Empress and her Eunuch

Well I'm sure everyone knows what's an Empress and what's an Eunuch, well I know you know but yet I would like to describe in detail for you guys.
There you go, defination of Empress;

1. The woman ruler of an empire.
2. The wife or widow of an emperor.

And next up is an Eunuch;

1. A castrated man

   employed as a harem attendant or as a functionary in certain Asian courts.

2. A man

   or boy

   whose testes

   are nonfunctioning or

   have been removed.

3. Informal. An ineffectual, powerless, or unmasculine man.

Okay now after thinking for a while, and relating to one of my EX-FRIEND (glad to call him EX FRIEND), I suddenly realize that the title, "Empress and her Eunuch" is not enough, so after thinking, another word is needed to aptly describe the so called "story", here goes

Dowager;

1. A widow who holds a title or property derived from her deceased husband.
2. An elderly woman of high social station.

Alrite, after modifications, the title should be "Empress Dowager and her Eunuch Toy". Alrite, please do not ask me to explain what's a toy ok?

Once upon a time in China during the something BC or what, there lived a happy man called, Mou Tam.Y. He had a good family life, and a good circle of friends who always stood up for him. End of story for Mou Tam.Y.

Next up, the empress called Empress Oh Sai.L who was suppose to be wearing sack cloth after the death of the Emperor, instead, she spotted Mou Tam.Y plucking some flowers nearby the palace, and immediately called for her guards to capture Mou Tam.Y and cought him they did with a guni sack. The empress was very fond of Mou Tam.Y but was a little bit agressive in her persuit and accidentally castrated one of Mou Tam's ball. This caused alot of pain and agony for Mou Tam, and of course with the help of his friends, managed to escape when the empress momentarily found herself a new "TOY" to persuit.

A rejuvinated Mou Tam lived on in spite of his "deformed" you know I know. But still, that scar of his imposed a HUGE FEAR of the empress. True enough, the empress dowager gave up on her persuit of her new toy and started a FULL SEARCH for Mou Tam.Y.

His friends and family tried their very best to protect him, but to no avail. There came a faithful day when he was once again cought in a guni sack.

Well, you might think that being someone the empress is fond of is suppose to be good new, hell NO! She ordered that all his family and friends be hung and mutilated, fed to birds coz she deem them the DEVIL! And a stumbling block to her relationship with him. Too bad they escaped but now had nothing to do with him (anyway this part is not so important).

To ensure loyalty of Mou Tam, the empress ordered that his other ball be castrated but that wan be left, u know I know again la. He had no choice but to perform dances and shows for her entertainment.

That's all for now, hope you guys can add more to this little story and expand it....

Baby Elizabeth

My good ol friend James just gave birth, OPPSSS sorry I mean, his wife just gave birth to Baby Elizabeth, whom we managed to snap a picture of her during her first day..


Isn't she adorable?

By the way, I visit her about once a week, and watch her grow. She's already 2 weeks old, and here are some updates,




I'm Saying CHEEEZZEEE QUICK!!!!


OH NO!!! I LOOK LIKE DADDY!!!!!!


She is a cute little thing, no doubt about it.....

Daddy's Bday

Man I've been really lazy these pass few weeks, lazy to blog I mean. Well, dad's birthday just past, we had a nice family dinner at Hoi Kei near our house. We went through all means to make him happy, bought him a cake, blah blah, and of course in return, he gave as a superlicious time.

Dad's a very nice person, jovial, always laughing and a good joker. Because he has been soooooo nice to all of us, mom and I decided to surprise him this year. Secretly, we went for present hunting and FINALLY! We decided to get him a handphone. Yeap, I've spend my gaji for his H/P and secretly hoping he'll get a better one for me next time(just kidding).

Anyway, thank God he LOVED IT!

Of course it wasn't without some scenario. You see, I packed the gift up with newspaper and then a wrapper(sorry lazy to upload the pictures, will do it next time ya), coupled with a plastic bag with "coffee" logo. At first touch, he said, "You all arrrrr, buy me underwear again arr??"

Well, I guess he must have some bad experiences with "underwear" the last time....

