岁数还是个数 ?

今天的行程不在我的计划当中, 只是心里觉得'回报'一下我姐昨天和我一起到Putrajaya的遥远路程, 那就顺水人情, 陪她去一趟医院探望她的一个客户. （她很kia hantu 的, 从来不敢独自到医院, 而且这次还是要去那个高级监护病房, 就是差一步就要到 ICU 的那个)

那个客户oh, 很大只一下. 如果你知道 Ah Tam 这个人, 大概就他那样子.

我们离开的时候接近 4 点了, 问了医生他的状况. 医生说他是中了蚊症, 再加上血液里被老鼠尿感染,所以导致咳嗽出血, 但是情况还算 stabil





然后呢, guess what?








傍晚 6 点多的时候, 我姐接到那个客户表弟的电话, 说医生告诉他通知他的家人, 因为他已经昏迷不醒了, 让他家人有心理准备 !!!

就那两个多小时的时间, 他的病情竟然急转直下, 完全意识昏迷了, 内脏出血, 脑部也出血.... stabil 突然变成这样, 恐怖吧. 不知道是医生的问题, 还是真的时辰已到?


到了明天傍晚, 我姐接到电话, 他过世了.


36岁, 大只雷雷, 就这样去了. 曾经听过句话:'躺在里面的, 不是以岁数在算, 而是以个数在算.'
所以呢, 人生真的不过如此, 没人知道什么时候就是那个时候.




阿弥陀佛, 希望他一路好走.

cuti 1 minggu, tapi manyak sibuk... part 2

OK, after plate number, I move on to a very difficult issue that I had been dragging for many many months.

It's about submit the LAD claim to the tribunal office.
Bought an apartment at year 2003, was abandoned for few years, luckily IJM had take over and finally it delivered the keys by end of year 2010. See, it took total 7 years, which means 4 years later than the promised delivery date!!

Actually before this, I had send the developer a mail asking about this thing, and they replied that asked me to wait till Apr 2012 before any action, bcoz they need to settle some other thing b4 come to this late delivery compensation and etc. I am kind like believe it lah, but after read from the FB group of this apartment, they already some people submitted and do get their case win against the developer, which there is a 'court order' that the developer will pay them back money in a scheduled way, so, I decided to submit it lor.

The tribunal office is at Putrajaya, the one at Damansara is moved to this location already.

I hope you don't need to go thru the same process, bcoz this really not meaning any good to us. But if you need it, here is the basic info for you to proceed.

The office address is:
Tribunal Tuntutan Pembeli Rumah (TTPR)
Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan
No. 51, Persiaran Perdana,
Presint 4, 62100 Putrajaya,

03-8891 4758/4774/4746

Go to 1st floor for the counter service, you should get queue number that in range of 5xxx, it is counter 8 & 9.

The officer will guide us to fill in the Borang I there, just please make sure you had photocopy of these:
1. S&P
2. VP (surat penyerahan milikan kosong)
3. Handling of keys
4. Sijil layak Menduduki (CF)
5. Surat notis tuntutan (the letter that you wrote to the developer, I used the one replied from developer instead)

The officer is friendly enough to guide us on filling up the details. It need the signature of all buyers as state in the S&P, so, if you bought a house with somebody else, it is better both of you go at the same time, else you may need travel so far again to submit it.

Then there are 4 copies of the Borang 1:
1. One is submitted to the tribunal office
2. One to send the AR register mail to the developer (penentang)
3. One to submit to bank, that we get loan from. This one cannot send to the branch lor, then I travel so far to KL only to get a acknowledgment stamp on my own copy, imagine ah, travel 45 mins, then gao dim in 3 mins...
4. And last one I keep myself lah.

Total fee: RM 10 SAHAJA !!

Now, is waiting for tribunal to send me letter so that to attend a hearing between us (penuntut) vs developer (penentang), then it should come into an agreement about the compensation amount.

I can tell you that the total is about 40K + if follow the calculation provided by the tribunal office, but, I heard the maximum amount the people manage to claim is between 10-13K ++ so far, wish me good luck lah :)

cuti 1 minggu, tapi manyak sibuk...

Company forced leave this week -> I am enjoying the 1 week + break since 24 Dec.

But, this is really a very busy week, I had been busy traveling here and there to settle my personal thing.

First, I went to JPJ to register plate number myself. Why don't get those runner do it? Well, few points lah:
1. Money lor, got to pay extra 100+ for the runner fee
2. Since I am off, i have time
3. I want to know how it works too

So, after Google around, found a blogger share her experience on doing herself at Wangsa Maju branch, honestly, Wangsa Maju sound a bit scary to me, I totally no idea about this area.

Luckily after ask around, my brother told there is a branch in Salak South. Then found that it's near to LRT station, so, my destination is set!

Walked about 10 mins from the Salak South LRT Station, sweat a lot due to naik tangga...

Counters start at 2 p.m sharp, quite efficient, queue number is jumping fast. Finally is my turn. And I can tell you, I got to approach this officer for 3 times! Not bcoz she is working slow, but the number in my list was all sold out. -_- !!

many many numbers...

