2. The Missing Piece

The nice people at Club 9 gave us free buffet dinner for their 1st Anniversary. Safe to say, we clocked in hundreds of cumulative hours “working” there (on our pool skills, of course!). Ahh, the good times, of waiting til the wee hours in the morning for “promises of a free laptop, motorbike, what else?”

Taylor’s graduation will be 31 Jan 2010. The UniSA peeps won’t be doing it with us instead we at UTS are paired up with guys from Foundation and Diploma. Wonder how that will pan out!

I overheard them saying that its Chinese Christmas soon: December 22nd is a big occassion for many Chinese homes. It is celebrated with the making of tongyuen (cantonese), tangyuen (Mandarin) or kueh ee (Hokkien dialect). In the olden days, the grandmothers are very strict with the making of tongyuen.

During our session just now, it was funny to hear Kate’s dream wedding would include the Wedding Entrance Dance [Chris Brown - Forever]! lol. Just curious to hear other girl’s wedding dreams. Me? 3 options:

A – Garden party, buffet style where whole kampung shows up, cham cha, the end. kthxbie we off to manchester for huneymoon!

B – Traditional Chinese event at restaurant / hotel, do it 2nd time at “her” town. Objective: Make parents / relatives happy.

C – via the Internet… get 100s of ppl to come “online”, do it via video, .. then Catan and Monopoly at a good Mc Donald’s restaurant! Then of course, air lifted via helicopter.

Let’s do something crazy today! Coney Tuesday, Mr. Koay?

Here to put a smile on your face! 20th birthday at Shamla’s place at Old Klang Rd. Rushed back from Penang (2 box of Him Heang P’neah as evidence)

Dad making arrangements for me in Vietnam back in ’06 WOOHOO!!!!

1. Blast from the Past 3

Flop Ace-8-9. Hmmm… this is a big table, 100k buy-in. 4 other big guns loaded, I’m first to act, or under-the-gun as they call it. Worst position, but hey, I got good cards, right?

I check. And it checked around the table!

Turn card was a Queen. Scary card. Again, out of position, I checked. No one played, 1 folded, perhaps couldn’t take the pressure!

River was 6. All different suits, so no chance of a flush draw. Someone raise all-in 4,000. Next player re-raised 50,000. I was so freaking confident I committed all my 100,000 chips all-in (Melvyn gave). Turns out my two pairs was beaten by a Set of eights. Dammit.

So depressed now. Waiting for a Pool table at Club 9, no action. Tomorrow’s a Sunday; and I plan to take time off my busy week. Every day, its eat-sleep-exam-yum cha-pool .. you know, the typical routine.

Went to Bangsar for some Chinese food. And yes, my photo stream works now. See if Maxis comes up with a better data plan, cheaper.. or else each photo will cost me RM 1? Argh..

Whoa, its mid June already. Gotta lay out my plans and schedule for the remainder of the months. If not, my life will be wasted away in nothingness. Anybody up for doing some crazy shit? Like Genting, all-in our life savings? OK lah, Penang trip it is… at a “safe” speed ok, Lukas?

See how Patrick tomorrow come back from Penang. And Jeniffer coming back from Semenyih. But there’s Salsa class at 6pm at the GYM tomorrow. And lunch, Manhattan Fish Market! Wootzah!

I tried Facebook Ads before. They were SUPER strict while selecting and approving advertisements. I guess these dating sites were paying a premium. I keep advocating for businesses to advertise on Facebook. Its like US$0.15 per 1000 impressions… like to get the same effect on newspaper, you’ll be paying US$40 per 1000? Yeah, that’s how cheap FB is. And it is TARGETED.

Bottom line is, yeah, I know and HOPE you Christian girls are like her *wink*

New apple iPhones VERY SOON.

But definately new Macbooks, cheaper, better, faster, stronger.

Had a good time with Melvyn, Yang Wei and Patrick at Club 9. Wasted 5 hours of our lives (and wads of cash) waiting for the lucky draw. We humans need hope. The little hope that we might win the Toshiba Laptop and 32″ LCD tv was good enough for us to stick around, despite being tired.

Learnt shitloads in marketing and business and psychological terms from yesterday’s experience!

- This is the story of Ma Baker, the meanest cat
from ol’ Chicago town

She was the meanest cat
In old Chicago town
She was the meanest cat
She really moved them down
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all

She was the meanest cat
Oh she was really tough
She left her husband flat
He wasn’t tough enough
She took her boys along
‘cos they were mean and strong

Ma Ma Ma Ma – Ma Baker – she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma – Ma Baker – to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma – Ma Baker – she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma – Ma Baker – but she knew how to die

Played Champion’s League style knockout Pool. Here are the results:

Semifinals 1 : Patrick (2) – (0) Philip

Semifinals 2 : Yang Wei (2) – (1) John

Third Placing : John (2) – (0) Philip

Grand Finals : Yang Wei (2) – (0) Patrick

Special Winner-Against-Losers

Winners YW/Pat (0) – Losers John /Pip (2)

In Summary: There were NO losers

Long weekend ahead. I got it all planned out so hope the execution will be flawless. No fun, just work-work-work! Another song that will make into Phailed Mix May 2009 is Shaggy – It wasn’t me!

Honey came in and she caught me red-handed
Creeping with the girl next door
Picture this, we were both butt naked, banging on the bathroom floor

How could I forget that I had
Given her an extra key
All this time she was standing there
She never took her eyes off me

How you can grant the woman access to your villa
Trespasser and a witness while you cling to your pillow
You better watch your back before she turn into a killer
Best for you and the situation not to call the beaner
To be a true player you have to know how to play
If she say a night, convince her say a day
Never admit to a word when she say makes a claim
And you tell her baby no way

And Flo Rida – Sugar. Love the rhythm

I need your help to pick your top 5, then I’ll compile based on popularity, and I’ll make a final choice From this list only, thanks

oh, and one more thing.

