically proven in the world RE that if a survivor swallow his/her saliva, he/she can actually prevent sorethroat infection from happening. It's your saliva!

"Ever wonder when you work/study or concentrating do you ever swallow your saliva or you might be holding your saliva?"

'Constant swallowing your saliva can actually reduce 99% of throat infection' ~ source from the scientific world.










Well, if you don't believe it go check it out and rebut me!

My sorethroat... relapsed... sigh...

My sorethroat is back again... sigh...

Sick and tired of the damn cough. Everywhere i go, that throat of mine is always looking for the opportunity to make me cough. All day and all night, i am coughing here and there. The phelgm in my throat is nasty.


One day, while i was driving:


Me : * cough * cough * ah haks .... grrl.... * phelgm was in my mouth *

How about, if my phelgm suddenly fly across the street due to aerodynamics its physical feature, landed on a biker's helmet. Or even drop into his mouth! Eeewww... Disgusting...


Me : * shit *

Florence : So how did it taste?

Funny little thing

As he was walking down the path..

At 5.45pm, a short message came into his phone. He checked the message:

"RM20.00 was successfully reloaded into your account."

He looked left and right, scratched his head and confused. He was walking down the lane and suddenly, RM20.00 was reloaded into his phone out of no where. Funny, so he took out his laptop and checked who did such a kind deed but in vain.


Happy, happy, he skidded and hopped along the path.

[Time tickling]
...

...

...
[Time stopped]

At 7.20pm, someone phoned with weird number. He took out his phone and answered it.

CH : "Hello!"

Kind Soul : "Hello, who's this?"

[He was stunned, what the heck with phone communication nowadays? People phoned you and asked who are you? Where is the logic?]

[I was 50% annoyed but still calm.]

CH : "Hmm, who are you looking for?"

Kind Soul : "Hmm, actually just now I accidentally reload my credit to your phone so can you
transfer credit to my phone?" "Sorry - ah, sorry -ah!"

CH : [at a state of confusion] "Hmm, how do I transfer RM20 to your phone?"

Kind Soul : "Oh, simple only, just like normal transfer or reload, just type in my phone!"

CH : "I don't know how to do it!"

Kind Soul : "Maybe you go to a phone shop and ask them to do it. Just RM20 only. Sorry -ah,
sorry -ah!"

CH : [?????] "Okay, I try my best-lar." [evil grinned]

Kind Soul : "Thank you and very sorry!"

CH : Okay, I'll try my best.

[Both hung up]

The moral of the story - Welcome to the world [the caller a woman, it seems]! If you wrongly reload your credit to someone, I bet absolutely no one would willingly return it to you unless he/she your bestfriend whom is just next to you. Furthermore, you do not the location of me and how you so sure that I will return the credit to you? And most of all, you just lost RM20 and you still got the urge to waste more money on calling me with a Maxis number!

"I'm terriby sorry if my words are too rough, vulgar, impolite or rude but this is life! Money money, money!"

"Do you think I would go to the nearest phone shop and ask them to transfer RM20 which will in turn burn my wallet for another RM20 simply for you?"

[I believed you're too naive!]

At the end, he continued eating his lunch "Kung Pao Yu Pin", then he paid for it and returned home for shower.

"Hmm, did someone phone me just now?"

Happy April Fool CEO!

WARNING : CEO be prepared to be gotcha! Happy April Fool Day Devon! This is for you!

Selamat pagi/petang/malam sekalian,

Sekarang tibalah masa kita mengundang CEO ke wawancara "Jalan Jalan Mencari Jodoh". Segment hari ini, CEO akan menceritakan macam mana kita boleh "tackle" perempuan tak kira di tepi jalan raya atau di pub.

Marilah kita bermula:

ISTL : Selamat datang ke segment kita, CEO.

CEO : Sama-sama, dah lama kita tidak berucap ya?

ISTL : Ya. CEO, hari ini kita akan berbincang macam-mana kita boleh ber"tackle" perempuan dalam semua keadaan.

CEO : Cun... no problem... it's my field...

ISTL : Baru-baru ini munculnya banyak chicks di tempat kerja anda, jadi macam-mana anda menangani semua keadaan itu?

CEO : Pertama, saya syoknya dan rasa g-e-m-b-i-r-a skali! Second, kita mesti selalu ber-steadi... steady lar bro...

ISTL : Faham. Harap pembaca sekalian dapat mencontohi CEO... steady is the word

ISTL : Dalam entry anda, anda nyata ada seorang chick datang dekat dan membelai tangan anda. Kenapa anda elak dia?

CEO : Ini isu pride saya lar... tak boleh senang dapat belai...