OK lah, finally after about 1.5 hours of ding ding dong dong, i got my number lah. So, if you would like to try yourself next time, here's some tips:

1. Find the JPJ nearest to you:
- You must be careful about the state of it, as the alphabet is assigned as per the branch location, I means W?? is for KL; B?? is for Selangor

2. Prepare a list of number you like, yes, you need a LIST of number!

3. very important -> you CAN buy advance number
- For e.g. when I was there, the running number is in 2xxx range. But, it does not means I can't try 3xxx, 4xxx, 7xxx those bigger number
- I am not sure about the alphabet though, means mine is WWE, but I am not sure if I can ask for WWF

4. For some special number, i.e. 8811, 1188, so call hot number, you will need to submit tender for it -> bid with the amount you willing to pay, you will get it if you are the one that bid with the highest price

5. And last most important point, RM 210 is the total cost I paid to JPJ. This is the minimum amount to get a plate number.

非常不想, 但是不行!

哎哟, 又要星期一了

周六之前打算在家赶点东西, 哪知光阴如梭在这两天体现的特别完美, 很快现在已是周日晚上10点了, 而我的那点东西还是呆在原点.....

好吧, 吃了羊肉咖哩回来才开始吧

好多好多年不在家工作的'原则'在我拖三拖四的态度下, 被逼破格了! md...只能怪自己

Polo is coming to my house

OK, I made the move!

Should be able to get the car soon, as it is only pending on the process thing, the car was ready to pick up anytime.

Am now listing out plate number to make the Polo TSI come to my house before new year

Ya, honestly, I'm feeling a bit exciting with it :)

alamak!

This Google+ is making me crazy, I couldn't even find a way to post a blog with photo from my album!!

i don't have good user experience with it $%@#%$@#%^&


OH!!! I think I found a way, I'm being confused by the Google+, I should have go to the picasa web !! Let me try.

ah ha! Sometime I feel I really smart lah, hehe
So, lesson learnt: don't get fancy & panic with all kind of new stuff. 淡淡定定有钱净 (got to read in Cantonese then got nice tune lah)

Really, so far I am still quite reluctant for G+, think to 'un-join' it, but don't know how to do it yet..

晕...

本来我睡得好好的, 8点开始倒在床上, 一会儿就睡着了. 我是打算来个周末睡觉大餐的!

哪知夜半 11.30, 我姐突然敲响我房门, 然后说:'Eh, 怎样, 我这身衣服好看不?"
她刚喝完喜酒回来, 我放工到家时, 没遇上她, 所以她想争取下我的意见, 虽然一般上我们的taste都不会走到一起

我.......
说真的, 我真有点吓到, 因为衣服的颜色比较沉, 没带眼镜的我就只看到黑黑的一整套站在我门前.
md. 我真的睡的很沉了, 然后看到酱, 我没喊上三声已经很厉害了

然后, 现在搞到我睡不着了.....

这篇是要来赞扬我那些不一般的朋友的

咳咳...绝对不是我们的关系不一般, 而是他们的人生很不一般

首先, 两个基督的朋友
一个, 好像是教会里青年团的领导层, 很努力的为青年们付出. 看到他FB里活跃的活动, 很感动他竟然踏出了这步, 而且坚持了好多好多年. 我们认识于中六, 那两年, 他是我们班班长. 好像还是校里的风头人物. 怎么办呢? 谁叫他书读得好, 样子还长得帅, 想想也是应该的吧.
最后, 我们虽然进了同一所大学, 但是科系不一样, 而且真的不很熟, 见面只是点头招呼的关系, 慢慢地都不见面了. 关于他的近况, 我都是到他FB里看看的. 难能可贵的是, 结婚有小孩了, 还是那么热忱于教会工作, 我想他真的很努力的为社会付出他所能付出的东西, 真的很好！

另外一个, 失去联系更久了. 小学同学, 现在只通过FB看看大家的状况.
一直以来, 他好像都为老人院, 孤儿院做义工. 最近, 还跟他志同道合的一群音乐朋友们, 搞了个慈善演唱会. walao eh, 真的很了不起啊！虽然我最后没参加, 但是我觉得总有一天我会到场给他掌声的, 我很佩服他这方面的努力.


然后, 一个佛教朋友
他是大学同学. 不是那么活跃于FB的更新. 但是隐约从别人分享的图片当中, 看到他也是个很活跃的义工分子.
他在我们非常稀有的同学聚会中, 从来不提起这些关于他自己的这些活动. 我觉得他是很低调的好人.
如果有一天我当面告诉他:'你很好oh, 跟一群人做着那么有意义的东西'. 不知道他会不会脸红, 感觉上他是个挺害臊的人. 哎呀, 说说而已啦, 我也不是那么会当面称赞人的人, 刚刚那句, 我自己都觉得像挪揄多过像称赞 -_-!!


