The revenge of the Androids: The new HTC Magic saves the day!

Back in the old days (even though i am not so old enough to use that phrase), if you owned a Nokia 3310, you look fabulous.Famous.Rich-looking. Now, we all can just laugh at this bulky,weapon-alike (a perfect ones for Naomi Campbell) phone. Well, introducing my first-ever phone back when i was still a Primary 4 student, the Nokia 3310.








Of course,since then developments for mobile phones are unstoppable. You name it; iPhone 3G, Blackberry Storm, Samsung Omnia, whatever. Till, one day, HTC finally introduces an Android-powered HTC Magic to Malaysia!

-hey, what goes around, comes around!





To compare this magically Android-powered phone with my first mobile phone, is like comparing the rich and the poor. With a 3,2 inch TFT LCD flat touch-resistive screen with 320 by 480 HVGA resolution, this HTC Magic will magically transform your experiences on mobile phones to a better ones. Well, I'm sorry to say that, my previous Nokia 3310 doesn't even have a pixel on it's screen. In those days, black and white was the 'It' fashion for mobile phones. Don't even bother to expect some resistive effects when you touch the 3310 screen, just like the ones on the HTC Magic phone.




Oh, and thank God the HTC Magic was well-equipted with Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11 b/g (even though I have no idea what dat means) for a more convenient ways to surf the net! Yeah, of course I wouldn't expect even a WAP service from a 3310, what more to say a Wi-Fi.

What's more to compare a HTC Magic with an ordinary 3310? 3.2MP camera on HTC but none on 3310, popular audio (MP3, WMA, AAC, AAC+, MIDI, OGG, AMR-NB) and video formats(MP4, 3GP) readable on HTC but not on 3310, and what else? HTC Magic also had this QuadBand GSM/GPRS/EDGE, and HSPDA/WCDMA enabled for high speed internet connection. Well, 3310 only provides a network selection of 900/1800 only... And, the freedom of file sharing with Bluetooth 2.0 makes file transfers faster and convenient.



Since traditional maps are over-rated, i guess it's time to switch to GPS when it comes to lost-tracks or road guides. The HTC Magic has it all; GPS and a digital compass to make your journey less confusing. However, all you can do with a 3310 when you are practically lost, is to make a phone call, provided there's a clear reception...

And, since this HTC Magic is powered by Android, then say hello to wide range of mobile applications. Yes, I am talking about games, applications, whatever stuffs that can make you an addict to your own phone!

Okay, F.Y.I Android Market is a website whereby you can purchase applications, games, whatever fun stuffs you can imagine to be in your phone. For an instance, the Twidgit Lite applications powered by Android, enables you to Tweet 24/7! Care for some games? Of course you can download games applications such as Mystique or Crystallight Defence. Now, how cool is that?

Owh, and of course, you don't need those classical SMS Codes to download which is available in mags or newspapers, coz it used to be the hot stuffs back at the 3310 age.

Trip to Gawai Redeem at Apar

gosh really need to blog/brag about this!
Am so glad me and my sis made it to the Apar village for this happening Gawai redeem.note that

am an illegal driver and i am driving that night.phew...

View Larger Map

quite happening though, coz most of my cousins are going together.kinda like a road trip or something.

gosh, i must tell you, the parking sucks big time! and, since i unluckilly drove our Iswara without no power steering, so i need to muscle up the steering wheel.damn! apa bole buat, i have to park the car quite far from our actual destination.

nevermind.speaking of the Gawai redeem.shockingly, there's also fun fair going on there. coz i was expecting some ordinary long houses with a dance floor playing Indonesian/Local dangduts, while people surrounding the dance floor all acting shyly.

this is what the longhouse looks like in the interior.

visitors served with tuak(of course) and some food.



padat!


damn it's like Kuchingians are everywhere!

anyway, since the longhouse is kinda boring and stuffed with people, so we decided to test drive the Ferris wheel first!

beruk.

beruk.

gio and Adi.my cuz's ear included.

scene from upstairs.in the ferris wheel.

tuan punya telinga.she's freaking out! guess height is not her thing.



before the Ferris wheel ride...

sis and Adi

random!

did i mention there's also fun fair going on around here?

where you can play games and win these stuffs...

telletubies?lol. or...

