This morning, when I drove my car to buy newspaper at the shop near the neighbourhood, I heard a shocking, stunning news!

‘King of Pop‘ – Michael Jackson is dead at age of 50 years old after a cardiac arrest. At first, I couldn’t really believe it. But it’s true.

I remember when I was still very small, my dad used to play a cassette of Michael Jackson, ‘Black and White’. That time my brother and I were not clear who was the guy singing those songs. We just enjoyed the songs. When we grew older to know more about Michael Jackson, that cassatte kept in my dad’s car was gone, as the car got stolen by someone.

Before this, I was very excited to know that Michael Jackson would come to Malaysia to have concert. I was patiently waiting for Michael’s concert. But now, it all becomes bubbles. I’d had missed out the first concert Michael had in Malaysia. I was still studying at high school. My parents didn’t allow us to go for the concert, as we were too young for it. I still remembered how excited my high school English teacher, Ms Lily Fu was, after attending the concert together with her daughter.

There’s no words that I  can explain my feeling for it…

Michael Jackson is dead, after a cardiac arrest.

Woo….
It’s coming soon… very soon… Transformer Revenge of The Fallen…

Tommorrow  will be the big day…

Can’t wait to watch the movie.

I’d bought the movie tickets for friday midnight show, via online payment.

This is the first time for me to buy movie tickets online and pay online. Usually, I’d call to reserve tickets. But I just found out that, if I call to reserve tickets, the seats available for me will be the seats at the front. Total of 6 rows of seats counting from the screen, for me to choose when I collect my tickets at the tickets counter, 45 minutes before the show.

For e-ticketing, I can choose any seats at the middle section. What a big different for tele-reservation and online e-ticketing, for choosing the seats. And I pay the same price plus extra RM 1 for both tele-reservation and e-ticketing

Anyway, glad that I have tickets for Transformer Revenge of The Fallen.

Proton had just released their new car model – Proton Exora.

I personally, think that this is a great model, with reasonable price, around RM72k. From next week onwards, the loan interest from bank for buying local car will decrease about 0.15%.

Here are some features of an interesting Proton Exora:
1. Hydro Forming Sub-frame Technology
2. Dual airbags
3. High Tensile Steel Cage
4. ABS & EBD
5. Electronic control side mirror + side turn signal
6. Intelligent electronic body control programme

and etc

I promise…

I really don’t want this anymore… This kind of experience…

Remember last few days, starting from Thursday were really hot. No rain… Hot weather…

Hot weather and no rain, no air-cond were not really big deal compare to my experience, together with my friends.

One of our friend, Dr Li a traditional chinese medical doctor from China, was giving therapy to 2 patients (who are also our friends) at our rented house. The therapy is called ‘Solar Term Moxibustion‘. During it, we didn’t turn on the fan, as advised by Dr Li.

Solar Term Moxibustion

It was almost 2 hours of sweating…

By the time, when it was finished, it was already 12 midnight. We all were thinking of taking bath before going to bed. 

Ah…  Gosh… No water supply….. Ah… Eh….

About half an hour ago, there was still water from tap. But then, here, now, no water…

There were scolding sound around, why no water supply… We were all so angry…

You know…

As usual, when there’s no water supply, or water supply cuts off, you can still get some water. It’s cut off slowly. The water running from the tap gets smaller and lesser. Bit by bit. It’ll just take some times to really cut off the water supply. Usually you get this little time to save up some water for backup.

So that night, it was sudden cut off of water supply.

What we had for backup, for use was only a bucket of water in the bathroom. About 30Litres… That’s all… And that house have to water tank – ‘Tangki’ water..

30 litres water to flush the bowl only… 

Luckily enough we still had some boiled drinking water for us to wash our face and bruch our teeth.

So, we couldn’t take bath… with our smelly and sweating body, we had to go to bed

Thinking of… Never mind we might still get back water supply the next morning. Then, all things could be settle.

Sun raise…

No water… No water….

The reason…

Simple, some one in that same housing area, digged the road side, causing the the leaking of water from the pipe.

Only in morning that there were people sent to check things out… eventhough we had called up to complain that there was no water supply at 1 am.

What can we do? Wait… for it to get repaired lo…

Still… I need to go to work, thinking of ‘Ok, it’s just only half day work. After work, can take bath.’

Too bad… The damage was so serious that we didn’t even have idea when it’ll get repair.

What we had were…

1. smelly body

2. smelly bowl

3. messy kitchen

4. no water

Guess what?!

We had to buy mineral water to mop the floor, wash the dishes, flush the bowl, clean the bathroom…

Other people go to swimming pool to swim. But, we did an extra-ordinary thing. We went to pay few dollars for the entrance fees to swimming pool, and took bath at the bathroom there. Ha ha…

The water supply came back only after 8pm. Ended our no water supply trip. Thank you so much.

Wow…
It’s been more than 2 months, that I didn’t post any message on my blog…

Surprise to me…

Anyway, for this 2 months were really a long period of time. I didn’t get much time to get online as to allow me to post any blog post here. But now, I’m going post regularly as usual.

To all my blog reader, sorry for waiting and thank you very much for the supports..

I just found out that Yahoo just changed its logo for this coming Christmas.

Last week, the logo was featuring with horse ride. Unfortunately, I didn’t capture any of that picture. While now, the Yahoo logo is featuring with ice skating.

Here are some pictures that I’d captured…

I personally like this.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year…

I just received an email from Google Adwords Team…
It was about termination of Google AdWords Preferred Cost Bidding…

Preferred Cost Bidding is being retired as a bidding option for all AdWords campaigns as of January 26, 2009. This change will take place in two stages:

(1) As of right now, preferred cost bidding still works in existing campaigns where it has already been selected. But it is no longer an available option when advertisers switch bidding types or create a new campaign.

(2) On January 26th, preferred cost bidding will disappear completely. You should switch all your existing preferred cost bidding campaigns to other bidding formats before that date.

Two other AdWords bidding options — Conversion Optimizer and Budget Optimizer — are good alternates to preferred cost bidding. Conversion Optimizer is especially good for those focused on conversions and return on investment, and Budget Optimizer is helpful for smaller users who want to get the maximum number of clicks on a fixed budget. You can learn more about these different bidding options here: http://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=60673&hl=en

Learn how to change your bidding type here: http://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=114616&hl=en

If you take no action in your existing preferred cost bidding campaigns by January 26th, those campaigns will switch automatically to manual bidding. The latest Max CPC or Max CPM bids set by the preferred cost system will become your new manual bids. From then on you’ll need to change your bids manually.

Company Annual Dinner 2008

Just had our company annual dinner last saturday, at Oversea Restaurant, Armada Hotel, Petaling Jaya.

To my surprise, when I arrive at the front door of the restaurant, I saw 2 couples standing there to welcome their wedding dinner guests. This was usual, as every year we had our annual dinner at year end, November, there would be many couples having their wedding dinner at the restaurant.

My surprise was that, one of the guy was my primary classmate. My first sentence to him was ” Why you didn’t invite me?”, as he seems like he was shock as he didn’t invite me, but I turned up. Haha…

I did tell him, I’m here for the annual dinner, not his wedding dinner. He was relief….

It was a great night…
