Sunday Matinee..

I just came back from Selayang. My floor has a new tenant coming in..and I am moving up to the 3rd floor soon. I will shift some of my "aging" operation back home. First, the pc and my Altec Lansing is back. Yeah..music time! How about that?

I used to camplain about my room being too big after the renovation. Now apparently its the other way round! I need a bigger room!!

I was roaming with Andy at IKEA yesterday.. I need some input. Now i need to get out some of the rubbish in my room.. most to be precise... Now the list could go one of what could be an important changes in my room.. When could I get it done? Maybe after Chinese New Year Perhaps..

Tribute to Alexandra Boulat

* An afghans child was cold to death..Preparing for his burial..
*One of the many astonishing shots by Alexandra Boulat. A women from Aghanistan that able to cross Pakistan for refuge and stayed in a small hut... Later she was asked to leave for her safety.

Alexandra Boulat passed away on October 5th in a hospital in Paris. Her lost was felt and a great loss to the world of photojournalism.. The serbs, middle east,afghan..and her latter year in Israel- Palestinian conflict saw a great outcry in her photos. There are many photojournalists from world reknown agency that covers story and amazing photography. Alexandra Boulat has her own authentic facet. She could gv us a picture that tell blasphemy, sacarsism, anxiety and denial ... junks of emotions in a simple shots of the moments. The most beautiful about her photos is that it didn't leave a sign of awe.. but that utmost simplicity of uplifting pictures has its tale that via communicate within the soul of the shooter is what negotiate that precious essence of her nature of photography. A pictures tells a thousands words... for her it is just a chain of wave of words...


I shall not concur more but leave it for you to decide..

BBQ nite and little surprise in the morning..

surprises...who would not like them? I had one today and it is not particularly cheerful. TNT was delayed and I need all the accessories to be sent out ASA. The software was not in place! The cleaning solution tadak..The frame less by half. I was beginning to be very concern... Went thru lotsa stage ..call to Jerry and Bambu TNT and of all the heck in the world... finally... Estelle who is responsible for it all email to us.. I just open the mail and 4am and really to my relieve..Now! The problem is..when will I get the software...sigh..what a mess... Any blessing in disguise...doesnt seems like it.



This is our virgin BBQ in Shiong Soon house. The family has gone for a holiday. The cats are gone..and the mice is out to party..yeah... well, it was not a big crowd actually. But it was kinda fun too.

Of course every BBQ has its interesting tales which evolve around the BBQ and people story. The best part about the BBQ is of course the chicken wings. The chickens has survive and graduated to become great grandparents before it was slaughtered and become our food which of course are the wings. Not to mention about eating them, tearing them apart was worst then Romeo and Juliet.. Shiong Soon sure engage in kiasu mode when during the purchase and the seller at Giant engage in deceiving mode. There are few pieces of leftover.. I threw it to the next doors' dogs...even this carnivorous beast take a long time to chew off the
meat.... What it is capable of dangling in your stomach for days dude.

Spencer, a fren of Shiong Soon was really famliar...Dejavu..later I found out that he actually was the casting manager for the Petronas ad during this year Sepang race. Yea..he did cast me that day.. What a small world after all... Aahaha...

Now, Mr CSS was kind enought to take me for a spin in his brother EVOLUTION 8. We had two rounds around the highway. This is my first time ever riding in an EVO... People were actually staring at us... The gear blowoff was damn impressive. Cornering melekat tar road kaw kaw punya! The pickup...mou tak teng!! Hellavu ride!!

Poison...poison...poison!!!!

* Minolta 80mm-200mm f2.8 High Speed AF APO lens

This bloody lens KEEP me awake the whole night till morning... it was really damn poisoning! Current bid stand at USD631. Drooling all the way babe..Four more days to go!! I really hope I can get my hand on this one. Looks like chances is thinning now since Chan could get his car soon and I might have to cough out a decent amount money to get his car. Sigh... what should I do?


Mum woke me up early in the morning and wanted to go Tawakal. She was her own physician for the past few days and she paid dearly for it. Sigh..hope she will really listen to doctor now.

When I got back...dad was at home. That was really surprising..hmmm...will mum really forgive him.. I just has to watch from a distant.

Ponder upon 2007

The year is coming to an end soon. Even some cafe I been to has been putting on Christmas songs! What a world of people that trying to move ahead of time. We are suppose to live every now and then.. as a balance to your time and things that you do... What has time year mean to you. For myself this year was a separate piece of undistinguished works. What a shame!

