Frankly, this is the coolest application I've ever played with. Basically it's a browser that lets us browse, our planet called Earth. I've been flying all over the world since yesterday. Flying from countries to countries and also from cities to cities. Viewing detailed satellite snapshot of major international cities like New York, London, Beijing, Tokyo, Sydney, Hong Kong, and well... almost every corner in the world. Google Earth integrated lots of functions indeed, like searching for restaurant or hotels, viewing 3D buildings, getting road directions, and the list goes on and on...

FYI, Google doesn't pay me for making advertisement for them. But this is highly recommended by me. Just download it and get your hands dirty googling the earth and have fun!

A lovely morning as I woke up from my bed. That's because I slept at 10.30 PM yesterday night. After I got myself prepared, I went downstairs and get my car. Some of you might know that in front of my house is a pasar pagi and thus the street is always busy.

I got into my car and just when I wanted to start the engine, one 30 year + auntie knocked at my glass window. Without waiting me to scroll down the window, she told me that her car (a Toyota Camry), which she parked exactly behind my car got some problem and she wanted to get her friend to help. I said OK and she ran into the pasar to ask for help.

I wait and wait and wait and I was almost late for work. Then I saw her coming back alone. She came to me and with her guilty eyes, she said, "Uncle ar, I couldn’t get............"

The rest I forgot already but "Uncle ar...... Uncle ar...... Uncle ar...... Uncle ar......" the echo goes on, in my mind. Damn you lady!!! Do I really look that old???!!!

I calm myself down and ask, "what's wrong with your car?"

"I couldn't pull the gear" she said.

I went into her car and started the engine (Camry not bad actually). The old classic Chinese song started to play. Then I tried to pull the gear handle into the "R" position but it just won't move. She started to get nervous and then borrowed my hand phone to call her husband (who is still sleeping) to come here for help. Oh no, for sure I'll be late for work today. I started to look around for any lock or button, but nothing. Then I try to press the break paddle and then pull the gear handle again... hey, It moved...!!!

Later, she drove away in haste and so did I, but the "Uncle ar..." still goes on in my mind.

Ok... Jae tagged me 2 days ago and I only got to know when I saw derrick's blog (I'm so outdated). However, here it is...

Total volume of music files in my computer: 7.8GB of MP3s (stopped collecting a years ago)

The last CD I bought: 王力宏 – 心中的日月 (started to buy CDs a year ago)

Song playing right now: Do I need to tell???

Five songs that I listen alot and mean lot:

1. 陈奕迅 - 十年埋伏: For me, this is the most perfect song I've ever heard.
2. 张敬轩 - 断点: A very touching song.
3. 陈奕迅 - 我们都寂寞: Loneliness rulezzz!!!
4. Joey McIntyre - Stay The Same: Meaningful all I can say.
5. Tanya - 沙滩: I LOVE beach...

Five people to whom I pass the baton to (Wah... This is damn difficult):

Ervin
OBK
Cheng Lam
Ah Loy

It has been weeks I didn’t post anything here. As I’m so busy with my works, now have to take a little time blogging to relax a bit. Recently, Okui and I had been working on a wall in the office which is facing directly to the entrance. We’ve been struggling to make such a large format printing, figuring out how’s the resolution should be, the width, the height, and the printing quality. After a week, we’ve finally set up the wallpaper with the help of other colleagues. The wall now looks just beautiful. And everyone in the company happy looking at it.

 

Coming up next in my “To Do List” is a series of new products packaging design, altogether 6 of them. Wah… I’m going crazy soon.

Continue from last post, about that girl who wants to know me... actually many things happened after that. I even wrote journals about it. But I was just too busy to finish up the journals. And now I already forgot what I wanted to wrote. Never mind, I'll try to write what I remembered.

Since I gave the girl my phone number, she called me everyday during midnight just want to talk to me. Then I got really annoyed and reject to pick up her phone anymore. She then asks her friends to call me and ask me to date with her, saying that she really miss me lar, and all kinds of reasons. And I got really really really irritated as I was receiving so many calls during midnight. After that, I decided to switch off my hand phone at night.

