Banjir Malaysia (Malaysian Flood)

2009-11-11T18:22:00.003+08:00

First of all, I'm apologizing for the use of English because I can't write this in Bahasa Melayu or I will sound like your Bahasa Melayu teacher in school. I've already mentioned previously that I will not use English anymore in this blog but I really can't commit to that promise. It is better to express my mind in English because if I'm using formal Bahasa Melayu it feels like I'm writing a newspaper article and if I'm using the 'rojak' language as in my daily conversation I will still use some English words or sentences.

OK here's what came to my mind just now. I believe that the Prime Minister of Malaysia (no matter who that person is) should take actions to prevent big flood from happening again. Using the tax payers' money to prevent such damage to occur to them is much better than paying compensation or victim charity donation which are not productive at all. Big flood cause a lot of damage to agriculture, housing, transportation, and fishery. Those are worth millions of tax. Another significant fact is that most of those affected by floods are those who are in the average or lower income group. They earn just enough for their living and now they have to spend more to cover the damages by the flood. I am also believed that there are no insurance company that will cover your house or vehicles from damages caused by flood. Takaful have plans for fire, and typhoon damages for every type of housing but I'm not sure if they also cover flood damages.

Prevention is always better than curing and the steps are very simple. Ask the Minister of Works to set up a team to eliminate the problem. We have Public Works Department, Board of Engineers, and universities that can be utilised to find the BEST and COST EFFECTIVE solution. There are thousands of fresh engineering graduates finished their study every year so there are no excuse for no manpower for the job. The most effective way is to call the JPA sponsored graduates to work than letting them run away with their free education. We have so many universities and each of them have hundreds of scholars including Dr.s and Prof.s and don't say that they are all busy with their research that nobody will care to prevent flood from ruining their life. There are already too many brains available to find a solution to a problem so there should be no more excuse.

Then why there are still no actions? Is it politics? Everytime it involves a minister it will always about politics. This party want to do this but this party is against it because the most important thing in the mind of the politicians are the votes from public. From my point of view, the political parties (all of them) will try to find the BEST and COST EFFECTIVE way to gain public votes without having to spend more on satisfying them.

Streamyx Buat Best la Pulak

2009-11-11T13:34:00.000+08:00

Streamyx dah update system ke? Apa dah berlaku? Sejak semalam aku teramat berpuas hati dengan Streamyx sebab download speed aku kat torrent lebih kurang 50kB/s (kiloByte per second). Laju tu untuk torrent. Sebelum ni torrent download speed paling laju yang aku dapat pun dalam 20kB/s je. By the way make sure you know the difference between torrent download and download accelerator. With download accelerator, it is normal to have download speed up to 200kB/s but for torrent download it is very rare for me to have speed higher than 20kB/s.

Aku terkejut la jugak tapi hepi sebab download file 500MB pun dalam sejam dua je. Off course the speed is not maintained all the time sebab bergantung kepada seeders yang connect dengan aku. Kalau nak kata speed laju sebab banyak seeder pun tak bole jugak. Kejap tadi aku download 1 file and only 1 seeder from Thailand was connected. File 30MB finished in only 5 minutes. Sebelum ni tak penah lak Streamyx buat aku hepi macam ni. Adakah sebab hari selasa lepas aku pi komplen kat TMPoint? Apa kamu punya cerita?

Why we are far behind?

2009-10-30T21:51:00.004+08:00

don’t u think that malaysian are very creative.. in modifications mostly. Take the "Mat Rempit" for example, either with bikes or cars. Most of them are very creative in modifying there bikes or cars to get the best of power. Malaysians are also very brave and not afraid to try new things. Everyday there thousand of teenagers involve in drug addiction and many more to cigarettes just because they want to try something new.

this time i just want to say something about the creativity of malaysians. other topics.. later.. whats written here are just from my head so if there anybody who does not agree to these statement please dont hesitate to complain.

just when i was.. i don’t remember what was i’m doing that time.. i’ve wondered why malaysians cant produce a very good car model that can compete with the japanese or europeans. even the americans and koreans are now had taken place in malaysia. i heard that later maybe the chinese will try their luck too. so what will happen to proton??

as i an an engineering student, i wonder where are all the malaysians engineers. Why the current engineers unable to build everything on their own. everythings need to be helped. this issue is not in the automotive industry only. i thick come to my mind was.. malaysian copy people since in they were in schools. most of our students just copy the homeworks or assignments from their friends. this habit is then stick to their life forever. it is like smoking.. very hard to quit isn’t it.. our engineers may have the creativity and might found new innovations of technology but then the economy or manufacturing technology becomes the limitation. their boss might not agree with the cost. then, the only thing they are available to do is just modifying the available technology and call it our own.

if our students love to copy from others.. they must copy from someone.. someone who do his work on his own. lets say his name is A. so they are a few people like A in malaysia but why cant they do something. i think they cant do much because most of them prefer to further their study and then become lecturer in universities. later la i continue this..

