I'm going down to North Carolina next week and I'm all excited about it. =D

Why is it when guys try to touch a girl's boobs, the girl gets over reacted and then slaps the guy?

But why isn't this guy complaining? I don't get it...

Looks like I wont be celebrating CNY for the 1st time of my 23 blissful years of my life.

My time is limited.

Once again.

**takes a deep breath**

22nd Feb 2010.

11.30am.

I wished it was here but at the same time, I wished I had more time to prepare.

But I guess I'm just trying to avoid the reality, yet I wanna face it and bring it down when I felt I'm being challenged.

I want to win.

I'm a winner.

I'm born to win!

Do pray hard for me everyone.

I'm A Product Faulty Manufacturing.

I did something today which I wished I hadn't. Losing one thing is still bearable. Losing everything makes me feel stupid.

Today a 15 years old girl came to me to ask for donation for an orphanage.
Instead of giving her they money, I had a chat with her and lectured her on why she should go back to school.
I just feel sad that some people are even more lost than I am.
Good bye everything.

Never trust a guy who has a wife. They can never keep promises. (From me. Benjamin Siew Wan Siong)

I'm in such bad mood today.
Today I shall draw a conclusion that since the day I left my Form 6 for this Trainee Aircraft Maintenance Engineer programme to be a Licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (LAME... That's what it's called. Lolz...), nothing in my life is a success..
Since that day, the stuff that I do always goes off to a good start and then meets a sudden tragic turn point and fails prematurely. Nothing I've done so far succeed in the long run.. NOTHING!!!
I'm an abomination of life... I'll trade money for success anytime of the day. Well... Not all of the money of course. I still love money.

Okay, stop the bitching and rant some senseless and random stuff.
Since that's what most readers want to read in a person's blog, not some really private stuff.. Except for sex that is. But okay, let's not get too far fetched.

Today by sheer chance I bumped into this twitter account @bensiew and had a sudden thought to myself and said "Hey! How does all the Benjamin Siews in the world looks like!" So that's what I did.
Googled...
Facebook-ed..
Twitter-ed...
Friendster-ed...

Results:

Meet Benjamin Siew. His twitter is @BenSiew and his Facebook.

Meet Benjamin Siew. A professional photographer? His facebook.

Meet Benjamin Siew. A private pilot? His facebook. HEY WAIT!!! A PILOT?!?! WTF!!!

So there you go..
Four Benjamin Siews if you include me.
Oh! You wanna know a WTF moment?
I came to realization that I own @BenjaminSiew and benjaminsiew.blogspot.com and www.benjaminsiew.com
And none of these Benjamin Siews have! It's like I'm the original Benjamin Siew and they are the counterfeit Benjamin Siew!
And and and!!!
You know what's the biggest bomb? Benjamin isn't my official registered name. LOLZ!!!

P/s : By the way, can anybody explain to me why all the Benjamin Siews has single eye lids and are thin? Where else i'm the opposite? >_<

男人其实是最专一的.因为从20岁到80岁的男人都喜欢20岁左右年轻漂亮的女人

Wow...
What an amazing week I had..

Everybody, meet Mr. Azran Osman-Rani. CEO of AirAsia X Sdn Bhd.

I had the privilege to speak to the CEO of AirAsia X one on one for 45min.
And boy I tell you how surprised I was when he actually agreed to schedule a time slot for me and meet me.
This guy is definitely far sighted, brilliant, humble, and has a taste for expensive stuff (ie cufflinks, Breitling.. ;) )
Anyway, what I was trying to say is that the 45min I had was like the best lesson I had in life so far. You cannot learn any more than from a person who really gets the job done.

Meet Mr. Derek Tan(middle). AirAsia's Corporate blogger.

On my left is Yi Yang. My accomplice in crime. Haha..
Anyway, this fella Derek has like the coolest job in the world I think.
He blogs for a living. Like literally. And gets paid well with a stable income and get free travel benefit too!
And you know what cooler than getting paid to blog?
Being able to wear t-shirt and jeans to work.
Gosh you guys gotta come see their work culture.
I don't think there's many public listed company that I know of which allow their staffs to wear so casually in their office.

Wokies, I'm going back to my drawing board to think of more ideas for world domination!

Today Subang Airport will be hosting our annual Air Show. The American F-16 will be doing some performance too! Not to be missed!

Hello there..
This is my 2nd time typing the same post again because my computer somehow mysteriously had a hardware failure and forced the computer to shut down even before my browser could save a copy into google's server.

So well, now that I've finished with my 2nd wave of exams again, I now have another 2 months or less break left to really relax my brain before I have to face for another wave of exams again. Hopefully in a few months time I could sit for my oral examination and acquire my basic engineering license.
So with this scarces time that I have, today I shall do a photo blog. Hmmm.. Not an elaborated one though, but it's good enough to be qualified to be "plog". Lolz.

Anyway, this week went by really quick with work and some interesting stuff that came along. Looking forward to see what is going to happen in the future.
Oh, guess who I shook hands and took photo with?

Dato Seri Idris Jala. MAS ex-MD and now currently a minister without portfolio

Dato Tengku Azmil Zahruddin. ex-CFO and now currently the MD.

Meeting them and having a small chat up with very fulfilling for some reason.
Hopefully the local aviation industry will turn for the better sooner than expected.

Every Flight Has A Destination. I've Found Mine.

2009-09-13T14:30:00.012+08:00

I remember the first time I took my girl friend, Meng Cheng home and introduced her to my family. Naturally, my parents were curious how we met and I told them we met over the South China Sea. Both my mom and dad gave me this blank clueless stare and wondering what I was talking about.

Hello there, my name is Benjamin Siew Wan Siong. I'm currently 22 this year and an employee of Malaysia Airlines Engineering & Maintenance Division. Being 22 years old and working for an airline, it's a no brainer question on what I do with my free time. I travel!
And when I say travel, boy do I mean it. I always make it an effort to stop finding those excuses and just go wherever I want to go. But there's this one particular flight and I would love to talk about and it doesn't even tire me a bit even if I'm repeating it for the gazillion time!

You see, the funny thing about faith is that it won't happen until you start believing in them. Of the many flights I took before, the seats next to me that I usually get are empty. I've once experienced a packed flight and yet, mysteriously, the right seat of my window seat was empty! This was happening to me without fail until this one day, during February 2008. It was after my birthday that I decided to opt for a trip up to Kuching, Sarawak just right before Chinese New Year holidays. Then It was this flight, to Kuching, that I prayed that someone would sit next to me. Right after that, a sweet looking girl who was in her 20s and had a Nikon D80 DSLR in her hand, sat down next to me. I thought to myself that either I got myself a late birthday present or an early Christmas present.

That's Meng Cheng! Photos taken from the A330 cockpit with the permission from the Captain of course!

Knowing how clumsy sometimes I can be with girl, we didn't speak to each other at first and I was just reading The Star Newspaper that I got when I was boarding. After half hour into the journey, and noticing that the only reading material she had was the in-flight magazine, I offered my Section 2 of The Star Newspaper to her, but she TURNED ME DOWN! I was stunned and said "WHOA! You must be like the 1st person to ever not want to read the entertainment section of the newspaper". And believe it or not, that was how our conversation started. On that flight, while passing over the South China Sea en route to Kuching, we shared a conversation. We got to know each other's name, that we have a mutual friend from her college, she was going to Kuching to be a photographer for a friend's wedding, her hobby, places that she travelled. And that was when the clumsiness in me kicked in and I asked her AGE. Now there's a common rule of thumb that guys should never ask a girl's age or weight, but I did. Part of me wanted run into the lavatory and hide inside there till the end of the flight. But instead of that happening, she told me she just turned 21 a few days ago on the 27th of January. My face stopped smiling and there was this dizziness feeling in me that told me that all these seem so unreal. I immediately took out my IC and showed her my birthday. Soon enough, she too gave me that same look that I was giving her. We shared the same birthday!

Soon after we landed and before we parted ways, we exchanged contacts. And for some reason, the Kuching holiday didn't quite matter to me any more. My mind and soul was thinking about her most of the time. So we kept in touch even after my trip to Kuching and a few days before Valentine's Day, I challenged my manhood and ask her out to be my Valentine's Day date. I gasped and my heart skipped a beat when she said yes but with 1 condition. She told me that the dinner has to be a non-meat menu as she was a VEGETARIAN! I Immediately panicked as the restaurant that I had in mind wasn't going to work and I don't know any romantic vegetarian diner so I started firing out email around to ask for help. It was then one of the blogger Lim Su Ann a.k.a Pinkpau suggested The Apartment in KLCC. I immediately drove down to KLCC and made the necessary reservation. Lucky for me, they had a vegetarian menu and their staff was superbly kind and helpful.

Me and my lovely Meng Cheng at The Apartment KLCC.

Came Valentine's Day, both of us had a wonderful night out and that was when I told her my intention that I wanted to be together with her. She smiled. And after a few months later, we were both officially together.

Our first time celebrating our birthday together.

It's been a year plus now what I and Meng Cheng have been together. The girl that I knew over South China Sea, was the best thing that ever happened to me in my life. Thanks to MH, we had one hell of a year together doing the things we love most. Travelling!

Lundu, Sarawak. 2 hours drive away from Kuching City.

Manukan Island, Sabah. First time witnessing a sea that is blue in colour!

Suntec City, Singapore. Mocked-up wedding for an indoor garden exhibition.

Bali Island, Indonesia. Witnessing the cultural dance.

Perth, Australia. Feeding the Kangaroos!

And that being said. I do hope I and Meng Cheng will have many more years of happiness to come. Every flight has a destination. I've found mine. Which lies in the heart of me beloved.

So really, everyone have heard of world domination and killing all mankind.

Now to put things into perspective, how many nukes does it really take to destroy all mind kind.
And is it really possible?
Below I'll include an illustrated version of what's what.

So is it really possible to kill all mankind with nukes?
Don't think so.

Scams in Malaysia.

2009-08-08T14:01:00.002+08:00

**Did You Know**
Ex-president George Bush Sr and Jr are also a pilots.

I got this article from somewhere which is quite worth reading it. But I'm not sure about the accuracy of the info. So just be aware instead of being sorry. Have fun. Super busy now. Bye.

1. The Cafe Scams - Island Red Cafe & Stevens Corner

(strange, both in Pandan Indah) - Island Red Cafe collects members
RM6,000 each and promised 5% return every month and even give
you a name in the ROC as a shareholder but what*s the point when they
run away? Stevens Corner, the famous indian coffee
shop follows due to drop of business since their renovation. They
collect RM3,000 per member and promise return of RM150 monthly and
plans to open nice fanchisee cafe called StevensTeaGarden. Someone
mentioned they will make you sign an agreement that give them the
rights NOT to pay you anything in future. If you really wish to join,
ask for a copy of their agreement and consult your lawyer BEFORE paying
them. Bet you will NOT get a copy. Both collect monies from new members
with MLM recruitment schemes and pay the old members like Sunshine
Empire. You never know when they will run away.

