No. 5 – Why do men go to the gym? If they really wanna “work out” they’ll go to the serious small scale ones like Push More where they give intensive training ala millitary style! Guys who throng Celebrity Fitness, Fitness First only have one objective in mind ;)

ANYWAYYY… on the treadmill. Warming up at 3 kph.. a buff dude came next to me. iPod plugged in. I started jogging 7 kph. He matched me. With both of us being fat, there was a loud *thump* thump * thump * sound as we jogged. The race WAS ON!!!

10 minutes in, we both break a bit. I glanced over. He = 1.0km Me = 1.2 km…. ok, quick water break.. THUMP THUMP THUMP again.

Then he cooled off.. glanced over.. he? 18 minutes, wan tan. I did my full 20 minutes! AHHH… satisfaction to beat another dude in the gym! Seldom this happens, weih…

No. 4 – Dance class with the Brazillian “new daddy” Luciano was epic. The crowd at Subang Parade was nice. Very friendly, we had a good time doing Hip Hop!

No. 3 – Pork Mee SS15. Still as “lan si pa pai” as ever, but tastes as good. Maybe another bowl next week, mmm??

No. 2 – My cough subsided. Although intermittent but it is very much better now :) Praise GOD!!!

No. 1 – At the end of the Barclay Premier League weekend of 6th March, the standings are:

MANCHESTER UNITED – 1st – 60 pts

LIVERPOOL – 6th – 42 pts

And that’s that :D

Have a GREAT GREAT week of 7 – 13 March peeps!

Sir Alex Ferguson has won many titles during his time at Manchester United.

He knows how to win it. He knows how to keep the team spirit up throughout the 40 gruelling weeks of football.

3 things I wanna share today.

1. TedXKL was awesome. I went up the Petronas Twin Towers to level 29, the Microsoft Auditorium. About 200 people turned up. And I was greatly inspired.

The past 168 hours (7 days) has been both exciting and eye-opening.

Before I get into it, kindly feast your eyes on the beautiful pictures I took throughout the past week, to aid me to explain the chain of events!

Here’s the standing

Aston Villa is a mid table team who has made big impressions on top clubs. Just look at their secret to success, the “Goals Against”. Leaking only 18 goals after 24 games, now that’s seriously solid defensive teamwork. Keeping teams at 0-0 deadlocks are their specialty, and there’s a good chance that will happen at Villa Park tonight.

Manchester United is in good form as of late. With a healthy +41 Goal Difference, on paper it should be an easy win THIS time around.

While Arsenal and Liverpool do battle tonight, if you want to see the champions play against a good defensive team playing good technical football, watch the Man United match. For those who want to watch the hype, the passion and physical fast-paced game, watch the “other” match. For the rest, just have a good night’s sleep because your colleagues will be talking about it. Oh yes, wear RED on Thursday. You won’t go wrong.

Was at KLCC area, and was taking some pictures with Melvyn and Jose. Then we asked an elderly couple to help us take some pics (which were terrible!) hahahaa…

When asked where they were from, they replied, “LIVERPOOL!”

I immediately bombed them, “One of the lousiest football team in teh world!” Hahahaa… then Melvyn brought me to my senses before I blew up with stupid comments!

When I think back, I thought it was quite insensitive. After all, they are elderly couples in retirement. How can I be so selfless, heartless and critisize the city they’re from, when they have an awesome University and nice vibrantculture?

Then, upon second reflection, I thought to myself. I’m “merely” showing them the Malaysian passionate football culture. We like their football, we like their flare. I think it was within the limits allowed. No profanities, just a light-hearted joke.

Shows the tolerance, and accomodating nature of Malaysians.

Then again, I might have painted a dark image of Man United supporters? I thought I was being passionate. But I guess it was at other’s expense.

If I go Liverpool, they say “Eh, your Malaysian food is rubbish” I’ll just nod and politely smile! RIGHT?

At the end of the day, would I do it again? I think, yes… but maybe to a more younger audience. Then of course, I would be subjected to a good whacking, if he’s an aggressor!! LOL!

My high school principal, Mr. Soo celebrates his birthday on 22-11-33. He was a nice man.

Then there’s YW. For the past 3-4 occasions, we have been having Carl’s Jr to commemorate each other’s birthdays.

Expensive burgers with good service… and now even playing a music mix of their own, not bad.

Yesterday visited DUMC. The youth were awesome, highly talented bunch with huge potential. Maybe one of the reasons why I insist so much on going back to Penang to work is perhaps to build up and serve in my home church. Like linkin park says, “I will never know myself until I do this on my own.. I will never feel anything else until my wound are healed”.

Pool last night was fun. Tough luck for Birthday boy’s Arsenal team who lost to Sunderland @ the Stadium of light. Business as usual for United, still trailing Ski by 5 points and a big goal difference.

Today’s agenda, off to Lowyat. And Kin Kin pan mee. OMG, i can’t wait.

Here’s a preview of Google Wave, an amazing piece of technology by Google.

This system really changes the way we communicate, and how we interact with the blogger, the commenter, the bystander and even the silent one. Should be publicly available early next year!

And today’s SIB service was good. We the cell were the hosts, and it was quite a nice experience. People were nice, and the food thereafter was decent!

And Telok Gong dinner was awsm.

Furthermore, Chelsea’s defeat and our slim victory brings Man Utd back to the top of the Table.

‘Grats to Arsenal too who is slowly climbing up the board.

Here is Lukas’ go kart experience earlier this month!

I learnt 3 things:

1. Video compression takes a lot of firepower. Rendering a 640×480 10 minute video takes about 40 minutes. No effects or editing whatsoever. Need Quad Core processors soon :) hehehe….
2. Streamyx is fast. I averaged 48KByte/sec upload throughout the 55MB upload. Amazing consistency. As for downloads, I can touch 160KB/s, and average 140KB/s. Oh, there’s no caps.
3. Solid State Drives (SSD) are very fast. By multiple factors. Like loading Win Vista takes 70 sec on a fast Core i7 system. But with SSD, that process completes in under 10 secs. Cons: Rm 1200 for 120GB?

Man United down 1-2 to Sunderland

BULLETIN — EARTHQUAKE SHAKES BUILDINGS IN TAIWAN.

At 1am today, it happened.

So, how does it affect an average Ahmad, Ah Kaw, and Mutu?

1. Computer components / Tech gadgets might see price increase. Memory, hard disk, at least 10% increase over the next 2 weeks.

2. When Taiwan sneezes, the whole world catches a cold. We are over dependent on Technology.

3. Last but not least, my favourite Taiwanese sausages in Pasar Malam????? wa-wa- waaaaa……… :P

On a related note, its fun studying Geology and earthquakes. Will talk about my tremor experience while living in a 15 storey apartment in Penang once upon a time!

Lastly,

93′

And there it is. United escaped there, they were rubbish. Sunderland didn’t necessarily do enough to win, but they did play well.

You know its a Scouser writing that Soccernet commentary!

Meh, I think Arsenal and Liverpool will win big tomorrow.

Internet Security – overlook it and it’ll cost you.

I got some Chinese pirate friends! Arrrr..

I served 8 Gigs yesterday, a record!

Everybody likes Dido and Christina Aguilera.

It was partially my fault cuz I didn’t directory list protect my /src directory where I keep all my good shit. Google/Yahoo bot came, index it and boom, its available via a special string search.

I was gonna gloat about last night’s victory, but I’ve come to humble myself abit now… after what happened.

.. but I did told you so ;)
