I'm really headache this time because I have to choose which accessories should I buy on April after I get my January and February salaries. It's hard for me to decide whether to choose Sony Alpha 200 or Nokia 5800. If I didn't lost my hand phone, I will definitely buy the camera. So, I hope that I can get some suggestions from some of my readers, which gadgets would you choose between these two?

Sony Alpha 200

Nokia 5800

14 Hours of Mahjong

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 06:20:00 +0000

Since last week, I played mahjong at Vincent's house for almost every night. And it's from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. My mahjong kakis are Vincent, Ah Yung, Siong Sing, Ah Wu, Ah Q and Christopher. Unfortunately, Siong Sin is the only one who winning the money every night, so he become our boss when we go for supper.

Yesterday, me, Siong sing, Vincent and Ah Q start it at 5 p.m. We play until 8 p.m. and Siong Sing win around RM 60. So we kiap him for dinner, we order McD delivery and it cost him RM 60. And he is using our own money to chia us the McD. We play 3 rounds of mahjong with Siong Sing, that's from 5 p.m. until 1 a.m. After Siong Sing went home, we continue again with Ah Wu, and we play another 3 rounds from 1 a.m. until 7 a.m. So, we use 14 hours to play 6 rounds of mahjong. 14 HOURS!!! It's more than half day, break our own records already.

Although I'm not working today, but I still have to busy with my own things and SSSC things. So, don't have time to sleep liaw because I have to make sure all the things is done because our student council induction and AGM is on tuesday and wednesday.

I was suppose to update my blog after my final exam but then I was too busy working as a Celcom promoter. I'm too tired to blog after working whole day, tambah pulak my lovely Sony Ericsson K810 was lost in Damai Beach during December. Really damn soi because I haven't used it for a year yet. Haihzz~~~

KK Trip (Day 1)

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 02:45:00 +0000

This is what I should post long time ago, just that I don't have extra time to arrange all the photos taken during the trip. have to much assignments to do this semester, and there are four assignments which I need to submit this month. But there is some friends who said that my blog almost become legend because of not updating, so I take some time to update my blog with this post. This KK trip is booked by 7 of us since March and we went to this trip during our last semester holiday. The "siaw kia" who is going to this trip is me, Jeremy, Vincent and Lucas, the "siaw cabo" are Wenshi, Gabby and Jolyn. On the first day, we depart from Kuching at 1.45pm and reached KK before 4pm.

*KK Air Asia Terminal.

Once we reach there, the first thing we "siaw kia" do is look for duty free cigarettes. Unfortunately, our favaurite Dunhill King Size is out of stock, so 4 of us just decide to bought the Dunhill Fine Cut. After we get our luggage, the taxi we booked is already waited for us outside the terminal. When we are on the way to the lodge, we realise that our lodge is just located at the town area, and there's many places for us to go around that area.

When we reached the lodge, Vincent help us to check in because he is the one who booked it for us. The price for the room is quite cheap, we have booked two room and each of us just pay around RM170 for four nights. Each of the room got two beds and a washroom, besides that, there's also a recreation room which you can online, watch television, chit chatting and read books.

*Summer Lodge

*This is the recreation room I mentioned.

*Television (Astro and DVDs), Books and tour guidebooks is provided.

*The computer and internet access is free for you to play.

*There's lots of KK travel information on the notice board outside the lodge.

*And this is our 4 "siaw kia" room!!!

So, the first thing we do after we loaded all our luggage is planning what are we going to do for this trip. Actually me and Jeremy is going for mountain climbing the next day but we cancel it because Jeremy has break his ankle the week before this trip while we are playing the paint ball. We have wasted RM180 because we just can claim back RM150 from our deposit we cancel the booking.

*What should we do for this trip??

*Is this enough for me to spend for this trip?

After planned for 30 minutes, we come out with the decision that agreed by everyone and we called our mountain climbing tour guide to arrange it for us. Here's the list of what we going to do for this trip.

Day 1 - Shopping
Day 2 - Water Rafting
Day 3 - Visit to Kinabalu Park and the Poring Hot Spring
Day 4 - Island Trip
Day 5 - Home Sweet Home

Around 6pm after rest, we went to Centre Point at KK by 15 minutes walks from the lodge. At there, we bought something and waiting for our friend who works for his father at KK here during his holiday. We just hanging around there and we also went to Palm Square which located at the upper floor because this two shopping complex are in the same building.

