I'm so tired now. But I can't sleep yet...My bro is reaching soon. I want to borak with him. There's nothing he can go back in Singapore, cos there's some problem with his package and Visa. So he decided to come back for the CNY. Weeee!

Another bad day today. (Some more those chinese horoscope said 'pigs' are lucky this month, my days have been very 'cheh') I woke up kind of early cos i planned to go to college to collect my reserved books and print tons of stuff. But got delayed a bit cos have to do house work. By the time i finish the sky was very dark outside. So i hurried into the car. Then on the way to APIIT it started to drizzle. I don't know where to park in TPM some more. All no shade. I don't mind the slight drizzel. But if i were to stay longer in APIIT, i'm affraid i won't be able to get out in time to pick my sis. So i just parked up front and told the guard that i will only take a while. Went to take my books only. Didn't have time to get my stuff printed.

I went to Giant after that to do some junkfood shopping. Guess who i bumped into?.....heheh my mom! It's kind of weird bumping into her there. When i went to the cashier, i dumped my junks there, then my mom put her stuff there. The cashier got kind of confused. LOL! You see, i was wearing APIIT's (work clothes) clothes, then my mom was wearing work clothes too. So we kind of looked like 2 diff customers. ...OK i don't think i'm describing the scenario right. But you get it rite? Anyways, my mom paid for my junks! Muahahaha <--hehehe ok i got lucky there

I went home after that. 1pm. Time for Oprah Show. Watch a bit then left to pick my sis. I want to let my sis try the Chicken Maryland dish in the corner coffee shop near the old Lim Kok Wing building. But it was closed =( hais. Went to eat vegetarian mixed rice after all. No much choices left cos it was already past 2.

Dropped my sis back, then i left for my uncle's place. Become part-time PC technician again. When i reached there it was raining cats and dogs! Don't know what is wrong with the pc. I went home again (still raining) to get my harddisk. Then back to my uncle's place. Still cannot work. I checked the harddisk, the RAM and the video card. Same problem. 3 long beebs when i boot the pc up. The 3 long beebs stands for something...but i forgot what's stands for. Anyone can remember? It's the video card rite? I tried to unplug and replug the card but its still not working. I tried not using the video card also not working. Could it be the motherboard problem? ...i have the semangat to fix that pc...wanted to bring it back home...but arghhh...have to studyyy. The pc is a distraction. (My uncle said if i can't fix that pc, he will buy a new one, then i think i get to keep his pc! Muahahahah hohoho yes please. I'm recommending him to get a Dell pc, cos i heard that the after sales service is good. So if anything gets screwed again, he has Dell)

OT incourse results came out already. I got a 2-1 (second upper). Jin got a 1(1st class)! WooHoo! She's the woman! Only 4 people in the whole GF03A1 intake (thats like 167 people) got a 1!

My mom just came back a while ago from Singapore. She said my bro's fight is delayed cos there's some delay in the Visa thingy. No fix dates....arghh i'm so sick of dates!

Anyways, i was suppose to study just now. But heheheheh...Kun came over to pass me stuff. But we ended up in Ming Tien to eat. Quilan, Kun's friend from OZ was there too. After dinenr/supper Crabman joined us at 7-11 to grab a few drinks before we hit the park behind my place to blast some firecrackers.

We kind of like played with the firecrackers for about 5 to 10 minuites only. It was about 11.30...one of the aunty of one of the houses was waiting for someone...but when we played she talked very loudly to her whoever "HAIYOR! So noisy! These people dont know how to play some where else. Play at peoples house! blablablabla". Seriously la, people have been playing firecrackers everyday since the CNY at 12++ and noone is complaining. And that aunty is making such a big fuss just because she happen to be in front of the park at that moment. Ok, she has the right to be pissed at us...but then again, when she complained and complained we were play noiceless firecrackers already. I think at that moment her voice was as loud as the firecrackers and i think she could have woken up everyone else! We just left the park and back to my place cos the aunty was still blablablabla...goshh..cant she shut up already?!! I a bit no mood already...have to hide from her somemore cos i just live so near her. Ish. The guys then crashed at my place for abit...finished our drinks...chat a bit..surf a bit...Quilan helped me with my questionaire! Weee! ...then they left.

..oh yeah...i woke up early today to hit the library. I drove to the MPPJ library ...just to find it closed! Arghhh. Its seems that they only open at 2pm on Mondays. I drove back home...then back to the library again at 2. Couldn't get anything done cos I had to go pick my sis up from school after that. Wasted a day.

I have to really focus. No more going out. No more having fun. I've got to study!!

Saturday, January 24, 2004

I'm back already. Yes...quick isn't it. Me and my family don't usually come back before 'chor sei' (thats the 4th day of the Chinese New Year) Lots of unexpected stuff happened. Sucks. Will post the pics later...maybe tomorrow when i have the time.

