Heaven & Hell

Saw this during a launch party. Give it a thought and you’ll find that it’s pretty true how Heaven and Hell sound like on Earth.

One of the best moments in life.

Today I would like to share about a wonderful moment that I had in life.

Few years ago, during the month of Febuary. I had the luxury to fly back to Miri for a week. And so happen I get to catch Valentine’s day with a dear friend. She’s someone I kinda had feelings for but we’re never attached or plan to be.

Anyway, the wonderful moment happens on Feb 14th’s night. I brought her up the hill near my house and walked down to the ledge of the cliff where we sat on the rocks. While we were enjoying the dark sky with bright lighted stars and cool breezy winds brushing our hair as we hold each others hand and hug tightly to keep each other warm. A magical moment happened. Both of us saw a shooting star zoom pass our vision. It’s simply astonishingly lovely!

That… is one of the greatest moments I’ve encountered in life.

Sony Ericsson W800i rocks my world!

31st of August. After a long ass decision making I’ve finally decided I’ll get SE W800i over all the 3G phones. Face it, 3G phones are still in their first phase and darn they are all bulky and ugly alright!

SE W800i… Seriously this is a phone that is worth every cent you paid for. SE did a good job in providing all the necessary needs to make a good phone + Walkman function which allows you to use the phone just like any portable audio/video player easily + 2.0 MegaPixel Auto Focus camera that snaps pictures just like standard camera. There are much more functions like radio, video recording function but having the top 3 gadgets all roll into one body and plus provided by Sony Ericsson. Nothing could possibly go wrong!

It’s a phone that will provide you not only fun but functionality too! The Walkman never fails to entertain me with clarity in sound whenever I need to listen to my favourite playlist anywhere, anytime! I can even use it in flight with the handphone turned off and leaving the walkman on. Watch videos in MP4 or 3GP formats that helps keep my friends and I entertained. And best of all, capture every moment in life with superior quality of pictures!

“Walk the W800i, talk the W800i.”

The number that you’ve dialed, is not in service.

Has anyone ever gotten into a situation where you’re trying hard to have an on-going conversation after knowing someone well enough? It leads you to believe that it seems that you know each other so well that you don’t know what other new topics to stir up?

Well, personally I think there’s no such thing like knowing a person too well. How can you justify that you really know them? People constantly change… everyday! The sun can set a million times down that horizon and it will never look the same. If conversations were to stop after being close and knowing them, does this means that our parents would stop communicating with each other after a certain time? Or are they still trying to understand each other every moment they are still talking?

I find that conversation breakdowns are often because one of them lose interest in talking. Fed up with the whole thing and just don’t want to connect anymore. If any side were to constantly come up with ideas, argumentative and interesting topics every day, every hour, every minute… I’m sure there wouldn’t be a problem with communicating. But if one side decides to give up then all hope is lost.

Communication isn’t a simple thing. It requires lots of experience and knowledge.

“Learn to talk.”

Dating The Untouchables (for men)

  • Women like power. Show your guts and self-confidence. Someone has to be able to protect her when she is like the only flower among the bees.
  • Women like charisma. If you can make a woman laugh, you probably can make her do anything. They wouldn’t want someone who is just good-looking without a sense of humour.
  • Women like conversations. Stop starring at her but instead talk to her. They most probably get hit on very often to be sleep with. Think different.
  • Women like respect. Be cool, don’t drool. Respect her as a woman not as a sex object. Be a gentleman.
  • Women like praises. Tell her that you admire her. Not only just the looks but her. Compliment them on the most subtle actions. Like when she twitch her lips.
  • Women like observations. Women know themselves. Never ignore her looks. Say how matching her scarf is with her dress.
  • Women like IQ. As much as you want to sleep with her, she doesn’t. They prefer someone who will help them grow.
  • Women like freedom. Trust her as much as you want her to trust you. It’s common for her to get pick up and hit on most of the time. Be nice to the guy and he will be nice to you. Jealous, don’t be.

I’m a baby magnet!


Oh yes it is. It happens all the time. And I have two great significant stories to back it up!

1. I was waiting for a bunch of dudes at KLCC. So I went up to the Signature Food Court to sit. As usual, I would always take the row of tables nearest to the windows. After finding the right spot, I sat down and sip on my Vanilla Coke.

While sipping, I noticed that I was being stalked by this little baby girl (pictured above) sitting not far from me. Seriously she is! From the very moment that I sat down on that chair, she has her eyes on me non-stop! Not even when the mother tried to feed her. She kept looking and looking and looking till her mummy couldn’t stand the distraction I was giving her baby. Her mum decided to turn the chair of her baby girl towards her.

You think that helped? Haha.. no! She turned 180 degrees just to continue starring at me. And what’s worst? She ain’t gonna eat anymore. So there… what a magnet!