Anyway, we are happy that he's happy. Back to sleep now...adios

SIGH SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And a big slap for thinking I'll have another public holiday, if you think Lee Chong Wei was bad, this is worst!!!

Sighhh SIGHHHHH

And I thought there was another public Holiday coming.....

Work's almost over

It's been almost 3 months working, to be frank, its been quite enjoyable, besides slight hitch here and there, you know la, work sure got problem wan la. So far, the biggest problem is the lost of Albert.You see, Albert is like my dictionary, anytime I face problems(mostly laziness), where I find it hard to locate the correct codes for particular modules, ALBERT'S THERE TO SAVE THE DAY!!! Too bad his internship only last 3 months, yeap 3 fruitful months, bye Albert! Hope u read this, WE MISS U!!! lol, just kidding...

Well, so far, the only 1 stable module I've finnished is, Folder Management, you know like the windows explorer?? just that its for managing folders in Speedminer blah blah. Speedminer is truely a powerful datawarehousing software(please pay me for advertising). By the way, I think they are looking for programmers now, so anyone of you interested please visit here.

College will be starting soon, oh yeah, before you guys plan to apply for the post as programmer there, make sure you can score for their so called aptitude or attitude or so forth test, ITS NOT EASY!!! Just a clue, its about "cache", go find out yourself, DON'T BE LAZY! and for those who are not interested, ignore this paragraph. And, another thing is, options for food really sucks there...

Well well well, college is starting soon, can't really figure out what I would do with this current Job, definately if something goes wrong with my module, I'll have to go back and help out, but then wouldn't want to work without pay rite??

You Are 13 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

Well, sometimes you just can't hide your age can't you?

Week in Review

Geesh, time pass really fast don't you think so? Its been almost a week since dad bought me this new PC(sorry lazy to take pictures), and my brothers have been busy hogging it playing games. Hrmm, well we had some issues with our new PC, apparently, we needed to install windows XP with SP2. Don't ask me why, the technician kautimed it for us.

Anyway, the next problem arose when my parents had clashing ideas of where to place the new PC. But in the end, we sort it out nicely and now both PC are sitting side by side(shit lost all privacy!). Well, would really count it God's grace that we got this unit at a bargain.

I'm more than satisfied with its performance, 3ghz with 1gb RAM, more than I can ever immagine. But the con is, you know la, little brothers hogging the pc(sorry I have to repeat).

Work has been quite interesting of late, well boss wanted the software to be able to send SMSes. Hrmm, well it may sound useful and interesting, but the hardware invovled(a GPRS modem) cost about RM1k, pretty irrelevant for smaller businesses, well unless we are targetting only big ones, which I think currently, YES...

With so many things happening, thank God our family is kept safe. Sunday was a fun filled day, full of truth and laughter, enjoyable futsal game. It is the first time we played futsal using some sort of volleyball. Next up, over to "Rabbit Cafe" for supper and last but not least, watch chicken little at Danl's place. Chicken little is definately a MUST WATCH CARTOON! Well, even though I doze of for the final 1/2 hour, IT'S STILL A DARN GOOD SHOW!!!!!

Monday, we had HOLIDAY!!!! So, dad, James and I went over to Lowyat to buy a laser printer "Konica Minolta" which is currently offering a unit for RM345. Dad took the opportunity to bless his lil brother. Next up, bought another 512mb RAM for our new PC WOOOOOHOOO!!!!!

I took 1/2 day today, suppose to be MC but because the comp says as a trainee, I'm not entitled to MC claims, so might as well take 1/2 day, rest at home and of course, freshen up to go church.

Wednesday will be another whole new day, Amen.

Monkey Kong

Just watched the Big Ape last Sunday, well I wasn't a real big fan of King Kong when it was released way back, so I really didn't expand much either. Nevertheless, I slept through the first hour, it was super boring man! By the way, many a times I woke up asking, "Is Kong out yet?"

And one of my friend answered, "Its a three hour movie la, you expect to see Kong for that long meh? BORING WAN!"

Alright, I got his point, nevertheless, things turn exciting when they landed on this gila island with 100ft walls. Shiok man, see their head kena whack, see them kena bite, those aborigins are POWER CRAZY!!! Anyway, back to the main stream, the action after that was ok, didn't sleep, that is why its ok.