FYP status: Very worried about FYP, but can't work my lazy arse to make some progress...CNY oso..so...aiyah...forget it la.

I hurt my back of my right shoulder a few days back...have not really healed from it yet. It got worst today after my dance class. I thought it was ok to dance, cos you know..its not like i'm going to do hand stands or something, its just normal social dancing. But i was wrong. The turns hurt my shoulder a lot. I can actually feel the pain a bit, but i didnt care cos we did a little of Disco Rock today!!! WooHoo!! I so so miss Disco Rock!!! I still can remember back when i first learnt that dance in Sunway i had a lot of fun dancing it. All i had to do is learn the basic and i could do a lot variation with James. James was this elderly man who was always hanging out at the dance studio. He was a great partner. ..Ahhh i miss dancing with him.

My shoulder hurts like hell now. Everytime i turn my head to the left i feel the pulling of the veins. If it still hurts like mad tomorrow i think i better visit the physiotherapist tomorrow. I kind of planned to go to college tomorrow too, i guess i wont be going. Also feel kind of sad cos today was my last class. Cos Chnoong going back to OZ next month...i wont have a partner to dance with...=(

Didnt have the energy to work on FYP ...so i watched My Sassy Girl again. Cried la. Hehehe. Touchy ma. The first time i watched that show was quite long ago. Without subtitles and they were speaking Korean! At least now i have english subtitles and the voice are dubbed over using mandrine. So, i now know whats going on in the show. Hehehe.

HCI tips Use at your own risk.
My HCI research paper on 'Design of Usable Web Pages'. (Right click and Save Target As) Might help in your HCI exams and FYP.

My system keep overheating yesterday. Scary. I then took the vacume cleaner and vacumed my whole cpu. The fan and heat sink was covered with dust. (Hais...cant leave my casing open already, killing the cpu) The dust collected is blocking all the air and stuff. My harddisk is going to die soon also. Everytime i boot my pc there will this 'ka ching, ka ching' sound. Sounds like some loose spring. I'm very worried about my pc condition now. Even more worried about 'what is my pc overheat and fry?' or 'what is my harddisk crash or fail to boot?' Dont have the $$ for a new harddisk yet...must wait till after CNY hahaha. Or i always can stick to plan B...swap pc with my sis muahahhaha. All she does is wack machine (if you know what i mean hahaha) all day with it.

Its Saturday..but im not in singapore...but confirm going down on the 28th. Bro's flight is confirmed already i think. Lucky its during study break, so i'll be able to go too.

Quite lazy to make an entry today. But i was reading Jin's blog, ah her entry touched me...hehehe she my buddy man. Dunno why i feel that way. Some might feel that its just a normal entry, but for me its not. Me oso wanna say thanks to everyone who responded to that Mon 12 Jan post, esp Alwin. But you all got it all wrong ler. I wasn't upset or sad or anything. I just tot it would be fun for readers to read. At least Asrar did hehehe i think.

Anyways, since i'm here, i'll update. I might be going down to Singapore for the weekend. Nope. Not sending my bro off yet. His package for this internship stuff still have not reach him. Damn long man. Some more his classes over in U.S. started this week liua. I think he's gonna miss a lot of classes.

I've downloaded skype, this kononnya good voip program to chat with my bro. Kind of sark cos it was laggy. Ended up using back MSN messenger to voice conference. Not bad. I can chat with my bro more often now. Yes yes, i get to listen to his voice. My dad said "wah nice. It's just like he is in the room with you" Hua hua hua got feellll.

Cina New Year comming soon. So ang pow mari $$$. Hua hua hua. But have to paksa myself to study cos exams are right after the $ collection season. Then FYP mid point interview after exam. My supervisor said "make sure you have all your primary and secondary research done by then". Apa! Lu cakap lawak ah?! Mana ada masa!?!! Seriously speaking, until now, i still dont know what primary and secondary research suppose to be. Check list for all APIIT FYPers below.

- Gantt chart
- Primary research
- Secondary research
- Analysis and Design (Show diagrams and stuff)
- Prototype of system (optional, but if you have time or kiasu hehehe)

Btw anyone who wanna swap HCI research paper with me ask me yah...i wanna swap.

I dedicate this entry to Anne Rice, my favorite author and Blood Canticle, her latest, and last book of the vampire chronicles.

It is sad that Blood Canticle will be her last vampire book. I have read many of her books. The vampire ones and the non vampire ones. All just too beautiful. When I read the article on her yesterday in TheStar I felt really really sad. There will be no more Lestat to read about, Lestat that loves New Orleans, no more beautiful Lestat, with his long black hair and pale face, dressed in a white satin silk shirt, long black velvet cloak and his fangs. No more Armand the theater vampire who fell in love with beautiful Lestat. No more Louis the most human vampire, and the one that escaped death David, David Talbot of the Talamasca. And Marius. Sad, so sad.