*KK Centre Point

*"Barang-barang from Sabah", a funny gift shop name at Centre Point

"Siaw Kia" at Palm Square. From the left : Vincent, Lucas, Jeremy and Ah Boo

*"Siaw Cabo" from the left: Jolyn, Gabby and Wenshi

After Ah Boo arrived, he bring us to Taman Tun Fuad Stephen for dinner. There's quite a lot of restaurants around there and the famous one is called the Fishermen's Restaurant because you can enjoy cultural dance performance while you haing your dinner. But we did'nt go that restaurant because some of us already ate some burgers at Burger King just now. So, we just went to one of the restaurant at there and ordered for some seafood.

*Welcome to Taman Tun Fuad Stephen!!!

*That's the Fishermen's Restaurant.

After having or dinner, Ah Boo drive us around KK and introduced some places that we should go. Then he bring us to Bukit Bendera to enjoy the KK night view. I have to say thanks to him because he is the one who bring us around at KK during night time when we were at here. Without him, our trip wouldn't be so happening at night.

*Night view of KK city from Bukit Bendera.

Our first night is not end yet, Ah Boo still bring us to the KK waterfront to have a walk and we found that the place was so happening although it's during weekdays. The place is full with pubs, lounges, karaok and restaurant along the waterfront.

*Waterfront at KK, a place that you must some to experience KK night life.

*The B.E.D, the famous pub at KK.

*K Box is also at here.

Next, Ah Boo bring us to Upperstar that near our lodge for some drinks. At there, we ordered some beers and snacks. 2 big bottle of beers only cost us RM18. The price here is very reasonable and the environment was very comfortable too. There are some table that provided with computer and you can use it for free.

*Upperstar Cafe

*This Pizza is so delicious, the price is RM 13 only!!!

*Can I have 1 pience of pizza?? Please...

We spent our time at there until 12am then Ah Boo sent us back to our lodge. When we back to our room, we prepared the things for next morning because we are going for water rafting and the tour guide is going to pick us at 8am. So, this is end of our first day at KK.

Swinburne Graduation Ceremony 2008

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 09:15:00 +0000

Last Monday, I went to Swinburne Graduation Ceremony 2008 at Dewan Undangan Negeri. My friends Ian and Saad were graduating on that day. Roy (Ian's Brother) asked me to help him take some photos and sending flowers to his brother before he went to Melbourne. Anyway, at here I would like to congrats all the graduants. I'm so envy those people who graduate because I still got one and a half year too go, it's a long time for me when seeing most of my friends have graduates already. What to do, just wish that I wouldn't fail again in my final exam.

Because there are too many photos were taken, so I just put it into slide show and post it up here. For those want to view all the images or may be you discover yourselves are in the photo, you can always grab it at my photobucket account by just click on the "view all images" button under the slide show.

It's time to 'eat' paint!!!

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 08:12:00 +0000

The week before I went to KK, I was at Pasir Pandak again with my own gangs for another paint ball match. This time, we got 18 people so there is 9 people in each team. Some of us gather around 10am at satok for some breakfast and we reach our destination around 10.45am. When we reach there, we take some time to visit the war field while waiting for the others. Now, let me show you some photo of the war field.

Jungle War Field

*This is what you see when you step in the field. The base of Team A.

*There is many bunkers inside the field.

*Actually there is many crossline in the field, but this is the one that clearly shows that it's a crossline.

*Base for Team B. It's at the back part of the field.

*Everyone looks so excited!!!

"The other Field" (Don't know how to call it)

*This is how the field looks like.

*Although this field is small, but there's a lot of place for you to hide.

*This is just for acting nia!!!

*Surrender or Die!!!

The briefing starts around 11.30am and we start our games at 12pm. This time, we go for the small field match first, and everyone is just given 10 pellets. And this game just took less than 30 minutes to finish. After that, we go for the jungle field, we play 2 games in that field. We set 20 minutes for each game and 15 minutes to rest in between the games.

*Call me 'RAMBO'!!!

*This tinted mask belongs to the marshal, cool leh!!

*Choose your own marker before you go into the field.

Everyone was very fun after playing the games. We finished our pellets around 2pm. And Jeremy has injured his knee when the last game is about to finish. So, me and Vincent accompany him to clinic to check his knee. Unfortunately, he is not able to climb mountain KK on the next wednesday. Because we are the only two who already booked for the mountain climbing, so we have to cancel it. And this cost us Rm235 each for the deposit. So, have to plan for next trip to KK for the mountain climbing.

*This is what I got for this paint ball game, an "oche"!!

