It so lucky..
I still able to sit and write at here..
Almost get involved in an accident..
I drove my car with 90++kmph at straight road..
Suddenly the front car..
Emergency break..
..
That time..
I'm thinking something until too into to it..
When i awake..
The distant is very near only..
No choices..
I must break my car completely..
In a flash light..
I feel..
I'm death now..
Going to kiss the car butt..
Feel the break not working properly..
I'm awake again from the flash light..
Completely press my break till my car engines die..
Not dare to press clutch with break..
Will cause car skiing faster..
..
Thanks God..
I manage to stop my car from kiss the front car..
And car at back not follow me too close..
I thought I had bang or get banged..
Then I start my car..
And press the accelerator..
It can't be press..
I'm wondering..
Did i damage it?
..
I start flash my emergency light..
Try to press my accelerator again..
Failed..
Then try press break and clutch..
Both working fine..
..
Suddenly..
Feel there is something at below of the accelerator..
I pick it up..
It is my umbrella which i put near the door..
It must gone to the place when i break suddenly..
After remove it..
The car run as usual..
..
I'm wondering..
It must be very lucky..
The umbrella not drop below the break..
If so..
Sure I will end up at hospital..
..
Thanks God and my car..
..
Lesson of the story..
DO NOT put anything or whatever below the driver seat..
Driving Lesson..

Unknown, Monday, December 29, 2008Everyone will suffer from sadness..
There is no one in this world did not have any regret and sadness in life..
I do have regret.. and plenty of it..
Important is learn from your regrets..
Some words say..
Age is not a problem for learning..
As long you willing to learn..
Life journey is same as study and learning..
Whatever you go through is a learning process to help yourself develop into a complete person..
..
When you have problem..
It is better to find someone to talk..
Do not keep everything by yourself..
The more you keep..
Headache, suffer, painful, tears..
One by one will visit you..
You only have 1 brain in a life time..
Don't let your own mind do everything..
..
It is painful to see your sadness face..
Tears keep flow down quietly..
I'm ready to listen..
Whatever problem or situation you are..
No matter what the respond I may face..
Is worth it, if you willing to share your thought with me..
Perhaps.. new way may provide to you..
..
Sometimes..
Tears will let you cry out your sadness and regret in life..
When your tears willing to flow unstoppable..
I'm ready to lend my shoulder..
To let your tears, wet my clothes..
No one will laugh when your tears flow is sad tears..
People will laugh, only the tears is happiness tears..
..
The world will keep rotate..
The sun will keep arise and set..
The star will always shining together with the moon..
Don't let the regret always hunt you..
Like no tomorrow..
Let continue the life happily..
And don't let the smile in your face fade out..
..
Hope can see the smile in your face again..
Merry X'mas..
Unknown, Thursday, December 25, 2008This year, when Christmas approach..
I have a strong feeling..
Where I should celebrate, what to do and thinking all sort of plan..
Make me have the Christmas mood more than thinking of Chinese New Year mood..
..
Every year when Christmas approach..
I no need do any planning cause there will be someone waiting for me to celebrate with..
Unfortunately, this year in September, my status had been changed..
Then in November some sweet and sour spices been added..
Things still not change..
Going to celebrate Christmas lonely..
..
Start this morning with some smile on face..
It is a holiday for me..
Although is Christmas..
Enjoying my sleep, fm2009, movie, drama..
Should have take 26 as my offday too..
So I can back hometown and meet my old friends..
To balance up my network..
..
But unfortunately..
My holiday mood..
GONE...
Had to work too once I get call at the support phone..
But cannot blame the person to called me..
They only do their job only..
If blame also blame those company keep make changes..
My holiday since August had been drastically spoiled by them..
It feel very SUCK.. and many things been changes since then..
..
What I can do now..
Life still have to go on..
I still have to live and find new target in life..
Just hope.. Everything will get better and better..
Maybe now I can start plan..
What to do in New Year Eve..
Anyway...
