Was Florida, Now Copenhagen, then where?

Busy, that's all I can think about. I smell busy and hard time ahead. It's the 3rd day now since I messed up the robot. Just imagine connecting a 24VDC to a 415VAC supply.....what gonna happene? Kaboom! Spark everywhere! Yeah...I fried the robot brain, now the heart stop and it got a fried brian. These few days we trying to bring the robot back to live. Been trying a lot of emergency rescue, feed him with special medicine called Fuse... 10A, 7.5A .but still in vain. Robot is our business, no robot = no business. What are the next step? Well I try to pump in new heart for the robot, still no respond.. The only thing we can do now is flying the damaged organ directly from Sweden and expert robot surgeon to the rescue. This takes a few week.

Beside the robot, other pieces of shit coming up one by one. Mid of next month, destination Copenhagen, Denmark for 2009 product training. Just came back from Florida, United States. I have to cope with these robotic corpse. Another two weeks time I will be in JB when we successfully bring back the robot to live.

All these are really pain in the arse... Lesson learned - check your circuit before you push the on buttons and don't trust the technician. If they are smarter than you, they already be in your position.

Ranting, yet still have to work...

Bradenton, Florida, United States

Known as sunshine states in the land of free - United States. Weather are all time cool and warm. Lots of nice beaches and bitches. Lots of rich asshole stay here... Stay tunes for photo. P/S Tonight I going to HOOTERS

Some Updates and my gorrilapod

March was a busy month for me and and the end of first quarter for year 2008. Time flies by. There is a lot to do. I was busy preparing my interview for my United States VISA which has been approved. I was lucky to get 10 years multiple entry VISA. Husqvarna Asian Technical Conference was over and it was a great experience to held and organize such a an event in the company I work for. Tired but yet get to eat a lot of superb food.

I expect my friend to bring back my iPhone from U.S. and I have no time to go back Penang to get my new iPhone. Anyhow, 6 pcs of iPhone in my shopping list for my upcoming trip to Bradenton, Florida, United States. I don't know how to bring it back.

Last Sunday, went to Pudu Plaza for Clicque photo fair organized by YL Camera and Futuromic. Mostly Nikon, Tamron, Jenova, Ricoh and Joby product. I am a Canon user. The Joby Gorrilapod caught my attention. This is the tools you need when you travel a lot and bringing tripod (even if it is a carbon fiber) is very very messy. Just imagine you have to gone through immigration checking and check in luggage. I got myself a Gorrilapod SLR Zoom. The biggest brother in it's range. Can support to a maximum of 3kg (A 70-200 F2.8L IS and 1Ds Mark III)and include 3/4 thread to mount tripod head. Damaged cost - RM159. I think it is fairly priced and a very very useful item for traveler.




From my past experience, it like an idiot carrying a Manfrotto 099ProB with K2 Benro Ball head walking around in Europe. The tripod itself with head already near to 5kg! So this is the best tools so far. Easy and fast to set-up anywhere, any surface condition.

Today the first day of April. It is April Fools, but can't fool around. I have list of to-do things before I depart to the states. Still busy as usual.

How nice would it be if there's 48 hours in a day... Are day dreaming again...

A week after Malaysia General Election 2008

A week has passed after Political Tsunami hit Malaysia one week ago. A lot of issue steered up during the announcement of the result for the general election. I don't wanna talk about which party wins, lose or take over which state. The heated topic among Malaysian now.

From my point of view, I agree with a statement commented by our ex-prime minister - Dr M "...UMNO is paralyzed now...". For your info UMNO stands for United Malays Nation Organization. As far as I can see... UMNO are getting more "KIASU" now. (KIASU = scare lose / takut kalah). They are becoming like Singaporeans. Most of them are KIASU. To prove that they are KIASU, they held a demostration in front of KOMTAR building in Penang. You can see it here and here. Bahasa Melayu version here.

When the were in winning side, what they do? They sprayed water cannon and engage tear gas to the demonstrator. But when things turn other way round, they just held the demo without any water cannon or tear gas sprayed at them? What kind of rules is that? UMNO is paralyzed..and I should call them barbarian instead of human. Why? They don't deserve to be called human as simple as that. You can ask any Malaysian, what they think of UMNO? I can be assure that most of Malaysian call the UMNO member barbarian.

The Penang Chief Minister have not make any statement regarding the policy of the new government the UMNO Penang already demonstrated their anger and dissatisfaction in front of KOMTAR. Unless they hired a highly skilled master bomoh to predict what the current CM of Penang going to say or execute.