Well, there might be some derailed storyline here and there, but overall, the movie is not bad lor, at least someone who doesn't enjoy movie much say it is ok means it is OK lor.

Oh yeah, they didn't use much computer animation for Kong, infact, I think they use the original method of ..dunno what it is called, that is why Kong's movement might not be as real as we all hoped for.

Week of prosperity

There are many interpretations for the word "Prosperity", some measure in terms of financial wealth, some measure in terms of properties, some measure in terms of this and that. As for me, my personal term for prosperity has to do with the one word non of us can't live without, "FOOD!"

Well, we had our company lunch on Monday, in celebration of a successful symposium held at the Corus Hotel at Jalan Ampang. We had things like pork meat (YUM YUM!), vegetable(without the "S"), lala, petai prawns, this and that blah blah. Well, its not always we have lunch with fellow colleagues and boss together, so I took the opportunity to whack 3 servings of rice. Well, guess I was the last man standing after that lunch, it was so darn heavy I could hardly move.

Anyway, I had another pack of Nasi Lemak about an hour after that...

Today (Thursday), went for another big meal in supposedly Serdang, but ended up in Sri Kembangan. Well the food was pretty expensive, nearing RM200 for a meal with drunken steam crab, PATIN!!! I LOVE PATIN!!!, vegetable, pork and thai style chicken, ahh good taufu....

Nothing much going these few days, nothing interesting at all, the only thing going on with me is doing documentation for ETL, one module of the company's software, the largest module in fact.

Besides that, I've been busying myself by teaching Junbo some programming, try to improve myself, and so forth. Well, just can't really sit still at one position all the time you know....

A shipwreck experience

True enough, there's a huge relief from work, as finally, I feel much more free, so much so there was this urge to pen down a story.

It happened long long time ago when you or I wasn't even existing, maybe during our granpa granma, or ah pek and ah lians time, oh sorry, nowadays oso got ah peks and ah lians and ah bengs and so forth, anyway, it happened at a time when Yap Ah Loy was buzy exploring the world, oh shit was it Yap Ah Loy? Oh no, forgot what was that fellah's name, the one who visited Melaka and got Cilaka"ed".

Alright, now next up was this young man by the name of Ah Tan, who like travelling alot. His dad own a fishing boat, a junk actually, you know those boat with flat bottom and very high tech sails? Yeap those were the days, anyway, I made up the fishing part, I am not sure myself if junks were used for fishing. So one day, he decided to earn his own money by doing small small things like, designing more efficient fishing nets, or thinking of ways to curi tulang, or develope ways to make better Milo drink.

One fine day, while out fishing(one again I have to clarify that it might not be fishing), a HUGE THUNDERSTORM hit and overturned his boat. Winds gushed mightily breaking the sails at first. So mighty was the storm that his hi-tech sails that were suppose to withstand even the strongest wind couldn't bear it anymore. The storm was almost similar to the one in the movie "Perfect Storm". Ah Tan, being the main character of this story, survived of course, hanging by some broken wood for his life.

Three days pass when a HUGE boat appeared our of nowhere. The kind captain offered Ah Tan help by sacrificing one of his small emergency boat. Ah Tan was bemused, "Can't I just follow your crew to land?"

The captain replied, "I would like to, but we are sailing aimlessly at this particular ocean too, so I suggest you take the small boat with a little bit of supply and, GOOD LUCK!"

With that, Ah Tan set off wondering in the little boat. Another day passed when he he came across another boat. This time, the captain offered him a compass and guide back to his homeland.

Ah Tan was of coursed very very happy, and in no time at all, found his homeland.

Sorry for the boring story, so happen it reflected my situation working. Well you see, boss wanted me to add something in BTS(some module la) and it is common knowledge amongs the programmers in our office that, trying to decode BTS is liken to being shipwrecked in the ocean. The person who coded it, well left the company and a HUGE headache for anyone who tried to take over.

But thanks to one of our senior, who stopped by and provided the little rescue boat, managed to find the little part that needed extras, but still I was stuck. Then came another senior, offering his compass and at last, I'M DONE!!!!