Paint Ball @ Pasir Pandak

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 08:06:00 +0000

I back from Sibu on the 5th of July by driving and reach Kuching around 6.30am. Once we reached Kuching, I didn't direct went home but I went to Roy house to have a nap and wake up around 9.30am because me, Roy and Ian have to reach Pasir Pandak (Santubong) by 10am for Paint Ball. The Paint Ball location is located at Pasir Pandak, Santubong. Once you turn into there, just follow the main road and you will discover a sign board with "Sg. Buah" at your rightside, just turn into there and you can see the place. The name of the place is "Borneo Paint Ball".

*This is the place, Borneo Paint Ball!!!

*And this is where they prepare all the things.

Before we start the game, everyone has to listen to the briefing on our safety. Because the owner of the place was late, so there is another person brief us. And his 1 of his gang who invite us for this game. They are all pro in playing this already.

*He is the one who brief us at the beginning, our opponents also.

*Everyone has to pay attention to the briefing.

*If you can look closely, the one with light blue shirt is the owner of this place, Mr Sim.

So, after the briefing, everyone of us know that what's the name and use of our equipment. And we also know the ways to make sure our friends and our own safety. The equipment include mask, neck protector, vest and marker. When we are in the game, once we step into the war field, we have to make sure our mask in on. As long as when we're in the war field, we cannot take our mask on no matter what happen (such as there's bee go inside your mask) to protect your ears and eyes. If you encounter this problems, you have to raise your hand and call for the marshal to help you. This is the most important things to remember when we're playing paint ball. Besides that, we also have to avoid to point the marker to anyone before the game start, the safety pin have to be on before the game start. And if we start shooting, we also can't point the marker to high because it might cause the paintball to fly outside the war field and hit somebody else.

*This is the mask that have to be equipped all time during the game.

*The vest. If you don't wear also can but you have to tahan the pain.

*The cloth with XXX is the neck protector, you can also don't use it if you're not scare to have love bite on your neck.

*This is the gun, and it's called marker.

*The paint ball.

So, what are we waiting for?? It's time to equipped ourself. Our team is using the black vest and our opponents are using the brown vest. As we know, we sure will lose to them because 90% of our team members are playing this for the first time only.

*Guess which one is Ian and which one is Roy??

*It's time to equipped ourself!!!

*Our opponents!!

There's two kind of war field, one is the jungle and one is just a face to face field with many bunkers. For this time, we just play the game in the jungle because there's too many of people. If I'm not mistaken, every team got about 12 people.

*The jungle war field.

*The field with lots of barrels.

*Queuing to get our marker.

*Is everyone ready??

*So, everyone is in the field. Before the marshal start the game, let's discuss strategies.

*The game is about to start in 10 second, please take your position!!!

*This is what we called camping. Hide to wait for enemy to come.

We play for 4 games from 11am until 2pm. Although our team just win 1 of the game, but all of us really enjoy the game. All of us just spend RM50 at the beginning for all the equipment and first 100 bullets. After you finish your first 100 bullets, for every reload, 100 bullet just cost RM20. So, if you want to play until very syok, RM70 is enough, unless you really want to be rambo and shoot non stop, you can always reload if you think that the bullets is not enough for you.

*Head shot!!

*Our team!!!

*Yeah!! It's a nice game. Actually there are more people but many of them didn't join in to take photo.

*This is what I got after the game. Can you feel the pain!!

This is just my first time of playing paint ball and I really like it although I got some 'love bite'. After this game, me, Ian and Roy start to asking our own friends for next game. And guess what, many of our friends really to to join us also. For the next time, I will the the person who giving other people 'love bite', hahahaha~~~ If anyone who like to play paint ball, don't forget to ask me for the game, I would to like join you people also.

9 Days @ Sibu

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 05:44:00 +0000

Lets continue the post of my 9 days Sibu Trip from 27th June until 5th July. We went there for Celcom Roadshow which held at the Borneo Cultural Festival. The Borneo Cultural Festival is the annual event of Sibu which like our Kuching Festival. Once we reach Sibu, we went to the BCF location to survey our booth. We were so shock after we reached there because the area for this event was so big, if you know where is Wisma San Yan, then you should know how big is the field in front of that building. Not only that, the area of this event still include the open space that as big as the our Kuching Festival area which opposite the big field in front of Wisma San Yan. Unfortunately, I just manage to take some photos of this event because we start work everyday when the event start and finish the work when the event ends.

*This is the open area that I mentioned, and this is where we worked.

*Rainbow spotted at the first day before we start our work.

*Photo taken from the place I worked.

*The photo was too blur to shows the happenings.

*Traffic Jam during the festival.

