Tomorrow, I will be collecting a pair of Crocs sandles, thanks to my lovely sister, Olivia :) [edit: here it is! in yellow]

Tonight will be a good night, where Liverpool and Arsenal will draw 2-2 with Torres to score first. United to dive to the lead with a convincing win and a Chelsea slip up. [edit: epic phailure. the game in sunday night and man utd fail to capitalise on a chelsea cock up]

Ah.. one can dream, can’t he?

5 things I wanna comment on tonight:

1. Astro HD, step in the right direction. Football in HD = win. But does the RM 20+ premium justify 2 extra HD sports channels? And don’t get me started on the rain fade issue.

2. Wow, 25 points for Winner of a Formula 1 grand prix race. Very nice, but will it screw things up? Nice to see many cars on the grid. Wow, this time, I think I’ll go with the Hamilton-Button british team! Mmmm…

3. Nice to meet the OUG CG of 2006 again, after such a long time. It was truly heart warming.

4. It would be nice if we can make a trip to Genting or Penang in the next 10 days! Anyone up for a trip?

5. On a short term, low key thing, how about a bowling or cycling trip (Bkt Cahaya, Shah Alam)? Or, even Go-kart?

Oh, and went to Taylor’s lakeside with Patrick. Discovered the wonders of the Machine they call an iMac. The iChat feature was awsm.

The man has a vision to help Malaysia regain its glory, starting with the youth. He’s the guy who started Rakan Muda, but when he stepped down, it turned Political, some dude who used it as a platform to get into BN. He doesn’t want to be a political party, but if either BN or the opposition makes good plans, he will support it, and more importantly, critisize bad decisions by the MPs!

Here’s Anwar’s Charge

I had a talk with my dad and he has interacted with Malays in his twenties and thirties. It is VERY VERY common for anal intercourse among single and lonely guys back then. Everyone was pretty poor, few were rich.

“Takde lubang, cam mane?”

Now we have four figure monthly allowance WHILE STUDYING in expensive unis costing 5-figures annually.. Of course “Ada Duit Dapat Amoi” right?

On another topic, i would like to post out this question. Are you secure with what you are?

Most people like to be reaffirmed that they’re good. Rub their shoulders and they’ll do anything for you (favour lah). As children, yes I can understand the need to tell you what’s right / wrong, what you could do better. But past your teenage years, do we still need positive reaffirmation?

Lets say your friend tells you something negative about your character, or the girl you like for example. Do you take it to heart? Why? Would you be disappointed or angered? Do you feel a need to confront, or would you ignore, or avoid this issue / comment?

July 2009 Phailed Mix is out. I’m uploading to the server now! It will be in the Stream Pad soon.

.

I would like to plug Cynthia Tan’s [FB] choir -

Dithyrambic Singers

on their release of their new 12-track album

Which I witness its live recording earlier this year at Sentul.

The one I’m excited about is Locus Iste. You just have to listen to the first line, right off the bat, and you’ll be tickled! Most of the tracks dances across various sub-genre and culture. Even the random noises / sounds in a “skit-liked” piece really was a well organised distortion, as I like to refer it to as :)

One trivia fun fact / sidenote: I am sure she won’t like 90% of July’s phailed mix. haha.. :P

Thought for the day: “Listen first, then talk”.

- That’s CSMA / CD in Networking Fundamentals!

As you no doubt heard last night, the whole Facebook vanity URL grab thing was big. Within seven minutes of the service being available last night, 345,000 users grabbed one. Within 15 minutes, over a half million had, Facebook spokesperson Larry Yu told Bloomberg. But who got the best one.

The best one I’ve seen by far, was grabbed by Christine Shipley of San Francisco. Rather than go for facebook.com/christine.shipley or even facebook.com/shipley, she went with facebook.com/default.aspx. Yes, her name could easily be confused as the default landing page for Facebook. (Though, savvy users will know that the site is actually built in PHP, and not ASP, which the .aspx extension suggests).

Numero Uno. Christine….

Phailed Mix June 09 is almost done. I’ve shortlisted these songs, with 2-3 more extra as “surprise” when the final mix is out. Check it out, ya’ll!

Busy Day today! But exciting as always~!

Ok, I need a small favour from  you guys. Go to Google.com and search for “Khalij Petroleum”. That’s its. Your help is much appreciated.

It is air-conditioned, and the housemates are so much nicer to the dude who is the same race as Barrack Obama whom always complains about small-small shit like my Bass being too loud, or shit stuck on the shared toilet floor. Hmmmph.

