Quake & Shake



Yesterday was going as normal as always only until around 6.15 pm, when i was packing my things to go home, suddenly i can feel my desk is shaking. At first i thought it was just my feeling. But later i discover that my fellow colleagues also feeling the same thing. Everybody starts to panic and rushing down the building and saves themselves. It was quite a wake up call though.

Only today i managed to read stories regarding yesterday's trembling. I discovered that there was an earthquake that struck western Indonesia that triggered landslides and trapped thousands of people. Until today it is confirmed that 200 people have been killed due to the incident. You can read the rest of the story here.

Indah Khabar Dari Rupa



Guess the food yourself

Last night is one of the day that i would never forget. After buying off things at Alamanda, me & my cousin planning of having a good dinner but don't know which place would be best. After a while then only we decide where to have our dinner. I've read about the place in Kosmo newspaper. Other people says it's nice, so there's no hesitation between us. Our stop, somewhere in Bandar Baru Bangi.

Reached the place around 9pm, we saw a lot of people over there. First thought that this place must be good. Without further delay, we ordered the so-called famous soup all the peoples are talking about.

The when our order came, first thing first, we have our first sip of the so-called delicious soup. Guess what happen? Me & my cousin started to make *that weird looking face. All that we can taste is the taste of the chilli in it. Garam mahai sangat ka lani? Rasa "turr" nk mampuih. We try to add some sambal into the soup, hoping that it will taste better. But sadly it gets worse. My cousin n i started to cry by ourselves. Meleleh ayaq mata & ayaq hidung semua cukup. Memang merecit. Dah macam tengok cerita sedih hindustan.

As for conclusion, that is the first & the last time i'll be there in that restaurant. Tobat tak mau dah makan kat situ. Baik la aku pi Ani Sup Utara ja semalam. I don't know if the soup was supposed to be good & last night was just our unlucky day. But i've just had it enough. Haish. And for the consequences, i have to bought 1 large set of Double Cheeseburger to cover up my lousy dinner last night. The end.

Cheers.


*the kind of face you make when you taste a lousy food which you think it was damn good.

Public Nuisance



It was Saturday & i was all planning on having a good weekend. I woke up at 10am, do some housekeeping, have my bath...just like normal person. My girl is coming back to KL, ETA at 2.30 pm & i have to go and fetch her. After performing my Zohor prayer, i go out to settle my bills & have my way to KL.

Now comes the interesting part, when i arrived somewhere near Serdang and it was a massive traffic jam. I never thought of anything until i remember about the ISA rally. I saw the banner somewhere in Sentul recently. I thought i could avoid the massive jam by using the SMART tunnel and it all ends up the same. Stucked at nearly 2 hours and i just cannot take it. My girl called me to inform that she also stucked in a massive traffic jams. What a coincidence. I just pretend that i like it very much. Only at 4.30 i managed to fetch my girl at LRT Sentul Timur.

I just wonder what is all about of having this rally? All those protesters really got what they want? Do they managed to get ISA abolished? Do they achieved their objective of the rally? Or it's just a stupid public nuisance?

From what i understand, one of the purpose of our life is to make other peoples life better. What happen here is just not acceptable. The rally by the protesters cause a massive traffic jams, roads closure and other problems. People are late for their appointment and sadly have to went through a sea of cars to get to destination and i nearly bang a motorbike who stupidly manoeuvre in front of my car. Lucky i don't hit him or else it could be worse. Moreover, according to Federal Territory Ministry, they estimated a loss over RM200 million. That's a sum of number dude! Kudos to the protesters! What the fish. I hope they are happy of themselves. Idiots..

Public Enemies




Yesterday i'm all geared up to go & watch movie at the cinema. At first i felt like was torn between Transformers 2 & Public Enemies. Yes people, i haven't watch Transformers 2 yet. Pity me. My stop, at Alamanda Putrajaya to watch movie with my girl. After making up several discussions, we decide to go & watch Public Enemies which is played by one of my favorite actor, Johnny Depp.

As for the movie review, Michael Mann's John Dillinger movie "Public Enemies" is slow to heat up and never quite comes to a boil. At first i thought it was an action-packed movie but ended up much like a cowboy drama. The storyline was good though but i think the director lacked the X-factor that supposed to be put in together in the movie. The story is a bit slow and made me yawn several times in the cinema. Again, the storyline was good but the story build up very slowly and didn't reach the climax after all.

As for conclusions, i would say that the movie is not up to my expectation. Rating: 4/10. I should have watch Tranformers 2 yesterday. Dang!

Cheers.

New Day, New Place, New Experience


Today, i've started on my new day of work at Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in Cyberjaya. It's a new experience though i had worked before in AMD Penang for 1 month. The atmosphere here was good and very peaceful. All of the colleague are very friendly. Currently i'm residing in Seksyen 1 Bandar Baru Bangi.