Selesai Sudah Pemindahan Blog Aku

2009-07-31T00:36:00.003+08:00

Alhamdulillah selesai sudah kerja-kerja pemindahan blog English aku dari alamat lama di http://ridhuan.co.cc/blog ke alamat baru di http://www.ridhuan.com/blog. Hampir 2 minggu jugak aku mengadap laptop buat benda tu sebab aku pakai hosting free je kat 000webhost yang tak mampu pindahkan blog tu secara automatik. Kalo nak senang kena bayar la beb. Domain www.ridhuan.com tu aku beli melalui GoDaddy.com dengan harga USD6.99/year. Pandai-pandai la kira sendiri kalau nak tau harga dalam RM. La ni Godaddy ada promotion untuk domain .COM dengan harga USD7.49/year tapi kalo nak lagi murah kena baca di sini la. Dengan sengaja aku pakai .COM sebab .CO.CC yang free tu nampak macam tak best sangat dan aku nak secure nama tu sebelum ade Ridhuan yang lain amik dulu. Kalau lambat nanti kempunan lak aku melihat domain tersebut milik orang lain.

Dah selesai pindah blog lepas ni kena menyibuk pindah rumah pulak. Start esok aku akan dok rumah baru pulak. Last posting aku ada tulis pasal pindah rumah baru.. tapi esok pindah rumah yang lagi 'baru' walaupun rumah tu lagi buruk dari rumah yang aku dok sekarang ni. Nak dijadikan cerita dan juga suatu alasan untuk menghabiskan duit aku.. tengah dok sedap-sedap dok rumah ni tiba-tiba tuan rumah datang.. Dia kata nak dok sini lepas raya.. start bulan 8 dia nak buat renovation. Datang siap bawak contractor lagi.. Tepaksa la aku cari rumah lain pada waktu rumah-rumah yang menarik sudah kehabisan stok dan aku terpaksa dok rumah flat yang agak kurang digemari. Esok nak sewa lori pulak.. duit lagi.. Ada sapa-sapa nak bagi aku kerja part time tak?

Blog.. Oh My Blog.. What's Happening??

2009-07-10T01:01:00.002+08:00

Lama betul aku tak update blog.. aku pun tak tau sebab apa. aku stop tulis sebab busy time sebelum exam sem lepas. memang busy sebab time tu assignment banyak pastu study pun tak tercover lagi.. pastu bila dah setel exam dok busy ngan blog english aku lak. rasa lagi senang tulis dalam english dari dalam malay. lagipun aku bukan pandai sangat tulis macam blogger yang lain. lebih senang kalo aku tulis something informative.. macam ayat magazine tu.. tapi kalo tulis bahasa melayu macam tu dalam blog nanti nampak cam skema pulak.. sebab tu tulis dalam english senang sikit.

Tiap hari aku rasa nak tulis something tapi tak tulis2 jugak.. memang banyak yang aku nak share tapi tak sempat nak tulis. Macam mana nak tulis kalo kepala hotak tengah pikir pasal benda lain. Mula-mula plan nak update lepas exam.. dah abis exam tak sempat jugak.. dok sebuk buat website ngan pindah rumah.. kena masuk rumah baru la sebab aku dah tak tahan dok umah lama tu.. dok situ 10 orang tapi always rasa macam dok sorang2.. sebelum tu pun aku dah slalu tido kat umah orang sebab rasa lagi best dok situ.. last-last pindah terus.. tangguh nak tulis time cuti kat kampung.. tapi kat kampung intenet slow pulak.. laptop pun dah lama tak format.. memang slow sangat.. nak check e-mail pun sakit hati.. CD windows pulak tak ingat nak bawak balik..

lepas dok kampung kejap aku lari balik Shah Alam pulak.. plan nak setelkan registration aku tapi sampai hari ni tak setel lagi pun.. dah syoq dok umah baru tiba2 tuan umah ni datang cakap dia nak dok sini pulak.. buat pasal betul.. dah la bagitau lewat.. bukan senang nak cari umah time ni.. kelas pun dah nak start (time bagi notice tu).. aku bole dok sini ngan membe sampai hujung bulan 7 ni.. puas cari rumah last-last dapat jugak umah flat.. kecik pun kecik la.. dok 4 orang je.. tepaksa la kuar duit lagi untuk deposit.. aku dah la sengkek ni.. lagi satu aku memang tengah pening tak tau nak bayar yuran camne.. aku memang dah bajet tak dapat loan sem ni.. kelas pulak full nak keje part time pun tak sempat.. aku ada pusing-pusing cari keje part time tapi tak dapat la.. adik aku pun dah masuk blaja so aku tak mau mintak kat parent sebab yuran adik aku lagi mahal.. pening gak pikir pasal tu.. seb baik la hari ni problem tu setel sebab bila aku check kat ATM duit aku tiba-tiba banyak.. aku dapat loan jugak sem ni.. yahoo.. fuh setel 1 masalah.. sebab tu bole menulis ni.. kalo tak aku layan movie je la malam ni..

kat umah yang aku duduk ni aku tak bawak meja ngan kerusi office aku yang best tu.. tiap hari dok baring je ngadap laptop.. tapi kalo baring ni memang tak productive la.. rasa malas je.. kalo nak tido pun senang.. tiap hari aku ngadap laptop tengok youtube, facebook, movies.. kalo tulis ape2 skit ngantuk pastu sambung later.. skarang ni pun aku bole tulis ngan laju sebab dok lepak atas kerusi yang menarik membe aku cilok mane ntah.. kalo still baring kat tilam tu confirm takleh tulis ape2.. makin hari makin malas nampaknya aku ni.. makan tido makan tido tapi tak gemok gak.. time kat kampung aku belasah makan banyak2.. tiap kali makan at least 3 pinggan nasi.. banyak tu.. tapi tak puas lagi.. sebab aku dok kampung 2 minggu je.. tak sempat nak montel.. dah tak ingat dah bila aku gemuk sikit.. dah history pun..