hard teddy bears? well, just play some of these games (some are shown)

or

or

LOL. these pics are just a part of the Gawai redeem scene. owh, even our beloved Head minister Pehin Sri Taib Mahmud is around.LOL.

went back around 1 coz it's getting darker, and the fog is getting thicker.

the 'cuti' plan:House season 5!

aiyoh tell you what. so boring lah! so, i decided to blog about my boringness, coz i am bored.no other explanation.

been watching series a lot, and i mean A LOT to fill out my extra times. and since i just finished House season 5 (actually, i missed out 3 episodes from Adin), i was a lil shocked.

coz there's this episode whereby House's co-worker named Kutner suddenly commited suicide! i was like, hell shit! i didn't expect this to come out from the House series. Then again, where's the excitement if there's no suspense.

seriously, it did hit me at that time. or maybe i was being over-sensitive coz suicide was taken as an issue in that particular episode.but, don't get me wrong and start thinking i am with a Kleenex and weeping over some fictional death.

hey, talking about being fictional. since you died fictionally, so i guess you also should have a fictional orbituary! Don't blame me for giving the idea, instead blame Facebook for providing such things.

hey, even Kutner's fictional collegue had written some sort of orbituary for Kutner!

why am i not surprised that House's one will be blank?

yes, i know i'm obsessed! hope you guys knew the characters of the series House, coz if u don't, then there's no point of these pictures.

Damn i'm obsessed already. who know, later might be Ugly Betty or Heroes.

Owh Am Gee! Celcom, you did it AGAIN!

Damn I'm sick and tired of complaining at almost everthing! but, some things just seemed NEEDED to be complaint! SUCH AS THIS:

Introduce to you all, Celcom Broadband Blue Cube, the so called "Fastest Broadband in Malaysia". Need to rephrase that sentences, Celcom.

The thing is, paying $70+/month and getting slow internet service doesn't feel right.

I mean, how the fuck could i surf the net with a GPRS speed? Like i said, Celcom did it again.And again.

Maybe it's time to switch to WiMax.

WHY SWINBURNE LIBRARY SHOULD BE RENAME AS : SWINBURNE'S PASAR MALAM

OK i am gonna be preety honest with my opinions. Dont blame me for potraying racial issues around.

so it is study week for those Degree students starting early this week and ends around next week, and yes, it's study time! no more honeymoons. well, apparently not for some of us....

A universal description of a LIBRARY is: a quiet place, a place to do homeworks, strictly no foods and drinks, a place full of knowledge and inspiration, and whatsoever which is related to study stuff.

so of course being a not-so-smart-student, i brushed up all my knowledge, hoping that i could pass this semester.

studying in the Swinburne library? i may say that, it may not be the best option so far. In fact, instead of getting more knowledge, i gained more stress and strain in my brain nerves! The noises makes me wanna go GAHHHHH!!!

Those fucking international students(not all of them), who i assume that they think that they are far more richer and more priviledge than us locals, are frequently with their loud noises, jokes, laughters, giggles whatsoever. Like, talking/joking with a loudness of more than 120 db? why not, just leave the library and you can joke/laugh/chat with your friends as loud as you want!

I mean, do you even know that a library is a place to study and concentrate? i doubt you all don't. Ouppsie, i forgot: those international student aren't the only ones who did all the noice, in fact, most of the Swinburne student does it, tidak kira bangsa apa lah. Cina ka, Dayak ka, melayu ka, i think we all did it.

AIYOYOYOYO! I FELT LIKE SHOUTING THIS TO THOSE WHO CAN'T SHUT THE FUCK UP:

OI SIAL PEOPLE! U CANNOT KEEP QUIET, GO FUCK OUTSIDE LAH! GO LIBRARY DON'T STUDY WHAT FOR?GRRR!!!

So, consider our library is best suited with a name pasar malam then.

Comment, anyone?

ACCIDENT!

16TH JUNE,TUESDAY:

GIO REPORTING LIVE FROM JALAN TUN JUGAH HEADING TOWARDS THE KAMDAR SUPERSTORE OR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT GOING TO SONG...

THIS IS TO BE POSTED AS A LESSON TO BE LEARNT: DRIVING ON THE ROAD AIN'T ANYTHING LIKE DRIVING IN GRAND THIEF AUTO, OR NEED FOR SPEED, COZ THERE'S NO RESET BUTTON TO START IT ALL OVER.

what a beggar!