Well working in a field where you are not familiar with really takes alot of patience, not from our part, but from the seniors who need to spend time listening to your questions and answering them without confusing you too much. Well I think I overdid it, so much so one of our senior left the company almost exactly one month after I officially join.

Anyway, was expecting a company lunch tomorrow, but once again, posponed(second time) to next Monday. Seriously though, I'm expecting oysters, clamps, lots of seafood, in short, A SUPERB BUFFET!!! But once again, I can only tell myself, "Dream on boy, dream on....."

What hurts?

Well there are many term when you talk about "hurt". Some are super sensitive towards pain, some are not so yet they are more sensitive, err sensitive as in, sensitive la something like, cannot take jokes and all, (you can try clicking here if you really want to know). Alright, I might get crucified for using the example there but....nvm la. Anyway, I found something that kinda hurt me today, ok maybe not really hurt, but I just don't know what kind of title to put in, so mah put in "Hurt" lor.

Was makaning at a restaurant near my house by the name of Hoi Kei. This restaurant specializes in Fish Head which they cook with oyster sauce, lots of garlic, and it taste FANTASTIC!!!! Well, dad ordered 2 plate of fish head, ho jien(egg fried with oyster), Thai style pork leg, yau mak fried with fuu yee and salad squid. After makaning, I felt a little urge to do small business, that's when I went to the kitchen looking for the loo and relieve myself. The master cook is a very friendly guy indeed, when he saw me, he greeted me and told me, "Go ahead la! You can use the toilet wan.."

Well of course I gave him a smile and proceeded to wee wee(Not wesley wee). Upon opening the door and stepping out, the nice master chef posted me a question, "Are you James' brother?"

Of course I went, "................"

Do I really look that matured? NO RITE!!!

Wedding!

Just attended George's wedding today, well din really attend, just help serve food at the makan area. Geesh, can't really remember how long George and Feli pak tor liao, dunno how many fruitfull years, they tie the knot lor, another happy ending!

Anyway, I think George must be pretty excited on his big day, he actually order SO MUCH FOOD!! that we servers didn't have the time or space to display all the food for the attendees to choose from. We had to cramp in 18 types of dishes(more than 18 actually) and ended up displaying less that that and had to keep the rest at the back because we just ran out of space. To be frank, everything was in a MESS!! But hei, we enjoyed it. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the fact that none of us get to eat first before the visitors came down...so sad.

Hei George, if you reading this I suggest you make it up to US SOON!! HAHA

Anyway, this is the first time I experience something PetPet always kena, "weak knee". To be frank, I really enjoyed myself today, it was the first time I was being so RUDE friendly to all the visitors, you know asking them to help themselves tell them not to be shy, joke with them etc etc and of course rush them, you know the line was FREAKIN PILIN UP!!!

Anyway, that's it for a fun day, will be waiting for the next round, you see, one of our friend(who is very closely related to Feli), was posted a question, "So when you getting married?"

He spontaneously responded, "Wait for George first la.."

So, we should be expecting another wedding soon right??....

My day in Review

Well, helped out for the symposium today(what to do, staff mar, forced to carry stuff, shoot video, carry stuff and carry stuff). Can't really conclude much Boring mar it was too interesting even for someone like me to understand. FINE! I ADMIT! Didn't enjoy it because the food SUCKED! Seriously though, was hoping for a big luncheon or buffet at least once for the whole day, ended up with sandwiches, tasteless fried rice, sandwiches, tasteless fried beehoon, and lots of plain water. It is nowonder I had gastric on the way home(which was literally JAM JAM JAM ALL THE WAY!).

I notice one thing today, I can't really handle stress, sorry, my mistake, what I meant is that, I can't really handle people who can't handle stress, or something like that lar, you know lar, I know lar, liddet lar, nevermind la.

Don't really want to go into details of the symposium. Just that everything was smooth and the oversea speaker really took our time, you know suppose to end at 5 also he must lengthen everything and cause us to sleep la, play game la, this la that la, anything la, I even had time to create a wall paper for my phone on Jane's PC. I think there was abit of technical error today, instead of promoting our product, "Speedminer" the speaker was promoting more of their product, "Ensemble" from Intersystem. Once again, I wouldn't want to get too detailed.

