A world of numb3rs
Mathematicians will probably tell you that the everthing, almost everything, can be explain in numbers. Everything in this world is full of numbers. Look up many ancient mysteries and you will find a lot of mathematical explaination, or rather unexplain. No one every tells me about what is beyond counting 1 2 3. If only....
Numb3rs is a drama that involved the crimes and solving them using Maths. Oh yeah, you heard me, its maths. But half the time.. wait, actually I would say ALL the time, you will probably not understand the formula used in the program, unless you are
- a maths genuis
- a student major in maths
- a nerd
Wish someone would have told me that maths formulae can be so much more interesting than counting dollars and cents. Or total number of fingers and toes. I might have pursue in maths then, when my brains were better. I think they are just filled with coconut water now. I can count beyond my 9 fingers and 11 toes hor.
Dunch ya juz love the techie
This is amazing shit called TheToy. I have no idea what is going inside the head of the engineer who brainchilded this
Ok, they say it supposed for this one features but intelligent and adventurous people will always try their best to make the best of their moolah and find more than one way of expanding its functionality.
I think ISP is so going to love you. I really think so. Or you might start hearing very very long lasting SMS tone that just refuse to stop. Or at least if something went terribly wrong, you can go to the doctor and say its my vibrator that got stuck, not my handphone.

Facing your fear II
Life is not exactly life without fear. How many people can actually say that they have no fear in life. I think a person can lead astray when there is entirely no fear in life. A person with no constraint in life can really go abit over the hill and cannot be refrain.
Maybe calling it a fear is an overstatement but I would probably just state it as something that is kind of killing. One would always say that liking someone is such a blissful thing but then when you are falling for the wrong kind of people, it can just turn out to be quite a torture.
Why would I even say its the wrong kind when nothing even started. Precisely nothing got started because it cannot get started. Its like its heading for doom right from the every start when I would tell myself that why do I actually start to like that person? It is so wrong. Our character would just crash and burn. She is not exactly the ideal person for me and I'm probably not even someone whom she will consider. So how?
I have to find a way to overcome it. I have to let it die, let the feeling die before it gets deeper. Hurt is something that one should avoid, or maybe should try to avoid.
Two songs come to my mind.....
First is this
Strumming dub plates with our fingers,Then is this
Eliminate sounds with our song,
Killing a sound boy with this sound,
Killing a sound boy with this sound,
Taking sound boys’ lives with this dub,
Killing him softly with this sound.
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song.
.
.
.
First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to carry on
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed my stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother
.
.
.
Life does go on. Indeed life does carry on. Avoidance is never a good solution. N-E-V-E-R. It might just come back and haunt you.

The big fella up there
Religon is a very sensitive topic that can be very very touchy if one is not very careful with some saying. Heresay might even be branded on you when the wrong things are been said. So, WARNING BEEN GIVEN. If you think you a hardcore whatever religon, please seriously stop reading. I dowan to be receiving email farking me about what I'm thinking. Hey, if you do that or going to do that, then take my words now. FARK OFF.
Probably some long time friends knew that I used to attend church. Used to is a past tense. I pretty much like to keep it in the past tense. Past means I no longer attend it. And its kind of nagging (I think that might be the word I'm looking for) to have someone
Nay. Those were the days. I chose to let its remain as were.
I cannot believe that I'm on the phone with that someone for almost 2 hours, telling that someone that I am choosing not going to and back to church. I even go sacrilegious to divert and express where my faith is lying. That someone spent a good 15 minutes telling me about this cellgroup that she will be attending tomorrow and so wholeheartedly invite me to go along. And guess what? I told her I have a very important appointment tomorrow. I need to go jogging and mop my floor. Now, knowing my fetish with mopping the floor will definitely explain very well why it is so important to me.
She kept trying very hard to invite me
Oh, I found out from her that her boss thinks I'm against Christian. Now, that is an novel thought. I never thought so myself. In fact, I have Christian friends, and I hope nothing against them. We do sit down and have our meal, and I continue to eat my porkchop. Wait, that is another religon. Ok, on the wrong track.... But I think I know why her boss thinks that way. I'm at fault, that I have to admit. I'm always tell her about some books that will most probably be containing certain heresy topics which might provoke her very staunch convenational thoughts. Its definitely heresy to talk about Piers Anthony's Tarot if she finds Harry Potter a total witchcraft which she ban her son from reading.
Back a long time ago, I have this thoughts. That there's actually a lot of big fella up there. But each of them has their own worshippers and followers, setting their own set of rules for their worshippers and followers. But each indivdual divinity's followers choose to ignore the existence of anything else. But of course, I can never do any proving at all on this. Whoever can ever come out with a theological thesis that prove this thinking, I'm pretty sure that person will be hunt down as a heresy, and causes several religons to come crumbling down. But that is an interesting thought, dunch ya think so? And so coincidental that this thinking exactly down reconcile with a book that I'm reading. Actually I think many books uses this idea. See, its such good thing, but can anyone prove it?
Come to think of it, I have once even question the identity of Christ. I was attending this church camp back then, and then at the end of it, everyone was suppose to share their experiences and faith. I shared mine. I questioned them on the validity of Christ. He appears more than 2000 years ago. Is he who he really is? Is the bible really that accurate? Christ could just be a simple person, or maybe more than simple but done some great deed, and then got promoted up to some deity level by some story teller. Who was to prove my thinking otherwise? You see, they will like to tell you to take things by faith. And so I'm to say that I'm on my faith of that thinking, and I believe its right. You can say I'm wrong, and I can also say that you are wrong, worshipping the wrong deity.
Try telling the buddhist that Buddha (I can never remember his highness indian name) was just a normal human (which he was) and that he does not wants to be worshipped. In fact I have one Christian ever saying that to me. But then, I have think too far back then and I was a fresh new devote to the house of Christ, so I took his words at face value. Now you trying saying that to me, and we can go deep into some theological dicussion, and I think its best done over some whiskey. Thristy, my friend, thristy is not what I like. Now if I reverse this phrase, Christ was human (born as) and who was to say that he wants or wants not to be worshipped? You know, 2 really big religon has their deity started of as human, so how ?
I can now be a multi-god or no-god person. I'm just sitting on the fence. Religon is something that I dowan it to be a part of my life. For now.
PS : never say never.
PPS : you wanna feel the end of days coming, trying watch Days of Noah. Then go read up on all the calamities that been happening around the globe. That will bring you close to feel good about Kingdom Come.