It's a bit hard for me starting off my life again in Klang Valley after spending half years after graduation in Penang. I really missed my family: Ayah, Ibu & Tikah. 6 months being in Penang really make me feel a bit homesick. Wish you guys were around here. I miss my family.

But life goes on. I need to do what must be done. I have a mission here. Being one of the best in AMD. The future is fusion. For those who may not know what AMD is all about, it's Advanced Micro Devices, the sworn rival of Intel. Tq.

Cheers.

RIP : Michael Jackson Dies in LA Hospital



Today the world has been shocked by the death of the sensationally gifted child star who rose to become the "King of Pop" and the biggest celebrity in the world, Michael Jackson. Jacko was announced death at the UCLA Medical Centre. His brother, Jermaine said that Jacko had suffered the cardiac arrest in his home.

The world has lost one of the great entertainer ever born. As for myself, i grew up listening to his songs like Black & White, Dangerous, The Way You Make Me Feel & many more. How could i not remember this pop legend. Let bygone be bygone. He's no longer in this world but his spirit remains within his songs. A tribute to Michael Jackson. You're the king.

Cheers.

500ml Blood



Yesterday, i've done things which i never had done before. I felt a bit nervous at first, but it turns out to be ok later on. It was never in my mind until my senior engineer ask me to do so. I thought he's joining me, but in the end, it's only me & my another friend ended up donating blood. It feels good though.

Now i know i'm the O-blood type person. Now everybody will hunt me down for my blood. LOL. I hope my blood can really save peoples live. Cheers.

KG.com


Last Sunday i went on to a futsal tournament somewhere in Kg Jawa, Penang. That gonna be the first and the last time i'll ever played in their futsal tournament. Basically the tournament was sucks. Our team arrived at 8 am just to wait until 9.40 for the game to kick off. Janji melayu katanya. The court was sucks. It just a plain, wracked up cement futsal court. What a pity. Mainly, ours is the only outsider team not from Kg Jawa. So, we've been treated quite harshly. They really made us look like Gaijin. Eventhough not all of them, but most of them do.

Quarter final, our team lose 1-0 to the Kg Jawa junior team. Thanks to our own goal mistakes. But that's not the point i'm highlighting here. The quarter final was a memorable one. We have been treated very harsh. I've nearly lose my leg. The defender is nearly twice my size. He's been banging me up. So do my team mates. That's not football bro. Nak gaduh, pi tempat lain la. They've been kicking legs more than the balls. Dah macam nak gaduh je aku tengok. I expect a fair play but it turns out to be the other way round. Cukup kena maki hamun caci maki semua.

Conclusions: The match was held at Kg Jawa, the teams are all from Kg Jawa (except for our team), the refs are from Kg Jawa...what more can u expect. Fair play? Not this time mate! La ni baru aku paham mcm mana rupa jaguh kampung. Baru ja aku tgk hari ahad lepas. Kudos to them for organizing the event. Open competition konon. Nampak sgt takut nk bersaing. Patutla bola sepak kita tak maju sampai skrg. Melayu....apatah lagi. NO comment.

Cheers.

A Story To Tell




After 3 & a half years spending my time in UiTM, i've finally graduated with a bachelor's degree in Information System Engineering. I admit it's not an easy task for me to get this degree. Starting out in science stream during high school, pursuing to physical science during matriculation...it's out of my imagination that i would take a degree in IT field. But after all, it's my own choice to take this degree. I still can recall the question that my mother did ask me when i've just finished my SPM, "Man tak minat nk amik programming ka?". It was really not what i'm thinking in my mind, at least at that point of time. It seems like my mother already predicted my future path. After all, she's my precious mother.

Back to the story, it was not an easy task for me obtaining this degree. My path, perhaps, is not as same as my other colleague. I've not graduated in time for "some silly" reason. I tried to avoid, but it seems like other people just dragged me into it. It feels a bit awkward & lonely too. But alhamdulillah, it all ends well

Here, i would like to thank all my lecturers for the never ending support that they have provide me. They are the backbone of my success. I never know if i could repay their kindness towards me. An infinity thanks especially to my supervisor, Pn Aishah Ahmad, who never give up on me all the way. She's the ultimate support that i've had along the way. Not forgetting Cik Rosdiana & Pn Wan Amalina. I owe you all so much. Also not forgetting my friends, colleagues & college mates, thank you all so much. It means nothing without all you guys.

Thanks again for all. Cheers.


It Takes A While



After taking a long 7 months break, i'm back to blogging again. Damn...it takes a while for me to kick it up again. Here i come again fellas.
