A GeeKend..

30 07 2007

As usual.. Another weekend geekend spent as a GeeK..


This guy may look like a toy, but it is one important tool when applying screen protector.. To blow away dusts.. Well, I use it to clean my camera..

When I reached work on Saturday, I was shock to see this on the table..


FULL HD on a notebook.. OOHLALA!!!


HDMI Output, S Video In/Out and Analogue RGB.. What more do you need, besides a direct cable to the Astro dish?


It even comes with AV panel for easier access to AV mode… Design of the AV control is similar to the iPod’s jogwheel.. Don’t you think so?


I shall introduce you to the Sony Vaio Fz15G(priced at Rm 5488).. This is one almost complete multimedia laptop.. With addition of Rm4500, you’re definitely complete.. At Rm 9988, you will get the Fz18G, very similar specs and design with additional of Blu-Ray support..


A robust Multimedia Machine… That’s the size as compared to an ordinary business card..


Thicker than a one-inch-thick toast.. It’s almost as thick as the height of a conventional SD card..


Weighing at 2.7kg, you’ll probably want to consider a stroller bag for it while travelling.. (thickness compared to a 20cents coin)

It is definitely one Desktop Replacement Machine… Hook it up to a Plasma TV, and watch your HD movies.. It will surely be damn ONs!!!! This is the BIGGEST notebook I’ve ever fell in love with (it was always a 12.1″ or 11.1″).. Gahhhhh!! I only can afford to dream..


Martin Fields.. The famous screen protector manufacturer from Japan… I would say it is the greatest!! Smooth like DAMNNN!!!!!!!! Damn smooth even if you’re writing with a mechanical pencil and not a stylus.. (That’s what I do in college)… Anyway.. What’s in the picture is actually a retractable usb-sync-cable for PDA’s.. Even so, it is a little overpriced compared to others..


Taken from home.. Was honored to manage and upload some music into my sister’s iPod.. I will need one soon as I’m really looking forward at the Nike+.. But I’m not an Apple supporter.. Sony Walkman’s music quality beats iPod’s by far… Sadly, iPod did a collaboration with Nike and I find it very useful fun to use, and due to hype.. I think I have to MUST own one as soon as possible.. Nike+, HERE I COME!!!





Dada Daa Daa Dadadada… (Simpsons Theme)

28 07 2007

Yup.. I watched Simpsons today.. Well.. I will get to that later..


Am I allergic to air conditioner or what? Whether it’s at college or in my room.. I’ll sneeze and have flu until the air-cond is turned off..


This was what one of my classmates did during lab… Instead of hooking the wires into the circuit fromt he PC’s parallel port, he made his own Wire-Bots…


It has been raining every evening.. Snapped that yesterday..

Today..

Watched Simpsons at 3pm after ending my class at 1pm..


What we rocked today.. Terence in Bandaids and me in the Red Puma X Pink Laces X Pink Socks.. It’s a first pink day for me..


Watched Simpsons @ Cathay Cineleisure with a bunch of peeps which includes Terence, Sook Teng, Thiam Beng, Michelle, Karl Son, Zhen Quan, Rosanne, Brian, and Jun King… Ooopps.. Sorry bout the chewing gums on the ticket.. I didn’t know where to stick it to during the movie as Wrigley’s were giving out free gums at the entrance..


After the movie we had D’OH-nuts.. Hahaha.. As influenced by Homer..

The movie was great.. Laughing from the beginning where they showed the 20th Century Fox thingy till the end where they showed the credits.. It was hilarious.. Okay.. I’m not the guy who would give spoilers to others.. But if you do wanna know.. You can ask me personally.. My advice is go watch yourself and laugh the hell out..

After donuts, we headed over to Murni ss2 for dinner.. Then hang around at Thiam Beng’s house then my house, then Ramly Burger and met Marianne (who said my uncombed hair ugly!!) at the infamous Ramly Burger @ Ss2/Damansara Bomba.. Woohlala.. The burger is great.. Ooops… I have another one downstairs.. Wahahah..

After that, headed over to Thiam Beng’s house again to eat burger and watched Tokyo Drift as it was shown on HBO… Then.. Finally I’m back home… Off to eat my burger.. D’oh!!