So lepas ni ape lagi.. yuran dah setel.. rumah dah setel.. duit setel (selagi akaun aku tak kering).. format laptop setel.. aweks blom setel.. blaja blom setel.. ape lagi aku pun dah tak ingat.. lepas ni aku nak repair jam lama.. beli jam baru.. shoping skit.. lama dah aku tak shopping nih.. plan nak beli headfon tapi tangguh dulu la tak cukup bajet.. tengok Public Enemy.. mesti tengok nih.. pastu Pelham 123 lak..

Kosmetik ancam hormon seks lelaki

2009-05-15T03:58:00.003+08:00

"LONDON: Bahan kimia dalam makanan, kosmetik dan produk pembersih bertanggungjawab ‘mewanitakan’ bayi lelaki yang belum lahir serta meningkatkan risiko barah dan ketidaksuburan pada lewat kehidupan mereka.

Salah seorang pakar biologi reproduktif terkemuka Britain, Profesor Richard Sharpe, berkata bahan berkenaan dikaitkan dengan pertambahan kadar kelahiran cacat dan barah zakar serta pengurangan jumlah sperma.

Laporan penasihat kerajaan yang disiarkan semalam ialah paling terperinci mengenai ancaman kimia kepada bayi lelaki yang menghalang tindakan hormon seks lelaki, testosterone, atau meniru hormon seks perempuan, oestrogen." Sumber asal: Berita Harian 15 Mei 2009

Ingat tu kaum ibu.. patut la ramai lelaki jadi lembut skarang ni..

Barcelona Mesti Menang Champions League

2009-05-06T03:40:00.004+08:00

Orang Malaysia memang ramai yang suka tengok bola. Reti main ke tak reti yang penting tengok bola mesti reti. Die hard fan pun ramai sampaikan bersungguh-sungguh harapkan Fernando Torres score time Arsenal lawan ManUtd sedangkan dia tu pemain Liverpool. Peliknya orang Malaysia ni ramai yang lebih suka tengok 'European' daripada yang tempatan. Tapi nak buat macam mana kalau tengok yang tempatan nanti asyik dok kutuk je bertambah dosa pulak. Suka hati la nak tengok yang mana.

Aku suka jugak tengok bola walaupun bukan 'a fan of' mana-mana team. Takde untung ape2 pun so watpe aku nak jadi 'fan' pulak kan. Cam bodoh je. Tapi untuk Champions League kali ni aku prefer Barcelona menang. Aku tak mau English club maintain domination of the cup and claim that the British Premier League is the best league. Kalau English club menang lagi sekali.. confirm hak penyiaran untuk EPL akan naik. Kalau dulu TV3 ade jugak tunjuk live replay tapi sekarang yang keluar kat TV free tu cuma gambar keras je. Kita tetap kena bayar untuk tengok bola and those clubs gak yang untung.

Aku suka tengok game ManUtd tapi most of the time aku akan sokong the other team. Best betul bila tengok ManU kalah. ManU vs Liverpool aritu memang best. Man U memang team yang bagus tapi 'bosan'. Semua tau Man U. Budak baru pandai cakap pun tau Man U. Bini kamu pun tau Man U. They are over-publicized. Aku tak minat Arsenal sebab their game tak cukup menarik. Kalau Liverpool tukar main sponsor from Carlsberg to other non-alcoholic drink company maybe I'll consider being a fan. Buat masa skarang ni being neutral lagi best.

Tolong Sebarkan Kepada Rakan-rakan

2009-04-25T23:37:00.004+08:00

Kesibukan dan kemalasan membuatkan aku sukar untuk menerbitkan penulisan baru di blog ini. Namun hari ini aku terjumpa beberapa perkara yang tak mampu untuk didiamkan seorang diri. Perkara yang perlu dikongsi bersama sesiapa sahaja. Pergh skema betul aku nih.. Semalam aku lepak umah membe. Kat situ ada sorang membe non-muslim tp awek dia ni muslim. Time explore laptop mamat ni terjumpa 1 video best punyer.. ada kat bawah ni.. tengok sendiri la aku malas nak taip banyak2. Sebabkan video tu dah 'downloaded' terpaksa la aku cari kat youtube sebab nak share kat sini.

Video ni dah di 'resize' untuk fit dengan cantik di blog ni.. nak full size click link ini.. HD pun ada..

Dari video tu aku pun nak try sndiri calculate macam dalam video tu tapi tak berjaya lak sebab nak kena pakai Google Earth. Nak cari North Pole susah sangat so aku bukak Wikipedia. Aku ni pulak kalo buka Wikipedia mula la nak melarat baca benda lain pulak. Ada link menarik je aku click. Sampai la kat page "Halal". Dah baca habis jumpa lagi benda yang perlu aku share kat sini.
Bacalah dengan sendiri..

Kuiz di Facebook.. Bagus atau Jengkel?