Anyway, I added Kevin Federline’s – Lose Control to my Phailed Mix May 09. He’s Mr. Ex-Britney Spears [youtube]. It was released back in 06, but hey, if its good (decent) then its worth adding!!!!!

Congratulations Barcelona, congratulations Chelsea, congratulations Liverpool on your recent wins. Nevertheless, you will all finish 2nd to the champions of England, champions of Europe and Champions of the world, Manchester United!

* will share some pics with you guys tomorrow afternoon. stay tuned!

A. LABOUR chief Lim Swee Say has this advice for the 30,000 job seekers in Singapore: There are still jobs out there.

Well, despite there being jobs, the competition for the spot is very tough. You’re competing with ang-mohs (which I’ll get onto later) with super hebat qualifications from super overhyped universities (yes, Melbourne U, I’m talking about U). What you can do is to offer something that the company needs, and a single competitive advantage. Don’t tell the interviewer / boss that you know SQL, XML, Java, C++, Sybase, Oracle, Unix, Apache, LAMP environment, Cisco and DJ-ing. No use lah, although impressive.

Tell them, Ï designed silentscreamonline.com, a successful Malaysian rock band as well as headed the online advertising and promotional efforts of multiple college organisations and a big Petronas-subcontractor”. That is enough to sell yourself already.

B. AFTER its $40 million makeover, iconic Orchard Road is going all-out to sell its charms to Singaporeans and tourists alike.

Final exams are 8-19 June. Immediately after that, will probably visit koko (brother) in Singapore and walk-walk around. By then the iPod Touch should be available. I wonder if its cheaper there. At the same time, gotta visit the new Orchard Road, and friends such as Vineet and Jason Lim :)

Another place I wanna “visit” is Genting. But dad wouldn’t allow lah; cuz I’m a serial gambler! :P

C. Sex education remains an awkward subject for both parents and teachers in Viet Nam because of the conservative attitude towards things considered “sensitive”. Thus, adults either end up not talking about sex and relationships to youngsters or else talk down to them or are evasive.

No sex ed in Viet = no Viet wives or Gfs.

Think twice when a prostitute offers you, “Sucky sucky fai dollah [rm 18]“. Kthxbie.

D. How to get lucky with women by Skilldo [link via Asiaone]

Very useful tip to khaw Singaporean women. I hope it works globally =P

But I never trust any tips no matter what (shares trading, business proposals, 4D betting). Gotta “listen to your heart”.

E. Mc Donald’s Malaysia on Facebook – Win an iPhone with 6 months of Maxis Value80 plan. Essentially they take care of your whole iPhone experience for the minimum duration.

This is a great marketing campaign by Mc D. Buy a JesusPhone for RM 3500, get thousands of Malaysian bloggers to blog about your shitty restaurant serving food that shortens our lives. On top of that, imagine the FREE publicity they’re getting for a mere RM 3500. Blog readers are on average having more spending power than non-online savvy people. They’re also easily influenced and believe almost anything they read online even if its half truths.

Air Asia starting this blogging thing with the Wanna be a Pilot? Blog about it. I’m still bitter they didn’t call me!

F. REVVING up their machines, they burn rubber as they tear down the roads of Malaysia. These are illegal racers who occasionally duel with each other for glory.

We gotta read international media to know about the shit happening in Malaysia. We get a different perspective on the real issues going on around us. We are blessed because unlike China, the InterWeb is not censored or monitored. Instead of reading thestar.com.my or malaysiakini.com , we should look at WSJ.com or Google News which links to hundreds of overseas news agencies. Rempit FTW.

G. Swine Flu (H1N1)

We’re at level 5 now (out of 6) so its pretty serious. Anyway, according to Patrick, we should be worried cuz the virus dies at 70C. Even if we don’t die from this flu, we’ll still be kaput in 2012 (oh no, here i go again, I’m out of my medicine!)

Hong Kong kena already. I gave wrong info to the guys yesterday. Its not Najib’s admin team that kena Swine. But OBAMA’s team. My bad.

H. SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) – Microsoft said Thursday that a nearly-final version of its next-generation Windows 7 operating system will be publicly released on May 5.

WOOOHOOO… Salvation is here!

Goodbye, XP. File -> Delete -> C:\Windows\Vista .

The only thing that can sway me right now is that if Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is compatible with normal Intel-PCs without having to apply some leet hacks. If Apple makes its OS available, Windows would have to do something radicle. But at the moment, I feel MS will still have its slender lead (ok, a big one lah) but Apple will be chipping off their market share.