Every night, we were at the same place for our job. And it's hard for us to promote the Celcom stuff because this festival is not same as PC Fair. For PC Fair, everyone is going to buy something but for this festival, most of the people went there to walk around, eat and look for something interesting. And it's quite bored for us to doing the same things everynight. Luckily, there's some programmes arranged to attract customer such as live performance. Celcom invite local artist, the borneo headhunter, ERNESTO to perform at the fifth night. Although this is the first time I heard about ERNESTO, but he's quite popular in Sibu. May be some freinds in Kuching know him also. I recommend one of his song, "Seribu Satu", this song is nice and it's also the only song I like throughout his whole album "1001".

*The fans of ERNESTO, borneo headhunter.

*At least this help to increase some sales.

*ERNESTO, the one with long hair.

*Many people ask for his signature poster.

*Yeah!! Tat's Mr. Mat Cool from other booth.

During our last night at BCF, and also the time that we fight for our sales, part of the event area suddenly blackout. Although this situation last for 20 minutes, but it keep on happen for around 4 to 5 times. And this make us really bo xim because no customers at all. So, we just wait the time to pass.

*Can't do anything at all in this situation!!!

*Celcom Promoter with the "blue ears".

*Soi Zai and Roy!!! Looks scary or not??

*Me and Soi Zai!! Can you see a face behind us??

We worked 8 nights for the celcom roadshow in this Borneo Cultural Festival, but it's different stories during our days time. Every morning, we just go to our shop near night market there to train the new staff that just hired by boss.

*Smoking time!!!

*The face of "pek cek"!!!

After few days of training, we let them go to look for sales around the night market area, and we just stay at the office to wait for them. Sometimes, we also followed them so that we can know how's their attitude towards their job. And it's quite boring and tired also if we just stay at the office to wait for them to come back. When we feel bored, it's time to find something meaningless to do.

*Our new trained tattoo master, SOI ZAI!!!

*Don't know what the stupid things he draw. And guess who's hand is it??

*ROY and the tattoo!!!

Normally, we will be at shop from morning until 4.30pm. After that, we will go for dinner because the BCF is going to start on 6.00pm every evening. We mostly went to KFC for our dinner, the one located at Sibu Gateway because we always when that place to photostate our flyers. After dinner while we waiting for our flyers to be done, some of us spent our time at the park there.

*This one only know how to smoke!!!

*Roy with his chinese horoscope, "COW"!!

*Actually, I'm so pai seh when taking this photo because many people was looking at us.

We always doing the same things for this 9 days at Sibu. Every morning wake up, breakfast, office, lunch, office, dinner, BCF, supper then back to room. There's nothing much we can do when we're at Sibu because we were there for working purpose. Although there's something unhappy happen but we still have a lot of fun at Sibu and we also tried many delicious food which I mentioned my previous post, Sibu Again!!!

A Trip to release stress before final exam

So, can you guess what we doing once we reach our room?? From the photo above, you can see that everyone have already position themselves, that's just for 1 reason~~~ It's time to play MAHJONG!!!!

*This is how we position our bed and table we carried from outside!!

*It's MAHJONG time!!!

*Everyone was so concentrate in playing this!!

Ya, there's still 2 person that I haven't introduce. One is my another buddy, Terence who also came back from Malacca for holidays. Another one is Alvin Tang, he is also a scout but he's lazy all the time unless he's doing scout things.

*This is Terence, my buddy also. Don't play play ah, he's a pilot now, second officer of MAS Wings.

*No need I say you people also know he is Alvin, lazy chin ah!!! Come here to sleep nia~~

After our mahjong match, the time is around 4.30 pm, and this is the time another group of our friends reach here. They are Ah Jong, Pin Wei, Kian Wang and Yong Siang. While waiting everyone taking bath, some of us who already taken our bath went for a walk at Permai Beach and Damai Puri. And I'm taking some photo from the lobby corridor of Damai Puri.

*The view of Damai Puri beach.

*Damai Puri Swimming Pool.

*It's almost the time to look at the sunset.

Around 6pm, we went to Buntal to have our dinner. I already forget which the restaurant that we go but the price was reasonable and the food taste very nice also. Especially the seasoned jelly fish. There are 11 of us, and everyone just pay less than Rm15 for the food and drinks.

*Everyone was so hungry while waiting for the food.

*This is what I mentioned about, the delicious Seasoned Jelly Fish.

*Cangkuk Manis, everyone was so kin teo to get it because of too hungry.

*Lemon Chicken.

*Butter Chicken.

*Oyster Omelet, my favourite.

We finished our dinner at around 8pm and we bought some "drinks" from the restaurant for our night. Without the drinks which is also our friend, "HEINEKEN", it would be a boring night. So, it's important for us to remember to "ta pao" our friend back to Permai. But not all of us overnight at there, Ah Ong, Ah Ong's GF and Terence went back home after the dinner. So, just left 8 of us at Permai.