2009-04-17T01:24:00.000+08:00

Bagi yang ada facebook.. y'all must have noticed that currently facebook kat malaysia ni sedang kena invade by quizzes. Bukak je facebook mesti ade membe baru je lepas wat kuiz.. Dalam keasyikan orang ramai menjawab kuiz ada jugak yang naik meluat. Naper pulak? Jom kita discuss.

Sebab quiz cepat jadi popular:

Quiz pasal mengenali diri sendiri memang popular sebab "curiousity is what everybody have". The best way to get attention of people is by making them curious.
Nak amik tau pasal orang lain. Kadang2 tu saje amik kuiz dengan harapan orang lain pun akan turut serta.. so bole la tau pasal orang lain tu.. kalo best puji2 skit.. kalo tak best bole kutuk..
Kuiz bahasa melayu tu klakar. Macam siot lawak soalan ntah apa2 tanya benda2 tak kena mengena. Tapi benda2 tu yang buat orang lagi suka nak jawab. Nak tau kalau jawab kuiz lain soalan apa pulak nak keluar.
Fungsi share dalam facebook bole bagitau semua orang result kuiz. Orang malaysia ke mana2 pun kan ramai yang suka menunjuk. Bila keluar result best mesti nak tunjuk kat orang lain yang kita ni best. Kalo result tak best tu tak ramai yang share pun. Mungkin didorong sifat nak rasa lebih baik dari orang lain atau cuba nak tarik perhatian sapa2.
Comments. Dalam facebook tu kan sapa2 pun bole komen. Lepas jawab tu mesti dok tunggu sapa la yang nak komen result kuiz aku ni.. pastu kalo takde orang komen tu.. add komen sendiri biar orang perasan.. kalo takde gak tu udah ler.. wat2 paham..

Sebab ada orang meluat:

Orang malaysia ni tak bole tengok orang senang.. ada benda baru naik je mula la nak bising.. kalo barang sendiri bole lak bangga sampai tiap minit kuar pasal dia pun takpe.
Buat serabut page je. Macam2 kuiz dan berapa ramai dok jawab every second sampaikan asyik pasal kuiz je yang kuar kat homepage tu. Takde benda lain dah ke.. ada awek tukar gambar baru pun tak perasan sebab asyik benda2 kuiz ni je yang kuar.
Bosan sebab asyik nampak benda yang sama..
Aku pun tak tau pasal apa

Jalan penyelesaian:

Masuk kat setting adjust la sendiri.. ikut sedap perut sendiri.

Dreams

2009-04-07T22:55:00.001+08:00

It's been a while since I had a nice dream... or maybe I don't remember. By the way I'm talking about dreams that you had when you're asleep.. not those when you're awake. Last night I had a nice dream. A dream which had me in a place where everybody was so nice. They gave me things like I've saved their lives. Of course most dreams are mixed up with things you won't understand just as said by Miss Saya. What's more interesting is that dream was like a continuation of one that I had previously. Some people in that dream had appeared in some dreams that I had previously but I don't think I've met them in real life. With more characters appeared and related to each other, I'm looking forward to know the rest of the story. Having that dream was like watching a TV series but the problem is I don't really know when will I have it again.

I always believed that dreams are related to what happened in our real life. It is either about something that we really wanted, really worried about, stresses, or about things that we've spend most of our daily life with. I had dreams about assignments when there were too many assignments or jobs unfinished and I had dreams about being somewhere in Europe because I really wanted to be there. Dreaming about a girl would mean that she's always in my mind. Sometimes only after having a dream about something makes me noticed that I thought about it too much. But most of the time we dreamed about things we don't understand. Dreams that couldn't give us any explanations or the reason why we're having them. These dreams make us curious and wondered.

Since I was a kid, I noticed that every time I had a bad fever I'll be having a quite similar dream. The ambiance, feeling, and spooky surrounding in those dreams were similar. Once I had this kind of dream, I knew I'm having a bad fever. Some dreams make you laugh while some make you scream. I had dreams that make me laugh till I wake up and scaring people around me. The worst case I had was when I dreamed about something so scary that I screamed and my roommate thought I was possessed. Some dreams were really nice that we wished they would become true while some were so bad that we're thankful they were only dreams. Did you know that in Japanese folklore, tapirs (or tenuk in Malay language) can eat people's dreams.

おかえり

2009-04-01T02:00:00.003+08:00

That was the ending clip of a Japanese drama, Zettai Kareshi (Absolute Boyfriend). A story about a woman looking for a perfect guy. One day she received an android that was programmed with everything she want in a guy. Everything!... and that's all I can tell you. Watch it yourself to know the rest of the story. It is a romantic comedy and you should be happy watching the story. The ending song title is Okaeri (Welcome home) by the beautiful Ayaka Iida who pronounced 'R' as 'L'. Somehow that makes her sound cuter. A beatiful song because the great voice and cheerful melody. I have the translated English lyric but I don't think I should put it here.

I really want to learn Japanese language so that I don't have to rely on subtitles to understand the stories I'm watching. Actually I want to learn as many language as I can. I love to learn language because it is a very beautiful form of art and I really hate when I can't understand what people around me are saying. I'm a curious person and that makes me curious even more. Ever watched a Chinese comedy movie in a cinema full of Chinese? Most of the non-Chinese will laugh a fraction later that the Chinese because we had to read the subtitles before understanding the jokes. The worst case is when no subtitles appeared for a joke and all the Chinese laugh but you can only smile.

