Back to Basic


After ~2 weeks marathonly chasing Forensic Horeos II series, it is about reaching the end of the story. Unfortunely, the network today is damn slow... really suffer alots to chase the last few episodes. I will stop watching the series right now, hope the network will back to normal tonite and resume the story. Well, the series is about the forensic investigation, the story explained alots of forensic investigation theories, quite interesting. Basically is like the typical TVB story la, you will disappointed when the series approaching the ending -_-".

The following scene just caught my attention. "Back to Basic" method - apply whenever you confused in decision making or lost somewhere in life. For investigation, if the evident is blur, the forensic have to reaccess the evident again. For debug, if no progress or stuck, maybe there is something wrong in the first place. As for love, if the relationship is getting bore, u can recall the memorable moments and do something that u did to stimulate the feeling again :)

Try flash back to basic while something is stuck, it do helps.

Shihlin Taiwanese Street Snack

Yesterday suppose to join piggy's ex-colleague gathering dinner. However, they changed the venue to have dinner @ Shihlin "restaurant", Qmall due to avoid traffic jam -_-". I thought they will have a grand gathering at some big restaurant. Abit disappointed when saw this "restaurant". The seats are very limited, really like those hawker stall near the round side. Anyway, the snack foods at the shop are really delicious (a bit expensive for the street snack -_-")

This is the hawker stall
The only foods it served

Fresh Oyster Mee Shua - must try
Seafood tempura - taste like Jin long bao -_-"

I not even can turn my back in the restaurant. Piggy, next time gathering please choose a nicer place ho!!

Adopted a pet

Company newly launched program - "adopt a pet". All the permanent staffs are eligible to adopt a pet and company will sponsor rm50 for it. Actually this program is not to educate the staffs on caring animals issue. It is for office ergonomic issue -- adopt a mouse :D

Went to Harvey & bought a laser wireless mouse. The pet has an ergonomic design, attractive color and reasonable cheap price :). It just cost rm79.90 nia - piggy got rm40 company vouchers & wolfy got rm50 company subsidy. Earned rm10.10 some more... lol.

Just big enough to fill my palm
My first Laser wireless mouse :D
My existing mouse & the new tail-less mouse.
I like the AVF's product as it is from Japan and the design vs price very attractive.

JUNE Buddies Lunch - PEN Mutiara

Had a group buddies lunch yesterday. 4 pairs of buddies - botak/sy, sata/tiger, me/arip, irene/looksiew. Team decided to have the lunch @ PEN Mutiara restaurant, Batu Maung. The restaurant is newly renovated and it looks like a 5 star hotel!... another project from BN -_-". Anyway, the specialty of this restaurant is curry fish which we did not order... lol. The restaurant got many "VIP" customers - BN YBs, PKR YBs, polispolis, datuk-datin... i believe the restaurant owner is a VIP as well.

Here are some random shoot before the meal:

Open ceremony Paklah - A day before 08 election!
Irene & SY - so happy huh?Two funny buddies -_-"Who is this guy?Mini waterfall & pond - I want to put this in my house as well :D
VIP session?VIP session 2YC & you-know-who
Photos After the meal:

You guys will wonder why no photo for the foods. Well, what i can said is - EV Food WAR - the monsters prefer to hold the spoon & forks instead of the camera.... haha

Lastly is the trademark poses :). Remarks here: Next time i want to order the curry fish head!

Diarrhoea Again T.T

Twice in a month -_-". Last Tuesday took a day off due to the Diarrhea (Carls Jn's burger poisoned me). Yesterday took a day off due to Diarrhea too. My god... i think this round is due to Kayu's maggie goreng.

This round i went to PANXXXXX instead.Why? Last time went to IMA, i felt like i understand the patient more than the Dr. No eye contact, no physical contact, the IMA Dr just asked me 3 questions - "Yes?", "What you ate?","MC today?". The IMA service is suck! As for PANXXXXX, 1 drawback is, you need to wait for a very very long queue. I wait there for 1 hour only manage to see the Dr. Luckily, got a lenglui (mini-skirt) start a small chat with me, so i wont felt so bore... :"). Time for my turn to enter the Dr room. The nice looking Dr introduced her - she is Dr. Koh. Quite a friendly Dr :). "Mr. Crabby, how can i help you?" Woow, this statement make me felt very comfort. Once she captured my input, she get me lay down and did physical contact on my stomach. After the checkout, she start a small conversation (later i found out that she is dragging the time -_-"). Their new installed database system very crash, she having slow response from enter/retrieving the data, her boss dun want to spend $$ for the hardware, bo bian la. When she pressed the keyboard once, we chatting and i saw the PC only response after few second. OMG, it took about 5 minutes only retrieved all the medicine i needed... and she still using the dotted printer! This is the reason why PANXXXXX need to queue for so long -_-"