*Although we just bought 1 crate, but it's better than zero!!

*Just a few cups, Ah Jong give up already.

Some of them (Ah Jong, Pin Wei, Yong Siang, Kian Wang) get on bed early after we finished the Heineken while me, Jeremy, Ah Choi and Alvin drove along the way down to Open Air Market to have our supper and then drove back to Permai again. Everyone woke up around 11am at the next day morning, and we just directly checked out after we packed our things and go back to Kuching. This is really a nice trip to release my stress before the final exam.

Half of year 2008 is gone!!!

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 08:13:00 +0000

New semester has started again and it's time to study again. Luckily I just fail 1 subject which is Marketing Planning last semester, but this is what I expected already. So, I will repeat this subject on this semester together with another 3 subjects which is 3D Animation and Special Effects, E-Business and User Experience Design. That's mean, I just have two final exam for this semester because 3D and User Experience Design is coursework based.

When this new semester start, I realised that half of year 2008 is gone already, although the time have passed so fast but at least I can still manage to done most of the things that I planned during the beginning on this year. So, for this semester, hope that it will be same like last semester, everything that have been planned can be completed and done on time.

So, starting from this week, I will going to update many of my post during holidays once I have finish resizing and editing all the photos. What I'm going to post about the activities during my holidays are~~

Sibu Trip (Part 2)
Rainforest Music Festival
Paint Ball (2 post)
KK Trip (Around 2 to 3 post)

Sorry for making everyone here wait so long for my new post. I'm now trying my best to get the photo done and start post it up one by one. Thanks for always coming to my blog!!!

Sibu Again!!!

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 04:17:00 +0000

I'm already back from Sibu on last Sunday, but I start working at the MJC Padawan Fair on that night. It's really hard for me to find a time to blog since I finish my exam, so now I'm using some of my time with my boss laptop and celcom broadband to write my post.

*To Sibu we go!!!
*Me and Soi Zai (Adrian)

*Play until nothing to play!!!

During this Sibu trip, me and my friends were quite familiar with the place already, and this make us convenient because we can easily find a place that sell yummy foods.

*Sibu, we're here again!!!

This time, we're still staying at the same place (near bus terminal) like last time, but this time is not as peace as last time because we met some "good brother". When we were sleeping, the "good brother" turn on the toilet light, play the movie in my laptop, open the paip water for the whole night, take out Ah Wu's cloth form his luggage and hang it on the wall, stole adrian's socks and make it dirty. Luckily the "good brother" just kacau us but not harming us. The room me and roy stay is the same room that me and lucas stay during last trip.

*Soi Zai join me and roy everynight on the same bed.

*Our luggage and stocks.

*This is how we dry our cloths.

*So messy!!!

*Snacks and drinks.

*Ya, still got Heineken. But Sibu Heineken suckss!!

If compared with the last trip, we try lots of yummy foods during this trip. I will show you some foods that I try at Sibu. This trip to Sibu, we got try the beer also but the beer taste bad especially Heineken. If you really want to drink beer at Sibu, you better order guinness stout, because it taste better than others. For me, I prefer come back to Kuching and drink our Kuching Heineken.

*Fried Pork with Thai Style!!
We order this everynight for our dinner.

*Chicken Leg!!
Roy's favourite, he can eat 2 plate by himself.

*Jian Bian Hu!!!
This is the first time i try this.

*Pi Pa To Fu
Homemake tauhu of "Siang Mee Seafood"

*Butter Chicken in fried pan!!
I want vomit after I ate this because half of the pan was full with butter, yaikss!!

*Butter Fried Kailan!!
I woulnd't try second time because it's all butter taste only!!

*Mix Pork Rice!! RM8

So, this is where I stop this post. For the next post, I will write about the our works at Sibu, which is the celcom event at Borneo Cultural Festival (Sibu).

Busy Holiday

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 04:38:00 +0000

Haihzzz.. Still thought that got time to blog during my holiday, manatau I start work on the next day after my final exam. Everyday work from 11am to 10pm, really don't have extra time for online and blogging. At first, the job I work now is to promote celcom business plan at Boulevard Kuching until end of this month, but tomorrow I have to go Sibu for 9 days for the same things. So, will be back to Kuching on 5th or 6th of July. After that, still got the Rainforest event, I have to go there for the same thing also.

What to do, if I didn't earn money in this holiday, I only can eat "grass" when I go KK. Hopefully my salary is enough for me to spend in KK. If can, hope can save some into my bank account also. After KK trip, new semester start, it's time to chiong again!!!