I've learned some Mandarin but can't only understand a bit when I listen to it in the television. Still not enough to let me understand the full story. Since last year I've been learning Japanese for myself from a book and by watching movies and drama series. Managed to understand and speak something but with nobody to practice with, both my Japanese and Mandarin has faded day by day. Is there anybody can be my teacher? I'll be really happy if anybody want to practice any language with me.

-keghorLimbong-: HARGA AYAM TURUN.....KFC TURUN X.......

2009-03-27T01:53:00.000+08:00

In respond to -keghorLimbong-: HARGA AYAM TURUN.....KFC TURUN X....... No way la harga KFC tu nak turun. Kalo setakat harga ayam turun tu depa wat dono je.. Tak payah amik contoh susah macam kfc or mekdi.. cuba tengok restoran franchise paling popular zaman milenium... Mamak Restaurant or Restoran Nasi Kandar kalo kat negeri utara. Dulu depa kata harga roti canai dengan harga air naik sebab harga minyak naik.. Memang pun harga minyak naik to the highest level ever in Malaysian history. Orang pun tak bole nak kata apa la kan. Kalo nak lawan cakap dengan si mamak tu awek cun pun bole berjanggut.. Skarang ni harga minyak dah turun lower than ever. Cuma tak lebih rendah dari RM1.92 macam time Anwar dok keja kerajaan lagi dulu tu.. Harga air ngan roti canai maintain.. kos dah kurang skit.. untung dah naik banyak.. Apa ni macha!!???

Apa masalah negara skarang ni hah? Selain daripada lakonan politik kat TV tu? Dulu ada dengar pasal gula tak cukup.. skarang ni dah cukup ke blom? Apa dah jadi dengan Robert Kwok yang digelar Raja Gula Asia tu? Dia telan gula semua ke sampai abis ataupun depa buat kuih bakul banyak sangat time gong xi fa cai. Beras cukup? Jumlah pengangguran dah kurang? Ekonomi negara dah stabil? Tak dengar pun report kat TV. Tiap hari tunjuk muka-muka yang sama dok kejar jawatan dalam parti sampaikan PATI makin ramai pun tadak sapa amik tau. Tiap kali musim hangat politik je.. mesti cerita lain terbenam.. ignored.. sebab nak maintain sales kot.. or sebab memang wajib tayang pasal tu.. Skarang ni ramai yang dah makin meluat dengar cerita politik mainan je. Kalau kat paper ngan tv nasional tunjuk pasal lain pun mesti ramai yang tengok. Viewer Astro pun mesti makin ramai time macam ni sebab depa bosan tengok cerita yang sama kat tv free tu.

Majalah Lucah Artis Melayu

2009-03-24T09:42:00.000+08:00

Di suatu senja, aku sedang berlegar di sebuah kompleks mencari sesuatu yang belum pasti. Ke sana ke mari aku berjalan mencari sesuatu yang istimewa untuk dijadikan hadiah. Hati masih buntu walaupun pelbagai benda di depan mata. Aku hanya tinggal beberapa minit lagi untuk membuat keputusan. Tiba-tiba aku tersentak apabila dari jauh kulihat gunung-gunung berapi yang hampir meletup. Dicelahnya jurang-jurang yang akan menelan sesiapa sahaja yang jatuh kedalam. Masa semakin suntuk untuk aku mendapatkan apa yang aku cari namun rasa ingin tahu mengawal diriku untuk mendekati. Kenapa ada gunung berapi di sini? Tergantung kat kedai runcit pulak tu.

Ni gambar version lama aku jumpa kat intenet. Takyah tengok lama-lama

Rupa-rupanya majalah Mangga. Latest version kot. Aku nak tau gak sapa yang sanggup jadi cover depan tu tapi takde time la pulak. Aku betul-betul tengah urgent time tu and I said to myself "Len kali la aku tengok.. lagipun majalah tu memang camtu pun". Lepas tu aku pun pi la settlekan my mission. Dah selesai semua.. bila balik rumah teringat lak pasal majalah tadi tu. Lama aku tak tengok majalah tu. Nak beli jangan harap la. Tapi kalau ada orang beli bole la aku join baca kan. Nasib baik la orang-orang sekeliling aku ni tak baca benda-benda macam tu. Kat umah membe aku sorang tu penuh majalah Mastika je. Kalo kat umah aku ni Auto Trader je banyak sebab agent keta dok sini sorang.

Tapi aku curious la. Sape yang dok baca majalah Mangga tu. Makin hari makin dasyat isi kandungan dalam tu. Yang aku tau.. tiap-tiap edition mesti ada photoshoot tepi kolam or dalam kolam. Kalo nak buat photoshoot kat taman ke, tepi tasik ke, tepi masjid ke tak bole ke? Dah dok tepi kolam tu takkan nak pakai baju kurung kot kan.. at least swimsuit gak ler pastu senang nak terjun. Memang dari dulu lagi ada scene camtu tapi skarang ni sampai front page pun depa tayang yang macam tu jugak. Senang nak promote sales kot. Nanti budak-budak tengok bole suruh bapak belikan.

