Becareful When Renting a Place to Stay..

June 30, 2008

Dear Friends & Families,

        It has been time that I updated the category “Ghost Story?”. Wanted to write so much but end up writing something else. Maybe, I like to write in the middle of the night that something it freaks me out. Well, as you all know middle of the night winds blow feels chilling. Most of the time I’ll be alone while writing ghost stroy and beside me there are windows and I stay at the 19th floor.. You tell me how you feel.. :( guess you feel the chills too..

      Let’s cut all the craps and I start what I should have start… well I get to know this story from my colleague. Most of my colleague are females.. so I get to know many stuff.. sometime when a dapartment there are many females not a bad idea. She told me get to know this story from a local newspaper..the story happen at Taiwan.. I might be wrong.. I just remember the most important part. It happen… there is a collage student who want to rent a room for the whole semester. It was the beginning of a new semester. This girl alone travel to a nearby housing area.. looking for room to let.. or rent.. and she bump to an old man.. outside a house. The old man ask the girl.. ” Girl, are you looking for a room?, I’ve a room to rent and it will not cost you much.”. Without hestitate the girl after listened the price. She thought it is a good bargain by the way the house don’t look so shady or old.

      She told the old man that she can’t move in this morning or the afternoon because she has class till the evening. Then she made up her mind to move in the night. The old man got paid and he pass the key to girl. At the night, like what she had planned that she moved in the house, and she move all her belongings to her room. After she had moved everything, she very tired and she took a shower before drop dead at her bed.. she was sleeping.. suddenly, she heard that opposite her room there is someone open door and she can hear people moving things into the room. She even clearly listen a luggage bag put down on the floor. She never bother it because she thinks that her housemates are same like her situation where their class till evening and only starting moving in during the wee hours.. She open her eyes and look at the clock and it was 2:15am. She always don’t lock her door even though she at home, so on that night she even didn’t. She heard someone open her door.. and close it.. She never think about anything.. becuase she thought that her housemates thought there is no one in the room and they open the door and saw she sleeping there and close it back.

        The next day, after her class she went back home and get everything unpacked.. after everything was unpacked it was 12am and she plan to take a shower and head to bed. At around 2:15am, she heard there is someone moving in.. she even heard luggage bag drop on the floor. Like what she did last time.. she didn’t bother them at all but at least she lock her door this time. Then.. suddenly… there is someone trying to open her door.. due to she lock her door inside.. the outsider can’t open the door. Then it stops.. she thought her housemates want to introduce themselves. She woke up from her bed and open the door and she look outside… left… right…. nobody there.. she locked back her door and back to her bed.. as she lying on her bed and when look up at the ceiling fan and she saw a body… hanging down from the ceiling fan and the leg was flapping… she quickly ran out from the house and look for her friends at other place…

        The next morning, she went back to the house, while she was going to reach the house.. one of the neighbour came out and greet her and her friends.. the neighbour ask her why she come here.. are she looking for house to rent? she told the neighbour that she had moved in the house for a couple of days.. the neighbour said.. “This house has been abandon for a long time, even we don’t know where the owner has gone. Everytime there are some funny things happen.. and nobody know why.. I advise you better not to stay in there.. move out quickly…”.

       I was a big fan of CSI series. I still remember my first CSI series was the Las Vegas CSI team. After a few episode it keep me glue to my sofa and watching the idiot box projecting the series to me. After a couple of episode I fell that the series lack of something that I’m looking for. Till then they introduced “CSI: Miami”. After the first episode, it will makes me watch the next episode and the next episode. From then onwards.. I’ll try my best not to miss one of the episode. When I got myself a job away from my hometown, that is time where I started to miss some episode. For me to keep updated myself from the series I’ll go back to my hometown every week to watch because every weekend they have CSI marathon.. where 3 CSIseries back to back in one day. I know that not every weekend I can go back to my hometown so I got myself a DVD for the previous seasons.

Even thou, I know that CBS has showed till episode 21: Going Ballistics. Planning to get the whole series in box set..saving up some $$$$ to order it back from States.

Getting my own domain name or a webhosting?

June 21, 2008

Dear Friends & Families,

        I’m really confused here. This topic has been going in my mind for the past few days. I’m really in dilemma from choosing between a domain name or a web hosting service. If I get myself a web hosting service I’m able to store more files such as mp3s to pictures. If I’m really into web hosting I’m stuck in between hosting the site on a local web hosting agent or an international web hosting.

