Eat Alone

We always went out for lunch instead of having it in the cafe in the factory. These days I need to fetch my wife for lunch as she had no appetite to the food in their cafe. So, I didn't go with my friend that frequent anymore.

Today... Friday, we have 2 hours break, so I can't go with my wife as she only have one hour. So normally Friday, I will went out for lunch with friends. But today... my gang all got their own plan.. So i am the one left behind.

What to do, their boss is buying them appreciate lunch for the whole year of hard work. But my boss hio.... she went for the appreciate lunch as well.. with her boss :(..

My brain become totally blank and dun know what to do. Eating alone ..... where to eat, what to eat.... wonder...

My friend just handed a KFC voucher before lunch time, so I just use it and go to KFC and eat alone..

Feel so lonely......

Haunted Lift

Today early in the morning, I nearly get fainted during taking lift to get my car....

Ya, nearly... mean not yet lo... ya right?!! NOT YET....IS NEARLY.. OK? :P What had happened?

I have early meeting today, so wake up earlier than normal, but still a bit rush. Right after I am ready to go, I went out from my apartment, but still I have to wait for my lovely wife, pregnant women, a bit clumsy and slow. :P

While waiting, I feel someone in red came out from another apartment and walk towards the lift, I didn't see clearly as I am doing something else and the lift is at another corner (I won't know if anyone come out or in from the lift). So I didn't care much on that as I am in the rush. And at the same time my housemate's bf come from the lift to look for his gf in my house.

When my wife is about ready, I headed straight away to the lift. And the number stated as Level -7 (level where my apartment is). I feel so happy as I am in the rush.

The door open slowly and I can't hold myself to get in and ask my wife to act fast. But when the door get fully opened. I saw a girl with red shirt standing right inside the lift.

OMG.... What happen. I am stunned and can't do anything. Damn.... the girl inside also got surprise and press the button to close the lift door.

WTH, what had I seen.....? Crazy?!!!!!! My heart nearly stop beating....

Later I found out she is human, not other stuff..... phew~.....

What happen to her to stay in the lift without pressing any number to get down?

Problematic!! She is the one staying next door to mine. What is she doing from the time she went out, and my housemate's bf arrived (when the lift shud stop at my apartment level) and until I went to get lift.

What is she doing inside the lift?!!!! Mimpi a? Problem......

Early Early nearly get me fainted.....

Stop being the 2nd Crow

I wonder since when I get attracted by the crow and may be they are everywhere. I know a lot of chinese dun like the crow, to them crow did bring bad luck to them. May be because of the color of crow, which is black.

I plan to blog about the crow that I snapped that day long time back, but I had forget about this until I do a clean up on my camera photo.

There are 2 crow who are fighting each other for a piece of meat. I believe the meat was initially found by the first crow and while 2nd crow is trying to grab the food from the first one.

Looking.........


Aiming..........


Attack ...........


Is that mean anything? What is so special about the scene I snapped?

Don't you feel that more and more people like to be the 2nd one? Who didn't put any effort and trying to grab from others who work hard for it.

People start to use dirty tricks to get the thing they want, steal people's content, clone people's web site.. etc... putting nothing in but expect something out from there.

Recently I heard one of the famous tech blog is being clone (99% cloned), we had heard a lot about stealing content, copy cat, but this way too much, clonning the whole web site.

For me, If I own a gun, I would say bye bye to the 2nd crow and pull the trigger.

No pain no gain, please stop steal ppl's content and effort.

Don't mis-udestood, I didn't hate them for copy my content, but I am happy. :)

Copy la.. if you like.... 2nd crow.... and I don't have any gun.

My Baby Blog New Template

After the whole night of hard work and touch up, finally I got my baby's blog a new template and layout.

But still, I need to do some modification on the post in order for it to present better under this post.

Please give me some comment on the template and the design. Personally I like the banner I create. The babies are so cute.

Here is the snapshot.



I had completed this task as mention last week.... phew!...

I have few more web site design that I need to work on. Hope to get all done by CNY.

Site Effect after domain migration

I dun know if i shud post it here, but there is something to share about the experience I have and may some of the bloggers might wanted to know when they plan to get the own domain wtthout the hosting.

I had done the migration to my new domain on my other project, WeLovePenang.com, but I had found the site effect of it and I plan to revert back which is a bad move, I guess....

This is what I found after my migration.
1. My nuffnang doesn't work ==> need to update the nuffnang acc.
2. My Adsense doesn't track this ==> Need to add in
3. My Alexa ranking drop significant on my welovepenang.blogspot.com.
4. Google can't crawl my content.

So overall is, when I migrate, I reset all the effort I had done to establish my rank in the search engine, alexa ranking, and all the adsense history.

What does those mean to me? I lost my traffic from Google Search Engine. As it yet to start crawling my content.

I am so sad and I need to start overall back from zero

What should I do? emm... Shud I revert it back? Should I?

Can someone tell me? Can you?

Bz bZ BZ...

Today I am so busy on the whole week and I slept at 3am everyday. Beside my company work, I need to manage 3 blogs. WeLovePenang had just migrated to self domain, AllaboutCS had got its new template, CNY banner for this blog..