One day, a friend of her approached me and tell me that she will be going to Singapore soon (Wah!!! My nightmare is going to be over!!!). And because of that, she wants to date me no matter how, even for 15 minutes is more than enough.

Er... yet, still got so many things to write... hahaha... Okay... long story short lar... I refused to go out with her. She asks her friends to help her. Then all her friends come and ask me go out with her, saying that so pity see her like that (Wah... then who is going to pity me???!!!). I rejected everyone, and every time.

Until the very last day before she went to Singapore, she called me so many times from morning till afternoon. Of course I didn't answer. Then after that, her friend approached me again asking me what I want actually? Why I don't want to go out with her? I said it's impossible both of us get together.  Her friend said she knew that also, but the girl thought there's a chance (Wah...!!! Pengsan lah... I do until like this also not enough meh??? She still thinks there's a chance???!!!). I then asked her friend to tell her nicely that both of us are "impossible" to be together. She went to tell her and send me a message saying that she already told her, but it's better if I message the girl myself telling her I still want to be her friend. @#$%^*% Wah... some more want to be friend with her ar. Later my bones also never left.

Well... few days after that nothing happened. Hhmmm... the story has finally comes to the end... I guess. Not until I receive these sms's, then only I realize that this is a never ending story. Below are the sms's I received continuously in few days time (please note that I didn't reply even a message).

1st sms: I'm going to Singapore lor, can I call you when I'm there?
2nd sms: I reach Singapore already!!!
3rd sms: I'm *** this is my new phone number.
4th sms: How are you lately? Busy with works? Eat already or not?
5th sms: I found a job already, Monday start working lor...
6th sms: Life is so difficult ar!!!

Hahaha... guess what. Few days back her friend told me that she's coming back soon. My nightmare is going to start all over again......

Okay, nobody understands how frustrating I am now. There was this girl next door was trying to know me few weeks back. She works at the shop next door. One day, she asks her colleagues to tell me that she wants to know me. The 1st thing came to my mind was "what kind of pork chop wanna know me?" Okay... as a gentleman, I think I shall let her see for few eyes. We met and we talked for few ten-minutes. Well, tell you frankly girl, you talk meaningless things, you've got no sense of humor, and the worst thing is you think I really like to chat with you???!!!

The next day, she attempts me again. This time she asks for my hand phone number. SHIT!!! I don't want to give her my number!!! I told her "Don't need lar... next door only mar..." She said "Don't like that lar... next time I never work already how to contact you wor..." I've tried to reject, you know... I DID... But sometimes being a nice guy will only make the situation worst. At last I don't know how to reject liao, then I gave her my number. Fuck!!! Why am I giving her my number???!!! What the hack am I thinking!!!??? I felt so so so regret and felt like banging my head to the wall!!! Shit I hate myself so much...!!!

She started to forward me some sms. Until lately, she sent me a message like this,

"Hai, know who am I? Neh... the one can really chat with you one leh... Don't need to guess lah... I'm the one working next door lor. Why today never see your whole family one? Went out to play? Just want to send you my greetings. If you feel like so empty, please reply my sms. Don't let this little lady wait ar... (";")"

OMG... finish lah this time. Who the hell does she thinks can really chat with her???!!! I didn't reply her until yesterday. She came over to my daddy's shop and ask me to go out to have a talk. Argh......!!! Can't you just leave me alone???!!! She asked me why I didn't reply her? I started to give her so many excuses then I faster faster say mummy needs my help and ran away.

Do you guys think that's all? HELL NO!!! The worst thing happened that night! SHE CALLED...!!! She keeps on talking and I just act cool with just "hmm... hmm..." as my reply. She asks me am I very tired. I say yes and straight away say bye bye and hang over the phone.

Fuck!!! Why me???!!! Why me???!!! I hate myself for giving out my hand phone number. I hate myself for being so nice to her. Such an idiot I am. Argh......!!! What should I do???!!!