然后, 一个女同乡
小学同学, 一直到现在, 认识了有20多年的时间了, 哎, 光阴如梭啊!
她, 竟然变了个作词家neh. 最近要和她同学们开音乐会了. walao eh, 也是个不简单的人物啊!!!!
虽然她还没给到专业的程度, 但是, 有自己的梦想, 然后踏出那一步去实现它, 到最后看到小有所成, 已经很了不起了, 不是吗?!
真的很抱歉, 她的音乐会这次我也不会到场. 希望有一天, 我可以看看她们这群创作人的真面目.


再然后, 两个很厉害烹饪的女人.
她们的食谱很不简单, 什么cake, 什么烧肉, 什么黄酒鸡, 什么猪脚醋, 总之, 只要她们孩子或老公喜欢的食物, 她们都能serve上餐桌. 真tmd的神奇女人.


我发现我真的需要慢慢, 仔细观察身边的人. 他们都好像身怀绝技, 只需要一个触机, 他们就会变得很不一般.


oh, btw, 我也是很不一般的.
我非常能废话连篇, 前提是心情还不错的时候.
为了能追赶一下身边朋友的不凡能耐, 我想可能应该改进一下, 就是到那种即使心中很不爽, 还是能把人都搞得笑呵呵的那种人, 俗称小丑 :D

我的能耐, 就这样吧. (*^__^*)

乐极生悲? not really the right words

after so many trophy, fall in sick on the next day.

feeling cold, a little bit of diarrhea, think is like 感冒.
bcoz after that run, sweat a lot, and the weather is cold after rain.

anyway, no worry. i recover very very fast, thanks to the 西川散.
1 packet, then wrapped myself with 2 layer of blanket, after 2 hours, start to sweat. so, it's consider ok already.

but, my laziness is not cure by it yet. had stopped jogging for 1 week plus now.

i need to start again!!

so many trophy, hehe

look at this, i feel like very childish way of praising myself :)

2011-11-18, achievements~~

this is the miCoach application that I used to keep track my jogging track record, it's now 2.5 months, and only today, finally i had break the 5 km limit, feeling damn tired -> 6.35 km; 06:51 km/h, not bad huh

b4 using this application, i was thought i able to run 8 km.
but i am totally wrong, in fact the distance i used to run few years back is only about 5 km. thru the miCoach, i realized that i had over-estimate myself in past few years!!

so, still long way to go.
hope i will maintain this practice
hope i will reach 8 km, then 10 km
hope i will finish 10 km within 60 mins
really, long long way to go

哎哟...

天啊, 又下大雨了

我4点有个dentist appointment leh

难道要取消 ?
这个 dentist 很 geng 的, 一个 appointment 通常要等上两个月....

我不知道它什么时候会过去

它总是突然袭击

有时关灯睡觉时
有时正忙着工作
有时正看着MV
有时正看着某些文字

无关天气
无关时间
无关地点
无关周遭环境

突然的, 它就走进脑袋


然后,
有时摇摇头, 它就过去了
有时会比较久, 眼泪会自己掉下来
有时更久, 难过得睡不着

看到那个接近的日期, 更加容易被袭
感觉很难形容, 就是觉得很不爽, 不是生气的那种不爽, 就心里很烦的不爽...

然后,
我真的觉得, 以后我不会跟别人说: 节哀
因为真的不管用
因为它不是一时的哀, 它会是永远永远的一道疤...

rain rain rain...

请了一天假, 可是哪儿都去不了 :(

下午试着出去一趟, 结果是目的没达到, 但是淋得不算太湿, 却也不能穿着那身衣服去逛街, 最后还是倒头回家了....哎, 这绵绵细雨无尽天啊, 这种天气还是呆在公司工作好, 至少没浪费我的leave嘛...

离心又起

离心又起
'梦想'拉扯 (我都怀疑能不能算梦想....最多好像只是一个目标...）
良心挣扎
徒增烦恼

是的, after many many years, 我还是对我自己能做的东西有种期待, 总有个欲望想要试试那个所谓的更上一层楼的技术挑战, 老是觉得还差好远好远, 好多年了, 还是在原地踏步....
但是我也有点开始怀疑自己的 commitment 还有没有那么强. 挑战不是一般的少, 而且我已经不是那么耐劳了, 有时容易觉得头皮发麻, 脑袋晕晕

哎, 要不要踏出第一步已经让我多了好多根白发啊

如果慢慢咬的话

刚和我姐, 还有大哥喝茶回来

话说, 大哥叫了nasi lemak, 那个椰浆饭真的很不错, 很香 + 很松软 + 不油

我姐很早就说了, 她很饱. 所以只拿了个小碟来尝尝味道.

但是....吃啊吃的, 我哥觉得那饭好像很少了, 就说:'要不要加饭啊? 好像不太够'

我姐说: '够的, 如果慢慢咬的话, 会够吃的'

我重复了她那句: '是的, 如果慢慢咬的话'

然后她自己笑抽了, 她说怎么酱你也发觉我想说什么 :D

I am a donor now, are you?