2. Sunshine Empire

This licensed and legal Company has an impressive office at the ground
level of KUB building along Jalan Yap Kwan Seng, near Menara Public Bank
and AmBank Building . They also have a showroom office at the ground
level in the next building. 3 or 4 months ago, Singapore*s
Straits Times and The Paper published big news reminding their people
to be careful and NOT to believe in them. Hope someone can put up the
link or google for it.(As expected, they STOPPED paying back members
now and all investors LOST their money). Someone below has put a link to
the Singapore news. In fact there are more to it. Although Singapore is
investigating them, they did not stop their business as the business is
legal and so far, no Singaporean have failed to receive their
commissions as promised. Thus, the government cannot stop them yet. The
news published that the founder, director and group president is someone
named James Phang but he is NOT the owner. Isn*t this quite strange ?
At the end of the game, James Phang can just disappear from the Company
easily and claimed that he was just *employed*. Such trick always
happened in scam businesses. Now, the Company has STOPPED paying
commissions and interests to members with the excuse that the Singapore
government has freezed their bank account while under investigation. Do
you think their boss will be so stupid to keep much monies in the bank
to be freezed? They are all transfered away. It*s just an excuses not
to > pay back to members and members are only paid *e-bonus-points*
which is cashless. If they wish to convert to cash, they have to recruit
new members to pay them cash and the recruiter less out trom the amount.
So victims act like Vampires and *forced* to victimise other victims
if they wish to get their monies back. And their victims will later
transform to vampires and the scam carries on*..

3. MobilWallet

This Company owned by 2 young men, Stanley & Rey Gan, office in Queens
Avenue Park has collect multi-millions the last 2 years.
Claimed that they tied up with Telekoms, Utility Board payment like
Water & Electricity bills, even Maybank got fooled by them.
Advertisement Billboards everywhere. They STOPPED paying back their
members few months ago and the members cannot do anything because they
are made to sign an agreement unaware that they have to claims if the
company stopped paying them by CHANGING terms and policies.

4. Water Business - Oxygenated and Alkaline Water Products

Some of these are bottled water and some are filters or equipment that
claimed the trick..One of the better known Company that sold
*oxygen* water is SITO (supposed to stand for Selangor
International Trading Organiszation and claimed Selangor State
Government owned some share in
it). The key person and founder is a Dato Robert Ong from Rawang but
his name is no longer in the business now. Their products are sold for
RM2 to RM3 for a 350ml bottle and now concentrating mostly in the
Indian market. Their Chinese and Malays market are long gone since a
year or 2 ago. Their customers are made to believe that their water has
more oxygen and able to give miraculous effects for the body. Water is
H2O, how to put more O into it ? Anyone knows how much oxygen do we
breathe into our body everyday at FOC ? Latest news is that this SITO
Company is going to create new label to market under a new Company
since the SITO name has already gone bad. Someone informed that this
Company is owing alot of money(due to refunds) to ex-stockists but just
refuse to pay them. (Latest news, SITO shifted to another place and
their MLM business has closed but planning to start again with a
different name, beware!!)

Alkaline Products - Can anyone explain how it can work for the body ?
The stomach*s gastric liquid is so acidic that water of any pH that
goes through it will not make any difference.

5. Car Fuel Booster - K-Link

K-Link, the famous scam MLM Company that sold the footpatch TAKARA,
later the *cock-ring* and energy-card launched the patrol-saving
pills last year. Got so hot that even grocery shops are selling for
them. Recently many of these cars that used the pills are rushing to the
workshops to clean the residual. Few months ago, another MLM Company
launched a fuel booster gadget, claimed that saves up to 20% fuel, that
is attached to the
cigarette lighter. Started off well using binary plan but businese
begin to fade now and most users find it NOT effective.

6. Perfumery Products

(eg. Lampe Berger & Bel Air)(more details later). Lampe Berger is not
so hot now in the neighbouring countries but there are still new
victims every month in Malaysia . Must thanks to those who have
contributed and kept the thread alive and Kopitiam. Bel-Air have
closed in Malaysia . LB is almost zero in Singapore . This perfumery
product from France with over 100 years history is just bottles and
fragrance (check the factory*s website) but the Company marketing them
in Asia claimed *aromatheraphy* products. Hong Kong TVB aired a
program that exposed their scam but their members claimed that HK*s
TVB already apologised to them. Note that the biggest strenght in a MLM
Scam is their members will go all way out to lie in order to defend for
their Company. The reason is simple; these members fear that they will
not be able to make their money back if the Company collapsed. Knowing
that the Lampe Berger products are moving slow, they add a line of
skincare products named Estebel, also claime to have over 100 years
history in France. (Hardly anymore Chinese newcomers, they are now
tapping the Malays in Malaysia.)

7. Energy Products

(eg. stone pendants, bracelets, mattress and pillows). They use all
sorts of gimmicks and demonstration to make you into believing
them. They will do some tricks and demo to prove that these products
really produce energy BUT is there any tricks in their demo? So what if
there really produce energy; is it good or strong enough to help the
body? The effect is actually PLACEBO which I will elaborate in a new
thread soon. (More details later.)

8. Hi-Tech Products

Names like bio-tech, nano-tech that claimed millions of dollars of
research involved, eg Bio-Young and XKL few years ago. Most of these
will claimed a professor behind them (even with name and picture of a
person) or used words like *U.S.A. formula*, *German Technology*
or *Nanotechnology* and no further details (more details later). If
you ask for more details like the professor or factory*s address, the
answer will be *trade secrets*.

9. Investment Schemes

SWISSCASH is the King of all. Swisscash is nearly over now but there
are many similar and smaller ones that are still on. (Now, it*s closed
or stopped paying back members.)

10. GoldQuest

This Company that claimed to be HK-based started with some non-value
gold-plated coins that are sold for over RM2,000 have several
names and changed products several times. QuestVacation, QuestNet, etc.
They have several offices in Amcorp Mall, PJ and their key person (in
fact, the owner), a Malaysian Indian was arrested last year in Indonesia
for having involved in a very big Phillipines scam. Most of their
overseas offices are closed or inactive but their Malaysia business is
still hot, with some *energy* products. (Can someone please provide
a link which showed the news that their boss was involved in a big scam
in Philippines and was arrested in last year?)

11. Numerogy & Fortune Telling

A Company named Visiber is using MLM to sell fortune telling classes
using your birthday based on numerology fortune telling.
Prpspects will be told that they need to buy a certain *number*
between 1 to 9 in the form of pendants or bracelets made of stainless
steel and sold from RM600 to RM20,000. Customers, or rather victims are
mostly females from rural areas. Very hot in Penang now and a number of
spin-off Companies have started.

12. MJ - Life

MJ-Life - This Company boost of a very big background with many many
years of history which is NOT true. Their people or associates may
be long in business but nothing to do with their MLM launched recently.
Why do I consider it a scam or bad? New members are told to pay a sum
of money (up to RM1000) and you get NOTHING for it. You only get a
membership can entitle you to enjoy all sorts of special price and
discounts when you have medical check-ups in their centres.. They will
claim all those check-ups cost more if done elsewhere. It*s
not true. Only the naive and those new to medical check-ups will fall
victims to them. Most members who paid the money ended up with nothing.

13. Seaweed Venture Scams

1 such Company is located in Taman Maluri, Cheras. They will ask you to
invest a few thousands ringgits for their venture of growing seaweeds in
East Malaysia and you are guaranteed returns. To gain your confidence
further, they will tell you your investment money is secured by
*insurance* or *unit trusts* & *trustees*. When you ask
for further documents to prove, they will give all sorts of excuses or
just ignore you because they know they cannot get you. These Seaweed
scam is one of the hottest now, warn all your friends about it before
they are victimised.

14. MXM (Previously MGM)

This is a master scam among the younger group, very successful 2 or 3
years ago but since there moved to their big 10-storey office at
Phileo Damansara and changed name to MXM, their business dropped. They
collect members RM3,000 to RM4,000 with credit card monthly easy
payment and in return you get a hospital benefits insurance from
Pacific Insurance worth only a few hundred RMs together with some
you-don*t-need medical check-ups from their associate Company
Pathlab. Also talk about fitness, lifestyles bullshit that is all
worthless.

15. Gano Excel

This company from the north, a copycat of DXN selling Lingzhi capsules
created a new Company called Gano iTouch to cash-in on the
internet like e-Cosway after their Company went down the drain since
the last 2 years, selling Linzhi and some no-value energy pendants and
alkaline water gadgets. They provide free transport every weekend from
KL to visit their Alor Star office.

16. NuLife (HK)

This Company started by some HK people has been in Malaysia for more
than 10 years but they have flopped in HK and Malaysia due to bad
management and a product scam making use of a prosecuted American named
Dr Jeffrey Bland, found guilty of false products claim. Since this case
in the US leaked out and many Malaysians found out that the real boss
in HK is a Steven Tang (he cheated many Malaysians in another scheme
about 20 years ago) their business went down all the way. Now they
claim Malaysian partners cheated them and start a new Company in
Malaysia . Watch out, this new Company will come out with some
investment scheme idea that will get many to lose their money.

17. Arowana Fish Breeding

Oora from Germany , Biofuel (Kompleks Maluri) etc - These are some
newer scams. Arowana fish venture ask you to invest some money and give
you fixed return. Biofuel will tell you their Indonesia connections
(just like Sunshine Empire before using Taiwan) & Oora from Germany(I
never trust those cruel Germans) that market some bio-chips and a gadget
that claims to give energy and therapeutic effects of accupunture,
tai-chi, yoga, etc depending how you set the toy-like gadget, wear it on
your body and you get the effect later. They could not explain or
provide any demonstration to prove their effectiveness. Only doctors and
papers claim that I will never trust. The health effect is actually
PLACEBO, which I will elaborate in a
different thread.

Finally there's orders today after almost 2 months of hiatus.. Stupid recession... >_<

It's been a long time I've not blogged.
As usual, I have a million and one things to say and show, but due to the long duration of procrastination, I think I've forgot most of the things I wanted to share with you all.
Haha..
I hate to procrastinate..
But under certain lifestyle, there's always something better to do than just blog..
I'm sorry if I give the impression that my daily life is much more interesting that yours.
But in actual fact, most of the time it is.. =P
But the other time, work is just like an everyday affair... ROUTINE...

So yes, I got back from Perth last week.
If I have to summarize my Perth trip into 3 words, they would be "PEACEFUL", "BORING" and "EXPENSIVE".
PEACEFUL - Okay, I'm not sure about other places, but the people in Perth are so polite and softspoken that I couldn't eavesdrop a single word they say!
BORING - Oh for Peat's sake, the place was so boring!! Even their casino in Burswood was so boring that I could sleep on the blackjack table...
EXPENSIVE - And I mean really really expensive!! A normal salad cost me 6AUD.. My fish and chips cost me 20++ AUD. A normal 600ml soda drink cost RM2.20 in Malaysia, but cost 3.50AUD all around Perth. @_@
Anyway, one thing that I learn from this trip, is that I should avoid travelling with my GF when she is about to have her monthly thingy.. She could be a total BITCH I tell ya!!!
And I better keep a mental note on that.. Hmmmm..

Anyway, I met up with Emily Tan Chooi Leng and her friends there in Perth and decided to take a photo together..

Anyway, more photos of Perth in Facebook.. Soon...