2. Just before I left Murni’s @ SS2. This adorable baby girl caught my attention. Not only me actually. 2 of my other friends who were eating with me. She was reluctant to stay put until she caught my eye. Naturally I wave and gave her the nicest smile. Yeah, she waved at me of course.

It didn’t just stop there. The adorable baby girl looked at me and laugh. Waved even more and kept looking. Her mum was feeding her white rice. She too didn’t quite enjoy it. Still she looked at me from time to time and I even make funny faces and flying kisses. Both of us somehow developed a special connection in that short period of time. Her care-takers are all shocked at her behavior. Then her auntie, I think. Brought her close to our table and interacted with us. Her name is Victoria. Suits her just perfectly.

I went to pay for our table and her aunt let her stand on my chair. We played on for a little while longer as her aunt was still trying to feed her white rice. I gave her a bar of Kit Kat and she is so happy she gave me a high 5 plus flying kisses as we go.

Above is the picture of the first baby girl I encountered. I didn’t get to take the picture of the second baby girl because Natalie forgotten!

“I love babies!”

1998 Ferrari 456M GTA, period.

There it is, right in front of my eyes. Super black Ferrari 456M GTA, the car that I’m going into for a ride.

65 degrees V12
5,500cc
6 gears
442bhp @ 6,250rpm
550nm @ 4,500rpm
0-100KM/H in 5 seconds
300KM/H Top speed
one awesome driver

Getting into the Ferrari and just seating onto the seat is already exciting enough. The seat is fully automated and fits so snugly and feels so comfortable. With the belt strapped on after admiring the interior, I’m ready to go.

At least 30 people were surrounding this car before we start the engine. As the engine purrs to life, they all automatically make way for the prancing horse. The sound of this machine is just enigmatic. Without further ado, he released the clutch and off we sprang. After a few corners out of the congested city heart of Kuala Lumpur streets we finally reached the highway.

The way the V12 roars as it climbs up to 7,000rpm is already heart pounding enough. The awesome ka-ching sound made by the metal-gated transmission every time you shift is just as breath-taking as the force made after the shift you’re experiencing. Overtaking with this beast is just unexplainable. Anytime, anywhere without hesitation this monster would just stick your body to the seat even though it’s 3rd gear. As we pull up at the traffic lights, you can see that all eyes are on you. You devil, you!

Green it turns, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh… I swear I left my heart back at the traffic lights! Within seconds 100KM/H it hits on the speedometer and it goes onwards to 160KM/H before we had to slow down because of the cars upfront. Even on a hill climb, it zooms like the road is flat! Cornering with this baby is just so sweet. The advancement of the traction and power from the engine pulls you through the bend like a roller-coaster, only better. Getting it to 260KM/H isn’t hard too. 5th gear alone can already pull you all the way up there and still the car is super stable. Whereas the Supra I previously sat in seems to be floating when it reaches 240KM/H.

All and all. The fun has to end. We pull up at his house for a change of ride. Scion xA. Punchy little car with awesome styling cues. We went off nearby for a drink before we call it a night.

This is seriously by far the best ride I’ve been in. And I’m bloody sure that there will be more rides in the Ferrari in the future.

“Ferrari, ride it to believe it.”

So jealous!

Ask yourself, why do you have to hate someone even he or she did not lay a finger or say a word to you in the beginning? Jealous? This can be applied into lots of situations.

For example : You didn’t like your new colleague because he gets more attention from your boss. You grew to hate him when you realize that he’s even better than you in anything. Worst still, he’s scoring with your girl!

Ok, that might be the worst situation anyone could’ve been in. I’m sure you would be swearing his ass off while throwing darts on his photo. Now here, let me give you another scope. Why don’t you try to turn that hatred off and try to get to know him. Maybe if you two get along, both of you might reach higher standards in work and he won’t probably score with your girl.

  • Fear. Jealousy is a form of fear too. You were afraid of the situation going out of hand. It’s easier when you allow yourself to stop worrying. (He most probably ain’t scoring with your girl.)
  • Trust. This is an important factor to take note. If you can’t trust yourself, certainly you cannot trust others. Remember, actions speak louder than words. Don’t say you trust your partners and still showing signs that you’re jealous.
  • Weak. When you’re jealous, you’re just showing them your weakness. You just gave them a good point to attack your vulnerability till you drop yourself.
  • Power. People who are jealous are often seeking for power. Power gives you great form of command and control over another person. Don’t be such a jerk off.

Jealousy brings no joy. Think of it as a butterfly in your hand. The more jealousy you have the harder you squeeze. Let your jealousy subside and you start letting it flutter around you with grace.

“Ain’t worth the hassle being jealous.”

Whoopsie… ex-files.