Do you think......?
Googlebomb. Any idea what it is?
No? Look here.
But problem is, if I support them, you think the sillypore politicians will sue my pants off? You know, I can't afford to go to jail. I got no moolah to pay the fines. And if I got jailed for a month, I would lose a month's pay and even my job. Then who is going to feed me?
I know, you are bound to say its up there on the other side of planet Earth but hey, you never know. If Uncle Sam send in a letter to our dear
See, even talking in a virtual space also can get yourself sued. Next time, beware how you dream.
Be afraid.
Be very afraid.

Dying to serve your NS
If our army is has a company of this hot sexy babes as regular, then SAF do not have to worry about no one wanting to sign on or a lack of personnel or boys hating to go in and serve the country. Trust me, I'm sure everyone except the 302 and the i-will-remain-virgin-until-i-get-married will be dying to serve the country, not to even mention about signing on as regular.
No benefits? Nevermind.
No 5 days week? Nevermind.
Stay incamp? Nevermind.
No more 3 month bonus? Nevermind
As long as this is their outfit for all activities and people get to train together with them, nothing else matter. Nothing else.
Long live the Führer!!!!!

A walk down memory lane III : nostalgic
Many many many moons ago, there was a group of us who would gather on a rather regular basis, as often as several times a week (Oh yeah, its that often). How we would just meet up for coffee, meal, party session, or even gossip session. Hey, no one says that men cannot gossip. Its a good way to pass time and have a lot of fun, but very straining on one's karma just as well. In fact, the meet-up was often chosen after normal office hours, meaning to say at least 2000 hours, and that my friend was considered early then.
Time flied by and bit by bit, you will see one by one would start to disappear off the radar. Its a common act, irregardless of the gender, religion, sexual preferences, occupation. Out of 10, 9.5 persons will do that. So its not surprising at all when such things are happening just as well to this little group of ours. This is especially so when start to pair themselves up with someone of the opposite gender but I heard the same gender also works just the same as well. Did I mention that all of us are single back then?
To think then that most, if not all our activities were impromptu. Planning ahead was never our forte. Normally the rounding of the troops are done through the SMS and more often than not, the SMS arrived just shortly before the time of occurances of the activity. Many many many moons later, that is something that is not easy to do. Everyone back then was uncommitted but now, its a totally different game. Consultation had to take place with the other significant half.
So just a few nights ago, meet up with this friend of the past group for a drink. Its an impromptu thing, and to think I reject a date to go drinking with this fellow. And probably I should not even be complaining that I cannot get a date, right? But then hor, its about the right people at the right time wor, dunch ya agree, my man? He called and I simply agreed, since I could do some catching up with him, and for that, I had to speed up my sweeping and mopping of the floor. Did I also mention about my kick with sweeping and mopping? No? Nevermind, I shall leave it for another day. Ok, that chore need to speed up because of happy hour. Oh yeah, that was the keyword. After spending so many years at a club where I'm a regular and no longer used to paying cover charges, I'm not in any mood to pay any cover charges. Cheapolo might be the word you have on mind right now but who cares, I might as well save that bit of moolah and get myself more
Just when I was about to start the mopping, this indian
Actually his first question to me when he first saw me was do you stay here? Allo uncle, you think I'm just wearing my shorts, topless, sweeping the floor, I dun stay here, I stay where? He wanted to do the questions with me, going through them one by one. But I did remind him that I'm really rushing for time, so I tried to answer as much as I could on my own. After the survey, its find out my arse. Not once did they asked me for WHY. The survey just kept asking about my taken on the government involvement in those match-making and speed dating 3rd parties. Now, how the fark you find out why I dowan to get married when you kept asking me about woman from overseas, matchmaking, SDU, SDS? After the survey, I dally abit with the