ISTL : Oh begitu... jadi macam-mana seorang perempuan harus mendekati anda?

CEO : Perempuan itu, bukan setakat belai tangan saya saja. Itu tidak akan beri banyak rangsangan kepada saya. Dia sepatut cium telinga saya sewaktu belai tangan saya. Tambah lagi, saya tidak dapat hidu minyak wangi kesukaan saya. Oleh itu, mungkin dia patut guna minyak wangi Calvin Klein yang terbaru atau DKNY yang terkini.

" ... tidak akan beri banyak rangsangan kepada saya... "

ISTL : Rupanya begitu... kalau perempuan itu, yang anda nyata dalam blog anda, datang lagi dan melakukan apa yang tadi CEO kata... adakah anda akan menerima dia?

CEO : Pastilah saya akan menerima dia.. dah lama saya sendiri kat atas gegunung ini... harap semua faham keadaan saya di-atas... sunyi... balik rumah sendiri pun tengok balak saja... dvd dan vcd pun dah lama luput... hari ini beli esok dah luput...

ISTL : Ok lah... kita semua faham... saya harap CEO akan dapat cari jodohnya dengan cepat... dan dapat menbasmi kuman sunyi di atas gunung itu...

ISTL : sekian sahaja sampai sini... diharap perempuan dalam blog CEO ada baca ini dan silalah beri lagi satu peluang bagi CEO... kitorang di ISTL juga akan berasa gembira kalau CEO tidak lagi kesunyian di atas gunung itu.

ISTL : Sekian sahaja.. kita jumpa lagi di segmen lain kali... jangan lupa... "Jalan Jalan Mencari Jodoh"...

is sky the limit... "jalan jalan mencari jodoh"...

Marriage, babies, WWW

The question of marriage comes into mind of a few person in one small fellowship of the One Point Eight.

Here were their recent conversation when one of their member was getting married:

At one point,

Me : our parents married young. My mom married at 21.

TC : Yeah, it was early.

Padme : If you get married you will have children and your pay won't be able to sustain your family.

Padme : And I think China is having one child policy right?

Me : Yeah.

TC : Yeah, but getting married you have to think a lot about expenses. Its not cheap.

Me : Yeah. Milk, diapers, cereals, baby shirts, baby socks, cradles, toys, prams, baby chairs. Then when they grow, you got to worry about kindergarten's fees, then primary school fees, eat and drink, vacation, toys, books, uniforms, then college where you will have to pay them for mobile phones, movies, dates, books again, nicer and trendy clothing, watches, saloon, etc... etc...

Padme : *_*" understood... understood

LF and Kerry : * giggling *

TC : not to mention, you have to give ang pau (red packets) during Chinese New Year. Also you won't be getting one either.

Me : * groan * oh yeah... now you remind me that...

Padme : * laugh *

LF and Kerry : * laugh *

TC : Hmmm... that is why i still favour my now good and relaxing single life.

Padme, LF and Kerry : * Laugh *

Me : Eh, don't see marriage as dead end lar... Once you are married, its will become more colorful, exciting and vibrant....

Padme : * laugh *

Me : Maybe you can also use this as a reason to tell your future employers that you got mouths to feed and need increment, cola, kids allowance, benefit and blah blah blah...

Padme : Yeah right...

Me : The more the better... how about 9 to 13... and start a football match?

Padme : Oi...

Alright, the last part i made that up. Marriage is a holy matrimony event that is celebrated between the couple and announce to the WWW. Cool isn't it. Its whole wide world.

I don't care when i get married i will have my marriage on the WWW.

The disappearance of the mysterious man : File no.1

"When you don't want me but need me, I'll stay. If you want me but no longer need me, I'll leave."

[Puff!]

"Ah, what the heck?"

"What kind of nanny is this?"

I had been disappeared for long due to the chronosphere which incorrectly transfered me to the the 8o's of the world where I met Brown's family who urgently need a nanny to take care of six(6) children.

Well, I was flabbergasted when the nanny gave a human characteristic to the donkey which in turn can dance, sing and flirt!

So much for the nanny.

[Blink!] - Back to the current world.

"What the heck! I got an 'exam' on Sunday!?!"

"Shit shit you 'exam'!"

"I haven't read 'you' yet!"

"OMG, what the heck am I going to do?"









[And I'm here blogging!] - What a paradox! But isn't that human characteristic?
People confuse each other in a lot of ways...

COM vomit blood but felt syok!

Me: COM, do you know how to go to Jalan Ampang ar?

COM: Yeah I do.

Me: Can you teach me ar?

COM: Sure. Where are you starting your journey? From PJ Tower or your apartment?