Check out the UMNO demontration video in Penang below:

and...more...try to google it.

As a citizen of Malaysia. I can just wish all the people of Malaysia good luck for new government.

Will there be changes? Change for good? or change for worst?

Vote wisely! Use your wisdom...

心情俱乐部

“昨天，我因为要解决在我心里藏了一年的心事就回到了我的家乡。

我约了她晚上七点钟。我因为要更了解她及得到她的答案，就抱着很大的心情及希望，很想去见她。

到底为了什么呢、、、
事情就在两个星期前的一个星期五晚上。我不知为什么鼓起勇气，就发送了一篇短讯给她。向她表白我对她心里的感觉希望她给我们一个机会。我等了两个小时，她才回答我的短讯。那时的心情很轻张，就像在生死的尾端。她既然问我是不是情人节的短讯？我回复她，“是真的，我希望您可以给我和你一个机会、、、”。她说，“看到了你的短讯，很可怕、、、”。我与她，那晚回复了几封短讯后，最后我还是让她时间考虑。

回到昨天，我约她吃晚餐。载了她，就有说有笑。当她一上车，感觉很奇怪，她更我在msn所谈的一切都相反。她给我有一种很保护自己的感觉。以她的身体语言，我猜她应该是在避开我吧！

路途中，我们的话题根本都没有提到感情及msn所谈的一切。我想她应该很害羞或逃避我吧。

她带我到一档很出名的云吞面。吃了晚餐后，她就要回家去了。

在回家的路途中，我在忍不住，就开口问她的感觉如何？她既然跟我说：“感觉像一般朋友一样”。我听了，我的心就向在很高很高的地方，以9.80M/s的速度向下冲，撞到地球表面，啐到向一盘散沙。整个地上都就有我的碎心。

为什么？我自己也不明白。我已经努力和努力的去追，还是不够好。看来我还要在检讨我自己。

我答应她，不论如何我们还是一个很好的知己。我们都明白，如果一切有任何问题，我们还是知己。

我不想给自己任何接口，因为接口只是包庇了我的本性。看来我因该加油向我的事业大发展！

过了，一切都过了，向前走吧。虽然失望，可是终于把我心中的事解决了。我们依然还是知己。所谓：“前事不忘，后事之师”。

这个故事告诉我们做人要脚踏实地，井井有条，前事不忘，后事之师，失败是成功之母。

UNITEN Corporate Anthem....WTH!!?

I can't believe it. My ex University have their very own anthem. Unfortunately I personally still think NegaraKu (Malaysian National Anthem) still the best to listen compared to this... Sigh ... UNITEN produce such a corporate anthem..

I doubt this is another el-cheapo production from the Dean. I wonder whose idea is this to produce such a lousy corporate anthem...

Quote for Chinese New Year

猪母酸 - Tu Bor Sui (Octopus + Fish Cake Dish)

Got a call from my old friend to join them for some yum cha session today.Feeling not enough after had a piece of McDonalds Prosperity Beef foldover (I can't imagine I come all the way back to Butterworth to eat McDonalds!), I decided to go for another round of food with them.

We decided to go to the famous Tu Bor Sui stall in Bagan Ajam. The stall is located just beside the newly renovated Rex theatre in Jalan Bagan Ajam.

猪母酸 or Tu Bor Sui (in Hokkien) is a delicious delicacy among the local here. Tu Bor Sui dish contain white small octopus, with some fish cake and garlic oil. The preparation of this dish is simple, the octopus are streamed and soak in garlic oil together with fish cake. Best served with chilli sauce with ground nut.

I had ordered two big plate of Tu Bor Sui. As far as I know,when the dish is served on the table, we finish it in less than 5 minutes. It was so delicious, a little salty and juicy.

A little history on this stall. This stall started the business as early when I was in primary school (maybe earlier, I don't really remember well). This stall not only famous for Tu Bor Sui, but also the Char Koay Teow and Barley ice drink. The business hour for this stall from 9.30pm till sold out. They don't do business in the day time, only in night time. Some people from penang island and as far as Simpang Ampat come all the way here just to have their famous Tu Bor Sui. I don't know if other places do sell this Tu Bor Sui dishes, cause I can't find any of them in the island. Even the islander also don't know this type of dish exist.