And oh..
Before I sign off, I'll be updating the next post pretty late again as I'll being going to the UK at the end of the month..
Uh... Hope my wallet can keep up with my travellings...
>_<

Signing of...
With love..=P

Hello guys..
Although I'm burying myself in books and question for my upcoming exam, I really have to share this article with you guys.

It's about the 5 current most exquisite food that people usually pay high price for, which was once rubbish food that no one was ever interested if not feared of eating.

Enough of endless wandering thoughts.
Just to lighten your mood, I would like to share a song with everybody.
It's from a local band called Estranged, which I think they found a spot in my library of music genre.

And the song of the day is ITU KAMU - ESTRANGED (Yes, it's a Malay song my friends. I do listen to a few selected good Malay songs.)
Don't click on the name if you want to download the song. Benjamin Siew doesn't support illegally downloaded songs..

So while we're at it, watch the video of the song.

And of course not forgetting the lyrics for you guys..

Estranged - Itu Kamu

Segala yang ku pasti akan aku capai tuk mengambil hati mu
Melepasi angkasa cinta ku
Sesudah aku melafazkan kesemua yang diperlu
Ianya seperti suluhan yang terang

Segala yang kau ragui akan ku padam habis dari hati mu
Mengingkari dalaman akal mu
Takkan puasku, mengiringi semua tawa dan tangisanmu,
Anggun jiwamu, pelita yg terang

Hatiku mahumu
Rupamu
Masih masih masih masih…

(Chorus)
Kau terindah
Masih ada
Yang tercantik
Itu Kamu

Tiada mengapa taupun sampai bila kerna cinta enggan kenal mengalah
Memanah masuk hatiku yang reti
Setelah kau nampak tetap ku masih menunjukkan erti hidupku
Yang mahu bersama kau buat selamanya…

Okay, on the other hand, let me share with you guys about something that cheered me up today.

Experience only teaches you when you are willing to challenge your failure. (From my wandering thoughts.)

And that's me.. Snoozing away after studying and a heavy lunch.

Life lately has just all been about studying and studying..
Exams are coming right up and serves you in the face when you're least aware.
But I'm anticipating it'll be around 26 of April.
If anything earlier than that, I'm basically F-U-C-K-E-D.

Wing Commanderz 2009 @ MATTA Fair.

Okay, so I spent my whole Sunday at PTWC for the annual MATTA fair (It's a travel fair by the way, if you guys didn't know it yet)
So how can a fair, fishing for good travel deal be so interesting for a person like me thats already getting cheap flight?
Actually, it isn't interesting at all..
BUT!!!
But there was something there that actually interested me.
Few days back The Star Newspapers advertised that FireFly Sdn. Bhd. are organizing a flight simulator competition there, and there are 3 daily prizes and also 1 grand prize to L.A for two!
I mean, FREE!! That's like so much better than cheap.
And yes, I went there at 11am in the morning on sunday to play.
Paid RM10 to play and even got a free FireFly cap..
Guess what?
I crashed during the 1st flight!
LOLZ!!
I guess I wasn't that aqquainted to the yoke as I was always been flying the joystick (Not the joystick in my pants okay?).
Yes, Benjamin Siew is an Airbus man..
And Airbus people flies with a joystick..
But it took me quite fast to get used to the yoke, and I paid another RM10 for another try.
And this time, I made 2 successfuly perfect landings.
The real life captain gave me a smile and passed me for the qualifying round.
And so I came back at 3.45PM and even met my colleague there..
He too made it into the qualifying around..
And after a few round of flying while being judged by a real life FireFly pilot, I made it into the top 5 with my colleague.
After everything was done, I didnt win the 1st place..
So i went back, thinking I just burnt RM20 for two lousy FireFly caps.

Wing Commanderz 2009 FireFly Cap.

I came home pretty disappointed.
Imagine loosing to a teen..
Gosh...

But guess what?
My colleague Jerry SMS me today...
And apparently I did won the daily prize to any FireFly destination for two people, for having the best landing!!
ZOMFG!!
Looks like me and my girlfriend are going for a holiday pretty soon! =p

Change I Need..

**Quote of the Day**
I don't dream at night, I dream all day; I dream for a living. (By Steven Spielberg)

Before I get into explaining why I've not been blogging lately, I would like to express my emotions and tell you the story of what actually made me blog.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

That is what I wanna express..
Now to the reason why I wanna express..

In case for those people who didn't know, the merlion in Sinagapore just struck by lighting and now there's this hole that is on it's (Is merlion a HE or a SHE btw?) head..
And I mean "THE MERLION"..
Not the replicas..
But THE MERLION!!
Yes I know I might have gotten the news late, but to me, I feel it's a very damn funny incident and would like to share with everyone.
Just google "merlion striked by lighting" and you'll get videos and blog post about it.

And now the serious note on why I find it a very funny incident..
The Merlion is suppose to represent Singapore..
It's like the icon for singapore, and anyone who has heard of Singapore should know the merlion.
Malaysia is proud of out twin-jagung, and singapore is proud of their freak for whatever reasons..
And getting strike by lighting to me is a sign that when a country is struggling in an economic downturn, the shittiest problem with the most remote chances can also happen..
It's a sign that no matter how safe I think I was before, I can be hit by anything.

I want to take up risk..
I want to take up chances..
And in that way, I know if I fail, the reason will be on me..
And not some crappy god given reason.

Change is what I need..
And courage is what I'm building up now..
I want to meet the storm, and not hide under the roof..

Okay, on some serious note, thank god that the merlion took the dive and not some unlucky tourist..

You tell me...

To prove my point, can anyone off hand, tell me what is the difference between an "Act" and "Regulation"?

WAIT!!!
No cheating by looking into wikipedia or google for a matter of that fact...

None of you know right?
I thought so..

Anyway, I just found out something today..
Domo-kun actually resembles so much of my life I had last year, and hopefully, many more years to come..

**Gossip of the Day**
I'm getting bored with this section as most of the time, the reason why I suddenly loose interest in typing a new post is because of this section.. My brain ain't functioning right like last time to think of interesting line of commentary to post.. D'uh..

Hi everybody..
It's been quite awhile since I've last blogged..
And I think I'm going to really slow down on blogging as live has been really taxing on me lately with all the external activities that is going on..
I once remembered my aunty telling my mum that people of her generations only need to worry about the present and their after life..
But the people on our generation need to worry about 3 lives..

Present life
After life
Cyber life

So those aunty or ah poh who come up to us and say: "Boy, don't play so much computer, life is just not all about sitting in front of the computer." , I'd say, "Go play your mahjong till you drop dead on the table as I have to worry about my cyber life as it's more important than my current one.."

Anyway, back to my present life..
I've been busy with loads of stuff..
Exams, relationship, friends, work, holidays...
Life has been great to me, but I sense there's more up hill to climb..

Today I've found out that I've passed all 8 phase of my Airbus 330 type course examinations..
A class of 23 took the exam, and only 11 people passed all 8 phase..
So by all rights, I'm an Airbus 330 expert, but I realize I know NUTS about aircrafts..
Passing exams is one thing, working is another, and I'm pissing scared to know that I'll be establishing by end of this year (hopefully)..

My relationship last year was a great deal of fun..
Things are going so well that you'll start to wonder if there's an obscene ending.
But what the hell...
Even the relationship was like the economy, I'd still be enjoying the ride..
Be it smooth of bumpy..

(As of this moment, I think i can rant a whole lot more cause it's been a really long time I've last posted something, but I decided to cut everything short and end you of your torture of reading my over due post.)

I have to start slapping myself to awareness and prepare myself for the upcoming basic LWTR exams that is coming soon. I'll be my last few but big hurdles in acquiring the title "Engineer".

So for my this year's New Year resolution, is to get established ASAP...
I hate to draw only RM750 a month as an apprentice..
Benci giler...

Anyhow,
I know it's kinda late...
But..

Errr.. It's not exactly 2004, but well, you should get the point..

Happy New Year Everyone!!!

Hugs are drugs and I'm and addict. (From The Simpsons Season 19 episode 3)

Was up at Genting yesterday night..
For dinner and what else?
Casino of course!
Hahaha...

It was such a roller-coaster ride yesterday.
At 1st, bit by bit, in a time span of one and half hour, one hundred ringgit by one hundred ringgit, the money just went away...
By that time, I already deposited RM600 into Genting Casino..
S-I-X-H-O-L-Y-H-U-N-D-R-E-D-R-I-N-G-G-I-T

I was down with my last RM50..
For some reason, I left the Carribean Stud Poker table and head over to the Roulette table.
And with my last RM50, and 7 straights wins, I bagged home RM1050
RM400 of profit!
And it was the 1st time I handled a RM500 chip!!
I had to take a photo of it!

My happy yet tired look.. Haha..

Who says vegetarian cannot eat money?

So..
It got me thinking..
It took me 1 and half hour to spend RM600..
And it took me 15 min to win RM1050..

The conclusion?
Money is harder to spend than to find!
Hahahaha...

16 September 2008 has came and past.. I can't wait for what Anuar Ibrahim has to come up with..

Guess what's my weight now??
77.7KG!!
No joke..
I just weight myself this morning..
And what have I been eating lately?

Yes, every week I have to swallow down a book this thick.. And I have 7 more weeks to go..

Okay, so I lied..
It wasn't the books that caused be to bloat to a staggering 77.7KG in weight..
Blame it on those delicious aircraft food when I was working on KLIA, blame it on my girlfriend who bakes, blame it on everyone else except me.. =P

And so I joined Fitness First..
Hoping i'll not die of heart attack due to high cholesterol while i'm working out..
But apparently, i'll be dying of being lack of Vitamin M.
M for money that is..
Say bye bye to RM155 monthly..
I hate how Malaysian people do business lately..
For every bloody service we people sign up for, they'll always force us to sign into a one year contract. So much for the freedom of choice..
Will the government do something about it already?
Broadband, gym, what else more? Marriage?
D'uh....

Okay..
Perhaps something on what I've been learning lately?
Well..
I was scheduled to learn about the Airbus 330 as i'll be passing out as an Airbus 330 engineer..
And of course, the few good perks for working with MAS is that you'll get to touch and play with multimillion dollar stuffs which most people could only dream off.
What am I talking about?

Crashing an airplane that is!!

Of course.. it's not a real airplane.. but anyway, it does feel damn real..
The fear of dying is present when you try to dive the aircraft down to the ground..
Your muscle do get tense, then you'll have cold sweats all over your body when you're just about to hit the ground. You'll start screaming for no reason, and everyone else in the aircraft simulator screams too..
****CRASH!!!!******
The whole screen just freezes.. Me on the other hand was sitting stunned on the captain seat, grabbing my balls to check if it's still intact.. And yes, they're still are and it feels good.. I'm still alive.. The world never looked so beautiful before this..
Hahaha...

And now some "proper" landing..

Maybe not.. But hey! At least you're still alive..
So don't complain!
And finally..
Thank you for flying with Malaysia Airlines!!

With me longer than any girl has.

I once remembered a girl ask me this question:

Girl : Why guys always treat their car like their wife or perhaps even better than their wife?

Me : That's because when I ask her to move by stepping onto her accelerator paddle, she moves. When I ask her to stop by stepping onto her brake paddle, she stops. She listens to me and never question me, so of course I'll treat her like my wife!