Final Exam is Over!!!

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 10:41:00 +0000

Finally, I have finish my final exam yesterday, it's time for me to start relax, but I start my work tday which is being the celcom promoter at bouelevard until end of this month. Although there is no time for me to have some rest but I can use this chance to earn some money for my KK trip. I 'm going KK from 22nd - 26th of July, but it's all depends on my final exam result. The result will be out on 18th of July and the resit date will be at 24th - 26th of July, hopefully I woundn't have to resit for any subjects. For the four subjects that I took this semester, I really don't have any confident on Marketing Planning. But I think I can pass my Internet and WWW2, Marketing Research and Multimedia Application. If I'm going to resit my Marketing Planning, then I have cancel my KK trip study again the week before the new semester start. So, what I hope now is I can pass my Marketing Planning, if not then just repeating this subject but not resit for this subject.

June Camp @ Pandan Beach

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 08:10:00 +0000

This Monday, I went to Liwah Resort at Pandan Beach with my buddies, Jeremy and Ah Choi. We went there to visit our scout group which having June Camp at there. We reach there around 5.30p.m. every scout members are having their dinner. And this is the last day of the camp, it's almost the time for the camp fire session.

*Around 80+ people joining this camp including members and leaders.

Because everyone was busy preparing for the camp fire, we took some time to walk around the camp site and we found a nice spot which facing to the sea. I took some photos from there and also the beach.

*Nice background from the spot that suitable for fishing.

Below is the slide show of the photos I took during this visit and Pandan Beach with my sony erisson K810. If you want to see more photos of this camp, you can always visit Calvin's blog. All the photo was taken with his Nikon DSLR. Besides than Calvin, you can visit Monster's blog also.

Around 7 p.m, everyone was ready for the camp fire.

*Everyone heading to the beach for camp fire.

*This is the camp fire made by scout~~

The camp fire ends aound 9.30p.m, after that, is time for BBQ!! But me, Jeremy and Ah Choi are pai seh to join because we didn't pay the fee for this camp. We spent our time at there chatting with our scout leaders and some friends until 11p.m. Because we are too hungry so we rush back to Kuching to have our dinner, but it is supper for other people.

I think there is about 1 and a half year I didn't join any scout activities already since I start my degree. After the visit of this camp, I suddenly can feel the fun and excitement of joining scout activities. So, I think it's time for me to join back all the scout activities. But the first thing I have to do is to find my scout uniform. 05th Kuching Scout Group, you're always the best!!!

最初的本心

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 07:56:00 +0000

有個老魔鬼看到人間的生活過得太幸福了，他說：「我們要去擾亂一下，要不然魔鬼就不存在了。」

他先派了一個小魔鬼去擾亂一個農夫。因為他看到那農夫每天辛勤地工作，可是所得卻少得可憐，但他還是那麼快樂，非常知足。

小魔鬼就開始想，要怎樣才能把農夫變壞呢？他就把農夫的田地變得很硬，讓農夫知難而退。那農夫敲半天，做得好辛苦，但他只是休息一下，還是繼續敲，沒有一點抱怨。小魔鬼看到計策失敗，只好摸摸鼻子回去了。

老魔鬼又派了第二個去。第二個小魔鬼想，既然讓他更加辛苦也沒有用，那就拿走他所擁有的東西吧！那小魔鬼就把他午餐的麵包跟水偷走，他想，農夫做得那麼辛苦，又累又餓，卻連麵包跟水都不見了，這下子他一定會暴跳如雷！

農夫又渴又餓地到樹下休息，想不到麵包跟水都不見了！「不曉得是哪個可憐的人比我更需要那塊麵包跟水？如果這些東西就能讓他得溫飽的話，那就好了。」又失敗了，小魔鬼又棄甲而逃。

老魔鬼覺得奇怪，難道沒有任何辦法能使這農夫變壞？就在這時第三個小魔鬼出來了。他對老魔鬼講：「我有辦法，一定能把他變壞。」

小魔鬼先去跟農夫做朋友，農夫很高興地和他作了朋友。因為魔鬼有預知的能力，他就告訴農夫，明年會有乾旱，教農夫把稻種在濕地上，農夫便照做。結果第二年別人沒有收成，只有農夫的收成滿坑滿谷，他就因此而富裕起來了。

小魔鬼又每年都對農夫說當年適合種什麼，三年下來，這農夫就變得非常富有。他又教農夫把米拿去釀酒販賣，賺取更多的錢。慢慢地，農夫開始不工作了，靠著經濟販賣的方式，就能獲得大量金錢。