I’ve never gotten like super close with any of my ex. And damn well no intimacy after that. No intentions whatsoever. You see… the reason they are known as ex is because you draw a big X over their name. Indicating it’s broken, unusable. So look forward, don’t turn back and bite that sour fruit again. It’s so yesterday!

But then sometimes some people tend to do it anyway. So here are some situations and ways I think you should deal with it.

  • The coincidence. Oh yeah. It’s a beautiful day. With the striking sun out of sight and breezy breeze brushing your face. Nothing else could go wrong… something caught your eye. Your ex-girl/boyfriend is walking towards you with a new soul mate. Now, be nice! Act like you’re pleased to meet the other half even though it hurts. You would look bad if you showed any sign that you’re still upset over the whole thing. Don’t talk for too long and make sure you say how nice it is to meet up with them both and then excuse yourself. Focus, focus… eye on a better half for yourself and let them turn green.
  • The bed scene. Yes, it was an accident… hit me baby one more time! You did tell yourself over and over again not to cross that line but some how it happened. Trust me… either one of you would be thinking that it’s just a casual sex session. So what I say is. Keep yourself occupied with something else. This is a bad habit to keep up with.
  • The sound of wedding bells. You picked up your phone nonchalantly thinking that someone nice is calling you. It’s your ex-girl/boyfriend’s number. You answered it hoping that it should be no big of a deal. To your surprise,your ex is getting married. Guess what, you’re on the invitation list. Hmm… if the event brings bitterness to you then I guess you should skip the wedding and go out with your friends to forget about the whole event. Only show up if you’re totally over it and you’re there to bless your ex.
  • I want you back. Oooo… sounds like a bliss? Think again. Stand firm on your ground. Re-check his/her quality. Has he/she become a better self? Why it didn’t work out before and would it work this time? Don’t accept just because you’re lonely, you needed a date or hearing I love you from him/her. Getting a second chance is something for him/her to work for. So work his/her ass off to get you back.

Get up and be loved once again!

This particular entry is specially written for those who are single or still not over with their recent sorrows. Stop weeping, put on that 100% confident outfit of yours, get a decent aura, say hi to the person in the mirror and get your ass back up in the field and play ball! If you’re really hopeless and lost, here I bundled 20 ways to heat up the season for either a red-hot fling or a long-lasting love. Godspeed!

  1. Recruit the new. A party or a night out would be fine. You need to get to know someone new through your friends. Also it’s much safer to date your friend’s friend.
  2. Fun is all you need. Go have a blast. When you’re not out in the wild with the thoughts of hunting something down, you might just be the hunted.
  3. Be occupied. Make sure your calender is pack with events! The more you do, the more chances you can grab hold of.
  4. Go dateless. You don’t need a date to go movies, beach party, bbq, house party and so on. Spin your spider webs. The special person might just get caught.
  5. Be yourself. Get comfortable. Relax and find inner peace. Love yourself and others will start loving you.
  6. Skip the bar. You don’t always have to be at a bar to get picked up. Try Starbucks or Coffee Bean for a change. The bookstore is another good choice too.
  7. Get connected. Get plug onto the world wide web. Start instant messages, e-mails and any means of communication.
  8. Read. Self-help books can help a lot in this area. Especially when you have no one to turn to, to ask for help.
  9. Make friends. Be bold. Try to make new friends and expand your circle of life.
  10. Don’t be shy. Guys or girls. It’s the 21st century! If you think that someone is good enough for you. Make it happen. Don’t let it pass you by like a dream.
  11. Make that change. Look into the mirror. Tell that person in the mirror to make that change. Be active in the society around you. You feel much better doing something better than nothing.
  12. A perfect plan. Plot the whole date out. Use all the right moves. Time, place and attitude.
  13. Another shot. Recruit your old friends. Those who are still single. Reach out for them and have a pot luck or sorts. There might be something that wasn’t there before.
  14. Pet-sit. Offer a helping hand if your friends needed you to take care of their flurry balls. Pets can be a good companion. They offer unconditional love.
  15. Go with blind dates. Don’t worry. This isn’t the last resort. Take all the chances you can find. Your friends just might be right with the perfect soul mate for you.
  16. Advertisements. This is fun. Post your personal details and stuff on the nearby store or a small corner on the papers or mags. Don’t think of it as cheap. I dare you to!
  17. Be a member. Find something you like and register as a member. The new activity you just picked up is gonna help you meet someone new this season.
  18. Search at the right places. If you’re looking for a fling, most probably a bar. A commited one, try the bookstore or the library instead. You can go by interest too. Like musicians can be found in music festivals. Church is also another great place.
  19. Go shop. Browse along the malls and you’ll get to know interesting people that might just be doing what you’re doing.
  20. Make a move. DO NOT WAIT!