        Comparing the price and the value added service, international web hosting is much better than the local hosting. International hosting provide more web space, unlimited emails and other stuff not to mention the price is much more cheaper. If I get a web hosting now is like a waste of money because I still don’t have so much stuff to store and display or share with you all. Then why not I get a domain name first and point it to my blog itself. Is cheaper, at least I got my own domain name at last.

        Then.. another problem came to my mind. Where should I register my domain name with? there are a lot of website provide domain name registration from local to international website. Ah..!!! Really a big headache. If I’m not getting a domain name in this few months I think I will get one by next year. Got some plans going on my mind. Will let you know soon…..

My New & Old 2″ inch Spec

June 18, 2008

Dear Friends & Families,

I’m not sure whether knew about that I’m a fan of Jordan Chan. I like his movies to songs. That looks very cool and he is different from other Artists. Most of them are those cute boy or good looking guy. As for Jordan Chan, he is different.. why? he is not that cute or pretty guys out there. There is some charisma in him.

Well, last time I used to get all those well known brands of spectacles. For example, Bonia to Amarni. This time around.. I have something in mind. I would like something different and everyone now that I like to try new stuff. Even though there are many people introduce me to a brand called ZeroX. Neh…. not my type! Guess what I walk pass a huge standup board and it is my favorite artist! Jordan Chan! he was the Ambassador for 2″inch or tooinch spectacles. Before I spend a few hundreds on a spectacles I browse thru Internet to check out his brand.. but not even a site host his brand or an online shop.. bummer!

Went to a shop and browse thru many design of the spec and I got myself an Orange one… then this year is time to change my spec.. I got myself the latest design ( I hope ). Check it out!

If anyone know any of the website carrying his brand please inform me.. Thanks!


Malaysia Fuel Price Hike :(

June 18, 2008

Dear Friends, Families and Readers,

Most of you “have” knew what I’m going to say this time by looking at the title of this post. As you all have know that our petrol price has been increase yet another time.. and this time.. my “humble opinion” is not “little” or “quite” but very far over too much. From RM 1.90 to RM 2.70 per liter. OH MY GOD!

” OH MY GOD ! “

” OH MY GOD ! “

” OH MY GOD ! “

” OH MY GOD ! “

This is the first reaction when I got the news that petrol price will be increase by 80 cents. Come on, 80 cents! a sudden jump will really piss off all the tax payers and drivers and bikers. For me… I would said “Sc!@#F G! MUaSD@@#R!” If you say increase by 10 to 20 cents, then I think everyone would not feel the pinch so much. Now is not a pinch on the back! but a BitCH SlaP! on the back. Is like you bike or car drink a bottle of mineral water. At least mineral water got 2 liter, but how about our petrol? 1 liter… Now everyone has to fork out another RM 200+ per month… I’m driving a 1.6cc car. Think about it.. How about the people with bigger CC car? Previously, my car’s full tank of petrol only cost me RM 70+/-, but now RM 88+. You do the calculation for me..

Now:-

RM 88 – RM 70 = RM 18 per week

RM 18 x 4 = RM 72 per month

RM 72 x 12 = RM 864 per year <–Paying this extra!

RM 88 x 48 weeks = RM 4224

Previous:-

RM 70 x 48 weeks = RM 3360

The Government knew that all the drivers and bikers will not be happy with this, so they came out a strategy. What strategy? Rebate for 2.0cc and below car. RM680+ NOT PER MONTH! IS PER YEAR! so lets do some calculation again.

RM 685 / 12 = RM 57 per month

What I’m fueling up my car:-

RM 88 x 4 weeks = RM 352 per month

RM 352 – RM 57 (rebate) = RM 295 per month <– I need to pay!

RM 57 / 4 weeks = RM 14.25 per week

RM 88 – RM 14.25 = RM 73.25 per week <– I need to pay!

With the calculation above.. Previous I pump 1 week is RM 70 and now is RM 88, I pay extra RM 18 per week! RM 18 we can do a lot of stuff with it. Here I would like to educate all Malaysian how is the calculation.. and some pictures that I downloaded from some website and some I snap during my TWO hours of TRAFFIC JAM!!!! to a PETROL STATION!!!!


MY Birthday @ Melaka, “All We Can Eat Day!”