Normally we had a plate of Char Koay Teow together with the Tu Bor Sui. We just had our dinner, therefore we only order two big plate of Tu Bor Sui and two plate of Char Koay Teow to share among four of us. Price wise, I can say it's darn cheap imagine 2 big plate of Tu Bor Sui for 5 people serving, 2 plate of Char Koay Teow, 5 barley and 1 Kikapoo drink only cost us Rm35.00.

I highly recommend this stall, if you love to try the dishes. The quality and taste of the food is just superb.

After we finish our Tu Bor Sui dishes, we continue to Salam Mamak for second round of drink...

:-)

Coming soon - Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year is around the corner. Less than a week... When I was a little young boy, Chinese New Year celebration is one of the happiest moment I love. It was like my childhood dream for Chinese New Year. I love it not only because I can get fat and big ang pow, but also get to have fun with my cousin fired up the firecrackers...These was my childhood memory...

Today, it is just barely one week before the Chinese New Year. There is no more the 'feel' of Chinese New Year like how it suppose to be in the old days. The decoration in shopping mall were only so so.. Fireworks is strictly banned, thanks to the government. What more left to celebrate?...

I did a big mistake yesterday to get my hair cut. It was bad, very very very bad. Awww... it's freaking fugly. I ain't going back to the salon again. The worst thing is I pay 20 bucks for this bad hair cut. I can get a decent haircut at any express cut salon in the shopping centre and the charges are much more cheaper. Damn it! But, let's see the other side of it, hopefully my bad hair cut will turn good luck and prosperous new year for me.

My secondary school grand reunion dinner going to be held at a famous hotel ballroom on 3rd day of Chinese New Year. There' s a lot need to be prepare. I have tons of slideshow yet to be completed for the reunion dinner. On top of that, I still have a few hundred of RAW photo to be process..

Another part is to arrange a meet up with bunch of old friend and junkies. I can say almost every Chinese New Year holiday, I won't be sitting at home. I will be out in the early morning and come back late at night. Everyday without fail...

Looks like my CNY holiday are busier than my working life....sigh

List of things need to get it done before I balik kampung...
1. Spring cleaning my room(I am expected to clean up 5% of my room)
2. Prepare and pack my gear and stuff to bring back(laptops, cameras, clothes, gadgets.. etc...)
3. Top up my Touch N Go card - I don't wanna stuck in the fucking jam.
4. Shop for my CNY clothes and get some CNY stuff back home.

List of things need to do when I get back home. ( I am lazy to list it out, there's at least more than 100 list of thing need to do).

Last .. wish you all have a wonderful holiday beside Chinese. As for Chinese and who are celebrathing Chinese New Year, Gong Xi Fat Cai and ang pow mali!

The end of my CompactDrive PD70x Portable Storage Device

Being an idiot again. Forgetful me leave 4 pieces of AA sized Duracell alkaline battery inside my Compact Drive PD70X Portable Storage Device for more than 6 month! Until today, it just come across my mind try to open up the battery bay and check if there is any battery there.

My intuition is true, when I saw the battery inside the battery bay with some slimy and blueish alkaline chemical dripping out. Arggh...immediately I knew that it was the end of day for my PD70x.

Not satisfied, I crack open up my PD70. I found that the alkaline chemical already gone into the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) mainboard of PD70X. The resin on the board started to popped out and peeled off. I can't even clean the board because the alkaline chemical is everywhere. You can see blueish chemical on the board. I can't imagine how can I so forget to remove the battery from the device.

All I can say is SHIT....

Lesson learned:

NEVER EVER LEAVE ANY KIND OF BATTERY INSIDE YOUR ELECTRONIC DEVICES FOR LONG PERIOD OF TIME

Result:

MANAGE TO SALVAGE MY HARD DISK, PRICELESS!

p/s: Time to scout for Epson P3000, there goes my hard earned cash!

The Fart Story

Got this from SMS:

Somebody farted during the Royal Comission Inquiry...

Inquiry office asked Tengku Adnan first: "Did you fart?"
Adnan replied: "You must be mad..."

Office then asked Dr M: "Did you fart?"
Dr M replied: "I don't remember. Anyway it's my prerogative to fart. I don't have to tell anyone.

Officer also ask Eusoff Chin the same question.
He replied: "If someone attribute it to me, I cannot prevent him."

Finally, officer asked V K Lingam:" Did you fart?"
Lingam replied: "Sounds and smells like mine.... but it's not mine!"