Girl : So what you're trying to say is that girls are slaves for guys la!?!?

Me : You see!! By asking that question, you'll never be a good wife like my car..

Girl : ...........

There's a relation between guys and machine that no girls will ever understand.

Thank god for google and their free hosting..
It's like they've landed their ass from outer space to assist us dumb-wits humans with technology which we sometimes do not deserve..

Anyway...
Moving on with what I did during the weekend..

I went RMC (Royal Military College) for their shooting carnival.
Managed to fire 10 rounds (Total collateral damage incurred on my wallet - RM5) on an M16 only as I was rushing to somewhere else.
The gun powder residue on my eyes and the ringing sound in my ear amplifies my manly ego..
So I guess the 1 hour plus wait was worth it, going home with my testicals bigger than any average Malaysians..
Heh heh heh..

Owh, you know McDonalds use to serve Quarter Pounder burgers?
And when you finish your set of burger, fries and cola, gets up and goes over to basin to wash your hands, then go back to you seat and yet still wonder why lunch isn't served?
Yeah, the portion for McDonalds nowadays are so tiny that not even Mini-Me Benjamin feels remotely filled.
So i went to Wendy's at Sunway Pyramid today with my colleague for lunch and had their 3/4 pounder beef burger..

The feeling??
Image your dad is a photographer and is setting up his tripod while preparing to capture this spectacular view of the grassland.
Then suddenly a herd of cow appeared from no where, like a hindi movie, and runs your dad over dead.
And then you drop by at Wendy's, order a 3/4 pounder beef burger and start taking out on them.
That's blooody sweet revenge I tell ya!

So my take on this burger?
It's so good that it's sinful eating them.
Raking my wallet at a staggering RM18.70 after taxes.
Fried and cola included.
I'm feeling so good now..
Maybe Wendy's should change their motto from "Fast food made fresh" to "Makes the cow moo for help!"

Now let's pray for me that mad cow disease doesn't make a surprise come back..

If fact, I think I was laughing out of joy...
Because in my eyes, I know I wouldn't do what they will do..
I don't think I would have the courage to just dump everything I have now aside and hop onto an uncertain yet breath-taking adventure in life.

**Gossip of the Day**
This coming sunday is mother's day, can anyone give me some suggestion on where to eat? Budget would be below RM300 for 5 people.

Hello people...
Many of you might be wondering why am I here blogging at this hour..
Well, I've been summoned to work at MAS engineering purchasing department.
Apparently they are buying new ATR72 for MASwing to expand their operation in east Malaysia.

ATR-72 (72 means it can carry 72 passanger!)

So, basically I'll be here working for this whole week and today is the last day.
The job is rather simple and boring.
All I do whole day is typing part numbers, price and quantity to order for the spare parts that MAS need to stock up.
Learnt a few things about aviation business..
Did you know buying parts from vendor is actually cheaper than buying from manufacturer?

Okay, got to go back to work..
By the way, did I mentioned I managed to save MAS USD$820 by cancelling an order and purchasing it from another cheaper vendor?
=P

This is nuts! MAS is giving away free tickets to the public. I'm a staff of MAS and I don't even get them at that rate! Click HERE to read more.

It's been a long time I've not written something to express myself.
I've been reading this blog "Teenage Lolita" for a few weeks by now.

And boy I say, it's the most expressive type of writing I've ever came across in the blogging scene.
Sure, Pink Pau a.k.a Su Ann is good with her bombastic words and poetic form of writing, but that doesn't mean she could beat this girl in self expression. Don't get me wrong, both of them are good at writing and expressing their thoughts, but a different one. And the reason why I like her ---- she's rude and has one hell of an attitude.

Teenage Lolita is authored by a now-20-year-old Singaporean girl who lives like any normal rich Singaporean girl. Only that she lives with a dark secret------Being in the prostitution business since she was 16.
The love for money, the lust for expensive merchandise and the lucrative earning she gets from being a part time prostitute to fund all her lavish lifestyle.

Her blog is kinda inspiring. Reason is because she lives with it, and doesn't regret of what she have done. Truely truely inspiring....

Then Malacca.
Then roam around Negeri Sembilan.
Then Malacca again.

Had one hell of an experience in Lundu.
Ate things I've never expected to be eaten by human.

Fasten Your Seat Belts : The Air Asia, Badawi, Singapore, Kamaludin,
Tg Adnan, Kalimullah Story

Posted by Raja Petra
Wednesday, 27 February 2008

By Little Bird
Kawan-kawan, please fasten your seat belts now. I thought that I knew
something about what is really going on in the administration of
Abdullah Badawi. Today I found out I have not even scratched the
surface. The following is panas-panas news. You may want to hit the
ejection button (not yours but theirs) after reading this.

Firstly, the shareholders and/or stakeholders of Air Asia (directly,
indirectly, through proxies, etc.) include Kamaluddin bin Abdullah
Badawi, Kalimullah Maseerul Hassan (also into Tune Hotels), Khairy
Jamaluddin, Tony Fernandez, etc.

We all know the story of Air Asia. Well, we all thought it was a rags
to riches story. It is actually a story about riches. The rags part is
actually very hazy. When MAS entered into a phase of 'restructuring'
about 3 years ago, Air Asia, through Tony Fernandez, struck fast and
furious.

Before we go further, you may want to ask why did MAS have to suffer
yet another 'restructuring'? That is a story by itself for another day
but just bear in mind that Badawi's brother, Ibrahim, is the owner of
the catering company (Skychef?) that used to supply mineral water at
RM35 a case to MAS.

With that kind of pricing, surely MAS would need 'restructuring'.
Anyway, Air Asia stepped in and pushed the Govt. for a
'rationalisation' of the domestic air routes in Malaysia. Air Asia
asked to be given MAS' Sabah and Sarawak routes. MAS could keep flying
in Semenanjung, they said. Despite objections by MAS, Air Asia was
granted its wish.

But the wish did not just happen. Zaki, a fourth floor boy at the PM's
office, helped Air Asia make its wish come true.

Once MAS lost its Sabah and Sarawak routes to Air Asia, there was a
staff redundancy. So MAS had to organise a VSS. MAS demanded that
since Air Asia was taking over their Sabah and Sarawak routes it would
make some of their staff redundant so Air Asia should pay MAS some
compensation.

Everyone (MAS, Govt and even Air Asia) agreed that compensation was
payable to MAS. But Air Asia would not pay anything. Finally, the Govt
(that means you and me lah, Mr Taxpayer) paid the compensation to MAS,
which MAS promptly used in one of the most expensive VSS payments in
our history.

If your blood is starting to boil, stop reading and better cool off
because it does not get better.

Then, within one year, Air Asia realised that the Sabah and Sarawak
routes were not profitable. They never were. MAS was performing
national service in Sabah and Sarawak. Flying chickens and goats is
not a money-making venture.
No problem. Air Asia made another wish. They told the Govt, we have
to return these air routes back to MAS. Again MAS objected. Again
overruled. Not relevant.

Then came the handing over ceremony of the air routes and the
airplanes. When they took over the Sabah/Sarawak routes, Air Asia had
'acquired' seven airplanes from MAS in perfect working condition. (MAS
does have one of the best safety records in the world.)

However, when Air Asia 'returned' the planes to MAS, only one was left
in working condition. The other six planes were grounded, not fit for
flying and could not fly.

In actual fact, Air Asia was cannibalising parts from the six planes
to keep the seventh one flying. Again MAS objected. Again overruled.
Not relevant. It eventually cost MAS in excess of RM50 million to make
the planes flyable again. This was a direct subsidy to 'rags to
riches' Air Asia's profits.

Then Air Asia started eyeing the lucrative KL-Singapore routes.
Tighten your seat belts. This one will really jolt. But they went
about it the roundabout way. They said they wanted to go
international. They did (some) but international routes are tough. No
Zaki, Badawi, Khairy, Kalimullah or Kamaluddin to make your wishes
come true.

But the KL-Singapore sector was generating RM40 million in PROFITS to
MAS. This was the plum in the pudding. Air Asia wanted it badly.

So they made another wish. It came true. This is how they did it. Air
Asia's bid to break into the KL-Singapore sector was first discussed
in Cabinet when Badawi was on holiday overseas. Najib chaired the
meeting and Air Asia's application was rejected.

The application was rejected for two main reasons:

i. By 2009 the whole of ASEAN becomes open sky anyway. ASEAN airlines
can fly to all ASEAN capitals without restrictions. So why open up
KL-Singapore in double quick time?

ii. If budget flights are allowed between KL-Singapore, KLIA will die
an unnatural death. KLIA will become a feeder airport for Singapore's
Changi. People will fly from KL to Singapore and then fly off from
Singapore to the rest of the world. MAS will then die a natural death.
So the request was declined.

Then Badawi came back from his travels and asked Tengku Adnan the
Minister of Tourism to prepare a paper on tourism, linking MAS, Air
Asia, SIA, etc., to tourist arrivals. At the next Cabinet meeting
chaired by Badawi, he asked Tengku Adnan to present the 'Cabinet
paper'.

Insiders say that the paper was an 'out of Agenda' item - meaning it
surprised everyone, but the "dunggus" approved it nonetheless. Air
Asia got its wish again. Tengku Adnan also secured his Putrajaya seat.

Now here is the killer. Soon after Air Asia started flying the
KL-Singapore sector, they started giving away 300,000 free tickets, 5
sen tickets and all the other gimmicks. Singapore is believed to be
subsidising Air Asia for all these expensive gimmicks.

For SIA, losing RM40 million (S$17 million) profit from the
KL-Singapore sector is chicken feed. Air Asia is feeding thousands of
transit passengers from KL to Changi . Air Asia is providing RM19 bus
rides from KL to KLIA. From KLIA, passengers fly almost free to
Changi. >From Changi the passengers can connect to the world.

Now, Air Asia is making another wish - they want to fly direct from
Kuching, KK, Penang, Alor Setar, Kota Bharu, etc., to Changi. They
will earn even more 'subsidies' from Singapore. KLIA will drop dead
later, MAS will die first.

This is how we go from 'rags to riches'. And we all thought Tony
Fernandez was such a great guy too. The shareholders and/or
stakeholders of Air Asia (directly, indirectly, through proxies, etc.)
include Kamaluddin bin Abdullah Badawi, Kalimullah Maseerul Hassan
(also into Tune Hotels), Khairy Jamaluddin, Tony Fernandez, etc.

Yes, we believe in open skies, competition and all that. But friends,
fellow Malaysians, this is the PM, his son, his S-I-L and his cronies
lah. How can they sell out their own country? But this is what they
are doing.

Kawan-kawan, come March 8th, 2008 you have an opportunity to hit the
button for the ejecion seat. Hit the ejection button and send these
people out into oblivion. Don't give them any parachutes either.

**Quote of the Day**
In god we trust, others we check. (From AGM of MAS's E&M Department)

Okay okay..
I admit it.
I've been really really lazy lately at updating my blog.
I have to many reasons to give but it would just meant as an excuse to everyone of my blog reader.
So I shall no longer keep everyone waiting.

