Today's Special

It's THE chocolate biscuits, and Ice Lemon Tea.

I thought of getting the QuickBite- chocolate cake again but I saw none on the rack, except this *blingbling* nicely wrapped chocolate biscuit.

It was slightly bitter at the first bite, but gradually you get the vanilla chocolate taste. Have I mentioned the peanut? No because it isn't peanut. It's walnut almond my dear.

And here it is, THE ice lemon tea. Yea I love tea, too, especially teh susu ice. I wonder if there is actually teh susu ice in can. Do tell me if you've seen any.

背包·走路

就背着一个背包，今天从家里一路一脚印往那既遥远又近在眼前的Brim Tower走去。也许是周末的关系，这一路上实在没多少车辆来往。也许是时间还早的关系，太阳也还没大肆地照耀。清风徐徐，小小的黄叶像落雨般从路旁的树上撒下来。天啊，真让人感到透体通畅。

我想是错别了这样的光景好一阵子了，这一路走来还真的有让人充电的感觉，一扫往日的阴霾。日子就是要这样地走才能体验到它的乐趣呀。

后记：脚酸。

想太多

最近却看了一部泰国片；一部在当地拿下了很多奖项的片子。内容不错，看了应该会给不少人在亲情、友情、爱情之间有所启发。它给我的影响，却好像不仅于此而已。

从来就没有觉得泰国有什么好。但自从看了这部片子以后，好想找机会到泰国走一趟，看看泰国适不适合自己长住，看看我能不能够接受当地人文风情。我也开始上网找看泰国文字长什么样子，上JobStreet看当地有没有适合我的工作，看那边的大学有没有我可以选修的科系。

会不会是我爱上了戏里的主角？

我想我是疯了。

一觉到底

我这个人的睡觉类型是所谓的浅眠。平时入睡后轻易地被惊醒不说，最近每每到了半夜2~3点还会自动地起床。到了闹钟要响前的10分钟才能稍微地又重新入眠。一觉到底，可遇不可求。

我要是农夫，种出来的田米一定比别人大粒！

恶梦一场

昨晚发了一个很可怕的梦。

我梦见我骑着摩多在一条很宽的马路上载着我的家人，大约共5个人。骑着骑着，突然看到前方左边有不少的车辆停下来，还有救护车。我心里想着，这么大的阵仗，应该是有很严重的车祸发生了。

想着想着，突然我就见识到了事情的严重性。我看到马路上随意地置满了小孩的残肢；手啊，脚啊，头颅身躯等的把路面都盖得满满的，就好像有一辆学校巴士空坠一样。场面非常的可怕。

我没有因此而停下来，依然缓缓地向前走。眼角扫过同时却也发现躺在地上的伤患竟然有不少还是活着的。他们有些利用仅剩的肢体慢慢地爬。也有些静静地躺在原地眨眼。

我还是没有停下来。终于，我的摩多驶进入了事发地点，用不快的速度碾过一个又一个的残肢，车子带动身体就像越野一样时不时地震动。但是当中还有在眨眼和在爬的孩子，没有躲开我的车辆。车轮一次一次的碾过，耳边也传来一声声的惨喊声。

结束。

回味

有些人看电影，只看一遍，看过就算。有些则会选择性地重看；就像周星驰系列的经典之作，一生好歹也要看上好几遍。我恰好是这种人。而且不仅是电影，连续剧我也会反复地看了又看；乐此不疲。

我人生中其中一部TOP 3的连续剧是袁咏仪和赵文卓主演的《花木兰》。第一次看是中学时期某年从电视上看到的。由于前后的时间差距太大，至今总共看了多少次我还真的数不出来。我想大约有5次应该错不了多少。

这部片子很有趣，述说的是花木兰代父从军的前后种种，和家人、军友、神仙、爱人、皇室等的爱恨情仇。除了两位男女主角，还有不少实力坚强的演员穿插在其中。

我记得一天晚上和老爸两人在客厅看这部片子的时候，剧情里花木兰她老爸和花木兰她本人在说着一些人生大道理。好像是说着，人生啊，很多事情不会事事如意；怎么来就怎么走，顺其自然。老爸在半睡半醒间突然问我，戏里的这番对白我有没有看明白。我看了看老爸。他娓娓地又说到，看戏如果可以边看边思考和吸收里边要传递的讯息，对做人有很大的收获。然后他又睡着了。

好像是自那个暑假开始，身边的朋友和老师都发现我疯了吧。

6 Months

It has been awhile since my last post. I was having some Internet connection issues with my Celcom broadband. Eventually found out the way to get it back to rolling again.

I was not able to surf at all previously even though I was connected. The speed somehow showed "a few" kbits but I can hardly sense any. Until I connect to the network using windows' dialler, yes it runs again :) REGARDLESS of the performance, in terms of speed.