This is the 3 item that I had accomplished this week. I am so happy at least I am able to do per plan even it is very stress and I am very tired now.

But I did nothing for my baby blog. I shud had design new template and banenr for my baby blog and I had been long time I didn't updates the blog.

Baby, I am sorry.. It is my fault and I really poor in time management and I am stuck now. But I promise I will blog about you at least 3-4 post per week. You have my word.

In the coming weeks, there are more thing awaiting for me and I really need to ensure everything per schedule, or else.... I am gone... NO HOLIDAY for CNY :(

Must Complete:
New template for My Baby Blog

Food: Bake Sweet Potatoes

My mum always told story about her time, when she is young, she and her family members need to work hard in order to support their family. Everyone need to work and most of them stop the study after primary school.

And the life at that time is terrible and they need to wake up early in the morning to go out with bike to get the food for the pig. Ya .. for pig and it is very early like 5-6am in the morning, ride in the dark and go to get the kangkung by the river side or beside paddy field.

Can you imagine how their life is? Appreciate on what you have now. I heard my mum said sometime they only have potatoes as their meal. Imagine!!!

Today, I just bought few baked potatoes from Jusco, QB Mall. I can smell them from far away. Those are from Japan and it is sweet potato. But I just too full to take it after paying (RM3.30 for 2 potatoes).

After I went home, my lovely wife help me (sorry.. shud say being forced :P) to peel off the skin and of course I eat la.. LoL..



The first one we have is so sweet and yummy, I love the taste. I can't hold myself to get the other one.



But it make me throw out after the first nite. OMG, the taste just yaksssss

I still can feel it now. :{

So overall the 1 potato (skinny one) cost me RM3.30... Too expensive... what a waste!!!

And now life change and standard of living improved. That's why we are willing to pay RM3.30 for a Japanese sweet potato instead of having to dig for potato ourselves last time.

Appreciate on what we have now......

Swallow in the sky

It had been my habbits to bring along camera wherever I go. I like to capture anything I saw and share with you all.

Ya, I know, there are not much ppl that read my blog. But still I will blog for this.

This is the scene I get. I saw a huge crowd of swallow flying in the sky, what i mean is huge ... nearly hundred of them. This is not common at Penang, especially not at this hour. I mean 2-3pm.


They normally came out when it is about to rain or evening. It is kind of weird and not common. And these huge of numbers, it is not common too.

I suspect there is someone who is modified the house to breed those swallows to get their nest. I heard the revenue is hitting millions per year. I didn't see much modified house at Bayan Baru, but town area, yes....

My hometown is famous of the modified houses and shop lot for bird nesting. Wonder how many millionaire formed last year in my town....

New banner for Chinese New Years

Dun know if you have noticed, I had create a new banner for my blog. This is the first time I work on my banner on my own. Hope you all like it.

I had done few version and most of them doesn't seem meeting my own expectation and finally come out with something you saw now.

The CNY is around the corner and everyone is very bz doing all the cleaning and shopping for CNY goods. Me too. Just done on the shopping for this la that la. And very tiring now.

Kampung Activities 1: Fighting Cock

This is the shot I get while I am having my lunch with my wife few days back. The 2 cocks are attacking each other.



I dun know if you have seen this kind of battle before, but this is kind of common activities for kampung folks. This is the battle between two specially bred cocks in a ring. The rooster is trained on stamina, attacking kills, strength and etc.

This was an entertainment to the farmer and rubber tapper after work during tea time. In order to increase the excitement of the fight, the rooster is armed with either gaffs or knives tied to the leg in the area.

It is very cruel to the animals; and it slowly turned to a gambling activities. That's why the activity become illegal now.

For me, I have seen it once, but without armed and gambling. Purely an entertainment for the orang kampung like me during when I was a small kids. I missed those kampung activities so much.

Nowadys, less and less people know about those activities anymore. What the kids are having is homework, computer, training, tuition, this and that. I wonder if they can have their own childhood like we do.

Crazy Act1: Dun spend all your money

I've just read about Joyce experience on trapping herself and friend at the company car park. So poor la, especially at night. Luckily she is not alone, else she might have problem.

This experience make me recalled on one of my crazy experience few years back. I believe it is 4 years back. It happen at Prangi Mall, Penang. As usual, we parked our car at the basement car park and go to get ticket for 9pm show.

Sorry, I can't recalled the movie name. After that, we go to have our dinner. I don't remember what triggered us to have the crazy idea to spend all our money in our pocket and wallet. Spend every single notes and coins that is with us.

We are so excited about ideas and we start to spend, send to buy this, buy that, and trying to get ways to spend it.

At last, we manage to spend all our money and most of the shop start closing, and it is time for our movie...after the movie, we decided to went home.

The whole story start here.... When we got our car and driving towards the exit, suddenly... recall we need to PAY the PARKING FEE...

Panics.... So HOW?

We don't have any $$ left in our pockets, but only some coins I manage to get inside my car. Both of us panics.