Me: Hmmm... from Jalan Universiti (UMMC).

COM: Ok

* So he proceeded to yak yak yak yak on the directions for at least 20 minutes and me also like um um um but but but for at least 20 minutes too *

Me: Oh, i see. Aiya!... why you did not say it's KLCC. I know how to go there mar. Waste time describing only...

COM: How do i know...you ask i answer lar... by the way, why do you want to go to Jalan Ampang?

Me: Cos i need to go to shitibank.

COM: You ar! You should just tell me you want to visit Shitibank lar... Shitibank just next to KLCC mar. Make me describe the direction for 20 minutes. You chee sin (crazy) ar!

* COM vomitting blood *

Me: sorry ar brother... hehehe... i don't know shitibank next to KLCC... hehehehe...

At the end of it, both also chee sin. Why? It's because COM syok syok describing and me syok syok ok ok on the directions.

if communication between human were effective then:

Me: COM do you know where is shitibank
COM: Next to KLCC
Me: Ok thank you.

Case close.

Although once in a while there will be some small topics on .NET but those who are not interested in technical will find that place a bit (or should i say damn) bored. Anyway, it's my blog.

If you ever wonder will i be inserting some hardware or gadget updates then perhaps i will when i ever find something cool or superb. Then, i only put into that technical blog. As you see, i am more of a coding and concept guy so i am not very much into hardware. Don't ask me what is the latest hardware selling in Low Yat or Imbi. Coz if you do, i will refer you either to this site or you can talk to COM and TC Boy.

Happy Launching ISTL: The Technical

Sam Poh Tong and Kek Loh Tong - Caves

I’m suppose to enter this entry into ISTL but I was diverted into something else most of the time. Now I could find sometime to make this particular entry. Remember my last entry on Chinese New Year? Yes, I did not only just went home to get fat but I did some exploration too. I went to visit Sam Poh Tung (Cave Sam Poh) and Kek Lok Si. These two caves can be found in the northern states of Malaysia. However, I did not visit the Perak Cave. Probably I will try to visit it in the next two months or so.

My first cave : Sam Poh Tung

There are turtles for you to feed. Take a look at Raphael’s cousin. Its cute, right?

This Michaelangelo eating.

Now, here is the Donatello. Cowabunga dude! Master Splinter won’t mind if I grab a few more bites.

Inside the cave, this are the high walls encircling the turtle pond the temple.

The second cave : Kek Lok Si

The entrance looked like an archaelogical site. Its windy once you enter the cave. Its windy than the first cave.

Crude Hasting and behind him are the three Buddha’s. Peace on Earth. Amitabha. Crude Hasting : * Pray * I wish to have more than one girlfriend. * Amitabha *

Some of the rocks formation found in the cave.

Another rock formation on the ground. Most of this rock formation are barricaded from visitors.

Here is another rock formation.

Here is another rock formation on the ground opposite above formation.

This rock formation suppose to have water on its tip. I guess I need a better camera or I need better lighting.

For you guys out there who love stalagmite and stalatit, you can visit both of this caves. It has all those rocks that you can find for your photo album. Admittance to both caves are free of charge. However, in the first cave, Sam Poh Tung, you might want to buy a few spinach or kang kung from the stalls nearby to feed the turtles. Trust me there are more than just four teenage mutant ninja turtles in that cave. Take your sweet time and feed them. They will love you.



is sky the limit... wonderful caves in Ipoh

Economy, Girls, Study and Sleep

I remember when I first took my second Economy class (who told you that my first double degree was Bach. IT? No, I was a Finance/Accounting student before I changed to Information System) in Sydney, the number one rule from the syllabus I always remember is:

When there is a demand for goods and services there will be a supplier to supply it. Said that, both will always be in equilibrium. Else, there will be oversupply or under demand and vice versa.

With continuous expansion and huge shopping complexes in KL like the MidValley Megamall, 1 Utama, The Curve, Ikano, Jusco, Tesco, Ikea and another coming up gigantic GSC building it kept me thinking whether people here are that rich. I have not included the golden triangle area (StarHill, Sungei Wang, and what’s that another place I kept on forgetting) Do we really spent a lot? Or, the Malaysian economy has finally caught up and running after 1997 economic crisis. It has been a long time and I think many people had forgotten that incident.

I did felt the pinch from that crisis when I was in Sydney especially with the exchange rates. Nevertheless, I still managed to finish my two years of study in Sydney. Although I did not manage to finish another three years there (who told you I did my twinning in KL? I never did any twinning programme, I went to Sydney to study for my degree) but it was fun staying there. Nice weather, nice shower (rain) and nice girls. Well, you may want to visit King’s Cross in Sydney during the summer.