~~Wish Everyone Merry X'mas and Happy Holiday~~

Philosophy of LOVE
Unknown, Monday, December 15, 2008Found something interesting from my mailbox. It's quite true to real life..
**
Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.
Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.
Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.
What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?
If love isn't a game, why are there so many players?
Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.
You can only go as far as you push!
Actions speak louder than words..
The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else.
Don't let the past hold you back, you're missing the good stuff.
Life's short. If you don't look around once in a while you might miss it.
A best friend is like a four leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have.
Some people make the world special by just being in it.
Best friends are the siblings God forgot to give us.
When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there.
True friendship never ends.
Friends are forever.
Good friends are like stars.....you don't always see them, but you know they are always there.
Don't frown, you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
Everything is okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end. Most people walk in and out of your life, but only friends leave footprints in your heart..
If u love something...let it go.
If it comes back to you its yours.....
If it doesn't then it never was.
A kiss is just a kiss until u find the one you love. A hug is just a hug>until its from the one
Shangri-la Lemon Garden Cafe
Unknown, Sunday, November 30, 2008Place: Lemon Garden Cafe, Shangri-la Hotel
Location: Kuala Lumpur.
Price: RM86++ per pax
Time: 12-4pm
Day: Sunday
Went there for buffet. There have a lot variety foods to choose such as Japan (sushi, sashimi,..), Local (sate, roti canai,..) , Chinese (dim sum, noodle,..) , Western (salad, pasta,..), Italian (pizza, spaghetti,..) and Desert (chocolate fountain, fruits,..). Many variety and a lots food look delicious.
Overall, I think this place foods is GOOD.. especially the dim sum is keep warm, then the salmon fish is very fersh.. you can feel the freshness in your mouth when you bite.. The fish and chicken under the Local Cuisine is very delicious.. you can feel the curry and lemon is deep into the meat. Scallop and Oyster was good, did not feel the sand taste when swallow into your mouth.
But there is some foods not in very good condition..
The sashimi (Japan Cuisine) and prawn (Local Cuisine) is not very fresh.. you can feel the meat is not tender enough when u bite. can feel it is "sui sai" or " sandy" when you bite.
I ate too much meat... not much chances to try all their desert. But from my family response, they say.. the ice cream and chocalate fountain is good.. They like to see the ice cream being chopped like teppanyaki. I like the chocolate fountain a lot, can deep much chocolate with the fruits and mashmaro.
Overall response from my family are, the foods are worth paid with the buffet value. We all ate until walk like snail.
VMware Infrastructure Overview
Unknown, Saturday, November 29, 2008Went to a training provided by Training Partner at Melia Hotel Kuala Lumpur. It is about VMware Infrastructure Overview. Melia Hotel is located opposite the Times Square. According to the Instructor, this course normally offer to public with price around RM2k with only 1 day training courses. But this time a bit special, it offer FOC to invited participation (ps. Thanks to CCLien). In this Ballroom, can estimate around 100 participants had involved in this training.
Normally what we use on VMware is a to create another Virtual Machine in our PC with purpose download movie or play games due to incompitable on hosts OS. That we so called VMware Workstation.
In this course, they introduce VMware Infrastructure (VI). This one is completely different entrance with the VMware Workstation. VI had a lot function which for my opinion, is completely useful when doing development and testing process. A Virtual network infrastructure can be build inside the VI with the support of EXS, BRS. It have a remote screen interfaces which provided you totally control of all your nodes and let you do all the configuration and settings such as, set trigger alarm on threshold, setup failover, setup clustering and so on.
I think if there is some spare server or times, going to have a try on this VI. If possible, maybe will try integrate a test environment into this VI.
Kill some times..
Unknown, Sunday, November 23, 2008Found some interesting video when surfing some "bored" website. There is a sight of meteor at Edmonton, Canada. The video is caught by police car dash camera. Quite beautiful the scene and video.
Then I get some interesting link from William.. who is bored at work too. Some funny video edited based on maple story..
Hope can brighten your day...