I remembered there are few banks around and I can get the cash withdraw using ATM. So we park our car and walk out from the car park and go for our $$.

You know what..we went to 3 banks and all banks ATM is temporarily OUT OF SERVICE!!!!

PANICsssssssssss.. nearly fainted.......

How? How? How? How? We have no $$ to pay for the parking charges.

OK.. Call friend to help. Who shall I call? I am not from Island, don't have friend on the Island that time...

But finally I able to get my best fren "HON CAI" come for a rescue.....but need to wait for an hour....

We wait for 45 min and we plan to give us a try... We drove towards the counter and tell him.. this is the coins we have, we dun have $$ left with us....

The uncle is so kind and just press the button and let us go....

~phew....

HOREY... we had released from the CAR PARK..... horey...

We waited until my friend arrived and thanks him before we went home. I appreciate what he had done for me. Appreciate that....

SO no more IDIOT IDEA anymore....

Tech: SMS to yourself?

This is an idea from PG Tua Poi, one of my friend, he ask me this question previously if we can sms to ourselve? Emm.... wonder?

Can a? Had you tried?

We always send mail and cc ourselves for better follow up and keeping tracks.But I never think of that can we do it the same way like on the cell phone SMS.

How would you think? Make sense right?

Ya, it makes sense and we have tried it and it works. Dun believe? Try it yourself.

Next Post... Giving Hints

I think you must familiar with this.... If you are not... Stay tune. I am going to post it after I get all the video clip ready.

Hope can get everything done and posted tomorrow.

Lantern Deco

As I mention in the previous post, I am doing some deco on my house for coming CNY. This is my annual task that assigned by my mum to keep all the lantern on every year.

Previous years, we chose the 4 lantern in a row as our deco, but this year, we are trying something new and special. That day I saw QB Mall is deco with huge lantern as show below, so by the time I went home, I can't stop to share it with my mum and we decide to have something big this year.




So I go the the market in the Sunday morning to buy 2 huge lanterns and here we are. I am so excited to get it hocked up and see how it looks like. See? Very colorful right? I like it.



This is the same way of setup on common lantern where they use 2 strong steel to stretch the lantern in a round shape. If you never setup one before? Then here is the secret... :P



This is what I had after 1 hour of hard work. The photo I had is without other deco, why? My camera out of battery. :( Will post more on the deco next week.





Thanks for reading this. Appreciate you can read until the end.

First Post after Re-layout

Just came back from home town and can't hold myself to get the new template plug in and do the final touch up until now. I am so tiring now. I can't imagine the touch up on the template will drag me until this hour.

Even though I had get used to the odd hour blogging, But after whole day of cleaning and decorating my house, I am so tired now.

Finally, this is my new dress for you, my blog.

I am sorry, as I promise to get you a red dress, but I can't find my suitable one. This will be your new dress for coming chinese new year. OK? Later if I got time, I promise to get you something special. You have my words.

So, anyone can give me any comments? I beg for comments now.

Beside re-layout, I am going to add more topics in this blog beside my personal diaries, complaints, and feeling.

What I am going to add? Stay tune and you will know. Thanks.

Last few days, I saw a friend who own a blog and I am one of the frequent readers for what she had been writing, but she didn't know who am I.....

I own the welovepenang blog and due to the current full time work, it will create a lot of inconvenient if the news spread... especially to my boss...... But .........when I saw her, I feel guilty, I am reading all her feeling, her experience and I always see her around....

I felt like I am actually hijacking all her... so I decide to let her know who I am

You might argue that, she already wrote in the blog, she would expect people to read about it.....

Resident Evil: Penang Crow

It is my usual habit to stand at the balcony and look out to the greenly field and try at USM. It is very good view from my house.

I like the scenery so much and it is very windy..

ops..... I am not trying to promote my house la... but hor... ok la... forget abt it..



Few weeks back, I saw a group of crows flying around USM area, it is not one or two or three... it is a lot....20-30 crow flying together...

I assume they are going to have their regular line walk to survey the market.. haha...



or may be their are having a spot check on the area..... ????

or there are going to be some bad thing happen...... ????

But when i saw that, it seems so similar to the Resident Evil Crow attack...

Ya la.. i know la... that one is damn a lot.. this one is "sap sap sui"....

Just for DES

Hi, Des

This is wat I saw at my side, I wonder if it is by browser problem or anything had happended....

Here is the one i saw.... I think one of the widget cause it an issue... or it is my browser problem...

Stolen ......

I am assuming that current metal price is very high and a lot of ppl start to steal all the metal stuff and the drain cover is one of the hot item among the rest.

So, you might had noticed that a lot of people is putting a lock on their drain cover....

But this round is not the drain cover.... but the fire hydrant cap and tap that get stolen..... The pole of the fire hydrant is still there....



I believe it is too had to steal the body as it is mounted on the ground. Else the body also get stolen......

Damn... if there is fire happen.... how the fireman connect the pipe to the fire hydrant.... DAMN.....

I wonder what metal stuff get stolen next round?..... Trailer's container? or anything bigger? A plane or a ship?