The Gang (L to R: Meng Cheng, Me, Ah Jing, Uncle, Kit Zai, Aunty, Ah Jie, Ah Kin, Ah Zhi, Yun Feng, Ah Zhu, Andrew's GF, Andrew.)

The journey started off on a Wendesday night (19/04/2008) where I went over to Meng Cheng's house in USJ and went down to her Sepang home and put up a night there.

The next morning I woke up and met her father for the 1st time and was greeted with "Welcome Aboard".
Hahaha.. The feeling is really funny when he greeted me that way.
Oh, for those who doesn't know, her dad is a captain for MAS A330.

So we left Sepang at 10am after all the packing on a Toyota Unser. The 1st destination was to head down to Mersing. But meantime, we stopped by at Yong Peng to have lunch. By the time we reach Mersing, It was already 4 something. And we were rounding around looking for hotel. to put up a night there. And we decided on this Chalet in Air Papan (Just the outskirt of Mersing Town).

And boy, I have to say this. I think I enjoyed my stay at the chalet at Air Papan. The view there is spectacular!

Early in the morning.

Sea view.

Too bad there wasn't any sun rise.

I love this shot. Prior to this, we were sitting on the tree and she was singing to me. So damn romantic i tell ya! =P

Busy body fisherman.

Enjoying the sunrise views.

Pretending to be cool. Hehe..

Okay, so that's about my stay at Mersing.
On Thursday (20/04/2008) morning, we packed up early in the morning and left to the port and boarded the ferry.

Me and MC inside the ferry.

And I must tell you.
Tioman Island is quite far away from the Penisular.
It took us around 1 and a half hour to reach the island.
And when we were there, everything was so worth it.

Let me tour you around the view of Tioman Island.
There we stay for the next 3 days.
The inn we stayed is called Tioman Genting Happy Inn.

Shot 1. (Early Morning)

Shot 2. (Early Morning)

Shot 3 (The Jetty).

Shot 4 (Morning).

The clear water. The depth is roughly 1 meter deep and it's still crystal clear.

The left side view from Genting Happy Inn's Restaurant.

The right side view from Genting Happy Inn's Restaurant.

The beautifully eroded beach sands.

Now it's time to talk about the sea.
Well, basically the best underwater snorkeling isnt's at Tioman Island itself.
It's the small small mini island around Tioman.
There's where all the beautiful corals and sea creatures are.

Basically, we have to sit the ferry and jump off from the boat to snorkel.

.
Cool sea breeze. (Alvin James, eyes on me please.)

Me and MC.

Me and Kit Zai.

Yun Feng and Ah Zhu.

Ah Kin and Ah Jie. They're engaged and getting married next year.

Me and Taman Laut Pulau Tioman Jetty.

We can feed bread to the fish and see them peck it right off out hands.

One of the most beautiful diving site. The socks are to prevent stepping on sharp corals and stones.

Done with the sea.
And now some random shots throughout my trip.

Having lunch while sipping on some imaginary iced milo.

Nice skies.

Pretending to get clipped by a crab.

At the duty free island.

Two macho dudes. He's 14 this year.

Me on the beach.

Me and MC on the boat.

High 5!

Having sugar rush!

I love this shot.

This photo looks naughty. =P

Got to go now.

Why Singaporeans Have 36 Hours In a Day..

2008-04-01T21:43:00.003+08:00

**Gossip of the Day**
Apparently a warrant of arrest was issued against me when I went and paid my road offense fine today. Lucky for me the police didn't come to my door step and handcuff me.

I wished we had 36 hours in a day.
And I think Singaporean actually have 36 hours in a day.

My theory is that, the escalators and elevator there in Singapore actually travels twice as fast as compared to the ones in Malaysia.
The toilet there are equip with automatic flush, thus saving 2 to 3 seconds everytime they go to toilet taking a piss or a dump.
The people there talk twice as fast as compared to Malaysian pasar malam sales person.
And if they work 12 hours a day, they could achieve what Malaysians can do within 24 hour.
And plus 12 hours of relax time and sleeping time, that would mean Singaporeans actually have 36 hours a day.

Anyway, I was at Asia Cafe having my lunch when I spotted this.

Long live Chua Soi Lek! =P

I was at Kuala Pilah last Sunday with Meng Cheng and her mum at a Holly Centre which grows agricultural stuff to maintain their place.
And it was fun working under the hot fun..
Reminds me of when I was a kid digging soil at my grandma's house.
Ah~~ The memories~~ Grandma, are you listening me?

I've always been wondering, how is life like in front of the camera.
Wonder if how people could actually not make mistakes.
Or was it good camera trick that actually concealed their mistakes?
Maybe it's because we aren't paying enough attention to the television?

I think I have the answer.
And the answer is..
No one is perfect and sometime, we do screw up big time.

I was actually anticipating that she would puke for the second time.

5 Step "LALA" Pose..

2008-03-04T18:23:00.005+08:00

**Gossip of the Day**
Airline business is a stupid business. Why? Maintaining a 3rd party generates 20 million Ringgit in revenue for the company. But a mistake made on both engines would cost the company 30-40 million Ringgit in compensation. Way a go MAS!

Ever seen one of these photos before?

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

I bet you've seen them before.
They're called the 5 step "LALA" pose.

That's the one thing good about a girl.
No matter what silly stuff you do in front of the camera, all the guys will call you cute.
No one would crucify you and stone you to death.
No one would call you a witch and then boil you for soup.

Can you imagine us guys doing all those cute pose?
All our manly ego would just evaporate into the thin air.
You girls might as well just castrate us and call us a pussy.

Try having a look at the photos below and you'll understand what I mean.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

I swear to god, that's isn't me in the photo.
Photoshop nowadays can really do wonders.
Whoever photoshop me into those photos are real geniuses!
=P

But anyhow..
Enough is enough I say!
The day guys can do the 5 step "LALA" pose and still keep your manly ego with you is here!
I will teach you how to do them without people calling you a pussy.
In fact, they might even call you the most egoist bastard ever and still come back to your side at the end of the day.
So here it goes..

One. The "silent please" pose.
Put on that serious eyes and lips and stare at her, I bet girl would push you down and start french kissing you if you do this pose right.

Two. The "look me in the eyes" pose.
If she doesn't lay, you'll lay it down for her to show that you mean business with her.

Three. The "I swear" pose.
"I SWEAR I'M GOOD IN BED". Tell her that and she'll let you in.

Four. The "yes madam" pose.
After you're done with her, and she ask if she's good at it, do this pose and say "YES MADAM!"

Five. The "talk to the hand" pose.
Now you get up, dress up, zip up and leave. When she tells you not to leave and that she might be pregnant with your child, show her this pose and tell her "TALK TO THE HAND". And then casually walk away.

Guys, I bet no girls would ever call you a pussy again.
EVER!

If you were a guy in formal.
And you are in an elevator with a stewardess who is off duty.
She's on the side with all the controls and buttons.
Both of you reached ground floor and are about to go out of the elevator.
Now my question is, should you be a gentleman and wait for the lady to go out 1st, or do you leave when she ask you to as it's natural coming from her work nature.
What would you do?

Today, I've learned a new word.
"Castrated".

In the dictionary, it says..
"Deprived of sexual capacity or sexual attributes."
Of which, it's roughly translated into my own language..
"To get your balls chopped off."
If you still don't get it, I'll have to just leave it up to your imagination.

Oh, there's one more thing i want to rant.

Mentholatum Charcoal Wash.

This is by far the best facial wash I've ever used.
And i do mean, THE BEST!
Finally, my face can stay oil free for the whole freaking day with just one wash a day.
It just pawned the hell out of Biore line of product i've used for the past 6 years.
It's actually a male product.
Not sure if it's any good for the fairer sex as girls skin tend to have more oil on their face than guys.
Do let me know if it works fine with girls.

By the way, It's selling for RM12.90 at Jusco for the 100ml bottle.
And for the promotion period, they're giving away another free 50ml bundled together in another bottle.
Good stuff I say.

This must be the funniest news I've ever read. A guy gets accused for raping a girl. 4 years into the trial, only the judges found out that the girl is still a virgin! Poor dude... Click HERE to read more.

My mum is a full time preschool and primary school tuition teacher.
An educator.
And it's a good thing.
Being a teacher means she's able to contribute to the society for a better community in the future.

The fun thing about about having a mum as a tuition teacher, are the stories of funny stuff kids say.
And believe me, they're either pure geniuses or they're just pure innocent.

Today my mum came home and told me that she was running through her student's science exam question.
She stumbled upon a question "What are the basic needs of human?"
And guess what her student answered with a straight face?

MONEY

Wahahahahahaha~~~~
My mum was screaming at them at the top of her lungs.
Damn those kids for making my mum angry.
And damn them again for making me laugh so hard.

(P/s : For those who still thinks the answer is right, don't you think it's time to rewrite science? Hahaha.. By the way, the real answers are "Water, food, air and shelter".. Just incase you've forgot. =P)

It's a must watch parody video about the Edison Chen's sex photo scandal.
I got this video from Kok Kiang, and boy...
I must say, this is one of the funniest stuff I've seen after such a long long time.
I laughed so hard the my left ball started swelled to the size of a bowling ball.
They're so freaking big now that I don't know how to bring it to class tomorrow without getting noticed.
I guess I'm forced to leave it at home.

I just found out that you can actually earn money for videos you made through Metacafe.com. Click HERE to know more and start earning money with your home made videos.

I know you people have heard of this thing called love calculator..
I know it sounds like bullshit and it's really kinky as it's coming from a guy like me.
But seriously, seeing people paying exorbitant amount of money for tarot card reading, palm reading, Chinese medium consultation, won't you start wondering, maybe there's actually some truth in it?

I was actually never a fan of all these bullshit, until I've tried it myself after much convincing from my friend.
She purposely paid this person RM100 at this cafe next to Wingz Cafe, out side of Times Square just to prove me wrong.
And boy, I was damn amazed how accurate the guy can be by just providing him my name, together with your crush or partner's name.
It really left me dumb founded.
And believe it or not, it was only a 15 min session.
There were plenty of people waiting outside and he only does it 2 hours a day.

After I got home, I wasn't convince with all those bullshit, and therefore I went and look up the internet and search for the technique he's using.
And apparently, it's not so much of a bullshit after all.
As there's actually a technique and explanation on how it worked.
The technique is called "Reversed Circumferential Interrogation" devised by a company named called Vinayak Intellisystem.

Click on the link below and try it out.
You'll be amazed how simple this technique is.

Yesterday I had a not so funny day. Was suppose to fetch my friend from Universiti Malaya to JW Marriott KL. And when we reached there, only did she realized that her prom night was suppose to be held at JW Marriott Putrajaya!! Faints..

It's been a long time I've last wrote a lyrics.
And I think that time should come.
So here it goes.

Believe Me

This is, not meant to be broken.
That face, is just so familiar.

It's been too long pretending.
The pieces doesn't fit anymore.
Or does it fit even before?

(Chorus)
Believe me,
I can do this on my own.
Life is relentlessly infunny.
It's just another unwanted surprise.
A twist in faith left us semi-paralysed.

Many 30 minutes have passed.
The windows out of the train is like a high shutter frame.
Eyes flutters.
When journey doesn't matter anymore,
The destination do.
When will this journey ends?