有一天，老魔鬼來了，小魔鬼就告訴老魔鬼說：「您看！我現在要展現我的成果。這農夫現在已經有豬的血液了。」只見農夫辦了個晚宴，所有富有的人都來參加；喝最好的酒，吃最精美的餐點，還有好多的僕人侍候。他們非常浪費地吃喝，衣裳零亂，醉得不省人事，開始變得像豬一樣癡肥愚蠢。「您還會看到他身上有著狼的血液。」小魔鬼又說。

這時，一個僕人端著葡萄酒出來，不小心跌了一跤。農夫就開始罵他：「你做事這麼不小心！」「唉！主人，我們到現在都沒有吃飯，餓得渾身無力。」「事情沒有做完，你們怎麼可以吃飯！」

老魔鬼見了，高興地對小魔鬼說：「唉！你太了不起！你是怎麼辦到的？」小魔鬼說：「我只不過是讓他擁有比他需要的更多而已，這樣就可以引發他人性中的貪婪。」

心若改變，你的態度跟著改變；
態度改變，你的習慣跟著改變；
習慣改變，你的性格跟著改變；
性格改變，你的人生跟著改變。

這篇文章分享給每一個在為夢想努力奮鬥的你，提醒我們在努力追求夢想的同時，千萬不要忘了最初的本心。

Final Exam is coming!!!

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Wed, 28 May 2008 15:00:00 +0000

My final exam starts at 10th of June, which mean there is just about 1 week time for me to do my revision. This semester, I got 4 papers for my final exam which is Marketing Planning, Marketing Research, Multimedia Application and The Internet & WWW 2. For now, I haven't started my revision yet because I still have to deal with the second assignment of The Internet & WWW 2 which due on next week. So, three days holiday of Gawai is for me to complete this assignment. After that, it's time for me to really start my revision.

I only can finish my assignment during Gawai because I work as promoter for Sony Roadshow which start from tommorow 29th May until 1st June at The Spring shopping mall. Many people might think that I was crazy because now is the time to start revision for final exam but I still go to work at The Spring. For me, I wouldn't think about the final exam first in these few days, after the Sony Roadshow then I will start burning midnight oil so that I can pass my final exam.

Hahaha, this is the real @lex lim. Always doing last minutes works, because I already get use to it since I was in secondary school. I really hope that I can change this attitude, but not for this semester, may be start from next semester. =p

Below is the photo of Fast Food for Beijing Olympic 2008. And all these food really can attract foreigners from other countries. Guess what so special about all these foods~~

If you got the chance to taste these kind of food, do you dare to try it?? For me, I think the corn with ginger sauce would be my best choice.

When Graphic Designer Get Bored!!

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Sat, 17 May 2008 09:00:00 +0000

What will you do when you feel bored?? For me, may be i will just online, blogging, hanging out with friends, eat and sleep. But for graphic designer, they can use their knowledge and skills when they're bored. Below is some photo that edited by them.

*Frog with orange skin!!!

*Is this idea come from the movie "CJ7"??

*Want to have some kiwi??

*Red Alert!!!

*Poison Banana!!!

*Animals or Plants??

*The sign prove that it is a "lady" bugs!!

*Prepare to die!!!

*Want to try this "jet coaster"??

*I'm the captain.

*Space War!!!

*Painting nails for giant??

*Olympic Champion

*Which one should I use for today??

So, now we know what will happen when graphic designer get bored. But with their skills and knowledge, we can also look a their "project" when we're bored. I'm taking graphic design course also, may be I will become one of them when I'm bored after I master all my design skills and knowledge.

Article made by Jay Chow's Song Title

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Mon, 12 May 2008 07:29:00 +0000

I received this article in my hotmail. This article is full of Jay Chow's Song, can you find how many Jay Chow's songs that used in this article??