Donor card

At first was thought of all organs, but as I read from an article that the eyes may be taken out and put some cotton inside, then sew the eye lids if I do donate the eyes.
Hmm... I think that will look quite scary to the friends that come and say good bye to me at that day, so I had not tick this option.

But it may be my wrong understanding from a mis-leading article, I will have to check more. If nothing look scary after all, I think all of my body that can be used should be given to those people that need it.

this is not an easy task...

learning to use the miCoach application lah

Lot's of questions,
Got to plan the workout?
Got to plan what to do and when and how long ?

I'm start to feel sleepy after browse thru the miCoach website. =_=
Very powerful website, need a powerful brain too.

And I am stupid enough to wonder if I didn't subscribe to the mobile's data plan, will the GPS incurred additional cost if I switch this miCoach on?

Am thinking why need to be so complicated leh, need to plan some more. After plan so much, mm I able to execute the plan ? I think this is the most big challenge for me :D

aiyo... already feeling tired even only think of it

I'm a lazy person that would like to go with my heart one :p
I will try again later lah

For now, I'll keep it simple, run as long as I like, train as many times as I like :p

旺你的大头菜啦

某人觉得他爸的风水只照顾到女儿, gi li gu lu 的说着要叫师傅再做一遍好让他们 (或其实他只想着他自己 ?? ) 能够财丁两旺.

我真他妈的不明白.
如果他爸还健在的话, 他妈的他不是一世人都倒霉吗 ?
他是不是很高兴他爸死了, 然后他能搞他爸的风水, 好让自己命运变得更好 ?

我不知道风水的东西, 我只知道家里的女儿没什么老爸死后, 变得更好.
没人突然发达了, 日子还是一样的过. 她们的各自的儿子, 都已经十多岁了, 你怎么好意思说是爸的风水旺女儿. 我这还没嫁的, 最近倒霉得想死.
旺女儿, 旺你的大头菜啦!!

他是家里最不用负担任何东西的么子, 家里本来就不是什么大富人家. 所谓的家产就他一个人独享着. 他妈的他还在埋怨风水不好, 不够旺儿子, 我真的很他妈的看到他我就烦得想去死.

40多岁的人, 还要他妈护他护的像小宝贝一样.
护他不算, 还要他妈跟他哥千万吩咐, 要多照顾他这好儿子的儿女.

我真他妈的不明白.
为什么我自己都没给自己好过, 我要去照顾别人的孩子?
如果你是真的有财务困难, OK, 我接受.
但是你就厚着脸皮, 老说自己没钱没钱.
然后在那算着算着你的所谓xx岁之前要有yy钱的目标快达到, 这叫没钱?

家里有钱没钱, 你妈最怕你饿到.
到钟到点饭热菜热, 虽然不是什么山珍海味, 但是比起你外面那些兄弟姐妹, 真找不到一个比你好命的.

真他妈的, 原来骂着他妈, 就是骂着我娘

真想死

她很穷的

电视播着几年前的King Kong, 就是那个恐龙也有出现的那个
我之前没看, 话说换到这台时, 刚好是那个女主角穿着sexy睡衣被恐龙猛追的画面

看着看着, 我真的忍不住了
问了我外甥 ( 他 13 岁了) :"你说这女主角干嘛穿着睡衣满街跑啊?"

他答了句 : "她很穷的"
我蒙了, 再问 : "什么??"
他认真的放慢速度重复一遍 : “真的, 开始的时候说了, 这女的很穷, 所以穿得很少"

哈哈, 果然还是小孩一个哪

好大的雨啊~~

离开office时, 雨停了.
哪知道到半路时, 雨又下大了. 想到反正淋得七七八八, 就不理它继续回家

这次的感觉就像把自己丢进洗衣机里来个full wash, 除了戴着gok帽的头发没湿, 里里外外, 上上下下真的是滴水成河 :-)

Old Klang Road 和 Jalan Puchong 下雨时到处积水,迟点回, 我觉得可能会淹水leh....

无论如何, 能够平安到家已是万幸鸟.
要念念佛号: 阿弥陀佛

:p

The long week almost ends...

Gosh, time flies, already Thursday

I wish I have another week of vacation just like this.

Best thing I did is that I control the hours I sleep, I'm trying to back to normal track.

Did jogging 3 times so far, still far from what I used to be, especially today, I think I'm just out of mood doing it, I can't keep myself going further as compare to 2 days ago.

Did finished a story book . Very nice book, interesting to follow that keep me flipping page by page. And in fact, I only found out that it is a 3 series of book that make it call after read till almost half of the book.
So, I started the 2nd one this week, . Seriously, this book keep me reading on it, it used easy English which I can understand, and sometimes surprise that it could be write in such a way. If you like crime fiction kind of story, check this out. Well, you can come and get the one I had read, I'm just keeping it at the bookshelf afterward, I think it's good that if the book can be shared with other :)

Oh ya, I went for a movie too. With my nephew, the Cars 2. Childish ?? Surprisingly, it's much better than I thought, I enjoyed it

会 gok 到 的 meh ?