The one person I really dreaded to meet was Mr. Teoh, someone I met yesterday(Wednesday) to take a video shoot of his testimonial. Of course he was totally excited and asked us when will we publish the shoot! It was suppose to be today, but no thanks to Michael Ong's photo editing skills, you know I know la. Thank God he did see me, and he was very nice to not say anything about a missing video clip.

Did I mention I was at IOI resort in Putrajaya yesterday? Well, it was the most sucky experience one can have. Our clerk forgot to tell us that the meeting is cancelled and you know I know again la, spend dunno how many hours(my first time there and my colleague's dunno how many times there) getting there. We even went up all the way to the 11th floor when we enquired for Mr. Choo. Well, they nicely redirected us to Mr. Cheong whom I so happen to bump into today too. To be frank, I enjoyed the little trip yesterday to IJN and IOI, what more, I ate alot too....

Seriously though, don't really look forward to tomorrow, I spend the whole evening on my bed, and the next thing I know is, tomorrow have to work...............

Internet Problems

Well, we are all living in a digital world, a world where we can do endless search, a world we come to live with and can't live without, a world called internet, and almost all of use are using, "StreamyX" which is to me, more like suckyX, y sucky? Cause I couldn't connect for the past 4 days, why ? I DON'T KNOW! Made me format my pc, do this and that, and suddenly, it is up and running again for no apparent reason.

Well, dad has been really pushing me to fix it, and to be frank, I have not a single clue how to fix this stupid problem stated with "ERROR ^&*" oh sorry i mean "error 678".

Finnished building the 2 modules that was allocated to me, and well, have been pretty free. So now I'm testing out their software, trying to find bugs, and found a few I did, will leave it to the seniors to fix it, not that I don't want to fix it myself, if I were to touch anything inside, things will go BAD REALLY BAD, ok let me paint u a picture :-

At first we get an error like "something is undefined", if i were to do anything, we'll end up with "CSP GATEWAY ERROR" which means, KOYAK!

Well, maybe because I am too free in the office, boss ask me to go IJN and IOI tomolo to interview their dunno who la.

Ok time to sleep, at last I get a chance to update my blog, but don't know why the javascripts aint working for this blog page.

Lazy Day

Tuesday - Man, what a day, totally lost at work, nobody to disturb(everyone's busy), boss walking around, can't play a fool, shit, head spinning, dunno what I'm doing sitting infront of the PC so long. Well, for someone who has such short concentration span(that's me), really regretted not being able to relax like I usually do.

Was having a hard time squeezing the juice out of my brain just to concentrate on what I'm doing. Shit, I don't even know what I'm writting now! Well, another long day ahead, I guess I'll pass writting extra stuff for the day....

New Skin

Well, it's been awhile since I've touch my blog's skin, thought of building one from scratch. Well, have started a little here and there, but it will take a long time, since I'm not that free, only limited time during the weekends.

Still looking for a suitable theme for it, any ideas? maybe just put some circles here there everywhere...

WEEKENDS!!!!!

Everyday feels so long when you're sitting infront of the computer without internet, I'm not talking about streamyX or what, its the work place, yeap, no internet! Hrmmm, seriously, the past 2 weeks has been abit of a steep learning curve for me, programming is easy at the same time hard! Well, there are no words to explain.

Chun Eng, my source of information and refuge is leaving the company soon, well guess I'll just have to bug him constantly for the next week, give him some memories before he leaves, anyway, wish him all the best in his new company, and may he have more trainees to bug him next time! Yio, sorry for being so buggy...

The electricity died this afternoon, about 11.30p.m. when we were happily working(ahem). The first person to really rejoice was of course me. Well, I was busy trying to complete one small module, adding this and that, really needed the break. Went for early lunch, really and was told to get back in 1 hour time but really hoped it would be much longer. Was given a double blow just when I found out a bug in my current module, and was thinking of ways to solve it, in comes, gotto create another module first. Good thing Kenneth will be helping me out this time, so it shouldn't be a problem, yet.

Felt like ages since I've posted something, hopefully will be able to find more interesting things to post in the mere future.