如果爱在西元前，我愿意回到过去，带着你的黑色毛衣，一路向北飘移；就算没有轨迹，我也不会离开放弃，因为我相信你听得到，我们的暗号；反方向的钟敲响回忆，你常说你是完美主义，要一直和娘子简单爱下去；那个晴天，园游会里，你为了七里香四处寻觅，我举着麦芽糖乱发脾气；你用黑色幽默哄我开心，却开不了口讲甜言蜜语，我则笑你像蜗牛傻得可以；枫在一旁和声细语，我在这里安静聆听，故乡梯田渐渐远离，以父之名讲述过去；上海 1943，外婆尚且年轻，她的睫毛浓密，如今发如雪矣，时光逆鳞回去，东风破曲依稀；我恋珊瑚海的美丽，你爱伊斯坦堡神秘，你说总有一天火车叨位去，印第安老斑鸠盘旋天际，而威廉古堡正等待着你我的足迹；我们还要一起去探寻半岛铁盒的神奇，听说米兰的小铁匠曾与之不离不弃；还记得我们一起在爷爷泡的茶里，品味永不搁浅的爱情，听他讲述乱舞春秋般的离奇；你常找借口离我而去，和三年二班的球友斗牛较技；那时的夜晚总是星晴，我的地盘屋顶栖息，我用浪漫手机传递着爱你的讯息，你用同一种调调弹奏着肖邦的夜曲，可断了的弦早已没有力气，只好像懦夫一样被你调戏；你崇拜霍元甲的一身正气，挥起双刀所向披靡，耍起双节棍无与伦比，可你打的龙拳却像忍者蹿来跳去。直到有一天蓝色风暴来袭，四面楚歌响起，我被龙卷风卷入了爱情悬崖无法逃离，将军如困兽之斗拼命杀敌，为他的可爱女人和半兽人展开最后的战役，看着你止战之殇般死去，那最后一声的对不起，宣告我世界末日的降临她就像可爱女人一样的被半兽人抓进了威廉古堡,被抓走的路上她像是忍者般的留下了只有我才看的懂得暗号,在这最后的战役里我以龙卷风的速度施展着龙拳,耍着双节棍安静的将她救了出来,他问我火车刁位去? 他说:我要带你去沙漠看印地安老斑鸠, 去伊斯坦堡看星晴, 喝爷爷泡的茶,但...我...我却不懂她的黑色幽默. 她...她居然像是反方向的钟一样的说要跟我《**》,为了挽回她的心我只好请米兰的小铁匠帮我做一个半岛铁盒. 我有点开不了的跟她说:对不起.. 虽然我是完美主义者, 但..我也愿意简单爱而且我了你我也已经放弃斗牛了...我希望能够跟你像上海 1943的爱情故事一样的回到过去让我们可以爱在公元前...她...感动了...最后...我抱着我的娘子, 回到了家公元1104, 我在这里以父之名，为我的娘子弹上一曲东风破。就算有断了的弦，我依然相信你听得到，因为它和我的心跳是同一种调调，这是我们的暗号。假如可以用反方向的钟回到过去，我不会让宿命按着轨迹发生，我不会像懦夫一样开不了口，我不会让锁妖塔成为我们最后的战役……我要带你一起离开，我要让你比从前快乐，我要实现我们完美主义的誓言，我要带你回林家堡，说一声爸我回来了；我会陪你玩双截棍或是双刀，也会伴成半兽人或是忍者逗你开心，就算你生气使出龙拳，我也要微笑的接下……呵呵，这样的安静让我有些语无伦次，我只想带着我们的简单爱，来到蜀山上的爱情悬崖，对过去说一声对不起，等待你相信的轮回。公元2004 就算到了世界末日，我依然感谢上苍让我在三年二班遇见这个酷爱斗牛的可爱女人我记得你说你喜欢威廉古堡里的印地安的老斑鸠，还有伊斯坦堡梯田上的蜗牛；你说你想回到上海 1943喝一口爷爷泡的茶，再看看什么叫做火车叨位去，最后随着龙卷风去看星晴……但你有时也常翻脸不理会我，要我发誓没有偷看她的睫毛。明知道这是你独有的黑色幽默，我也会甘心当一个米兰的小铁匠，为你打制你最爱的半岛铁盒，换回你的笑……在那个晴天第一次见到你，我就觉得，我们早就爱在西元前了。那时忘了告诉你，其实，我也相信轮回!!

LEA CENTRE Sales

noreply@blogger.com (@lex) — Mon, 05 May 2008 06:06:00 +0000

LEA Centre is having the their grand stock clearance start from last two weeks, and today is the last day. This mean that you can get any item with half price only. I bought some sports wears from there last weeks. And I found that there were so many people at there although the shop is going to close already during night time. Few days ago, I went back to there again to buy myself a court shoes. This sales is having on the right time because I always went to play badminton recently, at least 2 times a week to keep fit.

*Branch at Plaza Walk (Sarawak Plaza). Not much people during dinner time.

*RM50 for two Lotto shirts!!!

*RM40 for two Dunlop pants!!

*RM39 for this Dunlop court shoes.

Lea Center is having their sales at the right time because I always went to play badminton and futsal recently. And I spent about RM120+ only for two sets of sport wears and a court shoes. All the money I spent is the salary I get from Sibu Pikom PC Fair. With another badminton racket which cost RM90 that I bought at Arena Sports, I spent all my salary just for SPORTS. So, I really have to start saving now for my KK trip on this July.