Anyway, here is my last entry before I go to bed.

Good night.

Is sky the limit… economy, Sydney, study, girls, and sleep?

Ah Pek With His Flat Tyre

Today as I was returning home from work, we met a car. This car was unusual because it tilted to one side. Yet, it was still moving.

Florence : Look, this car has a flat tyre on its left rear side.
Me : Yeah.

* After a few minutes of silence *

Me : I was thinking should I go down and inform the Ah Pek. If I don’t do it I feel bad about it. If I do it then I risk being called a busy body or mind your business buddy. Well, I think I better just stay in here and wait for the light to go green.

Florence : * looked at me *
Me : Alright, I just stay put.

Florence : Yalar… maybe the Ah Pek knows about it but decided to drive it to the nearest petrol station or tyre shop leh.
Me : But I think its damaging for the tyre’s rim right? If it’s a motorbike then its ok but this is a car.

Florence : Never mind, just stay where you are.

* After passing the traffic light and the first petrol station *

Me : Hey, looked at this Ah Pek, he just passed by the petrol station and did not stop.

* In front of the tilted one side car, the car was moving like an imbalance bullock cart *

Me : Doesn’t he feel anything on the stirring. He should feel something right?
Florence : Yeah hor… wait lar, maybe in front there is tyre shop for cars leh? See there’s one in front.

Me : Ok.

* the car move passed the tyre shop and still moved on *

Me : I think he doesn’t know he has a flat tyre. Maybe I can drive next to it and you can tell the Ah Pek.
Florence : Ok

* Florence make some sign to Ah Pek *

Me : Ok ar?
Florence : No lar, his face like eat shit only. Black as though someone stepped on his tail.

Me : Maybe he knew someone punctured his tyre and now he is like a sour-pus.
Florence : Let him be lar.

Me : Ok.

* Suddenly the Ah Pek nearly hit a car *

Me : Ok, this Ah Pek got a lot of problem
Florence : I better draw a sign and let him know.

* Ah Pek was driving faster and sped off into the busy street of SS2 *

Me : No need lar Low Poh, Ah Pek is gone. I wonder what is wrong with that Ah Pek?
Florence : Hahahahahaha… he is really a joker…

Ladies and gentlemen, always check your tyres before you drive. Have it pump for air and make sure there is no foreign object sticking to your tyres. Also ensure that your spare tyre is well pump and well taken care. Otherwise, you will end up like that Ah Pek driving with a flat tyre. By the way, if you had not change a tyre before you might want to consider taking one day to do it. At least, you will know what to do in case of emergency.

Drive well.

Is sky the limit…no, drives well and love your tyres.

Pemandu Teksi, Again

Again, this morning that incident happen again and the whole street had to wait for it. Yes, our pemandu teksi (taxi drivers).


This time it make me think whether our taxi stand is strategically located for customers to use. I just couldn't see the reason why customer won't go to that taxi stand and hail a taxi the correct way. Its just in front of them metres away (very nearby).


Also, why couldn't taxi drivers just advice the customer to go to a taxi stand nearby so they could conduct their deal safely? Just imagine the time taken to negotiate and getting in the taxi while the whole wide world for these two gentlemen! So inconsiderate!


All these nonsense and dangers of stopping in the middle of the road to pick a customer or customer hailing a cab when there is taxi stand nearby is really seriously hogging and jamming the traffic. Imagine 4 cars in front had to stop for it to get customer and another 5 or more cars behind him stop.


Should we blame:
1. The municipals or developers for not strategically locating the taxi stand?
2. The customer who does not know where to hail a taxi properly?
3. The taxi driver themselves who stop dangerously at anywhere to get customer?

4. Ourselves for our "tidak-apa" (nevermind) culture?

is sky the limit... why?

Gas Price Increase, my fried egg's price also increase!

Evening yesterday in a restaurant:


Me : Give me two plates of fried pork with tomato sauce rice (kou lou yuk fan), add fried eggs ok?
Si Tau Poh (the restaurant owner's wife) : Both?


Me : Yes and make it 100% fried.
Si Tau Poh : Ok.


* After 15 minutes waited, she came with our order *
Si Tau Poh : That will be RM10.50. Those fried eggs cost each RM0.70. Gas increase ok?


Me : * looked at both fried eggs * ... o_O"
Florence : Oi, pay lar...


Me : * grumble grumble - paid the lady boss *
Si Tau Poh : sorry sorry... * Quickly leave our table *


* fui fui hei hei (dreadfully) eat my lunch with a blackened face *



is sky the limit... what else is increasing?!