However, I am going to pledge to make this last two months better. Counting the time and indeed I will keep a journal of what I could achieve in this coming two months. Therefore I WILL by heaven and earth ; post the grandeur achievements by 31st December 2007 of what I had make out if this November and December... Counting blessing? or pure energy to keep me focus? The latter has to be the priority and attitude to keeps me ahead.

It would be good now that the company is starting to play badminton every Tues and Friday. I would want to be a part of this again. It's fun to play badminton.. when was the last time you ever cast your stick on that. Hitting the golf balls at the driving range is sacred as well. The sole pure indulgence of the yardstick of your foresee game in the actual field. Practise make perfect.

So guys , over this two months of period...Join me like the Heineiken rugby ad..lets move mountains and continents. Come on..lets rock the boat! See ya challenge for the next two months ahead and lets share what u r capable of achieve of...

Do one things that scared u today. The recent books that I read were Richard Branson Screw it, Let's do it expanded version and also John Naisbitt Mind Set! John is my favourite authors that tell us ahead of the next decade of prophesy in the real world. The ultimatum I would say. Get a copy I said should you want to get a clearer glimpse of the general things that is sweeping across the world. Worth a read...

I will be redundant for the next two weeks or so I guess. The routine of outstation will be creeping in again. Hope I could get some connection over the other side...

It's great to see KY is updating his blog and at an amazing frequency. Keep it up dude. The best parts it they even leave me some comments. There is even some flow of tots between the two in the comments. How sweet! Talking about couplehood. Women and their paranoia 101.. hmm.. does KY actually peep at other women..I dont know..KY...ahaha..sound like some kind of sexual enhancer...no wonder SS could have fall in love with him.....ekekek.. Anyway, thanks for the comment..It been ages since ppl drop any comments. Bloody stalkers..

KY and SS : You guys actually did come back yea.. You two probably should try to indulge a little little bit at the casino.. Just for the fun of it ler.. Post ler some photos or what.... SS..give lah some credits to ur hubby.. what could he actually see in Solomon island? Those thick lips locals.. ahahah.. Don't u look at handsome guy too..

Malaysia...un bolehland.. don't miss it!

Ok...time to shower now.

Uncle Lim and U..

Lim Goh Tong or better known as Uncle Lim as passed away yesterday morning at 11.20am. He lived to 90 years of age. That man has somehow has the guts and vision during his era. Like the Jews that believe the land of milk and honey ... he dare to take the hill as Tunku offered the casino licensing to those that dare to take the hill. A man that synomym to Genting and the sweat of his labour. This guy is definitely an oppportunist and as true is it u dont get rich solving problem but seizing the opportunity.

He has a little of pieces in our life. Well, all reknown man either make u mad, sad or glad. Apparently as amazing as it is, he has capable to leave us all this 3 elements behind. What has he meant to u as an indirect approach of course. Speaking of Genting, as those of in their 30's of age now should recall several nostalgic story in Genting.

One of my best took childhood picture happen to be in Genting. Damn, where has that picture gone to? Some of the best memories and could recall memories was also Genting. I remembered when we were small, going to Genting was a big hu-ha!!

1 - 5 Years old...
I recall then there were this hot water based indoor swimming pool. I dont know whether it is still functioning or not but that is something that is really still fresh in my memories.

5 - 18 Years of age...
Well, of course parents and relatives have a hang out there at the casino. I only recall the theme park which there is this new antique car which we could finally drive as a children. Then the paddle boat and also the sampan...which also leads to the shark mouth.. High school day.. Ria Apartment and its nostalgic spooky story and all students holiday loitering around...

19 - 20s
Before my dating time, I used to drive Kancil and go up Genting with by close buddies. We would somehow sneak into the staff to makan. Surprisingly good food and fair price. We would go on fri or sat nite to go up there to makan angin. Lepaking and foot reflexology at the Park is fun too. It only took us 45 mins or less to go up Genting.. I recalled and incident where I almost go into an accident and I managed to curb it away..There is three cars sandwiches in front..Bless them..it was at the old turning up the hill after the tunnel. That night also... 3 of us have to "carried" out our kancil due to some car blocking. Wonder how we did it that time with 3 young blood doing the miracles.