Believe me,
I can do this on my own.
Life is relentlessly infunny.
It's just another unwanted surprise.
A twist in faith left us semi-paralysed.

But i guess..
I guess in the end.
Nothing is as good as you remember.
Wished life has a reset button.
And a channel for a re-entry.

And believe me.
Believe me..

Chap Goh Mei @ Tien Hou Gong

**Gossip of the Day**
MAS is going to announce their 2007 financial report on this coming Monday...

Top of Tien Hou Gong.

I celebrated Chap Goh Mei (Which is the 15th day and also the last day of Chinese New Year celebration.) at Tien Hou Gong.
It's located somewhere next to Kuen Cheng Independent Girls School.
And the day I went.
It's jammed packed with both cars and people.

Me and their pirated Mickey Mouse.

And suffice to say, I had a really really great time there with great company.

Pork, I like.. =P

This girl loves snail I tell you.

Wei, tiger shall not eat tiger, so let me go.

And I must say..
The place there looks better at night with all the lantern...
And to get a few lecture on how to pray from MC, makes me appreciate that place even more.

Lanterns.

And yes, I went there and "Kao Chim"...
And even made wishes too!
Thanks for the wishing candle MC..
=)

This should explain why I had a streak of bad luck since beginning of this year.

Oh, time to open all my red packets!

Valentine's Day Night Out.

2008-02-18T19:04:00.005+08:00

**Gossip of the Day**
I'm finally back in class after a year long working in hangar. And boy, it's so much fun learning about CF6 engine.

I know i know!
It's 18th of Feb today and I'm well aware that I'm 4 days late in posting this post.
But oh well, at least I'm posting them now.

Well, due to the fact that I left my camera in the car while I was having dinner with my date, so please pardon me for the lack of photos of the environment of the restaurant.

This Valentine's Day celebration was a very sudden one.
The day I flew to Kuching for holiday on the 2nd of Feb, I met a very lovely girl by the name of Meng Cheng.
If I were to put her in 8 (auspicious number mahhh~~) words, they would be :
-BUBBLY
-INTELLIGENT
-TALKATIVE
-ATTRACTIVE
-TALL
-CREATIVE
-TALENTED
-MIND-BLOWING

This is girl is so full of surprises I tell you.
I've never met anyone as interesting as her for such a long time.
To top everything, of which left my jaw dropped, was when I found out that I and her actually share the same birthday and the same age.
I mean, what are the chances?
Traveling alone, sat next to me, 1st time talking to a stranger on the plane, same birthday..
So much so, that I think I made her think I'm a stalker or something and perhaps, freaked her out a little.
Well, I guess hitting the jackpot do happen.

So whoosh~~
A week later, I was texting with her one night talking crap and suddenly brought up the topic of Valentine's Day.
Surprised to hear that she don't have a date yet, I spontaneously asked her out for dinner on Valentine's Day with the condition that she has to bake me stuff ( Yeah I know, I'm really really thick face right? =P).
And yes, she agreed to have dinner with me and promised to bake me stuff.
But as soon as she agreed, she dropped a bomb that hit me so hard.
It smacked me in the head so hard, that I could have choked on my saliva while I was laughing so damn hard.
She told me that she's a COW.

No, not literally..
By cow, I mean she's a herbivore.
And by herbivore, I mean she's a vegetarian.

Now I don't know if it's just me..
I actually had a good laugh as I've never been put in a such a situation before.
The night itself, I crawled up from my bed and sent emails to Su Ann a.k.a Pink Pau and KY asking for recommendation for a suitable vegetarian restaurant for a romantic Valentine's Day dinner. Also called a few of my vegetarian colleague and ask them for recommendations.

And thanks to Pink Pau, I manage to find a perfect place to dine at.
It's at The Apartment, KLCC.
If you're all about having nice views, this place would be it.
My dinner started at 8.30pm and we were sitting at the "wardrobe", facing the beautiful fountain and garden.

Their so called "candle light" dinner.

I reckon they could have done a better deco setup and offer special services just for Valentine's Day. Maybe have someone play a song for every table, or a photographer to take a Polaroid photos of their customers. After all, they're charging people an exorbitant amount of money for the meals and I even tipped them RM10 despite being charged with a 10% service charge.

Introducing the appetizer.

Food started with Aubergine Soup..

The soup is quite nice.
But it would be better if it weren't that cold.
And if you think I don't know shit about soup, think again.
I drink more soup than I eat rice.
But I have to give it to them for the taste.
It's something like a tomato soup, but has this small tinge of spiciness that brings the soup alive.
I've never enjoyed a tomato soup as much as this.
Or maybe I shouldn't compare it to tomato, after all, it's called "Aubergine Soup".
=P
Raking my wallet at RM9.90

Keralan Salad with chopsticks. No, the chopsticks are not meant to be eaten.

Oh boy,
I don't know where to start to explain how delicious this dish was.
At RM19.90 for this dish, it was something which really impressed me.
The salad was so orgasmic that I was about to squirm like a little girl while stuffing them into, mouth by mouth.
The taste is more to the sour side which really open one's appetite.
The killer ingredient would definitely be the old coconut filling strips.
It gives the texture of the salad an extra kick on my ass that would definitely leave my ass falling down on the floor begging for more.
If one would like to know how to get their ass kicked without limping their way home, try this salad.

Introducing the main course.

It's called Ragatoni, not pasta.

When I ordered this main course, I didn't know what it was.
Neither the person who was serving me there could explain.
The reason why I ordered, is because it was the only main course on the menu which doesn't serve meat.
It tasted like a typical pasta, but it was heavily sprinkled with cheese on top.
Lucky for me my date eat cheese.
Otherwise, I would be certain that most girls would be repulsive with the smell of the cheese.
And at RM22.50, I would rather think that I've just made a generous donation to cover up their expensive lease in KLCC.

Dark Chocolate.

Complimentary stuff.
At least they've done something right to please me after choking me of RM160 for the dinner.
But then again, with such great company I had that night, the RM160 was all worth it.
Every single cent of it.

And oh, how rude of me..
Let me introduce you to my date, Meng Cheng.

Meng Cheng an I @ The Apartment KLCC.

Also, not forgetting the cupcakes she made me.

One of the best thing I've tasted for a loooooooong time.

Some other photos during that night.

Meng Cheng and me.

All 3 of us share the same birthday. 27th of January.

Gambling session at Yvonne's house.

Finally, I would like to thank:
-Pink Pau again for your suggestions and even entertaining my email at 4am.
-Alvin James for recommendations and suggestion of song for my mix tape.
-Yvonne and the gang, for hosting a gambling session at your home.
-Meng Cheng, for your willingness to have dinner with me.
-Meng Cheng, AGAIN, for your cupcakes.

Had vegetarian dinner at The Apartment in KLCC.
Thank you Su Ann a.k.a Pink Pau for the recommendation.

And guess what I got for my Valentine's Day present from her?

It's even nicely boxed!

Cupcakes with "pearl" that are made out of sugar.

Cupcakes with small small loves.

**Did You Know**
Yee Sang is actually originated from the South East Asia region Chinese community, and not from China.

Hmmm...
It's been sometime I've blogged about my daily job.
Most people tend to avoid ranting and raving about the daily jobs in their blog, but I choose to tell them..
The reason is because I still think my job is really fascinating and that not many people may have the opportunity to see or to experience it themselves.

The Hibiscus design of MAS Boeing 747 fleet.

And sometimes I have to say.
This job can really be quite tiring too.

Well, when no one is looking (I think), and if you happen to spot me sitting there not moving...
Shhhhhh....
Don't tell anyone.

Life Is To Walk Around The Void.

2008-02-11T00:05:00.000+08:00

**Gossip of the Day**
Valentine's Day is coming. For my guy friend. It's a friendly reminder to not to forget this "important day" to avoid getting chopped up by your partner. And for girls, please, don't just sit there on your fat ass and wait for your guy to serve you. So something for him too. =)

It's really weird how things that you do, can affect someone's life in an indirect way.
In such a way that you no longer think of who to care except yourself.

One thing that I realize in life, there tend to be voids that you wish you could fill your curiosity with. The "what ifs" life that we wish ourselves to be living in. Blame it all on me or on god, there are certain things that we are pushing to no end. There's a space which we know that it exist, but we can't seem to explain it in words or emotion feeling. I call that a void in my relationship life.

The person who is happy in a relationship is the one who is actually in that void. Falling endlessly in the pit of love where it's full of excitement, fear, trust, wishes, hopes and an endless journey within that same spot. They're hardly traveling further as they feel comfortable with that spot in their life.

And there's also the other person who sees that particular person fall into that void. You'll panic, and then thrust yourself forward in hopes to grab hold of them. And then only to realize every time you do so, you seem to bounce back. You seem to see that person falling deeper and deeper where you can do nothing about it. You scream so loud, hoping that it would do some good. But no. You feel agitated. You feel insecure. And then you'll be rounding that void non stop. Hence, you'll be also hardly traveling forward and be stuck at that same spot.

So I'm that person.
I'm stuck.
Just like how the centripetal and centrifugal force that's orbiting me around it.
And with all the theory known to mankind, you still wont be able to reverse that force.

A Week of Happiness..

There are a few things I would like to note, which happen during this holiday that actually cheered me up.

While I was taking my flight to Kuching, I got to know a girl who was sitting next to me, and also share the same birthday and year with me! Woohooo~~
I don't know why, but it was just really exciting knowing someone who shares the same birthday and year.
I've had friends who share the same birthday but of different age.
But this time, I've finally found one who is the same age with me..
The feeling was ecstatic...

Pretending to be Spiderman.

I did pretty lot of stupid acting during my Sarawak trip. And it somehow make me feel really happy within.

Nothing!
Had such great time doing stuff together and exchanging views and thoughts about life and stuffs.

Well...
Now that a week of fantasy is over..
I guess everything has to go back to normal.
And get back to what everyone is doing.

A Tribute To Lee Nian Ning.

**Gossip of the Day**
I recommend everyone to read "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger. It's a superbly wonderful fiction love story. Go get them at your local bookstores now and start reader before the movie is out this year.

Last week before I went down Singapore, I wrote a post with a gossip section, expressing my curiosity of wanting to know what will happen to my Friendster and Facebook account if I one day suddenly passed away.

In my post, I wrote..
"You know, I've always wonder what will happen to my friendster and facebook account if one day I suddenly pass away. I have a friend who has been in coma for 3 years now and the photos at his account there are so old and outdated. I feel sad."
And 3 days later, my curiosity was answered. But it did not happen to me.

A Perak girl by the name of Lee Nian Ning, aged 21, passed away on the 25th of January 2008 when she was taking a bus down to Kuala Lumpur to meet her boyfriend.

Please click on the link below and show her your last respect.

So this is what it's like to be dead in the virtual world.
It's really sad..
:'(

I want to do something more than that..
To remember and to be able to find someone in the virtual world even if they're long gone.
It's because everyone deserves to be remembered and to be found even if they're no longer with us.
I promise myself, I will do something..
I will.

Thank You Everybody!!

Indonesia's 2nd president Suharto passed away on my birthday. My condolence reaches out to all of the people in Indonesia and also all of my Indonesian friends.