Damn. In the end, I still didn't make it for happy hour, 5 minutes short! But my friend wasn't in there just as well. He was somewhere in MacDonald using the free WIFI for some work. Good. After dinner, we spent a good half hour trying to decide where to drink. Its either music he enjoyed but more expensive drinks or music he dun like but cheap drinks. I throw in the vote for him. Of course I choose the latter, its my regular club. I assure him that he could skip the music he hate and go sit inside the wine bar for the live music and cheap beer and good whiskey. In the end, it din turned out too bad.
So we chatted about old time sakes, updating lifes of the rest of the people we both knew. Recalling back a conversation I had with him many many many years ago, about what we would be doing 5 years from then. We concluded that we would probably not be partying any more, drinking some less havoc bar, and that might even be some kopitiam, for some beer drinking and eating peanuts. We would then be talking about our
Then following the beer, my dear friend suddenly got the urge for some singing, and off we head to a nearby KTV. We SMS another friend who we always go KTV with to join us but we were 5 minutes late. He just at that moment made an appointment to meet another friend. Did I mention that its midnight already then? See, like I say, its always about the right thing at the right time. I think my toes are giggling away. Two persons also could have great fun at the KTV. And one did not have to wait long for one's turn to sing. At maximum of 5 minutes, unless that
And then several nights later, I went over to look for another group of friends. This group was of different nature. Our common interest lies in comics, manga, anime, and even console games. As they say, 天下乌鸦一般黑 or was it 三五成群 or maybe birds of the same feather flock together. Indeed we do. Its such a nice night. Started from 华山论剑 where it suddenly come across my mind whether 洪七公 was stronger than 乔峰 in terms of martial art. Then you can see all sort of theory starts coming out. Apparently this fellow seems to have read it somewhere that the former was stronger than the latter and the fact that 洪七公 perfected and completed the 降 龙十八掌 had left a few of us flabbergasted. The 降龙十八掌 apparently was not full 18 at the time of 乔峰 and its 洪七公 that created some of them to fill up the 18. Now, would someone tell me where does this theory comes from?
And then I was just saying about 六脉神剑 to be the powerful. If 一灯和尚 knew 六脉神剑, he would have been 天下第一 during 华山论剑. For this I strongly believe but a theory that cannot be proven. What one can only do is to recall all the fact and statement made by the character and do your hypothesis there. Then I also mention that 段玉 was probably the strongest of his time, if he only wish to make full use of his capabilities. He had 陵波微步, 六脉神剑 and 北溟神功. In technical terms, long range he can shoot you, up close he can suck you, and if you try to hit him, he can run and avoid damn fast. But of course in terms of inner strength, someone else argue that 虚竹 is much strong, inheritting 無涯子 70 years worth of inner strength. But of course, I can argue that 段玉 could always turn that 70 years worth of inner strength to be his if he chose to. 小無相功,天山六阳掌,天山折梅手 and 北溟神功 was what 虚竹 and he too could be 天下第一 if he chose to be. I wonder who will win if 虚竹 fight 段玉. See, its such a great night to find like minded friend and put down some hypothesis argument. Oh, you are lost and have no idea what I'm babbling about, go read up on novels by Louis Cha's novels.
Then the night went on with dinner and then it went back to the topic of manga (漫画). Then we started the some very old titles and exchange ideas and views and our takes. Adachi Mitsuru (安达充) turned out to be a favourite artist of me and another fellow, and to the I have known this fellow for so many years and yet I have no idea! This is like discovery channel. And we even shall our love for a particular turn-based diced boardgame on the game console of the early 90s, and that my friend is Super Famicon/Super Nintendo. And we got excited about it and decided to hunt for a copy of that old game but we have no idea what is the game title. Its some japanese title which I did not choose to remember back then. Someone says its called Battle Knight Kingdom and hell I got no information of that on google. In the end, I finally found out its called Dokapon and there's at least one of its game in almost each type of console after the SFC/SNES era. I'm so going to fark that idiot that mention Battle Knight Kingdom to me. Waste so many of my nights to find something wrong. Lucky I still had the title packed away somewhere deeper in my bag of childhood console games.
Doesn't that just makes one so nostalgic?