20s - late 20s
Dating is fun and going up there to makan angin was rather cool at night. Miss those old time.. though I am now still ...alone... ahaha.. We would drive up in the middle of the night and lepak there. I still remembered one afternoon where i hold up my ex and those monkeys on the monorail actually spotted us.. and shouting at us.. Ahahah... and the haunted house. hmmmm...well, lets not indulge in it anymore.

Late 20s - till now
Being singlehood for the pass years.. going up Genting was just for starbucking and coffee beaning and surfing... it was really chatting for few hours and making it back to KL. Beside that, casino was part of the event. I am no gambler and find no thrill. The most is lost some 5 - 20 bucks as donation. Just tagging along ler... seeing frens in action.

a Fresh recall...
On 5th December 1999, I was rather depressed that my ex was far from what I could achieve. I get Alan along and we set up on a journey up to Genting on foot from the McD at the foothill. It was a long journey and from Awana onwards was really a tormenting one. We made it up there...There are some good samaritans that offered us a ride...I remembered this family with a kids of 3 in their 4 wheels really offered us.... Anyway, we were dead tired and silent... had the mix rice and skip the plan of walking back down. Took the bus at 2pm and get our car and straight home. This is an unforgettable event..

Back to work..

The mood of working gotta creep in back again. At last, one week Raya celebration was over.

NoThing much to blog about except going back to work.

However, it is good to know that my friends in Solomon Island is still alive and kickin'. Thought he was slaughtered by some !W$#$# during the political riot. Kong Yew has been my primary school classmate. Been knowing him for sometime... the mastermind really are gifted in picking up language. Even teachers has to sought him for answer for English language. Some people are just born with it and also thank God their parent cultivate them from young.

Well, everyone live a different life. You could check out his blog at http://www.calltoreason.org It was defunct for a while which lead to me thinking he could had kick the bucket. Anyway, glad to know that he has been consistently updating his blog now. Perhaps you should update some of ur current affair too. Come on..though u are a private person. Lets share something to cheer or applaud about...

Play play shake with Kow Wong Yeh

I was hanging out in Quan again. Alone and this time there is not ppl chimneying around at the smoking section and I do breath easy. Just miss the highspeed of broadband ler.

Popeye and Olive decided to grant their obligation at Kow Wong Yeh. So they picked me up at 10 plus from Quan. This year no camera.... Time does flies..it was another year since the last shot. I remember my a100 SMELL of jossstick for a week. What the heck! Well it just so coincidence this is an impromptu event and I don't have my Alpha with me. Else I won't mind shooting again. Popeye and Olive has to fulfil their mouth exercise and bought the chow tou fu ; lepaking at one of the vegetarian stall we were. We had nice plate of vegan ducks and blah blah ice kacang. Then they proceed to fulfilling obligation. For the fun of it and wish Seong Soon was here also to play with the "chim". I had nothing to shoot this year and I join the parade to get my "chim". So this is number 44. Sound not a good stuff eiii...

There are a bunch of "elders" at their service with a nominal charge of RM2.oo to explain ur token of prophesy. I suppose to play with another red banana split into thing thingy to confirm my "chim" is designated to me. Oh..that was fun... U know I always score 95% at least that the answer is always yes.. The deity even gv me the positive answer or perhaps my physics law of hand in motion has always been ascustom to such that the momentum x angle x $##W x = half banana up and half banana down. That I couldn't care less.

So what did I ask.. it is my about my love life.. The deity is very the "chun" @ hokkien , right to the dot.. I do not know whether the interpreter pull fast one just to make me happy or not but if he is true..there is some elements of truth in it. We will wait and see. And perhaps my spirit will waver again and well too early to tell.

Heretic or not is up to your own discreet. Have you got something to seek about ur fortune or other aspect on life? go to askmen.com

Ahahaha..

hEllo bolehland

THIS is suppose to be updated on 14/10/07..heck with EDGE..

I suppose to lay my word two days ago on this one. It was however due to my network or my modem problem that I could not get online.

First, a word to all my readers, should some stuff in my blog that you wish to cross reference and it is up to my freewill to do so else I would respond in the manner of discreet which I would like to keep it to myself. If you cannot get accustom to that, perhaps you could surf elsewhere with all due respect.

Grandpa
It was an hour sleep on Friday morning after hanging out with Lam, Jeremy n Ho. It was an hour sleep which I had to pay dearly for this past two days. I managed to make it to the graveyard and everyone was there except my father and the other uncle. The usual suspects are there and being 6am in the graveyard was indeed not a everyday routine.