So my 21st birthday came and went.
And I don't feel so hyped about it like what most people would.
Maybe because I've done all the things that I was not suppose to do before 21, hence loosing the special feeling of being 21.
=P

Sorry to everyone for not throwing a party if you were expecting one.
And of course, special thanks to Chiat Theng, Yoke Fun, Emily Tan, Pei Ling, Peter, and of course Yee Ken for throwing me a birthday dinner at the seafood restaurant I wanted.
Thanks for the tie too!
It's lovely...

Not forgetting my colleagues too..
Mun Seng, Jovie, Cheah, and my dear Yuong Yuong...
Thanks for treating me an awesome Nasi Kandar.
Sinful Indulgence!!
Muahahaha~~

Lastly, thanks to all those people who wished me happy birthday through SMS, Friendster message and testimonials, and MSN.
Thanks very much..

So what's my 21st birthday wish you're asking?
You really want to know?
Alright..
Here it goes...
My 21st birthday wish is...

A super hot chick with a 25 years warranty.

Hahahahahahahaha~~~

P/s : Eh, now only I realized that no one called me to wish me.. Hmmm... Sobs..

I'm 21..

**Quote of the Day**
Our dreams become fake reality. (From "Familiar Landscape" sung by "New Found Glory".)

Yes, I'm 21 today.
And you know what's best about it?
You get to party and drink booze and not pay for it.
Hehehehe..
How cheap stake I am..

Of course, the best thing one really look forward during their birthday is of course their birthday present.
Presents aren't meaningful if it isn't because of the giver.
And the giver are the wonderful family members and friends around me.
So I would like to dedicate this post to the people who had given me present which I hold them dearly.
And therefore, I'll mention 3 gift that I will always cherish them forever.

Let's talk about heart break 1st.
Since I'm still in a emo mood.

My 19th birthday gift.

This gift has to be it.
It's my 1st handmade card from Jin Ro.
I was disappointed that the card was made in a last minute manner, and thus prompting me to an impromptu act of returning it to her, thinking she would make a better one for me.
But ended up getting it back, in two pieces this time.
To the giver, you know...
I was still asleep when you were outside my house.
I would have gone out with you that morning if you were there to wait for me another 10 minutes, despite my resent in going out with you after what you did to me the day before.
I was washing up already!
The irony of the situation struck me silly.
Eternal bliss can be missed by just 10 minutes and it's a real pity.

Next up, is a gift from a friend of mine named Sen Cai.

My 18th birthday gift.

This is one gift that had such great impression on me due to the creativity of it.
It's a box with just bookmarkers, scented candle and a small note in it.
I like to think it as a box of many wishes due the fact that every bookmarker has different type of wishes written on it.
This is by far the best birthday gift I've ever received, and no expensive gift or lavish dinner could ever make me forget how special this gift means to me.

Lastly..
This gift is a MUST mention!
It was given to me by Siow Ling.

My 16th Birthday gift.

The card above looks like a normal handmade card right?
So why is it so special?
I'll tell you why.
You see, I only came into SMK Maxwell during the middle of Form 4.
Prior to that, I was studying in chinese private school and literally hated their education in mandarin. (That's because I suck big time in Mandarin Language.)
When I first join SMK Maxwell, I felt like a freak.
I couldn't join any community there.
I couldn't speak Malay well and wasn't using polite words like calling teachers "kamu" instead of "Cikgu".
What about the Chinese community?
Well, little did I know I had to speak Cantonese because not all of my Chinese classmates knew mandarin.
I suck in Mandarin and what more about cantonese?
I was having such a hard time communicating, but it didn't took me long to fit in.
As a all boys school, we tend to know out seniors in Form 6 and my gang knows this particular group of girls which they are close with.
I was still new there, and I only know them by reputations and not personally.
So half year of Form 4 passed, came Form 5.

It was my birthday and my classmate Robin came to me and told me..
"Ah Ben... Later after school don't go back so quick.. Siow Ling got you a present."

And I was like..
"Siow Ling who? How she know it's my birthday is today? I've not even spoken to her before and I'm not really sure who she even is."

As funny as the situation can be, she came and handed the present to me personally..
And I was thinking inside my head...
"Ohhhh!! So this is Siow Ling..."

She passed me the gift and I went home ecstatically.
Cause I've never received a handmade card before.
Quickly I got home and open it..

Ta-da!!

It says "To Wan Seong"....
I was like... Hmmm...
"Who's Wan Seong ah? Oh ya, that's my name wrongly spelled with an E instead of an I."

And I looked further..
"U're 17!!!"
And again I went..
"Eh, what year is it ah? 2003 marr.. I'm born in 1987 and I'm only 16 lahh...."

After that, I kept on laughing non stop.
Cause this girl who hardly knows who I am, or how to spell my name or even know my age, actually handmade a birthday card for me.
It has to be the best thing that ever happen to me in my birthday.

So thanks to all my friend who actually wished me Happy Birthday.
And sorry for not being able to throw an awesome party due to financial constrains.
And lastly, happy birthday to myself.
=)

P/s : I skipped a year in primary school, that's why people always think I'm a year older. And yes, guys do actually keep their gifts and card despite most girls think we don't cherish them.

Singapore Again, In a Nut Shell..

**Gossip of the Day**
My 21st birthday is on this coming Sunday, but I'm not celebrating nor be throwing any party.

I'm back in Malaysia.. Again..
And I was almost late for my 12pm bus yesterday.
The bus was already rolling it's way out and so lucky by chance, I manage to run towards the bus and stop it.

When I was in Singapore, I....

Was living in a HDB flat in Choa Chu Kang.

Went and did what I came there to do.

Went Bukit Batok wanted to open a UOB bank account, but their policy forbids me to open one. without and introducer with a current account of at least 6 months.

Went Changi Airport Terminal 3 and even saw the almighty Airbus 380. I will dedicate a whole post on Changi Airport during the weekend.

Went to NTU.

Wanted to go Geylang to ~~find china girls~~ have frog porridge but ended up too late and headed back to CCK to sleep.

The next morning I rushed to the bus stop and went back KL with all the things done, and a happy man I was.

You know, I've always wonder what will happen to my friendster and facebook account if one day I suddenly pass away. I have a friend who has been in coma for 3 years now and the photos at his account there are so old and outdated. I feel sad.

In another 7 more hours, I'll be hoping onto a Transnational bus and heading down south to Singapore for a 2 days (23rd to 24th).
Will be staying there for 1 night at god knows where, as The Hive Backpakers at Serangoon Road there is fully booked.

Any Singaporean want to offer me a stay?
I'll promise I will be nice and I won't bite.
=P

Any nice food to recommend me?
Leave me some comments ya.
It's still not too late.

Updated: I'll be staying in Choa Chu Kang.. w00t!!

Life is like an open book exam. The answers are there but you don't have enough time to find for them. (From my wandering thoughts.)

Yes, I had PMS.
And no, not the PMS that girls have every month, you dirty minded buggers.
And so, MAS decides to call it PMS, so PMS it shall be called here from now on.

Performance Management System a.k.a PMS.

They say it's for bonus..
And I don't think it's a very accurate way to measure a person's job performance.
But oh well...
As long as the money will be in every month..

And owh..
Seen my new uniform already?

Not much of a difference except they removed the huge ass MAS logo on the left shoulder and put them in front. And the collar now is in light blue. Sleeve remains dark blue to indicate that we are still apprentices. And and and.... It's a shirt now, no longer a jacket. Meaning I've to tuck them in.
Ish...

Along Trilogy Last Episode.

2008-01-19T19:12:00.000+08:00

**Quote of the Day**
I think I've found a perfect way, to grow old. (From the lyrics of "Both Ways" by "Quite Drive".)

Just in case you've missed out on the 1st two episode of my trilogy with Alongs and business turbulence, click HERE for the 1st episode and HERE AGAIN for the 2nd episode.

Today I went Low Yat Plaza to meet my programmer.
Initially, it was scheduled to be at Mid Valley and at around 2.00pm just not, he sms-ed me and told me he would like to meet up at Low Yat Coffee Bean.
And since today is a half day, I can rush over to my client's office to see if they have issued my cheque or not.
And so I went.

And so when I reached Low Yat Plaza there at 4pm, immediately I dashed to the office.
When I peep into the office, there were no one there.
So I decided to press the bell and give it a try, to see if anyone is there.
And 10 seconds later, someone came to the door.

That's when my heart started to race.
It went..
dub-dub.... dub-dub... dub-dub... dub-dub..
I could hear the loud beat-box lying under my chest.

And when she took out the file, and start flicking the cheque one by one.
My heart raced even faster.
I could feel the ringing sound in my ear and my earlobe felt hot.
Piece by piece, she flicked and she was already half way through.
At this moment I felt numb all over.
She continued...
And then stop...
It was at the end of the file.
=(

My heart stopped.
The numbness was gone.
She looked and me, and I looked at her.
I didnt feel disappointed for some reasons...
And the 1st thing that came out from my mouth was....
WAS............

"FIND AGAIN.."

And so she did...
And the whole dub-dub process repeated.
My fingers were pinching the flesh in between my eyes.
And when I look back at her.
She pulled something out from the file.

Golden Hornet Enterprise. Muahahahaha~~

RM4660!!
Exactly the amout I charged!!
Muahahaha~~
I quickly signed off for the cheque and left the office feeling like that..

How happy? I'm Yuong-Yuong happy!!

And now I'm relieved..
No more nightmare of ALONG coming to chop my fingers away.

Even After..

**Did You Know**
Humans and dolphins are the only two animals in the world that have sex for pleasure.

Even after break up, I've never once ignored you.
Even after break up, I've never once shut you off from my life.
Even after break up, I've never once scold you for breaking up with me.
Even after break up, I've never once blame you for breaking up with me.
Even after break up, I've never once given up on you.
Even after break up, I've never once talked bad about you.
Even after break up, I've never once forget about you.

Even after break up, I've always cared about you.
Even after break up, I've always try to communicate with you.
Even after break up, I've always be there for you.
Even after break up, I've always want the best for you.
Even after break up, I've always want to protect you.
Even after break up, I've always wonder how you are you doing there.
Even after break up, I've always wonder if you will think of me.

You might blame me for lying to you.
That's because I have no heart to break your heart any further and couldn't find the right time to tell you about it.

You might think I'm stalking you.
That's because I care about your safety and your thoughts.

You might want to let go of your past.
But is that because you are trying to run away from it, or are you giving yourself a chance?

You might think I'm not worth your time.
But have you asked me why are you worth my time?

Reasons and excuses.
How many do you want to give before you run out of it?
I'll always be here when you need me.
Promised.

Time To Try To Look Forward..

2008-01-14T20:57:00.000+08:00

**Gossip of the Day**
Anyone feeling the Chinese New Year mood yet? Cause I'm feeling them already.

You know, for the past few days, things are like a little mixed.
There are times where I feel very down and sulk real bad.
Then there are times where people just pop out of no where and try their very best to make you happy.
And guess what, you guys did a great job at making me happy.
At least for that moment.

Cut Here.

Sure, there are times where I wonder why life can suck so bad for me.
Why she choose him over me.
Why she isn't talking to me.
Why do I have to give the impression to be whatever I'm not.