After the checkout, I took a day off :D. I found out something - recently so many lengluis take initiative to chat with me. Is it because of my new hair style?? lol

Unleash the iPhone

Sis bought a new iphone for her birthday (partly sponsored by her bf - so rich huh!?). It was a UK model, sold it @rm1800 & cracked with workable flash. It was gorgeous, medal feel & a little bit heavier than ipod touch. Its functions are awesome, I will not share the good thing on iphone here, you can get the hard-sell points from Steve Job directly. I would like to share here about some "improvement-needed" stuff:

1. Undetachable battery - which means the battery die you die loo
2. Website content - unable to download. You cannot save the photo from the web :(
3. Slow interaction - i like to the feeling of fast-pressing the phone with my thumb. However, you cannot do this in iphone. You only can gently swipe the phone with your index fingers which slower down the speed of interaction.
4. No button for games - the touch screen really not a good way to play those high-end games. Sorry :p
5. No excel/word/powerpoint - Worse than windows mobile T.T
6. No Flash - the most disappointed point. Iphone not supporting Adobe Flash yet. OMG, what will the website be if the browser not support flash!

Well, anyhow this is still the best phone in the world. Impossible to get a smart phone with those functions and this competitive price. Iphone still my wishing list's phone.

Flips with index finger. Oops, my Sis is here

Customizes the icons. I like this theme Check crabby's blog :D

View the Youtube... yeah!

* not even 1 week - Steve release the iphone 3G which is much cheaper and powerful than iphone. I wanna get 1 soon.... (anybody wanna sponsor me) hehe

"Mai Shen Kai" signed

Finally made my signature onto the contracts. :) Actually not a signature but few hundreds signature! Man, sign until my hand not able to hold the pen -_-"

Total of four contracts - Bank loan agreement, S&P, land ownership & bank xxx contract. Average 30 pages per agreement, each agreement have 4 copies. We need to drop a signature on each pages. Meaning roughly ~30x4x4 = 480 signatures had been signed, total piggy and I signed 960 times!!!

It took about 30 minutes finished it, hand also turn soft -_-". Maybe this is the reason why Malaysian only bought 1 house in their whole life. Maybe I should use thumb print instead :p

Latest photo of my house :). Flash back my mind - wow, it only took me less than 2 months to buy a house and get everything done. I am worrying if there is any hidden problems....no no no...touchwood -_-"

(KL JUNE) The Garden

Continue on last KL trip... Went to Mid-valley (as usual). This trip, was purposely bring Piggy to the saloon @ The Garden. Piggy got a promotion flyer during last Mei trip - rm99 to cut + coloring by hair stylist. Wow, what a cheap deal... We went straight to Saloon to made appointment. Since worth it, I also ask for the promotion for myself as well :D.

We have our lunch @ the Taiwanese Restaurant - Fong Lye. There was so crowded. We have to wait for a long queue. We manage to get the seats before mum and siss came. The decoration of the restaurant is like typical Taiwanese shop - got water pond, chopstick/bowl, Chinese calligraph, feng shui stuff etc.

Quite a variety of foods to choose from and the price is reasonable (*expensive pun). This round siss "wat" me kaokao la. 1 thing i want to highlight is, the restaurant hired many foreign waiters. Hard to communicate with them - mandarin? english? cantonese? hokkien? They speak neither.

The decoration
Steam fish, Grill Salmon, Shabushabu & Tomato fish

My favorite strawberry icecream :)

Piggy & I have to rush for the appointment after the meal... (to be continue)

(KL June) Pasar Road Revisit


Its has been 4 months not visit pasar road. The last time i went there was back to last CNY. This area is famous of its electronic street, wet market, pets stalls & etc. I used to spend my weekend morning here. As usual, Piggy & I went to took the breakfast near the "Wei Six Gai". The curry mee over there was fantastic (Curry mee @ KL and Penang are totally different). Let me show you what a complete perfect curry mee should have....