GOOGLE CHROME SUCKS!

Yes, its fast. But its too buggy (at least on my Win XP configuration) and crashed often. I try upload on WordPress, with Shockwave, walau, super painful experience and time wasted. I’ll give it another 12 months lah. Meanwhile, I’m back with FIREFOX ver. 3 .. and the nice extensions like DownTheMall and FireFTP. everything just works.

Off to Ban Huat with Lukas, Yap and Bernard. Nice cheap food in middle of nowhere

Jamie and Patrick Ho

Yang Wei and yours truly

Here’s a video of the action.

k

I won 2 or 3 games, but flattened out in the last part. Maybe it was late lah, or maybe my Mojo ran out. Either way, it was a good hangout session with nice people.

When finishing, we met Kathryn and Jamie who just came back from Paroimia – and 2 mamak sessions in OUG area. Hahaha..

Melvyn told me its Week 10 already. Oh shit. Exams are so close – no more play play already lah. Finish up all the assignments, or else mati lah.

I went gym from 12-2, 4-5pm (pool from 2-4). Now I know where my cash all flow out to. GRRR… must reduce!~

Well, tomorrow is another day, the start of another week. God give me strength to carry on living life to the fullest!

- Who are you friends?

A quick check on Facebook shows I’ve just touched my 100th friend today. A big milestone, some may say.

But why aren’t I that *popular*? The average for my demographics is closer to 250 friends, peaking at 1000 for some. Well, the simple explanation for this is what is called the Friendship Pyramid. Its kinda like a MLM scheme, so please bear with me.

A. Top Level

This is the one you really trust and can talk to. Say, your girlfriend, or boyfriend. At most, you can have only 5 people in this category. If you find that you have more than that, then you’ll probably need to look deeper and sift them like a good cup of black tall coffee

B. Best Friends

Paris Hilton has a TV series to look for the BBF – Best British Friend. The whole concept is hilarious and atrocious. And because of that, it is popular. Sometimes shitty ideas get so much publicity (albeit negative) but it really reached her objectives to gain fame and popularity.

Anyway, there are 20 contestants in an American Idol style elimination. Actually, more towards The Apprentice since she “fires” one of her friends every episode. The tasks she assigns are hilarious – one of which includes finding a “date” for Paris in UK. Erm.. okay, you’re hot, go get yourself a guy to sleep with. Why bother putting other souls through the pain?

The point is, for this category, it is *safe* to have 20 people in your group. Sounds excessive, but you need people of different skills and different personalities to really complete your life. Below is a non exclusive non exhausive list of examples of what I mean by “best friends”.

1. Melvyn Wee – Pool kaki

2. Yang Wei – Bowling kaki

3. Lukas – Driver and Food Kaki

4. Patrick – Business Partner

5. Mark Liew – Dude with Wads of cash wanting to invest in crazy shit

6. Ariel – The Photographer, Traveller and Creative gal

7. Nick Thien – Distant friend (geographically) with innovative and ambitious ideas

8. Rachel Ong – you got it all. All.

9. Cain – badminton kaki, the guide to social-life.

10. Kathryn – She’ll get things done. Anything *;)

C. Good Friends

This category is abit tricky and harder to filter out. These particular people are either not in your life (currently) because of distance. Or just because we have nothing in common to talk about at the moment. HOWEVER, in the future, if our paths meet, we REALLY can connect and do business with.

Among them are like my Brunei friends, my BM (hometown) friends, INTI & KDU Friends and random online friends.

I consider our IT Lecturer Mr. RC Ho to be in this category. The rest of the lecturers….er… you’re one level below, but its damn close =) [unless you give me HD, D then can consider lah]

D. Normal Friends

We say our usual Hi and Bye. I make a shitload of normal friends. I know the cleaner of my gym (Celebrity Fitness). We shake hands and greet each other every time we meet. Also I know the Old Town Kopitiam staff here in SS15 staff. The computer shop in Subang Square, Andex. My programme office people, the student council and all the rest of the college friends. Church people not in my cell group, but some are promoted to Category C lah. The coffee shop by College (Alex Chicken Rice) as well as the drink servers. The Soya Bean seller, KFC counter girl, the guys at Club 9 (although I’m quite close with the Dee Jay and the Rack Guy … believe it or not, we played a game of pool during his OFF time. Yeah, that’s how “friendly” we are!) The indian barber, and although I hate to admit it, I’m friends with most of the TOTO counter clerks and lottery sellers hee hee

E. Passer bys

I just nod and acknowledge these people. I didn’t put Pork Noodles staff in the Category D because they’re very lan-si. All you lan-si people go into this category lah.

Tip: If you’re successful, beautiful (hot), or just smart…. please be humble. You’ll do the whole world a lot of good.

F. Strangers

I am friendly towards strangers. I’m not “buaya” but it seems hot girls tend to respond better to my smiles. Hmmm…

G. Enemies

As far as possible, I try NOT to make any enemies. Even if bey-song with the fella, have to still smile and acknowledge the guy. I will not AVOID them or CONFRONT them but I rather reconcile if possible. If they still don’t want to forgive, then I will just give it a little more time. That’s my policy and philosophy in life.

I hope you guys learnt something from this post. Please comment lah, if you think you got something to say! Its 9pm now, so sien. But I purposely took time off to spend with myself lah. All the past few nights keep going out with friends. Sometime you just need to be a lone. Or be with your lubang