Wah, it's been awhile since I updated this blog. I've been doing so many things past months. I'm so busy at the moment, now just wanted to shout out my appreciation for all the birthday greetings from all my friends.

Okay, before I forget... Cheng Lam, Okui, OBK, Ted, and Jenn, thanks for calling. I love you all so so so much. Muaks... muaks... And also not forgetting to thank all those who had messaged me. I appreciate them a lot.

Thank you so much everybody...!!!

Wow!!! 5 days of holiday already gone. Now back to the office finally. HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all my friends. Wish you all happy and prosperous new year.

I had been to many places during CNY. Not many actually, but just going to those places again and again. New Year eve and 1st day CNY went back to Ipoh. 2nd day went back to Pantai Remis, at night then go back Taiping. 3rd day went to Ipoh again and at night go back Taiping to sleep. 4th day went to Pantai Remis AGAIN and 5th day went to Ipoh AGAIN...

I went to the beach at Pantai Remis to watch sun set. But it was too late. Cannot see any sun but only moon. Hahaha...

Bought only few new clothes this year because am not in KL liao. Should have bought more because daddy pays the bill. Sigh... However, got many Ang Pau's this year as cousins are getting married already.

My friends say it's so weird where we (father side) used to line up ordered to give Ang Pau. This is to ensure that nobody gets left out from giving or receiving Ang Pau. After they did some calculation, the total amount of Ang Pau gave out was around RM 8,000!!! Hahaha... bad for the adults but good for us.

Gathering... one must have event every year. Meeting old friends, celebrating birthdayssss (yeah, 3 birthdays, 3 presents during CNY). Then mahjong session until late night.

Argh...!!! Holiday's over. Studying one went back to study; working one went back to work. I'm still no mood to work. Sitting in front of the pc like brainless idiot.

Finally, wanna wish everyone...

恭喜发财, 万事如意, 学业猛进, 心想事成, 生意兴隆, 事业顺利, 身体健康, 出入平安, 龙马精神, 年年有鸡, 鸡少虫多, 鸡不择食... 鸡年快乐!!!

First of all, I would like to thank everyone who had called me during new year midnight and all the sms I've received.

.: 31st December 2004 :.

Few minutes before new year, I was in the car, with my elder brother driving, with my mum, 2 little brothers, and my younger sister sleeping at the back, speeding on PLUS highway at 120 km/h, heading straight to KLIA. Yeah, going to fetch the only family member I didn't mention just now - my father who came back from China by a 3 hours delayed airplane.

When I reached KLIA it was already 12:30 am. And what do you know, the monitor shows a "re-time" on the status of my dad's airplane. We only got to see my father coming out from the gate at around 2 something in the morning. We head straight to the hotel and everybody just fall onto the bed and sleep.

I've been doing my works until midnight since last week. So that I thought I can have a good rest at Sunday but who knows the earthquake came at the wrong time. I was still sleeping on my bed that Sunday morning. Suddenly I felt that my bed was shaking. At the beginning, I thought it was my brother or mother who is trying to wake me up. I wake up with blurred eyes and look around, no one there so I continue to sleep. Just after I lay down, I felt the shake again. I wake up the second time and now I'm ready to scold whoever shakes my bed, but no one around too. What the...??? It's only 9 o'clock plus!!! I should have sleep until 11 o'clock or else I will be lacking of sleep for the rest of the weeks!!! Well, now I've wakened and can't continue to sleep anymore.

Until noon, my auntie called and told my mum about the situation in Pantai Remis (a fishing village, my mum's hometown). The tide hits the shore and the water level rises to few meters in just 10 minutes. Bridges, boats, and fishing nets all destroyed. Fishes all dead and people just go to the shore and pick up the fishes and some even captured over 100 kg!!! Why the fishes die? Who knows, maybe they die because of heart attack as they never experience any earthquake or tidal waves before.