我姐的思维很不简单

话说我想买个床架, 让她给我意见.
看到个木制的挺好, 就问她怎么样.

她竟然答说: "不要, 不要, 木的很硬, gok到会很痛"

我...想了很久, 还是不明白为什么会gok到.
它只是床架eh, 如果不是我自己 hum 头埋床, 真的没有什么情况下会敲到的啊....

hmmmmm....

坐着motor去朋友的banglo

有个老朋友喜获千金, 二十年朋友啊, 二十年还能联络见面, 很不简单

和其他几个约好了去Rantau看她和baby.
周日起来个大早, 先和同是住在Puchong的朋友集合, 然后再坐她车出发.

厉害吧, 有heart吧 ^.^

然后hor, 我今天的主题是坐着motor去朋友的banglo
去的时候, 心里很pai seh, 就感觉好像怪怪的

哎...真是有点失败啦, 工作那么多年, 还是破破烂烂的样子出现在朋友面前. 有时真的见一次面, 惭愧一次.

她们都很好的, 很多都是老板娘的身份, 日子越过越好.
难得的是每个还是当初的样子, 没有因为她们驾着豪车, 住在豪宅, 而变了样, 而疏远了我们这些比较起来, 真的没啥身份的朋友.

有时有些这么样的朋友, 很不错.
久久见次面, kua la kua la 说着有的没的, update那个谁跟那个谁的status, 她们还是跟以前一样, 很搞笑的 :D

废话一则

很搞笑一下

女同志们, 要是有男的批评你的cup size

跟他说, 我这是像我爸, 行不？

你那像你妈吗?

:D

雨天

凌晨 01.30, 外面好大好大的倾盆大雨....
希望明天起床时雨停了, 天晴了

最近都是雨天, 尤其是下班时间. 记得驾车小心, 慢慢来, 还是会到家的

希望大家出入平安



哎, 其实心里有点懒, 好不好明天装病啊~~~~

downloading with 'decent' speed

Just found that the uTorrent download has the 'decent' speed as mentioned by WK.
~ 70 KbS

I think this depends on the popularity, also the timing could be another factor.
Generally, evening time till 01:00 a.m would be very slow speed, <= 10 KbS, but after 02:00, the speed goes up. And this ~ 70 KbS is happen during early after time, I guess could be the network not too 'jam' at this moment, as this is not the golden time to suft net.

anyway, this is just my wild guess...

(i'm subscribed to 2 MB package)

tmd

最近我老是这疼那疼

前阵子背疼的穿衣转身也痛苦
然后是右手腕疼得不能轻易转动
现在是颈项疼, 可能是落枕了

疼得我很烦, 真是tmd老态龙钟提前报到?

ggrrrr!!!!

哎哟...

我的天, 一直藏在心里的炸弹今天终于被朋友的FB开始露出毛头鸟, 都是好久好久以前很funny 和ugly的照片, 我都把自己的存在箱子里的最底层了, 朋友竟然post了上去, 还tag了我.

话说回来, 朋友在照片里挺好看的, 难怪她不介意和别人分享

anyway, 怎么可以防止别人tag我是目前的紧急任务!!!


oo..还好, 很快看到option鸟, 希望是我要的'效果'

good nite lah, 很晚很晚了...
有时很讨厌自己, 每天都在晚睡, 迟上班, 晚下班, 睡'晚觉', 晚睡觉的恶性循环中...

Torrent download with streamyx - port forwarding

OK, firmware updated.

Follow the tips found by Google to configure the port forwarding.

Port forwarding

The port here is the port configured in the uTorrent.


BUT....the speed is only about 10+ kbs :( :( :(
Any idea what might be wrong?

Oh, just saw WK comments on my earlier post, said Unifi worst is 200 kbs, make me 'sum yuk yuk'.

I just upgrade to this 1M package neh...

It's about home internet setting again - part 2

As expected, home internet was down after I update the firmware.

Always forgot some details on the setting, so I think it's good I post some screen shot for my own reference if there is any upgrade next time (*^__^*)

1. Get latest firmware from DLink support web site: DLink Support, search for the model: DSL-2640B

DSL-2640B firmware download

2. Re-configure router after update. Go to: http://192.168.1.1/. Login is now change to: admin/admin

3. Internet setup: make sure the following are entered. Restart router, and it's connected to the world :)

Internet setup - 1

Internet setup - 2

Internet setup - 3

It's about home internet setting again

Using uTorrent 3.0, download speed is only about 5-6 KB/s.

I thought I subscribed 1 M package??!!

Definitely needs to Google around for better solution. And found that needs to update the DLink router firmware that installed by TM so that I can enjoy the better torrent download speed.

So... I am again need to change this router setting.

Hopefully nothing goes wrong, else I may have to be out of internet for days before come back.

wish me good luck!