I. http://digg.com/d1q0Gu Obama Ruins Black Jokes

I’m a big fan of Jon Steward. His jokes are very funny. He works with a team of jokers (literally) and a creative video team. Worth watching la.

J. http://mcdonalds.com.my

Ok, I did say Mc Donald’s is bad. But as college students with our Catan withdrawal symtoms we have no other choice but to buy a “small Coke” at RM 2.10 with Unlimited Refills and sit at their air-cond restaurants with big TV and watch our football matches. YW: There are downloadable coupons there, so you might wanna try them out.

Ok, you win, Mc Donalds.

L. Phailed Mix May 2009

Here are the songs I chose for May 2009. Its now 6am so I’m a bit woozy. Will rearrange the final order by lunchtime and cut it by dinner time after buying some blank CDs.

Super late 03 May update: I included Kevin Federline’s – Lose Control in my May 09 Mix. Luci @ Celebrity Fitness keep playing it, and although the reviews say it sucks big time (and Kevin being an epic phailure being a riprapper hip hopper). Got opportunity I show you some dance moves I learnt from this song ;)

You will be able to listen to EVERY song via the music bar on my blog ;0)

Have a Great WEEKEND everyone. Be productive ;)

- 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 ;-)

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 :)

In the class, I saw a dude with a Lance Armstrong jersey. Damn gaya weh :) But you need a nice body so it would look gorgeous. I got blobs of fats, so.. maybe a years time lah, ok? Here’s how it looks like:

I wasn’t comfortable with the bikes. I think I have big butts, so it kept poking the muscular areas as well as my bones. After 16 hours, I’m feeling the after-effects. Dammit. Maybe I need to get used to it lah.

There’s uphill, downhill, walking-pace, sprint, slow sections, varying resistance. Hahaha.. I kinda cheated when the instructor said “turn up one level, two levels, three levels”. He meant resistance, which would mean having to paddle harder. He can actually see that we’re cheating if we didn’t crank it up. LOL!

“Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger”

On another topic, the horrorscope for yesterday was saddening :(

Daily horoscope for April 23, 2009
—————————————————————————–

Today’s Energy Level – High
       You need to say goodbye to someone, but it won’t be as difficult as you fear it will. You will see something today that makes you understand that this fork in the road holds two very rewarding (yet opposite) paths for each of you, so leaving them to go their own way isn’t a rejection. You now see that staying on the same path is a mistake for you both. You’re entering a strong selfless phase that will keep your heart warm even when you’re missing people you love.

Oh well. If its meant to be, so be it.

Its almost 10:00am. Time for Networking Fundamentals class with Ms. Hiap. She’s awesome, but as with all IT subjects, what is mostly taught is slightly outdated. Later today, bowling at 4pm, Sunway Pyramid.

Then tomorrow 9am meeting with our Student Council sponsor. And Sunday, Paroimia Part 2 with Kate, maybe Cain and Melyvn as well. Got 2 assignments to complete in 14 days, so we’ll keep that in mind too before making plans for crazy visits to crazy places :P

I had a dream. No, not Martin Luther King sorta dream, but rather a weird and unconventional one. I was involved in a situation where I had to make a decision, and I backed down instead of following through. Was I easily swayed, or can we call it a rational move? I like it when a well-timed-aggression move pays off. Which reminds me:

Lukas has a good Poker face.

When I woke up, it was already the 60th minute. Didn’t see any goal action but I hear that it was from an impossible distance. Footytube.com to the rescue.

Bird Word – coined by Yap and gang, it is a literal translation of the Hokkien phrase “chiao hua”. The long running Simpsons competitor, Family Guy had a recent episode a month ago using a 60s music, “Bird is the Word”….. that goes something like… Youtube [link]

Surfing Bird – The Trashmen

A-well-a everybody’s heard about the bird
B-b-b-bird, bird, bird, b-bird’s the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, b-bird’s the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird’s the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, b-bird’s the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird’s the word
A-well-a don’t you know about the bird?
Well, everybody knows that the bird is the word!
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird’s the word
A-well-a…

Maybe we should make it our theme song! We’ll come up with a Phailed Remix ft Tiesto ;) [dreams]

We had a conference last night with Bob. I think there were 5-6 participants, and Skype technology was used. It performed well but it could be better.

Taylors Engineering Fair on Friday 8am-5pm. 30 over projects, probably 5 will be monetised. It would be fun if two parties [sic investors] were bidding for the same project. Hmmmm…. maybe I should make that happen! :P

God is great.