Perlu ke ada majalah macam tu? Dari dulu lagi maintain je ada kat kedai mesti la ada pembaca setia.. kan? Kalo pasal contents gossip-gossip tu lantak depa la nak tulis apa pun. Takde hal la. Aku still curious la sapa 2 orang covergirl yang over-exposed tu. Hari tu sempat tengok dari jauh je. Nak pi cari pun rasa cam nak wat benda tak elok lak kan. Baik tak payah hehe. Tengok tak sengaja takpe.. Artis pun agak-agak la nak dressing pun depan camera. Kalo belakang camera tak pakai pe pun orang tak amik tau except kalo ada gak nak menyebok. Sebab apa orang suka amik tau pasal artis? Perlu ke ada rancangan macam Melodi tu? Apa cerita depa semua nak amik tau. Depa pakai apa pun nak tiru. Lifestyle depa pun nak tiru. Kalo filter dulu mana yang baik dijadikan teladan mana yang buruk dijadikan sempadan takpe la jugak. Ramai artis-artis yang bagus, berjaya dalam bisnes la apa lagi tapi macam takde orang amik tau pun pasal tu.

Cantik vs Bijak

2009-03-24T01:49:00.003+08:00

LONDON: Kajian baru mengesahkan lelaki lebih rela keluar bersama dengan wanita cantik yang bodoh daripada wanita bijak tetapi kurang menarik.

Tinjauan menunjukkan 73 peratus lelaki lebih berkemungkinan memilih gadis seperti pemenang siri Celebrity Big Brother’s, Chantelle Houghton berbanding bintang Cabaran Universiti, Gail Trimble.

Lebih separuh lelaki berkata otak yang bijak tidak penting selagi wanita itu cantik kerana ia penting untuk mengagumkan rakan mereka. Lapan daripada 10 lelaki berkata, mereka tergugat dengan gadis bijak. - Berita Harian 24/3/2009

Apa kata wanita Malaysia? lelaki Malaysia? mari kira lihat..

Friendster Dah Tak Private

2009-03-20T20:49:00.000+08:00

Untuk menimbulkan cerita kat sini.. Friendster dot kom yang hempa semua dok pakai tu dah tak private la ni. Sebab gambaq private pun orang lain dah bole tengok la ni.. Sapa yang suka letak gambaq sexy2 ka atau gambaq tak pakai baju ka dalam private folder tu baik hati2 hahah. Macam yang hempa semua tau.. la ni Friendster pun dah tiru Facebook pasal status update la sampai la apa yang hempa comment kat orang lain pun orang lain tau. Kalau dalam Facebook benda ni memang dah biasa tapi ada limit gak. Kalo yang nak extra privacy tu bole adjust setting. Tapi dalam Friendster aku tak tau la bole adjust setting ke tak sebab aku pun tak try lagi.

Ok kalo stakat status update tu tadak hal la kan kalo orang tau tapi skarang ni kalau ada orang comment kat private picture pun "rakan-rakan" lain akan tau. Ceritanya mula macam ni.. Semalam ada la membe aku ni letak comment ayat leleh punyer kat gambaq private awek dia. Pastu awek dia pun balas dengan ayat2 yang tak kalah bisanyer.. Depa dua orang ni mesti budget depa dua je yang nampak benda tu padahal benda tu dah jadi perbualan petang tadi time minum kat jayati. Bukan stakat dapat baca, gambaq private awek dia pun semua orang dah tengok. Seb baik la gambaq tu tutup aurat. Kan dah tak private kalo camtu. Nak tiru Facebook punya pasal privacy orang jadi masalah. Kalo problem ni tak settle mesti lepas ni makin kurang pengguna Friendster. Sebelum ni dah la banyak problem phishing a.k.a cyrus the virus.

Men and Woman Again

2009-03-15T10:17:00.001+08:00

Received this in my email. Might be worth sharing.

Difference between Women and Men

1.NAMES
If Laurie, Linda, Elizabeth and Barbara go out for lunch, they will call each other Laurie, Linda, Elizabeth and Barbara.
If Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla, Peanut-Head and Scrappy.

2.EATING OUT
When the bill arrives, Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom will each throw in a $20, even though it's only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.
When the women get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.

3.MONEY
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need, but it's on sale

4.BATHROOMS
A man has five items in his bathroom: a toothbrush, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from the Marriott.
The average number of items in the typical woman's bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify most of these items

5.ARGUMENTS
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that.. is the beginning of a new argument.

6.CATS
Women love cats.
Men say they love cats, but when women aren't looking, men kick cats.

7.FUTURE
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

8.SUCCESS
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

9.MARRIAGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change , but she does.

10. DRESSING UP
A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the garbage, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.
A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.

11. NATURAL
Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.
Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

12. OFFSPRING
Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.
A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.

13. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Any married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering the same thing

Engineering My Life

2009-03-14T09:23:00.003+08:00

Okeyh.. Sebagai pengubat rindu anda semua terutama bagi Cik Ian yang asyik bertanya "mana encik duan ni.. i miss him ler" :P Pada hening pagi ni aku nak bercerita skit la. Walaupun hati masih terbakar dengan geram dengan internet yang asyik putus. Terpaksa aku layan movie ngan main game sebab nak tunggu bole online. Cerita apa "hempa" suka dengaq? "Hempa" bermaksud "anda semua" dalam dialek Kedah. Nak ceghita pasai hidup aku la. Ada ka orang nak baca pasai hidup aku ni? Macam la femes sangat kan aku ni. Mesti la ada.. kan dah ramai dok tunggu nak baca tu.. Suka ka tak suka ka mesti hempa kena baca gak kan hahah. Aduss.. mengarut betui aku malam ni. Seriously aku tak bole nak berfikiran rasional skarang ni. Macam ni la jadinya time kepala otak dah tak betui pagi2 buta ni.

Aku nak crita pasai apa aku amik mechanical engineering. Susah tu.. Kalau terer takpa la jugak kan.. mesti aku dah jadi enjenia dah la ni.. tapi sebab tak terer tu la yang dok ngaji tak abih2 lagi ni. Kadang2 tu tepikiaq gak betui ka course aku amik ni. Sebab aku bab komputer pandai la jugak. Kalau amik computer science bole kot dapat cop dekan hahah.. berlagaknye aku. Pastu pasal multimedia pun bole gak skit. Banyak jugak life aku terbazir kat benda2 multimedia ni. Takyah la nak story panjang bab ni. Lagi satu aku ni minat seni. Apa2 jenis seni pun aku suka la. Suka lagu, painting, sketch, poem, apa2 la. Jeles bila tengok orang lain pandai lukis or pandai menulis ayat2 puitis. Tapi aku still nak jadi mechanical engineer. My dream since aku form 4. Time kecik kecik plan nak jadi scientist sebab suka tengok citer tv yang tunjuk scientist ni banyak invent benda baru yang pelik2. Teringin nak buat keta back to the future sendiri. Bila dah besaq skit baru aku tau yang scientist invent something tapi engineer yang apply the technology or invention to human application. So kalo nak buat keta aku kena la jadi engineer.

Actually dari kecik lagi aku dah terlibat dengan benda2 mekanikal ni. Aku bertanggungjawab merosakkan kaset player radio kat umah aku time aku umur berapa ntah sebab asyik dok tekan stop play banyak kali sangat. Suka tengok benda dalam tu dok pusing. Slalu je ada soalan dalam kepala aku "kenapa jadi macam tu". Sebab apa orang naik moto senget time korner? Sebab apa kapal terbang dengan helikopter lain. Finally aku find out answers to these questions are in mechanical engineering. Slowly bila dah blajaq bit by bit about this field, aku dah faham skit pasal apa yang berlaku keliling aku. Seronok gak bila tau what happen behind the scenes without actually being behind the scenes. Love to know how things work. Tapi satu soalan belum terjawab. "Nape aku tulis pasal ni?"

Big Boss penah sebut kat aku hasrat dia nak aku jadi dokter huhu. Time tu baru lepas PMR and time nak pilih amik jurusan Technical Science or Pure Science. One night tu tengah layan TV Boss tanya aku "Wan, what are you taking next year? Does your school have pure science?" pastu aku pun reply "Currently the school offers a pure science and technical science majoring to students." Pastu Boss bagi ayat yang diiringi kilat sabung-menyabung "Would it be nice to see you become a doctor. Don't you think so?" Aduss.. Aku memang tak minat langsung bab medical ni. Aku pun jawab la "Dad, I know being a doctor is a good job but it is not for me. I never had any interest in medical. I've always wanted to be an engineer so maybe I can help in medical as an engineer but not as a doctor." Lepas tu nampak la skit frustration kat muka Boss tapi takde pe sangat la sebab dia pun tau it is my life we were talking about. Boss tak mau aku jadi engineer sebab dia ingat engineer ni keja buat bangunan je. So aku pun explain la sikit pasal engineering sampai dia paham. Dengaq cam best je tapi bapak aku tak paham apa pun bahasa orang putih ni hahah.

Lepas SPM aku terus amik Mechanical Engineering kat UTP. Majoring in Automotive lak tu. My dream came true la lebih kurang. Time tu aku tak isi pun borang UPU sebab dah tau mane nak ngaji lepas tu. Tapi aku rasa rugi lak tak apply A-level untuk ngaji oversea. Time aku dapat tau pun offer dah tutup. Jeles je membe pi Jerman and Japan. Tapi bila dah kat UTP aku pulak blew the chance. Lepas 2 tahun aku out blaja tak abis pun. Ada conflict of interest lak haha. Sebab banyak sangat benda yang aku minat dan semua aku nak buat. Hobby became routine and responsibility being ignored. Mana bole camtu kan. Sebab tu kita amik specific course je at higher education level. Lepas tu aku amik diploma kat UiTM. Kali ni first time aku isi borang UPU. Dalam 8 tempat nak isi course ape nak pilih tu, 4 of them aku isi Mechanical Engineering. 2 aku isi Electrical Engineering and yang lain tu pasal computer kot wat backup daripada tak dapat apa2 langsung. Cukup bulan result pun keluar, aku check result kat umah membe aku kul 7 pagi sebab tak tido lagi lepas malam tu bersembang kosong kat beranda. Aku dapat my first choice Dip. Mech. Eng. (Automotive) so depa hantaq aku kat Shah Alam. Membe aku yang senasib dapat lain sikit so kena hantaq pi Penang.