A curry mee should has (1) curry...off course la (2) Noodle (3) White Chicken (4) Tao Ge (5) 1 1/2 inch Taofu Pok (6) 1/2 raw Si Ham (7) Pork Skin & (8) Fish Ball. The chili source will play a very important role as well - it should be the belacan chili with half piece of mandarin lemon.
(Penang's curry mee - (3) no, (6) overcooked , (5) less than 1/2 inch Taofu Pok, (7) no, additional Pork Blood.... eeeik!!)

This is my favorite curry stall

After the breakfast, we visited the fish stalls @ pasar road
Nothing to buy though as it is impossible for us to bring
the life stocks back to Penang... (to be continue)

Area for development


A "seems" potential to grow, but i foresee the area is dying and sooner will be took over.
B is the land i dreamed for since the beginning, but i knew it will hardly developed in current situation.
C is the toughest and most challenged area. If succeed, you are the man; else you will have nothing.
D new enviroment, potential of growth guaranteed. But have to relocate my financial and consider tough pun.

A definitely out of my choice. Which property should i choose, C or D?

Kung Fu Panda


Went for a movie at Piramid yesterday. I thought the movie is kindly like the disney fairy tale movie, but after highly recommend by Botak and saw this funny Panda lifeshow at Midvalley, decided to catch this movie with piggy.

The movie not disappointed at all. Great CG animation, excellent story line and lots of funny scenes. Got featured by Jacky Chan some more - voice for the monkey (less than 5 dialogs nia, what a humiliate :D). I rated 10/10 for it. Must see movie for the month!!

Treasure quote in the movie from Master Oogway:
"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift....that's why they call it the present"

Check out this trailer:

两个无奈



今天真的感觉像给人摆上神台。

早上看到 EMAIL 。。。 火都起!

几个"工程师"在玩皮球

还把球推到我这儿来。真的有点失望。

已经不是玩耍的时机了,我不会,也不可能再这样呆下去的。

谁不知,老板飞EMAIL给我,叫我再陪他们玩玩。。。无奈1


无奈2。另一个工程师 IM 我,叫我SUPPORT他的TASKFORCE。。。

EYE DIAGRAM,没问题咯。 还瞒有信心的。

谁不知,当他EMAIL出来给全世界时 : "Crabby will support us, as he is very expertise in eye diagram FFT"

FFT?这么东东啊?Fast fourier tranform? 他真的摆我上神台啊!当我是神仙 -_-"

无奈,我选择眼睛这条路。。。死死也要支持他。


好啦,算是大工告成。老板还来多个"COMFORT PLAN"- 不如找别个"貌狸"来陪他们玩。。。 真是无奈。>_<


心情好坏。当要关机睡觉时,突然同事来个安慰。。。

好感动,眼泪不尽的流落。

除了美琪,她应该是第二个了解软件组的人吧。

谢谢你


"Two Disappointments"
Today really felt like being put on to the God table ("Shentoi").
Early morning, turn up outlook. . . fire start burning inside my body!

Several "engineers" playing ball in the company. Not be surprise, the ball pushed to me off course... Really a bit disappointed.

This is not the time to play anymore, I will not and can not standstill.

Who knows, Boss directly shoot another email to me and told me to accompany them play. . . Disappointment 1


Disappointment 2 . Another engineer IM me and asked me to support his taskforce. . .

I-DIAGRAM ar? No problem lo, as i am quite confidence in the evasion.

Who knows, when he sent out the mail to the whole world: "Crabby will support us, as he is very expertise in eye diagram FFT"

FFT? OMG, what the heck. Fast fourier tranform? He really put me on Shentoi la! He really thought that I was god -_-"

Unfortunately, I have chosen the direction for eye. . . diedie also will support him.

Well, at last still DaiGongGoSing. Boss still not let me go - I want a more "COMFORT PLAN"! (woow...what a powerful statement) , get another "mao lei" to play with his engineers. . . helpless. -_-"

Mood is very bad tonite. While shutting down the PC to sleep, suddenly received a warm comfort from my colleagues. . . very touching, tears droppred unconsciuosly.
Beside MG, she should be the second ppl understand software situation. Thank you. Really appreciate it


*Crabby: The translation is directly from Google & has minor touch up on the phase. Sound a bit unnaturalness. Anyhow, i did spend a day to play with them today as per request by boss -_-" Once again, proved that MG sw is reliable... hehe
