Beach and Dog
2007-10-22 04:51:00 It’s good to be able to doze off at around 1am and sleep right till after 8am. I suppose the two main factors are – I slept for less than two hours the day before and I managed to doze off before the air-conditioner “warmed-up”.We had a late beach outing yesterday and Guoxiong was supposed to meet me up for some serious discussion about the forum, and he was late for more than two hours. He came with Yali and his dog who was as strong as my ex dog - Jack. Our discussion was cut off half when Mingfa asked me to join in the game and in fact I had already typed out the few discussed points days ago.I finally got to enjoy the “privilege” of a dog owner at the beach; while I was taking care of Guoxiong’s dog, girls were closer. I didn’t bring Jack along to the beach last time due to transportation problem. Along the way to the washroom, a girl commented the dog’s tail could be used as a brush, which seemed quite true.I would still prefer Jack after all; he knew how to e... More About: Beach
Distracted Again
2007-10-19 04:17:00 I can never understand my family members especially my mum. Whenever she’s in the living room or even kitchen, she will switch on the television set to distract me from my work; and basically she doesn’t even know what the show or programme is about.Seriously, working at home is absolutely okay except that you need to have a really clean and personal corner. My house is too packed that I have to work in the living room and that’s too bad for me.There are times when I’m scripting my website and bugs occur with the television set suddenly on; worst still, it’s a live site in production already.This inspires me to work hard for my dream to at least own my own room, having a clean and neat desk, perhaps a stylish glass one.Needless to set a target too high since it will definitely take me so long before I can get out of poverty when I don’t even have a job now, I shall first learn to overcome all the irritation meanwhile.Come to think of it, who knows in near future I can ne...

Marina South Pier at 6.30am
2007-10-16 04:19:00 Marina South Pier just right before daylight was really tranquility.I finally achieved my dream ever since quitting my previous job. A month later, on this early morning after I tried to sleep too early at 12+am and woke up at around 3am, I couldn’t get back to sleep, and decided to fulfill my dream no matter what.Probably it was due to the air conditioner problem. I could stand cold but not for a long period of time and usually when I went to bed late, I wouldn’t have much of suffer to bear. My family loved to abuse the air-conditioners no matter how poor we were and often I still had to listen to my mum’s grumbling about lack of money when she didn’t even try to cut down on cost.I held on to 5am before I started packing up to leave half an hour later. There were a few measures taken like studying the weather before leaving and avoid stepping on dark spots in case my shoes got wet. However, I forgot to bring a few dollars with me in case I needed to drench my thirst or take... More About: Marina
Sleep Early, Wake up Early
2007-10-14 06:13:00 I did an impressive improvement of sleeping at 3am and waking up at 8am. It took me some sweat to finally meet up with Irwin.We had breakfast at MacDonald’s and proceeded to Telok Blangah Drive to chat. As it was pouring upon reaching the bus-stop, we sat there to chill up and the oncoming buses put in dizziness each time they braked. We crossed over the overhead bridge and camped under a shelter where it was cosy enough for both of us.Irwin did his reflection on my current situation and also implanted some good logics into my brain. From then on, I started thinking about income, expense, asset and liability. I needed the drive from him, which might bring me out of my poverty and foolish life. Girls were considered as liability as well.Jingkun finally called me in the mid afternoon. I supposed I was the last person to be informed again. By the time I reached Stephen’s condominium at Anchor Rage, most of them had already arrived and playing inside the pool. I only got to soak mys... More About: Wake , Sleep , Early , Wake up , Earl
Website, Volleyball and Supper
2007-10-12 02:46:00 I woke up to see the clock, expecting it would be 3pm like usual. To my surprise, it was around 6pm already.I went back to the computer right away to see disappointment that there was problem with the FTP file transfer which I left it to work before I went off.I was busy with the beach volleyball website (http://beachvolleyball.sg), trying to integrate the forum with the gallery properly. I went through the help forum to seek for the solution and finally there was progress but I had to wait for the FTP transfer for further action.Suddenly, I realised there was volleyball game and luckily it was at 8pm instead of 7pm. My lunch was on the table and luckily it was still edible.I could feel my head spinning at the start of the game. It was pretty crowded and we had to form three teams, which was good since everyone had a chance to be left out of the court, unlike sometimes that only a few of us had to be sacrificed. We had rare guest like Meishan and I supposed it was the first time I c... More About: Website , Volleyball , Supper
Fourth Filming
2007-10-10 04:25:00 I did filming for the fourth time yesterday. The show was “Tian Tang Niao”. I got to know Tommy who got to click well with me. We acted together with Huang Shinan and Hongrong, who were very professional. All the staffs including the producer were very nice people.Huang Shinan was the friendliest actor so far whom I had met throughout my trip there for he greeted us politely, unlike others who were cold. He was a workaholic and seemed to do more than only acting, which was very admirable. On the bus, he taught both of us more about acting. SiLlYDuMb @ http://sillydumb.com More About: Filming
One Click for Two
2007-10-09 10:21:00 Gilbert recommended me to get A4Tech mouse. I checked the internet and saw that all the new series had an extra button on the left click button beside the wheel. It was for the purpose of “no more double click”, so that you could open a file with a single click. That was really creative but it reminded me of my Logitech mouse.I don’t really need the button since double clicking has been a habit but it seems that I can’t kick the new feature away. It appears randomly on my Logitech mouse and I have been slowed down by it for more than two weeks already.Imagine when you are dragging a file to another folder halfway, the file drops and soon you realise you are opening another file which your mouse pointer is at. Sometimes when I close a file, the file or folder behind will be closed as well. Highlighting texts is a major issue as well. So much time has been wasted.I came across the Logitech mouse which Kachua recommended but I didn’t buy it. However, A4Tech mouse seemed so ra... More About: Click
Belated Farewell Dinner
2007-10-07 01:31:00 My belated farewell dinner was finally up on Friday, together with Terry, Ashqi and Weiyeow’s. I was very disappointed that both Siewming and Liza didn’t join us, especially Liza, for she had tasted much nuisance from a few of the assholes.I was given a card, an umbrella, a tube of sunblock lotion and a blue towel; these people were so sweet and cute to come up with the ideas as they thought my current umbrella was lousy and that I frequented the beach often. However, they didn’t realise that I would probably be unbearable to use the new and pretty items.I heard there were quite a number of changes, which could be considered as improvements but I was thinking if some people were doing kind just for the sake of gaining popularity. I simply hoped that the remaining people would have better lives.Anyway, I didn’t get to take individual pictures with them since I was sitting at the centre by the wall and it was extremely difficult to get out. Ashqi was the lucky guy who got to t... More About: Dinner , Farewell , Fare , Well
Server is up but not Really Up
2007-10-05 23:16:00 I was so amazed by the server management company who took more than twenty-four hours to reformat and install the server. For the past few days ever since the big chaos was created, I had been fighting against the downtime of the FTP. For a couple of times, I even woke up by the thought of the server would be ready.I have somehow lost trust in IT companies due to their efficiency. I believe the entire market in the world is like a disgusting company which I have worked in, that manpower shortage has somehow been delaying the delivery of work for clients.Some companies are considered well-established but they may not provide the results.I have been really hardworking for the past few days and persisted to work on PHP. The server has also been determined to slow down my work by not letting me log in.Luckily, I’m not the one paying for the server and the management.

