We shall meet again.


Top : Philomina Lighter. Been friends for the last 12 years.
I call her "The Accountant" , cause she will always be the one who handles our budgeting when we hang out.

Mid : Thomas Shanon. Been friends for the las 12 years.
"The Joker." It's hard to bring down to have a serious conversation.

Bottom. Dominic Lian. Been friends for the last 7 years.
"Roach". Simply because he hates cockroaches. Oh, and he can really play the guitar and the piano. Basically, my partner in music.

Miss them.

To me, they define the meaning of best friends. The people to turn to when there's other wall to talk to.

They're just awesome.

Have a nice day peeps!

"The Long Day Is Over"

After a long and tiring day, this is the perfect song to make you feel satisfied and complimented. 

It can sometimes stir a melancholic feeling, brings up those nostalgic moments..

In other words, it's just a beautiful song to end cool down your hard day..

Norah Jones can often make me feel dreamy and transcends me away from here for a while..

This song lasts for 2:45 and consists of only 33 words. Yet, it's magical.


Feeling tired 
By the fire 
The long day is over 

The wind is gone 
Asleep at dawn 
The embers burn on 

With no reprise 
The sun will rise 
The long day is over

Hubby claims wife raped by ‘invisible man’

From todays StarOnline


A MAN has claimed that his wife was raped by an “invisible man”, Sin Chew Daily reported.
The youth, in his 20s, said his wife would remove her clothing, touch her own body and moan while sleeping at night, since a month ago.
He sought help from a me- dium, who then told him that someone had used black magic to take away the wife's “soul” and rape her.
The couple, from Bintulu, Sarawak, lodged a police report but the cops could not do anything to arrest the “invisible man”.

I'm so proud to be from Bintulu!!
Have a nice day peeps!

Engineering Drawing.

Can someone make love engineering drawing?

"It's all up to you"
"No one can help you but yourself"
"What's drawing?"
"Engineers draw?"
"Since when do engineers know how to draw?"

It's when science meet art. Or rather, logic.

Somehow, the engineering part just doesn't seem to find it's way to my artistic side.

Even the ruler can be confusing.

"Eh, itu jurutera ada klas melukis ah? Saya tidak pandai guna itu pembaris buat garis. Nak pakai yang cm ka Inch punya tepi untuk buat itu garis?"

It's not that I hate drawing so much. It's the tediousness that I have to go through when doing the task. It's more like precision drawing.

"Eh, kalau 1cm sama dengan 10mm , 1mm sama dengan berapa inci leh?"

It's time consuming.

"Rex, it's been a week since you passed the deadline to submit your tutorial. Have you started drawing?"
"Draw?"

And I really can't picture and know what to draw.

"Rex, you draw this lines joining here and there. Then you extend the line so that it meets here. After that you must draw the dimensions and stat here. After finishing that, write down your name in this column and proceed to draw a curve here after you've done drawing the line in mm that is not more than what the rule states so that you can get marks if you draw correctly"
"Okay. I understand that part, sir. But when do I start drawing?"

I don't know. I just don't like to draw. Adding salt to wound, I have to do it neatly, which is an aspect I've kept hidden deep in my inner core, never to be found again.

"Rex! Why your work so messy?"
"Are all good engineers neat and tidy, sir?"

I just don't want to fail or get just a minimum pass for this subject.

I haven't started using AutoCAD yet.

Don't know what will happen then.

Have a nice day peeps!

Green light means pretty colour in the sky?

Why do some people slow down when the traffic light is green?

Just to make sure that the traffic light doesn't turn yellow ah?
So that you have enough time to decide to accelerate or to brake ah?

So annoying la some people in traffic.

Fortunately, Lite.fm is constantly playing an ad that goes something like this :

"It's easy to lose your temper on the road. Like when someone suddenly cuts your lane or someone threw an egg at your windshield or even maybe even a police officer pulling you over in the middle of traffic to ask for directions to the nearest 7Eleven. In no circumstances must you resort to violence and knock down the motorcyclist who knocked your side mirror while overtaking you."

Something like that la. Can't remember the whole thing.

So I just had to join the car in front of me, cruising down the road while admiring the beautiful greenery of the traffic light.

Haiya. If the traffic light is still green, you don't have to slow down to take picture of the traffic light and twitpic it just to tell your friends you've waited your whole life for it to happen.

Green means go.
Yellow means pedal to the meta.
And red? You can go head la if you want to meet your maker early.

Drive safe.
And SMART.


Have a nice day peeps!

"A Circle That Doesn't Quite Meet"


An awesome interview with a great man of science and music. Love Brian May.

The Grand Design by Stephen Hawking And Leonard Mlodinow


I remember buying "A Briefer History Of Time" a couple of years ago ; it's an updated version of Hawking's bestselling "A Brief History of Time"; a book by Hawking and Mlodinow. And I was really fascinated by the contents of the book as it made look at the universe in a whole different perspective, a perspective I never knew existed!

The manner in which Hawking explained briefly about how science have evolved throughout the many centuries was just alluring and despite my busy schedule then, I was able to able to finish the book within a few days.

And just last year, both Hawking and Mlodinow produced another new book, which similarly tackle the most common question asked by Hawking "Is there a need for a divine being in the creation of the universe?" . His idea of the beginning of time certainly opposes my religious beliefs, but the curiosity I have in what he has to say just made have to buy this book, only with an open mind.\

I got this book a few weeks ago, but only recently manage to find time to indulge in this book. I know I won't be disappointed.



What is reality?