We had breakfast after that. I am not such a conversant type hanging around my family. Usually my uncles and aunties are the ice breaker. This time the story recite much about my trip to Japan. I am truly for this family even we don’t meet often but the bond is still there as before. Hope it will be that way for a very long time. Truly I am indebted to them and hope someday I could repay them. They also hope that I would excel someday and this I had fail them much. I think there is still time to make up to it. I will make it right. My youngest aunt had a new set of hairstyle and his husband which is also indeed happy as I see it. I am glad that they are happy in their marriage. Hope the phrase it runs in the family will always be kept alive.

Past memories
It was disgusting and frustrating. I woke up wanted to kill myself yesterday morning. Damn it…for a moment after a long while which you thought it suppose to be over and yet it come back to haunt you. Do I really need to find a replacement to make this dream goes away? Alas, what could it be? It has been almost more than 3 years now.. The equation is almost reach it capacity soon. I thought I need to seek dream master to let me comprehend beyond what is not I am capable of comprehending. It has to be some hidden message. Perhaps fate will lead me to meet such person to further my understanding. By all mean, get out of my dream… Should you have something in mind, reach to my channel. You know what number to dial.

The Bourne Ultimatum
It is Jason Bourne. His real name is David Webb. Truly amazing piece of camera works and wish someday I could be in this kinda movie or advertisement. I am working towards preparing myself for some surprises. Perhaps a newly targeted 3 ad will be fine. It is in my passion and my flood to be able to identify in such scene. It is just that simple.

Go watch this movie. The biggest screen you could get. I thought I would wanna watch the first and second series again before jumping into this third sequal. Temptation leads and I follow. After sending off some urgent goods to the bus station. I make my way to the cinema and I swipe my card with still a decent of balance in it. Prepaid system does bring some sort of cheers to you beside the extra 1 buck discount.

Awesome piece of shit! Yes.. you would love the camera works and what is orchestrated is simply superb. The cars chase and building chase around thingy. Yes, you know what kinda shit that the hellavu wonderful people had put to in together to get this to the screen. Pure nuts with no C.G… Jackie Chan should put some attention to this details to should he wants to resurrect his power play in the scene again. I hope to read the next two novels soon of the prequel and hopefully it will be a perfect 5 should the reels would wanna rolls again. Movie of those of 3’s Bourne are those movies that has the story that speak for itself and chances to win itself a piece of awards could hardly happen. There are many such films that boiled into us the passion of movies making and yet cause you to subliminally echo an eternal praise! Bravo..

A little note for Su..

Ah Su,

It's a little funny,
This feeling inside,
not those that can easily hide,
It's like a travelling snow,
Soup up in pure white glow...

Mercy,
I was looking yonder to chat,
but you were sailing far across the ocean chest,
what a zest,
How I wonder you are those fly by night,
My hope fade into the winter fuzzy snow,
This is another blow,
Nothing show...

Till I am away to the land of the rising sun,
I set path and could never see glance again...
There is no roulette in the gun,
It's just one simple bullets of filthy gain,
end the misery of silence awkard vivid thought that come undone,

Alas,
It's all gone ;
It's all over ,
All Alone ;
Went undercover ?

Alas , Alas, Alas,
There you were ;
Toss the world,
My world of sweetness joy leap and bound,
Moonriver,
Fly me to the moon,
There you are and were ;
But you never know,
I could never show,

Time will tell..
Perhaps someday will come,
Say that something,
Out of nothing?
I wanna hold your hand? :P

I can't hide..
Just turn it aside..

aGain..agAin..it is just this feeling inside,
yes , this feeling inside..

Sleep well my dear..

Mix emotion... I do not know what to feel now..

I SUPPOSE to be in my bed sleeping now and still I do not know what to feel. It is really heavy on my heart and I am sad and tonnes of things gone through my head...

I just came back few hours ago from KLIA. I was away to Japan for training and more update later...

Mum broke me a tormenting and horrible news. I just turn totally bizarre. Grandpa passed away last Friday. He was buried this morning. Gosh... I was on the way to Narita Airport then..

I still can't get over this..

I was thinking when I am back from Japan. I want to make a point to see my grandpa every Saturday. That could not happen and couple with some procrastination ; I felt guilty. I am tired from the long journey home. News that broke out of a sudden like this put me in great distress. I felt helpless now.

I wanted to cry but I just can't accept the fact yet that he is gone. What has gone wrong?

I still remembered grandpa used to bring me for breakfast downtown when I was small.

I need to be alone now.
