  • breaking news

    good evening. this just in. this morning, the security forces of a very tall building here received an anonymous call from someone claiming to be a member of a group of misfits. the caller claimed that something was misplaced somewhere within the area. due to that, the inhabitants of all nearby buildings went out…

  • somewhat well rested (a mostly yay day)

    but not in pieces. well, then there are some. hie. 🙂 woke up late, at about 10.30 (yay). had lunch with sis and JL at sushi king, klcc (yay). sent sis to great eastern for an interview (…). picked up a new MSI 865PE Neo2-V motherboard at low yat (yay). got my copy of…

  • rest in pieces

    damn, my site looks weird on Firefox/FreeBSD/Gnome. very eventful day today. yesterday too. let’s jog my memory a bit. i planned to visit Tiff at the PC Fair on saturday, wanting to go with her and all that, but i woke up late and was already messing around with my motherboard by the time…

  • coins = embarassment

    decided to convert my bag of coins today, collected throughout the past 1-2 years. add a few golden coins and we have one helluva heavy shoe box. so this morning, i lugged it down to the carpark from home. drove to work. lugged it from Plaza Pantai to Menara Telekom, and up the elevator…

  • updates

    ahhhh monday. another week of slaving. promotion seems closer now; it’s silhouette floating just beyond my view. and yet, i am unable to reach out to it, just to touch it even seems hard. sigh sigh sigh. well, to start of the day, i’ve been updating some stuff on friendster. adding friends, updating my…

  • bloody mcds

    ordered 2 bubur ayam. arrived late. with most of the gravy spilled to the bottom of the plastic bag. seems pretty obvious that the mcds delivery team lacks a certain level of commitment to do things right. all the other established delivery services from Dominos and Pizza Huts have somewhat adequate quality control to…

  • kids and managers

    what’s with kids and leaving the bathroom lights on? almost every other time i’d find the light on in the morning. makes me wonder if they have some sort of green invisible pet living there. it’s not like it’s hard to get up and turn it off. and feigning ignorance won’t work; my sister’s…

  • errors down south

    susah susah. my pc has been crashing relentlessly lately. i may have pushed it too far. my graphics RAM now runs properly at a lower clock rate, and prime95 has been giving lotsa errors too. checking back my documentation, i guess i set the timings too tight. so my graphics card is broken, and…

  • away from work. not.

    today begins a week of training in Bangi. this time, we’re to be taught how to prepare and deliver proper presentations. 5-days of topics covering ‘basic’ skills. on friday, a final presentation to determine whether we’re fit to teach (and get the teaching allowance! :D). not as relaxing as i thought it’d be. even…

  • finger safety

    last night i almost ripped my right index fingernail off when it got caught in my cpu fan. was investigating a rattling noise (which originated from my northbridge fan) and thought i could stop the fan by sticking a finger in. smart, eh? well, looks like i won’t need to change my cpu casing…