June 4, 2008

Dear Friends & Families,
I really don’t know what I like to write during the night time. I think all my senses come into one at this time. Well like I promised you all last time that I’ll write up some details that I did during my birthday this year. Getting another year older really terrifying. :)

Well, let me see.. where should I start first. I woke up around 12 noon on 23rd May 2008. Got myself a quick clean up and my girl girl was packing the clothes. Really “hang fuk” glad if she will always do this for me for the rest of my life. Muaks! We move out from our place in Puchong, Selangor around 12.30 noon. Then I drove down to Melaka on PLUS highway. I’m very happy and excited because I have made this day is all we can eat day so it will eat eat eat all the way.. HAhA! On the way to down to Melaka..we stop by a rest stop to get my car Refueled and my girl bought some sandwiches and drinks. She bought me an egg sandwiches with cheese or hams. I forgotten.. as long it taste good.. Well I really don’t like bread that store in the fridge. The texture will be hardened due to refrigeration. After swallow down the sandwiches.

Move..move! honk! honk! don’t want get anyone blocking my road. Although there is three lane.. ;) Sometimes people in Malaysia are road hoggers. Sky was shinning brightly.. but when I was approaching to Nilai, the sky start raining but it just awhile. God Bless!

Reach Melaka toll around 2pm then drove to the hotel and check-in, this time they got my reservation and this time there is a bell boy open the glass door for us even offer to carry our luggage to our room. Too bad we only have one bag on that day. Should give them some complement. This time got me more that standard room. I got myself a Super Deluxe room. The room got a King size bed and other necessities. The hotel I’m mentioning is the Grand Continental. The environment stills the same from the previous visit. This time I stay in the 8 floor. The room quality.. So-so, even they have do some renovation or refurbishment but still didn’t meet my expectation. I think I rather go somewhere else next time.

After got our luggage into our room, then we travel to the clock tower. We park around the area. It was around 4pm; we quickly get down from our car and walk to a chicken rice shop. It is very famous among the locals and even the shop has got into a food program. In Melaka, what should eat?

Sure must be the chicken rice ball. I ordered chicken rice ball, vegetables, steam chicken and drinks for two persons. The shop looks very old in design but the interior is totally refurbished, it makes us feel comfortable as if we’re having our lunch at our own hometown. The aunty selling the chicken rice ball is very nice person.

 

I thought she just can speak mandarin and hokkien, but it turns out she can even speak good English. After finish our lunch, we down to Jonker Street and have some sightseeing. It was around 5pm, we when to a Cendol stall that sells Nyonya Cendol. How is the taste? Excellent! It has a lot of “gula melaka” and the cendol is different from what I took back home.

 The boss of the Nyonya Cendol stall has a lot of antics. We got to know from the seller that his boss likes to collect stuff and is not for sale. We found out that the boss likes to collect CoKE! Look at the picture yourself. There are more where I didn’t upload.

Before we make our next pit stop, we head to the previous shop that we have Ais Kacang or ABC. The shop got a little renovation. Too bad on that day, they didn’t made many flavors of cheese tart. I still remember that during the previous visit we took mint and a mango flavor cheese tart. This time around we just took ABC. The ABC still feels the same. The ice is smooth and this time there is lot of “gula melaka” in it.

Before, we drive to a Kim Cheong, (I might get the name wrong) to get some stuff for my family and colleagues, we drop by the Melaka tourist info center. We got ourselves a map. My girl girl says that this map is more updated compare to what we have in our hands. Then we head to the shop I mention earlier and bought the biscuits, durian cake and etc. Total up I have spend around RM130 on the food in the shop itself. Then around 6.30pm we head down to the Portuguese settlement to have our dinner.

This time we have our dinner from different shop. It just a few tables from the previous visit.. We were still full on that time so we didn’t order much. We ordered hokkien mee, 2pieces of chicken wings, fried sotongs, baked fish, apple juice and a fresh coconut drink. Having dinner at the seaside is fantastic and romantic. Even there is some nice people playing guitar at the background. After awhile they went off the people play some songs on the player. I think is some Christian song.

While having our dinner, listening to music, watching the sunsets and listening to seas rush to shore. Is so romantics but the romantics cut short because my girl girl afraid there is tsunami, because we watch the water increasingly moving forward. After got our butt out from there we went to catch a movie. We went to GSC Melaka to watch “IRONMAN”. The show is nice! I give 5 stars out of 5. Totally awesome. After the movie, we want to find our car which parked outside the open air car park takes a long time and walk. Thanks for the complex shut most of the doors. We reach our hotel around 11pm and we head into our room and call a day off. The next morning we woke around 9+ and we head down to the lobby to get our breakfast. Most of the food is gone. I think because there are many people at the earlier time. I can’t believe they have this fried egg for order where there are few types of fillings. I took three.. Added some mushrooms and cheese. After our breakfast we went back to our room and she took a nap and I read my newspaper and watching cartoon on TV. Around 12 noon we check out and head back home.