I wonder if the BlueCube team is actually working on the new firmware and the application software.

I went for a small gathering last night with a few friends of mine whom I used to have lots of activities with, like singK from evening to early 4am, and "Hartz Chicken buffer"-theme gathering etc; that was like 3 years back, before I moved to Semenyih.

And yes, time is passing so quickly. I can still recall how panic I was when I first joining the company. And now, I'm proudly completing my 6 month probation soon on next week 22nd.

Thanks god.

Worst ways to die

Lately I added this Likeness UNRATED application to my Facebook account. It has a lots of interesting and daring quizzes compared to the original Likeness application. And this morning before I go working, I saw this very challenging quiz to answer.

If you managed to answer this, perhaps you can show me how!

The Moment

Since I find that eating is really the KEYWORD to sort things out, lately I crazily prepared myself lots of food to work. Other than Pepsi the stabilizer, I bought Quick Bites chocolate cakes by Gardenia every morning from the grocery at the ground floor of my office building, RM1.40 each, AND I also brought the wheat bread by Gardenia too which I've prepared at home with Chocolate-Peanut butter. I prepared 6 pieces of the wheat bread yesterday, left with 2 pieces before I went home. So I prepared only 4 pieces today, but again 2 pieces were left. But luckily my colleague volunteered to handle them since she was staying late again.

Talking about food, we went to Summit for lunch this afternoon, the restaurant which we had attended to the most often previously. Due to the boringness, everyday-the-same-food that they provided according to my colleagues a few weeks back, we intuitively stepped around and at last explored Sahara, the now new lunch location of us. Their food is not bad, frankly, with the nice chicken-chop (again? yes, another topic on chicken chop). But the cashier is getting more and more arrogant to blindly charge us a few cents more expensive than the limit we'd flipped it on his face.

To find out who else other than me keened to visit Summit someday, I conducted a survey among our gang of 8 people. I was surprised initially when I first gathered the result from 4 people included me; 3 people actually voted for Summit as their preferred restaurant than Sahara. The final statistics is however a big disaster; We have 5 versus 3, and yes, 5 goes for Sahara.

Yet I came out with this solution to schedule our lunch location accordingly this ratio; Sahara on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; Summit on Tuesday and Thursday.

And so was today the first time we went Summit after the long gap. I picked my favourite dishes, fried eggs with bean and fried wan-tun with Mayonise; But soon I find out that it wasn't that delicious anymore as I'd expected. My colleague then said, "So now are we gonna reduce Summit to one day?".

Dann! How true.

Silent Night

Before I Forget

Yes yes, you *should* see my lovely NDSL that I've bought few weeks ago. It's now completed with a carry bag in black, a crystal clear protection case in orange, and screen protectors.

I've actually asked for opinions about the combination of my black NDSL with the hard case in orange. This again showed that personal visual preference is really really objective.

I love the combo, of course!

   

For those who are interested, I've invested RM775 in total on the toy: NDSL RM550, EDGE RM130, Carry Bag RM25, Orange Clear Case RM30, Screen Protector RM40. I also bought a 4GB microSD memory card from my sister, which you can easily find in Low Yat at around RM100 I think.

There are also friends of mine who wonder whether they should get NDSL or PSP. This is definitely a must-ask question, and you can get a lot of answers from google. According to the comparison posted by Chris Roper at IGN dot com, the following results are concluded.

	NDSL	PSP
Processing Power	-	WIN
Screen(s)	TIE	TIE
Battery Life	WIN	-
Controls	-	WIN
Load Times	WIN	-
Portability	WIN	-
Media	-	WIN
Wireless	TIE	TIE

 

But I personally did not go through the analysis until this level. To me the main point is about the game itself. Put it this way; If you like PS-style game, take PSP. If you don't, then NDSL might be what you are seeking for.

Cola

I believe that most of us would have at least tasted both of them once, and at least gone through this question before. Coke or Pepsi?

I personally prefer Pepsi because Neo chose the Red pill and he's dead. Nah, definitely not because of the color. But it's kinda objective to make a statement here about the two. So who care?

It's helpful lately I find that to have a soft drink in the afternoon at work, while I started feeling at the edge of exhausted, or bored. Human frequently seeks for something that he can rely on to get through the session. I can't recall how much Mr Potato I have digested in front of my pc through out my university time. I guess that's how Popoye gained his power from the can of spinach. Same theory applied!



Haa! I think now I understand why my teacher was so addicted to Coke when she was with us.