Jason Mraz - Lucky
Unknown, Saturday, November 22, 2008
Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohoooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, feel the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'm Lost...
Unknown,Last few days... My sense of direction and mindset had been lost... I'm lost again..
Whatever in my mind had been dis-array and not organize. I not sure what I should do in next step anymore.. Something keep running in my mind until I could not predict what she want anymore. I been try keep myself being optimistic.. but the outcome does not the result I want, which cause me feel LOST again. My aims and direction had been started to blur and blurer.. I had been despair and moody recently. Whatever the results will be.. I still hope I could help her out when she face problem in future.. All the memory will keep remain in my mind and heart.. including few memorial song.
Anyway, I would like to say sorry to someone that almost though i'm "ki siao" already. Also thanks to some people that been curious, and willing to listen to my story. And also my "far far away" friends (ps. it not my choice to choose name have almost same sound)... I really do happy to have you guys as my friends..
Maybe next time you guys can help me paste this poster whenever I Lost Again... Hopefully It wont happen...
Jason Mraz - I'm Yours
Unknown,
Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's gonna to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment, maybe sing with me
All - ah peaceful melody
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved
So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
Scooch on closer dear
And I will nibble your ear
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
Please don't, please don't, please don't
There's no need to complicate
Cause our time is short
This is out fate, I'm yours

OpenDNS
Unknown, Monday, November 17, 2008Have a try on OpenDNS when you suffer DNS problem from your ISP. It been ages I had use this OpenDNS, since last time I face the AIMS DNS cannot do yahoo and hotmail login properly. Since the moments, I found out OpenDNS can provide a good solution for domain name query.
Let have a try on this OpenDNS from here.
The DNS address are:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Once set the DNS, restart you PC to effectivily use it. Enjoy!!
Painful..
Unknown, Saturday, November 15, 2008It is already been painful when you lose something important. Does it really mean.. when you lose.. you will lose everything? completely nothing left?
In world, when u lose in football match.. you still can motivated back to win back in next game or next tournament. When you fail in exam.. you still can decided to retake or undergo other exam or start look for job. Everything have choices in world.
Do we need be so cruel to completely kill off any hope until someone cannot be survive anymore. It may true if someone too persistent. But.. If someone already know how to retreat or surrender.. DO you need kill off that person?
It is very painful and sorrow day. Nothing is going right for Year Pig this year.. Hope a new year will arrive soon.
愛してるて忘れるかわかけない
Unknown,Love can be spontaneous enough. It does not need be created by yourself. It will happen by itself when you see someone you think.. "She is the one".. Some people say "Love only happen when we know each other well and start to accept their weakness or strength". But for me.. "Love can completely spontaneous even you did not talk or get to know the person".
Love can be build or created after you start to put effort plus some care plus some understanding plus your precious time with the Special ONE.
It been a fool on me again for too strong believe to be good guy. It really not a good believe when it come to "Be Together With the one you want". Now due to my stupidity believe to be a GOOD GUY had ruined my opportunities with the one I like. I do have a lot chances to make you with me. But why I let loosen on you again. I should have take advantages on the chances and make you as my girl... if there is one more chances.. i do hope so.
Although we only know each other for 12 days.. since our last meet 6 years ago. I can feel the "not stranger" feeling towards you. You do had give me a very special time and make me remind what is important when try add some spices on Love. You do make me realize what type of girl I would look forward as my ideal girl. In this 12 days, it really sweet memory and I will keep in my mind cause you are one of the Special One for me. Although just 12 days, it bring a lot meaning to me. It is very enjoyable when go for movie, dinner, shop and some drink with you.. will always remember "La Bodega". Sometimes... I do feel we have a lot common things.. It is too many, really too many common things between us. I feel very comfortable, warm and enjoyable when with you. Your eyes and smile always make me fall in love with you. Whenever I feel tired.. when see your smile, it will make me completely forget about tiredness. When i see through your eyes... it feel like.. your eyes is talking to me... I do love you and want you be my side all the time. Lil Devil... I want to let you know... you will in my heart forever.. I do hope.. there will a new chances for me to begin with you.