I remember wondering myself, will I get something from her when she's back from Hong Kong and China.
And I accidentally told someone what I was wondering.
And the response I got was, "That's good, keep on hoping even though it might not come true."
I've always been a person who never gives up on hope.
And to hear that from a peer really boost me up.
Well, obviously I was living on dry hope, and didn't get anything from her.

These few days have been sad sad sad sad sad sad sad..
Perhaps throw in a few happy moments to justify.
Nevertheless, I'll try to continue with my life, and look forward for my future.
Hope that she'll step into my future.
That's all that I can do for now.

And of course, hope that she doesn't just forget about me.

And wait for that one day........

And we shall write out story together again, okay?

Pulling a Bluff..

2008-01-12T17:24:00.000+08:00

**Quote of the Day**
Happiness is... When you manage to bluff your own. (From my wandering thoughts.)

I don't believe there's anyone in this world has never lied in their life.
You know very well that you've lied to your parents before about where you went with your partner when you came home late.
You know you've lied to your partner before to avoid he/she to be angry with you over small reasons.
You know you've even lied to yourself that you are happier being single when clearly you were hoping otherwise.

So, it's very normal for a person to pull a bluff on someone.
Sometimes we accept those lies.
Sometimes we tell them to keep our loved ones happy.
Sometimes we lie without blinking when we are facing a live or death situation.

Well, I, like anyone else, lie too.
In order to survive in this world, you have to lie in order to relief yourself from being checkmate.
There's a saying "It's better you to die, rather than me dying for you."
I know that's selfish, but that's just pure animal instinct. Not necessary a human instinct.

So, you guys should know that I own ALONG money by now.
Me, being an small entrepreneur, have to survive.
So, obviously, I have to pull a bluff.
I called up my customer yesterday.
What I did was to confirm with him the source of the supplier.
Obviously I know, the source is real, but that doesn't mean my supplier is confident about it as he has never taken stock from them before.
So I told my customer that I called up my supplier and fucked them upside down, and can't even get it at that price.
On top of that, I managed to convince him that the price i've given him is the cheapest price (This isn't a lie) in Low Yat, and that I've dealt business with him for 2 years without delay in order.
And at this moment, my lied paid off as I felt he hesitated about his new source at a much cheaper price.
He told me he'll call back, but he didn't.
Which is a good news for me as he is not uncertain, and most probably he'll stick with me for another quite sometime.
So, now I managed to live by a day and hopefully I may pull myself alive from a almost soon to be dead business.

Don't fear.
Live your life like you know how to run it perfect, even at times you might be uncertain.
People trust you not because of what you know, but how you make them trust you, even if it involves lies.
And when you get their trust, remember never to trade it for anything else.
Like I said previously, in business, above money, relationship matters most.

**Gossip of the Day**
I heard from the internet blogosphere that AirAsia is flying Malaysia to Singapore air route for only RM109, 1 way. There's goes my bonus since MAS lost one of their monopoly air route.

The title in mandarin roughly means "I've hit a dead end".
This 2008 bad luck couldn't get any worse than this.
Really.

I mean seriously, if ever there is such thing as karma, I would be the last 1 to believe in it.
Click HERE to read about a post I've posted back in June 2007 regarding about my believes in karma.

So today I shall give you another example on why the word and theory of "karma" doesn't really exist.
So maybe some people know I own a small trading business dealing with memory card modules.
In doing business, I always do believe in 2 things.
One of them of course is MONEY.
And another, which is even more important than money...
Yes, I did say it's much more important than money, is BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP.

You can loose a few hundred dollars or a few thousand dollars in a deal which involved in bad timing.
But one cannot afford to harm your business relationship with your customer or suppliers, as you don't know when you need their help.
Except maybe some wankers you might meet once in awhile which make your business deal a living hell by delaying payment.
I've met people like that, one of them is a photo shop in KL plaza.
I'll tell you this story some other time.

Now back to the "karma" topic.
So this week's Monday, I got a call from one of my biggest customer, which is the biggest IT retailer in Low Yat Plaza and possibly in Malaysia.
I've been dealing business with them for almost 2 years.
And this time, I got a big order this time which guarantee a handsome profit.
Now the bad news is...
I was short of RM3800.
So i thought, since I'm short of RM3800, and have to deliver the stock on time, I couldn't care much about the extra profit of RM300 i could earn from there.
So I called up one of my friend for help.
I told him that since he's my friend, I'm letting him profit that RM300 if he is willing to borrow me RM3800 for 2 weeks.
Of course, he agreed, seeing it's such a good deal.

Right after that, I place my order and even manage to negotiate the price and lower another RM50.
Which means, I still get to profit RM50.
And so, I thought my problem was settled.

And that's when I got the worst news ever just 4 hours ago.
A COMPANY INTERCEPTED AND OFFERED MY CUSTOMER A WAY LOWER PRICE THAN WHAT MY SUPPLIER CAN EVEN OFFER!!!
They must have a bloody factory in CHINA manufacturing million of them to get at that price!
And that poses two checkmate for me.
One, they officially put me out of business as they managed to find their way to all my big customers.
Two, the initial thought of giving my friend to earn that RM300 has turn out harmful, as now i not only have to pay up the principle sum, I need to give him an extra RM300 which i didn't earn since I've been intercepted.
Now who dares to say that if one do good, will be repaid good?

So what's the big deal you might say?
Well, that's because I didn't mention to you that my friend is a ALONG.
=(

Now for the 1st time in 3 years.
I got no choice but to turn to my parents to seek for financial help.

Lesson learn so far:
No matter how good contacts, or how good financial plans you have.. Just like the game of monopoly, you'll never know which side of the dice it'll turn up. And that's 1 factor that I can't control and has brought my downfall.

The Cherry Tree Shall Blossom Again.

Sung by Alvin Geoffery James.
Composed by Alvin Geoffery James.
Lyics by Benjamin Siew Wan Siong

Here are the lyrics.

Looking around my surrounding.
People are smiling and laughing.
But I'm drowning.
The song pieces keep on repeating.

Staring at my own reflection on the yellow table.
Pretending it's the water's ripple.
Knowing that love is a riddle.
Makes my head tremble.

Now I'm stuck for the moment.
And I can't never return.
The feeling I've yearn.
Pushes me to learn.
That life is waiting for my turn.

The girl of my life, so where are you now?
The world have ceased.
Ceased to revolve.
So you can hold me hand in hand.
The memory lane we shall walk together.

Now I'm stuck for the moment.
And I can never return.
The feeling that I've yearn.
Pushes me to learn.
That life is waiting for my turn.

Now I'm stuck for the moment.
And I can never return.
The feeling that I've yearn.
Pushes me to learn.
That life is waiting for my turn.

So where are you now?
(Where are you now?)
So where are you now?

So where are you now?
(Where are you now?)
So where are you now?

And I'm stuck for the moment.
And I can never return....

I love you Mo Jin Ro.
And I'll forever will.
Hope you will never forget me.

I lie, I cheat, I inflict, I resent.. I'm only evil when I'm in love. (From my wandering thoughts.)

I'm devastated now.
My mouth taste like burnt grass in it.
There's this ringing sound in my ear which I can only hear it myself.
I can feel my heart is palpitating at a very fast pace causing my dizziness now.
My throat is dry. Not the ordinary type of dryness. Felt like someone guzzled down a pint full of kerosene into my throat. Half digested, half seeped into my lung.
I smell nothing but compulsive revenge coming out from myself, but ended the next second when logic kicks in.
All I see is a distorted view of myself smiling on a reflective surface, which I know my cheeks are pulling downwards.
My hair now seem to be whiter but not wiser.
I wonder if I'll wake up in the morning, fingers running all over my bed to look for my eye balls, only to realize it's my eyelids that are swollen due to over crying.
Crying is a man's taboo.
And I'm feeling less than half a man now.

I guess that is how it feels like to be in love.

Sorry guys, I know it's Wednesday today.
So here I am to do my dirty Monday laundry.
Prepare for some overdue Monday videos.

This week's theme is "Eccentric is Brilliant Creativity."
If you are a fan or Donald Trump's series production "The Apprentice", very so frequent he'll make the remark telling everyone to "think out of the box".
Well, from my point of view, that's a very vague statement to make.
Everyone can think out of the box if there have all the resources in the world.
Resources as in huge cash flow, good business relationship, widely known franchise, and etc.

The really good people are those people who able to conjure magic with their limited resources.
Those who are within the box's limit.
Anyone who can think within the box will be able to know how to run effective resource management.

The year is 2008.
Alien race has invaded planet earth.
With their high tech power concentrated laser boom guns on their three legged Striders, standing at 60 foot tall, blasted the entire surface of the earth and evaporated every living organism.
They were here for one mission and one purpose.
To suck out the remaining fuel and destroy planet Earth to make way for their upcoming construction of super galactic highway.

Well, of course that is not going happen anytime soon.
People around the world are celebrating the year 2008.
China is even having a bigger smile to on their people's face as economic for them is booming.
Politicians in Malaysia are starting to piss in their pants as election year is coming.
With the power of internet and the hardworking bloggers are injecting all the lethal poison into everyone's mind to vote for any party except Barisan National.

So perhaps the year 2008 is not that much of a celebration after all.
It'll be another step closer to political and economic war where people like us stand to loose.
And like it or not, we're in this war zone.

Welcome everyone, to the beginning of all sufferings.

Credit Card Owner Of Malaysia!!

**Quote of the Day**
Everyone will want you to be normal except for your own. (From my wandering thoughts.)

I got this article off The Star Online.
I got to share it with everybody before they fall prey to banks.
Read up, and you'll score all A1 for your STPM.
=P

Most unaware of RM250 limited liability

CARDHOLDERS need not pay more than RM250 whenever their lost or stolen credit cards are used by others. Yet, oftentimes, they end up paying much more.

This is because Bank Negara has not informed cardholders that they do not have to pay more than RM250 for fraudulent transactions carried out using their lost or stolen cards, when they had not acted fraudulently and had informed the banks about the lost or stolen cards as soon as possible.

This protection is given under Clause 13.2 of Bank Negara’s Credit Card Guideline (“The cardholder’s maximum liability for unauthorised transactions as a consequence of a lost or stolen credit card shall be confined to a limit specified by the issuer of credit cards, which shall not exceed RM250 provided the cardholder has not acted fraudulently or has not failed to inform the issuer of credit cards as soon as reasonably practicable after having found that his credit card is lost or stolen”).

Banks know about Clause 13.2 but have chosen to ignore it. Instead they pursue cardholders for the fraudulent transactions.

They will tell cardholders that a clause in the credit card contracts states that all transactions carried out before the loss of the cards are reported to the banks, are deemed to be carried out by the cardholders.

Many cardholders then pay up because they are unaware of the RM250 limited liability.

Bank Negara should rule that:

·THE RM250 maximum liability on fraudulent transactions is highlighted to cardholders in the card agreements as well as in the monthly card statements.

·BANKS are not allowed to insert any clause in the card agreement which is contrary to Clause 13.2.

·BANKS should refund all money in excess of the RM250 collected from cardholders whose cases clearly come under Clause 13.2.