My latest friendster testimonial (which i find quite interesting and had me thinking...) Echo
------
*testimonial in Italics

RESEARCH PAPER ON CHIAN'S NEGATIVES
(1) Chian sometimes kinda sturborn, "love face", Eg, when i said "chian u need this", and she'll said "who need this anyway? who care~zzz~~?"
Yes i agree. I have this ego sometimes, ok maybe more than sometimes. But then who doesnt? If this is going thru your mind now 'aiyah, ego ma...thats why she say like that' then in my opinion i think you are in denial. Then again i think i often "love face" more infront crabman cos tok kok. But thats my opinion only.

(2) Chian will did something terrible once in a while, things that she never thought about it and she did it right away. "OPS, I, DID AGAIN~"
LOL this is very very true. But i dont do it on purpose most of the time. If really terpaksa then really too bad la. *grin* *bad bad*

(3) Chian breaks her curfew often, bad bad girl.
Guilty as charged. But at least i still try to come home early as possible. (Btw, i'm 20 already...how many 20 year olds do you know that still have a curfew?)

(4) She got lotta good frens, but lotta bad frens too.
I don't think this is something bad. I feel that everyone have (kononnya) good and bad friends.

(5) SOME PPL(NOT ME) think that she's scary, some msg sent to me by
ANONYMOUS_1 (a)"Because she can baboom very dangerous... that's why I always gotta watch what I say... mostly dun tok much one in front of her."
(b)"When it comes to relationship... I think her expectation very high lor..."
(c) Umm... and then perhaps she doesn't like people telling her her mistake? That one I kinda guess oni... not sure... but who does?". I agree with the C.

(a) HAHAHAHA serious mehhh. I think there was that one time only rite. Deep impact on anonymous 1 tho i didn't baboom him LOL! (b)Yes i agree. But there are other personal reasons why i'm not in a relationship. But i think anonymous 1 dont know me well enough to give his better judgement on this relationship topic thing. (c)Yes this i know. It's me and my ego. Something that i've been trying to change for a long time but hehehehe.

ANONYMOUS_2 said (a)"get piss quite ez." , YES! AGREE!
(b)"too serious in work" , YES YES YES I AGREE TOO!
(c)"not fat enough!" , cant blame her, right? it were her mom and dad's fault for not feeding her, beside, some ppls(me 2) dun like fat ppl.

(a and b)Yes i do get piss very easily when it comes to work. But if you were in a sinking ship won't you be angry because you are the only one pail'ing out water? I've got to be serious in work la (my resolution this year is to get a first class degree, so expect me to be even more kiasu and serious MUAHAHAHA) Anonymous 2 and me have very different expections in work and life. So in my point of view...no i'm not too serious in work. As for the writer of this testimonial, eh you have been there before, have you forgotten? (c) Yes cannot blame me, but its not my parents fault either. I eat enough, i just dont get fat in visible areas. I don't think being 'not fat enough' is a negative thing. I mean everyone have their own perspective on the fattyness issue. But then if i'm anorexic or bulimic then thats a whole different case by itself.

Didnt take long to realise who the anonymous people are. *6th sense (konon hehehe)* Hais ..tak syok. I've actually heard all the above comments before from themselves before this research paper came out. Had fun making this entry tho.
--------

Now back to serious stuff. I might not be able to send my bro off to US! =( He's flight might be this comming Thursday, but i have a 2 in 1 presentation on Thursday! I don't think i can skip that. Sad la. Hopefully his package comes early or later. If his flight falls on Friday or Saturday, i think i will not be attending the APIIT Cyber Games already =(

My FYP progress is like dog poo. It's kind of hard to draw a class diagram without knowing what PHP can or cannot do. So i've got to really read up and put my hands on it. Arghh. Sucks. FYP Mid-point presentation is very some more. Aiyor. Exams some more. No time lerssss. I hope everyone else is doing better than me, and i pray for everyone to get a lenient accessor.

My neighbour is drilling holes in the walls. Bising.

LOL!

I fell asleep yesterday while waiting for Kun and Ywen. I wasn't even dressed. Hehehe...pai sheh. Went to Darulsalam to meet up with Crabman. Planned to lepak there but at the end change of plans again. Me Kun and Ywen went to Ming Tien to eat while Crabman went to SS3 to pick Simon and Tamami. (Tamami is a jap...and she's so kawaeiiiii!) Went over to Chill, lepak and play cards a bit. Then went to over to Matrix to play pool. So nice to be there on a Tuesday night cos there were no queues for the pool tables and there was ample of tables.