Straight away I go online to look for any news about this earthquake. I found tons of articles on the net, many people were found dead, missing, and injured. Well, life has to go on and all I can say is we are lucky to live in Malaysia.

dw = dunno who = a girl
Below is our conversation over the phone.

dw : hello, may I speak to xxx?
feng: er... sorry, wrong number.
dw : oops... sorry har...

She hang over the phone. After a few minutes...

dw : Wei! Use your phone to call me back now!!!

She hang over the phone without letting me to say any words. I ignore her. Few minutes later...

dw : Wei... why still don't want to call me??? Faster call me back now!!!

Again, she hang over the phone quickly. I ignore her again. Later...

dw : hello... wei... don't play lah. I know it's you.
feng: I never play but I really think that you called a wrong number.
dw : ......

She hang up the phone quickly.
After a few months, the above conversation happened again. Since then, I saved her number into my phone with the name "dunno who" in case she call again, I shall just cut off the line.

However, she didn't call since then. When I decided to clean up my phone's contacts 1 fine day, I found this "dunno who". Since it's dunno who, so I deleted the number.

1 year later (Tuesday, 14th December 2004, 10:52 PM)...

dw : Hello, may I speak to xxx? (with soft voice, sounds very sad and disappointed)
feng: Sorry, wrong number.
dw : ......
dw : Sorry... (voice with no energy)

29 seconds later...

dw : Hello...?
feng: Who are you looking for?
dw : Are you xxx?
feng: Hey, I said there's no such person, you've called a wrong number!
dw : I know it's you!!! Where are you now???!!!
feng: ......
dw : ......
feng: I know you had called me last year to look for the same person, right?
dw : ......
dw : Do u just bought this number??? Or or or... you just change your number to this 1???
feng: No, but this is the number that I've been using long time ago.
dw : ..................

She stop talking so I just hang up the phone. Hopefully she won't make me saved her number once more.

I woke up early in the morning, I was in a hotel's room with all my family sleeping evenly on 3 beds. Sun light strikes into the room but... er... I don't notice any windows... weird. Oh, we're in a vacation now! (Yesterday, my little brothers beg my father to bring them to Time Square for IMAX and theme park, that's y I dream about this) Later on, most of them woke up already. My elder brother and I went to the bathroom. There were 7 bathrooms altogether (ngam ngam for my family... weird). My brother took the 2nd one and I took the 4th one.

I finished preparing myself and try to walk around the hotel's room. Damn, it was so big. Suddenly I saw a child running at the end of the corridor. When I went towards him, he ran out from the room. I was angry then I lock the door. I turn around to get back to my bedroom. Another child came out no where from the other door next to the one I just locked. Weird... I halau him back to that door. But out of a sudden, that was a classroom. A lady teacher was teaching her children (what the hell a classroom appeared in the hotel's room? Yesterday my father just talked about transferring my little brother to other school, that's y I dream about this). I shout at her "don't let your children run here run there" and then I locked the other door too.

I walk to the window slowly and look out. Suddenly, I saw KLCC putting fireworks!!! (I saw the open house TV broadcast from Putrajaya yesterday, that's y I dream about this) I ran downstairs to have a clearer look. Eh???!!! The hotel is just above my dad's shop. My family members were there already looking at the fireworks. It was very beautiful. I grab over a dunno-what-brand-very-high-tech camera from my brother (I always wish to have a digital SLR, now I got 1 hahaha...). Then I try to find the night shot mode button. The buttons were kind of confusing to use, but lastly I found it at the upper left corner 2nd from the left with fireworks symbol on it.

I started to take pictures of fireworks non-stop'ly. Suddenly, a 4 stories shop house around 100m away from my dad's shop was caught on fire. Everybody started to notice the fire and getting to be panic. The fire is getting bigger and bigger and not until 2 minutes, the front portion of the shop house was collapsed and left over the back portion with some tiang-tiang hanging in the middle air (Well, cannot remember anything with fire and the shop house either, maybe I should go and buy numbers. What's the numbers for fire???).

