doh, just realised all WoW realms are down for weekly maintenance. 🙁 taking a break sure is nice. will still be on leave till tomorrow. hope i don’t forget how to work 😀 by the way, merry christmas, and a happy new year to all! 😀 was planning to to go town today, but…

forgive me god, for i have splurged. i have spent my $ away. 3.5k on a wider view, 1k on some computer brain, and 170 on a bondage to virtuality. forgive me god, for i have paid. donated some part of my life away. 31 hours, this week alone, exploring worlds on the computer…

looked out my office window today to witness a fire at one of the neighboring setinggan communities. it was spreading rapidly, helped out by the strong winds. can see tiny masses of people congregating at one area, and lotsa motorcycle lights heading away. heard sirens, and saw one engine on the federal highway. didn’t…

this entry is a work in progress. more snapshots to come. (edit 18/12 11:25am) the shots look very dim on my computer, since they’re saved without the gamma adjustments. but they should appear quite alright on anyone else’s pc.

yay yay money in the bank. time to splurge! 1300 to RAM. 150 to HSBC Visa. the rest to Maybank Mastercard. then it’s a 12-month installment on a Dell 2005FPW monitor! and maybe the case-modding tools. anyway, i almost started world of warcraft last night. i would’ve, if it weren’t for the 287MB patch…

everything is somewhat in order now. brb. sleep time. 😛 (edit @ 9:02pm) if you missed my quickie, here’s a background of what happened: was planning to upgrade to freebsd 6.0 over the weekend, but after putting it off quite a bit, i only did the cutover on sunday night. suffered some graphics problem…

related? nope. the night b4 yesterday, tiff, merv, and i met up at ikano for dinner. wired’s mom’s b’day was coming up soon, and merv was looking at a wireless panasonic steam iron. merv picked me up on the way (yay). so there we were, at harvey norman, checking out prices with some smses/calls…

the garage – php project. on hold. myuucon – system integration project. no new developments planned. 4ghz – overclocking project. on hold pending procurement of new parts. here i am planning for my next experiment: case modding. it basically ties back to the overclocking project, mainly to improve airflow and perhaps make my computer…