Ywen crashed at my place cos her friend that is picking her up lives near my place. (She's got to be at church at 5.30am! siow!) The annoying cats. Couldn't sleep. (Edit: The pics here)

..gimmie more comments on the abortive birth control thing on my previous entry. I wanna know what you all think.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CRABMAN!!!

My .tk domain have not been working properly for the past few days. *sign* This www.bigheadbighat.blogspot.com gets you here too, if you don't already know.

According to all the stuff I’ve read, it doesn’t matter when you abort (kill) an unborn baby, you are still killing a living thing. The way I see it, then cells multiply, they are kind of living already. Anyways, those cells will become a physical human body. So killing the cells are like killing the future of the cells right? I read it here that it doesn’t matter if there’s a soul in the ‘clump of cell’ because ‘you can’t kill a soul even if you tried’.

So, the point is, if killing the ‘clump of multiplying cells’ is actually considered killing, then how about abortive birth control? According to the stuff I read, some birth control can’t always stop the fertilization. So the zygote actually is there. It’s just that the drugs or whatever birth control used do not let the attachment of the zygote to the walls of the uterus. Isn’t that still called killing?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUNKUN!

I just came from his party. It was a blast. Serious. A Blast (continue reading). Me and Crabman reached there quite late. BBQ a little. Chat a little. But all the fun began when people got high and drunk. Yih Wen looks real cute when she said she'll only go home if she drank 5 shots with us. *grin* (I think she was a bit high then...she driving u know...aikes) Grace actually took the wheel. But Yih Wen kind of drive Grace home at the end. Hehehe. Yih Wen kind of worried me cos she didn't pick up my phone when i called her..twice! Grace called me at the end, she said Yih Wen was at her place. Phew.

After blowing Jun Kun's birthday cake, his bro lit fireworks for all of us to see. RM90 for just one blast. And serious. One RM90 blast that i will never forget. It was kinf of scary. Why? Cos the stand fell! Instead of blasting the works to the syk, it blasted to the side! to someones house! I got the whole thing on video. Too bad i don't have enough webspace to let you all see. It was spectacular. But scary.

Learnt a few stuff and realised a few stuff during the party. Not serious stuff tho. All bad and nottie stuff hehehe.

Anyways, the trip back home was...hahaha. Kian Hwei drove me home. He actually forgot to open his car side mirror until he reached LDP! And then he dropped me off at the wrong house. HAHAHHAHA. I was like...'erm..you still have to turn right to my place..' then he said 'aiyor i know, i not drunk' ...but...hahahah. Then again i think it was just a silly mistake. (...hm..actually he drank quite a lot also)

Super tired now. Still have to wake up early tomorrow. Planning to go down to Lowyat. Got to get another thumbdrive. I gave my bro mine.

Pics all here.

Beautiful butterfly. Floating with the air. Warm breeze. The heat. Gun shoots. The butterfly! The wings. Falling..falling...falling. Died. Awake. Got to be something else. Butterfly. Bullets. Bullets with butterfly wings. The world is a vampire. So yes. I will be the bullet. I will be the wings. That's what i'll be. You don't have to understand. You are not meant to.

New blogger guy.

Had a little interesting chat with Tze Foong. A game of CS with him would even be more interesting. That is if he 'fong sui' and try not to snipe me. *grin* Paul Paul where are you. Mag is back too. She asked if i want to play futsal. Hell yeah! (ok you can stop laughing now) Now just to find time to do both of that. Classes starting on Monday. Darn. I need a longer holiday. Oh wait...i'm still broke. Find $$ too.

Ying's birthday today. Happy Birthday Woman! Alvin's birthday too. Happy Birthday Man!

Pre Celebration @ some cybercafe in SS2.
Went out for dinner with Zhong in SS2. Since it was still early, we decided to hit the cyber cafe for a short game of Quake III Arena, but the cyber cafe we went in don't have that game installed :-( Played a bit of CS. The initial plan was to celebrate NY in Swensons. But a change of plans, Mun Fai picked us up, then we headed to Chill. Jin Dave and Yong Ching didn't join us :-(

Celebration @ Chill, Phileo Damansara II
The place was empty when we got there.. :-O but then thats just because all the tables were booked. But we got lucky and got all the remaining unbooked tables. Cindy's parents (Mel and Johnny) came with us. They are not parents i tell you, they are more like Cindy's elder sister and brother.

Everyone left a little before 1am for their own post NY celebration. I left with Kun to his friends party. The first thing i saw when i entered the house was 2 guys sleeping on the lawn and a table full of alcohol. Enough said. Left after a while to meet Jin Dave and Yong Ching

Post Celebration @ Ming Tien, Taman Megah.
All of us sat infront of the projector screen. They tuned in to CNN. Of all channels.. :-O Chat a bit, eat a bit, hang out a bit, left for home.

SUMMARY: A bigger hole in my pocket...