Pictures today were snapped with Canon Ixus 850is..





A basket of satisfaction..

24 07 2007

Yesterday was Karl Son’s birthday.. Celebrate at TGI Fridays.. As usual.. He’s gotto make a speech and yada yada…


While giving his speech on the table..


Different colours and different sizes..  Zong Liang got back from god-knows-where-he-went…

After dinner.. Headed over to the newly opened 7-11 near Paris Restaurant to try-out the new Ramly Burger stall… It was closed.. Therefore, headed over to Bomba for the ever popular Ramly Burger.. It was open after so many donkey years.. Wooohooo.. Had two burgers.. Ayam Special and Daging Biasa.. Ooohlala.. One word.. Satisfaction!!! After that, a sneaker fiend of mine (gingerfish) came over to show me some new stuffs he got.. Ooohlala.. I’m venomed.. Ugggh…

Another satisfying story today is that I had a great 2 hours game of basketball.. It was great.. Should I say I was on form or were they just fluke.. Hahahaha.. Had never played like that in many months or years…  Never stopped.. Played around 7-8 games back to back.. Didn’t even drink water.. Foohlala.. It felt so good.. Came home at around 8pm.. Drenched with sweat..  It was hella good day of basketball today..

I’m suppose to study soon later… Damn… I better take a rest now before I go on..





Time Wasted..

20 07 2007

This space is supposed to be filled with outdoor pictures.. Of nature, and maybe the night view of the Eyes Of Malaysia.. Due to my laziness, the plan was cancelled.. Initially the plan was to head over to Lake Garden or Butterfly Farm for some shots, sadly I ended up sleeping on my bed.. From 2.30 till around 7.30pm.. Yup.. That was really long.. Hahahaha.. 5hours just went down the drain..


My gadgets of yesterday and today.. Phones, Cameras and a bluetooth music player..


Old Nokia Lithium-Ion batteries.. Can anyone tell me where I can dispose these properly?


Batteries.. It is never enough, even if it is rechargeable…


The bluetooth music player which I only use it when I’m jogging.. It was the first music player which can answer your phone calls, but if you’re comparing to what they have in the market today.. This sony ericsson will be in shame..

All shots were taken from Canon Ixus 850is..





Meet my new friend.. HDR..

19 07 2007

Few days ago, I was introduced to HDR thanks to eman… Now.. I can’t stop taking pictures that way…

What is HDR? “HDR is a set of techniques that allow a far greater dynamic range of exposures (i.e. a large range of values between light and dark areas) than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDR is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to the deepest shadows.” Info via wikipedia..


That is my first.. Still in the progress of learning..

Anyway.. Yesterday.. It was another day at college…


In the electronics lab.. We learned about cables and ports..


We learned how to connect the internal parts of a 9pin serial port..


And this is how it looks like after getting it soldered..

Headed over to 1utama after class.. Hang around for about 4-5 hours.. Then stay awhile as Andrew celebrates his birthday at Itallianies..


While waiting for them to arrive.. Hang out at the lounge of 1Utama near Uparkson..


Cze Wien brought THIS.. Which belongs to her sister..


And obviously I can’t help but to do this.. (that’s also because cze wien do not know how to use that besides Auto..)


Taken from my camera…

What’s from the EOS 300D..


The models that night… Which I get to experiment the EOS 300D on..


This is my favourite.. Hahahahaha… What should I say to this dude? Gay or Poser?


This is Cikgu Leow.. A part time teacher in Yuk Chai Primary school.. How cool is that? Hahaha..

HDR Taken Today..


It was really windy at that point…


At around 7pm.. The clouds are pretty awesome..





Streething Swapmeet 2007..

17 07 2007

I’m trying to get more photos to post up here.. There is always something that is bothering me.. Either test, bad weather or I’m just tired lazy..

As I wen through my pc, looking at photos.. I found out that I have not posted pictures of Streething Swapmeet 2007…


Most of the sneakers..


Unpack these baggages which were hand


Singapore’s Leftfoot and Malaysia’s Streething crew at work..


From left…


To right..


Medicom “Med”-ness..


A view from the other end..


Woohoo!! J-Rods!! My favourite P-rods of all time!! Cheoqut the Jordan logo on the tongue..