I stared at the left over building and my sight is getting brighter and brighter then I woke up and it was 9:30 am. It was Sunday!!! Going to Ipoh to watch movies...

This article was published on Nanyang Perak of 17th November 2004. Those are my designs. There are 6 bookmarks altogether, Taiping Lake Garden, Taiping Clock Tower, Taiping Zoo, Perak Museum, Maxwell Hill, and Lotus. If you don't know mandarin, the article was all about praising the club for being promoting Taiping's famous spot to other people. You can find all bookmarks and the article in the photo gallery.

It's been almost 1/2 a month since most of my friends came back from Universities for their holiday. Unfortunately, one of the mahjong kaki went for industrial training and caused us got no place to play mahjong every night. Apart from mahjong, what other entertainments you can get in Taiping? Let me count for you, KTM, KTM, and...... KTM!!! FYI, KTM is the name we used to call the mamak stall in front of the KTM train station.

However, going to KTM wasn't the only thing I did for the last few weeks. I went to cyber cafe almost every night with a bunch of my crazy friends to play Warcraft. Drowning into the world of Warcraft, leaving all the works behind, killing each other, and laughing at those who got killed.

Back to last month, was planning to go to swim every morning. My mind was ready but my body wasn't. I'm just too lazy to wake up early in the morning and dump in the cold water for 1 hour. Day by day and I've never woke up earlier than 8 o'clock for the past month. I think I need to eat more ginseng as this season everybody got sick and I was like never had any exercise for almost half a year!!!

I have to stop now coz it's time to go home.

Thanks to T&J bringing me to this lovely restaurant in Mid Valley to had our lunch on the last day before I come back to Taiping.

The Miso Soup was damn nice which personally I think is better then sushi king and gengki sushi. The rice is superb. Salmon, Chicken, and Beef!!! Walau...

I just can't resist to look at the pictures again and again. Hahaha...

After staying a week in KL, at last I'm back in Taiping. Sitting in front of my computer, checking my fully congested mailboxes, msn'ing, surfing the web, and listening to my favorite mp3 again!

Last time, I do not have so many nick names but only the original ones, hawfeng and hawfeng (in Chinese). But now, I'm getting more and more nick names.

Back to Diploma that time, Jenn was the first one to call me Ah Feng (Pronounce as Féng). As I went to work in xfresh, I introduced myself as Dennis. If anyone still remembers, Bobby used to call me "hao por" and I have completely no idea why I was called like that (and I called him "siao kao" aka mad dog as revenge).

And now, when I started to work. More and more are coming up. At first, maybe because I am the boss' son, all my colleagues called me "Er Sao Yeh" aka second young master. Some called me "Er Gong Zhi". Later on, we know each other better and they started to call me Dennis. However, some new staffs called me Master Lee. Hahaha...and that's sooo weird. But that was only the tip of the ice berg.

One day, when I went over to the staff's office to make a phone call, I saw a paper sticking beneath the phone with all important telephones printed on it. There were phone numbers of my father, some important clients, my brother and mine. And right after my brother's name, they quoted "Handsome". But right after my name, they quoted "Cute". What the hell???!!! After that day, they started to call me cutie, Ah Cute, Cute Cute, and many other nick names related to cute. When I was carrying bunch of documents and got no hands to open the door, they came over, opened the door for me and said, "Hahaha... so cute". -_-''' They came to me with some printer’s ribbon with them and said, "Cute... can you buy this for me?" -_-''' Well, frankly I don't like that. But I can't control their mind. Haih... what do u know, I felt the same when people started to call me Ah Feng. But now, I'm comfortable with it. So maybe in the future, when I get used to the nick, I might think that... I AM SO CUTE!!!

I came by this blog and I found out that this entry is very interesting. After reading everything (took me 1/2 an hour, and it was almost 2 AM).

It was a "War" between our fren, Alex and our famous brand in computer accessories, Canon. I feel sorry for Alex, bcoz canon treats him like that. I feel sorry for canon, bcoz having customer like Alex.

Who is right and who is wrong? It depends on ur own judgement...