I know, i wasn't suppose to be blogging right now, but seriously, I think I should spread the news, in the name of proper justice(apa kah...)

okays, so do you guys know a beggar who always sat outside Maybank besides Sarawak Plaza? Coz rite now, this beggar guy just change his 'business' location, which is at opposite Chicago Seven.

View Larger Map

(in case u can't use the Google Map, scroll through until u see central park commercial ctr.)

so i was rushing to withdraw my money from Maybank, and then i was surprised to see the same beggar which i saw from Maybank Sarawak Plaza Branch. so, i was thinking, whether this guy was so lazy to work and chose begging money at banks, hoping that somebody would spare some ringgit for his daily meal.

So anyway, since i was running out of time, i just ignore the beggar who begged for money and said something like "tolong bang saya sudah lamak tak makan bang", or something similar.

after withdrawing, i then rush back to my ride, hoping that i am not too late for my next destination.

and then, this beggar begged for some money again, using the same line above. so i was thinking, maybe next time. after all, i had always gave him some money back when that beggar was sill at Sarawak Plaza branch.

to my surprise, that beggar cursed me because i don't donate him some money! OMJC!

i heard he said "cibai punya budak" just after i passed him. what the......

so, cursing me for not sparing any ringgit for you? big mistake, bro. You had just offend the person who is kind enough to donate money to the needy, but i am not sure you are one of them. It's just not at the right moment you go begging some money from me.

okay, so maybe I was a little right about that beggar. Maybe, he was the lazy beggar category. coz, as far as i am concern, even the blind nenek or datuk sell some tissue at the Satok overhead bridge, instead of begging. And, from my point of view, i think the Maybank beggar was still young and was able to work.

so, in case you are reading my blog, Maybank beggar, i would wanna say this: kiss goodbye to my $1, coz i am not giving you anymore!!

it's been a while.....

since my last update, of course!(slap face)

first of all, i will make a "short list" to simplify my non-existence/absentees/whatever suits best from this Blogger world thinggie:

• programming assignment, undone, yet just sent it hoping that there's some 'markah kesian' from my lab instructor.
• currently doing 4 engineering maths exercise, plus 2 tutorials, all incomplete, and v.tough one.
• final exams around the corner, yet still haven't touch a bit of Material n processes, energy n motion, programming, CAD...
• i sacrificed my energy n motion test because of my stupid programming assignment, and as a result, i got an extremely low mark for the test.
• i'm getting paranoid of everything, and i mean it!

okay, so i know you all would forgive me, and i promise that after my 3 weeks in hell, i will be readily explore the outside world in the search for inspirations for my next blog issues.

just so you know, i skipped my Gawai fun just for my fucking assignments and tutorials, and preparations for the finals.

i mean, skipping Gawai is like, skipping your social life! Gawai happened to be once in a year only, but i am skipping it out as if there's another Gawai in the same year! lol.

btw, just so you know, i am testing my Twitter and see whether it is a fun thing to play with. okay, gtg,,,

mosses.... on my morning bread!!

yesterday morning,i nearly ate this bread, when suddenly my sis "heroeically" said 'NOOOOO!! DONT EAT THE BREAD!!!'

to my surprised,


see the greenish spots on the bread? they aren't colours, i swear! they are mosses a.k.a kulat!

i almost consume this kulat-ish bread.eww..

bluweks!

got some more, but i feel lazy to snap all the crime scene.

FYI, we bought this bread for not even more than 24 hours, and bread are supposed to have a shelf life for about 48 hours. looks like, some shops here have negleted their responsibilities to get rid of overdue breads......

after a few considerations, i decided not to display the bread's brand, and the name of the shop.

June: the best month of all, or what?

there's more than a happening events on the month of June, and yet i am still not so excited about it. what the hell?

1. class reunion, form 5 batch 2007 reunion, all going on in the month of June. not so excited about it, coz i may be unavailable for happy hours during the month of June coz my freakin final exam clases during this month! however, i may be reconsidering to spare a lil time for enjoyment with my forever long lost friends whose currently in all over the world furthering their studies, and a weekend with them may be a good idea, even though this means a day loss for my revision :(

2. The Gawai season is coming! and who doesn't like Gawai, where we can spend money on gambling and eat porks or whatever sorts of enjoyment. and the best part of it, cuzzies! well, the problem with Gawai is that, Gawai happens to be in the month of June, and this means more clashes with my revision, again! but, i am surely not gonna miss my beers and gambling.