Both my grails.. The hUf dunks and Stash’s Air Max 95..


Adidas X Nbhd(neighborhood) Gazelle Berlin..


Most of you should know this one.. Adidas Top Secret..


The original Air Jordan from it’s actual years.. Crazy!! Some are older than me..

KICKS YOU WILL NEVER SEE ON THE STREETS!!


Some crazy trios… Wu Tang Dunk Hi, FLOM (For Love Or Money) Dunk Hi, Iron Maiden Dunk Hi… The prices for these are extremely Hi!! You can buy car with these 3 pairs.. The FLOMs are on eBay now at USD$15000.. So yea.. Maybe a pair alone, you can buy a pretty decent car..


Air Force 1 Playstation (released to friends and family only.. extreme rare!!) and the Alphanumeric Pro-B..


Deftones Dunk Hi (on top) and Lebron Dunks.. The Lebron Dunks worth around USD$845 where the Deftones Dunk Hi Pro are about USD$2500..


These are Dunk Hi and Dunk Low by graffiti artist Eric Haze.. The dunk low is around USD$ 400.. Both are limited to a thousand pairs if I’m not wrong..


Nike Air Max 1 Amsterdams and Rbk Alife.. One of my favourite Rbks, it feels just like a tennis ball..


All these HYPE Sneakers.. No one expected all of these would be at the exhibition… Trust me.. These shoes belongs to ONE local dude..





A walk in my neighborhood..

14 07 2007

After college, and lepak-ing alone at 1Utama…


Figured it was really sunny for 6pm, which is great for snapping some shots..


Decided to walk around the neighborhood with my camera.. That dude was above my opposite neighbors’ house..


Went to the route I usually go for a jog.. Canopies along the trail..


A little papaya tree in the making..


Birds chirping..


Aim high ‘drop’ low…


Bougainvilleas..


Now this is definitely FRUITFUL!!


Premature Hibiscus..


Little things that got my attention.. Some are pretty..


and some are thorny..


How old are you Mr. Tree? (My mum asked me where did I go, when I showed her this picture.. She must have thought I went into a rain forest..)


Simple and pure..


These were from my home.. More bougainvilleas..


The concrete garden of my home…

That’s all from my wonderful 500metres journey away from home.. (Might blog other pictures from today other time..) So maybe you should start walking around your neighborhood.. You never know what good stuff you will find.. Though many did find me weird, some cars slowed down, some arse stared at me.. Well.. I had lotsa fun..





Puppy by the name Teddy..

12 07 2007

Since eman has cats on his blog.. I decided I should have dogs on mine.. Hahahha.. Finally, my aunt allowed my cousins to own a puppy.. My sister is another one craving to own one too.. Looks like she won’t get hers as my mum do not like fury pets any pets…. Hahahaha.. Anyway.. They got a beagle, from a friend.. It was a young pup.. A real young one..

So yea.. Everyone in the family was sort of “excited” about the dog.. Okay.. Maybe it’s just both my cousins and my sister.. My mum, sis and I headed over to their home at Subang, hours ago to have a look at their new pup..

So.. Let the pictures do the talking..

That dude is quite cute, because he’s still young and the legs are kinda weak it seems.. He walks like Jackie Chan in the Drunken Master movie..

Looks like my sister is really eager to own one.. Hahahaha.. Will wish her all the best…

Shots of my favorites..

9 07 2007

Today.. I’m speechless..


This is how I write my name to be different from others.. Simply because I know what is individuality..


This should be my hair..


I love all my shoes.. And this is one of the latest addition to my small collection..


Simple shoes may drive me nuts.. Especially white on whites..


I’d always wanted a Sony.. From their tiny notebooks to their superb music players which will bring iPod to shame.. Their price tags are pretty hefty though.. (This is the best bokeh I’ve ever got..)


These are my O2’s in used.. Both are powered by Windows because I am simply not smart enough without a smartphone..


I can be as loud as these Altec Lansing speakers.. I love those mesh grills, don’t you like them?


That’s my favorite colour.. And WOOHOO!! Sweets!!


Air Max 95 and Green.. What more can I say?


When I’m bored.. I take pictures of anything.. Including walls..