做人轻松点

这个星期工作状态比之前好多了。晚上睡觉也比较舒服一点，甚至连如厕也顺畅了许多。人生最畅快的事莫过于此。

转眼间在这家公司已经快半年了，时间不知不觉过得还真快。想想自工作以来，留给自己的时间很明显的减少。回到家后累得只想休息，连我最爱的康熙和大小爱吃每每都留到周末才提得起劲去看。答应教授的作业到现在一点进展都没有。现实啊，扭曲了多少人想要过的舒适生活？

人与人之间的关系真的很奇妙。相处之下发现每个人之间的相同点和差异性综合起来所迸出的火花有时候未必是让人赏心悦目的。兜兜转转发现到头来好像还是自己一 个人过得比较自在，难免欧尔会孤单寂寞甚至感到吃力。我想只好用爱理不理的态度去瞻望。说到这个，我倒觉得我还真在行呢。不理不理，得到的往往让人出乎意料。



早上开会的时候见到桌上有黑红Marker Pen各一支，顺手在记事本上画了眼睛嘴巴。回到座位后又用身边的材料给他画了头发耳朵和鼻子。我想，当这些充满了差异性的线条知道他们被组合在一起的时候竟然会变成一张笑脸，他们至少会觉得赏心悦目吧？



做人，还是该要轻松点啊。

Another Day, Another Toy

我生平用过了好几个usb thumb drive，也买过一部3.5"的 200GB external hdd。倒是不曾拥有过任何一部2.5"的external hdd。基于这个重大的因素，我只好下手买了一部。

这个星期五开始会有为期3天的电脑展。本来计划了要去那里物色，但是上天总是对我爱怜有余，让我机缘下买了这款Buffalo Ministation，160GB。听说这款external hdd从KLCC上掉下来，里面的资料都不会受到损伤。



好啦，我承认我说谎。其实我根本就没有听任何人这样说过。

公司的Admin收到这份包裹后拿给我的时候兴致勃勃地问我为什么天天都会收到礼物。恰好在这前一天，我收到了2个星期前订购的usb wireless adaptor。其一是为了看周遭有没有人忘了设密码，能让我闲时连接用用。其二，是为了让我的NDSL和N95时不时在网络的世界走走看看。这个年代，谁都在讲求自主自由。You know。



这还是在论坛上看到好些人的大力推荐。但是问题是到现在我都还没成功给他在我电脑上设定起来。或许是对Vista平台的软件还没完整的开发吧。别急，先别急……

THE Weekend, not A Weekend

这个周末有点特别。因为自这个周末开始，我的人生告别了一个旧的玩伴，来了一个新的伴侣。走了的是陪了我大约4年的Nokia 7610，来了的就是N95。*羞怯

星期五放工了之后，就立即赶往Bukit Bintang和大哥和大姐聚会。我们到了Low Yat Plaza里面的Sushi King，吃了好一些餐点。可能是聊天的部分比较多一点，吃饱了埋单才发现吃了才将近90块。期间还发现Sushi King的2块钱优惠就在这个月7号到10号。我记得上一次的优惠期间我很幸运地人在云顶。中午期间到当地的Sushi King去吃午餐还真是会吃到偷笑。喜欢吃Unagi本来6块钱一碟的人，可以认真计划一下。

当晚我和大哥在Capital酒店过夜。早上起床后到Low Yat Plaza吃了一顿还算不错的早餐。唯一要挑的就是大家的开店时间都有点迟，大部分的店家都在11点左右才准备要开门做生意。过后，就不免俗地上楼逛逛。大哥突发奇想要买MP4。所幸他没有要求很高，我就给他挑了这款又便宜又大块的Storm。


 

 



操作界面有点过分简单，但是基于重点只是要拿来听歌的话，整体上还算可以。外形设计虽然很明显地有抄袭某著名商品的嫌疑，不过这一点因素对于我们这种程度的消费者不算是一个问题。当然一路上有看到超贵的Sony MP3。谁叫我们早已在金钱和品味之间做了一个选择。

他说他接下来想买Nokia E90。而我，首先有机会的话要先给我的N95换一个健全的外壳。

明天又是星期一了。想到连接不断的工作就立刻有了疲惫的感觉。但是那一定是和以往不一样的星期一。

因为明天的星期一，我已经有了N95。:D

半杯水的遗憾

最近的生活节奏有点让人感到疲惫。一肚子的牢骚找不到地方发泄，身影顿时缩小了不少。没有足够的时间好好地寻找哪一个角落到底是不是藏了哪个关心我的人，却很真实的感受到了很多年前的自己好像终于回来了。

我去了哪里？

半杯水的哲学我不喜欢。忍不住想要怀疑每每提起这个玩意儿的人到底抱着什么样的居心。我却也同时明白了生活中很多事情都没有办法理所当然地美好下去。免不了伤感。

免不了。

突然又想起她。不知道她闭上眼睛的时候有没有想再见我一眼。