感动

这人应该已经在网络上很红很红了, 是我的后知后觉, 一直无视有关他的America Idol上的新闻

今天click进朋友在FB里的share link, 很不好意思, 我竟然听着听着, 眼眶湿了...
然后看到他那本来很漂亮的未婚妻车祸后脑部严重受伤后的样子, 一滴眼泪流了下来.
是的, 就一滴 :D


很不错的一首歌, 唱得很感人, 希望你也喜欢 :)

安娣

今天照常去爬山了. 途中遇到一小孩, 10岁来的吧, 和他一群朋友在我前面走啊走, 然后他们决定停下等等他们的家人, 便坐在路中间的树干上.

小孩很有礼貌hor. 看到我走来了, 马上说：安娣, 安娣, 来我让你先过 ~

我也是很有礼貌的. 我说：靓仔, thank you 啊

那个小孩很不好意思; 其实我想告诉他, 听到他叫我安娣, 我也很不好意思

哎, 不到你不认啦, 我们这年纪的, 真的是安娣级了.
如果真有小孩叫了你一声 uncle 或 aunt, 不要太伤心har

去爬山啦

周日去爬山啦, 不是很 challenge 的那种.
爬得很慢, 但是总算完成.

曾经我去爬那 Kepong Frim 山的时候, 到半山呼吸不到, 没能爬玩就往回头下了. 所以这次我也想会不会再次历史重演.

还好比我想象中好多了 :)
至少完成了, 至少肌肉不是很酸痛.
毕竟时隔我上一次运动也有快一年的时间了, 事实证明之前的运动还是改进了我的体力不少滴

希望这周末能爬得快些, 再快些!

哈哈, 阿凤重新开始运动啦~\(≧▽≦)/

哦, 给 Puchong 的朋友知道, 这山在Wawasan, 很多人都是一家人去爬的, 最小的可能就那10岁左右, 所以你可以想象它的难度有'多高'

找天我们山上见, 怎么样 ?

:)

换 look 啦!

突然不想看着黑黑沉沉的博客, 所以花了近2个小时, 把图拉长变矮的, 试这试那的, 终于换了个新装.

嘿! 怎么样? 阳光普照的, 希望我写的时候会是开心的, 更希望各位看官的心情是天天天晴, 天天好天 ;)

不过话说回来, 我觉得有点太亮了, 可能是刚开始不习惯 :p

选对热饮治咳嗽

身边有些朋友时常咳个不停, 听了都替他们辛苦

刚好看见这文章, 贴上分享, 希望真能‘饮'到咳除 :)

Book: 求医不如求己
Author: 严浩

又注: 内容仅供参考, 不可取代医疗行为


热咳:
感冒了, 咳嗽, 头痛, 流鼻水通通来袭, 可以用桑叶菊花甘蔗汁打败它!

那...怎么分辨热咳? 常见症状如下:
多痰呈黄色粘稠状 (有点geli hor), 容易感到口舌干燥, 喉咙疼痛, 身体发热, 大量流汗, 头痛, 头晕.

桑叶菊花甘蔗汁:
材料: 桑叶 10g, 菊花 5朵, 甘蔗汁 200cc
做法: 将桑叶和菊花先用热开水焖出味道, 捞出渣再加入甘蔗汁调匀即可 (看来还挺简单的)

寒咳:
明明天气很暖和, 身体却感觉寒冷, 咳个不停, 快喝杯沙参菊花姜母汁祛祛寒!
那...怎么知道是寒咳? 常见症状如下:
通常在夜晚咳得厉害. 痰稀白, 呈泡沫状, 常常鼻塞, 流鼻涕.
肺中有痰, 可听见气管内有类似水流哮鸣声, 严重一点的会有气喘的现象.

沙参菊花姜母汁:
材料: 沙参 10g, 菊花 10朵, 姜母汁 5cc, 黑糖适量
做法: 将沙参和菊花先用热开水焖出味道, 捞出渣再加入姜母汁调匀, 再依个人口味拌入黑糖即可.


这以下是我自己的想法:
去哪能找到桑叶, 沙参? 我想中药店铺应该有卖 (就是那些干的)
甘蔗汁, 路边摊应该能买到
姜母汁可能要自己用原材料打成汁, 这个会比较麻烦

父亲节快乐

这周末父亲节, 往年我们都是把这节和爸的生日一起庆祝的, 今年没人提起.

说实在的我从来不记得爸爸的生日日期, 因为通常我们每次都是取正日前的周末替他庆祝.
哎, 说起来我妈常complaint我们现在这些年轻人没心肝, 她们那个年代父母的生日很大的, 都会记在心里.
现在想起来, 除了回家和他们吃餐饭, 当天可以再给他们打个电话, 说声身体健康, 出入平安, 他们应该会很开心的.

哦...我想起来了, 好像是五月十五, 我记得是农历十五的, 现在是五月, 应该不会错了.
可惜, 人不在了...

只有去年录下的短片, 短片里我爸很搞笑. 吹蜡烛前, 我哥让他先起个愿, 但是他搞不懂那是什么东东, 问了我妈好多遍. 最后还是我哥握着他的手起个身体健康的愿望, 那时他刚病好不久, 所以这是我们都希望的, 不知道是不是当时忘了许上个出入平安...


ai, 希望大家父亲节快乐, 有空多回家看看, 要不打个电话也很不错

感恩

不敢说我是个好人, 但是非常感谢这世界存在着很多很多的好人.