Love and Life are too unpredictable. Everything can come and go so spontaneous without warning.
Do I look like MUSLIM !!??
Unknown, Wednesday, November 5, 2008It been few years, I living prosperly and happily without being misunderstood as Muslim.
Still remember few years back when i still studying in UPM. I went back my hometown Port Dickson, with favo bus number 72. That moment, the bus have few people on it. So i enjoying my mp3 and read the game description I just bought from Terminal 1.
Then an unknown Muslim guy wearing songkok enter the bus and look around. He bypass an indian guy sit at the front row, then by pass a chinese couple, then approach a muslim guy and give them some unknown card, then bypass a chinese guy which seat near my place. Then... he approach me.... and pass the unknown card to me.. I start to have many question mark in head.. I look carefully.. it is their al-quran card... WTF... he though I am muslim le.. Directly my mood become dull and tell him.. "I'm chinese.. no thanks"
I though everything become smooth and fine and wont be recognize as muslim this few years.. but today.. it happen again.
Went to bathroom cause too sleepy in office.. I saw 2 women at doorstep. So I approach them and..
me: "Anything can help you?"
Ws: "We are distributing a piece of paper from bible to anyone non-muslim in this company. Can you help me?" (she show the piece of paper to me)
me: "hmm..." (and i look around the company anddecided to pick up the paper)
Ws: "You is muslim right?"
I become no mood.. completely speechless..
Ws: "Is there any non-muslim in this company...?"
I feel lazy to clarify her that I'm actually Chinese..
me: "yeah"
Ws: "Can you call them and pass this to them?"
me: "k.. I can pass to them" (with un willing mood.. direct take the paper)
Ws: "Thanks.."
I just smile and go aways..
Do I really look like muslim with grey shirt?? How to avoid become look as muslim?

Bumbu Bali
Unknown, Monday, October 27, 2008At Bandar Puteri Puchong, there is a nice Restaurant called Bumbu Bali. Went there before last 2 years.. Shop decoration quite unique.. full of buddha status... and Bali style. The price quite reasonable with the food portion.. can say cheap after you see the food dishes. If not very hungry, better 2 people share a dishes.
Leona Lewis - Better In Time
Unknown, Saturday, October 25, 2008
It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through
Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realise that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gon' be ok
[Chorus:]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time
I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remaind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings
If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that's the path
I believe in
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gon' be ok
[Chorus:]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time
Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is I'll be fine without you
Yes I will
[Chorus: X2]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time
Sky so Grey...
Unknown, Thursday, October 23, 2008Life of a friends in Singapore.. Everyday is a Grey day... fui ar..... Stay in a room fully furnish.. with loneliness, emptiness and... fui'ness.
Late to work
Unknown, Wednesday, October 22, 2008It been 2 days.. I reach at Masjid Jamek Station earlier.. What I mean with earlier... I reach there at 8:55am and my working hours is 9:30am.. From Masjid Jamek to KLCC lrt station only need to passby Kampung Baru and Dang Wangi.. It just 2 station.. Of course.. by logic.. just 2 stations, I will not need more than 30 minutes to reach office.. since it is early morning, the lrt train will keep coming..
BUT.. who know... reach at LRT at 8:55am is not a good things.. You will late to work too.. Cause...

So what time I should reach Masjib Jamek? Since i start work at 9.30am... to avoid lateness.. DO i need arrive at the station at 8:30am??

3. Locker.. thanks for being half day tour guide and the delicious dinner..
adios..
Peace... ^^
Singapore Trip (18-19 October 2008) - Day 2
Unknown,The next day... First destination... Lau Pa Sat (Raffles Place MRT). At first.. I thought this place is some sort like various souvenir selling shop and food stall. When reach here.. my assumptions is wrong.. actually it is a food court.. There have plenty of food style such as Japanese, Korea, Asian, Western food.. The building decoration is quite unique.