3. Final exam on the 15th of June, and beyond! What's the catch? at least a pass for all subject; which includes Programming, Material and Processes, Enginnering Maths, Energy and Motion, CAD Drawing.... well, consider myself being on the verge of failure, again. and the worst part of failure? Money flow, again!

4. My birthday! OMG like.... just kidding. Birthday joys are so over for me, coz whatever wishes i made during my Bday was unanswered, and left unanswered. Kidding again! when is the big day? can't tell ya, and keep trying guessing the date.

5. sem break, i guess. coz, usually after the finals, cuti will follow up the day after. so, i guess this mini "vacation" would be fun when it is served with friends and more money.

I think i will just make this list as short as possible.

Welcome to the world, baby Xavier!

introducing my friend, Jack and his new born.

Thank God baby Xavier (still unofficial) had a slight recovery from jaundice attack. According to Jack, his condition now has gotten better. Halleluia!

Being stalked by a GAY!

haha and it ain't me, OKAY. NOT ME, NEVER!

so, yesterday at Kenny's, there's a group of customer consist of 2 guys, a nenek and a lady with squinted eyes. Since it is their first time at Kenny's (they told me, and they v. blur when it comes to ordering foods), so i assisted them to order what's best for a dinner for 4. so, i suggested family meal set lorr.

okay, cut to the chase, after a while, my friend went out for a smoke. cun-cun la pulak, my first-timer customer just now just finished their meal.

without me realising, one of the guys (who don't look like a queer) with red shirt approach my friend just now who went out smoking.

I saw them (from inside Kenny R.) chatting, like for a v.v.v. short time. So, i was thinking, maybe those ppl just now are his relative or something.

Then, suddenly my friend came back to the restaurant, laughing. I was like, what the hell?

RUPA-RUPANYA...

My friend told us,that guy just now with red shirt, asked for his phone number! but, my friend refuse and asked why. and then, the guy in red shirt said things like,

"sikda, pake borak-borak time malam jak. sik salah kan?"(nothing, just for a midnight chat. ok rite)

OMG! OMG! OMG!

i felt like, laughing till my heart out! hahaha! like, why the hell would A NORMAL GUY ask for ANOTHER GUY'S PHONE NUMBER? i say, QUEER!

luckily, my friend did not gave him my number instead! coz, deep down in my friend's heart, i knew he would do that. just, forgotten. Damn!

okay, FYI this post was not meant to tembak any gay dudes outside there, okay. i mean, if u like guys, then so what. your life what...

EROTIC kopitiam

i seriously hope you peeps noticed a coffee shop in front of Star Cineplex, named Green Hill coffee shop or something.

View Larger Map

(about 5 blocks downwards after Harbour View, opposite Star Cineplex)

famed for it's wantan soup special ( not for muslim food enthusiast), i may say that this shop had made it's name among Kuchingians for this dish. 

however...

i was served with this exotic/erotic decors...

and..

how... err... fascinating.

i love...... ALIENWARE DESKTOP BACKGROUNDS!

oupps.... i forgot: THE THEME also!

Please click my little friend below to find out what the hell am i ranting about.

i was so fascinated by this Alienware website, coz i am able to customize my own desktop background. check out how i'm experimenting with these cool website.

damn! not so clear lah. okay, the above was the front interface before you start anything. as you can see, at the far left, you can choose your graphics according to your tastebuds.

like the one above, is under GAME CHARACTERS. so, i suggest you go explore yourself lah. coz, there are other things besides GAME CHARACTERS for you to choose.

the "NO TRESPASSING" was under MISCELLANEOUS.

wah can put bloodstains also. however, i find it a lil unattractive.

too bad, the pics are quite small. here, i was arranging the askar to chase after the alien. lol.

well, if you spend some time on arranging the suitable spot of your characters, you might come up with some nice 3D sort of image.

well, don't like the characters? why not switch to some background changes. the above was taken from BACKGROUND.

can't get enough of Alienware's seductive backgrounds? why not go for Alienware's theme? explore the website yourself, and you might bump into the theme section, where you can also download stuffs and so on.

For GOD'S SAKE, watch this shocking vid!

OMG! i am totally speechless towards this video. must watch!

can somebody call the Police, or the Military, to kill that woman? grrr....