在有的人在趁人之危而努力捞财的时候, 他们会不计成本与劳力, 用尽得一分是一分的心态, 无私的帮助素未谋面的陌生人.

真的应该向他们学习学习, 希望不久的将来， 我也可以成为能帮上别人的一小分子.

感恩, 真的非常感恩

happy lah

Was wonder why my home internet is still so slow even after I upgrade it to the 1M package.

If it's not the line problem, then I think it could be the wireless router problem.
Mine is old old model, think 5 yrs ++ back. So, I tried to install the new router that come with the TM package.

And surprisingly it really help on the wireless connection!
Previously, when I access from my room, it always show Poor; now I see the 'Excellent' ^-^
Also, my new handphone always failed to connect to the old wireless, and now it work like a charm. So maybe you can also consider to upgrade the Wifi equipment if the speed is un-reasonable slow no matter what package you have purchase (?) just my guess leh, not too sure


I'm happy with what I did.

Happy to enjoy the much faster browsing speed
Happy to have the handphone Wifi connected

And, happy that I have loooong weekend ahead me :)

Life is good lah ;)

Oh, 原来.... 教 = 教育 !

最近接触佛经比较多, 趁着午休时间, 到附近书店杂乱的'看'了几本书. 还有基于之前替爸爸往生之后念了经, 维持了下来, 虽然遍数没那时的多, 但是我现在每天像做功课似的, 念上 15,20分钟的, 感觉也不错.

今天我试着回到原点, Google 了一下 '学佛入门'.
然后, 读了这两篇文章, 真的让我突然感觉大开眼界, 原来我一直想的都不对.
佛教原来不是个宗教，佛教是一种教育， 佛陀的教育!
佛是人, 不是神!
即使我是基督教徒, 我还是可以学佛, 因为宗教跟教育是没有冲突的

就这两篇:
佛法十疑略释
普贤行愿品讲记, 净空法师讲述, 第一卷

当然, 我不会读了这两篇就得道了.
但是, 多读多看, 保持思想开放, 觉得好的, 铭记于心, 有疑惑的, 暂且忘掉.
或许某年某日, 我的想法改了变了, 到时能接受的东西又不一样了. 那时回头一看我这post, 可能也会莞尔一笑的 :)

2011.01.31, Mon

今天刚从kampung回到Puchong, 周三要回到工作岗位了

我过了一个很伤心的农历新年, 当一切看似转好时, 意外发生了, 爸爸去世了.
就在我刚从德国回到马来西亚的同一天晚上, 我真的想不到‘ah 叔, 我回来了' 会是跟我爸的遗体说的.

很后悔接到电话时没有第一时间赶回去. 心里完全没有感觉爸爸的时间已经开始倒数了, 跟家里人电话联络时, 一直以为最坏的情况是他脚断了, 没生命危险.
其实如果我能更谨慎的话, 一个78岁的老人发生motor车祸,被另外那辆motor撞断了脚, 摔了下来, 危险性是很高很高的, 但是我那天真的一点所谓的预感都没有, 心里只有担心, 没有很着急.

当我哥载着我们一车6人到芙蓉中央医院时, 我看到的是我kampung的姐哭的很厉害, 妈妈的样子很苍白, 我想这次真的完了, 晚了...

从4点接到电话, 爸爸在kampung的医院抢救了接近2个多小时, 再送到芙蓉的中央医院, 然后晚上8点10分, 医生宣布回魂乏术. 整整 4 个小时, 我想我爸给了我们足够的时间, 但是我们没好好把握, 我想他走的很伤心吧?
他会害怕吧, 孤单单一个人的在急救室.
他后悔吗, 为什么不在拐弯的时候停下等等呢

都是做儿女的不孝, 后悔改变不了什么. 真的太晚了...

2011.01.31 是一个让我终身遗憾的日子

Stupid me!

Waiting for the taxi pickup.

Did the last minute shopping yesterday, and I did a very stupid & expensive mistake :(

At first I thought I get a very very good deal, who knows I bought a strange 2 layer wok, really feeling want to cry 欲哭无泪啊~~~~

Lesson learn are:
- never do thing at the last day.
- don't think it is a good deal when see there is big different in price for the 'same' thing in a shop (well, stupid me thought it was the price tag mistake, i have bad intention lah). Always checks very careful on the thing going to buy, open the box, feel it, then only pay it

哎......心疼啊
The wok cost 90 Euro, means RM 360.
And I may need to buy another one if it's required when back to Malaysia, heard it cost over 1000 for the stainless steal

I try to convince myself it's OK for single person cookin, try to make myself feeling a little bit better lah, but hor, doesn't work so much leh

Will post photo of it when I back to MY.

Dinner DIY - Fried potatoes with onions

Tried some other cooking these few weeks.