So Damn Free
2007-10-05 07:50:00 Different people have different expectations from me. Each wants a piece of my time, thinking that I’m totally free and idling every day.It’s tremendously exhausting to explain what I’m doing each day when I receive doubts that I can never have enough energy to debate.The main reason why I’m home during weekdays is to follow my plan to study and do up websites but people can’t see it. When I was working those for those stingy assholes, I didn’t have enough time to expand myself; when I’m home, so many people are distracting from my work as well.It’s useless to write down everything online since most people don’t care and moreover, I don’t have the time anymore.It’s totally depressing when you can never get to see the person you want to meet but some others are expecting more from you.

Reformatting Web Server
2007-10-01 20:39:00 The server management company picks the best time early in the morning to reformat the server. It will probably take two hours and after which, we have to transfer all files back to the server, including the databases. It gives me the excuse to stay up till daylight again.Mike: “after this format...we will have a faster, more stable, security server !”During the process, however, all the sites will be down. Even for my blog, which is currently hosted in Blogspot or Blogger, will be affected since a couple of scripts and files are linked from my main site.

Foolish Night
2007-09-29 00:05:00 I did the stupidest thing hours ago. Weiyeow asked me to find candles for him and it was already 9.30pm, I got panic as Cherie might be disappointed.Since Payar Lebar was near Chung Cheng High School Main and it could be Ruoci’s territory, I tried calling her to seek for help.I scroll down my contact list and typed “Payar” and realised I did it wrongly. After erasing it, I typed her nick instead of nick. “She” picked it up fast and I thought her friend was holding to her phone. After repeating my name so many times and “she” could not get it, “she” told me to hold on. I checked my phone and realised I should be calling “Ruoci” instead.After hearing suggestions from Ruoci, I went to the Singpost building’s NTUC supermarket but the lady told me they used to sell it. I went to Watson’s but had no luck. Just as I was standing outside Coffeebean, I made a call to Weiyeow in case he had already gotten the candles. As he told me he had not found it, I went inside ...

Dear Friends
2007-09-27 20:46:00 We get to know more friends but each day we get lonelier and lonelier. This is the fact which not many get to realise it.How many friends can always remember you when they are out there having fun? How many friends have been telling you that they are busy and yet you find out they can afford to spend time out with others? How many friends can tell you that they have to stay at home because they are broke but you know they continue to enjoy splendid meals or celebration with others?How busy can a person be that you never deserve even a date for donkey years?You treat them as great friends but they probably treat you as a hi-bye friend or simply someone who they can seek help online for their convenience.You keep quiet.There are also friends who have braved through thick and dirt with you for years; until one day you realise they have been treating you well, but not any better than the rest. At times, you are naively a replacement, or someone to fill a position whenever needed; you ha... More About: Friends