Then we go to City Hall (City Hall Station). We walk to Fountain of Wealth and have some photograph. Locker (Goh friends-blogger) told us, this Fountain is Singapore FengShui because there is 5 Suntec Building around this Fountain and the middle of the fountain is located in the center of 5 building just like water keep flow into a palm with 5 fingers.
Then we walk back to Suntec Building and enjoy a Koi Garden which located beside car park. This place, they feed Koi Fish.. All the fish look very healty and fat..
Singapore Trip (18-19 October 2008) - Day 1
Unknown,Reach Singapore at 11 something.. The duration from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore just need 4 hours plus plus... Once we reach there, We wait our dearest friends at Horbour Point Mall (The bus stop at HarbourFront) due to the Tourist Pass only Available at 12pm at HarbourFront MRT station.
Without delay.. have a small walk at Chinatown (Chinatown MRT). When i reach there.. it quite unique.. so traditional... can buy a lot made chinese style product.. especially you can buy some Singapore T-shirt at here, key-chain, souveniers... But sadly.. Around 9:45pm.. the shop start to close... so.. we just walk 1 street and back to station..
Next destination.. Boat Quay/Clarke Quay (Clarke Quay MRT). My first impression is... WOW.. good place for dating.. It is very nice view especially at night.. You can enjoy a boat ride, have chitchat with the loved one at river side, have some drink with friends at bar or pub.. This view was almost the same with Darling Harbour, Sydney. It is a very interesting place.
This end ourfirst day journey.. Suffering leg pain for unstoppable walking..

Give him a call.. to make sure he is on the way.. Confirm he is on the way.. So.. assume he will arrive at 5:45am.. But for heaven sake... He call me back at 5:40am... inform me he forget bring passport and he need go back to get the passport... So ask me to get the ticket first.. and wait at the bus stop... I rush to Corus Hotel Kuala Lumpur (Aeroline bus to Singapore). Saw the bus had arrived.. and call Goh to double check where to get the ticket (ticket cost RM160 for 2 way per person). .. Rush into Corus Hotel to find the counter... Thank GOD... someone is queing and the counter proceed the ticket quite slow due to print machine rosak de.. End up.. collect the ticket after 15minutes which is about 6am.. But Goh shadow still missing... Bus will depart at 6am.. where is he now?? Will he miss the BUS?? But nevermind.. someone still queue at the counter.. expected the bus will delay for few more minutes.. Give him a call.. and knew he at Avenue K.. So.. within few minutes.. start saw his shadow... with tired, sweating, restless faces... Therefore.. we enter the bus and.. have a seat.. His condition was... speechless, tired, thristy and sweating for chasing the time... But... our journey to Singapore will start soon..
One day in Taipei (7 Oct 2008)
Unknown, Friday, October 10, 2008After 2 month non-stop working at Taiwan, at last have some free time for traveling. Our destination is Taipei.
We took a 2 hours and a half travel from TaiChung to Taipei which cost us NTD220 per person.
We reach Taipei at Taipei Metro rides station JingMei. The Taipei Metro rides have unlimited rides pass which just cost NTD200 perday. Then we travel to Station Taipei City Hall located near Taipei 101.
First impression when enter Taipei 101 is.. same with KLCC. Everything is branded and expensive, and the elevator, structure almost the same.
After that we travel to Taipei Zoo. Our main mission is visit Mr Panda. Unfortunetly, Mr Panda not arrive to Taiwan yet. The weather not as good as always. It keep rain, rain and rain. Taipei Zoo is a good place for exercise and keep fit. In 4 hours journey inside the zoo, we had walk for total 3km. Very value for us since we want to diet and just cost NTD60 per entry.
At night we continue our last destination with Shilin Night Market (Jiantan Station). Here can buy Taiwan food, souveniers and have a view on Taiwan "leng lui".
End our journey at Taipei Main Station, return the Taipei Metro rides passes to counter and get NTD50 refund. Then ride bus from Taipei to TaiChung with only NTD120 (feel kena scam by morning Bus which cost extra NTD100).