For once, I was crazy about caramelized onions taste, which is sweet.
At first, I was cooking the fried potatoes that favor by the caramelized onions.
Very simple preparation, need only potatoes that cut in equal size slices, onions, butter, and some salt. Cook them separately, the caramelized take very long time to prepare, 20-30 mins because it needs to be slow cooking.

Frying potato slices

Slow cook onions

gao dim!

The first try doesn't looks very attractive, a little bit dry & tasteless too

So, 2nd time, it's much better :)

2nd try

But hor, the quality is remains the same after this leh. It is just OK to eat, far far from taste good :p

CakePHP - installation

After PHP & Apache HTTP Server installation is done, I continue the setup with CakePHP.

So, my environment is:
1. Windows XP
2. Apache 2.2
3. PHP Version 5.3.4
4. CakePHP 1.3.6: Downloaded from here CakePHP 1.3.6.zip

And here is my directory structures:
1. Apache: D:/Apps/Apache2.2, I will refer this as <apache_web_server>
2. PHP: D:/Apps/PHP, I will refer this as <php.directory>
3. CakePHP: D:/Apps/cakephp_1_3_6, I will refer this as <cakephp.directory>

Configuration changes in Apache httpd.conf
Step 1) Make sure this line is there, and un-commented:
------------------------------------------------------
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
------------------------------------------------------

Step 2) Update the document root to the <cakephp.directory>. For e.g. in my case, it will be as follow:
------------------------------------------------------
DocumentRoot "D:/Apps/cakephp_1_3_6"
------------------------------------------------------

Step 3) Make sure the option to overwrite is enabled
------------------------------------------------------
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
# Order deny,allow
# Deny from all
</Directory>
------------------------------------------------------

(Re)Start the Apache web server, try to access the application by: http://localhost/index.php, you should see a page as follow:

PHP loaded succesfully!

I faced some errors during setup, here are some that I can remember:
Problem 1) The index page doesn't load, there are warning message something as follow
------------------------------------------------------
strtotime() [http://php.net/function.strtotime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone
...
------------------------------------------------------
Solution 1) add this line to the <cakephp.directory>/app/config/core.php: ------------------------------------------------------
date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Kuala_Lumpur');
------------------------------------------------------
-> This problem seems like happen to PHP 5 onwards ??
Of course you can add different timezone, checks this out list of supported timezone

Problem 2) Index page does not contains any css, logo and etc.
Solution 2) Update the DocumentRootin the Apache httpd.conf, point it to the <cakephp.directory>, so, in my case, it will be as follow:
------------------------------------------------------
DocumentRoot "D:/Apps/Apache2.2/htdocs/cakephp_1_3_6"
------------------------------------------------------
Please note this: !! CAKEROOT should NOT be sub-directory of the Apache htdocs !!

Yeah, it is strange for me that I finally found out I have to move the CakePHP application out from the Apache default document root, which is the htdocs. But as I reference from this website, the colorful page only shown up in my local after I move it out.

So, my main reference to setup CakePHP are:
1. The CakePHP cookbook
2. Troubleshooting

I think next will be CakePHP with MySQL, hopefully I managed this by next week :)

Good luck!

PHP & Apache HTTP Server - Installation

I heard & known that the PHP was very popular technology for rapid web development. Maybe it's good just to get my brain fresh with some technology alternative, so I decided to start the learning.

OK, first mission is to make PHP works with Apache HTTP server. As usual, since these are open source projects, a lot of information out there, but very hard to find all in one place, and usually the version might be outdated when we are looking for it.

My environment is as follow:
1. Windows XP
2. Apache HTTP server v2.2: Downloaded the httpd-2.2.17-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8o.msi from here Apache: 2.2
3. PHP Version 5.3.4: Downloaded the php-5.3.4-Win32-VC6-x86.msi from here PHP for Windows
- Please note the installer that will work for Apache is VC6

Install the Apache HTTP server before PHP, then we can take advantage of the PHP installer that it will auto-configure the necessary details to make the Apache web server to serve PHP.

There are my local installed directory structures:
1. Apache: D:/Apps/Apache2.2, I will refer this as <apache_web_server>
2. PHP: D:/Apps/PHP, I will refer this as <php.directory>

To verify the PHP can be serve by Apache:
1. Go to <apache_web_server>/htdocs
- create a file name: phpinfo.php
- Put this line of code to the phpinfo.php file: <?php phpinfo(); ?>

2. Start the Apache web server

3. In browser, type this: http://localhost/phpinfo.php
- you should see a page as follow:

PHP loaded succesfully!

And this is the Apache httpd.conf for the section related to PHP. All lines are written by the PHP installer, exceptAddType application/x-httpd-php .php, I added it manually then it works:

------------------------------------------------------
#BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL
PHPIniDir "D:/Apps/PHP/"
LoadModule php5_module "D:/Apps/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

#END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL
------------------------------------------------------

And here are some references I used to troubleshooting problem, good luck!
1. <php.directory>/install.txt
2. Setting up CakePHP with Apache

In fact, I think the 2nd reference is more useful for next blog.