Bila dah amik diploma rasa cam senang lak course ni. Ngaji relax2 pun tau2 dah abih aku wat diploma. Kalo tanya result diploma aku bole la nak bangga tapi bila amik degree ni cam hampeh. Sampai skarang tiap sem ade je subjek sangkut. (fail la tu). Takde lagi sem yang clear paper time degree ni. Paling tensen kalo fail sebab dapat C- je. Well if you don't know, kat UiTM ni, nak lulus kena dapat C and above. C- means fail and you have to repeat the subject. Skang ni sampai dah tak larat aku nak ngaji. Tinggal lagi 1 sem lepas ni. Tunggu nak abis je. Lepas tu aku nak pursue my new dream lak. Being a businessman haha. I've always wanted to have a restaurant and I've already have the concept in mind. Ada investor nak join?

Asyik Komplen Je Aku Ni

2009-03-09T11:56:00.001+08:00

Lama jugak aku tinggal blog ni tak update. Banyak benda yang aku nak tulis tapi tak bole. Banyak masalah yang tak membahayakan tapi menjadi sebab utama aku tak bole nak update. Major problem is the internet connection. Internet kat Malaysia ni paham2 la kan memang kita xleh nak watpe pun dah. Redha je la. Tapi yg wat tensen tu bila ada orang sedut semua bandwidth pakai kat dia sorang. Dalam rumah aku ni ada 5 orang yang pakai intenet. Problemnye bila ada orang download pakai torrent. Tau torrent? Bila on torrent je tinggal sorang je la yang bole pakai. Lagi 4 orang terpaksa bergantung pada nasib kalo nak online. Nak tulis entry baru pun terbantut sebab asyik disconnect or xleh load page. Aku yang bertapak tepi modem ni asyik reset je la kalo intenet slow. Aku pun pakai jugak torrent kadang2 tapi time orang dah tido or time orang lain tak guna intenet. Kalo aku sorang bayar bil xpe la jugak kan nak bolot semua. Aku plan nak tulis benda lain ni tapi lain lak aku tulis. Benda2 camni la yang wat aku hilang mood nak tulis ape2. Skarang ni aku nak tulis dulu ape yang bergelora kat kepala otak aku ni.

Mula2 aku plan nak balik kampung minggu ni.. Tengok muka mak yang amat dirindui. Makan masakan mak puas-puas hehe.. Tapi malangnya.. Sabtu lepas ada test lak. Takleh score lak tu. Hampeh tul. Kalo xde test tu Khamis malam aku dah bole gerak balik. Nak balik sabtu malam tu cam kejap sangat lak. Nanti dok dalam bas je yg lama pun. Dok umah 1 day dah kena gerak balik sini. Camne nak relax. Aku tak suka sangat nek bas ni. Letih. Nak naik flight pun aku tak ingat nak booking aritu (tak mampu actually ^.^). Lagi 2 minggu nak try balik gak la. Nak balik makan puas-puas haha. Kat sini pun banyak je kan makanan. Ape masalahnye kan?? Actually aku ni cerewet skit pasal makan ni. Kalo makan kat kedai mane2 pun mesti ada aku nak komplen. Susah nk dengar aku puji masakan kat kedai ni. Kadang2 tu smpai xde mood nk mkn nasi. Aku lebih suka makanan yang masak kt umah. Yang mak masak, kakak masak, adik masak, membe masak, aku masak, awek masak (blom dapat rasa lg). Kalo home-made cooking ni aku tak komplen. Telur goreng ngan kicap pun xde hal la.

Terlanjur sebut pasal makan ni aku nak komplen satu hal. Petang semalam aku gi beli nasi kat satu kedai tu. Terpaksa gak pi kedai tu sebab kedai lain tutup. Bagi aku kedai tu memang tak sedap sangat sebab asyik spesen je masakan kat situ. Dah xde choice blasah je la. Bole pulak dia letak meja lauk ni kt tengah2 kedai tu pastu pasang kipas kuat-kuat. Kalo kat Moskow dah beku dah lauk-lauk atas meja tu. Pastu aku nampak la udang masak kuning. Cambest je ni.. aku pun cedok skit kuah masuk dalam nasi. Baru tertuang skit dah terbau tempoyak lak. Aduhai camne nak wat ni.. lauk ngan nasi dah penuh dalam bekas tapau tu. Seb baik baru sikit. Aku pun cari sambal belacan ngan kuah lain nak cover bau kuah tempoyak tu. Lepas bayar aku gi kedai mamak kat sebelah tapau air lak. Air kedai tadi sangat tak best. Pastu balik je aku makan sambil tengok tv. Bau tempoyak tu still kuat la.. terpaksa jugak aku telan dengan full self control. Laju je aku makan nak abiskan cepat2 nasi tu. Tak enjoy aku makan ari ni. Lauk aku save to last nak cover bau haha. Nampaknye pasni kena lebih berhati2 dengan masak lemak kuning ni.

Satu lagi yang dok fill up my mind all the time skang ni.. emm.. camne eh.. happy, worried, scared, pe lagi.. all at the same time. Feelings that makes u unconfortable but u don't want them to go away. I don't even know what am I thinking right now. I just want to see her again. Sometimes a minute could feel so long isn't it.. and you can't affort to wait another day
